RESOLUTION OF NON CONFIDENCE.
Whereas, it has become an obvious
necessity that immediate action be
taken by Her Majesty's Government
to obtain such relief as is possible
for the country in the present disas-
trous financial crisis caused by the
withdrawal of the commercial advant-
ages which formed the consideration
in the Reciprocity treaty between this
country and the United States of
! America, and, whereas, the present
ministry have taken no action in the
matter and have formulated no ade
quate foreign policy:
Whereas, the decrease in values
and general depression in all branches
of business render it necessary to re-
duce the current expenses of the
Government and to find new sources
of revenue and to provide for the
more effective and economical appli-
cation of funds TO public improve
ments, and whereas, the Ministry
has not only failed to propose any
measures to meet the eXlgencies of
the times nor formulated any policy
for the coming period; but have I'M
warrantably delayed the business of
the House and have hindered the eff
forts of individual members to cur
tail the expenses of the public SER
vice;
Whereas, in order to regain our
commercial prosperity and TO take
the best advantage of our position
and resources TO secure general pros
perty it is necessary that the Mnis-
try should consist of representative
men who have the support of the
Legislature and the confidence of the
people, and who can, by allaying in
ternal strife and discord, secure
peace and harmony at home, and re-
spect and consideration abroad, now
therefore,
BE it Resolved, that the members
Of this Legislature do hereby express
their utter want of confidence in Her
Majesty's present Ministry.

the Importance of the subject de-

subject was an important one. He

and Rep, Kamau)la accepted the
