PROVOKED SOME DISCUSSION
AMENDMENT TO ASSESSMENT ACT
INTRODUCED AT VICTORIA.
There Was Little Debate During the
Evening Session, Members Seem

Measures Speedily Disposed of.

Special Dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer
VICTORIA, Aug. 24.-Matters bucolic oc-
cuped the attention OF the legislature az
almost all OF the evening session. although
there was little debate. all of the mem
bers being Of the same opinion, with
perhaps one or two exceptions.
The chief commissioner OF lands and
works brought in bin TO provide for the
issue of crown grants to holders OF pre-
empted lands who had fallen into arrears.
by the payment of - per cent. Of the
amount due. This bin gave great salts
faction to the farmer members. as this
matter has been a burning one for long
time. 1t has been found that some OF
these men had contracted a liability which
they were unable TO meet and for years
such step as Is now taken has been
urged upon the government.
During the afternoon debate occurred
over the bill of the government to i'm
pose a tax of 5 cents a ton on the coal
output of the province This step was
announced in the speech from the throne
and was very favorably commented on
at the time as il was recognized as a
generous thing for Premier Dunsmuir
to do. as he is so heavily interested in
coal properties. II appears. however.
that while the province got this tax, the
tax on land and personal property will
be Withdrawn so that the accrued bene-
hit to the province win not be so large
as was at first believed IL is believed
also that il viii operate less 10 the detri-
ment of the premier's mines than 10
some of his competitors such as the
new New Vancouver Coal Company and
the Crows Nest Company both of which
ship more extensively TO California ports
than the premiers mines. The BILL how
ever, passed.
Provoked Some Discussion.
Another bill. which provoked some dis
cussion. was an amendment TO the as
sessment act. whereby lode mines the
profits Of which exceeds $5,000 yearly. are
subjected to a tax OF ? per cent. as Well
as placer mines producing over S2o00.
This is double what IL has been previ-
ously, and ELECTED a decided protest from
Smith Curtis. who held that 1t would
have a very bad effect on capital. and
also would he great hardship on small
mines which were Just beginning to ship.
The minister of finance however. holds
that the mines have not produced suf
ficlent revenue although curtis contends
that they provide two-fifths of the total
revenue OF the province.
