Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - October 11, 1875, Winnipeg, Manitoba Oct. 11, the pm boo . It is t.6 be regretted that the author Tho article upon the Public accounts in the last Issue the Standard had not discovered before he began his article what he confesses in the sen he cannot make head or Tail the subject for in that event in All probability his readers would have escaped Bor ing which under the loss Happy Circum stances has been inflicted and to should have Boon spared the work getting up this article for hip Especial enlighten ment. The Standard complains that the pub Lic accounts published Are not for Tho fiscal year ending on the 30lh june last we pics me. For Tho mation our contemporary solely for surely it cannot be such to any other person we will say that tic Public the Northern Pacific. The racing Public Haye been from time to and teed Tho Prog Raj is to disentangle the Northern Pacific Railroad company from the flesh Cial embarrassments which followed the .cc4 Baths a Jay Cooka m . .1873. It however Bui Side the parties interested have really understood the entire. Plan resurrection which was being worked out. The final act in the programme having now been accomplished the Dis Patch can give the Public Tho Gratifying intelligence that the Northern Pacific Railroad company is again on its feet and prepared to proceed without embarrassment growing out the past.

At Tho last session in to anticipate parliament by publishing that which had not in Tho nature things could not be Laid before it would have been Irrer Altir and unwarrantable. According to the act Cap. 11, 38 viet., the fiscal year closes on the 30th june therefore nil that parliament can demand the government in respect Public accounts is that those up to Tho then last 30th june be Laid before it which in Tho Case before us was the 30th june this also entirely disposes Tho com plaint that the published Public accounts Only cover eight months the fiscal year ending on the 30th june last. As we have indicated the government were under no obligations at the last session to bring Down any financial statement to a later period than june 30th 18t4 j bait As a matter Grace in addition to the detailed accounts the previous fiscal term the govern ment did bring Down an abstract up to the very Day parliament sat. Apper our Potempo Rary would have had them bring t Down for four month s in Advance. This May seem ludicrous to Thomao who really know anything about such matters though in All probability our contemporary was in Good Earnest the Blunder being As is often said one Tho head and hot the heart in other words it was an ignorant and not a wilful Blunder. The Standard also complains because an abstract for each year the exist ence province finds place in the publication. This was done in response to an order parliament.
