( no, 3240.) ipeech of his excellesct tbe high com-missiokeii, delivered to the legislative council at the opening of the session, on wednesday, the 4th day of march, 1896. 'gentlemen of the legislative council, before i proceed to the business of the day, it is right that i should make some allusion to the sad affliction which has recently befallen the family of her .majesty the queen, through the untimely death of her majesty's son-in-law prince henry of battenberg; an event which has elicited from all parts of her majesty's dominioiu- the most laui and affectionate expressions of sorrow and suuiiuuiy, in which cyprus has also joined. an extraordinait meeting of this council was summoned iu xovember last, during my absence in england. you were called together on that occasion for the purpose of passing an exceptional measure having for its object the suppi'.-sion of a band of cri– minals who by repeated acts of violence and bloodshed had kept a whole section of the country in a state of alarm and disturbance for many mouths. " the outlaws proclamation law," which was the result of your labours during that short session, not only empowered the executive govemment to put in force very stringent measures for the capture of these men, but also rendered it a penal offence on the part of any persou to afford them shelter or assiumce, after they 1;ad been by proclamation declared to be the common enemies of jll peaceable and law-abiding citizens. aided no doubt by the provisions of this law, the efforts of the police have at lengtli beeu successful, and the funtive outlaws who, during a career of crime which has lasted over twelve months, are believed to have committed no less than eleven murders, besides numerous otlier acts of violence, are now in custody and will speedily be brought to trial, i deiij to luihe this opportunity of doing justice to the conduct of the pouce in connexion with this matter. the pursuit of these fugitives has i.ccn a service of continual hardship, as well as of consider– able danger. in the mountainous country which ukv had to traverse, the tiooptis could move nowhere without l)eing observed ; and at the same tune they were constantly liable to sudden and unexpected attacks from behind co\ er. two of their numl)er lost their lives, and several were mor or less severelv wounded in the coni-se of the campaign. xo intelligent to assist the police in tracking the fugitives could be obtaiued from the vilhi-eis, who nevertheless mv' iiave kept them sup– plied'with food, clotliing ar.d ammunition. but notwithstanding these trying and discouraging conditions, the pursuit was maintiined rith unabated courage and activity: until at length, and after an encounter in which one of the cong of outlaws was shot dead, their capture was effected by a small com– pany cf police commanded by a native officer. the police have also succeeded in effecting the capture of alltliosj persons, to the number of fourteen, who have from time to time joined the outlaws, and have been associated with them in their crines. many arrests were likcvise m. ic for the offence of harbouring and n'sistiig the fngitivc"; and it is to be hoped that those viuagers wli'se timidity has hitherto induced them to side on all occa 'ons with the criminal and against the inw, will have heea taught bythe iunis!iin'nt rvliich l'-', - overiaken ilvse men and all connected with them, a ];-(iiig and salutary lesson. turning now to the retro-jvet of tlr: past yar, it is to be noted that the harvest of 195 compares un– favourably with those of the two preceding years. the receiver-general describes it as being far below an average harvest, in respect of all cereals except oats, the cultivation of vvhich lias, it b..m, incieased greatly during the last few year-. prices, i regret to say, continue to rule low; the price of caroubs has been lower in 1895 than has ever been known before; s») that a gross yield of 34,000 tons realised in money value 4,000 liss than the smalkr yield of 1894, and 18,0m) less than the much smaller yield, in quantity, of the year 1893. the wine crop was in most di?tricts larger than that of the previous year, but with little or no im– provement in prices. olives are desciil" 1 as having been a po ir crop, and there was a great diminution in the area of land uirl' r cotton, owing, i t is said, to the short rainfall in thc spring. of fruit. and garden produce generally, it is reported to mr that wlt'i the exception of oranges the crop was a good one: but that the prices obtained were in all cases bad. we are accustomed in cyprus to great fluctuditions from }tai- to year in the quantity of pi'oduce raised from the soil, and v.e know from experience that in au average of years a })i\tty uniform level may be looked for in this respect; but a persistent depression in prices i a most fonnidable difliculty, and one which must, if no remedial measurijs can be applied, have the effect of seriously crippling our finances. we have no means of influencing prices; and if these do not revive, our only hope of remedy lies in the development of the natural resources of the country, by whieh the avenge yearly production may be raised to a wiiit e{ualling or surpassing the most abundant harvests of msl veare. κυπριακη δημοκρατια2996 the cyprus gazette, march 13th, 1896. as with us, the piiecs" obtained for the produce raised has been steadily de-lir.iiig. this result has been obtidned in egypt chiefly by the extension of works of artificial: irrigation, by ine:u:s of which the loss occasioned by! the'fall in urices, esfciinatel at three millions sterling iiuaily, has heen li'ore than compensated by the an u' i j 1 i llcl i l l r f i . v*-0 ' . v / » - l x i j . a / l \ y u t i t l l a v v / x j j pvaju*.**.

and the council will not fail to recognize that in taking this matter up for enquiry, mr. chamberlain has unmis-takeably evinced his readiness to turn an attentive ear to any suggestions that are put before him for pro– moting the material welfare of the country. it must not be supposed that mr. medlicott's in– vestigations are in themselves a guarantee that works of irrigation will necessarily follow upon his report. those investigations are an indispensable first step, in the absence of which all speculations respecting the ntihty and profitableness of such works, are mere un– practical guess work. mr. medlicott's mission is a proof that the secretary of state has an open mind upon this question, and that he is desirous in the first place of ascertaining upon what foundation of facts and figures the expectations of those who advocate the construction of irrigation works upon a large scale, do actually rest. in the address to which i have just referred, the council spoke also of the necessity for improved means of communication, which in their opinion could best be effected by the construction of a railway. this question is indeed inseparable from the one which i nave already touched upon. increased production means increased traffic, and increased traffic both postulates and justifies improved means of internal communication; better roads, more bridges, and, when the expansion of trade requires it, a railway also. nor is it only by the extension of facilities for in– ternal communication that the trade and traffic of this island would be benefited and developed. cyprus is favourably situated for carrying on a large trade with the neighbouring countries in perishable goods, such as fruits and vegetables; and the establishment of regular and frequent steam communication with egypt is an object of the highest importance, and one which the government have under their serious consideration. the debate which took place in the house of com– mons last year upon the subject of the parliamentary grant for cyprus, gave rise here to a certain amount of popular agitation, which elicited from her majesty's government a renewal of the assurance, which had been given in the previous year, that there was no intention bf abandoning the administration of the island. a memorial was afterwards drawn up for presentation to her majesty's government, conveying the views of a portion of the inhabitants of the country, upon various matters of public interest and importance. this me– morial was transmitted to me when i was in london, and was duly forwarded to the secretary of state, by whom its contents are still under consideration. the estimates of revenue and expenditure for the coming year will be laid before you as soon as they have received the sanction of her majesty's govern– ment. i regret to say that the estimates of revenue are not favourable, and that, unless they should prove to be considerably exceeded, the close of the financial year will present a formidable deficit. when i last met you, the limassol flood disaster was fresh in our memories, and great anxiety was then expressed for the speedy execution of works to protect the town from a recurrence of this calamity. through the ready acquiesence of the secretary of state in the measures proposed, the necessary funds were provided at once and the works were carried out. they have i am glad to say already proved to be adequate for securing the objects for which they were designed. the fund for the relief of the sufferers by the flood reached a total of 2,132, and i am informed that with the exception of a small balance the amount has now been expended. the number of those who received relief from this source was 750. the measures adopted during the past two years for the prosecution of the locust campaign, with which the council expressed its satisfaction, will be repeated this year. the expenditure has been heavy, and in order to avoid trenching upon the balance to the credit of the locust fund, which it is desirable to keep intact, it has been found necessary to reimpose that portion of the tax which 'had been temporarily dis– continued. cholera has recently made its appearance in egypt, with the result of throwing into great disorder the service of steamers upon which our communication with foreign countries depends. i am considering how far it may be possible, so far as our own quarantine regulations are concerned, to reduce the inconvenience caused to trade without impairing their efficiency as a source of protection. in preparing for the legislation of the present session we have had before us, amongst other subjects, the question of establishing a school for the promotion of the silk industry coupled with provisions for the better regulation of the trade in silk-worm eggs ; the question of amending the field watchmen law ; the question of the valuation of immoveable property, and the question of compulsory registration ; the amend– ment of the laws relating to municipal corporations; the extension and regulation of the tobacco industry within the island; and the question of the cyprus museum. upon all or the greater part of these sub– jects i hope that measures will be laid before you before the session terminates. κυπριακη δημοκρατιαthe cyprus gazette, march 13th. 1896. 2997 my attention has recently been drawn to the in– convenience from which the trading community arc alleged to suffer owing to the withdrawal or restriction of the banking facilities upon which they have been accustomed to depend, i have carefully considered the representations which have been made to me and i am in communication upon the subject with the secretary of state. since our last meeting changes have taken place within the council itself. the government and the council have suffered a great loss by the transfer of'mr. taylor our late receiver-general to another colony. the council will regret, as i do myself, the absence from amongst us of mr. kyriakides and mr. paloeologos, both of whom have been obliged for domestic reasons to resign the seats which they held as elected members for the limassol and papho division. before i conclude this address i wish to point out that no schemes for the development of the resources of a country or for the enhancement of the material prosperity of its people, can ever succeed without the active co-operation of the people themselves. you may place before them improved appliances and methods of agriculture, by which the productiveness of the soil can be increased ; you may demonstrate to them that they can add to their wealth and their com– fort by cultivating new products, or by learning new processes, or by utilizing things which they now dis– regard as worthless ; but unless they open their minds to receive new ideas all your efforts v.ill be wasted. when i was lately in england i had the advantage of consulting with experts of the highest practical ability, from whom i learnt that many of your most familiar products and manufactures might be greatly enhanced in value by a little attention to certain matters of detail. the silk fibre produced in cyprus is of excellent quality, but the fabric which is woven from it fetches a much lower price that it would do if certain inequalities in the tissue, caused by careless or unskilful winding, could be avoided. i belie\e that this defect might be remedied by the introduction of an improved form of winding machine, if only the people could be induced to use it. there are several plants in cyprus which contain the principle of tannin, some of which i believe grow spontaneously in many parts of the island. i obtained an analysis of one of the commonest of these, which grows like a weed and is little thought of. i was imformed that it affords tannin of a very superior kind and might with care and cultiaation be made to yield a considerable return. the making of common articles of pottery is an industry which has existed here from time immemorial, but the articles produced are unglazed, and are there– fore useless for many domestic purposes, i submitted some of these common pieces of pottery to a skilled manufacturer in england, who returned them to me with an admirable glaze upon them, which he said could be produced easily and cheaply, as the clay was naturally of an excellent quality for taking a glaze. an entirely new industry might thus be opened up which might prove an extremely lucrative one. but the essential condition of success in this as in the other instances which i hae mentioned, is that the people should be willing to accept new ideas, ana not reject a thing for the mere reason that it was unknown to their fathers. there is indeed no reasoii why a considerable addition should not be made to the material wealth of this country by only making better use of those natural advantages which lie ready to hand. i take this opportunitv of inviting public attention to the agricultural show which it is proposed to hold ir. xtnvpmbpr next for the exhibition of the various m products and manufactures of tho island. it is desir– able that the advantages to be derived from such an exhibition should be made known as widely as possible, especially amongst the village population; and i ask the members of the council to co-operate in promoting this object by every means in their power, i must not fail to point out that any large measure for the material advancement of the country will depend for its realization upon conditions which cannot be reckoned with beforehand, as well as upon other con– siderations which do not admit of discussion here. one general observation i may however make. the present government of her majesty have declared their intention of dealing avith the various colonies and dependencies of the crown in accordance with a policy of progessive development. i think that i may venture to give you the assurance that, within such limits as a strict and reasoned estimate of the capabil– ities of the island may impose, the benefits of that enlightened policy will not be withheld from cyprus.

(2.) with regard to those parts of your excellency's speeeli that deal more especially with the island and its afifairs, i t ' ? with re-tet that the council observes that they contain no definite i\ssuraac;,'s guaranteeing efforts for improvement in its condition. the home gov ininent, the local government, and the people are unanimously agreed that, in view of the continued de– preciation of the prices of all kinds of island produce, it is essentially uocvs;ary that tbe resources of the country elould be devclof&d ; indeed, in commenting on this important subject. your er-cvlkncy indi– cates (as has frefaently been indicated by this council and by tle people), the naiuif of the works required, among which are included irrigation and an extended utilisation of the water supply. (3.) it is a just complaint of the inhabitants of cyprus, and the coimcil feels that it would l)e failing in its duty were it to omit to place this complaint on record, that the solicitude of the government in regard to this vital question of the development of the coun– try's resources, and, by consequence, of the increase of its material wealth and prosperity, has, so far. been proved solely by expressions of sympathy, wherein a marked contrast is offered to the more than solicitude displayed when the question is one touching the col– lection of revenue, the re-imposition of previoittfly temitted dues, or, notwithstanding the condition to which the country has been reduced, the levy of entirely new taxation! (4.) in proof of what is stated, an instance that recently occurred may be quoted. the govemment, while fnuy i«qcising the great abilities and services rendered by mr. gennadius, neglected, when an op– portunity was afforded by changes to be effected in a certain department, after the departure from cypras of the gentleman nam, to avail icstlf of that opporttmity by leteining ids services, even though the vital [interests of the -oountry were concerned. the council, however, trusts that in carrying ont other departmental changes which, it is said, are imminent, similar arrangements may not be made solely in the interests of individuals, and to the prejudice of the interests of the i&itad : imt that the opportunity may not be lost of making such .an.pointment as that for which the urgent necessity has for so long been im– pressed iqkm thf govemment by this council, as in such an appointment lies the sole hope that the ; eople may be persuaded to abandon their old ideas, and to take up "new methods, and to adopt new thoughts in regard to agriculture, and t;;as aid in sccuriiil: that development of which your exeth.'ncy speal.s. (5.) the council trasts, too, that in future the efforts of the govemment will not be confined to the mere compilation of reports, or to pointin;j: out wliat ou:rht to be done : but that the execution of -uch works as those your excellency i:;'.- referred to will .actuallv be taken in bar.'1. as, if they are ne-lected, thc financial aiid material condition of t'ue country will, cs yonr excellency very jiiftly remarks continue to deteriorate. 1 (6.) in connection with the question of thedevelqpt-ment f the idand's resc'urct;?, the councu \im observed with gratification your excellency s remarlsb rardiog the legislation contemplated for the regnht-tion of the tobacco industry, and would earnestly impress upon the government the importance of t l article in question as one that, with due encouragement of its cultivation within the island, may bec(»ne one of the chief among its resources. there is, however, another industry, another resource, whicli the conn regrets that your excelleucy has passed over in silence, namely the wine indaatxy of cyprrs. in spite of the just representatioiis made both to the home and the local grovemments. nothing has yet been done for the rehef of thc suffering wine-growers, on the contraij, their position has been aggravated by the unfair estimation of the prices of their produce. (7.) iu considering the question of themeansnecessary to ensure an increase of the yield of cereals and other produce, the coimcil cannot think that this alone can be expected to bring about tlie much wished for result of corresponding increase ot prc»speriiiy. there are other factors that must contribute, as iu the neigh– bouring country of egypr. to whieh yuu • excellenqy draws attention, where, as is known, a reduction in the taxation has also greatly contributed to the in– creased production of the soil and to the prtsrierity of the inhabitants. (8.) the council would urge upon :!:- govemmeat the necessity for taking into consideration the tpiestion of devising means for assisting the commercial and agricultural commimities in times of pecuniary neces– sity, as. for example, the establishment of an agricid-tural bank. the adoption of a measure of this nature will, in the opinion of the council, tend greatly to the accomplishment of the much needed develop– ment of the island's resources. (9.) the couucii learns with pleasure that the works necessary for securing the town of limasaol against the danger of inundation in the future have been carried out. and considei's it a matter of oon-gratidation that the cost of works of such great benefit has been provided entirely from funds con– tributed by the country, this being especially due to the active endeavous of your excellency and to the prompt consent of the members of the conncil. (lb.) the conncil takes this opportunity to repeat tiiat it considers the const ruction «f a railn uy as one of the wor]»af ntility reqoired in cyprus. (11.) the chanks of the coimcu are dne to your exoellenoy for having .submittedjor the consideration of her majesty's govemment the memorial presented "last year, h i s memorial expresses wishes of fomr-fifths of the population of the island, and contains a true and faithfid exposition of its necessities. (12.) with reference to the paenge in your excel– lency's speech that deals with the part taken by the police in the capture of the band of outlaws that so long disturbed the peace of the papho and limassol districts, although we agree with your excellency that some membere of the force have fulfilled their duties on this occasion, the coimcil regrets that it is obhged to express an opinion that then, and in the general performance of it duties, its conduct has not been commensurate with the large sums expended an– nually on its maintenance, and that there is great need for improvement both in its organisation and in its ireneral efficiency. (13.) the coancil has learnt with stirpriae that the special patrol organized vu its recommendation \\\.s so soon disbanded, and would recommend to the hov iii-mei.t the advisability of re-es:abl:sl.idg tbi, or a similar force. (14.) a- rerai . the conduct of the viha.:ers in couuettiaii with the outlaws, to which your excvllency refers, the council e-anuot think that it is desired to attach blame to the whole of the village communities κυπριακη δημοκρατια3dis the cyprus gazjette, march 27th, 1896. of the two districts, as, to the knowledge of the coun– cil, assistance was rendered, and information afforded, to the police in their investigations, notwithstanding the danger to which the people were exposed in render– ing such information; and, moreover, it is known that the final capture of the outlaws was due to the police acting upon information supplied by them. (15.) in conclusion, the coimcil begs that your excellency will convey to the right honourable mr. chamberlain, the secretary of state, whose sympathy for the island, more than once expressed, is fully and gratefully appreciated, the opinion of the members that so long as the country is burdened by the tribute, so long as no serious efforts are made for the development of its resources, and so long as it is not allowed to participate in its own administration, its condition will continue to decline. 23rd march, 1896.

other person who may feel himself aggrieved or damaged by any action taken by any principal officer of land registration under the provisions of clause 5, to apply to the district court of the district in which the property offered for sale is situate for an order to stay such sale and to restrain such principal officer of land registration from taking further action in the matter. • 8. on the hearing of such application, it shall be lawful for the district court to make such order as justice shall require, provided that no order restraining the principal officer of land registration shall be made where it shall be shewn to the satisfaction of the district court that the unregistered owner served with a notice under the provisions of clause 2 was entitled to be registered as the owner of the immoveable pro– perty in question at the time such notice was served upon him. 9. on the completion of any sale under the provisions of clause 5, it shall be lawful for the principal officer of land registration to take all necessary steps for effecting a registra– tion in the name of an unregistered owner of any property affected by notice served under clause 2 and to apply the proceeds of such sale in payment of the expenses of sale, the fees for registration and arrears of verghi due upon such pro– perty, and if the sum realized at the sale shall be more than sufficient to meet these payments the surplus shall be paid to the unregistered owner and, where he cannot be found, into the public treasury. 10. the fees payable upon registration of a property under this law shall be calculated according to the scale of fees in force at the time when such registration is effected. 11. the amount of fees to be taken in respect of the transfer of any arazie miri6 by

and iu addition to these items, i may refer to the sm'vey which has been made by a skiued expert from india with a view to considering the feasibility of improving the existing methods of artificially watering the land, utilising new sources of water supply, and generally harmonising the irrigation systems of the island. the reports on the subject are now engaging the close attention of the govemment and their advisers. i may further observe that arrangements for a regular weekly mail service are, i hope, on the eve of comple– tion, and that the island has had the good fortune to secure in the person of mr. gennadius, as director of agriculture, a gentleman whose accession to the ranks of the public service will, i am confident, prove of great utility in fostering the improvement and develop– ment of the staple industries of cyprus. 3. the facts above referred to to some extent relieve me from going as much into detail on some of the points raised in the memorial as would have been necessary had there been none of these recent develop– ments of the policy of her majesty's government towards cyprus ; but ou certain topics it is still neces– sary that i should touch, and i now proceed to do so. 4. the memorial commences by expressing anew that desire for union with the hellenic kingdom which has been expressed many times before in similar memorials and other such communications. on this point her majesty's government can do no more than refer to the answer made by mr. gladstone on the subject in 1881, viz.: that "while her majesty's " government earnestly desire the happiness of cyprus " they must remind the inhabitants that the island is " held by this country under the convention with the " porte as a part of the ottoman empire, and that " proposals which would be a violation of that con- " vention cannot be discussed." this declaration which was republished in " the cyprus gazette " of the 26th april, 1895, together with a declaration by the marquess of ripon that " her majesty's govern-nlent had no intention of abandoning or endeavouring to abandon the administration of cyprus under the ano-turkish convention of 1878," embodies the attitude of her majesty's present advisers in regard to this question. 5. the subject of taxation on which the memorial dwells at length is one that has received much atten– tion in past years, and has been exhaustively discussed by previous high commissioners and by my predeces– sors in office. bearing this in mind, h6r majesty's government regret to find that the memorialists still maiiitain that the burden of taxation has been actually augmented during the british occupation. these and other statements to the same effect were combated at length by sir henry bulwer in his despatches of 1889; and lord knutsford in his despatch of the 22nd march, 1890, after an independent examination of the question, gave his opinion substantially in favour of sir henry bulwer's contentions. the case, which was already a strong one, has been still further strengthened by what is said in the hth paragraph of captain young's letter of the 2nd of (october last. the case of the govemment is, speaking broadly, that the comparatively large revenues which have been raised under british administration do not afford even presumptive evidence that the burden of taxatioji has been added to, because the gross increase is ascribable to an increase in the purchasing power of the community, or to more regular and efficient col– lection, and that whilst certain taxes have been created or increased, these have leen more than balanced by abolitions or reductions of other imposts. as regards the locust taxes and the field watchmen's tax, to which special reference is made in the memorial, i may observe that both were imposed after consultation with the representatives of tbe inhabitants, and were for useful services not hitherto provided for out of general revenue. /• s regards the locust taxes her majesty's government concur in the view of the case , taken by captain young in paragraph 6 of his letter; and with respect to the field watchmen's tax it will suffice to add that the law which imposed it has been repealed. 6. as regards the question of the tribute, i can only observe, as the people of cyprus must akeady be well aware, that the matter is full of difficulties, that it is receiving the careful attention of her majesty's government. 7. the remaming questions to which i shall rcjfer are those of education, the police force, the admission, of natives to the executive council, and the appoint– ment of native lawyers as presidents of district cfourts, and of natives to the higher administrative oflice. 8. as regards education, her majestyygovernment appreciate and sympathise with the desire of the people of cyprus for aid towards providing their children with both primary and secondary education; and, as the legislative council has acknowledged, they have during the present year given practical evidence of their sympathy by authorising an appreciable increase of expenditure for this purpose. they feel bound, however, to state that, until the primary education has been raised to a more satisfactory standard, any further increase should be devoted to primaiy rather than to secondary education. ' 9. with respect to the organization and composition of the police, i may remark that, since the memorial was lodged, the breaking up of the band of outlaws which was for so long a standing menace to the peqpe and good order of a large district of the island has afforded tangible evidence that the force is zealous and capable of good work. the circumstance wich you have reported in other despatches in connecjtion •with this matter have led me to the conclusion that the police behaved extremely well in the face of great difficulties. at the same time. her majesty's govern– ment do not wish it to be supposed that they regard the present organization of the police as perfect, and they will be glad to bear in mind the various'sugges– tions on this subject that have been made in the memorial. it must, however, be borne in mind that the pay which the island can afford to offer is not such as to attract specially ehgible men, and thafi even in the most favourable circumstances it is no easy matter to secure men with that combinajbion of courage, forbearance, discretion and intelhgence which goes to make a police force ofthe best type. 10. with regard to the admission of natives to tibe executive council, her majesty's government have had this question before them for some time, and whilst they are anxious that both in matters of leg&- lation and administration every respect should be paid to the wishes of the people, and that every facihty should be given for the expression o\ pubhc feeling, and its being brought to the notice of the local government, they are not satisfied that the existing arrangements are inadequate for this purpose. they beheve that in regard to every measure of importance you and the members of your government, by informal consultation with the elected members of council and others who are qualified to speak as to the trend of public feeling, are able to keep fully in touch with it, and endeavour to give effect to it so far as practicable, and in special circumstances the high commissioner is empowered by section 8 of the order in council of ut h september, 1878, to. summon any resident in the island on special occasions as an exa(r(jiaaty giemr κυπριακη δημοκρατιαthe cyprus gazette, september 11th, 1896. 3139 of the executive council. they are not therefore at present prepared to make any change in the direction suggested by the memorialists. 11. the question of the appointment of natives of the island to the higher posts and of native lawyers to l)e presidents of dlsaict courts i.i a difficuk one in acountry like cvpras occupied by two distinct races differing v,-idely ii'om one another not only in language and religion, but in origin, history, habits of thought and modes of life. that there are advantages from the point of view of the pubhc in selecting candidates familiar with the island and the people is in itself obvious; and for the government itself such a policy must always have peculiar recommendations inas– much as it is far less costly than the pohcy of appointed candidates from outside the island. it is, in fact, the pohcy which, within due limits, this department seeks to pursue so far as it patronage extends. but in cyprus, it has to be considered in each case as it arises, whether the ad\'antages are not more than counterbalanced by the disadvanto't -, whether the local candidates have the necessary training and experience, whether they can render the same amount and kind of assistance to the high commissioner as candidates trained in the united kingdom or the colonies, whether they will be regarded as impartial and free from the bias of race and family connections and whether the satisfaction which the selection of one of them might give to the section of the population to whicli ho belonged would not be equalled by a corresponding dissatisfaction among the section to which he did not belong. as regards the presidencies of the district courts especially, i .would observe that under no circumstances could her majesty's go\-ernment enter– tain tiie suggestion of selecting natives, unless it proceeded from both sections of the community. 12. in conclusion i may say that whilst questions of the fairness of this or that tax, or the safficiency of the provision made for this or that service will probably, having regard to the peculiar financial relations between this country and (3yprus, long remain subjects of controversy, this country can confidently appeal to the record of the past eighteen years as showing what its action and intentions have been towards cyprus. i t has purified and elevated the courts of jutic;e. it has estabushed the principle of equ;ility in the treatment of all races and religions, has given to the elected representatives of the people a voice, which is often a predominating voice, in legislation. it has not sought to repress the expression of public opinion in the press or at public meeting. it has repressed extortion, and sought to secure every man in his rights against his neighbours and against the oppression of functionaries. it has recognised the claims of the young to education, and of the sick and feeble to physical rehef in a manner which was never contemplated before. it has preserved the population from the ravages of imported epidemics; and above all it has maintained the public peace. so that to-day cypms stands in marked and happy contrast to other lands, more favoured perhaps by nature, with which it was formerly more closely linked, and the fate of which it might be to some extent sharing to-day if it had not come under, its present form of admiiiis-trdtion. i have, &c., j..chamberlain. high comniissioner, sir w. j. sendau, k.c.m.g., &c., &c., &c."

freight and cost of each separate kind of animal shewn, in order that a more complete check may be exercised ? 4. i checked the cash book entries into the ledger, and from this checked the annual account attached to the papers above referred to. 5. the accounts appear to be all correct, but i should be glad to be furnished with some explanation of the sum of 16 5s. which is shewn in the report as an "advance for law expenses in 1892." there appears to be no voucher in support of this amount. 6. i do not consider it necessary to make any remark upon the manner in which these accounts have been kept, as in some cases they were somewhat com– plicated, but i have seen the cash book and ledger which are being kept for the current year, and find that they are satisfactory and an improvement on the method employed for the 1895-96 accounts. 7. with regard to the administration of this fund, i should like to enquire what check is exercised over the hve stock imported. for instance i notice several large payments on this account, but, beyond a few items such as "sale of wool" or "sale of merino sheep" and "skins," i see no receipts brought to credit. i do not know what books are kept by the inspector of agricultural industries, but it would cer– tainly appear necessary that some acconnts of the pro- -duce of the animals should be kept. 8. i should be lad to be informed where any fees •taken for the services of the bu!i., boars, rams', &c., are brought to account, and also where the amounts, if any, received from the sale of eggs or young of the poultry, &c., are shewn. 9. beyond these few points the accounts appear to me to be satisfactory. i have, &c., bernard senior, local auditor. expenses on bulls, pigs and poultry from england. items of expenses :— sundries at lamaca by
