Indians generally in that way. It is generally considered that there should be a permanence of revenue from any property which the Indians have, and the Act as it stands, allowing 50 per cent to be paid directly, is a big step in advance of the Act as it formerly was, and I doubt if it would be acceptable generally to allow a larger proportion to be paid. I quite appreciate the very difficult character of the conditions which my hon. friend has in mind. I would very much rather provide for that particular case, which is very exceptional, by a special Act, than to amend the general Act to meet a special

the Indians in regard to this particular reserve. He was prepared to offer them a certain sum in cash, amounting to $2,000 per family for 40 families. The Indians were asking for more, but the minister said, I cannot go any further, because I can only give you 50 per cent of the value of the reserve. That being the case, if such an amendment as that proposed were made, it would materially assist the settlement of that question.

Progress reported.

Mr. FIELDING moved the adjournment of the House.

Mr. J. HAGGART. What business will be taken up on the first day after the vacation?

Mr. FIELDING. We will continue on the Bills which have been discussed today, and which we have not been able to put through-the minor Bills. Almost anything except the Naval Bill will be taken up on the opening day.
