The balance in hand of £38,270 11 4, is distrihuled amongst 327 Depositors, giving an average of £117 0 8 standing to the credit of each account or £19 2 8 per head of the population. These figures, after a period of ten years establishment, compare most favourably with other Colonies where, from the late Sir B. Gillen’s 00 years statistics, South Australia heads the list with £7 10 0, per head ol the population. "With the absence of other means of investing locally, unmixed good there­ fore lias undoubtedly resulted from the introduction of the Savings Bank; the majority of the shepherds and labouring classes feeling that they can enjoy the security of the Bank and that years of thrift will not be lost to them have, as was anticipated, taken advantage in this way of making prudent provision for the future. Ear from throwing any charge on the public, the Savings Bank yields a profit which is sufficient to secure the Government against any risk of loss. The income earned during the past Year was £1,199 8 10, the expenses incurred were £925 13 3, leaving a profit of £273 15 7.

RESOLUTION. 0- rrc.idt.nt rend the following Resolution : “That it is desirable to build new Government. Offices, and that a “sum not exceeding £10,000 should for that purpose be “ appropi iated from the Land Sales Fund, and further, that a “ sum not exceeding £2000 should be appropriated from the “same fund for additions lo Government House.” In reading 1 lie resolution His Excellency pointed out the state of Government Offices which, compared with other Colonies, was a disgrace, and the desirability of a secure building for the custody of ih eds, regisleis, Ac., as well as for comfort of Public Officers, and still greater comloit and convenience for the public, who at present have to wait exposed to the weather for their mails, &c. This Colony was in its infancy, and if r« al progress were desired he felt, sure the Honourable Members would give their support. He only desired at present that Members be with him in expressing the desirability ol the principle o( the present vote. He did not ask them lo vote any more of which might be required for a year, or perhaps two years, but in any case when an estimate had been obtained lie would submit the matter to the Council again before anything was expended. His Excellency then laid plans of the proposed buildings before the Members and explained that the cost would probably be much under the (stimate. The Honourable J. J. Felton said he regretted that he could not support the resolution as he had all along been dead against incurring debt, and proceeded to mention bis disputes with the last Governor, when he was called to order, as no personal references could bo permitted in Council. u •1*

CO. TITH FALKLAND ISLANDS GAZETTE. V Mr. Felton considered if anything was done it should bo in the direction of building bridges and signposts in the camp upon which nothing was ever . expended, Stanley getting all the benefit. The Honourable A. E. Baillon said it was with profound regret that he felt it his duty to oppose this the first measure at the first Legislative Council held by His Excellency, but lie had read the Orders of the Hay with amazement and dismay. He regarded the proposal as an indication of policy on the part of His Excellency which he felt bound to deplore. lie went on to state that within the last seven or eight years the expenditure had gone up by leaps and bounds. In 1891 Council bad voted £2,500 for repairs of Government buildings, and £2000 bad been spent on Government Offices alone. Moreover money would probably be required to build new Barracks and Store (which he believed were both the property of the Admiralty) in case of the place being made a Maval

- f Hepot. He considered the present Government Offices met all requirements, and relied upon a statement read by Governor Kerr in 1800 to the effect that only the interest on the land sales should be expended. His Excellency expressed surprise and regret that a proposal which he conceived was in the host interests of the Colony should have met with such opposition and pointed out how the expenditure proposed at the present would he a future economy. The valuable records of Survey, Registration, &c., weie daily fading, an 1 in a few years would vanish, and then what would he the cost 'to replace, them. His Excellency read a return by the Treasurer wholly refuting Mr. Baillon’s assertion of the expenditure having gone up by leaps since 1891. • V His Excellency said his special care would he to see that the money was not wasted, lie said this with the more confidence as extravagance at which one Honourable Member hinted had never been laid to his charge in regard to public money at St. Helena which he had raised from debt to solvency, and asked, the Honourable Members if the room in which they now sat 15 x 13 was a suitable Council Chamber for a Colony like this, when they remembered that the Falkland Island Company thought proper to expend a sum of £8000 on a residence for their Manager. He would however in view of all that had been urged allow the matter to rest for the present, and would not go on with the second pa.t of the Uesohitiou. The Honourable the Colonial Secretary said His Excellency had L ft hut little for him t.o say beyond that, the ollices were tumbledown, and tlie deeds and records, plans and registers, were most insecure, and in case of fire would be destroyed in a few minutes. The proposed buildings were not to he a lemporary hut a lasting permanent building by which the recurrent outlay in repairing and timbering up the present offices would be saved. The Colonial Secretary asked leave at least to go on and propose the second Resolution as the Honourable Members were all personally conversant with the condition of Government House and the need for additional accommodation. The Honourable J. J. Felton said he would support the vote if it came from General Revenue and not from the L ind Fund. Mr. Baillon said it gave him great pleasure to second this, and the Resolution thus amended was carried nem con.. The Governor urged the Council not to allow any differences of opinion to become at any time personal questions, and stated that he would always give kg T. Honourable Members credit for being actuated solely in the interests and for the advancement, of the Colony, and hope ! that the Government would be able to meet in every possible way any suggestions brought forward by them, but if lie felt the view taken by the Government was for the good of the Colony lie would never relax his endeavours to convince Members of what might appear to him to be the error of their views.

Report on Government Savings Bank in 1898.

n . billing the year 1897—8, the number of deposits made in the Savings B mis amounted to 4U, a,"] then- value to £101)61 L8 74. On the other hand the i ,7'V ,° “£ °f £m3 14 1 were effected, so that the capital ink increased by £3248 4 6^ ; this amount, together with £

being an average of£121 per ,J.p Isitof or £10 TTTp« °i JhlTrihe

popu.ation, an average which takes the lead ol the United Kingdom‘diid oili or uo.onies as shown by the annexed diagram. *

Class.fied according to occupation, of the-above mentioned 349 depositors.

J 1 «

43 per cent are returned as shepherds. „ „ „ „ „ labourers. ., holding professions, or as farmers, managers, agents and various. ,, married women and domestics. ,, minors. 3 n ,, mariners. \ v. . so that at the close of tho Tenth complete year of its existence abundant, proof is given that the want of opportunity, which at orae time prevented the people employing their savings as capital, has been successfully supplied, and that the Savings J lank has fully answered the purpose for which it was instituted.

As in former years, Tables C & E show that the best months for the Bank were October to January and September when the deposits by far exceeds the withd awals, while three out of a period of four (February and May) are the usual months in the Bank’s year for the withdrawals to exceed the deposits, a circumstance due to the tact that after the busy season an exodus of shepherds and others takes place to the Mother Country or to Patagonia; the majority of whom however return after the winter only again to have recourse to the services of the Hank.

"Without this Institute it is n »t easy to imagine what, would have, became of the capital now administered by it. Hapidly as the productive c ip ability ot tho Islands has been increased, though them is not the slightest reason to doiihr. that the disposition of the communiiy to consume wealth would have run ahead ol its power ot production, the people would have expended, unproductively, up>n their immediate subs:s:ence a larger part of all they earned, while ihe hss favomable condition of the emigrant would not liavj so generally tende i<> promote the development of the neighbouring countries which help to supp.y England with cheap produce.

It is roughly estimated that since the format on 'of the bank some 54 per cent of its payments have been taken to Ihe United K-higdom or to the Colonics, 26 per cent employed in Patagonia and 20 per cent utiU^d locally. 6 of New Zealand stock were sold dtiriag the year. This s do £158 5 b Invested hy £2009 at the time ihe wa s occasioned by the Bank funds being over. amount sold was required.
