province of Canada in respect to free lom from crime. The statistics show that the convictions in 1893 amounted to only 2.20 per 10,000 of its inhabicants, against 3.76 in New Brunswick, 4.40 in Nova Scotia, 9.18 in Manitoha; 10.75 in Ontario; 12.64 in the Territories and 26.11 in British Columbia. It is very pleasing to note that P. E. Islaud is at the But it is to be regretted

head of this list that, while a decrease of crime in this Province is shown, there has been consid- erable increase over Cauada as a whole. The average of convictions for crimes com- mitted throughout Canada last year was 936 per 10.000 of the population, against 8.23 in the previous year.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
—We are indebted to William Bryce, the publisher, Toronto, for a copy of the Canadian tariff as readjusted iuring the late session of Parliament. Our import- ers and men of business will find it to be of great value.
—Sixteen persons left Charlottetown this morning for the Grit picnic, and one dropped offat the Junction. No one left Tignish, though it was not then or there known that Longley had not come. A few of the grits of the district were on the
| grounds; but they were not half as warm
| ed in a victory for the home team.

LEGISLATORS AND LABOR.
“Harpers WreekLy” maintains with a good reason that the legislators of the United States are dominated to a large ex- tent by the organized labor unions of the States, and says:
“Out of this condition of things harm is likely tocome. The strike has already stimulated the desire of politicians to frame laws that will be pleasing to labor. Mr. Springer has prepared a scheme for the es- tablishment of a permanent board of arbi- trators, and the President has been oblig- ed, under an existing law which bears the name of one of the most notorious dema- gogues who ever sat in Congress, to ap- point a commission to examine into and re-
rt on the Pullman strike. Crude jaws that will be inoperative except for mischief may be the outcome of this strike that will do more harm to the country and to the working-men themselves than the sud- den and short-lived violence that accon.- panied the strike itself
“ Arbitration and other laws are already on statute-books of the States that sccom- plished no good purpose, and that are part of those eternal discredits to legislation, the laws that cannot be enforced. Con-
Payments in the mat-
spiracy laws have been passed for the |
benefit of labor that are effective against labor. The Federal anti-trust law itself, framed as it was for the avowed purpose of preventing combinations in restraint of trade, has been invoxed for the purpose of preventing @ boy-cott. It seems to be be- yond the wit of legislators to devise a law that will force men to an unwilling agreement, and that is precisely what com- pulsory abritration meams. Moreover, it is an essential injury to working-men that their individuality should be destroyed, and that the laws should assume them ‘to be a helpless mass composed of men who cannot fight their own battles, who cannot compete in the general strugyle of life, but must be cared for and coddled until then come to depend upon the state as paupers do. There is nothing so damaging, not only to working-men, bat to all humanity as the communistic hostility to individual- ity embodied in much of our labor legis lation and in most of the demands of labor socialists. We have laws that provide that men shall keep their agreements, and we have courts to enforce these laws. We do not want laws that will compel either working-mea or their employers to enter into what they consider to be unfair agree- ments.
“Such laws, if they cannot be enforced, inspire contempt for all law and for the
courta of justice, which is the moet danger- | ous state of the public mind in a popular |
government. If they can be enforced, they are likely to injure the working-men as well as their employers, for they tran- fer the controversy from those who are parties to it and who understand its merit toa group of politicians who are more than likeiy to decide in favor of the side with the moet votes, without regard to jus- tice or equity,”
There is, we need not add, a great deal of force in this argument.

O'Connell's Day Fittingly Observed.
———
Tue picnic held yesterday at Scotchfort, under the aupices of the Benevolent [Irish Society, was, as we anticipated, one of the best and most enjoyable gatherings of the reason The train from this city brought about five hundred people, and when met at Royalty Junction by the special from Summerside, the crowd on board was not less than six hundred. The regulars from Souris and Georgetown had also a large number of pleasure seekers and hundreds assembled by carriage from the surrounding country. On arrival ofthe train from Charlottetown the three branches of the B. [. 8S. formed in proces- sion, headed by Galbraith’s Band, and
raded to the band stand, where the
ranches were welcomed by the President efthe Charlottetown Society. By this time’all the saloons were in ful! swing, and in @ short time the sports commenced.
The saloons were well got up and abundant!y supplied with excellent re- freshwents, which were sold at moderate prices, and afforded great satisfaction to patrons.
The gathering was large, respectable- looking and well behaved. No intoxi- cants were sold on or near the grounds, and the best of order prevailed.
His Honor Lieutenant Governor Howlan was present and with friends occupied a stand erected in front of the ring fer hi: use,
The games opened at 11.30 and con- tinued until 5 o’clock. Great interest was taken in the sports. Mr. P. F. Doyle acted efficiently as secretary of the ring, and the committee and judges discharged their duties in a highly satisfactory manner. The prizes as awarded and the successful competitors are as follows :
