A CHILLY INTERVIEW-

The interview with Hon. Mr. Fielding n the Council Chamber yesterday morn- ing by the Board of Trade and prominent citizens was cordial enough as far as the

preliminary greetings were concerned,but as to the reception accordei our urgent and reasonable request: it was as chilling as the xero weather and the stiff Decem- ber nerthwester howling outside. Our claims aid wishes as to fi central location

THE PUST OFFICE VACANCY.

The position ot Postmaster of Charlotte-'

town and Assistant Inspector ot Post Offices vacated by the death ot Mr. Breeken is still vacant. There are a 'number ot applicants, several of whom were led to believe that their chances oi securing the appointment were good, but they are still kept in suspense. There have been various phases of the 'situation so iar. and there maybe more to come.

It was at one time proposed to make two appointments, keeping the postmaster- ship, and the assistant inspectorship separate, and so nod places for two ner-

eons, But- it is undersiood that neither

the Department at Ottawa nor the lead- ing appllcants for the position would be

satisfied with that coarse. One capable man with _ a kcowlege of his duties could do tile work, and appointment of two would perhaps involve an outlay larger-

than the present salary ot $2,110 which, with travelling allowances, is ample for

pne good msn. , ` °

Quite recently a rumor has got into

circulation, we know not with what _foundation precisely, that Mr. McKinnon M. P. is thinking seriously ot taking the

aSena.to1-ship which many a member of Parliament would be glad to get, and

pence ot running elections, always with more or less uncertain results. We give ~

the rumor for wha: it is worth; and it i there is nothing in it, as we shall be glad to learn, The Guardian, or any other

loe_l newspaper wouli willingly publish Mr. MoKinnon’s contradiction, should he desire it. Another rumor has it that

an edart will be made ,or is being made to? have the salary increased; This could I not very well be done, and -ought not to be, as the salary is large enough. And there are other intereatspersonal and party, to

be considered Beside any one man‘s

wishes or convehieoce. Leading and hope- p

ful applicants for the position could not

bs expected to take kinrliy to the appoint-

‘ment of Mr. McKinnon, and they might

raiseavery considerable storm io pre- vent it, it it were insisted- upon. In the

lic interest that the suspense shall be' ter- minated and an appointment made.

The esteemed Examiner says it will r: ot

“stretch” a point to be _able to r laim rela-

ti?smp with the Minister- or Finance. In a olitical campaign of course it might be V different. ~ _

We must object to the easy way in_ which The Parris:-. fares mar giwteaia that the Hillsboro bridge is a present from the Ottawa Government to our pec- ple. The cost of ihe bridge, sehr as the federal Government is concerned is paid out ol the revenues raised by taxation

throughout Canada. In that regard we

pay more than we receive. But this is

not all. The Provincial Government has bound itself to pay $12,000 a year for all time towards the bridge. ` Capi-a iss-d ‘hi 4 per cent this would be $300,013, or about

one third of the total cost of the bridge. l
