L. BH. Davies

Who is correct? Who is the prevari- cator? Mr. Sullivan’s to Or- } tawa was for the sole purpose of settling this important piers question. While ihere he has been in daily communica- tion with the Cabivet, and with the Minister of Public Works. He was acquainted with the most minute details of the question, aad knew the daily movements of the Government in the matter. When he sent the announce ment published yesterday he did s0 on the authority of the Minister of Public Works, who informed him of the action which the Cabinet woald take at its next metting. But from whence does Mr. Davies derive his information? A Cabi net meeting has not been held, and Mr. Davies is not, on avy subject or matter whatever, iu the confidence of the Gov- ernment. It would, therefore, be ridicu- lous to think that the Minister of Public Works would give him or any other member of the Opposition information until the Government had finally decided ali matters in detail.

The despatch from Mr. Davies is, we are informed by Mr. Robertson, being used at the polls in Belfast district to- day. Ii was uo doubt intended for that purpose. However, we wiil soon see the result. and few days will prove who is the prevaricator.

Brick Building.

We learn that the Board of Under- writers at the meetiug held laat night, determiced to tuke no fire risks on any wooden building built on the site of the recent fire, on Scuth Side of Queen Square This is a move in the right direction and will necessitate the erection o! brick buildings in a portion of the town where they are mest needed. We! have be n astouisled at the inaction of | ihe Civie Govert ment in this matter in | view of the ac ion of almost every other | city in Canada, whore bye-laws compel | the erection of brick buildings at least | within certain interva's, and so preserve

in'ssion

a worden town frem total destruction. In our own cause . yesterday S:. Patrick's Hall saved the east end o!

the eity, aud Mr. Dawson aud Mr. } Scott's brick buildings saved the whole block on Ward 4.

The Board of Doderwriters may be assured that they will have the support of the whole community, and their action must Jead the Civic Aushorities to teke evergetic and prompt measures. They have only two courses open to them: cibher to have preper building reguiatious, or to experd some five or ten thousaud dollars iu water teuks throught the city,

Some of the Speeches.

A part of the speech of Mr. Thomas White, M. P., has been published in Tue Examiner, together with sum- maries of the speeches delivered by Mr. Davies, in opposition to the proposed joav, and Mr. Foster in support of the propositions submitted to Parliament by the Government. As to the speech of Mr. White the eulogistie remarks of our parliamentary correspondent has — been fully borue ont. Of Mr. Davies’s con- | tribution to the debate we are not dis-} posed to be very criticai. The report of | it reads well, though the points in it are scattered, disconnected and weak. | We notice that the compliments Mr. | Davies received from the Opposition | Press have been very scant and yery! cold; and notwithstanding the studied | puff he gave Mr. Blike, and the pat on,

Pople in Eoxgland and Europe hk oking to Uanada asa field fr immigration, would say, there people have failed to periorm their promises; and the rising fame of the pew nationality would sink ayain,—the tide of immigration would recede; the de- velopment of the couutry would be checked. So long as the road is unopened from end to end Canadian tratlic will be directed into United States channels, Canadians are de- pendent vpon the United States for means of going to and fro in their own country, and we are deprived of any share what- ever in the profits of carrying goods be- tween Great Britain and the East. In these circumstances there are pressing causes for the speedy construction of the line, and in the interest of the country we should not refuse a loan to the Company if we can possibly afford to dose, and if secur- ity be taken for its expenditure in the ad- vancement of the work still to be done, and for the paymant of interest and principal.

As to the security! it embraces all the immense property possessed by the Com- pany, which is pledged to the expenditure of every dollar of the loan upon the work to be dune, to the payment of interest at the rate of five per cent. half yearly, and to the psyment of the principal in 1891, and should the company fail in the ful- filment of their engagements they will at once be placed completely within the power of the Administration for the time being, and will be liable at any moment to lose all fer which they exerted themselves with consummate ability and Herculean strength and evergy.

But it is said there is no guarantee that still another advance will not be required— there is no finality about the business. This objection does not amount to anything. The tinality of the contract as at first made, is not lost by reason of the loan, The main provisions of the original contract are intact. ‘The country gives the Company £25,000,000 and 25,000,000 acres of land to build the sections of the railway, they are bound to build and to operate the whole line for all time. It gives them no more. The finality cf the | bargain made by the Government and the Com- pany, remains the same as if they had gone to the Rothschilds sand mortgaged their property and ob’ained the money they

lc ia urged, moreover, that as the money will be adwaneed gradually while the work is preceeding the loan will not cause av uuidue strain upon the publie credit, The cred:t of the Government never stood tigher than it does at present. standing ail that has since been done in the formation ef railways and public works, it is a poritive fect that the cost of the public debt is this year only $509,125 more than it was in 1878, end according to the estimates it will neat year be Jess than that eum by about $250,000. Sothat the Govern- ment is thoroughly well secured in making the loan, it wii) have no difficulty in raising the money as the work goes on; and it will pay interest at the rate of 4 or 44 per cent. ard receive interest at the rate «t 5 per cent. ‘Thus all the great advan- tages tu be gained by the vigoreus pro- recuticn of the work will be obtained, ard the burdens of the country will be no greater but rather Jess than they would be if the resolutions were thrown out by Parliament and the loan refused.

THE WAR OF THE RAILWAY.,

The secret hostility of the Grand Trunk and Canada Pacitic Railway Companivr. hk-s developed into open warfare. Mr. MHickson’s appeal to

the Government not to aid the Canadian Pacitic to the injury of the interests which the Grand Trunk fiave established at great cost, is met by Mr. Van Horne’s asatgment that it was the hostile, monopoly holding attitude of the Grand Trunk which eom- pelled the Canada Pacific to purchase ex- tensions and thus secure independent con- nections with the chief business and manu- facturing centres of the country. The quarrel as jt goes on shows more and more clearly that it was the enmity of the Grand Trunk and the American ccjnpeting lines which forced the Uanada Pacific Rail- way Company to seek aid from the Govern- ment. But though the aid will be given, it is not likely that the Grand Trunk will be ruined ; for the rapicly increasing popu- lation and (raflic of the country will prob-

way under the present management was to look about for the best means of securing their Ontario connections, atid with this vicw they opened negotiations with the Great \Western Railway to build the Ontario and Quebec, and so to join Toronto and Montreal with the Great Wescern system, At once the Graud Truck Railway set about killivg this project, with the result of the absorption of ithe Great Western Railway by the Grand ‘Trunk Railway. The Graad Trank Railway | were much surprised to find that this move ‘had not worked as they had anticipeted; that there was yet the Credit Valley Railway, and i that tae Oatario and Queb ¢ was to be built, even though the Grext Weetern Railway had been absorbed. ‘They then tried to buy the Credit Valley Railway and the Ontario and /Quebee In this they failed

| *They have since been working night and day toso diseredit the Canadian Pacitie Rwl- way financially that it would not be able to ‘carry out its undertakings.

| «Phe Grand Trunk have always been will- \ing, and are now willing, to make terms with ithe Canadian Pacitic Railway, the only con- litim being that the Canadian Pacific Rail- | way shail hand over the Outario and Quebec land the Credit Valley Railways to them, aad (fur thece lines they are prepared to pay a | vig price,

| “Whas does this mean for Canada asa whole, and for Ontario in particular? Simply that all the business of Ontario,and much of the business of the other provinces, would be under he absolute control of one Company, and that Company the grand Trunk Railway, a Com- prny that has always been grossly misman- aged; that has a capital representing many times the actual cost of the road; a Company that unless it can devise some means of in- creasing its eernings out of the people of Canada, mustere long make default on some of the securities upon which it now pays in- terest.

“The Management of the Company recog- nize this fact, and have consequently been straining every nerve to get control of the Province of Ontario. Once accomplish this and they have nothing to fear. They could, and would, at once put up rates. from one end of the country to the other. Every busbel of grain and every pound of freight would be subject to largely increased charges and there would be no escape. A farmer in Ontario, no matter where his farm, haviog ',000 bush- els of grain to sell, must pay, at least, five cents a bashel more freight—i. e , contribute $50 extra to the Grand Trunk Railway,-— and as there are about 12,000,000 bushels of barley alone grown, ef which probably 10,000,000 are exported, and from 10,000,000 to 12,000,000 bushels of other cereals exported in the shape of grain cr flour, an extra charge of five cents per bushel on these items alone, amounts to the enormous sum of $1,000,000 or $1,200,000. This is an amount worth tighting for, but it represents a small propor- tion of the sum total which the Grand Trank

Railway would get should they attain their object. Once let them gain the control of the Oatario aud Quebee and Credit Valley Rail- ways, and they have a monopoly indeed, and one that no government or corporation ever cculd hope to break. Then no man could leave or enter Ontario except by the Grand Truck Rsilway, and at such rate as they chose to impose ; no bushel of grain, no car-load of cattle or lumber, no ounce of fre'ght, could be handled, except on such t rms as the Grand Trank Railway pleased to charge ; and no one cau doubt for a moment that their charges would be the highest that could be exacted,

‘* Ty 18 TO OBTAIN THIS MONOPOLY THAT THE GRAND TRUNK RAILWAY HAVE BEEN FIGHTING THe Canapias Paciric Railway, AND DIS CREDItING CANADA FOR THE PAST THREE YEARs.”

MILITARY MATTERS IN THE SENATE.

Several matters of inter. st: and import- ance to the Ialand have been discussed by the Senate. The establishment of a mili- tary school at Mencton or Amherst, or some point more convenient for the militia- men of P. E. Island, Nova Scotia, and the northern section of New Brunswick than Fredericton, was strongly urged by Sena- tors Dickie (who introduced the matter), Haythorne, Power, Almon, Carvell, Kaul- back, Botsford, McLellan, Wark and others. The honorable gentlemen seemed to be very unanimous as to the wisdom of doing everything that can pe done to break down Provincial lines and local prejudices with respect to matters of general import ance; and expressed the opinion that mili- tary schools, so situated that young men of spirit and promise from the various Pro- vinces could easily attend them, would be the means of promoting a vigorous and wholesome sentiment. Senator Haythorne said truly that the military instinct is very strong in P. E. Island, and that if a school were established at some convenient point, | it would, in all probability; be attended by |a goodiy number of young Islanders. Sir , Alexander Campbell stated that the Gov- ert. ment would consider the proposal.

Senator Haythorne’s motion for copies of the latest survey held on the Northern Liyht, and ether documents in the Depart- ment of Marine, illustrative of the present condition of that vessel, was the text for an honj’s discussion of the important sub- gect cf winter communication between the Island and the Mainland. Senatvra Hay- thorne and Carvell gave graphie descrip- tions of the Straits blockaded by northern ice, and of the shocks the Northern Light had received in her attempts to break through it They agreed that she must necessarily be, to gome extent, strained and weakened, and that provision should be made for the continuance of the service in future years.

Senator Haythorne said that before buiid- ing a new toat, the Government should inveke the experience of arctic voyagers as to the best models of vessels for service in the ice, and Senator Carvell said he would lise to’ gee jhe ‘Northern Light” have a fair trial, in the tiim in which Mr. Sewell intended that she should be ‘ propelled. | Senator Howlap said that the ‘Northern | Light” was not modeled or suitable for the

LETTERS TO THY EDITOR,

Honor to whom Honor is Due.

Sir,—The paragraph in the Charlotte- town Herald of yesterday stating that St. Patrick's Hall was saved through the exertions of a few individuals is too excep- tionable, and shows clearly that the Herald's knowledge about the fire in St. Patrick’s Hall ia very limited.

Many of our citizens worked hard to prevent the fire spreading through the building. At one time it was thought the ltuilding could not be saved as the fire was breaking out in several places at the same time; but men experienced at fires made another effort and St. Patrick's Hall was sayed.

All praise is due our young men who worked so hard to save St. Patrick’s Hall.
