Editorial Notes

—It is reported that Professor Foster

is meeting with great success in the campaiga in King’s, N. B—“ each meeting adding to the list of his

supporters.’

— The Patriot explains that the Hon. David Laird knew nothing about its mean little article in which the purchase of stock recently made by the Hon. Donald Ferguson was referred to. “ Never saw the paragraph till it was in priat.” So it appears that Mr. Laird is the *‘irre- sponsible editor.”

—The New York Sun asks if the vast merchant navy of Great Britain is any better off for being so much !arger thao that of the United States, and if in “the geveral depression of the carrying trade” it is not “fortunate for the United States that we have so few ships afloat on ube ocetn, and so few dollars invested in them.”

—The decision of the Privy Council in the liquor license case is given in the folowing words :

“Their lordships do this day agree humbly to re" port to Your Majesty as their opinion in reply to the two questions which have been referred to them by Your Majesty that the Liquor License Act of 1884 and the act of 1884 amending the same, are not within the legislative authority of the Parliament of Canada. The provisions relating to the adulteration, if separated in their operation from the rest of the acts, would be within the authority of the Parliament, but, asin their lord- ships’ opinion they cannot be so separated, their lordships are now prepared to report to Your Majesty that ans part of the these acts is not within such authority.”

—Colonel Amyot, M. P., one of the discoateated, has challenged Sir Adolphe Caron to a discussion of the following questions :—

Ist. Why the half-breed captives should not be set at liberty ?

gnd. Why the Speaker of one of the Houses at Ottawa is nota French-Canadian !}

3rd. Why a commercial treaty with France has been refused }

4th. Why this Province has been kept out of the millions due it?

éth, Why Sir John insists on depriving the Pro- vinees of the licensing power ?

6th. Why all legislation at Ottawa aims at the destruction.of the Provincial autonomy ?

7th. Why Caron’s organ until latety contribut- ed to shape public opinion against Kiel’s ex- ecution /

Sth. Why SirJohn’s chief organ is allowed without protest from the French-Canadian Ministers to heap insults on French-Canadians ?

oth. Why Sir Hector Langevin systemaiically yields when Quebec's righis are at stake?

lth. Why this Province plays such a subordin-

ate role in Coufederation !

The Orange Versus the Green.

The Grand Grange Lodge of Ireland heid a meeting iu Dublin, on the 21st inst., to devise means for opposing the scheme of Home Rule for Ireland. A large number of peers and several loyalist members of commons were present. A manifesto, addressed to the Orangemen of Great Britai., was drafted. The manifesto is substantially as follows: Fhe aspect of affairs in Ireland was never more menacing than at present. Protestantism in three of four provinces is at the mercy of avowed conspirators endeavoring to over- throw the rule of the Imperial Government. Tho duty of all true Irishmen is plain, while unwaveringly upholding Orarge prin- ciples and abating one jotof our conscien- tious opinions we shall cordially welcome all willing to assist in keeping intact the bend of unity with the great empire with which we are proud to form not an unim- portant part. Our little band of loyalsts finds itself in a _ posi- tion of unequalled difficulty. We are greatly outnumbered by members of the Irish National League, delegates, direct heirs and successors of the land league, which even a liberal gcvernment was forced to suppress as illegal, and which is answerable for many thousands of cut- rages. A small but firmly united band of loyalist members of the House of Commons, by energy and determination, may con- vince their English brethren that the luyalists represent the industry and intelli- gence of Ireland. If the Parnellite faction

does not succeed wholly in its endeavor

to sever the union by degrees one of the first points which it will seek to obtain will be the complete control of educational matters. This would give the Parnellites control over the rising genera- tio, while the command of the police would make them masters of the present genera- ation. If the police should be commanded by Mr. Parnell’s nominees, as would cer- tainly be the case in the event of Par- nellite demands being granted, loyalists would be placed in a worse position than that of their ancestors under the rule of T¥reonnell. The slightest relax- asion of the ties of union will even- tuate in the separaiion and the ultimate rein of the country. It will establish a drill ground for hostile armies and dock- yards for foreign fleets in the most vulner- able part of the empire. Therefore we appeal to those realizing our imminent peril to stand shoulder to shoulder in defence of the union, and in promotion of the ciuse of liberty and religion, for God, Queen and country.” ‘

The manifesto is signed by Lords Erin and Enniskillen.

THE DAILY

THE SUBWAY.

LARGE AND INFLUENTIAL MEETING AT SUMMERSIDE—SENATCR HOWLAN’# SCHEME UNANIMOUSLY ENDORSED,

Marker Hart, Summerside, was last evening crowded with an appreciative audience, which assembled to hear Hon. Senator Howlan explain his Subway Scheme. W. G. Strong, Esq., occupied the chair: and on the platform were Hon, John Lefurgey, Hon. Wm. Campbell, Jas. Richards, Esq., M. P. P., David Rogers, Richard. Hunt, Neil MeKelvie, David Montgomery, Thos. Pope, Esqs., and Rev. Mr. NeNab.

In front of the platform was a large well-executed oil painting of a subway, while on the Chairman’s table was a model of a subway and the workshop from which it is to be built, with the machinery, etc.

At haif past seven o’clock the Senator commenced his address. He first referred to the terms of union by which we were to reccive continuous communication winter

and summer with the Mainland, and drew attentiun to the attempts made by both Governments to

curry out these terms and their failure to do so to the satisfaction of the people. He

had spent the past three years ia working | 6m

up a scheme which would enable the Government to carry out the terms. He was confident of its success, and had great faith in the benefits it would de to the people of Prince Edward Island. The Federal Government in order to keep faith with the Provinces constructed the Inter- colonial Railway at an immense cost, and it has now completed another great railway in order to carry out the terms on which British Columbia entered the Dominivn. The people of P. E. Island paid as much per capita towards the construction of these great roads as the people of the other Provinces, and they, therefore, had the same right as British Columbia to demand that the Terms be carried out to the letter. He believed that only bya subway or a tunnel could the Terms be carried ont, and as a subway was within tho limit of the Dominion finances, he favored it.

Senator Howlan then referred to the dif- ferent subways which have been construc’ ed in other parts, and which have been suc cessful. But, he asked, suppose one was never built before, is that any reason one should not be attempied now? He referred to the great strides sciences has made within the last half centnry, in railroads, tolegraphs, telephones, &c., and gave various instances of the ridiculous objections raised to them when they were first apcken of by their respective invent-

ors, But they were accomplish. ; and this goos to show that there are cer- tain men capable of proving whether

or not these great projects were feasible. Before he submitted the Subway scheme to the people or the Governmert he had it examined by nine of the first Engineers in America. They all testified to its feasi- bility in strong terms, ‘‘and,” said the Senator, ‘‘ if I err in bringing it forward I err in good company.”’ He then turned to the model on the chairman’s table, and explained tothe audience the manner in which subways are constructed, and then to the oil painting, showing how they are situated and embedded in the bottom of a river or strait. The question of buoyancy of a subway, and its probable destruction by ioe, showed from charts that no iceberg suffi- ciently large to interfere with the subway eould float through the straits, owing to shal- low water on shoals to west. To prove this more clearly, ie quoted several authorities, showing that as a fact the ice never ground- ed in the mid-channel at the Capes, There- fore there waa no fear of interference by the ice or anything else.

In conclusion the Senator said that he had the utmost faith in the project

backed up as it was by the strong- est engineering ability in America. Therefore it would not be much

trouble for the Dominion Government to get competent engineers to pronounce whether or not the project is feasible. After disposing of the financial part of the question to the satisfaction of the audience, and stating that if the feasibility of the subway could be established, he thought we had helped the Government out of a difficulty, and showed them a way of keeping faith with the people of Prince Edward Island; bat uutilthe Government satisfied the minds of the people on the matter, we will never be contented. He then cinsed by complimenting the audience on their beautiful new hall, and thanked them for the patient hearing they gave him.

Dayid Rogers, Hsq., mado a brief speech. He thought the scheme was prac- ticable and it was the duty of the people to unanimously ask the Dominion Government to hold a survey todecide whether or not a subway was feasible. He therefore moved the following resolutions :—

Whereas, Having heard the Hon. Senator How- lan’s address on the subject of a Subway across the Straits of Northumberland, from Cape Tra- verse on the Island side to Cape Tormentine in New Brunswick, and having scen the model and heard the Senator’s explanations as to construc- tion, route, cost, ete., this meeting is of opinion that the work can be built for asum within a limit that the people of this Province have a just right to demand the Dominion Government to expend in fulfilment of the terms of Confedera- tion.

Therefore Resolved, That the Dominion Gov- ernment be respectfully requested to cause such inquiry to be made, by surveys and otherwise, as will determine the practicability of the work with a view of carrying out the said terms of Confederation,

Hon. John Lefurgey had much pleasure in seconding the resolution. The Senator, he said,deserved the thanks of the audience for the magnificent exposition of his scheme. We are all well aware that there isa great deal of complaint becsuse the Federal Government have not carrie? the Terms of Union with regard to winter com- munication satisfactorily. It appeared to him that this was the reason why Senator Howlan sect abont working up the Subway. He believed it was the only way the Terms could be carried out, ard he wou'd therefore give the Senator his cordial support. The scheme looked well, and the general government should take means to see whether or not it is feasible. If the engineers say that it can be built, the Guv- ernment will, in order to satisfy the peuple

GEORGE FORBES, Secretary,

DR. JENKINS VS OWEN MACCAREY.

This case, adjourned from Monday last, was called at the Stipendiary Magistrate's Court this forenoon.

Dr. Jenkins said it would simplify the case very much if McCarey would put his charges against the management of the hospital in writing, and in the interests of the public, and in justice to all concerned, he thought this should be done,

The Magistrate said he conevrred in this view of the matter. On looking into it he found that he had no jurisdiction in the case as laid ; and theretore the summonses ‘would have tobe dismissed.

MeCOarey was walking out of court with- out saying anything when Dr. Jenkins asked him again if he would put his charges in writing.

McCarey—‘I’ll see my lawyer about it.”’

Exeunt McCarey.

Court adjourned.

Messrs. Curtis, Davis & Co., makers of the ‘*‘ Welcome Soap,” have issued a panel picture showing two beantiful young ladies, and appropriate surrounding scenery. Beautiful in this caso means a beautiful physical development—siriking in contrast with the dndish and vulgar style adopted by some of our manufacturers, In this Wel- come Soap picture is represented honesty, purity, intelligence, refinement, and those characteristics which are pronounced by the pure and virtuous as beautiful. These pictures are heing adorned = with costumes representing different sea- sons, occupations, and customs of dress and nationality, which, with the variety of colors and materials of dress, make a@ most excellent picture, entirely different from anything we have ever seen, and Messrs. Curtis, Davis & Co., can, in this case, consistently claim to be the in- ventors of tiis new and novel mode of picture finishing, that stands out more prominent than any oil painting possibly can.
