“HOW NOT TO DO IT-”

A correspondent at Alberton writes: “The T. A. Stewart is here this evening.

| She lost the Dredge, Stanley ard Henry | Aitken en route,and is earning $25 a day at | our wharf. "It seems very doubtful that the | service the dredge may render at Malpe- | que will balance the cost of sending her there and bringing her back. If the dredge had been sent to the north side im the spring with orders to improve all the principe] shipping places along the north coatt, there would be reasou in the move. ment. Buttoseaod her there now, when the season is well-nigh ended, with two expensive steamers to tow her, and anoth~ er expensive steamer to attend upon her after she gets there, and to pass by Cascumpecand other points in order that the may go direct 1o Malpeque, where the

places on the south side need dredging and could be dredged during the fine days that are being absolutely lostonthe trip to Malpeque—this seems the height of mad. ness, ard illustrates the “How not te do it” Administration to a T,

—The newspapers of Paris in comment~ ing On the riots, are unanimous in pro-~ nouncing the situation of a serious char~ acter. The Conservative and Nationalist organs accuee the Government of provok- ing the trouble by unjustifiable arrests. The Gaulois reproaches the Cabinet for not having taken measures to prevent the excesses, The Radical, Revisioniat and Republican papers insist upon more firra.. ness on ihe part of the Ministry and declare the ministers must defend the republic against eecret machinations and attempts at an uprising. The radical press protests against the disorders and hopes the police will prevent a recurrence of them. The Figaro expresses the belief that the troubles are over and says the Govern- ment has decided toact with the utmost rigor against M. Guerin, the President of the Anti-Semite League, who, with some companions, has been barricaded in the

headquarters of the League since August 12th.

—On the 3lst of July the Liberal gov. ernments of Nova Scotia and P. E. Island had overdrawn from the banks the sum of $386,409. How much of this amount is due by the government of P. E, Is!and cannot be told.

PARTY ORGANIZATION. Space io Tue Examiner is just now fu'ly

occupied; aad as Mr. McCarthy imports

some new matter into the discussion, we have decided to withhold his second some- what lengthy letter io replyto Mr. Buote —atleas\ for the present. Nothing can, in our Opinion, be gained by a continuance of the discussion. The importance of party organization, which Mr, McCarthy insists upou, has repeatedly been proved. We are glad to know that in the first dis- trict of Prince as well as in the third dis trict of Queen’s, and throughout the Pro vince, the Liberal Conservatives are alive tothe factand have active men,such as Mr McCarthy, to attend to the

organization,

essential that honest men shou!d organize

against those unscrupulous politicians in

which holds the bal« two with

power between the perties. While we Mr. McCarthy upon many points, we also agree with Mr. Buotewhen he says :— “We look to the principle above the maa.” By keeping this sentiment in view and re~ solutely frowning down personal jealous- ies and bickerings, the people will be able to organize aud co-operate, and thas to secure @ better government.

THE PATRIOTS INDIG NATION

—_— —

Sir,—The Patriot is too righteously in- dignoant about Peter McNutt’s mudhole and the dredge. People who know anys thing about the job say that yon struck the aail fairon the head. Just thiak of it. Thecountry is paying enormous ex- penses for this dredge, Prince Edward. Many places are suffering for want of dredging; and this 22ad day of August, the dredge ic on the nigh sea, towed by the steamer Stanley and the tug Genry Aitken, and accompanied by the T A Stewart, Farquharson’s $25 a dayer. We bad a visit from The Stewart, which lost her flotiila off Miminigash,and didn’t know where to find them. She “hugged” our wharf bere, and was inspected by the faith - ful, who thought $25 a day a snap for the generous whole-souled Premier. The great majority, gritty as they might be, thought Sir Louis pretty fresh to be ang- led, by Peter MacNutt’s calling his schoon- er after bim, into sending an expensive dredge ajl around the coast with the steamship Stanley and two steam tenders. Cascumpec wants dredging badly, Would that some ungodly grit would build an old hulk, and callit Linger Lounger Lou.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—— ee

—Mr. Eroest Pacaund is, we are tod, the chosen candidate—chosen by Sir Wil frid Laurier—for the repreeentation of the connty of Lotbiniere, in the House of Commons. Pacaud is the hero of the Bay Chaleurs railway steal. He is an ol hand at“ the machine.” His election is rot atall unlikely. With Paeaud at hend, the position of Sir Wilfred will be strengtbened,—in eo far as the present gov~ erning class of Canadais concerned. Pa- caud, and Scrimgeour, and Tarte are, mora!ly, well matched.

—War in the Transvaal seems to be unavoidable. Lord Salisbury has pre- served peace with honor, in respect to many nations. But the insensate Boers are evidently determined to try conclusions with their Svuzerain. Kruger is, perhaps, more the creature of the time and the exponent of Boer opinion than a free agent in the matter.

St. John Sun: We have heard much of Mr. Fielding’s great surplus for the year ending June 30th, 1899. Less bas been heard of the fact that the debt of Canada increased in that year by $3.538,176 note withstanding the surplus. = oer eee =>

AN AWFUL ROAD.

Sir,—On Prince Edward Island] there are roais and roads, big roads and little roads, long roads

and short roads, broad roads and pvarrow roads,—but of all the roads which the writer bas ever waiked over, driven over or gotten over in any Other way, the road leading from the Wes‘ern road to St. Nich - olas Station “takes the cake.” Oh, Far- qubarson, Farquharson, Farqul a-son, you who claim that the roads of Prince Edward Island were never in a better condition than they are at present, you who said that the annual deficits are mainly due te the large expenditures necessary to keep the

roads in good order, if yor could but see

drive over it, and it you kaew of the indig- pation felt by those —grit and tory alike — who have occasion to use the road, you would have another good reasoo for taking the advice of Tue Examiner, and get out of the way to make room fur one more worthy than thou.

Leaving the Western road, the first part of the road is covered with about a foot of smal!-sized trees Jaid across it, with just a few shovelfuls of earth thrown on top, barely enongh to keep it in place, then comes @ place full of holes, up and down, up and down, then some more trees, and then the part which can beseea from the train windows when at the station is in a fairly good condition. Altogether it would be hard to imagine a worse road. We cannot suppose that a worse piece of road exists ou P. KE. Isiand. We hope that there are none as bad. The only good thing about the road is that it is short; the most inconvenient thing about it is that it is used to a large extent. Messrs Yeo and Murray, who operate a brickyard on the former’s farm on the Western road, have to haul alloftheir brick over it in order to ship it at St. Nicholas Station, Ther, betore hauling their last lot of brick,turned out with seven men and repaired a part of it at their own expense; otherwise they would not have been able to haul over it at all. Mr. Josepn Reeves who has a brick- yard at St. Nicholes has to haul all his brick aod clay over it, and anyone wishing todrive {rom Wellington or the Weetera road to or through the thriving settlement of Muddy Ceeek, or vice versa, has to go over this piece of road,

We hope that the Premier, or the Com~ missioner of Public Works, or someone, late though it is, will attend to the matter at once, It is astanding disgrace to this section of the country,
