OUR NEW JUDGE.

We learo that Hon. A.B. Warburton, T). C.L., was, to-day, appointed County Judge for King’s County, If all the Lib- erals are satisfied with the appointment we bave no cause for complaint, aud we heartily congratulate Judge Warburton.

The appointment will necessitate the organization of anew Government under another Premier, and the next move in the Liberal game will be awaited with interest,

THE WAR. Wira the landing of American troops upon the island of Cuba, the war bas taken on a cew phase. Already there have been several) skirmishes, in all of which the Americans have, according to their own accounts, been victorious. A somewhat eharp struggle is briefly described in our de+ patches of to-day. Though the loss of life wae small, the gallantry of the Ameri- cans seems to have beeu pretty well tested before a superior force in a more advan- tageous position. The country is evident- ly a difficult one. But having obtained possession, the Americans cau afford to take time preparatory to their attack upon Santiago. Hemmed in as they are, between the Americans and tk esea, with the Ameri- can fleets outside, it is hard to see how the Spaviards in avd” about Santiago can escape destruction or capitulation. A de-« cisive victory in the coming battle is their oply chance.

THE SUPPLEMENTARY CLAUSE.

—

Some of the Government organs have attempted a defence of the Government’s abolition of the “ Supplementary Clause.’ This clause our good Liberals once deemed to be “the sheet anchor of the Elacation Act.” The Liberals’ excuse for its repeal is that the Government cannot now afford to supplement teachers’ salares, But no reason is given why our best teachers shoult# have to bear the first brunt of the result of the Government’s bad management, incompetence, and ex- ¢ravagance. If it were necéssary to repes } the Supplementary Clause because the Gov roment has not money with which to pay the supplements, other measures of economy snd reform, affecting other de~ partments of the public service and the public at large, ought to havo been adopt- ed, so that a!l would equally feel the piuch. The teachers—our best teachers -~-those who are deemed worthy of a re- ward beyond the «mall amount of the salary fixed by statute—ought not to have been alone “ squeezed.” To incompetence, bad management ani extravagance, the Government have, in this case, added positive injastice. A body of men aad women who ought to be encouraged are cous quently discouraged,

That the workicg of the Supplementary Cianse was in some degree unsatisfactory chiefly because it rendered the amount of the Government’s yeat!y expenditures un-~ costrollable bythe Government and be-~ cause in the matter of public education it gave the richer districts an advantage over the poorzr, will be admitted. But, on the other hand, the supplements given under it had the eflect of retaining the services of the better teachers and keeping higher the standard of public educational work. We have noticed a change for the | worse in the tone and esprit de corps of our public schools since the Liberals gain - ed power; and this last unjust act of theirs murt eventually, if not at once, nave the effect of still further lowering the educa tional! status of the Province.

— Hon David Laird has been appointed One of a commission to hold an investiga- tion into the affairs of Dorchester Peniten-~ tiary. The fees of the Commission will no doubt be governed by the precedent of the coumissions held at St. Vincent de Pau! and Kingston,—so that Mr. Laird will have ance plum, Perhaps it is too much to expect that the Commissioners will all discard their politicial spectacles. But Mr. Laird, being a newspaper man, can atlord to do so, and we hope that he will, notwithstanding the bad example set by Other Liberal Commissioners.

‘Mr. Henry Burke Found Dead at His Home Last Evening.

We hear with great regret of the endden death ot Mr. Henry Burke, the well-known nureeryman. Itseems that Mr. Burke was in town yesterday, apparently in his usual health, and crossed to Southport in the 4.30 boat, having bis whee! with him. At seven o'clock he was found dead.

Mr. Burke’s wife aud daughter are in the United States,and he lived alowe at bis home on the Lot 48 Road, nearlya mile from Southport. He took hie meale at Mrs Henry’-,who lives about 200 ya-ds die- tant. About seven o’clock Mrs Henry sent a@ little girl to tell Mr. Burke to come to bis tea. When the girl entered the house she found Mr. Burke lying upou the floor be~ side achair as though he had fallen from | @ sitting position. She hurried back to Mrs | Henry’s and told what she saw. Mrs. Henry returned to the house with a neigh~ tour, and they found Mr. Burke dead.

The facts of the case were reported to Dr. Conroy, coroner, and av inquest was held. The verdict was “‘ death from nat- ural causes, ”

Mr. Burke was about 56 yearsof ag-, and was well aod favorably known through out the province. He has been troubled with an affection of the heart for some time, and itis believed thatthe exertion of riding hurriedly from the boat to his bome had a fatal effect,
