THE HAIL SERVICE-

A letter in the Examiner of the

13th instant is so extremely, though we presume ufiintcntionally, unjust to hir. Horace H.-_~ziird that it becomes the duty of 'l`ui: Gi'.\i:n1.».N to cm- rect the erroni-ions and misleading' impression it has made. The letter in question, signell “Mex-cha._.l,”speii!;s of Mr. Haszaid having prepaireii a statement in regard to our xtinter mail service and “causing it to be` published" in This GUARDIAN. Nov-' the facts of the case are that Thi: GUARDI/\_\' lirst sohcited Mr. Has '>:.~;l to prepare a statement of the dates o’ beginning and closing of t-he Cv; es mail service, with the number of trips made in each season with such other information relating thereto as co*-ld easily be put into tabular form and -preserved for future reference. We didthis because wesaw that the is formation would be of interest ani* value, and we asked M 2". Haszairfs assistance because of his willingness to oblige, and because he has more me terial of the statistical Lil ol at hand than any other citizen that we l<n0"' of. We had found, moreover, t ~ ='t ‘f Mr. Haszard were asked for info' - mat-ioriwhicli was notimniedizitely i;i -his possession lie usually knew wlie e it could be obtained. Hit reputi ti for pains-raking accuracy in all that _he undertakes is also an established one. Mr! Hzvszard is a. on-sy manfout he consented to oblig-»'Tna Guianiau and its readers. Not-liirzgf could there- _fore be further from truth than to as- a sinister object he had sought toiditrude on the public the infomation contained in the table. _Let it then be observed that the Guaanlairs object in securing and 'printing _the -table in regard to the was simply and purely to sup _ply the facts in relation to that branch of our mail service. No one has ventured to challenge the accuracy of the table. .Our object was neither ofensive nor defensive so far as any 'political party is concerned. Much less was it intended as an answer to the -charge made against the conveyance of the mails by teams between Sack- ville and Tormentine. That branch of the service must stand on its own merits.

We would like to get at the facts

as to the comparative merits of the train mail service in past years and

team service of this year between

and Tormentine. In regard

to that matter those who are attack- ling the service from day to day can render some service if they will an- swer a few questions. It is contended that the government ought to employ special trains on the ' Sackville

Tormentine Railway. Did the

late government employ special trains for the mail service on that road-'l What would be the cost oi auch special trains, if now employed? And, what would be the gain in time if such special trains were employed 'Z We have seen it stated in print that

zard at Tm; GUaRDiAN`s request in regard to the Capes service. y

Another and vital point is this :

Hive our in-ils fron: outside points been received during the past two months with greater or less prompt- ness and regularity than in the pro- vious years "l Tim Gi'.iiini_i.\' usually receives daily a larger mail than most of our large business horses and our’ subscribers and correspondents are located at hundreds of di!'i`ei~ent points on the Island and the mainland. Our own experience is that though ot-r mail service as it is leaves much role desired, and is far from what we think it ought to be made, is yet better than it' has been in past years.

\Ve are patirntly wait-ing for the

esteemed Patriot to “get rid of the rush of live matter,” in order that it mav be able to give a line or two to such dull matter as Sir Wilfrid’s refusal of prohibition !

We are glad to [ind that Councillor

Crabbe, has been moving the Council y to lake up the matter of inspection of *means and milk. If legislation is ne- cessary to give the required power as the Recorder tl-inks, it can no di-ubt be had for the asking. His Worship the Mayor also spoke out l very strongly in support of preventive mearures along the line of Dr. Mc- Le_od’s views before given to the pub- lic. The neces=ity for precautionary ine.-tures a,f__';.inst the spread of tuber- colosis ihiotfh the medium of infected mill; and me.-_t> is apparent. We trust
