MR- PROWSE’S CHALLENGE.

Mr. L. E. Prowse writes to the Patriot aod says:

‘I hereby challenge Mr. P. Blake, the Conservative candidate for Assemblyman in Charlottetown, or any one else in town ©r country, to prove that I, in my canvass of the electors, used any threatening lan- guage, or attempted to terrorize them in apy way in order to obtain their votes.”

“L. E. Prowse.”

““Ch’town, July 16, 1897.”

It will be observed that Mr. Prowse does not deny the charge that employes of the Government in this Province have been terrorized. He does not plead “not guilty” to the charge. Hedoes not attempt to explain the circumstances under which every employe of the railway workshops promised Yo vote for him—save one who bas since been discharged—and under

which the relatives and friends of em-

ployes of the railway have been constrained |

to promise that they will vote for him.

If he were real y anxious that employes of the government shall vote freely and without prejudice to their positicns, he would at once repudiate the action of the Superintendant of the railway in dis- charging Flanigan sosoon after Flanigan’s refusal to vote for him, use his influence

to have the notice of dismissal withdrawn, and assnre all government employes that they will not be prejudiced in any way by reason of votes for Mr. Blake.

THE CANVASS.

All the reports agree in this, that there

is & streng revulsion of public feeling throughout the Province against the

Peters’ Administration. The Opposition canvass has, so far, been highly encourag- ing. Itis felt that one thing and one thing Mr.

Mr. Peters seems to be aware of

ovly will save Peters—and thai is boodle. this fact; for all over the country there are the Aas in 1893, money

parties of voters at work on road +> bridges, wharves, etc. seems to be no object. Ths great point is to keep the purcbaseable vote in hand until the day of election. Not the slightest re- gard is paid to the estimates passed by the Legislature. The pubiic money is being spent with lavish hand, “wherever it will do most good.” Surveying parties are at work and every other “‘human device” to win votes from a reluctant electorate is being resorted to. Indeed it 1s questionable if the limit of the public tolerance of such

La, Presse, in speaking of Sir Wilfrid Laurier’s coming visit to Paris, says: “He will be received undoubtedly in Paris in a most respectful mauner, becoming an Koglisbh +tatesman of French origin, but itis possible that the French national heart will be little moved.

It is said that one of the cheaf features of Mgr. Sambucetti’s special report to the Pope on the growtk of Roman Catholicism in England, is the astonishing conclusion that the decrease of Methodism 1s largely due to the transference of membership in that body to membership in the chureh of Rome. At the recent Roman Catholic Congress at Hanley, Cardinal Vaughan said that the efforts of the Roman Catholics in the fatare would be mainly directed towards proselytism among the non- conformists.

Under the heading of “American Insol- ence” L Evenement say-: “ Canada is de cidedly the bete novie of Uncle Sam.Our neighbors, not content with closing their markets ‘to us, by erecting a customs bar- rier between the two countries, even forbid American soil to Canadian workingmen. The Canadian workmen who goes to work in the United States is treated no better than @ Ch naman. He is expelled from the factories or refused work,and by a sys: tem of persecution he becomes di+gusted and discouraged and returns to his own country. It is the duty of our Govern- ment to make reprisals.

Trouble is looming up at the Nova Scotia Stee] Works, New Glasgow. Two weeks ago the men accepted a cut of ten per cent. in wages which they were told was compolsory. At once however, the men formed a lodg+ of the Provincial Workinginen’s Association. The manage: ment objected and followed their objection by a notice that the services of aii who bad then jomed would not be reqnired af- ter July 24th. This notice of dismissal ailects at least two hundred hands. Hon. RK. Drummond is working with the men in perfecting their organization. What be the outcome it is hard to say.

SOME QUESTIONS TU BE ANSWERED.

Sir,—The one-man Government bas at Jast found an apologist and defender in the person of C. B. Chappeli who writes for the benefit of ** College Boy Fooled ” in your issue of the 14th. He says all the materials specified are of the very best kind, If that is true why are the government try- ing to humbug the people and fool the College students? Mr. Coappell has made asorry and poor apology. He has not answered any of my questions, but has given mesome new infirmation inreference to floor joists or beams. As Mr. Chappell is an architect be will be able to answer the following questions and let “College Boy Fooled ” ard the public know :

First, What 1s the breaking strength ofs a spruce beam 26 ft. clear span 14 inches deep and 2} inches thick uniformally loaded ?

Second, What is the safe board it will carry in a publie building to be used for a college ?

Third, How will bridging the beam with 2x3 stutf at 5 lb centres, add strength to it,

Forth, What will be the deflection of said beam.

Fifth, What effect will the said deflection have on the brick wal!, which, he says, ia ample for a building of that kind? As the architect, Mr. Chappell, says the con struction will not be of a flimsy nature, would be please prove his statement by giving the answers tothe above questions,
