FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL H. ltlli 5

`iliE LEGISLATIVE KEIORIAL.

The Provincial Legislature yesterday

by n. unanimous vote adopted the memor- ial which appears elsewhere in this issue, with regard io communication with thi- Mainland. We regard this action us is remarkably favorable and auspicious out- come of the agitation and discussion which has taken place throughout the Province during several months past. At. first public opinion was in it somewhat chaotic condition with regard to the best remedy for our grievances. There was however from the flrstn general tuming of all eyes to the Capes Route ns the spot to which we must ultimately look for un open gateway which would supply the inlssingliuk in our chnln of communion-

tions sud give us rt means of constant in- gress and egress to relieve the winter'

irnprinonmeiit under which our people have so iorrgsuffered.

Tire meeting at Emerald on .lannary 30

closely followed the entire cesisution of steam comrnunicittion with the lilainlurltl.

We dld not then know how great were to

be the loses und suffering tobe entailed in the months to come. Even that meeting _wns held under difllcultles from the- wlnter snow and blocked roiuls. It rc~ suited in an adjournment to meet in con-

vention nt Cliarlottetown on February 14 and Cnpt. Joseph Read was appointed to issue notices for public meetings lu various places about the Provinces in the

interim, on February 7, to elect delegates to the provincial Convention. In the meantime continuous storms had made the railwrty and highways impnssable and succession ailjournmerrts of the convent-

ion, us well as successive prorogntions of the Legislature becumc necessary. It was not till 10th March that the Conven-

tion yr as held tn this city, resulting in the

appointment of 11 1’eoplc`s Delegation to 0tt.a\\'l\ instructed by resolution to ask the Government for the construction of n

tunnel at the Capes und it --powerful icc breaking stcnmer to ussist in keeping the comuiunlcution open as fur ns migiitl be til till the tunnel shall be completed.

In due time. us soon its steam communi-

cation was partially re-estnirllsheti, four of the nppointed delegates proceeded Lo Ottawii, others being detuined by busifiess exigencics. At the beginning of April the delegutcs, attended by the Senntors and liiembcrs of the Commons from this Pro-

vince, were given u prolonged hearing by the Premier und Finance Minister of

Cuniuin mid presented our claims for the

tunnel and winter steamer hnckcd by thc resolutions of the Convention. A furmnl meniorlnl to tha like effect- was left with the Ministers by the delegates. All of which will be more fully reported by them nt. the public meeting in Market. flallthis evening. ln the meantime our representatives in the Commons had for- cibly presented the hard conditions under

wlilcli the Province was laboring and lmd strongly advocated the tunnel as the only adequate and permanent remedy. Now we have the unanimous resolution of the

Provincial Legislature along the same lines, setting forth t-he tunnel as the best and only ndcqunte remedy for our winter isolation. Thus has the public sentiment' of the people of the Inland been brought to a focus sud concentrated with bumlngi energy upon the 'one central and ulI-lm- i portant fact that wc urgently need nnd must have constant stcum communication

by rail with the Mnlnland of Cnnndi\.‘

The dclegnics to be hercnftcr sent- to Ottawa hy the Govemment will tinrl their l way prepared for them, nnd,baol1ed up by the rcsolutlons of the Pe`ople‘s Con- vention, hy the united voiec of our repro- sentutives ut Ottawa] rind now by the

,inhabitant of the Island is be con-

_unsnimous and hearty votc of the Pro- vincial Legislature they must be able to challenge the imnrediiito and earnest consideration of the Government of Canada. Our case is strong beyond com» parlson and to a now thoroughly united people anything is possible. Wo can only :uid that thc unanimous action of the Legislature in endorsing the tunnel is in ‘our opinion a mutter upon which every

Krutuiated. We trust it may mark an important era in the progress and ud- vaucement of the Province-the beginning of better days. And it is especially gratifying to The Guardian to find the

genemi sentiment of our people andthe iwtlon now taken by the Legislature so closely and heurtily In accord with views and opinions to whichtliis _iournal liirs been so earnestly cormuittcd.

@._i.__.__ Alberton and \Vest Prince Bunnl of

'l‘rnde have made an appointment three weeks hence to lrertr from the delegates

who went. to Ottiuvn on the tunnel ques- tion.

llcnr the delegates of thc I’ro\'inciul

Convention report on their mission to Ottawa nt Market. Hull to-night. The chair will be takeri ut8o'i-lock by Donald Nicholson, Esq. Clxalrrunn of the Conven- tion.

The Telephone Company has il bill lm-

fore the Legislature which asks for un

extension of its exclusive privileges. All measures of this class require closc scrutiny, und ample tlrnc should be given

for the public to become ucquaint-ed with the provisions of this bill before definite action is token upon it. .lust now ull

western Cuniulu is ringing with tlic cull for telephone reform.

“It is quite evident that the feeling in

the air is for thc tunnel." says The Piri- riot. This is true not only in this Pro- vince. but in the other Provinces as well, from Sydney to Victoria. \\'e believe thc fact that the other Proviiiccs have been nirukencd iw they have been isioii con- nlilernblc extent dur to the 1-fl'qri_e of th.. delcgntcs who were sent to Ottirwii and who will report upon their mission ton. public meeting to-night.

WHAT CAUSES SNORING.

When asleep. people that snore brenilic

"Cstarrhozonc" before retiring and you'll quickly cure the snoring hsrit. By de- stroying the cause of Cutnrrh and healing the membranes, Ciaturrhozone makes n complete cure in every case; ii. cleans thc nostrils, stops the dliu-barge und prevents droppir‘r`g in thc throat inn few min- utes. . othingso pleasant or certain to cure snoring, caturrh or colds as Calnrrh- ozone-thatfs worth remembering.
