COAL, BAN i NOTICE. LETTERS TO THY EDITOR,

The Water Question.

Sir,—I note that the Patriot, which for a long time has been on the fence on the waterworks question, seems to come out in its issue of the 2ud inst., in its true colors.

I have noted ail along its great want of s'raightforwardness on this question. [| suppose it has been weighing on the one hand the patronage of the business men of the city, who are almost ail in favor of waterworks, and, on the other hand, the little cheap popularity of a certain party who, in this city, are opposed to any public improvement, cither because they are satis- fied to stay in the rut they have got into, or are too ignorant to understand the rights or wrongs of the matter, and are made the dupes of the clap trap which that talking- machine, Councillor Tanton and the non- sense which Charles Heartz, and such like, get off on all occasions offered.

In locking over your account of the meet- ing I was struck with the great charity you displayed in not giving a fuller report of the capital imitations, made by Messrs. Tanton and Heartz, of a stump speech usually made at a second-class negro min-

: aot te strel troop performance—a first-class troop Brick Machine For Sale would have done much better.

The Patriot writes as if there were two Now, I only have

heard one. That one is that the business

‘men of this city, who have property at

stake which they have to insure against the risk of being burnt and thus ruining them, find the rates of insurance, on account of the very inadequate supply of water and

the limited means of appling it, very high.

There is also a very large proportion of our citizens who appreciate the comfort and healthfulness of an abundant supply of These two classes brought their influence to bear last session of our house, and asked that a bill might be passed which would enable them to get up a company to sup) ly this want of water. They did not ask for any bonus from the city, they did not ask for any monopoly of the water business, simply that they be allowed to lay down their pipes, purchase what property they wanted for carrying out their works, offering to pay for what they bought either in the shape of land or Jabor and thus distribute a large quautity of money amongst our working men and others.

They had no power to force their water on any one, either for fire or domestic pur- poses, but were willing to trust to the merits of the article they had to sell to

Now, how is this, one would think, very liberal proposition met by the aforesaid ‘‘talking machine,” the burlesquer of negro stump speeches anda few more political demagogues, people who either have no property worth insuring or do not appreci- ate or understznd the comforts of an abun- dant supply of water, some of them, would, I have no doubt, be afraid of the experiment of a morning bath. I assure them, Mr. Editor, it would do them no harm, there would always be enough left of them to be recognizable by their friends, and this is the class of people who the Patriot would ask you to join with him in patting on the back and encourage in their dog in the manger policy of giving their stupid opposition to the business men and most intelligent portion of our citizens. I should be very sorry to see you go back on your good record of advocating the necessary public improvements which are required to keep us at least even with the age we live in.

The people have been shamefully misin- formed on this question, and you have only to keep on in the course you are now pur- suing, of laying the question before them, and I have no doubt that in a short time the usual good sense of our citizens will be with you.

However, if the Patriot is going to take up the anti-waterworks side of the question, I would like them to be manly enough to

Booking Stations at Baldwin’s and Peake’s Roads.

Sir,—Surely Dr.McIntyre is not so stupid as to believe that he can draw the wool over people’s eyes, by simply asking in Parliament, questions about breakwaters and booking stations. It would really seen) that he has a very low estimate of the intelligence of his constituents; for he, no doubt, imagines that his enquiries will be considered as made in the interests of the County. But sensible, unprejudiced per- sons are not so easily deceived. On the contrary, many of them will be inclined to join ‘‘A Farmer,” in the last number of the Herald, in expressing regret that the doctor was so backward in calling the atten- tion of the Ministry to the wants of his County, when his political leaders were in power. It seems that the wants of the people of Peake’s Station and vicinity never once entered his head during the five long years he sat under Grit rule. Now, how- ever, when he knows that he has no _ poli- tical influence (except, perhaps, to do harm) he inquires of the Minister of Railways as to the proposed Booking Station at Peake’s. lt is a little surprising that he should have forgotten that there is a place called Baldwin’s —a_ place fully as much entitled to increased railway accommoda- tion as Peake’s Station. I am not, Mr. Editor, one of those who blame the present Government for establishing Booking Stations, both at York and Bedford—two localities only about four miles apart. The Government, I hold, did perfectly right in meeting the wishes of the people of those two places. And, I believe, they would be

|now doing but a simple act of justice if they were toerect telegraph stations, net only at Peake’s, but alsoat Baldwin’s. The Island Railway, it is well known, was built at the expense of the taxpayers of this Province, and in operating it, now that it is built, it should be done more for the cunvenience and benefit of the people who built it, than as a source of revenue to the Dominion Treasury. In conclusion, let me say that I would like very much to see a regular Booking Station erected at Peake’s during the present summer, At the same time, let not the just demands of the people of Baldwin’s be overlooked. They have also asked for a regular Booking Station. They are justly entitled to one, and should cer- tainly get it, I remain, Yours truly, A ConseRvaTIVE. Cardigan Bridge, June 3, 1894,

CURRENT NOTES.

The business failures throughout the country for the seven days ending Friday, number for the United States 151 and for Canada 25, a decrease of 55 failures over the preceding weck.

The Yarmouth Cotton Duck Factory was put in operation on the 17th April, and is now working, says the Herald, to the entire satisfaction of its manager and owners. The first canvass turned out is for W. D. Lovitt’s new ship.

A destructive fire occurred at Annapolis, N.8., on Saturday afternoon, completely destroying the large building occupied by A. W. Corbett & Sons, the Nova Scotia Steamship Company and the Western Union Telegraphic Company. The loss is esti- mated at $35,000, insurance, $28,000.

Col. Parker, the superintendent of the Boston Exchange, is a bit of a wag, and given to saying bright things. Meeting a gentleman the other day who had recently severed his connection with an electric lighting company to return to his old pro- fession of journalism, he accosted him with: “You are the first instance oh record of a man’s giving up the electric light and going back to gas.

Logstek Fisskry.—At Shippegan, one of our Chatham factories took in one day lately, 19,000 lobsters, and 14,000 the next day. Being cool weather, the crustaceans will keep until they can be canned. This good fortune was owing to the pre- vailing northerly winds causing herring spawn to be plentiful on that coast. South- erly copcerns, where the late heavy winds aks have taken no lobsters. — Chatham orld.

“In my opinion,” said Dr. Pullman at the regular weekly meeting of the Ameri- can Temperance Union in Chickering Hall, the other afternoon, ‘‘one of tle chief causes of drink is bad food. Women in this country do net know how to cock. A man derives so little nourishment from the ordinary beefstake and dried up roast beef that our wives cook that he is alniost forced for the very want of a stimulant to go off and get whiskey; but if he were given a good juicy, nourishing beefstake he would not feel the slightest need of drink. The temperance people of this country should demand that cooking instead of music should be taught in our public schools, and when they do they will have struck a power- ful blow at intemperance.”

In January, 1882, Vanderbilt told an intimate friend who dined with him one day he was worth $194,000,000. “I believe Iam,” said Mr. Vanderbilt. ‘‘the richest man in the world. In England the Duke of Westminster is said to be worth $200,- 000,000, but it is mostly in lands and houses. It does not yield him twe per cent. a year. From now I shall be worth more than $200.000,000, and will have an income equal to six per cent, on that amount.” Vanderbilt can take life com- paratively easy on an income of $12,000,- 000 a year, and watch his wealth pile up without any effort of his. From his Govern- ment he draws $2,372,000 a year; from his railroad stocks and bonds, $7,394,320; from his miscellaneous securities, $575,695, or $10,342,045 from his investments alone. Thus every day they earn for him $28,- 334.25. Every hour sees him $1,180.25 richer, and every minute means $19.67 added to his hoard. Besides this, he cal- culates to make $2,000,000 every year by fortunate sales, It is not supposed that the recent financial crisis has seriously affected Mr. Vanderbilt’s securities.

The cold weather extends over a good part of the continent. New York reports state that there has been little real warm weather there yet, and the New York Sun of Friday says Gothamites woke up yester- day morning with incipient rheumatism in their bones, bundled themselves up ia flannels and ulsters, and went ont and shiveringly studied the altogether un- reasonable beheviour of the thermometer. Clothing merchants unpacked their winter goods te meet the sudden boom in over- coat stock. When the New York lieuten- ant of Old Probabilities climbed to his coop on the Equitable building he found the thermometer’s spirits sunken to 46, and symptoms of a breeze brewing. At 3 o'clock the wind got going at the rate of 21 miles an hour, and unroofed the spring enthusiasts who came out in straw hats. A little bit of sun came out at, 3 o'clock, and the thermometer managed to get up to 55, but slid back again quickly. A young man, with a big ulster, climbed up the fiights of iron stairs last night to expostulate with the signal service man. He found him hug- ging a stove and trying to believe that lovely June was only two days off. When asked to explain, the signal man said it was all the fault of the Northwest. The heavy rains there had chilled the whole of America east of Mississippi. Then the operator piled more coal on the fire and said it would probably be warmer to-day. Then he sighed as if he hoped the prediction might prove true,
