Keputation.

To the farmers of this Province, the re- putation of the Province is mont y—as well as something more. This fact has been re peatedly demonstrated For instance, few years agu, some cargoea of oats were shipped hence in bad condition and the reputation of the Province was consequently injured in the British market. In that market it has since then been much more difficult for us to sell oats. On the other hand, careful breeding and feeding has raised the reputation of the Province in respect to its horses ; and horse buyers in the States and elsewhere, now constantly resort to our shores. There can be no question that the success of Islanders abroad is, in great part, due to the reputa- tion they have gained for intelligence and industry—making it comparatively easy for them to obtain good positions from which to raise to higher things. A few years ago, four medical students were registering at McGill University. As soon as the Registrar heard that they were from Prince Edward Island. he remarked : ** You will need to do weil here, for your Province bears a high reputation for you to msintain,”

Islauders at home, as well as Islanders abroad, ought to keep constantly in wind the reputation of their Province. When selling oats and potatoes, the farmers should see to it that the “tailings” and **little ones” are carefully removed. When feeding and dressiag pork, the reputation of the Peovinee should be borne in mind. A smnall, immediate gain may, perhaps, be made hy individual farmers, who are not careful to select and prepare their products for market; but the farmers and the Province at large will lose in- calculably if its good reputation be not well maintained. The mere fact that an article of food has come from Prince Ed- ward Island shculd beto the consumer abroad a guarantee that it is excellent. Our ship- pers should be mure careful than they are regarding the quality of the produce which they purchase. A farmer complained the other day ; *‘I pick all the small and bruis- ed potatoes cat of those which I sell, but I notice that the merchant gives just as mach to those who take no care in this re- spect as they do to me’”’ We hope that both farmers and shippers will, during the present season, and in future years en deavor to maintain and raise still higher the reputation of the Island Province.

Notes and Comments.

The British farmer, as well as the British manufacturer, will suffer this year if reports of disaster to the crops are not largely exaggerated. The greatest shortage is said to be in wheat. If this be true the prices of wheat and flour will probably be raised ere long.

The trade generally will be pleased to learn that the “slaughter” is over. We learn that the dry goods merchants who in- tend to remain in business have returned to normal prices, As the *‘slaughter” affect ed all branches of the supply business, all will rejoice that money is again permitted io circulate in the usual channels.

-In his second annual report, the Dom. inion Dairy Commissioner, Mr. James W. Robertson, makes grateful acknowledgement to the newspapers of Canada. He says they have given much ‘‘public spirited assistance in attracting the attention of farmers to the possible benefits which would accrue to them. selves aod all other industrial, commercial and professional interests from the adoption of the best methods of dairy farming.”

Che Nineteenth Ceatury has an article by Sir Julius Vogel upon “A Zollvereia of the Lritish Dominions.” Some system of the sort the writer deems essential to any scheme of feieration. The necessity for doing some. thing in the direction of federation, Sir Julius Vogel recognizes as imperative. In answer to the question, “Why not leave well alone ?’ he s+ys that the want of enthusiasm for fed eration displayed by the Colonies is the meas. ure ot the danger of the disintegration of the tritish Empire. For, he adds, the question is now bot one of federating the Empire, but of guarding agaiast iis disintegration.

The Montreal Gazette proposes that the Manitoba School case shall be referred to the Supreme Court for the purpese of ascertaining whether or not the Duminion Governmenthave the power to interfere inthe ; terms of the petition of Archbishop Tache. j The Gazette ssys : ‘*What the minurity de- mand now is remedial legislation, but be- fore the Government says yea or nay to that request, the cardinal point of their right of interference must be clearly estab lished. What would avail on either side, for instance, if the Government should to morrow make its decision Upon the petition of Archbishop Tache for remedial legisla- tion, uuder the appellate clauses of the Confederation act, only to discover subse- quently that such action was an unconsti- tutional assumption of power ?”

An Ottawa despatch says: A thin blue book, Commercial Bulletin No. 5, has been issued, dealing with the trade in horses between Canads and Great Britain. It appears from this return that whereas the number of horses exported to Great Britain in 1890 was only 1265, in L891 it arose tu 1,222, and in 1892 there was « still further increase to 1,369. S'multsneously with this the export to the United States, which in 1890 was 16,118, fel! nxt year to 9,908, and in 1892 it again dropped tu 9,261. This was no doubt due tw the | action o: the McKinley tariff Canada| lust through that measure one half the |

The P. E. Island Tunnel.

(The Ottawa Daily Citizen.)

The Free Press of last evening repro- duced an article from the Summerride, P. E. Island Pioneer, stating that the boring ypcrations in the Straits of Northumber- land had ceased under peculiar circum- stances. The erticle in question ,+ffirms that no substantial progress has been made in the boring on either side of the straits. This is quite incorrect; the land borings on the New Brunswick side, and also the sub- matine borings for four miles out into the channel have been completed, and the re- sults are considered satisfactory. As far as these tests go the sandstone forma- tion is found to be continuous, and the prospects are that the Northumberland tunnel can be cheaply constructed. The article goes on to relate that quar- rels between the engineer aud the driller led to the abandonment of the enterprise. This is not the case, as work will be resumed in June n-x-. The rexson for suspending work this seasen was that the stormy weather of the Iste autumn and winter months makes it impossible to pursue boring operations under the sea. With regard to the «xpenditure of money by government the bala: ce of the apprepria- tion is considered armple to complete the work. There was no waste of funds, as payments were made through Mr. Hendry, goverument engineer, only for what was actually accomplished.

Lord Tennyson married at the age of furty- one, Which is one reason perhaps why it is thought that he was disappointed in love while young. His wife was a niece of Sir John Franklin. Her father, Mr. Seliwood, a lawyer by profession, is reported to have been somewhat unfavorably imprissed with the alliance at first; but afterward he was entirely reconciled to it. Before the marriage Tevnyson had, of course, achieved fame.

News Notes.

The definite announcement made by the Marquis of Ripon that losses incurred by British sealers during last year’s modus vivendi will be made good is being received with great satisfaction in British Columbia. In the further fact that the United States Government is stated to have agreed to compensate sealers for abstaining from the exercise of their rights during the arbitra- tion, if American claims are rejected, will be seen another vindication of Lord Salis- bury's diplumacy.

The Yankee cable story about the Prince vf Wales going shooting or fishing rather than attend the funeral of Lord Tennyson is false on the face of it. No man in Eng- land is more punctilious about the pertor- mance Of his public duties than is the Prince, and we may be assured that only some entirely unexpected circumstance kept him away. In any event it will be found, when the English pzpers come to hand, that he carefully sent « representative and that the last thing intended would be any slight to the memory of one who wrote so loving'y and loyal'y of the Queen, his mother, and of the late Prince Consort.
