Those acquainted with the political history o` this _

province .for some years past cannot but regard Mr. Bell’s recent manifesto as a joke. Mr. Bell, however, is not a conscious humorist, and his jokes are all otherwise C1’

intended. It is in the apparent seriousness of his most

ridiculous performances that the humor lies and the joke is that he himself is oblivious to the point.

During the past few sessions he has taken up prac-, Of

tically every subject that had either been worked out ‘£0 or announced as a future policy by the Government, and £19 given it to the House as his own discovery, treating it fu with as much seriousness as if it had never before been 9

"discoveries" of Mr. Bell`s were jokes, often ivearisoiriel jokes. especially when they were spun out into hours of

oratory. ` ,

His manifesto, recently published in the Patriot and

the Summerside Pioneer, is a sort of revised version of his voluminous joke in the legislature. With studied se- riousness, apparently the result of careful thought on his part, he sums up practically everything already under- taken by the Government, adds to these the things the W Government has announced as part of its future policy and gives them to the world as original emanailons from

“Education” In one profound breath Mr. Bell 'O

says the teachers should be paid a living wage and com- plains that Premier Arsenault proposes to tax the people $75,000 to pay them the living wage. Of course Mr Bell knows the Premier has no such intention; that, on the contrary, he proposes to ask the people to decide ifr themselves how the living wage shall be provided, whe- ther by special tax or by voluntary contribution. It is for the people to say whether the Act shall or shall not come into force. Mr. Bell blows hot and cold on this question and nobody knows where he stands on the _ question of teachers’ salaries; he does not know himself. S
