To Be Explained

Last year the Governmert did as much aa they could to disparage the stock on the Government Farm. The Premier is re- ported—in leaded long primer said in the course of the Budget Speech

as having

**1 am informed by a reliable authority that the stock on the farm ia a disgrace. 1 | am told that the Shorthorns there are very | poor indeed, not fit to be on any ordinary farm, and certainly uaoworthy of a Govern- ment farm. I have that from a very high authority on the subject.”

In the face of this statemen: of the Pre- mier, the Government actually suld the produce cf this stock throughout the coun- try aa first-class, pure-bred animals, per-! mitting their suctioneers to enlarge—as only suctioneers can enlarge—upon the werits of the animals, and giving them cer- tiGeates of pure-bred pedigree to present to the lucky parchaser. Mr. Shaw, the active and talented representstive of the farmers of New Perth and Cardigan, brought out thia notable fact, and called attention to it im the Legislature. It follows either that the Premier wrongly and unnecessarily de- the Stock Farm stock, or else the Government of which

the leader has been party to * fraud—a fraud which every one would exclaim against as mean aod disgraceful ana scandalous if it were perpetrated by » private farmer or stock raiser. It will be admitted, we think, that discredit will attach to the Government and their Leader, ic respect to this particular, no matter which horn of the dilemma they may seize.

The Premier said a few days ago, when attention was directed to his statement of lest yoar, that there had been, in the mean- time, & considerable ‘* weeding out” of the Stock Farm Stock. that sold, on the ground that they were not to the mark. It was in respect to one of these (an Ayrshire) that the Scotch dele- who was here last fall exclaimed ** What an admirable coo ; she would show well in Scotland.

It was pointed out that

her horns were too large. ‘‘Uh no,” said he, ** not at all too large. lt was said that she was rather too large. ‘‘ Yes,” said

he, ** she’s on the lacge side ; but that’s a guid fault. She's an excellent coo of her kind and would bring twenty pounds in Scotland at her calving.” Such were the animals sold off the Stock Farm last fal!—at

might say that the stock was *‘ weeded out

Notes and Commeuts. ~The travelling expenses of the Com- wissioner of Public Works from the time he took office till the end of the year— about nine months—amounted to $300.24, with $65 additional for horse hire. Not so bad for a great economist who travels with » “free pasa” in his pocket | We are requested to state that, in con- formity with the late Sir John Macdonald's wishes, the Baroness Macdonald of Earns- clitfe has entrusted to Mr. Joseph Pope the examination and classification of Sir John Macdonald's papers, with a view to the publi- cation of a volume of memoirs at a laterda’e, The Baroness desires it to be understood that the statements which have appeared indicating that these papers, or any cf them, are, or havo been, accessible for bio- vraphical purposes to any one other than Mr. Pope, are entirely unfounded.

~ Premier Peters is not alone in being brought face to face with direct taxation. It appears that despite the loud boasts of a substantial surplus; of a buoyant revenue; of resources inexhaustible, and no sho: tage of money till posterity takes possession at some distant period—despite all this, the Gevern- ment are now actually not only face to face with direct taxation, but are actually resort- ing to itin a sueaking and underhand way. The Empire reports that after all their con- tident assertions and bragging declarations of solvency and even wealth, this very session witnesses two determined attempts to raise cash by direct taxation.

‘** After many unfortunate, but unavoid able delays, | have this day received a large bale of clothing for which I have to thank you. The contents are most wel- come and wiil prove a great boon to the Indian population among whom I have the privilege cf working. The Government, that is the Indian Department, are doing a great deal for the treaty Indians, by teach- ing them to farm and raise cattle; but this of course constitates a great change of life for the Indians, who are ofetn in want ef food and* slwaya but poorly clad. My plan is give away clothing where required, to the _ sick and very old; to make the able bodied mén and womens do some work in return for the clothing, and thus teach them a proper in- dependance. This plan take? away the danger of their outwardly becoming Christiana for the sake of the loaves and fishes. - + * My iaterperter bas a salary ef $300 pe: anuurm, and asthe Bishop is unable to help me out of the diocesan funds owing to prior calle, 1 am obliged to raise this eum as best I can.

AnricLerxy Meetinc.—The regular meet- ing of the officers of the Artillery Brigade of this Province ‘was held inthe office of Captain Morson, Adjutant of the Brigade, last evening at 8 o'clock. Lieut.-Colonei Moore occupied the chair. After the trans- action of some routine business, and a general discussion of Artillery matters, regimental and band committees were ap- pointed as follows: Regimental—Surgeon S. R. Jenkins, Captain J. A. Longworth, Leut. E. Stewart. Band—Captain Mor- son, Captain H. M. Davison, Lieut. E. D. Steras. We understand that Col. Moore informed the meeting that he had received a letter from Mr. L H. Davies, M. P., stating that the Department of Militia had recommended to the Dominion Government the payment of the sum of $82 a year for life co the widow of Corporal Rufns Mac- donald, who was killed at Quebec last year.

‘* Harey Homes.”—This was the subject of the lecture given last evening in the Christian Meeting House, Upper Great George Street, by, Rev. W. H. Hard- ing, of Summerside. Mr. William Harris, of the Post Office Department, occupied the chair. There was a fair audience pre- sent, but the discourse was deserving of a much better house. The lecturer said the happiness of a home depended more upon the character of the members of the house- bold than upon the style of the furniture or the surroundings. Love is one of tle most essential elements in a bappy home, as it produces a mutual desire for each others welfare. Some of the prinsipal canses of unhappy homes, he pointed out, were intemperate husbands, scolding wives and wayward children. Some very good advice was giver slong these lines, and the lecturer related several amusing ancedotes by way of illustration. After the lecture the chairman made a brief address complimenting the learned lecturer, and the proceedings were closed with the singing of ‘Home

Sweet Home.”’

there are to be three races. The fi ee-for-all way fi!}, but where are the five {our-year- olds to come from? Everyone k iows that we have two four-year-olds about as fast as apy horse on the Island, aid who is going to enterhis four. year-oldagainst those two,’ Consequently it will net fil. Again, the idea of §4 year-old race in August is 4s

Who, I would like to know, wants to go to aee little colts fooling around the track. It will not fill, for I only know of one year-old in Queen’s County that is in train- ing, and he is owned inthecity. Who knows but it was made for him, or did he make it himself / So much for the August meeting Now, the fall meeting appeara worse. The stallion race that always drawa the big crowd is pnt down for the paltry suis of two hundred dollars, and I co not believe there will be a cup aa there was on a former occasion. Now, all must admit that if Thuraday had to be fine we would have inside of that fence twelve thousand people ; and what were they coming to see ? The stallion race, of course. Now this fall they give five hundred dollars for a free- for-all, not even allowing pacers, as they do in August, and open to Canada and the United States. The consequence will be that a couple of old ringers will come from the States and take the five hundred del- lars otf the Island. Why not give the stallions the five hundred, and give a man some inducement to fit his horse. We have horses enough in the Maritime Prov- inces to make a good race and an exciting race if the programme was not made to suit certain parties. What horse-breeder on thia Island wants to pay to see some old ringers from the States win the free-for-all. Had the five hundred been given to the stallion race, you bet your life you would seearace. We would have all the good ones from the Maritime Provinces here, but they will not come for two hundred, and that is the reason the stallions only get the two hundred, su as to keep those good horses back. It is nearly time that the shareholders would be more careful of whom they would elect. Out of the seven directors there is only one who knows any- thing about getting up a programme aa it should be, and he has an outsider to dic- tate to him. Hence the very unfair pro- gramme for the ensuing season.

Roston Markets.

Boston, March 24.

POTATOES Receipts continue liberal aud there isa large supply at the roads, but with more favorable weather this week there has been an increased demand and the market closes with a fairly steady tone. The best Houlton Rose are selling as want- ed for seed at 60c. with Aroostook stock at 55c. Maine Hebrons range from 45 to 60c. according to quality. Dakota Red and Burbanks quiet at quotations.

Eces.—We have to report a continued dull and unsettled market. Receipts have been lighter but are still more than enough to meet the demanand, and stocks held held here are steadily increasing. Buyers are taking only such lots as they have im- mediate use for, fully reafizing that there is a large supply here held on shippers’ limit, that must come on the market soon- er or later. Sales the past week have been mainly at 144 to 14%c., but at the close 144c. is the top for western.

Oats.—The tone of trade has been dull during the week with the market well sup- plied. The close is lower, No. 2 whites not being «quotable above 38} and 39c., while No. 3 whites are dull at 374 at 38c. Clipped oats arejdull at 39 at 40c. for good lots as to quality.

OatTMBEAL.—Quiet at $4.40 to $4.50 per bbl. for ground and $4.50 to $4.75 for cut and rolled.

Y. W. ©. A.—At the annual meeting of the Young Women’s Christian Association in the lecture room of the Y. M. C. A., on Saturday evening, the following officers were elected for the ensuing year :—

The reports of the Secretary and Treas- urer were very interesting and instructive. This institution is doing a good work in the community. A prominent feature of its work is the giving of letters of introduc- tion to young women from the Island who go to the United States to earn a living, which letters ensure kind treatment at the hands of kindred institutions and aid in obtaining respectable employment. The meeting was presided over by Mrs. Wil- liam Heard,
