SiR, Sth inst fell) w subscribing himself dian.”’ to which and to whom, in the inter- e-t: of the people in this section of the coun- try. and with your kind permission, I would like to devote some little attention. The letter, if so it may be called, is one of which any author might well feel proud ; and the wonder is, that the real name of the writer did not appear at the bottom of it literary character, in justice to his readers, should not dim the lustre of his own over- powering genius by writing under the shavow of anomde plume. It is said there is potency ina name; but genius is ever eccentric, and

One would suppose, fromthe whine of “A Trve Canalian.” thatthe public of this Is- land should stand silently by, and see their public works go to destruction, rather than ‘‘bother’’ and ‘‘ pester’ our rep esentatives for not looking after our interests. They should wait, I suppose. till some repre-

ter, I will not trouble your readcrs further, as to the obje t of ‘*A True Cavadian,”” in writing that letter. It is apparent to all, and I think every generous minded Provin: ialist will join with me in despising the man «ho would sacrifice the best interests of his birth-

I suypose we must submit to the isevitable. | It is thouzht this ‘‘ shining light” rises and | sets not far from Sauris, as much about the * tw instances” cited is not geverally kuown | by persons iving at a distance, He is most | lik Jy either onr new political ‘Star of the) East” (O terrible thought!) or else some } insignificant satel ite revolving round him, and | held true to his ungenerous course by the invisible attractions of old associations, or by | the inexpicable power of a blind, partisan prejudice. Indeed, I incline to the opinion | \that our ‘‘unknown” is no other than a member of an old Tory family in our midst, | ‘that gives evidence of political extinction. | But whoever th : writer of the article referred | ‘to may be, he has grossly misrepresented | 'many of bis political friends, and belied quite! ‘as many of his political opponents ; and in} this vile attempt at an uneaviable notoriety, | he has glaringly committed a foul murder of the En-lish of our Queen’s most excellent Ma- jesty. One instance, not two, will suffice. He thinks those ‘‘Grity polticians’ should “assist” our ‘representatives’ ideas.” Hear him, “as:istideas”” I should say that was an idea sublime enough for a poet, to say nothing ofa ‘‘Grity politician.” I[ agree with him, | jhowever, that help in this direction is arg: | lently required. His witticisms, tee, are cer: | itainly sparkling. Ove instance again, ‘‘Which |made, ete., feel pretty bad ; but their hopes were raised, like the Irishman in the hod.” }

Hew

think manv of your readers will see the point in time to laugh It is unm cessary I should say that *‘a trae Cana lian” write again, and explain that joke. 16 is very important. Now, look for one moment at his logic. | The thied senteace of this remarkable compo- |

| sition, yon will notice, begins with ‘* There- ‘ 1 \fore, you will notice, Mr Editor,” etc, and it amuse d to think the above mentioned

brings ont so forcibly a strikimg sequence to ithe antecedent propesitions- -‘*( where? | i'where? Weho answers, ‘* Nowhere !’, Again, inear the end, he says: ‘‘I don’t object to! ho'ding meetings to show our members what. the majority of such meetings want, and} expect ;’ and in the very next sentence we’ fiud that ** we have two very good men now | in the Doninion Commons if they were only | le t more to their owa judgment.” 1 woud ask if there could possibly be a more direct and palpable contradiction of terms aad ideas than is cOutained in these two sentences.” I

| think ‘such dves net often oceur ; and in look- ing at this production as a whole, I would say

‘that writing for the newspapers is evidently | jnot ‘A True Canadian’s’ forte,

But by thi< time your readers are doubtless anxious to know what all this fuss is about it is simply tis: The western side of Souris Harbor has been, from time immemorial. the ship;ing port for nearly all the people living in the east end of King’s County. Since Confederation, however, this part of Souris Harbor has been neglected by the Dominion Government; and as a result, these is not ‘sufficient water to enable shippers to com- iplete cargoes of considerable size, without irunning arisk of being stranded on the way lout tothe open sea; and the volume of ship ‘ping on this side of the Harber has neces- lgarily somewhat decreased. Nevertheless, it i still retains its old respectability among the [important shi piog places on the Island ; and ‘a large section of the country fiud it not only

convenent, but absolutely necessary, to have th ir produce shipped here. this, too, is the only safe place in Souris Harbor in which to ilay uv vessels during the winter, and in proof ‘of this [ may merely mention that the whois fleet is now safely docked in the western side

caught in ‘he :ce on the eastern sides, in a) late attempt to get to safer winter quarters.

There you will find the largest and best assortment of Cloths in the Asa Port of Refuge also, Souris Harbor is Toe best workmanship and a_ pertect fit too sm

all. and entirely inadequate to safely | accommodate all the vessels that seek shelter | ihere inthe storms so common during the lsummer and autumn months, without the lad titional space afforded by the western side. 'Then, again, this side of the harbor, by reason of natural causes in its favor, is open for navi- |gation from two to three weeks earlicr and ijater then the Eastern side—or, indeed, any jparton this Island, which circumstance has ‘hitherto yiven our sbipp-rs, both of Souris 'Eas* and West, and from other places as well

ia devided advantage over others in getting itheir produce earlier and later into market |than they could otherwise do—an advantage, Jet me say, of such vital importance to this i whole section of the County, that the people are not going so allow it to slip away from them without a most persistert acd deter

mined strugule. It was the deep feeling on (this question in the commun-ty, coupled with ithe failure of our representatives to tuifil, as ‘yet, their pre-election promises in relation i thereto, that originated those avful ** meet- ‘ings,’ referred (o by your correspondent, and about which he makes this terrible ado. Those public meetings were called by the peo lyle, irrespective of party, and in the jinterests of the people and the place in which ‘they live. and they were conducted with a ‘unanimity and good feeling altogether un- | heard of in those of a more political character, | as the reports of each will undoubtedly show

Party politics was studivasly av ided. Not one werd, atany of the four meetings, was |uttered derogatory or disrespectful to eitner jof our represen! atives. and yet resolutions

place on the impure ltar of an ignorayt, party-political prejudice, when there is really, a‘ter all, nothing injurious to him or his party at stake. Yours faithfully, A ' RoE ISLANDER, King’s County, Feb. 15. 18>2.

To the Editor of the Examiner.

Drar Str,—A short time ago Tread in your paper a card, thanking the Avent of the “‘Iuperial” Fire Insurance Company for the payment of aclaim, and I thenghe, when reading it, what a mean style of advertising. Last evening I noticed an- other elaborate card. got up this time by the Agent of the ‘‘Fire Insurance Associa- tion,” and signed by the same individual, as in the former case, but that was not all. D. J. Stewart Browne, who was imported elithe way from Englend to insect this claim, has even condercended to vive a cer- tificate, stating that the claim was satisfac- tory. Now, Mr. Editor, not this appear like imposing on good nature, to require a policy holder to sign bis name to an advertisement for an insurance agent, Many other comparies pay losses, too, burt

aoes

known as square dealers to require puffing. The card of thinks idea was, I believe, first introduced by M A Cameron, next taken up by F. T. Newbery, and now F W. Hyndman has adopted it. Whether the idea is good or bad, Mr. Cameron must be

Te the Editor of the Examiner.

Sirn,—I see a communication on the bread question in your issve of the 20th inst. signed ‘** Crust.” The writer dors not specify the quality of the crust. whether the upper or the lower. The under crust is generally soft, and jodying from the tone of his letter, he is of the under crust end therefore soft. Measuring his neigh- bor by his own half bushel, he concludes the public are soft enongh to accept his statement as to baker’s profits. There are many curiosities in his letter that | might notice were it not for taking up teo much of your valuable space ; suftice to say that

the writer did not finish his sum. I exnect, fearing least he should cap the climax of absurdities. Say that his figures in regard to the number

of loaves produced from a banel of floar are correct. That number is 126, sold onan average, as he seve, of seven cents per loaf, amounting to $882. First he says the barre! of flour (and poor at that) costs $7.25, leaving a balance of $1.57; wages again 75 cents; thea fuel and ineiden- ta! expenses, say 75 cents—net pre: fit to the baker, 7 cents. The public will, no deubt, conclude that ‘‘Crust” will have to try again, or at least get himse!f out of the dilemma in which he has placed himself, What will this “Soft Crust” say if the bakers can produce 196 loaves from the

i barre! of flour, that is, with a slight »ddi-

tien of potatoes, shorts, and probably a mixture of soap (this L say, for some of their bread tastes more like soap tham any- thing else). Yours, &c., J. MceM. Ch’town, Feb. 22, 1882.
