_ It appears that Summerside has been having too much McKenzie King dished up t0 it lately and when, at a recent meeting of‘ the Board of Trade, he was again served for an evening meal, the civic stomach rebelled. Certain enthusiastic had poured all their grievances, hopes for railway and other reforms‘ into the sym- pathetic ear of Mr. King, to the exclusion of all the other Island representatives and Mr. King replied sympathetically and voluininously. This correspon- dence came before the Board of Trade repeatedly and on Thursday evening last, once too often.

was pointed out by some of the cool headed members of the Board that if the province was to have its wants attended to at Ottawa the influence of all the Island representativesand senators should be solicit- ,ed, rather than depend wholly upon Mr. King who “had the honour or representing Prince County in

their wants and their

opposition. ‘The discussion which followed was a}

stormy one and indicated very clearly that there was _ more politics than desire for railway or other im- provement in the correspondence between Mr. King _ and his Summerside supporters. The storm doubt- less will have a salutary effect and it is hoped that henceforth even the suspicion of politics will be bar- red fromthe Board of Trade.

The Charlottetown Driving Club is to be highly commended on their efforts to spread abroad the fame of P. E. Island horses. The race meets already held and those yet to be held while ice conditions permit, are not only of interest to local horse- men but they advertise abroad the fact that we not only have speed but have lots of it. These meets are all largely attended by visitors as well as local horse- men, and the interest is not confined merely to the race horses. Everybody w‘ho owns a good looking horse, and there are lots of these, takes a justifiable pride in “showing him off’ at a race meet and, if he has some speed, in incidentally trying conclusions with the professionals.

By n‘ similar method, it was proved that there is no such thing as sensliiveness to being stared at. In one czisc, for instance, twclvc experimenters all l(i‘,Z8lll9l‘ agrccd to think hard oi‘ the image of u black cat. But none of the other individuals over thought of a black cat. Dr. Coovcr, zililiough ttnder ev- ery inccniivo to find some truth in spiritunlistic phenomena, observes that ‘N0 truce oi‘ an objective ilioogiu-trtinsference is found as u capacity enjoyed in perceptible measure by any of the individual normal reagents.‘

lt- would appear, therefore, that not only is spiritualism opposed to every a priori probability"; but that evidence of very definite chm-- acter exists against it. We are thus thrown buck upon the kind oi‘ evidence offered in Sir Oliver Lodges ‘Raymond.’ The circum- stances described in this book are in every instance capable of ex- planation by coincidence, illusion, trickery, or hysteria;- and we are not. offered any reasons showing ’\Vll_\' ilicre ulici-naliirc hypotheses should be excluded.

It would almost seem that Sir Conan has been so curried away by the creation of his own imagin- {HIOILHS to suppose that this kind oi‘ reasoning is a safe guide in real liic.

Spiriiuniism has been ilcfonded oiflhe ground that it gives consol- uiion to those who have losi near relatives or friends. Bu! it is dif- ficult seriously to argue that a great stipcrstition should be left untouched, merely because the li'lllll is unpleasant io n few indi- viduals.

It is perhaps not yet. certain ilint the ltnowlciltgc oi‘ truiii is necessarily flood lqr liu- inanity. Yet there can be no do- nying that, in the past, humanity bus abundantly profited by the in- crease of real knowledge. And in any case truth itself‘ is u Ill_Lll inor- iil ideal, in no way inferior to the idcul oi‘ human comfort. If lii‘e is easier when lying on a soft bed of superstition, it is higher and more atlinirztble when based upon tiie llllfdél‘ rock of truth.

There is, however, a more defin- ite danger in connection with splr itualisilc tiocirinos: Several exports iii lunacy have l‘€‘C(‘l'l{l){-PX])l‘OSSCll the opinion that, with delicate per- sons (who are those most npt to bcattracted by spiritualism), some mental risk attends absorption in these studies. The first of these authorities whom we shall cite is Dr. Charles Mercier, who writear‘

‘I know from my own medical ex- perience, that the pursuit of the occult, and especially of that form‘ ot"it that used to go by the name ot‘ spiritualism, but is now culled telepathy. . . . leads i0 a morbid friime of mind, and tends to render those who are at all predisposed to insanity; an easy prey to the ilis- euse. . .' An experienced physician cannot shut his eyes to the [ierni- cious effects it (spiritualism) some- times produces.‘

Similarly Dr. G. M. Robertson,

Superintendent. oi‘ the Ro_val"r\syl- um of lllorningsldc, Edinbtirgh, writes: “l desire to warn those who may pos- sibly inherit a. latent tendency to ner- yous disorders to have nothing io do with practical inquiries ol‘ ii spirituitlistlc nature’. . . inquiries into spiritualism sometimes loud to insanity in the predisposed.‘

The form of insanity which is rc- lated to spiritualism is ilmi oi‘ which hallucinations are ilio ciiicl‘ characteristic; the deep signific- iincc of the fact is obvious.
