` " -F l|\TI-IECHARLOTTETOWN GUARDIAN

'~ TUESDAY, DECEMBER 13, i9io~ ,

There is now something likes cer tainty that neither the Ministerial party nor the Opposition party will make any very decided gains in the present contest. With over 500 of the G70 seats accounted for at the

polls the respective numbers of each party is almost precisely what it was on the same ground before. This goes to show that the popular feel- ing against the Lords has not abat- ed during the stirring period since the electorate was appealed to ten months ago.

'l`lie fact is that the House of Lords

has developed into an extremely DM' tisan body. Before the Liberal IIBFW carrie into power less than hve years ago there had been a lfins Um” With the Unionists in power, That Gov- ernment had no ditliculty in passinf., any ol its ineasiires throui.,h the Up per I-louse.

So sweeping were these rejections

that it sliowf-il nn apparent deteririin- ation that only Um* l’m`tY “'°'lm be allo\vr‘d't_o legislate in the United Kingdom if the Lords were permit- ted to have their \vuY- Sil~l»lUl1 S0- cure in their seats, far above the peo- ple and out of sympatliy with the people, they determined to play the lparty game with loaded dice and set the will of the people at defiance. lf there is now si strong feeling against them. in some cases pr0C00di!1i-I 110 great extrciiies and ilesiriiig to 'sweep away the House of Lords altogether, it may fairly be claimed that the Lords have brought this upon thcin- selves.

The vote now being taken is not,

for obvious reasons, a- lair test of

public opinion Hundreds upon hun- dreds ot Lords and landlords holding estates, country seats or shooting boxes in ten to twenty or more dif- ferent constituencies each, are each rushing from poll to poll and re- cording as many votes. Thus one ar- istocratic landlord has perhaps twen- ty times the voting power of the or- dinary citizen, besides exercising an almost absolute control over the votes of his tenantry. That is why the Liberal hill providing that one

man should have but one yote was rclected by the Lords. That sort of thing must now come to an end.

The bill against plural voting will

some day before long become law,- aiid then the elections will telladii- ferent story The Lords are beaten, despite their lar ge professions of wil- lingness to reform their own House. It vias a sort of deathhed repent- alice on their part not heard of or eien hinted at in the days when ri Conservative niaiority ruled in both Houses And what will happen nmv when the Governiuent is sustained? i_I’robahly another .conference of the leaders, with a willingness on the part of the Unionists to make larger concessions than they offered at the conference which preceded the elec- tions.

Failing to reach an agreement in

conference we may expect the Gov- ernrncnt to ask for the creation of

enough Liberal Peers to assure the passage of its measures. It is difli- cult to see how the King could refuse to do this. Brit it will hardly bc necessary for him to refuse or to act upon this advice. Driven to the last ditch, the Lords may be expect- ed to abate their pretensions and surrender to the will of the majori- ty. But there will be days and weeks of tense struggle before .the end is reached. There can, however, be brit one ultimate end to the irrepressible conilict now going on. The will of

the people niust prevail. ` MHA”

FROM Cfjivhllli DEE

"Last year live geese to a consid-

erable amouut were shipped from Prince Edward island to the United States, and a niirnliei- of American hiiycrs are here this fall who are pur- chasing for the lloston and New York markets.

“The fattening is done in the Uni-

ted States. lt is claimed that the geese from this island fatten well and yield richly in rendered grease, ;u.-:ed in many households in the place of lard. The average live weight is 8; pounds and the freight is 10 ‘cents each. The prices paid to farmers in 1908 were from ($0 to 65 cents per goose; in 1909, 80 to 85 cents; and' this season 10 pci' cent more than last year. Shipments of dressed geese, which will amount this your to about 35,000, have coinnienccri. Most of these go to thc other Mari- Linie Provinces and to .Newiouiid- land, the reinaindrfr to Boston and New York. The prevailing 1\;"i'es of dressed geese are from 12 to 13 cents

Tlie sudden demise of Rev. Frank

O`Neill of Baltimore has been learn- ed with deep regret by many friends _in this, his native Province. Heiwas *horn at Vernon River, anrl was ii ison of the well known proprietor of lthc Halfway House. He was educat- iycil at St. liunstan's College and the isfillliunry of Ilaltiinore, being ordiiii- ‘¢`i'l ‘£0 ill!! IJl'ii=.stlirioil at the latter lplace. I-ie always retained a strong love for the land of his birth and during his visits here occasionally Itook the services at St. Dunstim's

pilathedral, and in his home cliur-ch at KV(-rnnn liiver. There is general re.

pgi-et that one of so much ability,l

Inst-fiilncss and promise should have hleeii so early 1'ernovcd from lifes ac- tivitics.

'I`hi=. attention of our representa-

` \

ness coinmriiiity is again directed to tlie fact that on the iniiinlanil the

'system of night letters by wire has

come in, while we in Prince Edward Island are excluded from the privi- lege. The night letter' gives the pri-

vilege oi' sending 50 words by night to be delivered to the party Hd- ldrcsscd on the following inorning,at

the same rate as is charged for ten words in a. day incssagc. We ought

to hi-ive this privilege here. AS if

is #row we get no benefit from this

“night letter” rate. A St. J0l1H OF Halifax inercliaiit sends a night let- ter of fifty irorils by wire, any to Sydney, for 25 r-ents. A (‘hiirlotte-

town nierclianl. is clinrged 30 CCM! for ten words -by ilny or night. No

time should he lost in securing l0\'
