A DEFIANCE OF PUBLIC SENTIMENT.

The people of Prince Edward Is-

land hold the proud position of stand- ing as a c.\mmunity in the front _rank of the temperance movement.. ThiS is the banner province of prohibition. In successive plebiscites they have affirmed, by majorities more over- whelming than in any other section of the Dominion their desire for the total suppression of the manufacture, importation and sale of alcoholic beverages. For some years the entire province was under the operation of the Scott Act and at this time in all of the Island, excepting only the city the Scott Act is in force. Our people are well aware of the defects_ of the present act; it is an imperfect imple- ment, but because it is the best they have or can get at present they will make the best of it.

Kings county is and has long been

under the Scott Act, it having been

,brought into operation there in 1879,

twenty years ago, by a vote of 1.076 for and 59 against. The great ma- jority of the people there are and have been in favor of the total ,sup- pression of the liquor traliic. A. con- stant warfare has been maintained against the violators of the law in Kings and scores of convictions have been made and penalties imposed. There can therefore be no question as to the state of public sentiment in the country. We therefore claim that

the Scrimgeour warehouse and the,

selection of a Scott Act violator as agent for the distribution of the lish-

,leries bounty is an o en defiance of

the public' sentiment of Kings county, and of Prince Edward Island. `

We have proceeded on the assump-

tion that the government has been led somewhat unwillingly into this mistake. unaware of its gravity. But no excuse can be made for the contin- uance of the warehouse, or the con- tinuance of Scrimgeour as a bounty officer. Let the scandal be wiped away, or the government i must take the full responsibility for a condition of things that brings the blush of shame to the cheeks of the better class of their supporters. '

The Toronto Telegram tells how on

one recent memorable occasion party lines were wholly obliterated in the Ontario legislature. “Hon. A. S. Hardy left to the members to say whether they would draw full indem- nity of $600 or draw $600 for this session less the $250 that was paid them for the special session last sum- mer. Party lines were obliterated. Then, and not till then, the Ontario legislature rose up in its united might, put aside party feeling and began to feel for the full indemnity of $600 without deductions for the $250 paid on account last summer.”

Kindey Bladder Trouble.

There is no more serious menace to

good health in the present age than kidney disorders, and it’s an appealing fact, but a true one. that four Iifths of the country’s people have the taint of this insidious disease -with them. Dr. Chase’s Kidney .Liver Pills cure all

ber of patients is approximately two and a half times as many as we have at Falconwood. There are two prin- cipal buildings,the asylum proper and the annex, half a mile apart, the annex being in connection with the farm, and its inmates of the class whose labour can be utilisei in out- door work on the farm. The estima- ted value of the farm products is $10,- 000 yearly, and exclusive of this the cost of maintenanceof the institution is $56,813. A higher death-rste than usual, and a decreased number of ad- missions has reduced the number of patients at the end of 1898 to 487. At the end of 1895 there were 506, the figures showing a decrease of 19 in three years.

These facts and figures may pos-

sibly assist those who are sincerely desirous of improving the conditions in our own overcrowded lunatic hospi- tal where the need of more room. healthful occupation for opatients, and a. resident medical otlicer are so strongly felt.

Kong authorities say that in return they will build. a custom house and collect the revenues for the Chinese, guaranteeing an annual increase of ,$200,000 in the opium revenue. They threaten if the extension is refused to remove the existing Chinese customs depots from British territory.

Areport comes from St. Petersburg

that the Tsung Li Yamen or -Chinese' Foreign Office is about to issue acircular to the Chinese Envoys stating its determ- ination net to lease another inch of territory to any foreign power.

The King ot Siam has issued a decree

to the effect that no children who are entirely naked will be henceforth allow- ed to play in the streets ol Bangkok, and that every person over the age of ten must be clothed from 'knee to the neck. It is also made a rule that all » persons entering the,palacc must wear socks. Nomcompliance with this order is to be punished by fine. The decree insists especially on girls and women wearingj-ckets, but as this is not the mode there it is anticipated that there will ne considerable trouble with the -fair ones. A policeman is considered competent to decide when a person i. in sufficiently clad, or when a child is over ten years of age. and his judgment on these points is to be final.

A serious collisionhas taken place be-

tween Bulgarian and Turkish frontier guards at Kczy-Agob, b»tween Cam- pcli. on the eastern Roumelia and Arl- rianople, on the banks of the Toonja, 56 miles south of Campoli. According ll to a despatch from Sotia, capital of Bulgaria, the Turks attacked ,a weak Bulgariamoutpost, but the Bulgarians, laidedby armed inhabitants, repulsed their assailauts.atter a four hours’ fight. . Both sides suffered losses of killed and wounded. The Turks, the despatch says, were seeking to secure a position
