Meteier’s Explanation.
Mercier says that the notes endorsed by him,and paid with the public money in the hands of Pacaud, were ‘* used to makejthe necessary deposits in Dominion election protests and petitions and for other neces- sary disbursements following the general elections of March 5.”’
Mr. Mercier seems to think it the correct thing to take public money to pay aotes made for this purpose! Highly moral Guit Leader that he is. He thinks it folly use his own money to promote his own election schemes at a time when he has charge of the Provincial Exchequer. Even when there was nothing in the treasury an the money for his personal aud party pur poses has to be raised by means ot letters of credit, he hesitated not to enable Pacaud to obtain the means to return the notes en- dorsed by him.
Admitting that Mr. Mercier’s frank ex- planation is true, that the money was used
for the party purposes of the Opposition in |
the Dominion Parliament, what is the position of the Leader of the Opp witlon, Mr. Laurier? He either knew that public money was being stolen to promote the schemes and tricks of the Opposition, or he did not know. If he knew, he is 4 knave ; ifhe did not know he permitted Mr. Mercier to interfere with his business, and he is not fit to be Leader of the Opposition. And this is the man for whom it iscontend- ed that Mr. Abbott and Sir Juhu Thomp- son should give place !
a
The Great Pacaud.
A telegram from Murray Bay, (Que.,) reports :—
** A sensation was caused in the village by
the arrivalon Saturday night of an unkaown |
steamer belonging to no regular line. It turned out tobe the Rhoda, with the famous Mr. Pacaud on board. Tine nabob, who had chartered the steamer at a cost of $150, was in such a hurry to land that he wanted the steamer Saguenay to make way for his boat at the wharf, directions in order to convey him through the village to his destination.”
The people’s inoney is a great thing to conjure with.
‘Rastus Speaks.
Ina letter to one of the papers, Erastus Wiman says :—
“T notice in some of the Canadian news- papers that in a speech at the tunnel celebra- tion at Sarnia, the statement is attributed to me that the fate of Canadas desended upon the result of the present state ele:tions in Ohio. Permit me to say that the remark was made strictly im reference to the negotiations in relation to reciprocity, which impend in October and not as to the fate of the country at large.”
In respect to this remark, Mr. Wiman is indubitably right.
Notes and Comments.
— We agree with the Toronto Globe that all honest men, whether Tories or Liberals, should take their;stand in these days upon the stout old platform of ** Thou shalt not steal,” and punish boodlers in whichever party they are found.
—The American Banker says of the United States :
“This country is bound to become the financial stronghold of the world. Any other country would have been well-nigh ruined by the loss of so much gold as we sent to Europe the past nine months. We parted with it with- out the slightest disturbance of our financial structure, and could probably have parted with much more. Our broad fields of grain and cotton and cur immense stores of miner- als make us the favored nation of the earth, leaving little need for concern for our future.”
Provincial Exhibition Notes.
We are glad to learn that the Philhar- monic Society will give one of their grand concerts at the Provincial Exhibition. This is a treat that our people only hear but rarely—too rarely, we think, as upoa such societies the musical education of the peo- ple largely depends. The full strength of the Society will this year be on the plat- form, and with the valuable assistance of the orchestra under the leadership of Mr. Vinnicombe, we may expect a grand ren- dering of someof the best music. The choruses selected for this year are among the strongest of the repertvire, and we are satisfied that the audience will be the lar- gest ever assembled to greet our first musi- cal talent, generously given in aid of a provincial instituiion.
Personal.
Mr. 1. T. Winaw arrives home to-morrow evening, after an almost unbroken success, Yesterday he drove the winner in the three-year-old race. Mr. Winan would, no doubt, like to meet the author of the false reports about him as soon as possible. Will that individual please make a note of this.
Senator Prowse and wife, of Murray Harbor, are at the Hotel Davies on their way home from Ottawa.

THE RACES.
Great interest centred in the races on the driving park, The grand stand was packed and the track was lined with spec- tators for nearly half its length. The Boys’ Band occupied seatson the stand and fur- nished several choice selections between the heats, which were much enjoyed.
The judges were J. J. Davies (starter); James McDonald, V. S., Summerside; D. F. McDonald, New Perth. Timers—G. W. Hibbett and R. W. Sprague. Distance Judge—John McCabe.
The crowd was very orderly, and with the exception of a slight collision between the sulkies of L. P. Doyle, the driver of Barney D., and that of Mr. McGuigan, driver of Pilotta, there was not a mishap during the day within the driving park, or anyappearance of over-indulgence in stimulants.
It was expected that Harry C, of this city, would be one of the competitors in the 2.45 class, bu: as he was objected to on ac- count of having made arecord of 2435 at the Souris races, he was very generously withdrawn by Mr. Connolly to remove ,dis- satisfaction.
The following are the summaries :

NOTES.
The thanks of Tue Examiner are due the telephone officials for courtesies extended vesterday. The young lady in charge at Georgetown—Miss Hobbs—very kiadly re* mained in the offiee a'l the afternoon for- warding the prizes list for publication in our weekly edition, which went to press early
last evening. Miss Gillis received the news |
at Charlottetown,
The railway officials also gave satisfac- tion, as u-u.l. The especial left for the city at five o'clock, bnt the regular was held at Georgetown until six, in order that visitors nught see the conclusion of the races.
Mr. Owen and his staff of assistants did all in their power to facilitate the work of the representatives of the press. Two of the assistants —~- Messrs, Flannigan and! Lavers—were especially attentive to Tue | EXAMINER'S reporter.
The show throughout -was highly eredit- able to King’s County. The different classes were well filled, an] the arrange- ment of the exhibits was very tasteful, But when shall we reach that hapoy era when all the articles on exhibition at our County and Provincial shows will be su marked that the visitor and the reporter can tell at a glance to whom they belong?
The attendance during the afternoon par- ticularly was large. At timesit was difti- cult to move about the Drill Shed, so great | was the crush. The order throughout the day was excellent,
There were many exhibits both inside and outside the Drill Shed, to which we would like to refer to-day, but neither time nor space will admit. We must there- fore take it for granted that the decisions of the judges in the different classes were correct, and refer the general reader to the prize list for =the most _ successful ex- hibitors.
A few errors which crept into the prize list as published in our weekly edition are corrected in to-day’s issue. .
