Provincial Rifle Association.
REPORT OF THE CGUNCTIL. The Council have the honer to submit the eleventh annual report of the proceed-
ings of the Provincial Rifle Association.
1. The Council tender their acknowledg- ments to 1S General, for the handsome for competition at our annual przefmecting.
To the Dominion and Provincial Gover a- ments for their continued ; rants to tae Association.
To His Honor the Lieut.-Governor for his usual donation of $20 to the general prize fund.
To the Brigade Major of the District, to the Ch’town branch of the Bank of Nova, Scotia, to the Patriot Publishing Company, to Dr. Jenkins, M. P., E. J. Hodgson, Q. C.. F. Mitchell, Es. , and, Lieut. E. A. Smith, 7lst Battalion N. B. Militia for, their several contributions, also to the prize fund.
We also tender our sincere thanks to our, regular subscribers for their cheerful sup port and encouragement at all ti.ues; to the Superintendent of the P. E. Island Rail-_ way,and to the Steam Navigation Company for the facilities afforded to competitors and for transport at reduced rates.
In accordance with the resolution pass- ed i at a meeting of Council, held in the City | Court Room on the 2ist July, the annual prize meeting, 1885, commenced on Wednesday the 12th, and coneluded on Saturday, the 15th August, at noon.
The number of competitors present dur- ing the meeting showed a considerable in- crease over the attendance of 1884.
The Governar-General’s Medals were won in the same order as last year, and by the same two members of the Active Militia, viz., Sapper Davison, of the Engi- neers, and Corporal Gillis, No. 5 Batt. Garrison Artillery.
The Silver Medal of the Dominion Asso- ciation also fell to the lot of Sapper Davi- son as first grand aggregate prize ; and the second aggregate, Lieut. Smith’s prize, to Corporal Gillis.
The team representing the Association at the Ottawa meeting in September ‘eft Charlottetown in two detachments on differ- ent days, and under separate Captains. There was a lot of time lost, and consicer- able expense incurred for telegrams, trying te obtain railway passes or transport requi- sition from headquarters, but to no effect, and the first detachment left here intend. ing to pay for its own transpes*.
in this connection the Counci! thinis that it is greatly to be regretted thet our best men, as a rule, do not attend the annual | prize meeting at Ottawa, and are strongly ’ of opinion that some other means ought to be adopted to secure a better representation of this Association at headquarters than is sometimes available under the present mode of selection.
4. The Treasurer’s statement of accounts is herewith submitted. It shows receipts from all sources amounting to $990.40, and expenditure $994.24, leaving a balance of $3.84 against the Association.
The receipts from special donations and annual subscriptions for the past year amounted, together with entry fees, to $223.20, as against $186 for 1884, an in- crease of $37.20.
5. The following list gives the number ‘of competitors in the several matches :--
1, All-Comers Match.........85 competitors. 2: Nursery Match....,<2..s+: 37 3

Tne different Batteries and Con panies throughout the District (with the exception of Nos. 7 and 8 of the 82nd Battalion) were well represented on Kensington Range. The weather on the whole was fine, and everything was carried out in a satisfactory manner.
The Range at Kensington requires av. outlay of more than the usual amount this year, as it is absolutely necessary to have some place to keep and repair targets in, and which would facilitate rifle practice, do away With a iot of trucking to and from the city, and the targets could always be kept in good order.

Pp. E. Island Elections.
OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.
(Montreal Gazette. )
The result of the election in Prince Ed- ward Island yesterday was a decided suc- cess for vive Governmen*, the allies of the | Conservative party in Dominion politics, | After being im power for seven years, as- ‘sailed during the whole time by an active ar ‘1 comparatively large opposition, ‘hey have, on appeal to the ¢ countiy, been sus- tained, and in the new Assembly will have la majority of at least six, and probably ten, that is to say, two to one in a house of ‘thirty members. Their record was a good one; like the Conservative administration in this Province they succeeded to powcr after a period of Liberal ule had brought about a large deficit; this they have greatly | reduced, and have, besides, cared for the interests of the Province in a toanner that has commended itself to the electors. An attempt was made by the Liberals to intro- ‘duce Dominion issues inte the contest, and Mr. Fielding, the pro yrictor of the secess- iva white elephant in Mere Scotia, visited
the Island to seek new converts to his policy of disintegration. He and those
with whom he sought to ally himself have
met defeat, complete and unmistakable, the
precursor of the collapse that awaits their
friends in Quebec. Secession, it is evident,
has no friends in the Garden Province. (Pictou News— Repeal.)
The election appears to have been run entirely on local issues, end the question of repeal was not before the people at all. Had it been, we have little doubt that the Liberals would have been placed: in power by a sweeping majority. in steermg viear of the repeal agitation, in failing to second the motion of the Nova Scotia Liberals, the leaders of the opposition lacked judgment, and this is proven by the result. There can be little doubt too that Dominion money was used to a large extent to im- fluence the electorate. Such a blow was dealt at the Ottawa Government by the Repeal victory of the 5th ult., that the saving of P. EK. Island became a vital point, and every nerve was strained to keep it in the bonds of Toryism. Although cur ‘enemies stili hold the reins of power, they have suffered to some extent a defeat, aud their outlook for the ensulng Dominion election is anything but hopeful. Let them not forget, that the last time the Island re- turned 4 Liberals to 2 Tovies almost at the same time as the last local election.
The chief matter of regret for the Nova Scotia party, is that, in those negotiations which must take place to arrange for com- mon action regarding repeal. Fielding and his colleagues will “have to dval in P. E. I. with opposition instead of the Govern- ment, for patriotic conduct need not be ex- pected fron, supporters of Canadian Tory- ism. This’ however will only serve to retard for a brief time, the progress of the repeal ia.7C.20rt Tae necessity of repeal to these three Seaside Provinces is so self evident a fact, that the people, ere long, will take the matter in hand and dictate to theirGovernment the course they sball pursue
(St. John Sun.)
Returns from Prince Edward Island in- dicate that the new legislature will be Liberal-Conservative by two-thirds major- ity. The contest was conducted, so far as the Opposition could make it possible, on straight party lines. L. H. Davies, M. P., Hon. David Laird, Mr. Yeo and other Grit statesmen asked the electors to express their disapproval of the Dominion Govern- ment by turning out the local administra- tion. ‘The electors did not do this, but they turned out a few of the Opposition members and left the Government majority larger than befure. Mr. Davies made some speeches in which he claimed that among the issues before the country was Recipro- city. ‘* Vote for Peters, Morris and Reci- procity,’ wes the mest prominent appeal in the Patriot newspaper, a journal of which ex-Governor Laird is the editor. But either the electors were opposed to Reciprocity, or they held that Reciprocity could not be secured by the mere act of electing Grit legislators, or perhaps they held that while Reciprocity was good, the election ot Mr. Davies’ candidate was too high a price to pay for it. Charlottetown is said to have given the Liberal-Conserva- tive candidates a majority of 150. At the last local election one of them had a ma jority of 60, while the other had only one vote between him and his ieading opponent.
The Prince Edward Island government jdeserved io succeed. It is an energetic, ‘honest and economical administratio.. The people are wise in keeping «a government
like that when they have it. The Liberal Conservative cause is greatly strengthened ‘by tho circumsta~ce that Mr. Davies and
his friends make their fight not only against good government at Ottawa but against good government at Charlottetown. How far the federa! issue led to the victory of the local government we have no way of of knowing, but the Grit press of the upper provinces as well as tnat of Nova Scotia nad New Brunswick, have declared that the defeat of the Sullivan government would be defeat for Sir John Macdonald, It would perhaps be better to wait for the Dominion election to settle thaf, pomt. We cant, Lowever, congratulate Mr. Fielding on the success Of ius CO harlottetown expedition. Perhaps the Liberal organization of New Brunswick, which refused to congratulate Mr. Fielding on his Nova Scotia vietory, will feel better satisfied with his* more re- f the Prince public has,
mms
cent campaign. Tie defeat Edware islaud* commissioner of works is unfortunate. Mr. Camp we believe, been an excellent official.
