Mr. Ropert Brows died at Yarmouth on Wednesday last, aged Si. The Jimes of that town says :— ‘‘ When the first Division of the Sons of temperancs was started in Yarmouth (the first in the British provinces) Mr. Brown, who had been one of the organizers of the old Yarmouth Temperance Society, joined the order and remained in it up to the time of his death. Some weeks ago we had a very pleas- ant interview with the old gentleman, he being then the oldest son of femperance living in British America, and his reminiscences of the early days of the temperance agitation were read with great interest.”

A Fact which even political economists are apt to forget, is that a manufacturer's rate of profit is not the only essential element to suc- cess ; the aggrogate profit at theend of the year is of far greater importance, and this, in most cases, is greater out of a low rate of profit, than out of a high rate, because of the increased business, which the lower price gives rise to. It was on this principle that Messrs Tuckett & Son acted in introducing their now famous ‘‘Myrtle Navy” tobacco, and to this priociple they have ever since adhered. Thisis one of the reasons why the people of Canada are smoking the best to- bacen which can be produced, at a cheaper price than other people can buy «@ similar article,

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

Dear Sir,—I notice by Toe ExaMINER

parties to have a part of the ‘ Victoria Park” used as adrivewry. What does this mean? Is it possible that the City Council or Park Committee will dare to give any person the privilege of using the Park as a triining grouad for their “‘flyers,”” and most likely aa a race course when their horses are sufticiently trained ? Victoria Park is the only place near the city where ladies and children can enjoy the sea-breeze during summer. But, if the Park is allowed to be used as a training ground to increase the speed and enhane the value of certain fast horses owned in the city, it will not ba safe for them to walk in the Park at a'l. Such an outrage would not be tolerated in any city outside of Charlottetown. Yours respectfully, Crrizen.

Ch’town, May 11, 1886.

———

A MOTHER SPEAKS OUT.

Sir,—I hops the citisens will not allow our Park to ba turned into a race course as some foolish person in yesterday’s Exam- INER proposes. The Park wa; intended as aquict, healthy resort for oursslves and our children and not a place of attraction for the rabble. Bosides the danger of our children being run over by fast driving! I hope our city authorities won’t allow it.

A Morusr.

May 11, 1885.

SOME LIGHT,

A gentleman in the city writes to the Editor of Toe Examiner :—

lt is a shame to think that our City Council have not manliness enough to re fuse to turn the Victoria Park into a trace course with all of the attendant evils. Last summer some parties made it a practice of driving their horses, in sulkys, around the Park as fast as it was possible for them to go, and anyone who was driving for pleasure had to watch carefully to keep clear of the “flyers.” This should not be allowed, much less to give anyone the privilege of driving on any part of the Park as they please. As far as I can learn a number of our horse buyers and jockyes decided to get a part of the Park to use for the purpose of training and increasing the speed of the horses that they speculate in, which, of course, will add to the value of their horses, but would not only he very dan- gerous to the lives of all who might go out to the Park to walk or drive for pleagure, but would bring together crowds of roughs, who have nothing else to do, in the Park, which would add to the danger of any res- pectable persons who might wish to visit there. Isuppose the excuse will be made by the Council thata petition was sent in by a number of citizens to have the drive- way. Even so, you know very well that there are a number of persons who will sign any petition without understanding what they are signing about. I hope you will put your foot down on the driveway ‘che ne, and use your influence to prevent it. I was pleased to see your remarks in last night’s ExamMINeER.

isee there is some new move about the city undertaking the Waterworks them- selves. I hope you will watch the Council
