In answer to a question nu to what was best 2o be done the reply ei the meeting wni to put a special on the Cape Tormen- tiiie branch.

Horace Hnszard said the people oi the island must have the best possible mail service and hs wanted Mr. Armstrong to impress that opinion on thn Department While the people here were endeuvoriug to arrange the mail service some others had telegraphed to have the mails sent again by the winter bolus, thus upsetting all the work done.

Gecr e E Hughes enquired ii anyone on the and had the right to trnniiier the mails and Mr. Armsirong repliei that the Postmaster had. Mr. Hughes in< stunned a case when a iaw years aizo Mr. Breeken had to telegraph ior author- ity to Ottawa.

lllr. (lunpheii explained that this was because Mr. Bracken could not put on n special train, not hecauie he could not trnnsier the mails.

Mr. Hughes said ihere was no question- oi special trains. Knowing now who has authority in the matter we had better let the new Postmaster know that he has power. He pointed our. the 36 hours de- lay we have because oi the absence ci a specialist Cape Tormentlne. l-Ie was as- hamed oi the tre itment that the Liberal party had iriven in this matter and it was a great drawback as Mr. Haezard had ex- perienced in his campaign at last election.

Donald Nicholson thoughi it would be beet to keep the mails on the Capes route until there was no diiilculty at the Georgetown route. 'l‘his was the wish oi the people and they wanted a special at Sackvillc also.

W. F. Tidmarsh‘ advocated the iCapns service for the present and said lt should be deﬁnitely understood that the specials go on each year whenever the mails are hhsngsd. 'lhe power oi changing must he left alone with the Postmaster ci Charioitemwn.

D. A. McKlonon, M. P., said he with others had when urgently for a special at Sackville some time ago and would like an explanation why it was not P“? l?"-
