Harp on tHe ‘“‘ Giosr.”--The Rey. J. Bray, in his Montreal Spectator, says :— ** Now I have had some experience in the matter of newspaper work and courtesy, and haye to say that of all the bigotry and vulgarity I have ever met, nothing is equal to that of which the Globe is capable. No fairly educated man would conduct himself as some writersin the Globe do. On the ground of ignorance [ excuse the editor of that paper and his staff.”

Tue Halifax Reporter says: ‘* We under- stand that M. J. Griffin, Esq., Editor of the Morning Herald, has been appointed Private Secretary to the Minister of Jus- tice.

They did their best to keep the audience in roars of laughter. The jokes were old and the singing fair, with plenty room for improvement. The Ethiopian characters of Mr. Ronaine were excellant, and would do credit to a professional. The Irish charac- ters of Messrs. Brennan and Ronaine were also good.

AN inquest on the body of McAuley (Grane Chaplain of the Orange Associa- tion), which was found in a river near Ot- tawa, a short time ago, is now going on at Ottawa. Theresa Remon and her husband swore that Mrs. n, a prostitute, con- fessed to them that McAuley was shot by a man in her company on the street in a uarrel as to which of them should go with oe: After shooting, the man, whose name did not give, robbed McAuley’s pockets

his watch and reyolver. Then he and Mes. Coghlan threw the body into the tim- r slides. Mrs. Coghlan was examined yesterday and denied al) knowledge of the affair.

l'o the Editor of the Examiner.

Sir,—To-day’s issue of the Summerside Progress, in its leading editorial, headed “A Change of Tone,” brings to task our Railroad Superintendent for having in the past mani- fested a narrow, partizan spirit towards news- papers opposed to the McKenzie Government, by excluding from their columns the Time lable advertisements, which the Superintend. ent now generously asks those Conservative organs to publish. The following extract from the article in question speaks no uncertain sound ;—

‘*Now, if it was right that the Time Table should be withheld from the Herald, Presby- terian or Progressin May, it should also be held from these papers in November. We fail to see that the advertisement published now is of any more importance than that published last spring. What change, then, has come

over the Superintendent that he now thinks fit, in his philanthropy, to ex- tend the patronage of the Railway

Department to some Conservative newspapers?

Has he become awakened to the merits of the Progress, Herald and Presbyterian as ad- vertising mediums? A wholesome dread of the ‘‘dirty kick-out” has brought him to his senses. The man who cannot eschew his , political animus even while he attends church cannot be otherwise than biind to all sense of propriety. The Conservative party cannot afford to retain Mr. McKechnie at the head of our Railway Department. If they did so they would incur the displeasure of the whole of their friends in this Province, The man who did all in his power, fairly and unfairly, who used the patronage of the railway in a most unscrupulous manner to defeat the Conserva- tive candidates in this Province, deserves to be punished.”

Tam ready to admit that officials holding responsible positions and who observe strict neutrality in the discharge of their duties should not be removed on every change of government. But such officials are few and far between in this Province at all events. Any unbiased observer who witnessed the violent partizan spirit manifested by C. J. Brydges and W, McKechnie on the occasion of their Premier’s defeat at the celebrated drill shed meeting at Charlottetown cannot but con- fess that the retention in office of these officials under those whom they opposed to the bitter end would be a suicidal act on the part of the new Administration. Both Mr. Brydges and Mr. McKechnie should therefore be taught a lesson not easily forgotten.
