MMODATION FOR PUBLIC.

/ p> f° fi;

SOME wees We ealled attention to

the very defective arrangement for railway

communication between the sections of

this Island e-*+ «nd west of Summerside.

wi

tuan admirable letter — published in an- other column—the defects are clearly and foreibly setforth. Few, however, take the view our philosophic correspondent takes. Few admire ‘ the beautiful, quiet, peace- fal arrangement’ which forces a person travelling by rail to or from Alberton or Charlottetown to remain waiting in Sum- merside seven hours, and which makes it necessary that a person coming to or go- ing fromAlberton or Shediac should stayin Summerside nearly twenty-four hours. In faet the whole population is crying out arainst it; and if any respect whatever is paid by the railway authorities to the wishes of the people it will immediately be amended. The public should, we think, be accommodated with two daily trains to Alberton ; or else two sets of train offi- cials should be put cn, and the single train made to connect with the trains to and trom Charlottetown and the steamer to and from Shediac.

Che rates of freight for grain have, we understand, been lowered fifteen per cent. his change was expedient and necessary. Little or no grain would, till the last days if the shipping season, have been carried ou the railway had the rates been kept up; aud one of the greatest advantages of rail way communication would have been lost to our people. We cannot, in justice to Mr. MeKechnie, thank Mr. Laird for the change. Nor can we appreciate the Patriot's attempt to mislead the public into the belief that to Mr. Laird the ecre- dit isdue,and that the change involves an abatement of the whole tariff. Last Monday we declared that—

* As to lowering the freight and passenger tariff—as a whole-—-we do po believe it can be done till Mr. Laird ceases to represent us ai Ottawa.’

The following Thursday the Patriot |

|

contained this paragraph : ‘We are pleased to learn that the Rail- |

way rates for grain have been lowered | lifleen per cent. We trust that this experi- ment of lowering the tariff will have the elect anticipated by those “who advocate heaper railway carriage. The Examiner will ind that atthe time he was preferring

harges against the Minister of the Interior, “hich are d as they are false, the ‘hange which predicted would not be made as longas Mr. Laird remained in office, had already been elf _sligs

as Stu] he We made no prediction. We merely stuted our belief, und gave our reason for it. The change which the Patriot says we predicted would not be made, has not been made. We preferred no charge. The Minister of the Interior has, ia our opinion, just as good a right to think that “if any change ought to be made in the tariff Ir sHovrD BE RalSED'* as the Hon J.C. Pope has to believe that the public would be more generally accommodated and the railway more profitable to the Dominion Govern- ment, were the tariff lowered, If, how. ever, he thought as Mr, Pope thinks, and if he possessed the ability and influence a Cabinet Minister should possess, he might easily obtain an abatement of all the rates. He’ might prove to the Minister of Public Works that it is neither right nor expedi- ent to levy the same rates here as are levied on Government railways io the ether Provinces of the Dominion. He might represent that our railway was nei- ther built nor bought by the Dominion Government—that it was built by the Local Government at the “proper cost” of the people of Prince Edward Island ; and that, therefore,the Dominion Government is, in justice, bound to afford the people of the Island the largest amount of railway accommodation at the lowest prices consistent with the ptyment of working expenses. He might point out that ours is a cheap narrow gusge railway, the working expenses of which are, compared with those of the broader guage railways in the other Prov- inces, small. He might show that the population of this Island is,proportionate- ly to its size, double that of any other Province ; that the passenger traffic would he double as large if a low tariff were ad- opted; and that, theretore, to raise a pro- portionately large revenue, it is only nec essary to charge half the amount charged in the other provinces for fares. He might meet the objection that we have no very large amounts of freight to move long distances, by estimates showing that the local freight trafic would, if the tariff were lowered so that the people generally could afford to pay the rates, be ample to A powerful Minister,holding opinions similar to those of Mr. Pope, and using these and other ar- say, obtain an abate- ment «f the railway tariff—as a whole. But the misfortune is that Mr. Laird is nota powerful Minister, und he does not hold opinions similar to those of Mr.Pope. He thinks that if any change ought to be made in the railway tariff, “17 sHovuLp BE RAISED.” Therefore, we think it is not likely to be lowered while Mr. Laird remains our representative at Otttawa.

The patent “job” connected with last year’s experiment to prove the practicabi- lity or impracticability of maintaining steam communication between this Island and the mainland during winter, will ¢ use the public to be solicitous concern- ing the arrangements for the coming win- ter? Where is the winter steamer ? might she have been built contemporary with Noah’s Ark as the steamer of last year ? who is Mr. Sewell, the coutractor? is he a Government pet?—these are questions to be answered. We trust the Winter Boat will make her appearance ig good time, and that she will he fitted for the service

that Mr. MacEachen has his duty, or that he is incapable of pxr- forming it. The prudent course for Mr.

McEachen to have pursued under the

veglected

circumstances, was to have remained silent. r

Instead, he wrote a letter in which decency is outraged, and the dignity of his position is seriously compromised, Apart from the vile language of which the letter is made up, it reveals the secret proceedings of the House of Assembly while its doors were closed. it shows that the House (with the Speaker in the chair) spent a whole forenoon discussing the punishment of a person who had offended it by sitting on the rai's in front of the Speaker, and at last decided to punish—not the offender—but the public. Such proceedings the public will think more like those of men who had the pre- vious evening been indulging too freely in the “wine, brandy and whiskey” which (Mr. McKachern tells us) is kept in the Speaker's room, than those of men paid by the peop'e to makelaws. They furnish an additional argument for the reorgar- ization of the Legislature and the reduc. tion of the number of its members.

other by publishing it—would be instantly dismissed. No such condiza punishment —although the Executive meets to-mor- row —will, we suppose, be awarded Messrs. McEachern and Bowers. But they will at least learn that’ the days when gross vituperation and scurrility and the be- trayal of that which should be sacredly secret can be tolerated by the public, are over forever.

“THE NONPAREIL.” |

The *“*Nonpareil Steam Carriage Factory and Agricultural Works,’’ at New Glasgow, is worthy more than a passing notice. Situated in the midst of one of our most flourishing communities, it is well patron- ized by the well-to-do farmers of the Island ; and not by them only, but by per- sons in Nova Scotia and Quebec. it is almost needless to remark that Mr. Angus Greges is its proprietor ; for his skill, en- genuity and enterprise have made his name and his factory ‘household words.’ Ten years age Mr. Gregor commenced business. At first he worked on a small scale. Per- sonally he superintended and worked at every department of the establishment. Orders left with him were promptly and well executed. The latest and best im. provements in his line were always intro- duced. Gradually his business grew. Now the machinery in his factory is driven by a ten horse power horizontal acting high pressure engine—built on the premises. The machinery consists of circular saws, for ripping up and cross-cutting; wood- lathes and boxing machines ; jig-saw and dowelling machine; a vertical power drill for iron, and a firstsclass screw cutting self-acting engine lathe, besides other labor saving machines. A force pump, outside the building, can, on occasion, be used as a Steam Fire Engine. Mr. Gregor now employs twelve men; and turns out annually about thirty well.finished car- riages ; about thirty sleighs ; from twenty- five to thirty threshing machines; fifteen to twenty sets of fanners. He imports the fine woods-—such as oak, hickory, bass and white wood—which are used in the esta blishment; but all the work—including ironing, painting and turning-is done on the premises. The value of the tinished

works annually turned out of the establish. ment is from $8,000 to $10,000.

ro oe wets “ THE UTILITY OF CLOTHES.”

** Many of our citizens’’—says the Toron~ to Leader, of late date,—took advantage of the opportunity afforded them last week of inspecting the civic robes of Mayor Med-~ calf, which have been on public view. It will scarcely be disputed by any person, that such a dignified addition to the Coun- cil Chamber of this city is much needed. Order and decorum are certainly qualities which would not win prizes for those whose duty it is to debate and regulate the affairs relating to municipal government in To- ronto, ’

If order and decorum, in debate are—as the Leader's writer seems to imagine—pro. moted in City Councils by Mayors wearing robes, then, we say, let Mayor DesBrisay don his Civic Toga w:thout delay. Napoleon the Great once said “robes and ribbons may be baubles, but they are baubles that govern the world ;’’ and a much wiser mor- alizer has declared that “ the beginning of all wisdom is to look fixedly on clothes.’ it may, perhaps, be questionable, whether the Mayor’s robes could govern this city a, well as the present Corporation. But it would at least, be well to try if by coatem- plating the Mayor's elaborate toga, our City Councillors might begin to act in a wise and business-like manner. By al] means let Mayor DesBrisay optain the robes; and let the trial be made.

Tae JRREPRESSIBLE CoRRESPONDEYNT. — Of course, the leading English newspapers are to send out Special Correspondents to chronicle the movements of the Prince of Wales in India. Some of the gentlemen will be very much in earnest, and exceed. ingly anxious to transmit the earliest intel~ ligence of everything that occurs around and to the Prince, as the following, which we find in the Atheneum, shews :—* Apros pos of the visit of numerous correspondents to India, a story reaches us which is all the

KINGS COLLEGE, WINDSOR.

Wer should like to see our young men

and the young men of the neighboring Pro- vinces, as well—trained for their life’s work | in this Island. We have great natural ad- vantages. We have a good, exhilerating climate, a long, quiet, undisturbed winter ;— the cost of living here is cheap ; and the Jiving itself comfortable—even agreeable— but not luxurious or enervating. This Is just the place fora first-class college or | Such an institution has not, |

U riversity. | however,been provided ; and our young men are compelled to go abroad, if they wish to | obtain a really good education. in casting

about for the best institutions of learning , in the Maritime Provinces, their attention |

should be drawn to the claims of King’s Col- lege, Windsor. It is the oldest College in | British America, and has educated many | of the most eminent men of the Lower Pro- | vinces ; und the cost of attending it is re | markably cheap. Our contemporary the Herel, of Halifax, lately had an article upon it from which we quote :—

‘The present year is an eventful one for King’s. It has, so to speak, “ changed its front,” and meets the “struggle for life’ with new material, fresh energy and an outspoken statement of confidence in its capacity to do its work zealously and well.

it admits to its privilleges, students of all denominations, requiring no religious test and, except in the case of divinity stu- dents, and members of the church of Eng- land, no compulsory attendance at the Suns day services of the College Chapel, but de- nominational students are required to pro~ cure certificates of regular attendance at Sunday services from the minister of the church to which they belong. Besides Ma- triculated students in Arts and in Civil En- gineering, there has been established a third class of Elective students ‘+ who desire to attend during an Academical year or term, one, two or more courses of lectures.” Hence, both as regards religious tolerance

riculum is as liberal and unfettered as can be desired.

Its scholarship and prizes are numerous and valuable, and if a student avails him- self of one of no less than eighty nomina, tions in the gift of friends of the College, he can with industry and ability, honorably win his entire expenses of a three years’ college career.

During his residence the student enjoys the advantages of by far the finest library in the Maritime Provinces, of an excellent museum, and of a thoroughly competent and energetic staft of professors to instruct and train.

The new President, [the Rev. John Dart,

M. A., of Oxford,] we learn brings wtih hima a rare accomplishment, that of the art of training young men, an art acquired by experience in the Training College, at Pe. terborough, England, of which he waa Vice-~ President, when recently selected by the | Archbishop of Canterbury to fill the honor- able post of President of King’s.

According to existing regulations the re- sidence of a student at King’s College in~ volved a daily record of his life while there, for a register is kept of his attendange at lectures throughout the year, and of* his performing the duties required by the minister of the Church to which he belongs, if represented at Windsor.

The same regulation is in force witli re- gard to boys attending the Collegiate Schoo), now resestab'ished under the supervision of the President and Vice-President of the College. ‘These two institutions are as it | were, under the same Professor, and under | the same control, so that passing from the | Collegiate School 13 the College is but a step in advance i the same system of liberal and effective education.

Such is a brief outline of the new claims which King’s College offers to the youth of the Maritime Provinces, and it will rejoice all its friends to hear that already, a month before the exercises commence, three times &@s Many new students have enrolled their names as during any of several preceding years. The “change of front’ is a vast | change for the better, and it brings the old- } est college in Protestant British America amongst the foremost in the ranks of those inst tutions, who are endeavoring earnestly to meet the demands of the age, and to serve the'r country in the culture and train ing of its youth.”’

‘LORD DUFFERIN.

‘Current Events” in the Cunadian Monthly for August has the following very sensible and pertinent remarks anent the recent speech of Lord Dufferin which we think worthy of reproduction :—‘’ Lord Dufferin in England is the same ardent triend of Canada we have found him to be from the first. Here he stands in no need of panegyric. Every one recognizes the wisely impartial character of his adminis~ tration, the charm of his manner, and the eagerness with which he has sought to identify himself with Canadian interests and Canadian aspirations. he most in- veterate of Tories would be disposed to condone many offences of the Gladstone Administration in consideration of the happy instinct which selected for us the most popular Governor General we have had for thirty years. He has been the first, within contemporary memory, to keep Canada before his eyes, even during vaca- tion. At the dinner given in his honor at the Canada Club, His Excellency’s speech could not have been more distinctly Can. adian if he had been born and reared amongst us. His identification with Can. adian progress and Canadian feeling was almost prssionate in its utterance. ‘The first assurance Lord Dufferin had to give, was one about which there can be no mis. take:—‘!f there is one especial message which a person in my situation is bound to transmit from them to you, it is this—that they desire to maintain intact and unims paired their connection with this country that they cherish an incradicable conviction of the pre-eminent value of the political system under which they live, and that they are determined to preserve—pure and uncontaminated—all the traditional instincts of England’s prosperous polity.’ There would have been no need to state this obvious fact so explicitly had not political rancor busied itself in ‘flinging reckless charges of disloyalty and treason at the heads of awkward opponents. Nor would the American press have suffered itself to be beguiled into the belief that there is a thick vein of anti-British senti- ment permeating the Dominion, if our politicians had oniy learned to speak fairly and honestly one of another.”

ARTESIAN WELLS.

The Philadelphia Times publishes a let-~ ter showing that the water of artesian wells is not fit to drink. There is an artesian well at Reading 2,000 feet deep. costing $22,600, which contains ferty seven grains epsom salt to the gallon. An artesian well at Fifth and Cherry street, Philadelphia, contains 116 grains of foreign matter to the gallon, and can only be used to condense steam for the boiler. An artesian well at South street furnishes water not fit for steam. At Seventh street and Passyunk road there are two artesian wells, each 100 feet deep, but the water of both is so im- pure that it can only be used for condensing. The water at the Continental !Jotel is not pure. At Louisville there is a well 2.649 feet deep, one in St. Louis 2.036 feet deep, one in South Bend. and one in Terre Haute but the water of all is impregnated with minerals, and fit only for medicina] uses. At Atlantic City a number of wells have been bored in the hope of getting pure water, but not one yields water fit for houses hold use.

The total value of goods imported at | Montreal during the first eight months of | the present year was $26,599,132, against | $30,278,340 in the same period of 1874.
