22, 1900 HON. THOMAS W. DODD.

ny eet

Avrmoven his years had extended be- yond the limit at which a man’s atrength ie said to be “jabor and sorrow,” the death of the Honourable Thomas Walker Dodd, tbis morning, came as a shock to the com- muvity, He wae present at the marriage of hie daughter on Wedneeday last, gave

the bride away, and afterwards accepted the congratulations of hisfriende in the spirit cf the genial eld gentleman that he was. Oo Wednesday evening he was in a particularly happy mood,and throughout yesterday was very well in health and

rpirite. But last evening, feeling indiv- posed, he retired early. Throughout} the wight he suffered great pato

ia the region of the {lungs and heart,’ his symptoms being thuse of acute preu- m oie; and thie morning, at five o’clock, h's 8pirit passed away.

Covering @ period of upwarde of eighty yeare, the greater part of which was passed in Crarlottetown, entering with quiet zeet into business and politios, and social and domestic concerns, tke life of the deceased gentleman was coincident with the life, and growth, and prosperity of Charlottetown. He eaw Charlottetown firet as a mere village, surrounded by the forest primeval ; and he lived to see it, at the last, aconsiderable town, snpplied witb every modern cenvenience, main- tained by a thrifty and prosperous agricultural community, and to be one of | its wealthy and most honored citizens.

He was born at Newcastle-on-Tyne, Eogland,on the 25th of December, 1819, tue eon of Captain Simon W. Dodd, and he came here with his parents when yet in infancy. Entering into business bere he was soou successful; and for many yeare he remained at the head of the prosperous firm of Dodd & Regers.

His public career began in 1861 when he was appointed a Justice of the Peace. Io 1855 and 1866 he served as Bigh Sheriff of Queen’s County Ee wasa Commie- siouer of the Court of Charlottetown for the recovery of emall debts until its abolii oi. In 1&67 and 1870 he was an untuccesaful candidate in Charloite- town for the Hcuse of Assemtly. But in 18°2 .e was retirmed for the Legislative Council, on the r-signation of the Hon. T. Gd. Hev:'and; anl he was reelected in (e74, becoming Les ec of the Opposition avd then Leader of ihe Government in the Uyper Cn: mber. He was Provinciai Secretary from Septemter, 1878, tu March i879. Atter the abolition of the Legislas tive Council be retired from politics.

lo 1Si4 ne married the second daugh- ter of William Gardiner, Esq., of this city:

the Hon. Dr. Johneon, of Liacoloshire, Eagland, and widow of the late Witham Pethick, Esquire; and Jater the widuw of the lute James Coleman, E:quire, Siperintendent of the P. KE. Island Railway.

Tae passing awey of one who bas finished an honorable and Christian couree of well-nigh eightystwo years ia not to be regreticd 9s that of a passing away in the prime of life. Itis the payment of th- debt to nature upon its full matnrits; it i¢ | the breaking of the golden bow! after t .e nectar of life has beendrained to the dregs. Yet even in this there is the shock aud pain of the parting bere. In their eorrow we heartily sympathise with thore who are most bereaved, particularly with M:re. Dodd, with Dr. Dodd and his wife, and with Mre. Mahon, tke happy bride of Wedveeday last, now mourning the lo:s of a loved and loving father,—gone to meet other loved ones in another sphere.

SUPPOSE,

“Suppose the Conservative party was sillin power at Otttawa, and had done the very thingsthat have been done io the past four yeare, what would the Liberal prese be saying abovt it today ?

‘Suppose the Conservatives had raised the annual expenditure by at least ten miliion dollars, where could Sir Richard Cariwright go for inveetive and vituper- ation to vent bie indignation that was a, flood tide when the expenditure was ten million dollars less ? Would he have ex- cused or defended the increase by plead- ing on beha); w'=.he Conservative Gov- eroment that the growing tine demanded the extraordinary expenditure ?

“ Suppoee they bad made the very same’ changes in the tanff that have been made in the past four yeare, would the Liberals have agreed that that wae sufficient?

‘ Suppoee they hadon the eve ofa Parliamentary session signed contract agreeing to give nearly four million acres of land for 125 miles of tramway travers- ing @ disputed territory, would the Lib-~ erals have agreed thet the bargain was a wise sod provident one? they have excased hasie in making the bargain by asserting that the case was urgent and that riot aod femine in the Yukon cou'd bé prevented only by the rapid building of that road ? And suppore thatthe con-~- tract was annulled by tne Senate, would the Liberal Opposition denounce thet body as the arch enemy of Canada? Would they hold the Goveroment blame- jess when the contractor’s bi/! for dam- ares amounting toover $3(0,000 was up for setiJemeat ?

“Suppose a combine gained cortrul of binde. twine, uoduly enbancing the price, and the Conservative Goverament sold twine of its own manufactore to the Can- adian agents of the combine, would the L.berale excuse.the high price by attri- buting it entirely the warin the Puillip- pises ?

‘‘ Suppose the Conservatives kept up the practice of dangling promises of effice tefore members of Parliament, in coatra - veation of the Independence of Parlia- ment Act, would Mr. Maulock have rein- troduced his bill to put a stop to the prac ice?

** Suppose the country enjoyed the same degree of proeperity--as it assuredly would—do you think the Liberals would thank the Government for it ?

** Suppose that this Conservative Gov. eroment had granted the same railway subsidies as were granted in the past four years, would they have the same abl- aod eloqueot defence from the Lib: ral- ?” — Kincardive Review.

NOTES AND COMMENTS,

— Tne United States military reiaforce~ ments that were ordered to China are landivg in the Philippines, where their assietacce is warmiy welcomed by thore who have long beeu carrying on tue bur- den of warfare.

— We note in the Anditor General's re port for 1899, under the headiog ‘Cold Storage on Steamships, ei¢ , and trial shipmen:s,” the followiog item of Govern- meatal exp nditare:

“ Ratteutury, B. & M., Charlot'etown, guarantee of ha f deficit between rental of $1,650 and earnicgs $439.45 , $605.27.”

What does this mean? Has this ex- penditure any connection with the chick~ ens shipped to Englard last year which *“ went bad?” When had we the advan- t-ge ofatrial shipment in cold storage, @uy vay ?
