had the right to refuse, te pay which the Government itself did for, but were expressly relieved from upon the ground that they were held adversely. For twenty years no Government has at- tempted to interfere with these men and their holdings, and it has remained for Mr. Fred Peters, with his one man legislature and King Caucus, to pass an Act which enables him, without the aid of a trial by jury, to compel those men or their des- the purchasers to pay for lands which had been out of the

cendenta or

possession of the Government and proprie- tors for nearly forty years if not more. We object tothe Act now in question because it is not a bona fide act to collect arrears honestly due the Land Office, and because it has deprived the squatter of the right of a trial before a judge and jury, in which the question to be decided would be whether he or his ancestors had been in possession adversely tothe proprietor be fore the lands came into the hands of the Government, and because it does not re- cognize any possession short of twenty years ia the squatter prior to that time. Wealso object to it because it is retro spective, and declares that the Staiute of Limitations (under which 20 years’ posses- sion would confer a good title) does not, and never did, apply to the case of a squatter who had not acquired a “ title” before the land became the Government’s, On this latter point, Mr. Bell, a lawyer and a member of the House, when the Act was under consideration, and also Mr. McKinnon, a lawyer and member for Mur- ray Harbor, stated as their opinion that the Statute of Limitations applied, in all cases, and that where a “ squatter” was in poxzsession for twenty years, no matter who had the land, the “ squatter” could not be ejected. Mr, Peters, the Attorney- General, was of a different opinion, at least he so expressed himself, but at the same time he took care to insert a clause in the act, making his opinien law! This action on the Attorney-General’s part is more expressive than his and shows what he himself thought of his own expressed opinion. We also object to the Act because it does not provide for any trial before the court regarding the justice of the amount claimed by the Government

words,

or permit any inquiry into its regu- larity. “The Court shall give judgment, deciaring the amount due.” That is what the Court of Chancery must do after being deprived of any consideration regarding the Statute of Limitations.

There are many other serious objections to be urged against the iniquity of this law. Time and space to-day do not admit of mentioning The farms affected by this outrageous Act are unknown. The Pioneer newspaper, edited by Mr. Bell, a member of the Legislature and a supporter of Mr. Peters in a recent article in denunciation of the law, places the number at over 700. Whether the number is above or below the mark, at preeent there are no means of finding out, Atany rate, a large number of tar- mers, whe have for years been iu peace- abls possession ot their lands, and who recognized neither proprietor nor Govern- ment, and who have made valuable im provements upon the belief that they were the owners—will, if this iniquitous law

which, together with the becoming mod- ty of his demeanour an i the moderation his statements, won for him the sym-

patby of the Senate, and ensures hima

; favcrable hearing when he again claims

the attention of the senatcrs.

The Manitoba Government have a dele- vation here to interview the Government und likely inaday or so interesting de- velopreents will be fortbcoming.

Last year an effort was made to remove he duty on coal, but owing to the vigor yus action of the Maratime Province re- presentatives nothing in that direction was ione. It is rumored that an attempt will be made this session to have the change affected; but in the face of the falling off in the revenue itis not likely to be suc- cessful

Mr. McLennan of Glengarry will intro- ince a bill to prevent the letting of con- tracts to aliens and another to compel Kailway Companies to issue second class return tickets.

Mr. Wilson, of Lennox, introduced a bill to amend the weights and measures act.

In answer toa question it appears that the Governor General’s warrants issued on ac- sount of Sir John Thompsonr’s funeral amount to $25,000.

Hon. Mr. Foster anno inced that Legis- lation was about being introduced into the Nefoundland Legislature designed to pave the way for the settlement of the French shore question in that eolony. 4: is said that the bill empowers the Imperial author- ities to consent to the cession to France of exclusive control of some forty miles of the west shore in exchange for her renuncia- tion of all claims to the remainder of the three or four‘bundred miles of coast known as the French shore.

In the Senate, Sir MacKenzie Bowell in following the leader of the Opposition made a very effective speech on the Mani- toba School Question, quoting from Mr. Blake’s resolution on Provincial rights. The resolution said: “It is expedient to provide means whereby on solemn occa- sions touching the exercise of the power of jissa!Jowance er the apparent cause as to educational legislation important questions of law or fact may be referred by the exe- cutive to # igh judicial tribunal for hearing etc.”

He said that was the course pursued by the Conservative party. Ifthe minority in any province expects to have its rights preserved, whether that minority be Roman Catholic or Protestant, it will have to look ts the Conservative body which has controlled Canada since confed- eration, with the exception of five years. He also said, “Although Iam not an ad- vocate, nor am [ in favor, per se, of separ- ate schools. yet [hold that the word of the Sovereign when pledged, no matter whether it is in accord with my particular sentiments or not, should be held inviolate in the governing of the conatry.

He referred tothe debate of 1871 and stated the opinions held by members of the House at that time, when the question of separate schools was under consideration. From the discussion that then took place

it can be clearly seen that when the resolutions were intreduced admitting

Manitoba into the Confederation, it was lieved we were granting the same rights and privileges to the Roman Catholics of Manitoba that had been granted to the minority in Quebec and to the minority in Ontario in relation to schools. It was for this reason, believing that we were conced- ing to that province what they did not then have, that I recerded my vote as I then did; but I trust the day will never arrive when the party with which I am connected will violate any agreement inte which they have entered.”

In conclusion the Premier said:

“I hope sincerely with the mover and seconder of the Address that the people of Manitoba may see their way clear to settle this question among themselves, and to relieve the Parliament of Canada from the serious obligation which will devolve upon them otherwise. Itis a very grave matter for Sthe Government of the Dominion to undertake to deal with a question which solely affects any one section of the country. If the people of Manitoba are patriotic they will keep this question out of the arena of Dominion politics, but if they desire to continue Hinging fire.brands among the electorate of this country, (who I am sure are de- sirous of living in peace and harmony) they will reject all overtures and act upon the suggestions of those who are leading the opposition throughout the country. I can only say that when the time comes, if it should come, for action by this govern- ment, the people of Canada will find that the present administration are quite pre- pared to assume the responsibility which may fall upon them, no matter what the results may be.” (Cheers).

NOTES.

The weather is getting very fine, the grass around the Parliament Buildings looking beautifully green.

Mr. DesBrisay is etill increasing in size, but is enjeying good health.

The ladies’ dresses are particularly styl- ish this spring, the new skirt with four folds on the back and with heavy spring out at the bottom, being greatly worn.

Bicycling for ladies is quite a la mode; but the divided skirt is not often seen as yet.

St. George’s Day, the 23rd April, will be observed by a grand concert in the evening, the House adjourning at 6 p.m.

THE MARKETS.

In potatoes and oats there is nothing moving here, owing to bad roads. The receipts of pork are very small. Prices unchanged. Eggs are in larger supply, and the tendency of the price is down- ward. - As to articles in which we are interested, the markets abroad present no new features to note.

The men employed on relief works by

er in Newfoundland, struck on Tuesday for an increase of wages. The men had been receiving fifty cents a day. They claim this is not sufficient to obtain the necessaries of life.

Dk. ANDERSON’S LECTURE.

Dr. Anperson delivered his lecture ow “Muc »the C. M. B. A., in Mac-

Macbeth” before the C. M. b. A., eachern’s Hall, last evening. The lecture is @ careful and incisive ae oe criti- cism of one of the masterpieces of ee art. The learned doctor was attentively to for about an hour and a half.

It was pleasing to see in the large audience

listened

a consilerable number of the youths of

Charlottetown; and it may be hoped —

the risivg generation will have the goo 55

taste to become familiar with the works of the greatest of dramatists.

A vote of thanks was moved by Mr. J. l. Mellish, seconded by Mr. James Mec- Isaac, carried with applause, and conveyed to the learned lecturer by the chairman, Mr. S. Blanchard.

LETTERS 10 THE EDITOR.

THR PICTOU ROUTE,

Sitr,—The steamer Stanley has been leaving Charlottetown for Pictou at seven o’elock in the morning for some time back, and the express train for Summerside to connect with the Northumberland for Shediac also leaves the city atthe same hour. As soon as the Stanley ceases run- ning the St Lawrence will take her place on the Pictou route, and will probably al- ways leave Charlottetown at six o’clock in the morning. At least that has been the hour of starting onthe trip for several years past. Now, it would be a matter of much greater convenience to the travel- ling public, hotel keepsrs and citizens gen- erally if this time couid be changed from six to seven o’clock—an hour later. It is a positive hardship to travellers te be obliged to make such an early start in the first place, and then be delayed for hours at Pictou before trains leave. Ii is said that all the time prsiible is re- quired by the steamer in discharg- ing and taking in freight. Let a larger number of hands be engaged and the work be pushed through more quickly. Six o’clock is too early for the steamer to

leave. Parties living south of the Hills- borough cannot get over the river in time

and are obliged to stay in town al! the night before in order to be able to take the steamer to Pictou. Usually in the summer, from five to six o’clock in the

morning, the noise made by passing ve- hicles and foot passengers 1s almost in- cessant in some parts of the city. _Lodg- ers in the hotels as well as private citizens are greatly disturbed, while incon senince and extra work of hotel keepers and their servants as well as in private families are very considerable.

All this could be avoided if the steamer would not start unti] seven oclock. The company would be doing a most welcome thing if they can see their way clear to make the change. There is not the least doubt that there would be an increase in the number of passengers, if this could be done.

OBSERVER,

A SPRING TIME MAGAZINE. Women’s colleges receive Dr. Park- hurst’s attention in the May Ladies’ Home Journal, and the vigor with which he treats the subject is unmistakable. His words open up new phases of college training for women which will unques- tionably command not only wide attention but wide discussion. The fact that Flor- eace Nightingale reaches the ripe age of seventy-five this month is made the basis for an interesting sketch of “The Angel of the Crimea,” as she is to-day, show- ing a new _—i portrait ae: and a view of her London home. Eliza- beth Stuart Phelps is tenderly reminiscent of her father, the Jate Anstin Phelps, in the series of “The Man Who Most Influen- ced Me.” Edward Bok answers with much force and directness, a page of ‘Problems of Young Men.” There is a strong flavor of interesting biography to this number of the Journal—sketches with portraits of the heme lives and per- sonalities of “The Wives of Three Auth- ors,” Mrs. George W. Cable, Mrs. Conan Doyle and Mra. Thomas Hardy, being given on one page, while Frank S. Guild

gives a sketch of the popular artist, Alice Barber Stephens, andr Ethel Mackenzie Mackenna writes of

Marie Coreli. John Kendrick Bangs is irresistibly fanny in his report of the sixth meeting of the “Paradise Club.” The full score of the “Concert Mazurka,” by the well known composer, Bruno Oscar Klein, the piano composition which won the second prize in the Journal’s musical series, is given. Exquisitely illustrated and timely articles are Mrs. Mallon’s “Dainty Commencement Gowns” and “The

Silks of the Summer.” Miss Hooper writes of “The Newest Dress Designs,” and Mrs. Hamilton Mott contributes a

valuable article on “The Art of Travelling Abroad.” Women who are ordering their summer stationery will be interested in Mrs. Garrett Webster’s article on “The New Circle for Stationery,” “Ecclesiastical Embroidery,” by Harriet Ogden Morison, is illustrated from original designs. The cover of this May Journal is a reproduc- tien of one of Albert Lynch’s beautiful girls, set into an artistic frame. This beautiful magazine is sold at ten cents per number, and at one dollar per year, by the Curtis Publishing Company, Philadelphia.

In the House of Commons on Tuesday the government was questioned concerning the terms of the treaty of peace between Japan and China. Sir Edward Grey, under secretary, said the terms of the treaty had not been communicated to the government, therefore they were unable to make any statement in regard toit. H. Campbell-Bannerman, secretary of state of war, said he felt called upon to deny the truth of existing rumors that the Duke of Cambridge was about to retire from position of commander-in-chief of army. Replying to a question by Sir Thomas Esmonde, Sir Edward Grey said the imprisonment of ex-queen Liliuakalani of Hawaii is nota mater in which the government could interfere. Sir William Harcourt moved an annuity of £4,000 be paid ex-speaker Peel, James Kier-Hardie moved an amendment fixing the amount at £1,000 per annum, which sum he said was enough. Nobody seconded Mr. Hardie’s amendment, and Sir William Harcourt’s motion was carried.
