SIR CHARLES VINDICATED.

ee

Tue editor of the Halifax Chronicle has

published the following paragraph : “Referring to the open letter whioh ap- ared in the Morning Chronicle of the

25th February last, the editor and proprie-

tor of this newspaper desire to explain that

it wes not thereby intended to make any charge whatever agarnst Sir Charles Tup- per; thatthery have no information or knowledge io their possession to justify the

making of such charge, and that they re- gret the publication of the letter in question,

80 far asthe same in any way reflects upon Sir Charles Tupper.”

Sir Charles has ev lently taught the Liberals a lesson. Liberals will in future

be careful not to publish the slanderous of the These yarns are They may p thaps be referred to in Parliament, for

THE SITUATION.

A very much interested people will be pleased to note the ability and repatation of Mr. W.S. Stewart, Q. C., has entered upon a discussion of the Provincial Mr. Stewart intimates that the letter published by Tue Examiner to-day will be followed by others. Asaresult we shall have that which is greatly needed, viz., a thorough investigation and a clearer per- ception of the condition and trend of Provincial affairs. We have no doubt that Mr. Stewart’s opinions will excite comment and criticism; and we hope that the discussion will be carried on in a manly with a view tothe betterment of a situation which is,as Mr. Stewart says, “really perilous.” Ali that may be said or written will, of course, be tentative. It remains

that a gentleman of situation.

way,

for the representatives of the people,—that isto say, all those who disapprove of the course that has been pursued by the present Administration— to adopt a policy under which the difficul- ties of the situation will be overcome and the independence of the Province pre- served. ———___—seea--——- -—

AUSTRALIAN DAIRY PRODUCTS.

Tue Farmer’s Advocate points out that the successful progress of the Australian Dairy industry is even more remarkable than that of the Danish, especially when the obstacles are considered. The colony of Victoria alone, with an agricultural population of only a little more than 65,- 000, in five years shows an increase in butter exported, from practically nothing to some $6,000,000. When Canada has done as well in butter and cheese com- bined, our exports will be $50,0¢0,000 instead of $15,000,000 worth. The British market is five or six weeks distant from Australia, and the torrid zone between, their lands less fertile than ours, and the Canadian winter fully off-et by the drouzht and heat of Australia. Ifthe dairy revolu- tion aff-cted there does not merit attention we need hardly look in any direction. They have the advantage of nearly all the year pasture. But all things considered, we Ought to place our butter in Britain not only much more cheaply but in vastly better condition ; that is to say Canadian butter should sell for more money thao Australian and give the Canadian dairyman a better net return.

A SHARP CONTRAST.

Some persons in Ontario seem to think that Hon. Mr. Peters cannot, becauze he comes from a small Province, conduct a large case, and ought not to have been made leading counsel for Canada in respect to our Bebring Sea claims. We hope that the result wil! prove that they are mistaken. Mr. Peters will, at all events, we believe, make a good fight for Canada. Upon personal and Provincial grounds, we see no reason why a Toronto lawyer should have been preferred to him. But there is, without doubt, a good deal of truti and force in the foilowing remarks of the Hali- fax Herald:

“It will be remembered that when the International Commission met in Paris to consider the whole matcer of Behring Sea seals and sealing, Sir John Thompson was Minister of Justice, and Hon. Charles Hibbert Tupper, Minister of Marine and Fisheries of the Dominion. Sir John Thompson was one of the Court of Ar- bitration, representing Great Britain, and Hon. C. H. Tupper acted as British agent; aod in attending to these duties both for- feited their sessional indemnity to Can ada, and received no sp*cial remuneration from Canada stall, The only counsel employed and paid by Canada was Mr. Christopher Rubinson, QC. It will also he remembered that one of the oft repeated

grit charges againet the liberal con- servative government, was the large

amount of public money they were alleged to be in the habit of paying out in “ legal expenser,” such payments being called “ boodie” and “ corruption funds.” Now when the grit governwent have to deal with « far smaller matter than the former, when merely @ sub-idiary question as to the amount of damages is to be deter- mined, we find the Laurierite govern- ment en:ploying, as legal counsel, Premier Peters, of Prince Edward Island, and two other lawyers, one from Montreal and the other from British Columbia, all of whom are to be paid fat fees out of the Dominion Treasury, while Minister of Justice Mowat and Solicitor-General Fitz- oe abe take no part in this piece of public

asiness, aad Minister of Marine and Fish- erivs Davies, himself also a lawyer, does not come forward to save the employment Of outside counsel at the public expense.”

The contrast between the conductof the Liberal-Conservative Ministers in the for-

THE MANITOBA SETTLEMENT.

Accorpixe to THe Examiver’s telegra- phic correspondent, and he is usually rigut, the Manitoba School settlement arrived at involves the employment of Catholic ‘ the attendance amounts to thirty, with half an hour for religious instruction at the close of the day’s teaching A rejected proposition of the delegates of the \ate Sir McKenzie Bowell’s Govern-

achers in all schools of which

ment was as follows :—

“Legislation shall be passed at the pre sent session of the Manitoba Legislature to _ provide that in towns and villages where | there are resident, say, twenty-five Roman Catholic children of school age, and in ; cities where there are, say, fifty of such | children, the Board of Trustees shall arrange that such children shall have a echool-house or school-room for their own | use, where they may be tanght by a Roman Catholic teacher, aud Roman Catholic parents or guardians, say, ten in number, may appeal to the Department of Education from any decision ‘or neglect of

this clause, and the Board sha!l observe and carry out all decisions and directions of the Department on any such appeal.”

So it appears that the basis of the settle- ment is not original.

We sincerely hope that the Catholics of Manitoba will acquiesce in the arrange ment arrived at between the Dominion and Manitoba Governments.

THE TURKISH ATROCITIES,

Gladstone Replies to Lord Rosebery—Great Britain's Position.

Loxpon, October 19.—A meeting, called for the purpose of protesting against Tur- kish atrocities, was beld in St. James’ hall, London, this evening under the chairman- ship ofthe Right Rev. Edward Stuart Taibot, D. D., bishop in Rochester. The hall was crowded to its fullest capacity. A letter from Mr. Gladstone was read, in which the ex-prime minister declared it would be a wild paradox to say the en- forcement of British treaty rights to stop systematic massacres in Turkey would provoke hostilities from the powers. He added that it would be abandoning duty and prudence to advertise beforehand for the ears of the great assassin that British action was limited, to what the most backward of the six powers deemed suffi- cient. If fundamental distrust of Great Britain and belief that she is pursuing a selfish policy in the Eastern Mediterranean caused some powers to be backward, that was matter that deserved to be gravely considered,

Loxpoyx, Oct. 19.—John Carvel! Wil- liams, M. P., a day or twoago forwarded to Lord Salisbury the resolution adopted by the Baptists of Great Britain express- ing regret atthe inaction of the powers and the hope that the government would speedily and fully explain their position in regard to Turkey. Lord Salisbury replied that he is unable to speak freely of the matter. Great Britain, be said, is not taking isolated action in Constantinople. It is obvious that there are objections to his speaking with freedom upon the sub- j ct, which would not exist if Great Bri- tain were acting independently of other Kuropean powers.

New York, Oct. 19.—A commtttee ap- pointed ata mass meeting in the Jersey Vity Tabernacle, last night, to protest against the Armenian massacre, sent the following despatch to President Cleve- land : — “ Grover Cleveland,

Executive Mansion. Dear Sir,—Citizens of Jersey City, in mass meeting assembled, respectfully urge that you insist ona gnardship at Constantinople and take eifective measures to secure the indemnity of $100,600 for outrages committed against our fellow citizens in Turkey eleven months ago.” ———_———>- oe NO PROSECUTION YET,

THE PROVINCIAL SITUATION,

Letter From Mr. W. 8S, Stewart, Q. C.

Six,—It will soon be six years since the present government obtained control of our local atfairs—long enough, in all con- science, to demonstrate the capacity or incapacity of any body of men assuming the responsibility of directing the business of a Province. And what of the record made? I will not speak of it now, but before concluding this correspondence I will have something to say, not only of their promises but of their performance.

A general election will not, in all proba- bility, come off before next spring or sum- mer, and this should be an opportune time, before men’s minds are uuduly ex- cited and led away by demagoyic arts from the contemplation of a grave and critical state of affairs for a thorough and complete discussion of our financial posi- tion. It will readily be admitted that the aituation which confronts the Province is really perilous, and unless a radical change takes place we shall soon be tottering to our ruin. Iam not now going to enter into details or give figures. This can be

| done later on, but I may assume for the

present that no one will deny the precari— ousness of our circumstances, or the necessity that exists for a eolution of the difficulty which has from the first confronted the present Local Government and which has been proved to be completely beyond the power of its members to grapple with and unravel. While the debt of the Province has been, year after year, bounding up till it is now well nigh unto a half a milllon dollars involving a yearly payment for interest of about $20,000, our local rulers present the pitiable epectacle of appearing to stand paralyzed before a situation of their own creation. With poor markets and low prices tor our agricultural products, Grit and Tory alike stand amazed at a state of affairs which is year after year adding to our debt and increasing the large amount which will have to be paid annually as interest, The people are not only anxious but irritated; for while the tax- gatherer makes his rounds each year with the utmost regularity, the sums collected seem to do no good, for the debt increases at arate almost as rapid, if not more rapidly, than when no taxes whatever were paid. This should not be, and a radica) change should be determined on at once. But your readers may ask,and nodoubt will ask, what is proposed. Thatisa question for more minds than one to solve and as those composing the present government seem to have lost their grip and have proved themselves incapable of managing the af- fairs of the Province with anything approaching success, I would sug- gest the calling of a conven- tion of all opposed to the gov- ernment, whether they be tory, patron or independent, to decide upon not only a proper financial echeme for our Province, but upon a basis of action todefeat a re- sourceless and incompetent government. To accomplish this, the honest, sturdy men of the country must come forward ina patriotic and business spirit without regard to previous party affiliations.

In entering upon a newspaper discus- sion my purpose is not to cut out an op- position platform. That should be form- ed by a convention of delegates from the whole Province. In the meantime a dis- cussion of our finencial position cannot but be beneficial, and if any one has a plan to offer this is the time to be heard. Anything in this line should be promotive of a good scheme for sound financial mar- agement. It is very easy to eay all un- necessary expenditure must be abolished. The people are sick and tired of hearing this promised and never carried out, and it is just as easy to say the difficuity can be met by increasing the taxes. The taxes need not be increased. I believe there can be efficient management of our affairs with- out increasing to any appreciable extent the burdens of the people and without adding one dollar to the already large debt that bas been incurred. How can this be man- aged? Abolish the land and income taxes, retaining the taxes on commercial travel- lers, incorpo companies and succes— sion duties, and our ordinary revenue without counting the land office receipts, will be sufficient to meet all the services of ths Province except the payment of Teachers salaries, and leave a balance of about $45,000, which can be devoted to education, and the balance required for the payment of teachers can be raised by the trustees,

TALL BUILPINGS IN ANTIQUITY,

That the tall buildings are not modern id:as is shown by Professor Lonciani, in the North American Review. In Rome much the same teudency was shown to erect tall buildings as has been experienced of late years in America, They had not steel construction to aid them or elevators to land their tenants on upper floors, yet the desire to build lofty buildings was strong upon them, and successive emper- ors issued edicts limiting the height cf houses, seventy feet being allowed by Augustus on the atreet front, but these regulations were repeatedly violated. With the present day facilities for iron or steel construction and the knowledge of elevators, the Romans would doubtless have matched the Americans in “sky- scrapers.” As it was, these ancient houses were often a hundred feet high. The Romans were great builders, and their speculators in this line would, without doubt, match of modern times in utilizing ever inch of space without regard to light andair. Tenement house reform would have had in those early days a wide field to work in. Whatever else may be sail of their Cesare, it must be recognized tha. they bad an eye tu the health aud comfort of the common people and used their efforts to check such buildings.
