LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

> --—-

Letter from Mr. Haslam.

Sir, —I notice in the Patriot of the 10th inst. a communication signed ‘* John Moore,” Crapaud, in which that gentleman criticizes at some length a letter of mine} that appeared in THe EXAMINER some four weeks ago. Mr. Movre makes some Cvarse, persunal allusions, aud fiads fau.t with my English. He also makes a desperate effort to be funny, and in this he has been very successful, for surely it would be impossible for anyone to crowd more blunders aad misstatements, more nonsense and bun- combe, into a column of reading matter than Mr: Moore has managed to get into his letter. I would strongly advise any of your readers, who like to be amused and enjoy a laugh, tu procure a Patriot of the 10th iust. and read the epistle, for it cer- tainly is a curiosity. He says, first of ail, that | at the late election found fault with Mr. Sutherland asan ansuitable man to represent the First Electoral District. Wich all due respect to Mr. Moore, 1 think gu still. Be then says | made some mis- statements on the corn question, but le«ves us entirely in the dark as to what those misstatements were. He also casts doubt on my statement as to the Island’s freedom from taxation, but fails entirely to meet my argument. Then he speaks of Protection as an *‘ exploded nostrum.” Who told Mr. Moore this? Surely when Protection 1s believed in and practised by every import-

Great Britain; and more than that, the tendency of the times ail around 1s rather to increase than todo away with protec- tion, ,it scarce can be called an exploded doctrine. Mr. Moore read this somewhere and took it for granted it was true.

Mr. Moore says 1 made a misstatement on the corn question. Will he kindly tell us what it was? He says I called the s‘x men we send to Ottawa to represent us tle ‘(Grit delegation,” and implies that this was wrong, considering what fine men they are and what services they render the country. I do not say anything against Mr. Davies as a member. I don’t like his pulitics. I am opposed to his opinions on trade matters, but | freely yrant his abiliry and that he does us no discredit. But i say that, for the other five men, it is a shame and a disgrace that other and better men cannot be chosen. Surely a great party can find as its exponent a more suit- able man than James Yeo, who has not one qualification for the position.

He chides ine for not knowing that the C. P. R is the cause of all this cheap corn, And yet as a matter of fact the C. P. R. has no more to do with it than the Suez Canal. Ameicin pork came into the Maritime Provinces be- fore the C. P. R. was thought of, The beef is brought principally by way of Portland and the N. B. & M. railway. Mr. Movre, however, read this statement in the Patriot and if he had investigated the matter would have found it, like a good many more of the Patriot's statements, untrue.

He criticizes me for saying that the staple products of the Island are oats, beef and pork. say sostill; and they always will be, except in a few cases where farmers are near shipping ports, where potatoes are largely grown. He also says that the Do- minion Government robs us, but fails to show in what way. I say that we are freer from taxation than any other people in the civilized world, both as regards Federal and local taxation, _I would prove it did space allow. With his knowledge of statistics is he aware that the products of the unobtru- sive little hen brought more money to the Island last year than the oat crop! This is the next conundrum Mr. Moore propounds. I confess I did not nor any person else, and this shows how stupendously ignorant Mr. Moore must be. He has likely got the idea from some Grit paper, and took it for truth. The fact is that at least half the farmers rely alinost solely on the proceeds of their oat crop for.a living, and the balance make it the great source of their revenue by feed- ing it to their horses, cattle, hogs aud “* un- obtrusive little hen.” But this is not all. There was more money’s worth of oats ex- ported from the Island last year than of any other products or two products. But as the bulk of it was sent across to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia in schooners, consequently no record of it has been kept. All the account we have is of what has been sent to foreign coun- tries. Some ignorant fvol knowing no better makes the statement that our hens bring us more money than our oats, and Mr. Moore believes him. He then finds fault with the policy of the Dominion Gov- ernment as irritating and the cause of the action of the American Congress in pro- posing to put a duty on eggs and raising the duties on potatves, horses, ete. Will Mr. Moore be good enough to show us how the Dominion Government's conduct has been irritatibg, and explain how it is that Congress is increasing the duties all around, on every article that suffers from foreign competition. As a matter of fact, the con- duct of the Canadian Government has no more to do with the placing of a duty on eggs than the conduct of the Chinese Gov- ernment had to do with the late embargo placed on the importations of Chinese la- borers. The American laborer wanted pro- tection, and he got it. Now, the American farmer wants protection. He will likely get it too. I have no more time to spend on Mr. Moore at present, but if he will bring a little moderation and some know- ledge to the subject, I will discuss Uure- stricted Reciprocity with him.

[louses, barns and outbuildings were demolished. One woman was killed by lightning at Mount Clomens, and a number of persons injured in other places.

Oberlin, Ohio, April 9.—Business honses and cellars were flooded bya heavy rain storm last night

Prophetstown, Lil., April 9.—The track of M mday’s storm was a mile wideanda mile long. No loss of life. Damage to property will not exceed $20,000. A num- ber of persons were injured.

Anchor, Ill, April 9.—The town hall was unrovfed by a storm lost evening. Hail stones of prodigious size fell, and it is feared the storm has dune great damage elsewhere ip this Jocality.

Highland Park, Iil., April 9.—A fierce sturni swept over this place about 11 o'clock lust night, doing heavy damage to property. Oaly one persun was injured, but a num- ber had narrow escapes.

News Notes.

Alaska has three weekly newspapers— one at Sitka and two at Juneau.

A New York synilicate, to buy and set apart a game preserve in the Adirondacks, has been formed,

Nine hours, without reduction in wages, has been granted the 2,200 workmen em- ployed in twelve marble factories in Boston.

A New York despatch announces that a letter from Havana says the question of the annexation of Cuba to the United States is steadily growing more ‘serious, and the Government commences to be alarmed.

The London Herald prints an interview with Stanley in which the latter maintains that Germany influenced Emin while he was ill, and that Emin doubtless 1evealed the proposals S:anley mide t» him at Wadelai. Stanley thinks the Germans in- tend to annex, and will on these plans. If Germany secures the Lake Region, he says it will destroy the whole value of the British coast possessions.

“SARRISTER

“Lucky Lad.”

TIYHESE renowned Clydesdale Horses will be sold at PUBLIC AUCTION, on the

MARKET SQUARE, ON FRIDAY, ikth APRIL,

AT 2 O'CLOCK, P. M.

Half the purchase money to be paid at time of sale. A credit of 12 months will be given for the balance on approved security.

* BARRISTER” and “LUCKY LAD” are so well known to the public interested in horses that it is deemed necessary to say but little concerning them.

‘“ BARRISTER,” which was foaled in 1878, was exiibited at many of the leading Shows in the Old Country, and never left the riag without a ribbon. Heon this side has com- peted in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and State of Maine, and was always placed first. At our Provincial Exhibitions he has never been beaten, excepting by ‘“* Lucky Lad.” His stock is more favorably kuown in the Maritime Provinces aud State of Maine, both as good workers and prize wianers than any other horse of the draught breed.

“ LUCKY LAD” was foal d in 1884, aad was a short lect horsesat the great Glasgow Spring Stallion Show, in March, 1887. He entered the ring with no less than 72 of tle best 3-year-old horses of Scotland, and was one of twelve left in the circle from which the winner was selected. He is a very stylish, .ctive horse, and as near faultless in confor- mation as any big horse to be found. He has been shown twice at our Provincial Exhibi- tion and was placed first each time. His progeny took first prize at Charlottetown as foal at foot, at Exhibition, October, 1588, and first prize as yearling and second prize as weanling at Exhibition held in Octobrr last.

These horses have never had to leave their stables in Charlottetown to make a fall

season, R. BELERSTO, Auctioneer.

NOTE.—The reason for disposing of these horses 2s above is that Mr. U. C. Gardiner, beiag part owner, and being also President und aetive Direetor of the Exhibition Corm- mittee, has determized to sell in order to pre- vent its being said that his interest in them conflicts with the independence of his position as a Director in the selevtion of compete st Ju ie aioe Pcbiiatele.
