Summer Carnival
As already intimated by Tze Examiner, St. John, Halifax and other places of more vr less importance are moving in the mat- ter of a summer carnival. But as yet no- thingis being done in that direction in Charlottetown. If our people intend hav- ing a celebration of any description the coming summer it is time they were begin-
ning work, Al! that is necessary to ensure success isa little push and energy on the part of our influential men. If the right men do not take hold of the scheme at its inception, failure may be expected. Every- thing depends upon a good start being
made.
THe ExaMiner suggests a two days’ cele- bration about mid-summer; the programme of a firemen’s tournament

~- Archbishop Fabre has issued a Pas- toral to his priests in which he says :
‘*‘ Let us remain, my dear co-workers, with- in the role which Previdence has traced for as. Up to the present time we have exercised an immense alleen for good, because we have been united; but once let disunion appear in our ranks, let the members of the clergy constitute themselves politica: pertizans, and our inflvence ceases, our auth: wity diminishes
and souls are lost by our fault. Let us see that the moral lawsare folluwed, This is our role. But let us not expose ourselves to the
fire of political combat. Parties change; the revulsion against us is a danger which one should fear. [exhort you in the Lord to re- ceive with a humble and docile heart the grave warnings which I have addressed ou, and I hope that all will give an example > of obedience and respect due to authority,

— Dominion INustrated (March 21), Says: ‘** One of the spurs which the riders of the annexation hobby have been using is that if Canada were taken over by the United States, our manifold resources would be more expeditiously and profitably developed. Possibly they would. But would Cana- dians get their fair share of the fruits of that development! We fear that we would be like the sheep that are fleeced, and the bees whose gathered sweets are used, not own benefit, but for that of others.” “jhe point is well taken. Our wealth of mie@apd forest would be taken away to supply United States manufacturers. Wh: at we want is a laTge- manufacturing population in Canada, to work “wp-for us— not for the Americans—the raw m: sreTLAls | which Providence has distributed with bountiful hand throughout Canada.

Mr. John McAulay, of St. Peter’s Road, Lot 54, died on Sunday, 24th inst. Mr. Me :Aulay was thrown from a wagon some days ago, and never recovered from the eifects of his injuries.

[ ADVERTISEMENT. | Sir,—The statement made »* me in your paper a few weeks ago, that W. C. Lea, while giving evidence on oath in ak, charged me with upsetting the Bible, tearing up the car- pet, and otherwise creating a commotion in the Church, is denied by that individual in a later issue. Inthe course of a rambling, i coherent article, he says that he a Os no reference to the Bible, neither did he say or swear that allor any of the gossip was true. But { maintain that he did say so, and can prove my contention by the evidence of Richard Lee, John Hall Lee, Johnstone Lord, Josiah Howatt and John Howatt, each and all of whem were present in court, and who have authorized me to use their names in this connection. Itis true that I declined pro- ceeding against him before a Church court, as such action would militate against me in ‘the Supreme Court, where I subsequently ob- tained a verdict against him. As to his refer- ence about being kicked out of the choir, he saved the Church that trouble by resigning the position. His assertion that I have been, and am still, censuring a respectable body of Christians, is not true. I respect and honor the Methodists of Tryon as a body with whom I have associated since my boyhood days, and amoug whom I fouglit. life’s battle, but I detest and scorn the hypocrite who uses reli- gion as acloak to wrong and rob his neighbor.
