while many thousands of dollars will every year be required for its maintenance and to make up the difference between it, expenditures andreceipts. These heavy obligations have been imposed for the furtherance of the political purposes of Mr. Tarte and his Liberal friends- With the same Liberal motive, the Minister of Public Works now prom- ises to double them by the construction of a fourth railway and a fifth means of con- veyance east of Montreal which is as much needed as the fifth wheel of a coach. This is Mr, Tarte’s way of uniting the electorate of Quebec and ob- taining a French contingent to vote for the iiberal party in the House of Commons. Itoperates unfairly towards the rest of Canada, and particularly towards districts like Belfast and Murray Harbor, which really need railway accommodation. But so long as we have the Liberals in office it will be maintained. = tee ee

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

~~ While the earth out of the sewer ex-~ cavations bas for the most part been ap- parently clean and pure, a remarkable ex-

ception has we are informed, been found on Waier Street. An _ intoler~ able stench caused by organic

matters in astate of putrefaction burst out there on Saturday, indicating proxim- ity toa blind well. ‘This discovery goes to prove the truth of Dr. McLeod’s con- tention that blind wells are an abomination and a menace tothe health of the com-~ munity.
