SISMARCK’S BIRTHDAY.-
We are all more or less imbued with the spirit of hero-worship. In the old countries this spirit is apparently more active than in the new. The reason may ve that the people have learned, by exper- ience, to appreciate the inestimable value of great mer. Intellectual not usually the most highly esteemed. The people can only judge of a great man by his great acts in arms or statesmanship, or in other positions in which power is displayed and apprehended.

Bismarck was particu- larly fortunate in this respect. He was in & position to do great acts for his ceuntry, and he did them. His countrymen show- ed their appreciation yesterday upon the celebration of his eightieth birthday. The Emperor presented him with a golden sword. The aristocracy, the soldiery and the peasants alike paid him the tribute of respect and devotion. The Grand Old Man of the Fatherland was made happy.

[LBTTERS 10 THE EDITOR
OUTHERN RAILWAY IBLE LETTER,
A FORC-
Sir.—Now that the date of the Do:nin- on election is postponed, there is danger that our re presentative s and the press nay
| , : | lose sight of the need of the people of Bel-
no} fast and Murray Harbor of a branch rail-
way. Weof Belfast and Murray Harbor have slept on our rights for 24 years, and although that ‘act shows us tobe a soft, good-natured lot, thy re is a limit to pat- rence, and the time has come, and now is, for us to insist on our rights. We want simple justice aud no more. Look at the facta. The Conservative Government of P. E. Island in 1871 passed an act for the eonstruction of a railroad from Alberton to Georgetown. The act provided that after the construction of the main line, the road should be continued to Souris and Tig- nish At an election held in Belfast shortly after the passing of this act, the ery was “Stop the railroad”. The peeple of Belfast were silly enough to be persuaded to vote out the Hon. James Duncan, who supported the railroad, and return his op t,a professed opponent of the rail
pone ni, ; road. The Government passed into the hands of the Liberals. Of course they iropped the railroad ? Not at all. At
the very earliest moment they repealed the part of the Railroad Act, 1871, which pro- hibited the building of the Tignish ard Souris branches until after the comple- tion of the main line, and enabled them- selves by act of Assembly to entir into a contract for the immediate construction of the branches. The Belfast people found they were fooled—or rather had nade fools of themselves; but they were ast::red they would be given ap “equivalent.” The “equivalent” was a phrase which never representatives
materialized. If our know anything of it, we Oo not. The railroad was, of course, built at
the expense of the people — of all the peo- ple of P. E. Island—and was paid for by the whole Island, including Belfast and Murray Harbor. It would be a very singu- lar thing if the representatives of Belfast and Murray Harbor in 1871 would burden their constituents with building branches to Tignish and Souris without considering the large and populeus southern section which could not possibly be benefitted by these lines. The assembly of 1871 did not at all forget this. The original act contem- plating the further extension of the railway contains the following clause, designed, undoubtedly, for the more immediate as- surance of the people of Belfast and Mur- ray Harbor:
“Sec VI. After the said line and the ex- tension herein mentioned shall have been so completed, the railway shall be extend- ed to such places as shall be approved of by both Houses of the Legislature and shall be designated by an act of this Island, or by resolutions entered upon their Jour- nals.”
I venture to say that no other body of people than the good natured, inert High- landers of Belfast,would have kept quiet so long without insisting on the fulfilment of the entire compact contained in the origin al Railway Act; and it is little to the credit of our representatives in the Legislatare and Commons for the last 20 years that our rights were not long ago advocated strenuously and persistently. However, the people are as much to blame as our representatives. We have paid our share for giving railroad accommodation to the people of Tignish, Alberton, Souris, Georgetown and St. Peter’s Bay, for 24 years, and have been content meanwhile to do our journeys to the capital over a bad road and across a dear, slow, and incon- venient ferry, The time has fully arrived tor us to assert our right, and to insist that our public men do, unequivocally, declare themselves and say who are for us and who are against us.
But, admitting our right to the railroad, where is the money with which to build it?. The answer to this question is easy. Both of our political parties know that the Dominion now owes us as our share of over expenditure on Railroads and Cenals since confederation, a sum fully three times the cost of the proposed rail- way, and we must insist that sufficient of that sum be spent—in fact must be spent —in building the Southern Railway, and for no other purpose. I wish the voters of Belfast and Murray Harbor would lay hold of and remember the fact, that both parties, Liberal and Conservative, main- tain, and maintain rightly, that the Dominion to-day owes us between two and three million dollars as our share of Dominion over expenditure on Railways and Canals in Canada, outside of P. E. Island. Both parties have pressed and are pressing for payment of this money Indeed $500,000 of it has already been acknowledged by the Dominion Govern- ment and has been secured to the people of P. E. Island. If the rights of Belfast and Murray Har bor had been properly looked after by our own representatives, Or if we ourselves had been alive to our interests, that half a mil- lion of dollars should have been devoted to or reserved for building the Belfast Rail- way. Letthat pass. Are we to stand by and see the rest of this money put to other purposes than building the Railway to which we are entitled? Is this large sum said to be due us from Canada, a myth? By a Minute of Council of the present Gov- ernment of P. E. Island, dated 22nd. Feb. 1893, and submitted to the Government of Canada, it is stated that the expenciture over and above the amount estimated at the time of Confederation was ;
On railways and subsidies to iis centnceeneasboceien $ 69,873,679 Since,that date.....---.. +0006 20,906,303 Oe Camels... .ccccecdccceccessoves 11,612,300 IB. ic cc odaedantsnsianners 102,592,382
These figures we may assume were not rashly or groundlessly put forward by our Executive Council. Assuming them to be approximately correct and taking our population as one-fortieth of the whole Dominion, our share of this sum would be $2,559,807. I put it to the con- science of every adult person in P. E, Island whether it is not just and right that a sufficient sum of this money should be set aside for giving us of Belfast and Mur- ray Harbor the same railway accommoda- tion that we contributed for and helped to give to the rest of our fellow colonists ? But some people are such fanatics to party that they may suspect the correctness of the figures of the Minute of Council re- ferred to. Well, let us take the Conserva- tive version of this matter. -In an elabor- ate speech made by Senator Ferguson in the Senate in June last, he shows, in . fact he proves, that the sum due P. E. Island for this over-expenditure from the Domin- ion is $2,171,318--stili a sufficient sum, you see, to build this branch railway, to
ay off the whole debt of the province and cia handsome surplus besides.
the people of Belfast and Murray Harbor have a just right to a Branch Railway. In fact the promise of this Railway extension is contained the original Railway Act, and in pressing their claim they are fairly en- titled to the assistance and co-operation of their fellow colonists. The Public Ac- counts show that our Province has.not re- ceived from the Dominion its fair share of
A plain statement of the facts shows that ;

then if justice is done to this Island in this respect, there is no lack of funds where- with to build this road; and yet when we waken up to a sense of our rights we are met. if pot with direct opposition, at least with apathy and a simpering laugh from persons upon whose help we thought we could rely with confidence. Iam sorry to say that among the persons who do not seem disposed to exert themselves in our cause we must include our own members both in the Local Legislature and in the House of Commons at Ottawa. We have seen that the Railway Act prevides that the Railway shall be extended to such other placesasshall beapproved by the Legislature as by resolution entered in the minutes of their journal. Did Mr. Forbes or Mr. McDonald, Mr. McKinnon or Mr. Aitken, members for Belfast and Murray Harbor, ever propose such a resolution, or ask the Legislature to urge on the Dominion Gov- ernment the justice of expending a portion of the money admittedly due in building the branch railway in question? Did Mr. Davies or Mr. Welsh; or Mr. McDonald or Mr. McLean, our members at Ottawa, ever propose to Parliament that a part of the large sums voted by Parliament for public works should be spent in building the short, cheap, narrow guage railway required by their constituents ? In justice to these respected gentlemen, it must be admitted that their constituents have not hitherto been as active as we should have been inasserting our rights; and the apathy of our neighbors is partially accounted for on the principle of the saying, “Like mas- ter, like servant.” At the present, how- ever, the indications are that the servants are greater laggards than their masters. As the construction of the branch railway is of far greater importance to the people of Murray Harbor and Belfast than any other public question that can be submit ted for their consideration, I must ask you for space for the further discussion of the subject.

CONCERY AT BEACONSFIELD,
Tue spacious drawing room and hall of Beaconsfield were very kindly given up last evening, by Mr. and Miss Cundal!, to the purpose of a concert in aid of the P. E. Island Hospita!. Of course the audience was as large as possible; and the lady ushers, illustrating by their attire the old maxim that “beauty is best plain set,” had more than they could do to find room and seats for all. Mr. L. L. Beer presided. The programme, which, upon the whole, was exceedingly well rendered, was appro- priately opened by the beautifal overture to the Barber of Seville, exquisitely played by Mrs. W. A. Weeks, Jr, and Miss Mary Palmer. This was followed by a quartette from Haydn, by Mrs. J. A. Longworth, Miss Barrett, the Rev. Mr. Hamlyn and Mr. H. James Palmer, the parts of which
were well taken, though the effect of the whole would have been heightened by orchestral ac-
companiment. Miss McLean’s recitation of a poetic gem by Tennyson was, it is needless to say, almost faultlessly rendered, and Mrs. G. W. Hodgson’s_ vocal solo was given with sweetness and power. Miss Mary Large’s ability as a pianist was well displayed in her selections from Schubert and Lange, and, though the step was from the sublime to the ridiculous, the lively vocal quartette by Messrs. T. Leigh, J. Owen, F. Haszard and E. Earle was en- thusiastically encored and responded to with “My Dame has a Lame Tame Crane.” Miss Stentiford’s recitation was clearly and pewerfully given, and Miss Farquharson’s solo from Schubert sweetly sung. One of the finest things of the evenining, La Ci Darem, by Mozart, was then sung by Miss Annie Hyndman and Mr. Fred Has- zard,the voices blending harmoniously and the interpretation being unusually good. The duet was heartily encored. Mr. Vinnicombe’s violin solo was also a gem, the brilliance of which was appreciated by the audience and an encore demanded. Mr. F. H. Heartz proved his abilityas a vocalist in “Thy Sentinel Am I.” Mr. Heartz possesses a bass voice of power and promise—one worthy of careful cul- tivation. A vocal quartette and God Save the Queen brought the entertainment to a close.
