Ward Five.
Sennen ent
}
To the Editor of the Examiner.
Sir,—Now that we are on the eve of a Council Election, it would be well to en- quire what has Mr. Thos. A. McLean, dur- ing che two years that he has been a mem- ber of the City Council, effected for Ward Five !
Enston Sireet, especially that part of it immediately in front of Mr.George Peake’s, was for years almost inmpassable—every year since the City was first incorporated something additional had to be performed on this obstinate piece of road, in order to render it fit for carriages at al]. Notwith- standing the time and labor thus expended, no good results were reached, until Mr. McLean had it macadamized and brought to its present very desirable condition.
‘* Black Sam’s Bridge;” as it is commonty termed, was im the same deplorable state last summer. That was finished in-a man- ner creditable to any city.
He had 1,400 feet of sidewalk laid on the | street leading up to ‘‘ Fiizgerald town.” | On ‘‘ Spring Park Road” there is a marked improvement The road is raised and wel rounded, and the ‘ drainage’ rendered effective and complete. New bridges were built all the way along from Bright n Road , to Mr. Edward Bayfield’s residence, the drains were well opened and good platforms put down. Grafton Street, which was once almost as bad as Euston, is now one of the finest in the city. Prince Street, eighteen months ago, was in a worse condition than @ marsh road to a ‘country mill;” but, by labor and attention, we have the street leading to the Ferry Wharf raised and made as level as Queen Square, Fifteen hundred feet of platform, reaching from Terlizzick’s corner to Government Bridge, was put down. The bridge at Boyle's Tan- nery was well repaired and a neat, durable new rail added.
This is only a casual account of some of the items which were aceidentally brought te yeur correspondent’s notice; but even from the mention of these may be gleaned the truth of the statemeht—that Ward Five can get no better representative than Thomas A. McLean.
When we consider the very limited means placed at his disposal, we cannot refrain from exprersirg surprise at what Mr. Mc- Lean bas accomplished, as well as satisfac- tion with the judicious manner in which the money was expended.
Men like hy, McLean and Crabbe,
EY OY BYU OU Boe, wer EB Jen t wee y pe er ewpyy above all other times, the citizens can ill afford te spare them. They, together with the undivided attention, and hearty co- operation of our present City Surveyor have done much to make the streets, crossings, platforms and sidewalks of Charlottetown decent and respectable. It would be ungenerous as well as unjust in the extreme, to withdraw your support from the men who sacrificed their time, talents, and business to the welfare of the city—and with such goad results. Ingrati- tude is by no means the leading error of Charlottetown, and I am confident that on election day the men who have guarded your interests-so faithfuily in the past, will be returned to a position from which they can assist you in the future.
Yours, etc., An Execror or Warp Five,

A Free City.
To the Editor of the Examiner.
Sirn,—I was yesterday plodding my way’ along the sidewalk of one of ovr principal streets, atone time passing easily over a cleared pathway, at another slipping and plunging through almost urbroken snow, again warily stepping along the narrowest possible path, or, in passing anyone [ met, getting into the deep snow. As I went along,| was meditating on the great advan- tages we enjoy in living ina FREE City where each one does what is right in his own eyes, cleaning away the snow from his frontage if he likes, or if he does not like, leaving it as a proof of his independence. I thought also what a noble sight it was to see ho we all worked together in securing this freedom. How City Councillors made_as few regulations for the safety and tidiness (to say nothing of cleanliness) of our streets as possible—while our City Magistrate's and Police do so little to enforce the few that are made At first | doubted whether it was just to award any credit to the Magistrates and Police, as perhaps they compelled obedience to the few laws there are; but as 1 have seen uncleaned frontages in the very heart of the city, and remembered that this winter I have several times been nearly ron over by sleighs with- out bells, I saw that they too are nobly negligent, and must receive as much praise as the others. Then all of us may claim to our credit that we keep up this state of things by our full approval of it. As I thought further, I saw still more to admire. There is in our town a great many proper- ties (some vacant) with pretty extensive frontages owned by rich men, and there are among us in winter a good many poor men, out of employment who would gladly work at cleaning away this snow. In cities less free and enlightened than ours, these rich men would have to employ the poor laborers in cleaning the snow to the great con- venience of the whole public. Bunt who would sacrifice freedom to convenience | While thus meditating I saw comi: g down the middle of the street a city snow plough drawn by two stout horses. This thought

both of these things were done, it would be easier to walk after a snow storm, and still , all our city officials might be just as they are now: we should be as free as éver.

Ward 3 Canvass.
To the Editor of ‘the Examiner.
Sir, —In your-issue of yesterday’is a letter signed ‘‘ A Tenant.of Ward 3,” where- in most untruthful charges is made againet Mr. Campbell, one of the condidetes for Ward3 I waspresent at the meeting lield in the Magistrate's Court Room, and can testify that Mr. Campbell made ‘se of ne such langnage as is attributed-to him by this correspondent. What he did say was that ‘‘two-thirds of the tenants found it hard enough to pay their rents and purchase spring water, without being saddled with a further charge of taxation for water works.” So far as regards the conelbding remarks of this ‘* Tenant,” they are largely imaccur- ate. It is well known that Mr. Campbell), built his house, and improved his premises. before ever he obtained a license to engage in a business which was then perfectly legitimate. Were Mr. Campbell . now engaged in the same business, his influence would be largely sought after by. opporing parties, and his occupation .would not be ridiculed, But now that the sanction. of the law has been withdrawn from the trade, Mr. Campbell is to be insulted for his former connection with it, by some obscure individual, who thinks that he will gain the popular ear by aclopting the name of a. “Tenant.” It is no. disgrace to be a “*tenant,” I am one myself, but I am.

Tov the Editor of the Examiner.’
Siz,—Mr. Murphy has replied to my ° query, and states that although opposed . to the levying of the personal property tax, and peeing the real estate tax on the . tenants, if Ward 2 elects Mr. Douse it will be fair to assume, that the electors. ; of Ward 2 are in favor of these modes of: | taxation. as
Mr. Murphy would, therefore, be obliged — to vote as the Ward dictates,
Mr. Douse not replying to my letter, and as silencé gives assent, Mr. Douse will, no doubt, if elected, intreduce a by-law to tax personal property, also a resojution to ask the Legislature to place the tax back — again on the tenants, at eae As I am in favor of the’ oll mode of ~ BUSHINGS RE IOE” iehse Mesos ptt * and lawyers and others having large incomes, should contribute to. the city, I , will support Mr. Doyse in Ward 2, and 1’ have no doubt that he will’ secure his - election. ie : +8

The enterlainment consisted of instrumental music, songs, readings, reci- tations, ahd a popular drama entitled the. “Last Loaf.” That this Club is very popular with the public, was seen by the* immense audience which greeted them when the cuitain rose. The hali was densly® packed, and a large number from they nig! boring settlements could net gain admittance. The Club has been requested to repeat the drama which they intend doing atan early day when arrangements will be- made to accommodate parties who come from a distance, so that they will not’ have to go away disappointed.
