A SERIOUS CHARGE.
Tue Patriot charges that “Tue Examiner is neither generous nor just to Sir Louis This is a
seriously made and well sustained. It is
Davies.” serious charge,—if good policy, as well as good manners, to render honor te whom honoris due; for honor is the delight of able men and such men ought to be encouraged to enter and remain in the public service. A newe- paper which fails to do justice and to be generous to the public men of the country is, therefore, to be contemned.
But let ua see what ground there is for the charge of injustice and lack of genero. sity as preferred by the Patriot against Tar Examiner. The Patriot seconded a suggestion that Sir Louis Davies should be accorded a public nor-partizan reception on the sole ground of Sir Louis’ eloquence, Tae Examrner ridiculed this reason, and
4 }luded tothe Patriot’s signiftcant omission of the words which give meaning go the
line “Honour to whom honour.” Fuar- ther we staied that “when Sir Louis shall have eecured the construc- tion of the Southern Railway and
the Hillsborough bridge, direct communi- cation wiih Great Britain, cold s.orage and greatly improved means of winter communication with the mainland, he will be entitled to all the honor that the grateful people of his native Province can be- stow.” Thisiathe extentof Taz Examiner’s offence. We submit that thePatriot’s charge i3 not justified. Noris Tae Examiver’s position in regard to the suggested public reception to Sir Louis in any degree paired by the fact that Parliamentary grants have been made for the ance of the public service in this Province and for certain improvements, The P. E. Island railway authorities have,for instance, been straightening the line and putting in switches for years past; and no one ever before heard a suggestion that anyone should be honored with a public reception and that account. The Patriow’s manner of promoting the proposed public non- partican reception is certainly not by any means flettering to Sir Louis Davies.

DEBT ACCUMULATION.
Ir is trnly remarked by the Montreal Star that, “No political falsehood was ever more thoroughly misleading or dangerous. ly plausible than the too common doctrine that a nation can borrow money without feeling the weight of the debt. Even if it be decided never to pay the loan back, wothing is gained ; for the interest charges must be kept up vear after year out of the tax-money of the people. To increase the debt is to increase the annual tax for interest and to decrease the possibility of reducing taxation. Ifthe farmers no longer want taxation reduced, if they are now indifferent as to whether or not it be made heavier, they can regard the aug- mentation of the public debt with equani- mity. But it is inconceivable that the men wha pay a good share of the taxes and who work hard for the money they get to pay them with, should be anything bat appalled under present industrial conditions at the prospect of having these taxes permanently imcreased.” Stil], the farmers of Prince Edward Island voted a few weeks ago for the Debt-Accumulating Peters Government.
NICKEL
THeann2uncement that the British Goy- ernment have decided toadopt nickel steel as the material for the protection of the warships to be built within the present year, has an important bearing upon Canada; for. Canada is the greatest nickel produc- ing country in the world. The London Daily Graphic, describing the new naval construction programme, says :— “The principal item is the coat of laying down four new warships of an entirely novei pattern. They are to be cruisers and
bettleshipe in am is — they will fall

| At the same time, although their arma-

NOTES AND COMMENTS
—Since this Klondyke creze began, we haven't heard half as much about “he wheel.”
—The Montreal Star aptiyremarks that “Tt is seldum that an Opposition has been
in a better condition than the present to
stand by and let the Government party quarre] among themselves, —“Welcome the coming, speed the
parting, guest!” Having sent the Empero: of Germany home in bigh good humor the Czar now stretches ont the hand of wel-
come towards the President of Franee.
President Faure left Dunkirk this after- noon on | the French = war-hi Pothaau, escorted by the Bruix end Sur- cuuf, and will arrive at Cronstadt on Mon- day, Aug 23. The first day of the French Presideat’s sojourn in Russia will be de voted to his reception at Croastadt and at Peterhof, to the exchange of official visite, a banquet atthe Peterbof Puaiace. and a gala performance at the I.aperial Theatre. The President and the Czar will start for St. Petersburg on August 24. At the Russian capital M. Faure will be welcom- ed by the municipality of St. Petersburg and will receive in audience delegations from the principal cities of the empire. Russiais perhaps lucky in having both Germany and France courting her good will,

But there’s one summer drink that d:- serves to occupy this advertisement aid to be impressed on vour memory so that vou’ll not forget to ask your grocer for it,
It’s ALLAN’S CHAMPAGNE KOLA.
In a year from now we’ll all be drinking it in preference to all other aerated or min- eral water drinks, because it’s such a pleasant drink. Not only that, but its such a whoiesome drink, its imvigorating, it cools the brains and strengthens the nerves. Its a great thing to take before breakfast, or before going to bed. It’s good when you’ve got that tired feeling ; it brightens you up.
It's the Temperance Drink of the Day
and everybody should try it. Keep it in the house to treat your friends or for family use, It costs no more than Gioger Ale, etc., and it’s far better. If your Grocer can’t supply you write the maker.
