The Fishing Bounty. letter, published in shows that the people

A vigoRroUs another column, have a right appreciation of the tendency of Dr. Melntyre’s remarks ia the House of Commons to excite suspicion against applicants for the fishing bounty, and to delay the payment of the bounty.

As to the diderence in the bounty

} tid last calculation was made in 1882 to allow

each boat fisherman $2.50, the Depart- |

ment of Fisheries found it was too little, ind doubled it,—making it $5. But

0 data was fixed for receiving claims,

ich a number was received that $27,000 was paid in excess of the $150,000, the amount voted each year. That sum of $27,000 was taken off the IS83 vote, and, of course, the allow- avee this year to the fishermen is small er than last year. Still they get the $500,000 in two years; and pbext year, again the cheques will be all right, as there will be no $27,000 to deduct.

This explanation will, we are sure, satisfy the minds of our fishermen who have felt aggrieved because the Bounty because their

which 1s

was uot paid sooner, and

respective amounts are smaller than those paid last vear Itshould be remembered that if the

had their way. the Bounty would not be paid at all.

The Sugar Question—Another Mis- representation Met.

(ne Patriot is at its old tricks again

misrepresenting facts and endeavoring to |

false impression as regards prices of sugar under the National Policy.. We quote from its columns in its issue of Wednesday :

‘* Market reports from Barbadwes, dated 20th July, 1884, state that sugar has gone down there to two and one quarter cents (2|) per pound wholesale. This is a good stiygar, and could be retailed here at about four cents and a quarter (4}) per pound, were it not for the duty. Why should the people of P. E. Island be compelled to pay six or seven cents a pound for sugar not equal to the Barbadoes sugar? It may suit Sir John McDonald’s friends—the refiners

but it does not suit the people of P. E. Island; and we trust the electors of Queen’s County will say so by voting for Welsh on the 19th.”

create a

The following are the actual facts. Raw sugar recently advanced in Barbadoes, from $2.25 per 100 Ibs, to $2.40 and $2.50 per 100 lbs. The quotations are for low grades used altogether for refin- ing, and are not suitable for grocery re- tailing purposes. Under the McKenzie tariff, that grade of sugar could not be sold here wholesale, under $5.45 per 100 lbs; while under the present tariff, it could be sold at $5.254 per 100 Ibs. If sugars were absolutely free from duty, (as Sir John’s government has made tea) the grade referred to could be sold here wholsale, at $4.00'per 100 Ibs. The

‘atriot’'s arguments, therefore, are self- explosive—like all its misrepresentations —and the impression, attempted to be conveyed by its article, that ifthe Grits get control of the Govern- ment such sugars could be retailed here at 44 cents is simply a fraud of the worst kind. Every intelligent man understands that neither Blake, Davies, or even Mr. Welsh (with all his ‘oasted influence) could not run a Government without iinposing a tariff on sugar; and no one kuows this better than the editor of the

‘atriot—his inferences to the contrary notwithstanding

Reciprocity.

ee

‘Te Moncton Times, commenting on the issues in the contest in this County, says respecting Reciprocity :—

‘‘The Canadian people and the **Tory Government’ are prepared to negotiate for reciprocity on an equitable basis. If the Americans will admit Canadian lumber,and coal, and fish, and the products of the farm free of duty, the Canadians will return the compliment in respect to such similar articles as the United States desire to sell them The Grit policy was to give the people of the United States free access to our markets, while Canadian products were met with duties that were almost pro- hibitory. That was jag-handled recipro- city, and we greatly mistake the temper and the spirit of the Canadian people if any considerable number of them desire a return to that condition of things. The electors of Queen’s, Prince Edward Island, will show by the election of _Dr. Jenkins that, while they desire reciprocity, they do not intend to sacrifice their patriotism or their national independence to get it — that

they can » wi : ; . : ; ey can live without it until suchtime as | theatres emptier for some time past, than

the Amer

ican people are prepared to meet them uy.

n a basis of equality-—that they do

hot intend to hamble th mselves, by mak- ing concessions that have not been asked for

t lope iio. no return can reasonably be expected. It is clear, that if we get reci-

procisy at all, we must have something to vtler in '@-arn for the removal of duties on the other side of the line. Return to the old tariff, and we will have nothing to offer.”

THE CAMPAIGN. The Meeting at Pisquid East.

| A Lasagand influential meeting was held

|in this locality last night. The Liberal- | Conservatves were largely in the majority. | The speakers were:~-Hon. Neil McLeod,

| Donald A. MeDonald, Esq., John 8. Me- Donald, Esq., Henry Douglas and Henry Mooney. The best of order prevailed. The Grit argument was very weak. Donald A. McDonald tried to convinee the people that the Nihilist movement in Russia, was ow- ing to the protection. The e’ectors were too intelligent to listen to such stuff. The chairman, Alexander McDonald, Esq., pre- sided over the meeting ably, and the meet- ing closed with a vote of thanks tu the chairman, and three rousing cheers for Dr. Jenkins, the Liberal-Conservative candi- | date. Three cheers were also proposed by | Donald A. McDonald, for Mr. Welsh, but the response was weak.

Meeting at Clifton. A very large and influential meeting was | held at Clifton last evening. The Liberal- | Conservative speakers were well sustained. Gentlemen residing in the County say that |the Liberal’Conservative cause is gaining

The question is whetherin the event of future negotiation, the im- position of a tax on grain would operate in ourfavor. Fancy a Com-

Government, and sanctioned by the | British Government, sent to Wash- ington to negotiate a treaty of Re- | ciprocity. The question might be | asked what he desired, he replies: | ‘I wish to havea free market in the United States for the products of our forest, fields and mines,’’ |Then the United States Commis- sioner might ask: ‘‘and what will you give us in return?’ Our repre- | sentative replies: ‘The free use of ourmarkets for similar products of ourcountry,” Theastute American would naturally say: “We have that already. Idonotseethatyou offer us anything.’ We must re- member we should have something to offer when we attempt to open up anew the Reciprocity Treaty.— WILLIAM PATERSON, M. P. conning alias, thE

The Cholera Scare.

One curious effect of the cholera scare in France, has been a marked diminution of drunkenness in Paris. During the month of June, the average number of persons daily taken up by the police for being ‘‘drunk and incapable” was 170. On the first of July it declined to 104, and on the 12th, it had fallen as low as 58—the smallest number on record since the police regulations on the subject of street drunk- enness have come into force. The day of the National fete, 200 such cases were re- ported; but the number was 500 in 1883
