—The Toronto Globe remarks that “so far as Canada is concerned, each reverse | tut adde to the satisfaction that is felt that a thousand of our sons are in Soutk Africa, standing shoulder to shoulder in what has indubitably become the cause of the empire.

—In the course of an article on the result of the elections in Belfast and Murray Harbour The Telegram of Winaipeg says truly that, “‘ These two constituencies of Priace Edward Island bave not only co n-~ demned the Farquharson Government for ite extravagance and neglect of the public intercst ; they have aleo entered a protest against the course of the Liberal govern- meut at Ottawa. Sir Louis Davies bears the same relationship to the Provincial Liberal Government in Prince Edward Is- land, a3 Mr. Sifton has borne to tne Pro- vincia! Liberal Government in Manitoba. The defeat of the Government candidates in Prince Edward Island is almost as severe ;a blow toSir Louis Davies’ pres- tige, as was the damage Mr. Sifton’s repu- tation sustained by the yerdict of the peo- ple of Manitoba at the provincial elections yesterday week. Sir Louis Davies is one of the promineat apostles of the new Lib- eralism. He enjoya the unenyiable dis tinction of being the princi;2] associate of Messrs Tarte, Sifton and Biair in forcing upon the Liberal party the cynically per- fidious policy pursued by the Laurier Government, in defiance of the traditions of the true Liberalism and in opposition to the protests of all honest Liberals. It 1s a great encouragement to Conservatives in the West, as indeed it must be to Coasers yatives in al! Canada, to know that the far East ie at one with the Weetin rising in revolt against the evil rule which is being forced upon the country by the Laurier Fovernment. It betokena that, at the next Federa! elections, the Laurier Govern- ; ment will be swept out of existence by aa indignant people, and once more the des tinvies of Canada will be confided to the sufe guidance of a Conservative administra~ tion.

was flashed aloug the line that the High- landers under the veteran G-neral McLean completely routed the enemy, who retreat- ed in dismay aud confusion, leaving many wounded and some sixty missing. It would be useless to try t» describe the joy cf the brave little band at Fort Word.

Misses Ada, Emma and Biith Beers went tu Boston last week.

Mr, Robert Young, Suffolk, spent a few days this week with bis Earnscliffe friends.

Mr. Wm. Nelson, China Point, sold his large crop, stock and farming utensils on the llth iuet., aod intends removing to Charlot etown in the couree of a few weeks.

Our Good Tempiar Lodge is taking a rest just pow—it certainly needa a rest— and a long one—afier several of its mein- bers voung for the License Act on the 13th.

The ‘Davies threat’ did not work worth a cent; and, Mr. Editor, we will smash the party whose leader would dare insult us British freemen by attempting to drive us with & threat, as though we were eerfs. Sir, it was a great viciory; and Belfast will probably soon have the proud satis- faction of reeing the cffice of Premier and Attorney Genera! of this province filied by one ot her moet brilliant and talented sons —a gentleman who has won the respect, esteem and edmiration of all—A. A. Mc-~ Lean, Esq.

We alvo heartily congratulate Tare Ex. AMINER On’the excellent work it did in the recent campaigo. Like Mr. McLean, this jouroal has won fresh lauvels for its fair and honorable metheds ot conducting a campaign, and dealing with even its bitter est opponents,

In striking contrast with a member of Parliament who takes four hours to de- liver a speech, is the case where it recently teok one of our boys four hours to say two words. ‘nis young man was partiog with bis sweetheart, and it took him from 10 o’clock p. m. till2 a.m., to bid her ‘good bye.’ And now we wautto know,— if it took our friend four hours to say two words, how mavy days will it take him to ‘pop the question *?
