kind of consistency as Mr. Farquharson
has displayed, actually turned around and |
yoted for the Prohibitory bill of this year, —and against the inclusion of the clube, without which prohibition in Charlotte town must, of neceseity, be a fraud and a sham !
It is to be noted that, in its effort to re- lieve Mr. Reid from the bieme of epeak- ing in favor of the licence law of last year, The Guardian says :--
‘© We are reliably informed and believe | that w Jarge part of the Patriot’s so-called | report of Mr Reid was not uttered by
him inthe Eou«e, but was mere printer’s /copy conjured up trom we know not where | to entirely Change the complexion of tha | speech in question.”
This is a grave charge to bring against
a newspaper, and the public will wait with interest Tne Patriot’s reply.to it. Is
it possible that the organ of the Pinesu
| Party reported Mr. Reid to have said thet |
‘which he did not say or is The Guardian
merely trying to discredit its party
