As some of the members of that Govern- ment are in their craves, and as all the ™ promis embers of it are now moving in other and higher spheres from Wh 1) they ar keiy to returo to Prov al politics, the Patriot's sickly argument is clearly inappl cable to the cise of Mr. Peters and his friends. When Hos rememovered toa “ Meesrs. Suiivan & Co.” were “cribbed, cabine 1 and con fined” by means of a Legislative Coun w refused to pass several of their most important measures of reform, the elli <* } } P | [sland v w are su t sick Patriot’s ¢ {iv ar ent for what it ie worth, i.e. 6! One of the symptoms of the Patriot’s disorder is a lapse of memory. It does

pot even remember that which, but a short

time ego, had a prominent place in its own columns. It ventures to say that,—

“ We are not aware that any member of the Government said taxes would not be lmpored without again consuiling the P Of le at the polis.’

This is diametrically oppoxed to the statenrvent of the Hon. Mr. Peters, pub lished in the Patriot of September Il4th, 1893. We quote:

“[¢ is not necessary that I should eay

here that taxes will never be put on, be- cause they may become av absolute neces- sity; but this I do sav, that they will never be put on until you men are fully consu!t- ed and know how they are to be put on. I will tell you another thing with regard to that tax question. When I appealed last before my constituents, I said I would rot put on taxes until THE PEOPLE WERE FULLY CONSULTED ABOUT IT AT AN ELECTION, and at

that time Mr. Ferguson said he would reserve to himeelf the right to tax. I re- serve to myselfthe right to tax, but I acknowledge this fact thet I must consult

the people ot the 3rd District on the matter Ber 1 Hore THE DAY OF TAXATION IS FAR away.”

The reference in this extract to what

Mr. Peters said before the election is to the following words of Mr. Peters, spoken in 1891 :-—

“ | remember when I met the Honorable Mr. Fergueon on the hustings and sug- gested the policy we would inaugurate if we came into power; that we would have a thorough investigation and find out how the accounts stood before we said anything about taxes, andif we found we had t raise money that way IT WOULD NOT BE DOXE WITHOUT AN ELECTION.”

At the election, ae we have shown, in- stead of meeting the issue ot taxation, Mr. Peters said that he hoped “the day of taxation was far away,” and led the public to believe that it was so. To sirengthen that before would be

“ fully consulted,” and thus caused them

this idea be told the electors

taxation was imposed they to expect that they would be cousulted inp the usual constitutional manner, viz, by means of an election. It ia, therefure, useless for the Patriot to try to set-off the alleged promises which Hon. Mr. Sullivan

—Montreal Gazette: Business, by all accounts, haa greatly improved in the United States since the elsctoral success of Mr. McKinley, the protectionist. Four years ago, after the victory of Mr. Cleve- lend, the free trade tariff for revenue re- former, it became depres-ed, avd has remained depressed practically ever since. lhe moral of the situation, so far as Canada is concerned, suggests itself. No wise business man courts dull trade.

—The Robinson treaty, involving thousands of dollars to either Ontario or the Dominion, will be argued in England

next week. Blake and Irviog will repre— sent Ontario, while English consul — will represent the Dominion, although Chris- topher Robinson fought the Federal case in all the Canadian courts. In legal circles there is the profoundest astonishment at the government’s inaction aad everybody is asking why the federal interest is being neglected.

—Mail and Empire: Shortly after he got into office Mr. Laurier was inca: tious enough to say, through a Chicago news- meant to conciliate the United States, implying that the late Gov- ernment of Canada had always stroked Uncle Sam against the lay of the hair. It is not good * business ” to show too much readiness to conciliate. It causes the other party to raise his price. When Sir Richard Cartwright goes to Washington to concili ate Mr. McKinley, the latter statesman may not be pleased without a considerable sacrifice of British connection.

—Some Government papers are printing articles telling their readers that the Civil Service isa jy orfield foran energetic man toenter. They need to do something to reduce the army of job hunters which is making life uncomfortable for the new Ministers. There are said to be some fifteen hundred eatries for the next Civil examinations. The Montreal Gazette remarks that under ordinary con- ditions about twelve hundred will pase, ard about one hundred will get places. The rest will be in a position to appreciate the philosophy of their newspapers’ advice.

—The Northumberland News, which is laboring for the liberal cause on the North Shore, haa been struggling with the recent deliverances of Mr. Davies on the tariff question. After quoting Mr. Davies’ re- marke, it says:~—“ We fail to grasp the meaning of the above, but our conclusions are that if protection is the evil we liberals have claimed it to be, there should be no time lost in applying the axe to the root of the upas tree.

DISTRESS IN IRELAND,

Crops Drowned and Potatoes Kotting in the Ground,

Cable despatches state that the Irish qnestion ig coming up in an acute form, through the occurrence of an Irish famine. The correspondent of the Manchester Guar- lian, One Of the most trustworthy and least sensational papers in England,declares that no snch appalling prospect has’ pre— sented iteelf during the present generation. uther reports show that the prolonged and coutinuons rains of the autumn have drowned the crops from north to souths The rich lower lands have been flooded for weeks at a time when the harvest ought to have been proceeding. Stocked corn and hay stacks have been a and pota- toes are rotting in the fields. In the poorer hill lands the emall farmer and cotter population are again face to face with one of those failures of the potato crop which has too often brought about the utter des- titution of the peasants.

THE PROVINCIAL SITUATION.

Letter From Mr. W, 8, Stewart, Q. C.

Sin,—That the present government party of this province stands convicted before the people of extravagance, incapacity and broken promises all reasonable men must admit. That it is a thoroughly discredited party few willdeny. In fact so bad is its record and so disappointing 18 ite work to ity former friends and well wishers that no serious attempt is made either in the press or out of it to defend it. It has failed, miserably failed in everything it undertook. It was to stop deficits; it mul- tuplied them two-fold. Itwas to get us out of debt; it increased the debt three- fold. Its policy was no taxation and with it euch a great reduction in the cost of the administration of the affairs of the province as would make taxation nnneces— sary, it has not Only taxed the peupse in every imaginable form,but greatly increased inplace of diminished the expenditure. Wich such a record, it is scarcely possible that the people will feel inclined to give a new lease of power toa party thus dis- honored and obnoxious,

There has been a reason advanced, and only one so far as I can see, why this pariy should be given a renewal of coofi~ fence, and it ig thatthe Liberal party ts in power at Otiawa and tbe province can get more from the Federal government through its friends here than its enemies! This 1s deliberately put forward as a suffizent yround by vo Jess an authority than the editor of the Patriot, And so it seems we are to be ruled from Ottawa, by favor and not by right. I thought the days of this kind of treatment had for ever disappeared with the fall of the Tory Federal govern- ment and that the dawn of a new political rule had arisen with the advent to power of the pure and unbiased spirits composing the Laurier Government !

But can our people be duped by any such ridiculous pretension? I think they are two wide-awake for that, and are not to be caught a second time by any such chaff. If the Dominion Government feels inclined to give an increased subsidy to cur Prov- ince it will come not to us alone, but be- cause of a general increase to all the Prov- inces based on population; and whether we have a grit Local Government bere or one of another complexion will not affect the matter one iota. We are too small a por- tion of Canada for our Local Government to bave any appreciable influence in decid ing the question of an increase of subsidy, because that question affects the whole of Cunads. Depend upon it, Quebec which i* groaning under an enormous Provincial debt, 18 not going to permit little Prince Kdward Island to get any increase of sub- sdy that will not give her a corresponding increase. The other Provinces are as fully alive to this quest’on as ours. This, then, like every other question, can be attended to by a government that our people can have confidence in, whatever be its political stripe. The people of the rest of Canada find it better to keep Dominion and Local politics apart, and it will be a safe course for us te follow their example.

To keep the present party in power for four or _ five yeare longer, to double the debt and fiabil-

ities of the Province would be running a great risk indeed- Our people will take warning in time from what has happened not only to their own but the other Cana- dian Provinces in debt building They will look to Nova Scotia, which in 1882 had a debt of only $98,718, to find that its debt increased to $3,346,899 in 1895; to New Brunswick, to see an increase in the same pericd of about $1,500,000 ; to Que- bec to find an increase of over $9,000,000, — ander the Mercier Administration; and they will remember that these large addi- tions to the debts of these Provinces were made by men of like character with those who rule ours—men of loud professions aod poor, wretchedly poor, performance ; and, remembering, they will decide to rid themselves once and forever from the rule of such men.

A word with the editor of the Patriot. His defence ot the Government has really teen co weak as to make it unnecessary for me to say much, if anything, in reply. Nor is he to be blamed for this, because the cause he was called upon to champion was xo bad that a successful defence was simply impossible,

On the item of printing and stationery he complains because 1 took the years 1838 and 1889 of the Sullivan Govern- ment to compare them with the years 1894 and 1895 of our present rulers. I might perhaps have taken avy two of the other years of that government. I do not know that the result would have been much differeat. One reason I took 1888-89 was because in those years there was no gener- al election nor was there in 1894-95. —It would be manifestly unfair to take the year 1890 for the reason that in that year there was paid the printing connected with a general election, the consolidated statutes volume, and a large amount for printing in connection with the Land Office investigation.

His complaint that a portion of the printing account for 1889 was carried for- ward to 1890 would apply I imagine to other years as well; and there is not: the least doubt but that some of the printing done in 1895 will be paid for in 1896. The editor had better “give us something new,” himeelf.

It may be true, as the Patriot alleges, that the travelling expenses of the engi- neer for the years 1886, 1887, 1888 and 1889 were charged in the books of the Pablic Works office against the several bridges inspected. I went by the Pubiic Accoun:s and my figures as taken there-

from are correct. I certainly was not in a position to know the contents of the private books kept in the

office of the Commissioner of Public

Works. W.S. Srewarr. Ch'‘town, Nov. llth, 796.

The News says :—‘“‘Not since the fall of Richmond have patriotic Americans had euch cause for rejoicing as they feel to-day. Tnen the intregity of the Union was secvred. Now its honor is preserved.”

Mr. Chauncey M. Depew says that the most pleasing feature of the election of Mr. McKinley is the demoustration of the fact that the voters of the United States are able to understand a complicated monetary question, and are honest in their decision.

The New York Times says :—“The end of the delusion has been reached, and now to business. We have had three years of silver panic and business depression. We have given three months to Bryan. Cap- ital has been frightened, enterprise be- numbed, industry paralyzed. Now that we have utterly annihilated Bryan and 16 to 1, let everybody pluck up courage and get to work.”

Mr. Greenway has gone out of town. Whether or not the echool question Was seitled betore his departure is still a matier ot doubt. The best informed people are inchned to think it was. Hon. Mr. Prendergast, Liberal, who was consulted during the conference before Mr. Tarte and Greenway’s ministers, to-day told your correspondent that the matter was all settled. Asked as tothe nature of the settlement he declined to divulge that part. He added, however: ‘Mr, Greenway has vielded sufficiently to satisiy me. His terms way notsatisfy Archbishop Lan- gevin, who wants too much. — It _ is better fur us to accept a little at first, and later on we can ask for more. I certainly shall advise my compatriots to accept Mr, Greenway’s terms.”” From another source itis learned that Mr. Greenway simply gave Mr. Laurier what he offered the Dominion Commissioners last spring. The terms of the settlement are expected to-morrow.
