VALUAILE PUBLICITY

P`.-loo.. nllwuru uluuu has .luring

absorb all the surplus we can pro-

dncc. Our cattle have won an en-

viable place at the Royal Winter Fair in Toronto and 0l1l` BllV€"

black foxes have, at the same show. gg usual, proved lllerlselves the

beet of their killd ill America.

As ll result of this Prince Edward

island is on the map and is known

throughout the continent as a re-

liable producer in at least thesel

three lines, dairy cattle. seed pot- atoes and silver black fo.tes. The

list is not large but it is very lm-

portant and it is a beginning. ` lt would be won worth wllno sou-

ing to it some other products in which we excel,such as butter null

cheese, eggs and poultry which

now go into the market without

any distinctive marking to show

that they are a Prince Edward ls-

lvand product. in a recellt issue we referred to the fact that Prince

Edward island eggs, thanks to the

improvement effected hy the Egg*

Circles, bring a cent or two more

among the dealers who handle

them in our own Canadian mar-

kets than eggs produced elsewhere.

and that even in the United States.

dealers paid norc for them. be-

fore the imposition of the Ford-

ney tariff than they 'dill for thc ns-

tive product. Yct this is not suf-

ficient. The superiority ol' these

eggs is knowll only to the trade.

Every commodity that leaves the

province and that can be markcd

should carry with it a Prince Ed-

ward island trade mark or a label

oi' some kind to -designate its or-

igin. in this way customers all

over Canada would learn to ask for

the Prince -Edward Island 'product and thus increase our sales.

To the stock breeders who cap

lured the prizes at the Royal Will-

ter Fair our province is deeply in- debted, lt is no small matter to

lake a lu-_rd ol’ valuable cuill-.l or

silver black foxes abroad in win-

ter. it incurs a heavy risk anrl the man who does it to face the hard-

est competition that the continent

can put up deserves the gratitude

of his fellow stock breeders; it is

a big thing to win prizes in such a

colnpotition as that in Toronto and

while the winning 'brings its corn-

ponsation in reputation and in-

creased value of the animals and the herds or pens from which they

come, the risk and possibility of loss are -none the less. Alil honour

to the .men who brought this dis-

tinction and this valuable public-

ity to their native province. '

str,-i have read with interest

“Student's" letter and your cditori al on the same subject. These artl cies strike the right note and they indicate the way lo the proper sol utiou of our transportation difficul ties. The only criticism l have to of fer is that these articles do not sc quite far enough. We find bolll Nova Scotia and New BrutlSWlClK- as well as Prince Edward Island. claiming that Canada is not carry ing out its pre-Confederation prom ises.- Where, then are our Federal Representatives in the Commons and the Senate? So far as the Rriev ences of the Maritime Provinces are concerned. they represent Can- ada. Their duty is to see that Can ads -implements its promises: thc burden does not solely fall on the Provincial Government. Primarily the duty of fulfillment is on Can- ada, and in the application of the remedy our Federal Representin- tives should not remain quiescent but should speak up or be under stood to concur in the attitude of Canada in refusing us our just rights under the Confederation contract.

Let light be thrown on the sub-

ject tlntil all concerned can see the remedy and apply it.

I am. Sir.

"Observer"

---oo>~i- Our Railway Transport

Sir.-l think I have fully estab-

lished the position that the cause ot all the annoyance, dissatlsfnc t.ion and courplaint by tourists and others coming- to the Province is not in the want of pullman and parlor cars, not because the passen- ger couches are not carried over ill the steamer. nor yet because rl second car ferry steamer is not in commission, -but solely from the slowness of andthe time needlessly wasted by the railway train hands at Sackvllle. Tormcntine, Borden. Emerald, and in fact all the wlty from Sackville to Charlottetown. it is a far-fetched idea that tht- carrlago ol passenger coaches' ill the steamer will lessen thc delay or effect the least improvement. The time required for the transfer of passengers in -hut lt very few minutes wllereus ll delay of from hall' un hour to an hollr at Borden and Tormentino is not an uncom- mon occurrcnce. Besides it must be somewhat of a relief to the passengers wearied with long and irritating delays to have such an opportunity as the transfer tlffol-dsl to stretch their lim-bs relieving as` it -must thc monotony of such a journey..

On October 26th lust the stcnlrl-

cr safely docked at .Borden nt eleven 11. nl., having among others Mrs. Cox, a passenger front llali- fax. orl board hastenng to reach, the bedside of her dying son in thei Charlottetown llospital. With un- explained delays all along the road the train did not reach Charlotte- town until 'two o'clock in the morn- ing a distance of 40 miles in three hours.

I know that Captain Read is not

responsible for these delays. ills ativicc and influence. however. asl understand it. are the prime cause for the steamer not connecting with the late trains t`or about se- vcn nlollt-hs each year. l have shown that there is no reasonable excuse or justification for this. No new full-fledged car ferry steamer or one .built for summer use only. can in the -least cllro the trouble. lt` it he dangerous now to rlln ono steanler after night.that danger will not be diminished by placing two in commission. The danger plea is however pure fiction alld more pretence.

Your correspondent "Student"

represents me as abusing the Cup tain an-d charging him with cow- ardlce. Tile accusation is wllolly incorrect. l did suggest. however. that the ever sought after short working hours and the interest which the claims of a large stock and farm had begotten, had much to do with the carefully const,ruct~ ed theory which placed tile alter night navigation of the straits in the late autumn in the extra lla- zardous class. Facts and circllm- stances and admissions which have come from the vain gratification of a desire to appear in the pu-hlic press have. however, completely destroyed this theory. There is no longer the least excuse for its pro- pagation and it will he strange in- deed if any one has the boldness to again propound it.

lt. seems scarcely necessary that

l should pay any further a-ttention to Student's letters. Schoolmaster- like. he quotes the section in the constitution dealing with the pro vision securing our communication with the Mainlllnd, as if it were something no one else knew uny- thing about and smacks his lips over it with n self satisfied relish that he has solved the whole tiif- flculty. He is by no means clear however. as to what particular de- _
