THE GRIT CIRCULAR.

Cuartorrerowy, P. E. Island, August 3rd, 1893.

Dear Sim,—In the month of June last the Liberal Party of the Dominion held a grand Convention at Ottawa, which was in every respect a marked success. The unanimity and enthusiasm at that Conven- tion were not only gratifying in theméelves but gave assurance that, with proper or- ganization, ® majority of the constituencies would at the first opportunity return Lib- eral mem bers.

The special duty of the Maritime Lib- erals ia tc: see to the organization of th: Maritime constituencies. Mr. Laurier is at present, w th the aid and asvistance « a zood Committee, earnestly engaged i this work of organization in Quebec, an our friends in Ontario, realizing the in of the caumpaigi ahead of them, are strengthening the outposts and prtting their ce nutral orpan zation on a fighting footing.

The question for us is, shall the Mari- time P.ovinces do their duty in tim mat ter? We believe the heart of the peopk is sound upon the questions which div ike the two great parties. But however sound at heart they,may be, and however hard- working individual friends may be in their different section=-, experience ha: shown that, without thorough organiza tion and a central authority, individua: and sectional efforts are often practically wasted.

After the Ottawa Convention a meeting of the delegates from Nova Scotia, New

of the} Brunswick and Prince Edward Island was

held, and after a full discussion @ Mari- time Liberal Association was formed. A list of the officers of this association is en- closed herewith.

Amongst other objects which it is hoped the association may carry out, that of dis- seminating political literature ought to be prominent. We have already distributed a very large number of the convention numbers of the Montreal Herald and Tor- onto Globe, and hope, during the interval between now and the general etsction, to follow this up with more campaign litera- ture, in which the burning questions of the day will be discussed specially as they affect our Maritime people.

A strong desire was expressed for the appointment of a Travelling Secretary who would devote his whole time to the work of organization in the Maritime Provinces. To pay for the services of a competent officer and his travelling ex- penses, to provide campaign iiterature, and meet the incidental ‘expenses of the

organization, will require a consider- able sum. A few of the friends assembled at Ottawa subscribed various sums. Several of these would

prolably increase their subscriptions if as- sured that the work would be energetically carriedon. Before the officers can make en- gagements which wil! involve them in con- siderable financial responsibility, they must know how far they can rely on the support of the party. If the necessary pledges are given, and a part of the amount subscribed paid in, the Travelling Secretary will be appointed, and arrange- ments made for an’effective organization.

If the financial support is not forthcom- ing, the scheme must be abandoned and each county left to look after itself. There are some counties which can be depended on to attend to the party work, but there are many in which it is certain that that party interests will be neglected unless looked after in the way proposed.

Do you want to see a vigorous organiza- tion of the Liberal Party in the Maritime Provinces ? If #0, are you prepared to contribute in proportion to your means, and ask the co-operation of others? A few friends who are able to do so should give generous subscriptions; others less wealthy should give what they can.

Herewith we send you forms of sub- scription. Will you kindly endeavor to have these signed by our friends, and re- turned to me at Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, with checks or post office orders for one-half of the subscription.

Prompt action in this matter is neces- sary if the Maritime Liberal Association is to do the work expected of it.

You will please accept this circular as a formal notice of your appointment on the committee of the association.

Faithfully yours, President. W.S. Fievpixe ) > Vice-Presidents. H. R. Ewersox }

BELFAST NOTES.

We had a visit last week from Mr. and Mre. McLean, o€..Pennygroas, Seotland. Mr. McLean, is, we believe, Chieftain of Clan McLean, and represented that body as such’ at the World’s Fair, Chicago. They were the guests of our good old Scotch Minister, Rev. A. Me. L. Sincia‘r.

We had the pleasure of listening to Rev. Mr. Laing, of Halifax, in the Belfaet Pres- byterian Church last Sabbath, He is ar attractive and powerful preacher. He is here in the interests of the Halifax Ladies’ College.

We are happy to welcome back to our midst our worthy friend, Theo. McLeod, Principal of Eldon Lehool, who has been ——s his late holidays at Summerside.

e understand it is the Professor’s in- tention in the near future to give one of hie grand entertainments, assisted by local and outside talent, the proceeds of which are to be devoted to the laudable object of establishing a public library at thie place. It is ulao pleasant to see Miss McPhail again amongst ue. Miss McPhail has been saddled with the responsibility of directing the study of our juveniles. Her task iss difficult one and we wish her every success, If she cannot surpass, we hope she may be able to “collar” the principal in the race for high professional attainments.

Our enterprising and competent carriage builder, Mr. N. Gillis, is doing a good business at Eldon. We understand it is his intention soon to take a partner into the concern, and add a paint shop to the establishment.

What might have proved a matter of very serious consequence occurred to the young member for Belfast while passing Tanner's Creek last Satarday evening. Our M. P. P. with head erect and driving like Jehu, scorned to notice anything ter- restrial. But pride ever goeth before a fall. Suddenly a wonderfnl transforma- tion scene occurs. The carriage contain- ing aforesaid magnate suddenly encoun- ters a deep gully which crosaes the road at this place, and which has been for some time the shame of the powers that be, and has been the cause of more than one car- riage coming to grief. The driver, no longer able to remain in atatu quo (as he himself might express it) seemed uncer- tain for a time whether to straddle his flyer, or by performing a somersault land anywhere but where he was. We under- stand he has recovered from the shock.

ABOUT COCOA.

Messrs. Water Baxer & Co., 6 Hospita) Street, City :—~

Dear Six,—-I have made ao careful chemical and microscopical examination of a sample of “Baker’s Breakfast Cocoa,” purchased in the open market. I find that it is entirely free from sugar, foreign starch, flour, hueks and other substances used as filling in yarious cocoa prepara- tions, It eontains no trace of free alkalis or of artificial coloring or flavoring sustances, It may, therefore, justly be called an absolutely pure cocog, Baker's Breakfast Cocoa may be briefly described asthe carefully roasted kernel of the cocoa bean, deprived of @ portion of ite excessive amount of fat and reduced to an exceedingly fine powder which readil forms an emulsion when treated with boiling water or water and milk.

GERMAN PAPERS EXCITED.

They are Diseussing the Chances of a European War,

The semi-official newspapers have not yet been instructed how to treat the Czar’s frank words to President Carnot eoncern- ing the bonds of friendship between France and Russia, says a Jate despatch from Berlin. Consequently most of the editors have neglected to comment on the Czar’s letter. The Nord Deutsche Allegemein Zeitung already is denouncing the cant of the French and Russians about peace, de- spite the common rejoicing in obtaining as allies the strength necessary to menace Germany unity.

The most significant sign that the anti- Russian campaign is about to be renewed Officially is the reappearance of reports that Russian troops are being distributed rapidly in the army, and that the Baitic and Black sea fleets of Russia are to be increased greatly in the near future. Aus- trian military newspapers report the ercction of immense new barracks and provision. magazines on Russia’s west- ern frontier, and the construction of a stra- tegic railway from St. Petersburg to Kieff. Military authorities agree, however, that, the Russian troop: will require a year’s drilling intthe use. of their new. rifles, and that, therefore, peace is secured for the present, unless the Franco-Russian 4 plans involye an. attagk:. npon England previous toany quarrel with the Tripfe alliance. The growing impression in diplomatic circles is that the weak policy of Mr. Gladstone and Lord Roseberry in the Siamese dispute between France and England has encouraged both countries to seize further advantage at the Britfsh Government’s expense. Russia is already pressing nearer to India and is organizing a Mediterranean fleet, while France selects as her first spot the Smoking valley to the Chinese frontier.

LITERARY NOTES.

Mr. Howells has given the title of “My Literary Passions” to hisditerary autobiog- raphy which he has written for The Ladies’ Home Journal, and will begin in the next issue of that magazine.

It is a fact that although Eugene Field has written over five hun- dred poems, he has never written a single love-song. “I don’t kuow exactly why.it. is,” said the Western poet recently in ex- planation, “except that I was married when quite young, and I did not begin to write poetry ,untill after my marriage.” Mr, Field has now written his first love-poem, which. he calls “Will You be My Sweet- heart,?” and has given it to The Ladies Home Journal for publication.

curious

A magazine is usually satisfied “with one strong feature for the month. The Cosmopolitian, however, presents for

November wo Jess than five very unusual ones, William Dean Howells gives the letters of the traveller, who , been visiting this country, from Altruria. We have read Mr. Howells’ impression of the Altrurian; but in this first letter we have the Altrurian’s impressions of New York; withsome comments upon our government and society, calculated to awaken the most conservative minds. The second feature of The Cesmopolitian is the portion of the ‘magazine given up to color work, no less than ten superb color illustrations beirg pre. eated for the first time in magar zine history, accompanying an article by Mre. Roger A.Pryor on “Changes in Women’s Costumes.” The third feature is “American Notes.” by Walter Besant, who was recently in America and is doing the United Sta e: for the Cormopolitan ala Dickens. The fourth feature is an article by General Badeau on “The ferms of Tn- vitation Used by the Enytisiv Nobility?” The article is illustrated by the facsimile of cards to the Queen’s drawing-room, to dinner at the Princess of Wale-, and to many leading houses in England. Finally, we have a new anil very curios story by Mark Twain, called “The Esqui- mau Maiden’s Romance.” It is in hs happiest vein and is illustrated by Dan Beard. The November number presents the work of many artists, among whcm are: C. S. Reinhart, Otto Guillonnet, J. H. Harper, G. Hudson, Franz yon Lenbach, George Wharton Edwards, F. Schuyler Matthews, Dan Beard, W. L, Sontag, Jr., F.G. Attwood, C. Hirschberg, J. Habert- Dye, August Franzen, Louis J. Read, J. N, Hutehins and Hamilton Gibson.

CANNIBALISM IN SAGHALIEN.

The Japan Mail brings the following story of cannibalism in Eastern Siberia. It says: “The last number of the Valdirostock, a newspaper published in Eastern Siberia, reveals a terrible state of atfairs among the convicts on the island of Saghalien. It would appear that the convicts there haye been treated by some of the subordinate prison authorities so harshly that the governor of the is!and has been obliged to interfere for their protection. “3

“A warier named Khanoff and some of his assistante, who atone time were con- victs themselvee and had been raised to the rank of jailor, have been removed from their posts, Khanoffs treatment of the prisoners was so abominable that a num- ber of them crippled themse!ves, cutting off fingers and toes, in order to be treated

as invalids and to be freed from the terrible |

cruelties, Others fled to the impenetrable forest, where they suffered all the horrors of hunger.

“Ina satchel belonging to a fugitive convict, who had been uated down, were found some pieces of human flesh. Inves- tigation revealed that this man had been one of a party of four, and that only one of them now remained. The others had been killed and devoured by their comrades. Similar cases of cannibali-m are, according to the Siberian journal, not infrequent.
