THE UNITED STATES

PITTATU MARKET

The value of the llnitcd States mar-

ket to Canadian potato growers may be gauged by the following extract from n letter received yesterday hy one of the largest produce merchants in Charlottetown in reply to an eit- quiry in Boston its to the potato otit- look:

"l cannot see much chaiire for any

importation of pf-tzttotu from your prtvlnre ns then- nrt- more potatoes in this country than will I-vor be used. We are buying whit-i potatoes lu Maine nt the present time at from i5 to 17 cents per bushel and arc having linrd work to selhthem to get our money back even at that price. There is more than 60 per cent. of last ycar’s crop still left on the farmers' hnnels atid we can see nothing but a bad market for the balance of the season."

Our farmers. as The Guardlati has

repeatedly pointed out. must depend upon other than United States mar- kets for their potatoes.

plans now under way are carried out, a rousing reception awaits Senator P. C. Murphy upon his return home here, in honour of his splendid speech in the Senate the other day. His friends. irrespective of pizrty politics. his cou- stituents and the general public nd- mire the diplomacy and statesmanship of this well known orator and politi- cian. Senator Murphy, in championing l}rltain‘s-cause in the present warfare only voices his past devotion to his country anti King. for it is no secret. that he sacrificed two of his young sons to enlist, who are now in training preparatory to going to the front soon.-Z. '

-FOX KING AWAY.-Texas and

vin Gallnut, son of Capt. Frank Gul- lant, of Leoville, with his wife are home from Maine for the winter months. Having been recently mar- ried. this young couple are being en- tertained by Mr Gallant's former friends here.-Z.

- MARDI-GRA FESTIVALS. -

Never in all the history of this part of' the province has Mardi-Gras sea- son been celebrated as it is this winter. Fortho last week whlat parties, sociuls and dances have been held nightly, anti weather being examplnry, with roads unexcelletl, pleasure seek- ers have availed themselves of these conditions and kept up the nicrriment which will soon end by Lent coming on Ash Wednesday.-Z.

-COMING SOON. -'- Negotiations

have ended favourably to Mr Amable Bernard, Qf Sydney Mines, in his pur- chase from Mi- (f. F. Morrisey of a valuable site" on Main Street, which will be opened as a tinsbop about May lst. Tignish was formally the home of llir Bernard, who while here carried on n similar business, but when the boom was on ln Sydney Mines moved his business there and amassed a snug fortune. ln an inter- view with him recently the writer was informed that at the present time competition was too close throughout Cape Breton in this line oi' business, hence after much deliberation lilr Bernard decided that Tignlsh was mak1HS such progress that he was certain he could carry on his busi- ness :.ucces'fully here.-Z.

-GCOD BUSINESS.-That the war

scare has no effect on the stores in general throughout this part of the province is shown by the large ship- ments of goods arriving daily to the retail stores of Tignish and Alberton. From several- managers of the leading retail and wholesale establishments the writer leams that the business in general since the war broke out has shown no decrease and the expecta- tions of good business in the future are such that n great deal more goods are being bought now than what was bought last year nt this time.-Z.

-USE THE SOFT PEDAL.-To all

those who are the loudest advocating the dismissal of the police officer and doing away .with the ofilce entirely, tlte writer counsels the above warn- ing. All fair minded citizens know that since this town became incor- porated tunl has had police protec- tion it has been a decided change for the better. liquor selling has de- creased, the crowd of ruflians who constantly congregated around the corners tially have vanished and people no longer fear to drive away tit night in the dark expecting o misslc of some sort being thrown at their bends. or have their properly stolen or destroyed. for such was the case here on several occasions pre- vious to having police protection.-Z.

-PASTORAL LETTER. - Botti

Charles Dalton to the St Dunstan‘s College. The letter as a whole dealt with tho present war situation. exhortlug dll Christians to pray tor universal peace.--Z.

There he drank a glass of wine and chatted pleasantly to those who were following him, but as he left he sud- denly found himself face to face with or rather almost in the middle ot what appeared to be a strong force of the French. The tension for the mo- inent was great. Then a German ofli- cer stepped forward. He was covered with confusion at the shock which had been created by what he had intended as a pleasant surprise. He explained falteringly that the Frenchmen were a company of prisoners whom he had brought to see his Emperor.

FREDERICTON, N. B., Feb. 12. --

Rev. Thomas Marshall. chairman of the Fredericton Methodist District, returned this morning from St. John. but up to this afternoon he was not prepared to make any statement as to what action the Methodist Church will take in the matter oi' the charges tltat n minister of the Church on the Nashwnak Circuit had been preaching nuti-British sermons, discouraging the Belgians and Canadian soldiers, and otherwise showing a lack of patriot- ,isni which should characterize Chris- tinn ministers’ actions. Rev. Mr. Mar- shall snid. however. that as chairman of the district, he had not as yet' 're- ceived any formal charges against the minister involved and was unable to toll what action would be taken by the church authorities in the event of no forinnl complaints being made.
