**In 1878-9 it cost $1.55 to earn $1, and you know buw fast a person would get rieh at that rate. In 188081, a little less than one dullar was required to earn a dollar; in other words the road was earni.g a small amount. Thus it will be seen the pledge of economy has been redeemed. He had some ether fur- ther figures. In 1875-9 the train miles run was 2,111,426; in 1880-1, 2,813,723— differ- ence 702,277. In 18789 the number ef tons of freight carried was 510,861; in 1881-2 it was 725,577 —difference 214,716, er enough to till 21,471 box cars.

This had all been done and the freight charges actually reduced oniron, l.me, ship knees, pilaster, slate, minerals, ships’ rig-

Ferry

Tax Patriot of last evening attaeks the Government on account of insufficiency of boat accommodation on the Southport Ferry. Tho editor accuses the Government ef ‘‘ neglect” and “‘indifference’ which he describes as ‘‘shameful” and ‘simply disgraceful.”

Of eourse this language is just what might have been expected from the Patriet when spaking of the acts of ‘‘ hateful Tories.’ But when we remember that the Southport Ferry is being conducted in strict accordan:e with a contract entered into by the Davies Government, it is easy to per- eeivesthat the organ, in its usual blundering way, has ‘‘ put its foot in it.”

it will be somewhat amusing te observe the manner in which the editor will squirm eut of the blunder which he has made. Somebody will be served with a dish of Billingsgate, so as to direct attention from the way in which the awkward marksman

THE DAILY EXAMINER, DECEMBER 1, 1881.

St. Andrew's Day.

Tus members of the Caledonian Club met at their Club Room last evening, at eight o'clock, and, after the transaction of busi- ness, they, headed by their piper, pro- ceeded to the Rankin, where the annual St. Andrew’s Dinner was prepared. The Chair was taken by John A. MeDonell, Esq., President of the Club, and J. W. Morrison, Esq., acted as efficient eroupier. Among the guests were Col. Dunn, U. 5 Consul, James Reddin, Esq., and Henry Lawson, Esq. The dinner was prepared in the best style of the Rankin, and fully sus- tained the reputation of the caterers for good taste. Every delicacy obtainable at the present season was provided, and the host and hostess were very properly com- plimented on the manner in which they served up the viands. The following was

We must net forget te note that among the dishes was the ‘‘ Haggis,” a dish well known to the ‘‘ Sons of the Heather,” and judging from our cbservationa last evening, thoroughly relished by them. When ample justice was done to the good things pro vided, the intellectual part ef the pre- gramme was commenced, and the following toasts were honored in cold water ?---

The Local Government and the’

Seott Act.

Some of the correspondents of our daily contemporary appear to besuspicieusthat the Government are not sincere in carrying out the Scott Act, and appeal to the drinking practised in Queen's Cevnty in proof. Now, what are the facts? The representative Temperance men ef the Province asked last spriag that Inspectors should be ap- pointed. Their request was gramted and an Inspector appointed in each County— the msn being neminated by the Alliance. A vacancy occurred in King’s County dur- ing the autumn, and at the first meeting of the Executive Council held thereafter, Mr. Edward Lane, of New Perth, wae ap- pointed—he being recommended for that position by the Alliance.

The Oppesition think it a first-rate game te blame the Conservatives fer any viola- tions of the law, while at the same time they are chuckling over the manner in which they think Mr. L. A. Davies is pleas- ing the liquor dealers by the assistance which he is giving them in fighting against the Scott Act.
