THE DAILY EXA

"MAY 1, 1891. .

The Bishop of Charlottetown.

News that Bishop Melntyre has passed away from earth was received here this morning. The good gray head of the rever- end man whom all men loved has been laid low forever.

His Lordship left Charlottetown yester- day morning in the steamship Stanley. He was then in good spirits and apparently in his usual health, Father McElmeel re- ceived a telegram this morning conveying the information that he died suddenly at Antigonish last night, of heart disease.

This is the short and simple story of event which will be mourned throughout the diocese of the good Bishop—by Pro- Catholics. lt true

an

testunts as well as gs tri

that there is in this case,— ' ‘*Nothing to wail Or knock the breast, no weakness, no con- tempt ; Dispraise or blame, nothing but well and f Air, And what may quiet us in death so noble. It is true too, that Bishop McIutyre had

completed the allotted span of human life

and that recent ailments and illnesses had caused his friends to anticipate the time when he shoulkl depart and be no more

seen. Still, the suddeness of his departure, the prominence of his figure and position, the strength of his truly christian charac- ter, the hold he had upon the heart of the community,—all combine to force the cry of heartfelt regret and pain, and to start the sympathetic tear.

The good Bishop was born Head on the 29th June, 1818, sv had almost completed “his seventy-third He was, the

youngest son of Angus McIntyre, who was

one of the Catholics of histime in this Province, and a great friend of the late Bishop McEachern. By the influence of this prelate, the father was induced to devote his son to the service of the Church. The boy was consequently educated to that end. He was one of the first students of the old St. Andrew's Col- lege. Subsequently he proceeded to the College of St. Hyacinth, in Quebec, where he studied fur five years. He entered the GrandSeminary of Quebec in 1840, and three years later he was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Signay, in the Cathedral at (Jaebec. Returning to his native Island, he was, after a short time, placed in charge of the parish of Tignish, including at that time Lot 7, Brae aud Cascumpec. LTlere he inspired the people to build a large and beautiful church of brick-——one of the first erected in the Province—and quently a handsome Parochial House and Convent. His zeal and ability were soon recognized by the Church, and on the death of Bishop Macdonald he was appoint- ed,to the Bishopric of Charlottetown, com- prising Prince Edward Island and the Mag- delene Islands. His consecration place on the 15:h August, 1860, so that he

subse-

tools was Bishop for upwards of thirty years. Nearly six years have elapsed since his Silver Jubilee was joyfully celebrated.

Of Bishop McIntyre’s administration it is almost needless to say anything. Many of his good works are seen and known of all men. The education of the Catholic youth of the diocese was his first care. At all the principal towns throughout the Island he caused the erection of large schoolhouses. The building of St. Dan- stan’s College was one of the first important works in Which he engaged. talent for building. and Convents stand memorials of his energy, ability,and influence in this diocese.

The wisdom of his course is justified by the growth of the Roman Cathelic Church im this diocese. When he was consecrated there were but thirteen priests ; now there are about forty. When he came to the Episcopal Throne, the>Catholic population of the diocese was about 35,000 ; now it is estimated, at 60,000. He established parishes at Cardigan Bridge, Montague Bridge, CUardigan Road, Morell, South Shore, Hope River, Lot 7, Let 11, Brae, Palmer Road, Little Pond, Bloomfield, Alberton, Summerside, and Bassin, in the Magdalen Islands; and he leaves every Parish and Mission well organized. The churches and high schools erected under his superintendence number well nigh, if not fully, a quarter of a hundred.

In 1877 he organized the Central Council of the Catholic Total Abstinence Mission with affiilated societies in every part of the diocese. In the suppression of intemper- ance, he has done a great and noble work. Many Catholic settlements, made notorious by drunkeneas, have undér his influence, been converted into temperate, thrifty and prosperous communities,

The Charlottetown Hospital was estab- lished by him in 1878.

As 4 man and & prelate, he was a grand and admirable figure. ‘* We shall not look upon his like again.” His majestic, ven- erable form contained a large heart that was full ot Christian charity towards all man.

E DAILY EX

Our Judiciary.

——=

THE departure of Mr. Justice Hensley for England, on leave of absence for six months, must tend to move men's minds to a consideration of the condition and posi- tion of the Judiciary of thia Province, No one will grudge to Mr. Justice Hensley his well-earned leave of absence. He has worked earnestly and faithfully for many years, without intermission, to the satisfac- tion of the Public and the Bar. Everyone

will admit that he is fairly entitled to the short release which he has obtained from his arduous duties. But -how will our courts be constituted, in the meantime / We shall have only two judges to hear the causes to be tried. It seems to us that the interests of the Province in respect to both Law and Equity, must, under these cir- cumstances—notwithstanding the admitted ability of the two remaining Judges—suffer materially. In any case heard in our courts while Judge Hensley is away from home, all the points must be determined by one of the remaining Judges. If it be deemed desirable to apply for a new trial — a frequent oecurrence—the lega) points, al- ready passed upon by one of the Judger, will come up for argument before the full court, composed—how / —of but two judges, me of whom has already passed judgment upon the matter to be argued! If, in such a case, one Judge should differ with the trying Judge, nothing can be gained by the suitor in the appeal, while loss of and costs must, inevitably, be incurred. This anomaly and injustice must occur whenever, at any time, any one of cur Judges is absent on leave cr incapaei- tated on account of illness.

The appointment of an additional assist- ant Judge would remedy this evil. But the Government would, perhaps, act more wisely if, in respect to Prince Edward Island, they were to follow the course adopted in the neighboring Prov- inces of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, and appoint a Judge in Equity. The practice in Equity has in recent years been rapidly growing in this Province. In the opinion of those who are competent to judge, it is now suflicient to occupy the whole time of one of the Judges and to of a Judge in

time

warrant the appointment Equity.

We note, in looking over the Dominion Statutes, that this Province is not liberally dealt with, either in respect to the number of its Judges or the remuneration obtained by them fortheirservices. Inthe Province of Ontario there are four Equity Judges and ten Supreme Court Judges, with salaries ranging from $6,000 to $5,000 per year. In the Province of Quebec there are thiry- four Superior Court Judges, with salaries ranging from $6,000 to $3,500. Tn Nova Scotia there are six Supreme Court Judges and a Judge in Equity, with salaries from $5,000 to $4,000. In New Brunswick there is a Judge in Equity and five Supreme Court Judges, with salaries ranging from $5,000 to $4,009. In Manitoba (with a smaller population than P. E. Ieland) There are four Supreme Court Judges with salaries from $5000 to $4000. In British Columbia there are five Supreme Court Judges with salaries from $5,820 to $4,850. In the Northwest Territories there are five Judges, each with a salaty of $4000. But Prince Edward Island has only three Judges with salaries raging from $4000 to $3,200. We have not only the smallest number of Judges, —our Judges have also the lowest salaries ! Is there any good reason why this disparity should exist / If there is, let the difference be, by all means, perpetuated.

Our Judges devote their learning and their time to the faithful discharge of their judicial duties. Can anything more be said concerning the more liberally paid judges of the other parts of Canada /

It has been announced that the Minister of Justice will, during the present session of Parliament, again submit his bill to im- prove the position of the Judiciary of Oan- ada. Wo hope that the Government and Parliament will not let slip the opportunity to remedy the grievance suffered by this Province,— by giving to it an additional judge, and by advancing the salaries of our judges so that they shall stand upon an

equality with their fellow judges in every other Province of this Dominion.

—The wages of French farm laborershave increased four-fold in France since 1800— viz., from 96 frances (about $19) to 400 francs (about $80) yer year in addition to board, This advance accrues to the man- of-all-work on the farm. The wages of the shepherd have not risen in the same pro- portion, but only from 360 franes (about $90) to 600 francs (about $150) with board. The increase of wages of the common field laborer is referred to different causes, as the very slow increase of population, the de- mand for labor in factories and on rail- roads, and in part to the military conscrip- tion, which, taking young men away from the farm at @ period when their habits are forming, accustoms them to a different sort of life, and gives them a taste of the life of towns.

“ Chatauqua.”

Tue lecture of Rev. Henry Dickie, in the basement of Zion Church last evening, was a singularly clear exposition of the scope, principles and aims of the great Chatauqua movement. The lecturer de- fined the aim of the Chatauqua school as ‘*The higher education of the people by the means of systematic home reading, sys- tematic study at home conducted by cor- respondence, summer schools at Chatauqua, and courses of lectures on various subjects delivered at convenient points.” It must have been a matter of some surprise to most ef those present to learn the almost marvellous success which has attended the movement, its students numbering upwards of 100,000, while its circles are to be found not only in the United States and Qanada but in England, India, Africa and the islands of the Pacific. The great advantage of such a course of study to busy men and women was clearly showa, the time devoted to study not interfering with business hours, but beingthe spare minutes which may be redeemed from even the busiest life. All departments of study are embraced within the course, and as an in- stance of its success the case of a driver on & tramcar who had worked himself up so as to be looked upon as an authority in San- scrit was cited. The lecturer’s opinion is that this mode of study will be the mode of the future, except, perhaps, for purely pro- fessional students. Prof. Harper, of Yale, who is one of the leaders of the mcvement, says that from experience he is perfectly convinced that study by correspondence gives more satisfactory results than oral in- struction.

The leeture closed with a deseription of the beautiful grounds and buildings ar Chatauqua, and gave the cost of a seven weeks stay there in the summer, travelling expenses, board, ete,, included, at $80. It is greatly to be desired that the re ~of last evening may bear fruit in the forma- tion ot a circle or circles on our Island.

The Grand Trunuk Poll.

ENDORSE SIR HENRY TYLER'’S MANAGEMENT— THE OPPOSITION ORGANIZING,

Lonpon, April 28.—The pol! election “of directors of the Grand Trunk Railway took place to-day and resulted in 47,230 votes, given by 105 persons, for the bourd’s ticket, and 20,707, by 127 persons, against the board. The proxies held by the directors in favor of their ticket numbered ‘1,533, representing 229,444 votes. The retiring directors were consequently re-elected by « majority of two to one of personal” votes, apart from proxies. <A large crawd of shareholders assembled at two o’cloek, when the voting began, and an attempt was made by the opponents of the board to hold a regular meeting. Sir Henry Tyler, however, declared that the shareholders had been simply called for a poll on the el- ection of directors aud he would not allow auy other business to be proceeded with. The poll was then opeued and voting pro- ceeded quietly, but with much suppressed excitement until 4 ’clock. Then Sit Henry Tyler requested the shareholders toattendat the general meeting room to hear the re- sult of the poll announced. The angounce- ment was made by Mr. Baker amidst much enthusiasm on the part of the board’s sup- porters. Those at the meeting opposed to the board protested against the tors using proxies given in before the general meeting a fortnight ago in ignorance.of the whole facts of the case. They also protested against the absence of representative share- holders among the scrutineers. Sir’ Henry Tyler said he.already handed in proxies 11 justice to twenty-three thousand shafehold. ers, of whom two hundred and _thitiy-four were present to-day. He had also offered

to admit another scratineer after polling be. gan, but the offer was refused. Sorhe vio- lent speeches against Sir He Tyler and the genera! policy followed. ~ Messrs.

Household, Jeffreys and Baker declared that shareholders intended t» organize to secure thorough reform in the management of the company. A large ndmbosidishece: holders had already given their adhesion to the opposition movement. Sir ‘Henry Tyler declared the poll elosed at 4.50. He ee declared the retiring directors re- elected.
