Then, there is the proposed new
jail, regarding the necessity for ‘which The Patriot said, a short
time ago:
“The report (of the Grand Jury) ‘ The jail may be briefly de- ' scribed as a disgrace to the Pro- vince.’ These are samples and there are others. The question of ex- | pense is a serious one, but WHILST |THE NECESSITY IS SO GREAT we be- | lieve that means should be secured _to provide for the construction of a new and up-to-date prison. ”’
Says :
The cost of such a prison as the Patriot demands, such a prison as | must ere long be built, will bring | the debt and liabilities of the Pro- vince up to ONE MILLON dollars—even |if the ordinary expenditures of the |Government should forthwith be within the limits of the

BUSINESS. |
| A Montreal despatch reports :- ‘* Mr. Blair has made a contract to ship 300,000 bushels of grain from St. John. It isexpected the country will lose $16,400 on the contract. allowing a quarter of acent per ton | per mile as the actual cost of carry ing grain, which is the lowest pos sible estimate, and the cost of ele vation in St. John at one-half cent per bushel. The actual cost of carry
inthe grain from Montreal to St John is $72.38 per car load of 1,000 bushels. At the figure at which
Mr. Blair has offered to do business the I. C. R. will receive just $18 per
1,000 bushels, leaving a balance of $04.38 representing the actual loss to the government road in the
transaction. ’
It is pointed out that the receipts for hauling 300,000 bushels or 9.000 tons of wheat, at three cents per hundred pounds,or 60 cents per ton, are $5,400.
The cost of hauling 9,000 tons*740 miles at one-fifth of a cent per ton per mile is $13,320.

If the costof carriage is placed at | a quarter of a cent per ton per mile | the loss is increased to over $11,000. | If the elevator charges are added.
loss is
on the transaction
the loss is still further increased.
The St. John Globe makes the | total loss $15,000, which is a heavy deficit on less than $6,000 worth of business.
While the Government is losing money at this rate for the sake of | the farmers and shippers of the. nainland, Prince Edward Island paying its full share, nothing what- ever is apparently being done to- | wards the transportation of our
farmers’ products direct to the British markets. We call the attention of our!
farmers and men of business to this fact. This is not a matter of party ; it is a matter of business in which all are interested. ©

—WaANTED, able and discreet men for business to represent the capital city in the Provincial Legis- lature. The first applicant is Mr. | John Whear. |
Mr. Whear is canvassing hard ;— | but sensible electors will not promise | him their votes until they see wh») else is to be in the field !
Tue Montreal Star points out that ‘‘it might well be regarded as a) calamity if the elections were all one-sided. A vigorous opposition is a healthy check and restraint upon hasty or vicious legislation, and an overwhelming majority behind a| Government often tempts it away from the path of rectitude.”’
Tuk Patriot’s eulogy of Mr. Whear, the Government’s candidate, is a little overdrawn. There is no such thing as an ‘Acting Mayor’’ in the City Constitution. There is a ** Pre- siding Councillor,’’ which honor,if we remember aright,has been conferred Council upon Councillor Tanton. When a choice was to be made of a representative
