PROPOSED SALE OF GOVERNMENT
FARM Trene is, without doubt, a very strong feeling in this city and throughout the ling in th t ‘
. ’ So of country against the proposed sacrifice
to private
Government House property
‘ndividuals for the sake of the few dol-
ars that it will bring. An instance of the
necessity of Government House is fresh 7 le
in the minds of everyone When the late
L’eutenant Governor Carvell was appoint-
ed the house did not contain those mod-
ences which belosg to the re f wentiemen, and His Honor re

W verdict was that it would never do at all,
opiuton fairly ferced the Ad
and public ’ vernment House in
tainistration to put G repair and the Leut.-Governor to go into i ia haste. Though Prince Edward Island ig «mall, and though her people are ct wealthy, there is here, nev rtheleas, a pre
per priie in the Province and a feeling
that it should not be placed in a position of political or social inferiority to 1t8 larg- er neighbors. Our loyal people would not like to see this Province have the go-by in the case of visit of a Prince of the blood or any high representative of Her Majesty. They would not care to have it said by those in charge of the arrangements, “Ob, Prince Edward Island has no first-class hotels, aud the Government has sold Gov- ernment House, and its only a emall agri- cultural place anyway, and we had better Provinces.” Those enthusiasm
goonto the larger who remember the pride and with which the people enterta ned the Prince of Wales and Prince Arthur when they were here will not easily be led to believe that they are anxious to dispose, for the sake of a few paltry dollars, of the Only means by which it is possible for them to extend such hospitalities.
But there is another and an important view to be taken of tue matter. The farm was without doubt originally designed for the benefit of the citize:s of Charlotte- They have been content so longas But hew

will they feel whea they see the shore frout lined with private houses whic may or may not be oraamental and will
be certain to exhale tbe oders of their back yards into Victoria Park? We think that the constituents of Messrs. Rogers and
Prowse will have a right to complain and protest and petition against the proposed sale of Goverument property; and that if it should he proceeded with will not put adollar of civic money into the proposed Park roadway the lands of private individuals. After the sensible and forcible remarks made by Premier Peters when the question was up

THE MANITOBA QUESTION.
EVeRyoNe now expresses regret that the negotiations with Winnipeg have failed. But no one who has wa‘ched the rise and progress of the grievance to be remedied and the course of events in respect to it ia greatly surprised. As Dr. Weldon re- marked, a few weeks ago,the Acts of 1890 were “born in perfidy and cradled in dis- honor.” It is now more evident than ever that they are beiog maintained to make between the races and creeds of the people in the hope
trouble throughout Canala that the Liberals (save the mark) may as arcsult snatch a victory apd gain cfilice and power. Not long agothe Guardian stated that the schools cf Manitoba are the expressed tLe Opinion thai tie Catholics of Manitoba are inconsistent and
are now on “ all fours with those of
Maritime Provinces,” and
because they stand upon their right to relizious schools as set forth in
unreasonable
the law and as de- termined by the Judicial Committee. Our independent contemporary will, of course, be surprised to learn that the Dominion Commissioners offered, on behalf of the minority of Mamitoba, to withdraw the Remedial Bill, if the Government of Mani- toba would but consent to place the schools of Manitoba upon the same basis as those of Nova Scotia and New Bruns- wick, and that this off-r was rejected. It will now be seen bythe Gu irdian and those whotsee with it,that there ie, perhap’, some- thing in the.“ grievance ” resulting from the violation of the “ Parliamentary com- past” of 1870. As a counter proposition to that which they declined to entertain, the Government of Manitoba offered, in the first place, to completely secularize the schools, which are now sub- ject to the regulations in force in the Pro- testant schools to 1820. This proposition could not, consistently, be ac- cepted on the part of a people who declare that they “ believe in the necessity of re- ligious instruction in the schools.” The alternative of giving the ministers of any denomination the right to afford religicus instruction in any public school would so certainly lead discord among the echools, that the proposition to that effect could not be entertained. It is evident that neither of these propositions was snade in the expectation that either wou'd be accepted. The Government of Manitoba is simply playing a political game for Mr. Laurier and his party. It is @ contemptible game, and we hope,
for the credit of this country, that it will rot be successful, but that the order of
the Queen in Council und the decision of
previous
to denominational
the Lords of the Privy éarried out by the prompt passage of the Remedial Bill. The govern ment of Canada
conciliatory from the beginning—offered
'asalast chance to withdraw the billif
schools similar to those of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick are provided in Mani That offer has deliberately Mr. David Mills declared ix. the that
power to
toba. been rejected. House of Commons, a few days ago, “not only had Parliament the interfere® but that it is solemnly bound to do so, either now or later, if no remedy is found.” That is the simple fact, and the
remedy not having been found, though earnestly and persistently sought, room 18
not left for reasonable opposition to the Remedial Bill.
a EASTER MEMORIES,
Rev. W. J. Kirby.
We are indebted for this name, as we are for those of the dave of the week, ‘oa : mythology. Oateru,
survival of the old Teutcnic
To the Germans it is known as and to the Augio-Saxon Kastre, or Evsire, a pame derived from Eostre or Ostava, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of spring, to whom the fourth month, answering ‘o our April, thence called Eoetur movath, was dedicat-— ed. The name of the goddees comes frum the Sax: n Oster, to rise.
The French know Easter as Paques, the Italians as Pasqua, and the Spanish as Pascua, all of which names come from the Latin Pascha and the Greek Parxa, which are again Chaldec or Armamacan forms of the Hebrew, and Pesach, signifying the “Pussover.”
The feast of the Passover had its origin, as is well ktown, from the passing over of the houses of the children of Israel by the destroying Angel, when the firstborn of Egypt were smitten, the memory 0 which was renewed every year by the cele- bration of this feast by the Israelites.
The first Christians were so closely con- nected with the Jewish Church, they naturally continued in some form, the Jewish festivals, and Easter, styled from ancient days the “Queen took the place of the Paschal celebration, and it became to the early church the
ennobling of the passover, by the introduc- |
tion of the thought of the True Paschal Sacrificial Lamb. “Christ our passover was sacrified for me,” and became the first fruits from the dead—the Christian rising day, the resurrection morn, celebrated by us as happy Easter:
“Bloom out, Easter lillies; bloom brightly and fair; Breathe out your pure fragrance upon the united air; Fling your banner so white Gayly out to the light, For past is the lentea of sorrow and care.
For O, with the spring time the Easter is born O it of darkness and night springs the glad welcome dawn, Ani Easter bells ringing, Their Easter song singing, With loud jubilates hail Spring’s sunny morn,
How thankful we should be for Easter ! Dark indeed, was the closing in of the preceding Friday, when in the grave of Joseph of Arimathea, the desciples, the loving woman, and the few who had dared to follow this Jesus of Narzareth, had buried with their Master, their last hope. As they looked over that wonderful life, they had been struck with astonishment at this marvellous works, were confused by the mysterious “sayings’—and joy and surprise, hope aud despair—were constant- ly agitating their thoughts as they attend- ed the teaching of this mao. They could not but think that Christ,in all hedid and said, bad been one magnificent problem, and the end on the cross proved Him to be one complete, ignominious failure. What sadness breathes in those words of the two journeying to Emmani; Luke xxiv. zl. “But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel.”
Whoever else may have been impressed that way by their life and works, at least here are two men who believe Him to be the Messiah. “We trusted” Lut now aee how everything has turned cut! “He was led before Pilate,and when the chance otfered He was only meekuess itself. We were in the procession ov the day He rode so grandly and yet so camly mto Jerasa- lem and while the people were realy to place Him on the throne, aud actually did go so faras todo Him royal honors, yet instead of rising to the occasion, and taking the throne of his father Divid—as we had hoped,—behold him bathed in tears as He looked upon the city, and meved only to receive, without expression of approbation, the simple sougs of the children as they cried Hossanna !”
“And beside al] this to-day is the third day since these things were done.” Sad- hearted — almest breken-hearted — men listen while the stranger at thy side speaks! “Oh, fools! do you know any- thing about the One whom you were ex- pecting—is not the Man of Calvary and the One of Prophesy the same?” “And beginning at Moses and all the prophets He expounded unto them in all the scrip iures the things concerning Himself.”
And if He was only a man, and no more, —if He was an impostor and nothing else —then there is the boldest piece of conesit and impudence ever perpetrated by lips of man “concern ng himself.” And He could use artist’s pen and orator’s tongue to paint and describe that picture so that the journey was altogether too short, and the departure of this stranger came alto- gether too soon. No wonder they return as quickly as possible to Jerusalem and the burden of their hearts is the sweet song of Easter:
THE LORD IS RISEN INDEED,
The new exultant strain that then Broke on that Easter Day, Shall hold its primal glory whea All else has passed away. The din of earth, the strife, the wrong, War’s deadly clashings burled, Shall still be weak to drown the song That girdles all the world,— “The Lord is risen.”
“Ecs‘er is th» pledg: of life arising out of death, of fellowship with all in heaven and on earth.”
“Corist is risen! Faith is our founda- tion, and hope is our anchor, and death our harbor, and Christ our pilot, and heaven our country we are safe.”
So writes Bishop Taylor, and every Christian heart rejoices at the sound of the silvery trumpet, which proclaims the fact that the grave could not hold our Lord and Master.
“Ia vain they watch seal.”
It was..not possible that death shou'd hold Him. Thank God He is risen, and the whole mystery of his life and death is revealed in glaring light. He is what he claimed to be, “tie light of the world,” “the resurrection and the life,” the Mes- siah, for “I tuat speak unto thee am He;” tke divine one, for he claimed, “I aud the Sather am one,” “I am the way, the truth und the life,” “and this is the wil! of God
tLe ttone, the
of Festivals,” ;
a ee
lent.” Let us all close our meditation | by listening to the voice of the Father | himself when he says: “This is my ‘be | loved son, hear Him.” | “Now let me come nearer, O, Christ div- ine ! ; Make in my soul for thyse'f a shrine; Cleanse, till the desolate shall he Fit for a dwelling, dear Lord, with Thee ! Rear, if Thou will, a throne in iy breast; Reign! I will worship and serve my guest. : : Abide Thou in me; if in Thee I abide, What end shall there be to the Easter- tide ?”
COUNTY COURT—MARBCH TERM.
| The March term of the County Court which commenced here on the 24th ult., ended on Tharsday, 2nd instant, after nine jays seasion.
The docket embraced upwards of 200 suite, of which a large number were tried. The following, as we underétand, were the chief of the contested suits.
Eiward Jay ve. Benjamin C. Douglas and others, Commissioners of Sewers. Work done at aboiteau at Mount Stewart, and hire ot dory, $3529. Judgment for $26 30 and Stewart, Q C.. fe p aintiff. :
Juin Moore vs. Thomas J. Dillos. Money received by defeudant for plaintiff's use, $59.86. In this suit plaiatift claimed that he bad made a special contract with defendant for the manufacture of his but- ter at Crapaud Creamery at 3}c. per pound for the season of 1895, and tnat he was to deliver his milk for this purpose at the factory. Defendant manufactured 3421 pounde of butter for plaintiff that season, and in settling with him, he deducted 5{c. per pound, viz., 34c. for manufacturing it, and 1c. per pound which was retained as plaintiffs proportion of the charge ‘payable by the patrons for delivering | their milk at the factory. Plaintiff claim - | ed that he was not entitled to pay this
latter charge, and brought this suit to re-
cover the amount it represented, $59 86. | In defence, defendant claimed that he was ‘an agent and official of the Dominion Gov- ernment, acting under the Department of Agriculture, and as such had contracted wih the Crapsui Creamery Company to rent their favtory at a sum agreed on, and to manufacture butter for them on the | following terms: He was to receive from | them or their patrons all milk that would make first class butter when delivered at the fac’ory; to separate the c-eam from it and to make this into butter, to market what the patrons did not take, ani to keep tLe accounts for a manuf.cturing charge of 3} cents per pound. The milk was de
livered to the factory by persons employed by the company for that purpose. De- fendant had nothing to do with it beyond keeping the accounts of the milk del.vered and be paid for the hauling ef it on the advice of the Secretary of the company by issuing cheques to the Secretary, who wa- afterwards to disburse th: money to th- milk drawers entitled to receive the same. He retained for the company and, under advice from the Secretary, from each of tie patrons of the factory, the sum of lj cents per pound og the butter manufac- tured, to cover the cost of delivering all the milk to the factory. Defendant denied having made any special bargain with plaintiff for the manufacturing of his but- ter distinct from that made by him with the Crapaud Creamery Company, of which plaintiff was a member, or share- holder.
Jadge Alley decided that the defendant was nct liable, ist, Because in operating the factory, he acted asthe agent of the Domiazion Gover: ment, and incurred no personal liability; 2nd, Because he con- tracted with the company as such, and not with its individua] members.
3rd. Because he made no special con- tract with plaintiff as alleged. Judgment was therefore rendered for defendant with costs,
Danie! W. Finlayson vs. Hugh Camp bell—This was an action of damages for not eccepting a Binder sold fur $90 00, payable in three fa'l«. Defence was that Binder was sold subject toterms of return ing it if itdid not gve satisfaction, and that it did not work satisfactor.ly on trial last harvest. After examination of several witnesses, Judge Alley decided that the machine had not been fairiy tested, and the evidence was insufficient to prove that it would not do its work. Oo this ground, and also that defendant kept the machine too long in his possession, judgment was given tor plaintidf for the first instalment, $30.00. Siewart,Q.C., for plaintiff; D. A. McKinnon tor defendant.
Jobn F. Robertson vs. Neil McDougall. —Action for brokerage, $8.95. Judgment for piaintiff,
Thomas F. Guard vs. Malcolm McK non.—Truck wagon sold, $30.00. Jud z- ment for plaint:ff.
George A. Kay vs. John Chappell .—- Rent of house at Southport, horse hire and damages, $31.21. . D:fence, set off; judgment for plaintiff for $13 60.
Edward G. Love vs, John Harper.— pasturage of cow, $7 08. Defence, breach of contract in taking more cows than agreed on, and cutting the grass. Judy- ment for plaintiff for $4.00 without coats.
John Pranty vs. Lawrence McNeil’, $30- 00 and Lawrence McNeill vs. Joho Frunty $72.59. The first of these actions was for balance due on a horse sold, and the sec- ond for breach of warranty. Judgment was given for Prunty in the first suit for $25 00 andin the second suit judgment was given for McNeill for $5. 2v—zosts to be equally divided.
James D. Masonvs. Joseph Gillie, House rent as a yearly tenant $25.00. De~ fendant claimed that he was a monthly venant aud had surrendered premises to plaintiff. Court held Defendant liable as & monthly tenant to one months rent $8.34 and voste.
Robert D. McLaren vs. John Newsor. Action for wrong dismiseal of plainutff as @ hired servant. Plaintiff clajmed that he was a yearly servant and was dismissed without sufficient cause or notice. He threfore claimed wages for the unexpired portion of hie year, ten months, at $12.00 -$120.00. On the facts proved the Judge decided that Plaintiff was a monthly servant at $8.00 during winter months and at $12.00in summer. It was he'd that plaintitt was entitled to receive as damages two months wages $16.00, less $3.50 overpaid and judgment was entered for $12.50 and costs.
The Singer Manufacturing Company vs. Frederick Groom.— Trover for sewing machine. Judgment for plaintiffs for $19.00 without costs. Johnston for plain- tiff; Haszard, Q. C. for defendant. Frederick De C. Davies vs. James Dor sey.—Goods soldiand delivered. Judgment for defendant with costs. Walter B. Robertson ve.

Several other suits were brought involy- ing the same defence and it was agreed that the devision in this one should de‘er- mine the others.

MANITOBA SCHOOL QUESTION Government Commissioners’ 0; fer
SCHOOLS LIKE THOSE OF NOVA SCOTIA AND NEW BRUNSWICK REJECTED,
Mani‘ea Would Secularize Schools or Allow Any Denomination to Give R lig'o1s Instruction in Any Public Scuool During Stated Hoer:.
Orrawa, April 4.
The Dominion schools commissioners are on their way home from Winnipeg. Immediately atter their departure a state- ment of the offers and counter proposals made at the reguiar conference were given out by the counsel forthe minority and Attorney General Sifton respectively. The D.minion delegates proposed on Saturday that the Roman Catholies be given simi!- ar privileges to those enjoyed in the Nova Scotia and New Brunswick schools, the Catholics to have separate school honses in populous districts and Catholic cid en
in either schools to be «xemp! from religious instruction or objectionable clauses in the text-books r muved; al o
that the Catholics have representation on the Educational Board. In all other respects the schools at which the Catholics atte! to be publ c echools, and subject to every provision of the Education Act for the time being in force in Manitoba. If ac cepted, the Dominion delegates promised that the Remedia! Bill would be wiih- drawn.
In reply, the Government of Manitoba rjected tl.e offer, but submitted two alter- natives (1) To completely secnlarize the public echool system, eliiitiating reli- gious exercises and teaching of every™ kind during school hours; (2) To r+ peal the present provisions of the Sciuul Act relative to religious exercises, and allow- ing any denomination to give religious in- struction in any public school during stat- el hours.
The Dominion delegates were unable to accept either of these alternatives, and the conference closed.
HON, EDWARD BLAKE SUD- DENLY ILL.
Loxpoy, April 4.
Edward Blake, the Canadian statesman, was suddenly seized with iliness in the lobby of the House of Commons on Thursday night and felldown. His face was ghastly pale, and he was attacked with such a violent fit of coughing that he appeared to be choking. The Irish mem- bers and officials searched for doctors, but none were in the House. After a glass of water Mr. Blake recovered and said he was subject to like attacks. But he left the building looking ill, much to the alarm of the Irish members. The iliness is pro-’ bably a recurrence of athroat troubie. which attacked Mr. Blake on his wa from Australia. a

A FIRST-CLASS BOOT AND SHOE STORK,
That Charlottetown shall keep pace with any city in the Dominion in the mat- ter of a first-class boot and shoe store is evidently the intention of Mr. J. M. Me- Leod. During the past week, while the ‘‘dusty boot eale” has been in progress, the shop was handed over to the painters and carpenters, who effected such @ traas- formation in its interior arrangements that old customers will hardly recognize their surroundings. The counters have been taken away and handsome tables put in A polished floor is anotb«r of the im- provements. The shop has been extended in the rear, and the painting aad papering has been accomplished in very pleasing taste by Messrs. Patk. Burke and W. Ogar. Many electric lights in fancy brackets will make a brilliant illumina- tion at night. Mr. McLeod is doing a suc- cessful business, thoroughly deserved by reacon of the umvarying excellence of the eteck he handles, and aleo in a great meas- ure owing to his liberal and judicious ad- vertising.
