A first-class hotel, to draw handreds and theusands of wealthy cash customers to our stores and livery stables, ought to be established here.

summer shores. and has attracted a considerable volume of summer travel, the protit from which they sec. They are now going to build other first-class hotela; and tourists who would come here, if we possessed the hotel accum- modation which they seck, will go to Cupe Breton or stay in N.va Scotia and New Branswick. From every point of view and upon every consideration we ought to act now and upon the proposition which has been made. There is, we Delieve, some diff-rence cof

opinion as to the sites. Upon this point

as upon others, private opinions and interests cught to give way to the general opinion § and the

public good, No man is justified in with- holding his subscription merely becauss he cannot be assured that the hotel will be placed upon the site that he believes to be the best. Every man my at least feel sat- istied that « really bwi sits will not bo sal- ec‘el ; for Mr. Hall (who ought to be a pretty goo] jadge as to sites) would with- draw his proposition before work was begun if the site were really bad.

As to the other objoction that our sum mer season is short, the following anewer given to the timid ones of Cape Breton by the North Sydney Herald will apply here

“When people talk of the great advantages of Cape Breton as a summer resort, and the necessity of providing »dequate hotel aacon. modation for the host of teurists that would come, once the besuties of our winsome? re treats were made known, it is urged by the timid ones who do not appreciate the great

possibilities of the courtry that the season for eummer visitors is too short. The best «newer to this ia = that

the seasons areas prolonged here as at the resorts in the United States and longer than they are in the Rockier, where large numbers flick every year. The sesson at no seaside resort commences le fore Ju ¥>, and while the Visitors flit homewards at the end of Aagust, in Cape Breton September and October are hoth very enjoyable months. The leng:h of the seeson consquently is no bar to the success of Cape bh. eton as the eummer home of pleasure and health seckers, but rather the reverse,

Seeing that Cape Breton is moving, and that the time is already late, and that Mr. Hall may be expected to withdraw his pro position if action be not forthwith taken, we trust that the committee will at once go to work, and place the cily and province under a real and great ob!igation to them.

The Post Office Again.

An onper has been issued from the Poat Oflice Department that pepers frem the newspaper iffices muat mailed before half-past ten o'clock in the evening It is occasionally impossible all the copies of Tue Examiner before that hour, Our readers will, in fature, therefore, know where the blame lies if their pspers do not promptly reach them. Hitherto the Post- master and the Post Oftice clerks have been very kind and obliging in this regard, and it is hoped that the order will not, on oceasion, absolutely prohibit them from serving the people, as we feel sure they desire to do, We are at some loss for the cause or motive of the order. The Post Office is, apparently, not short of clerks ; nor is it imperative, so iar os we know, that every clerk shall be in bed before eleven o'clock. Ifthe loss of the Post Office thief's stealing had fallen upon the government, we should have supposed that an attempt was to be made to “hedge” But that loss wes

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

Letter from John McLeod & Co

€rr,—In your issue of yesterday Messrs. Prowse Bros. advertise that opposition merchants in the city are sending boys to bay their reefers and putting them in stock and selling them at a profit. Now, Sir, as we are merchants who are selling boys’ reefers, and as such statements are calcal- ated to ir jure our bnsiness, we wish to state that as far as we are concerned Mesere.

Letter from Mr. J. B. McDonald..

€im,—In yesterday's Examiner, Messrs. Prowse Bros. made a general statement in their advertisement that I as one merchant in the clothing business cannot allow to go unchallenged. They say ‘‘opposition mer- chants in this city sre sending boys to buy our reefers and putting them in stock and selling at a profit.” I claim to bay c'oth- ing as cheap as any merchant in the city, and do not require to go to any of my com- petitors to bdy gooda, and Messrs Prowse Bros. must either name their men or stand convicted of stating what is net true.

The Post Office Steal.

£1x,—Some of your een J observe, take quite kindly to the Post Office stealing affiir. Tue Examiner takes the right view of the matter, however, and voices public opinion when it denounces the tardiness of certain « flicials while the stealing was going on, and their unwar- ranted conduct in allowing the culprit to escape when the investigation did take place. Mitche!l’s evidence or confession, the apologists say, would not be taken in a court of law, and hence he was allowed te go Scot free, If this be sound law, then every criminal in the country can go un- punished by simply confessing his guilt. But is it not a fact that under existing law persons charged with crime are not allowed to testify for or against themselves in court, except through their attorney. And be sides, in Mitchell’s case, is there not suffi cient evidence clear of his confession to convict him? What about those letters found in his box! Those letters are now being forwarded to their owners, who are politely informed by the Assistant Post Office Iospector that said letters ‘* have been tampered with by a dishoneet em- ploye, who has been discovered.” Culd comfort thia for those who have been vic- tim'zed by having their letters cut open aud money ex'racted therefrom. Mitchel was not under bonda, wearetold. Sirange that only the dishonest employe was so trusted. Lut how is an is jured public to know whether he wes ot was Lot under bonds. Further light ia required before those who have heen robbed can see that all was done that should have been done tw prevent euch stealing.
