MR. HASZARD’S LETTER

Ir has been suggested that we should publish Mr.Horace Haezard’s letter to the Guardian; and we shali very cheerfully do eo in the course of a day or two. In the meantime we beg to assure Mr. Haezard aud all who think as he doer, that we are strongly in sympathy with the objects he bas in view, ind we believe that they may ere long be attained if only Tae Ex- We admit that eo long as the Dominion Government

AMINER’'S advice be followed.

aod Provincia! Government ave in close partnerehip for the promotion of partisan purposes, they cannot be gained. But we are not wiihout hope that the whole ** business business” combination of Tarte, Laurier, Farquharson & Uo., that now exists, may soon be broken up. This to the in~

is

combination, utterly opposed

| terests of the country, must be obnoxious | to that “strong body of independent opin-

ion” which, the Guardian says, exisis

throughout the Province ; and the first step towerds getting rid of it

is that of the withdrawal of its indeperd- ent support.

PROHIBITION AND PARTY.

ProvinolraL Prohibition cannot and wil! not prohibit more than the Cenuda Tem-~

perance Act ; the Canada Temperance Act is in force in the ihree counties of this Province, and can easily be put into opera- tion in Charlottetown.

In view of these facts, the qnestion is simply whether it is worth while, from a temperance point of view, to put our Legislature to the trouble of passing a Provincial Prohibitory Act and tne Pro- vince to the expense of enforcing euch a law.

We see no party politics in this ques. tion. If the act be passed it willbe passed by representative men of both parties in the Legislature. There are strong Con- servatives and strony Liberals among the temperance workers who favor the passage of a Provincial Prohibitory law. There are strong Conservatives and strong Lib- erals among those who prefer to adhere to the Canada Temperance Act. There is, or at least there ought to be, no party politics in connection with the matter ; and when pointing out one or two reasons why the Canada Temperance Act— which bas_euccessfully run the guantiet of the courte—should be enforced throughout the whole of this Province and the pas- sage of a Provincial Prohititory law post- poned —until, at least, it has beeu tested in

Manitoba—we had no thought of party. We merely sugzested one or two points for

thought and discussion onthe part cf temperance men sincerely desiring to ac iu the irterests of temperance.

But we are told by the Guardian that * the attitade of Tae Examiner is a diss tinct weakness to its party,” and that the temperance people have nothing to hope from the party which Tue HZxaminer supports. This, we humbly submit, is nensense. As to temperance Tue Ex- AMINKER has never professed to speak for ite party either individually or collective- ly ; andif its suggestions and arguments in that regard are not considered good, they will, ef course, have no weight with sensible temperance men, whether im @rout of the Jiiberal Conservative party.

The readiness of the Guardian to raive a party ery about a nowu-party question sug: geste that ite ewn motives are not wholly pure as to temperance. There is a shrewd suspicien abroad that this demand for

Tae NaryonaL Macazivg.--The Na- tional Magazine for April comes to band ftlled to overflowing with good things. It is well worch the consideration of anyone who desires bright, snappy fiction and the questicns of the bour presented in clear _ forcible language. Editor Chapplé gives an excellent description of a cabinet day at the White House in hi: “Affaire at Washington” with vivid word pictures of the men who are pow promin- ent on the stage ofaction. A _ valuable and timely feature is a symposium by eight leading editors onthe question, “ Sball we Retain the Philippines ?” Editorial opinion in every quarter ot the country is represented in this article, and it cannot fail to be of interest in view of the light it sheds on a question of co much importance to our American cousins, Other articles of much interest are entitled ** Uncensored News from th+ Transvaal,” and “ Thrcugh U.kwuown Regions of Alaska.” The fiction is al]! t good, and the regular depar!ments are al!
