Should, how-

iiig the application of the telegraph companies relative to it 26 per Cent increase in rates, decide that a read- Iiiistment ot' the rates is necessary, then, the discrimination against Prince Edward Island now existing should' be aboil:-ilied, and the province, in res- pect to rates and service, should be put upon the shine basis as other .parts ot' the Doininidn of Caiitida, with such additional pi-iviieges and advantages as the siibsdiy ipaid and the privilege extended' by the Domin- 'ion Government may warrant.
