enclosing a record of the run ot trains Nos, l and 2_<iii1

on the Sackville Branch from Decembei~30 to Janu- G

ary 9. I _ l _ _“‘__‘=__

This record shows almost uninterrupted arri- sm

val and departure on time of these ti'aiiis between B01,

these dates. The exceptions are January 3 when it is ve

explained that “engine No. 419 that was handling *sn-

this train failed causing a delay of two hours and 5°’ ten _minutes;" also on January 5th and 'ith the Sack- Us ville train “was an hour and a half late arriving' at io Cape Tormentine. This was due to the fact that the may me to aggressive action in ferry was two hours and five inintites late arriving' Sli

on the morning of the 5th and two hours and thirty M minutes late on the morning of the 7th." The delay to the ferry on these occasions was caused by the severe ice conditions and--t‘heconsequentfcdifliculty

of docking., On the occasions referred to consider- ,-0, able time was made up by the trains on the Sackville- .tm

Tormentiiie branch. 01'

The expenditure on the streets was exception-

A plank in the United Farmers’ platform is the

abolition of patronage. The Drury Government has announced, through the Attorney-General, that ap- pointments of Crown prosecutors and other legal representatives will not go by political favor, but by merit. The farmers of Middlesex think that in the matter of appointments in their county there should be the guidance of a local committee. The Attorney- General appointed a lady to the registrarship of Mid- dlesex, on representations, apparently, that she had the qualifications, and was next in line. The farmers there are protesting vigorously against this method. They demand that they be consulted as to who shall have the post. They had several names to send in to tho. Attorney-General as recommendations. This _is,_ certainly patronage. The old system was one_ in which the member or defeated candidate belonging] to the pari_v in power had the privilege or respt_»ns_1- hiliiv of noniinatiiitr persons for vacant posts within thc co|islitiicnc_v. llc ti.~1~i:1’l_\‘ i`ollo\vf~d the advice of the local po rt v oi'_ty:iiiizf,:ititiii_ The t'zirinci's of Middle- sex \v:ini' to bv consulted in the saiiie way but tlieyi :irc solidlv in favor of :ilirilisliiiig pati‘oiiage in every
