THE DAiZY EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETOWN, OCTOBER 27 (89s,

THE DAILY EXAMINER

OCTOBER 27, L899.

WHY THE DEBT INCREASED.

Tue Patriot has an article under this heading which is remarkable for what it does not contain. There is not a word in it about the promise of the Liberals to makeends meet, or about the imposition of taxes, or about the excessive expendi tures in election years, or about the con~ tinuous expenditures of the public money in the past nine years for the purpose of strengthening the Liberal vote. Special attention is however directed to the fact that there has been an increase in the cost of Education. But the Patriot does not say that this expense has been incurred almost wholly becaus2 the Liberals have made tthe educational department a@ part of their political machine. ‘here has not been an appreciable increase in the number of scholars taught, and there has not been any improvement in the education afforded. Consequently the increased debt is no! ‘nstifiable on the, ground upon which the

Patriot places it.

A SWIFT TRANSFORMATION.

Tue leading ‘Irish members and others offered strong opposition, in the British House of Commons, to the war prox posals of the Government. Their open avowals of sympathy with the Boers and their reiterated charge that the war was deliberately provoked had aroused the fiercest resentment and hostility among the ministerialists, and the proceedings of friday evening last threatened to terminate

in some violeat outbreak of passion. Both sides were getting rapidly beyond control when Colonel

Kenyon Slaney,a Tory member with a

record of conepicuous bravery on the field of battle, rose and io a few brief, simple words,spoken with profouad emotion pray- ed for a truce to contention for that night out of respectto the deal and dying Eng~ lishment Irishmen and Scotchmen lying on the battlefield, as wellas their gallan

The effect was instantaneous. The clamor was stilled, and Mr. Dillion, ac» knowledgeiag the manly epirit of Colonel Slaney’s speech,which recognized the valor of England’s foes, appealed tothe Irish members to fallin with the suggestion. Then Arthur Balfour acknowledged the generous attitude of the Irishmen and read telegram announcing that General Symons, to whose gallactry the British success was due, was mortally wounded. The whole money for the war was then voted, and witnout further dis-

foes.

cussion the House adjourned. The swif; transformation from angry tumult and

| appareat!y irreconcilab'e bitterness to sol~ |

calm and mutual forbearance was

indescribably affecting ani dramacic.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—The Co-operative Farmer notes the fact tnat horses are being imported from Montreal in considerable numbers by W. S. McKie, of Charlotietowao, and adds that he is selling them at St. Joho, Monctoo and ocher points, at prices which should pay our farmers to grow colts

—he imports Of Canadian buiter into Great Britain show a growth that will be very gratifying tothe people of this country. Inthe moath of August, 1897, 10,888 cwt.of butter was sent from Car- ada; in the same month, 1898, 15,736 cwt., and in August of this year 60,957 cwt.

ESTEEMED EXCHANGES

Canadian Grocer: Success in business is always the resultofclese attention and untiring industry, says an exchange ; but itmust not be torgotten that conditions have greatly changed in recent years and the process of evolution is still going on. Itis only by keeping abreast with the times that success can be assured,

It is Easy to Love

Your neighbor as yourself when your neighbor isa pretty gir!. It is just as easy to cure yourselfof Catarrh,Bronchitis or Asthma, if you use Catarrhozoue, the

new medicated air treatment for all dis~ eases of the nasal and _ respiratory parsages caused by germ ife

Catarrhozone cures by inhalation without danger or risk to the sufferer. It goes wherever air can go and never fails to reach the affected parts. This is why it excels treatments requiring the vee of sprays, douches, powders, ointments, &c. which cannot reach the seat of the disease and are therefore useless.

BUrrE? AND CHEESE

Montreal Market Dull—Advice to Gaeese Makers.

The cheese market in Montreal, accord~ idg to the Montreal Star, keeps gradually Jeclining, although the situation appears to call for firmness. Quotations are more or leas nominal, western cheese being 11} to [ihc and the Quebec product from 10} to 10jc. The butter market is dull, the quotation ranging from 20 to 264c¢ for he finest box creamery and 194 to 20c for wood to fine. Western dairy is worth 16 to l7c.

The Mootreal Butter and Cheese As~ eociation is sending out a eircular advising mapufacturers throughout Canada to dis~ continue the making of cheese at the eod of October. It is pointed out that should any large quantity of November and De- cember cheese be made it wonld react in an equally unfavorable manner on the mar- ket, as that produced by the manufacture of April or fodder cheese. The associa~ tion believe,that it is strongly in the inter- est of the producers to on!y make cheese during theee months most suitable for the production of the highest grade, and have no doubt that the nett returns will be larger, and the character of tho goods stand higher, if the advice of the associa- tion is followed in this matter, and are

much higher prices for their product next season if this recommendation is ado pted

OATS AND POTATOES.

Liberal Potato Crop in the United States and Canada.

Ia Toronto oats are reported quiet and easier at 27 cents for white east, 25 to 253 cents for mixed west and 264 for white west,

A tiberal potato [crop in sight, accord~ ing tothe financial report of New England Homestead. This says that under the stimulus of high prices last winter and

spring, farmers increased their area to nearly 2,000,000 acres, giv- ing a crop of about

242,000,000 bushels, or the heaviest since 1896, when the acreage was a little smaller but the average rate of yieid per acre somewhat higher. The average yield per acre in 1899 was 81 bushels, compared with 73 bushels in 1898, 64 bus. in 1897,86 in 1896. Tke total crop of 1898 was 204,- 000900 bushels and in 1897 it was 174,~ 000000 busbels.

Io Canada and the Maritime Provinces, farmers are harvesting a fair crop. Nearly sight,

an average European crop is in the yield being Somewhat useven. While

the crop asa whol@is a Jiberal one, this authority conclude; there is no reason to sacrifice siock by forcing it upon an ua- willing market, wherever growers are so situated as to properly store,

Company OF ENGLAND ~

This Company is prepared to take Fire Risks on Property in Prince Edward I[s- land at very moderate Rates of Premium. - Persons having propety to insure will find it very much to their advantage to apply to Whe undersigned for quotations ot Raies.— Unsernpulous Agents are en- deavoring to pursuade persons from in- suring iu the “Lancashire” by circulating a report that the company never pays its Losses.—This gives us the opportunity of stating that duringtue Twenty~Five Yeara in which the **Lancashire” has been oper- ating in the Maritime Provinces it has never had a Law Swit therein, and further more that on the occasion of the Great Fire of 1877 in St Joho N. B. the “Lan- cashire” was the first Company to com~ plete payment of its Losses, baving paid, through us, nearly Half a Million of Dol- larsin Claims, within 28 days after the Fire. (See St. John Daily Telegraph, 19th July, 1877.)

The only « utstandisng Losses which we have in our books are for Fires occuring within the last four weeke; and which will ‘eall paid before 24th inst.

It is :o ke regretted that the representa~ tiveot any Company sbould consider it necessary to resortto inaccurate state- men's in the hope of being able to retain his business at rates higher than those which the “Lancashire is prepared to charge.
