AN OPEN LETTER

Addressed to Cattle Owners —Will

There be Retaliation ?

The principal markets ,both now and in the future, for our surplus beef cattle are the cities of Nova Scotia and New Bruns-~ There is consideratle jealously fel by the cattle feeders those ut the competition they meet

wick of provinces avi from Is- land-bred fat cattle.

Now, isit n-t quite likely they may get their Legislatureto passa law requiring [sland cattle to pass the test before going into the live stock market. They ceriain- ly have good reason for doing #0. The recent discussion inthe House of Com- mons about our Island act brought out the statement from Minister Fishe that out of 400 Island cattle tested,eixteen were found to be diseased, if the test tella the trutb;there are over 200,000 cattle in the province; so according to Minister Fisher our proportion of diseased cattle is about eight thousand. Was it fraud or was ic ignorance which astuated our present local government in passing a law compelling cattle from abroad to be tested on the pretence that we had no disease here?

The truth is,the whole thing is a fraud- ulent echeme of dishonet political parti- zans to give a job to a few Grit*yets’ at the expense of cattle ownere with the inevit- able result that in a very short time we

! shall fiod ourselves bound in slavery’s ; chains by the veterinary surgeons sent

round by the Minister of Agriculture.

He is, without doubt, the instiga‘or of that law; and he appears to plan to make it a lever by which other provinces will pass a similar law. If any readerof Tae Exam- NER is pining for the rule of the “‘vets,” let him glance at the social and domeatic state of the dairymenin Denmark whoarecon- stantly dominered over by the officials“vet” and frequent orders to quarantine or slaughter interferes with his legitimate right to better his circumstancss. Their life in the same building which shelters their cattle with their other surrondings to match, will not be avery charming pros

pect. ap SS semd sLEG When the ‘Tuberculine Test Crusade

was young in Denmark, the ‘*vets” found enly six per cent diseased. But under their

rule as time passed the rate has increased until lately it is reported that forty (40) per cent are diseased

Is not this similar to representations here of only :woauimals last winter, now they say sixteeen; or tothe result of Dr. Mc- Escbern’s supervision at the Dominion Experimental Farm, Ottawa, whose herd several times has been estirely slaughbter- ed by ordera of the “‘vets’’ and the stables disinfected and new cattle purchased, only to meet a similar fate after a brief¢ sojourn at the Governmental stables,under veterin~ ary Supervision.

Now the time hascome when the cattle owners of this province should meet and take a firm stand in defence of their rights, and mest valued property; for we have enemies of a dangerous sort tocontend with —ali the more dangerous because they are hypocrites who pretend to be our friends.

STOCKMAY,

“WARNING’’—A BAD BRIDGE

-

Sir,—The condition of some of the bridges in the First District of Queen’s County is deplorable, and for this reason I wish to draw the attention of the Local Government aud Supervisor McGuigan, through your valuable paper, to two in par~ ticular in Hope River, Lot 22. The first and worst is that io what is known as Mc- Cann’s Hollow. This bridge was repaired) this spring, and the repairs consisted wholly of a few “longers,”-~i+ spruce poles of a diameter of 6 inches being laid lengthwiee, and no earth or clay placed upon taem. The amount of traffic has caused these to roll out of place and the bridge today is vot to be crossed without going around and in fact driving down the steep hills which approach it both ways, A stranger not knowing the condition of it would be subjecting hia horse, vehicle and life to destruction. In fact no better trap could be laid for innocent persons to rush blindfolded to their doom. The next bridge which bas been in nearly as bad a condition is the one near St. Ann’s echoo!- house. This one has contained a broken plank in the horee track for the last month; and now ia goingto Lot 21, we find Granville bridge in such a condition that words can hardly describe it. The only satisfaction we can get from our supervisors is that “Premier Donald has forbidden us to spend a doliar.on any roads or bridges.”

Disastrous Wreck.

Vancouver, B. C., July 17.—News comes from New Zealand of the wreck of the steamer Ohan, which was on a voy~ age from Gray Mouth to Danedin, and the lose of her entire crew of 26 men. The cause of the disaster was over loading of the vessel. She had eight hundred tons of coal in her hold and twenty-three thous- and feet of lumber on deck. It is presum- ed she was over taken by astorm and had her hatch forced open.

| A NEW WEED FOR DISTRIBUTION. |

Srr,—We new weed here how, and what wil It is on the Gove nmen: domain—the public highway —I have not heard of it being anywhere elee. Wi it be stamped out, or will it be distributed under government patron-

have 8

. , 9 be done wilh it?

age: What i: it? The botanical name is rant im, end the local or

common name's Paint Brush and Hawk- weed. It grows from twelve to twenty

inches high, with the leaves all near the ground and spreading. The leaves and stems are covered with fine hairs, which become quite black around the flowers. The flowers arein a bunch at the top and are bright flame-colored. The weed in- creases both by running stems on the ground and by seeds. Noone need mistake it when he sees it.

Dr. James Fletcher, botanist of the Ceutral Experimental Farm says of it : “It isa vigorous grower throwingout many creeping brenches close to the ground, and with its thick foliage crowding out grasses in pastures. lt isa shallow rooted per- ennial which bears clusters ofdeep orange (sienna red) or yellow flowers. The seeds are furnished with copious down by means of which they sre scattered freely by wind. In upland and mountain pastures which cannot be easily ploughed, this plant soon crowds out the grasses,and renders the pastures useless.”

We now want to know if there is any way by which itcan be controlled. —_-Pro- fessor Jones of Vermont says one and a half tons of ealt to the acre will destroy the hawk weed, and not injure the grase. (See Dr. Fletcher’s Report on Weeds.) Anyone can teat this for himself by applying ten ounces of salt to one square yard, or ten pounds to sixteen square yards.

“What is everybody’s business is no- body's busineee.” Every farmer is interest ed in this weed’s being prevented spreading. But whose business isitto attend to it? Evidently the Government’s. It could new be rooted eut ata very small expense —only asmall percentage of the cost it willbe tothe country in a few years, if allowed to spread. It must be attend~ ed to at once,for this year’s seeds wi]! soon be sown, and how far will they spread.

A Young Island Orator

James David Howlett, the eubj ct of our sketch, was born at St. Gvorge’s, King’s county, On February 25, 187%. He was the second son of Mr. and Mra. George Howlett, of Annandale,to which village his parents moved about two years ago. He lett hcme at the age of 17, and went to Gloucester, Mass, He then ship- ped as cabin boy on a mackerel fishing schooner, and was shipwrecked on Cape Cod the third night out from mort. He then worked in » shoe factory iu Everett, Maas., for two years, but feeling «desire to eee home again, he came to the I-land in the spring of 1892 and bad a summers’ fishing. He went to the States again in the fali, and that winter he concluded to educate himself for the Baprtiet ministry. He went tothe high school io Eaerett Mass for one year and tren he went toa Prepartory School in Waterville Me., foriwo years. He entered Colgate Uaiversity three years ago this Septemner and guickly won his way to the top of the lad !er in that Institution. He from the first sbowed superior talents asa public speaker, carrying of several prizes i: suc~ cession, when the University trustees off-r- edtwo prizes forthe test, oration on che Czar’e Peace Proposals, his friends felt confident that he would win. Uuforiun~ ately he took a severe attack of mumps about two weeks before the day chosen for tue trial. But nothing daunted he went into itw.th the usval P. E. Island pluck, and succeeded im capturing the second prize of $40. The speeches were given beforeover LOGO of the leading men aad women of Hamilton N. Y. and at the close the P .E I. boy was highly complimented on his achievements as an orator by both his teachers and his friends. It is with pleasure that Toe Examiner adds the name of James D. Howlett to the long list of succesful Islanders abroad.

The quickest, surest, easiest wayto curethis trouble isto take Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. They are made of refined, concentrated vegetable extracts. Nothing in the least harmful enters into their composition. They hunt down all impurities, and “make them move op.” They are the product of many years’ study and practice.

usual demand for iafor- iroops and special officers going out the Cape was made by Labouchere and Dillon. At last Arnold Foster asked whether the Under-Secretary of War intended answering all these ques- tions regarding the movementof troops, which were evidently put in the interest of the Queen’s enemies. The Governm2it cheers caused a tremendous uproar among the Irish members, and cries of “‘who are these enemies ?” It was some time be fore order was restored, and then the question remained unanswered. Althongh the attitude of Labouchere and Dillon 1s hardly patriotic, the Government policy is obviously to makethe movement of troops as public as possible, since the only hope of averting war depends on conyinc- ing the Boers ofthe Government’s serious intentions,
