The best proof that eee ne ett Girne J MINARD’S LINIMENT THE PROVINCIAL SITUATION. has extraordinary merits, amd is in eee good repute with the public, is, that = oe t re IS EXTENSIVELY IMITAT A QvuarrTer of the new year has all but) ED.

We are still in ignorance This neice is necessary, as injurieas and concerning the amounts of the revenue, ex- ds \gerous imitations, called Warrs Lin1-| penditure and deficit of 1899.

now either neglect their personal interests at the beginning of the sowing and plant. ing season, or neglect the interests of the Province. This is point number twe.

In going on with the public business witheut the authorization ef the people’s representatiyes, the present government is agting according tothe principles upon which it was formed, Premier F’arquhar- eon is the third ofa eeries. Mr. Fred Petere, Q. C., ;was elected to be Premier upon the clear understanding that his government would bring about an arbi- tration by means of which Prince Edward Island should receive at least a million of dollars from the exchequer of Canada.

wards the construction of whieh, for the purposes of ordinary traffic, the Province is to pay $400,000—were not at once accepted as located by the railway officials of the Dominion Govern. ment, it would not, probably, be conetruet~

ed at all. Here we have peint number feur.

ae beyond the peradven tur2 of a doubt that the Govern-

ment, so constructed, does not enjoy the confidenceof the people. Results of bye-elections in Tignish, St. Eleanor’s and Summerside, New London, Belfast and Murray Harbor prove this fact. In this we bave the fifth point to be noted: Fort Augustus district continues to be practically unrepresented. Mr. Wise resigned his seat in the legislature, con- ditionally, several weeks ago; but nortep has yet been taken towards an eleetion in the secend district of Queens. Pineau, toe, has been spirited away by means of influences that are corruptand in the highest degree dishonerable. In these facts we have the sixth point to be noted, By reference to these facts, the pres- ept political situation of Prince Edward Island may now be easily understood. We ask for them the attention of a people jesleus of their political independence, enjoying (theoretically) the blessings of res ponsible Government, anxious that the province shal] be well governed, desiring that the public businees shall be promptly econemically and honorably transacted, We ask, particularly, that the old Lib- erals, those who fought for free, represen~ tative, responsible Government, shall make a note of the facts here enumerated.

THE BOER WAR,

_——

Tue news of General Joubert’s death, received with some incredulity yesterday, is confirmed today. A less determined, stolid and stubborn race thaa the Boers would see in this last calamity a sign tha! the further prosecution of the war by them was wrong and useless ; and would save additional loss of life by eurrender- ing. With Joubert in his grave, Cronje in a British prison, and their forces con- siderably disorganized ,the Boers’ hopes of success must have vanished in thin eir. It is not to be supposed that either Kruger or Botha—beoth of whom are named as likely to succeed to. the chief command— will conquer after Cronje and Joubert, cupable and tried warriore, hove been beaten. Of course there yet remains some of the European officers who pracs tically planned and directed in a general way the Boer operations. Much as we desire peace, must corfess to

& wholeeome desire that Lord Roberts may ye have acrack «at Villebois, It would bea cause for truly Briti-h grati- fication and pleasure to have that fel ow sent to keep company with Albrecht and the rest. But Lord Roberts contivnes to play a waiting game, clearing up and settling metters as far as be bas gone. The wiedem of this course .is evident — particularly while the British are waiting for the turn of events in the East, It Mafeking were but out of danger, he British might, for eome time, resi entirely content, in respect to the Boers.

MILLS vs. MILLS.

Senator Ferrevson eeems to have brought the Minister of Justice to tbe ringbolt of bis former argument on the right of Parliameat to legislate for a r- distribution of seata ia the House of Cow- mons—except after the takiog of the de- cennial cemsus, as the coastitution pro- vides—in fine style. In i892 Mr. Mille brought al] his constitutional knowledge and critical acuinea to bear upcm the question, and decided that the Parliament had no power te redistribute seats except by virtue of the clause 51 in the Act of the anien. Mr. Millsthen coatended that there was ne power to rearrange consti- tuencies except as given by thie clause, and the clause directs when and how the re- arrangements shall take place. It is to be done directly after the ceasus is taken and at no ether time. Now, this same Mr. Mills, as Minister of Justice, in the Tarte-Laurier cabinet is striving to per- suade the Senate to paes a distribution bill in the yeer before whieh the decennial census will be taken! Liberal membere of the * Tarte-Laurier Cabinet, like a certain claes ef perron*, should have good memories.

—On Tuesday morning the Minto left Georgetown at 7 e’clock a. m. and the Stanley lft Charlottetown at the same hour. The Stanley arrived at Pictou jast fifteen minutes later (han the Minto.

--It is stated that Mesere Siegel, Coop- er & Company, of New York and Chice~ go, proprietors of the great departmental stores in those cities, are the parties interested in the erection of the buildings now being constructed im Montreal avd that they will open a monster depar!mentel store in that city.

)

ANOTHER CHANGE. Tee resiguation of Mr. Pottinger as General Manager of the Intercolonial Railway is reported, and it is said that be will be succeeded by Mr. Mitchell of the Drammond Counties Railway. It is be- lieved the report is well founded, though denied in some quarters, Thirty Que bec members of Parliament signed a “Round Robic,” some months ago, dea mandirg the dismissal of Mr. Pottinyer and two other railway officials at Moncton, threatening to revolt unless their demand was complied with. It is understocd that the Government has eonsented, in view of the nearness of the general elec- tion, to let Pottinger go. The fate of the other two ia etill in doubt. But when the Rouges of Quebec put down their foot, somebody must give way.

SUMMER CONNECTIONS.

THe managers of our railways aod steamships are soon to make their summer arrangements. We siacerely hope that the four or five hour stoppage at Pictou on the way to Halifax, etc., may be avoided this year, and that heed will be taken of Mr. F. G. Bovyer’s suggestions regarding the transportation of stock, ete. Perhaps the Courcils ef the Charlottetown, Summerside and Souris Boards of Trade will use their influence to obtain close connections between this Province and the mainland for both passengers and freight.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

——

—It is reported in French-Canadian circles that Sir Wilfrid Laurier is likely to be raised :o the Britieh peerage ae a re- ward for the services (ic) he has rend- ered in respectto the South African war. How \true ‘it is ‘that some men “ have greatness thrust.upon them !”

—Itis eaid that Dr. Saunders and Pro-~ fessor Robertson disagree upon some points. But they are in complete agree- ment as to the manurial value of clover. Dr. Saunders faye that it will pay to buy clover seed and sow itin all the lacd, The Alsike variety ie, he says, cae beston moist. land. :

—In the Presbyterian College Journal for March, we note, with a great deal of pleasure, an exceedingly well written paper by Mr. J. A. Nicboleon, M.A Principal of Westmount Academy, bion - treal, son of our esteemed friend, James Nicholson, Esq., of Eldon. The paper ie on “Tie Merchant of Venice,’ of which it 1s proof of careful study and a nice appreciztior,

most unkealthy one Canada bas known fora good many years. Doctors and drug- gists have been busy day and night pre- scribing and compeunding medicines for their patients.

Strange to say, however, there has been no decrease, but rather, a marked increase in the numver of sick people.

No pereon whose blood is thin, watery, and weak can suceessfully withstand the javages Of spring.

fbe blood must be rich and red and nourishing in order that the various or- gaas of the body may be properly fed and strengthened, and enabled to perform their work properly.

Now, in order that the blood may be rich, red and nourishing, tbe food we eat must be thoroughly digested,just as wheat must be thoroughly ground, tomake good flour.

And, in order that food may be thorcughly digestep, the digestive organs must be ia perfect condition, just as the mill must be in perfect condition to grind the wheat thoroughly.

There is one way to insure the perfect and thorough digestion of our food, and as a result, the proper nourishment of the body, and its power to resist disease. That way is to use Dodd’s Dyspepsia Tablets.

Dodd’s Dyspepsia Tablets digest the food. They do it positively. It is no more possible for Dodd’s Dyspepsia Tab~ lets to fail te digest the food in the stomach, than it ie for heat to melt tnow,

If Dodd’s Dyspepsia Tablets be used, digestion will positively be accomplished. ‘Tue digestive organs will be strengthened and stimulated, and the danger of cos~ tracting disease reduced one hundred per cent.
