The following is the crrrespondence

'whiiih has pasted between Premier Arselault and Mayor Wright with re!- erenee tothe distribution of poor re- lief and admission to t-he P. E. Island Infirmary. '

Charlottetown, P. E. I.

May 22nd 1918

Dear Sir,-

ln the past a great deal of money

had been paid towards pauper relief in the City of Charlottetown, includ- ing the support of persons 'sent to the Infirmary and to Falconwood Hospital for the Insane. for the relief of indig- ent persons within the town and also for coal.

Some mutual arragement will have

to he made between the Government and the City Council for the care of

these persons. The town has. certain 1

reasonable to assume that I would use auch tactics witbthe party whom l assisted in power. and your accusa-

tion ia too small for further comment.

am aware. you did not fultll your

obligations to fulfil towards these promise.

in the Infirmary. W

I notice further that you told the

worthy woman, who was .being_kept by the Free Dlspensary. that she was a verv fit person for the Infirmary, but all efforts to have her placed there have proved unsvailing. You have made no application to me to place any such person in the Infirmary. The only application I received' was for a person who was in the Hospital. This application was made by Dr. Mc‘Mlll- an and permission to have this person .placed in the Provincial 'Infirmary was granted .

lf you know of any other case, then

I should say that. as Mayor you have a right to come in to me and tell me of such case. On the whole I consider that your re- marks in reference to my letter, in view of our conversation, were quite npcallsd for and that they were made for one purpose only, and that to try and prejudice the public mind ln the matter.

Hon. A. E. Arsenault.

Premier of P. E. Island

Dear S~ir:--

Yours of the 12th instant received

and contents noted. If you had com- plied with my request when I inter- viewed you, and' made necessary ar- rangements' for those two cases of deserving poor. as you promised to do before going West. enjoying a holiday, and leaving those .poor creatures to the exposure of cold and hunger. things would have been different. _

You informed me on that occasion.

that if I secured the slillliliiilfis Of Rev. Father Maurice and Dr. McMil- lan, you would admit those two into the Infirmary. ,awaiting the Confer- ence with a Committee of the City- Conncll. This was not done. the rea- son why. l presume you know.

That man Campbell in the City Hos-

.pital could have remained where he was until you returned.

I am of opinion that we are

right in assuming that the Hospital for the Insane and' the Infirmary are Public Institutions. maintained out. of the Public Treasury. and it is not the prerogative of our Premier or any Pub- lic Official to close its doors from any deserving poor or insane, when the standard regulations are complied with. '

After my interview with you and

previous to the meeting of the City Council. I received a personal letter from Mr. McCsrey. President of the Anti-Tuherculosos Society and was waited upon twice by Miss DeBlois. relative to those cases. besides these poor creatures coming to my office grsqueutly, pleading for admission to the Ind:-mary. something had to be done ind that at once. resnltlnrs in the ptscing of these two in the Infirm- ary in your absence.

he deepest penetration of the Aus-

trians is west of Meoto on the lower

Piave sector. The enemy, advanclngi along the railway leading to Vr-nice, is about seven and a half miles 'vest of the river. Dealing with tlic f- rudi- tions on the lower Piave. the .\\is- irian official reports say:

“The Foasslta canal has been cross-

ed at some points. The Italians are

staking everything in order to stop

the advance. In narrow stretches pris- oners have been taken from the num- erous units which have been thrown together."

AUSTRIAN LOSSES HORRIBLE

Describing this same battle along

the Foasslta canal the Italian report

says that “every yard of ground was the theatre of epic struggles in which

our own and Allied airplanes look part. bornbarding with 15.000 kilo- grams of bombs and firing tens of thousands of machine gun rounds into the vulnerable targets offered by thc enemy troops forced into narrow space on tho right bank of thc rivcr.

The battle is continuing bittcrly. The

enemy in order to preserve some of the initial advantages gained by him, takes no heed of the losses which our rifle flre and the guns of our airmen have been inflicting in the past ilve days."

From these ofllclal reports it is

apparent that one of the great at- tacks of the war is being fought. out on a narrow strip of low-lying land. part of it very little above sea level. near the Adriatic coast, some scven- teen miles from Venice. That city will go to the victor. The Italians fight so that the "Queen of the Adri- atic," rescued over half a century ago from Austrian tyranny, shall not again pass under the heel of the con- queror. The Austrians. confronted with one of their great failures of war along the Alpine battle line, struggle with desperation to reach and occu- py Venicc_ so that the disaffected population at home may not be able to point tn a complete failure as a reason for overturning the govern- ment. ~»and perhaps even the Hsps- burg dynasty. -

On the greater part of the front

there has been no more than local

actlviliy. ln the region south of Mont- ello t e Austrians tried- to break s way through to the plain near Sovilla and ssy they occupied- several lines of Italian trenches there, but the ital- ians still nrmly hold the river bank immediately to the south of the Mont- ello and~ the enemy makes no real progress, although employing on a narrow front four divisions of storm troops.
