Financial Resdjustment

While the question of improved winter communication is being pressed upon the attention of the federal gov- ernment. the matter of improved finan- cial relations with the Dominion ought not to be overlooked. There does not seem to be the shadow of 3 doubt that this Province has been and is unfairly treated. it may be that this unfair treatment extends to other Provinces as well, but that does not low!!! our hardship.

HABKET HALL.

The ltti-Reformer: Nnnulusxel.

The meeting in the Town Hall Tuesday night was a genuine farce. At eight o'clock the place was well filled by elect- or: of all shades of opinion, who had gathered together a psrently expecting to see more. fun t an anything else. Promptly Al. 8 o'clock His Worship Mayor Haviland called the meeting to order, and su ted the appointment of a chairman. Mr. Philip Large then arose and moved that Archd. Kennedy, Esq., take T the chair. Mr. Kennedy de- clined the honor, and moved in amend- ment thst Mr. Large, as one of the re- quisition.-rs, take the chair. The motion was carried, but Mr. Large was not pre- pared to full in with it. He refused to ascend the forum. A dola of some minutes followed, during wh h the au- dience enjoyed themelves in the usual way. It was evident that the Re uisition was little better than a fraud. ot one of the signers was prepared to assist in organizing the meeting. The audience 1: to feel that these gentlemen were not after all the real movers in the matter. At last Mr. John Bolger arose and placed himself in the chair. The audience ex- pressed their satisfaction in rapturous applause. It was moved that Mr. Mc- Isaac he Il‘cl‘8lJa!'y. Mr. Mclsasc posi- tively declined to act. Another wsit followed,dnring which calls for Bunny Redmond and other well known char- acters were made. The chairman then suggested that the business proceed, and dec __red the meeting open. But it seems ths.t‘no one had anything to say against Reform. None of the gentlemen who signed the requisition could shaw them- se ves, and the Raftpn-.-rs were not 9-- innocent ss to fall into the trap that had been laid. At last somebody srose and, amid clamor and lnughtz r, moved the tdjourtunenr. The chairman arose and was shout to suite the question, when Conn. Mort-is strode forth from the rear end of the ball and mounted the platform. He said he came to hear the views of the candidates in relatl m to It change in thv ward system. He had served the city as councillor for scv.-rm-en years, and tried to do what was for the interest of the city, and he was quite willing that‘ if ths citizens were dissatisfied they should ex ress lllemsel\ es. 1 . ls of motion were then made, and an adjournment seemed iuasineut. when ‘Jenn. Byrne step -d from the crowdin the rent and mac up to the plstform. He apparently knew that it was not to hear the views of the candidates the meeting was called, for he had a neat little speech « f his own all re.dy to de- liver. He was of the opinion that the question of civic reform was uppermost in the present contest. He was nlessed to see the lively interest that was taken in it. He was not desirous of taking part in public tneptlt-gs. As I Couniillor he had to do in managing the affairs of the city. He reviewed the history "I the agitation for s chan,ge of the Ward sys~ tem. As to the col ective vote plan, he did not think it 1-availed anywhere out- side of Summer-3&3, ggd did not think it waswise for Charlottetown tu pdopt a

Too Liberal for M...

Some cler men of this town propose to do a foolislty thing, says the New York Times. Theypropose to discipline two of the best known and most popular - tors of New York-the Rev. Dr. . S. Rainsford, rector of St. Geo e’s parish, and the Rev. Dr. R Huber ewtou, ‘of All Souls’ church. If these disciplinarisus contrive to curb the iudepedencs of these two preachers they will, so to speak, twig several clergyman of lesser note an ability, who also are located in the diocese of New York, pf which the Rev. Dr. Henry C. Potter is bishop. Their offence seems to be too great “ liberality" of views The “ libemlity” of the Rev. Dr Rainsford in inviting ministers of do nomination sother than the Episcopal to occupy his pulpit 3 year ago drew out a Kpltest from_'hts brother cl. rgy,which Dr.

'nsford, however saw lit t - ignore.

In at-ran ‘mg the series of Lenten ser- vices at Ge-arqa’s for the current season‘, Dr. R-timsford went so far as to invite not only non-Episcopalian or “dissenting" clergvnten to participate therein. but it is arleged that he let down the bars of ecclessiasticsl toleration to such an extent as to admit a “ heretic” to the sanctuary and privileges of the Church. Furthermore, Dr. Rainsford took part, in his clerical capacity. in a service at Ply- mouth church, Brooklyn, and for these and kindred ofl'ences against the cations of the. Church it is deemed expsndient that the rcc*or of St. George's should be atlmonished, if not disciplined.

The utterances of the Rev. Dr. R Huber Newton from time to time on topic- of more or less public and religious in terest have been the occasion of apprehen-

ters. The reserved right of Dr. Newton to deliver himself of any opinion, however ultra or advanced, as an indivi lusl is not denied, but it is held by the projectors of the present movement that as long as he continues a clergyman in full and recogn- ized standing in the Episcopal Church his utterances should correspond to the ac- ceptlpd teachings of that communion. e influence of the exam le" of Drs

Newton and R-tinsford is hel to be per- nicious, it is said, particularly in view cf

a Unitarian to:occupy the pulpit of St. George's and preach to the people of that parish on Good Friday. To meet this emergency, to counteract the effect of the doings of the offending clergymen, and to set the seal of disapproval and condemnation on the alleged uncanonical and uncleric-ll practices complained of; 81 protest has been prepared which is now bein sigyped by the clergy of the diocese of ew orlt. « t

When the document shall have been fully signed it is proposed to give it ex- tensive publicity. with 5 view not only to making nowu the position of the Church and of the remainder of the clergy in re- lation to the course plllsuctl by Dr. New-

‘ ‘on. . --
