Charlottetown, May 21, 1885. > ‘LEYTERS 10 THE EDITOR. Oe | Extraordinary Unanimity. Sir,--For the last six oonthsa the ‘‘as- 'sembled wisdom” at Uttawa have been dis- cussing resolutions and amendments, making ‘laws and uumaking them, besides doing ‘sundry other things which were warmly ‘applauded by some, and sharply criticized ‘by others. All through the long session till ‘almost its very close, everything which the Government side of the Hous? attempted to 'do was opposed by the Opposition in speeches loud and long. At one time party spirit ran mad, and it Jooked as though the cloture would have to be resorted to. Mr. Blake philosophized, Mr, Miils taiked pre- lcedent and English history, Mr. Casey iphizzed, Mr. Davies frothed and foamed, while the Government supporters— many of ithem at least—lay back in their seats, }an- 'guidly resigning themselves to their fate. \This state of affairs became at Jaat lextremely mosotonous, Cricket matches |wore started to while away the hours, and i'then_it seemed as though the war spirit im | the House, would be considerably mollified iby the friendly contesis that were to take | place on the grounds in front of the Parlia- jment building. But instead of this the wordy ‘onslaught continued inside, while a pugilis- tic feeling occasionally showed itse!f on the grounds outside. And so matters went «cn \from day to day, and from month to month. |The Grits kept on opposing, and the Con- | also with the longest session. session was closing we find a wonderful unavimity takes possession of the whole House—both Grit and Conservative. In- under consideration. suddenly sprung upon the House, for it was known by members of both sides of the House, while the obstruction was going on, that each member would receive an addi- tional allowance. With $500 for each looming in the distance, little wonder Grit orators talked and talked. It is easy seen now why the obstructicnists howled over the Franchise Bill. Next session we may expect the House to sit all the year through. If members are to be paid according to the length of time they spend at Ottawa, there is no nse in fixing any particular sem as sessional allowance, for the session is likely to last from one year’s end to the other. The Senators toc, we understand, are to receive extra pay. bers are to be paid, not in accordance with their usefulness to their constituents, but because they manage to fool away their lime at Ottawa, Senators will expect extra pay of couree—even though they do voie every time in support of the liquor inter- ests of the country. It does seem some- what strange that Grit orators should talk themselves hoarse on other subjects and not havea single word to say against this waste of the people’s money. The members of the English Parliament serve without pay. Not so with our law-makers on this side of the Atlantic. And no one begrudges our members their $1,000 end travelling expenses of 20 cents a mile, but when the amount is inereased beyond that figure, every one but the members themselves has good reason to protest. The writer claims to bea staunch Liberal-Conservative, but he is not so stupidly partizan as to believe that his party can commit no mistakes. He is of opinion—and in this he voices the opinions of thousands throughout the country—that those who accepted the salary grab have not heard the last of it. You, Mr. Editor, in protesting against it, have simply done your duty asa public journalist, and you may rest assured that your remarks are approved of by the tax- payers of this Province, from one end of it to the other. Yours truly, ONE OF THE PEOPLE. July 20, 1885. The Fishery Question. Srrn—The agreement which has lately been made, throwing our waters open to Ameri- can fishermen, for another season, may, it is hoped, lead tv a mutually satisfactory settlement of the Fishery Question. Dut, so great a concession on the part of Canada, though it be attended with most beneficial ‘results, must necessarily be greatly to the disadvantage of that important por- tion of the population of the Do- |minion—the fishermen of the Maritime |Provinces. Being an intelligent as well as industrious people, they are weil laware, that while the American market is | closed to Canadian fish, fishermen from the United States have no right to take hun- | dreds of thousands of dollars worth of fish from our waters without edequate compen- lsation. They do not, however, complain so ‘much of the quantity of fish taken as of the icruel and destructive mode of taking them. | Seining, the only method now common to ithe American mackerel fishermen, is a sys- tom which, if it be ecntinued here, will not only ruin the shore or boat fishing, but re- suit in the complete destruction of ovr most valuable fish. Last year, about the begin- ning of the fishing season, immense schools ’ ; ‘of mackerel made their appearance ihere, coming in st ove place quite, ‘near the shore, Old and experienced fishermen say that they never saw them in greater numbers or more willing to take ‘the hook. Every boat that couid get to ‘the place returned with a full cargo. Th» ‘fishermen along the shores, thinking that os usual, the echools would pass along tho ‘coast, patiently awaited their turn. They were, however, sadly disappointed, for the seining fieet soon put in Not being able to throw their seines effect ; ively in rounded the by shoutivg and splashing, succeeued driving them eff. Turned in their cource, they struck out towards deeper water « ether shores. Now, it is the prevailing opinion among. the fishermen here, that . this action on the part of the American Just as the} creased indemnity to members was brought! The matter was not; And why not? if mem-/ an annesaratr ; ei a@ppeetan c.} the shallow water, they partly sur-| schcols with their boats and, | SINGLE Copies Two Cznrs, VOL. 17--NO. fleet, tegether with the continual chasing and consequent bresking up of the schools during the entire season, was the cause of the almost complete failure of the shore fishing at this place. In view of such facis as these, it is no wonder that the fishing season of 1885 was looked forward to with a degree of pleasure, inasmuch as it was expected that our fish- ery laws would be strictly enforced, and that no foreign poacher would be allowed to fish within the three-mile limit. Such protection.given to our fishermen would, it is generally believed, be far more advan- tageous to them than tho freedom of the American market, for it is quite possibie that the average annualeatch by shore fish- ‘ermen would be doubled, or even trebled, | were the schools jeft unmolested by seiners. But what is the situation thisyear? While a duty of $2 is placed on every barrel of mackerel exported to the Unite? States, American fishermen are allowed all the privileges of previous years. | Now, althongh it is the opinion of the ‘best authorities that the Canadian Govern- :ment has acted wisely in not enforcing our | fishery laws this year, it should be remem- jbered that if amicable relations with the | Americans could be maintained only at the ,expense of our fisuermen, these hard- | working and industrious people shvuld in Some way be remunerated. | Hoping that you will not be backward in giving this matter a share of attention, I remain, Yours traly, REsIDEN’. 2, ; | East Point, July 15, 1885. Candid People. If there is any human being whom it is perfectly proper to loathe and abhor it is the demon who js constantly saying that he is candid and always says what he thinks. As a general thing he does not know how to think, but he imagines he does, and proceeds at once to hold the waterpot of his inane vaporings over your head and sprinkle you until you feel like a patch of noxious weeds. It is a curious fact that the wild animal known as the candid man i: never able to see your good qualities, but he snaps at your bad ones like a hungry trout ata fly. He locks you all over with his critical ‘microscope, and if there is something good |in your life does he take it gently in his ‘hands, hold it up to the sunshine, turn it ‘round to get a better view, and put it back in its place with the remark, ‘Shat’s worth \having, avd I’m glad you have it; try and | get some more of the same kind?’ Never. |We say it very omphatically, Never! He ‘is not candid in that way. But let him ;catch a glimpse of a fib, and he will chase lit as a weasel does a rat, and when he 'has caught it, he will hold it up with an air of triumph, as though he had no other basi- ness in life than to hunt for such things, and then deliver a forty-minute discourse on the ultimate destination of people who tells fibs—it is called shool in the revised version—oend end by saying with an air of deprecation, I’m candid and always say what I think. In nine cases out of ten candor is only another name for unspeakable meanness and smallness of soul, and in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred it ought to be rigor- ously suppresecd. i - aa- She Heeded Not the Warning. Her mother told ber not to marry until she thought she was able to support her husband, But she heeded not her gentle mother’s warning. She went and got civilly contracted to a man who was a fine, lgng- winced talker, who could sit around and keep a stove warm better than asy one she had ever seen in her life. And then how preficient he was lying in bed snoring on a December morning, while she got up and made the fire, fed the horses, split the wood, swept the floor, boiled the coffee, blackened his boots, mended that hols in his coat, eewed on that button, laid a pipe full of tobacco and some matches alongside of his pillow, and how loving she must have felt toward him when he got up at last, about 10 o'clock, cursed her for meking a noise, and wanted to know why there was no beefeteak and exgs on the table, and why she had net pawned her watch (it was ber dying mother’s gift) in order to give him whiskey money. And when, after three years of this, she left him and went to work asa sewing girl peo- ple spoke of the depravity of a woman who left her husband.— Texas Siftings. _-—- An Hye-Witness. Not long ago one of Barnum’s elephants wes found to be in danger of ivsing his sense of sight. A surgeon who had been called to examine the huge animal declared that if the elephant could be induced to an operation the eye could be saved. Accord- ingly the poor animal was tied down, and some caustic fiuid was dropped into one of his eyes. He roared with pain, for the treatment was cevere. On the following day the eye that had been treated was wuch better, but the surgeon thought he was going to have a terrible time in operating on the othereye. Fancy his sur- prise to find that as soon as the great beast heard his voice he etretched himself on the ground and peecefully submitted to the painful ordeal. The elephant had simply recognized the skill and friendly purpose of his benefactor.—Hartford Post. —2eo- —A recent author states that the literal meaning of the word ‘*‘ Mahdi” is not, as the newspapers generally assert, ‘* he who \leads”"—a mesning more in consonance with Kuropean ideas—but ‘She who is lead.” The fundamental idea of Ismaliem is the ineapebilily of man to guide himself, lio find the truth, the right path; and that -lto ignorant men God sends now and again |His propiseis, men whom He has incpired jwith kpowledge, and to whom He has ‘revealed what ought to be done. a Ba Ce iM lla A i a i
