DUTY OF THE HOUR. to his country as well as to himself and to EVERY MAN OWes a duty his family. There are, indeed, times it which the duty to to that of country is superior all other con siderations. As the greater includes the less, so the welfare of the in dividuals in the country depends upon the welfare of the whole peo ole Consequently the interests of the the country demand cvenerous of individuals, and the service of service is governed only by ts ch KInG TY) at their various circumstances, tale and ability. Now. admitted truths tothe case of Prince let us apply these simple Edward Isiand at the present time. The interests of the Province have in recent years been neglected. Agriculture has not been encour- aged, schools have not been im- proved, roads and bridges in many places, are out of repair ; and all the while public expenditures are increasing and debt is increasing, while the balance of power, in poli- tics. is in the hands of those who are open to the inducements of the whiskey bottle, money, and other | more or less gross forms of bribery. The path that this Province has} been pursuing is the path which leads to financial bankruptcy and political ruin. Now, if ever, the country demands ' in this , on all the service of her best sons : now, ifever, her best sons are in duty. to..subordinate their indi-! bound vidual interests to those of the Pro- | » at large : for if the course be not changed the Provincial ship slra must soon be a wreck upon the rocks of financial and political disaster. We, therefore, hope that no fur- cher time 1 st, and that the present week will see good men and ‘ well taken by Mr. Hughes. i worse. ] BE SUPPLIED?| Tue need of effective representa- | tion for Charlottetown felt in the past eight years. peatedly the interests of Charlotte- town the Legislature, where its representa-. nothing. has been Ke in were over-ridden tives sat and said This became so much a matter of remark that the supporters were outspoken in their Government's strongest protests. Mr. George E. Hughes, | upon one occasion called attention, in a published letter, to a case of gross unfairnes, in which citizens of Charlottetown were the victims. We quote Mr. Hughes’ letter as follows: ‘“In an act to consolidate and amend the several acts incorporating the City of Charlottetown, assented to April 28, 1888, | find the City Council granted power to collect an income tax; also a commercial travellers tax. Now, sir, we find the Provincial Government have scooped both, infull. I would also notice the late tax on electric light and gas companies. These companies do business in Charlotte- town only, and we are obliged by act Parliament to permit them to erect posts and run lines in all parts of our city, We, in fact, put up with all the inconvenience, and the Government scoops the recompense in the shape of tax.’’ Ever yone felt that this ot point was And why was the wrong permitted ? Simply because the city was not effectively represented in the Legislature. —ccncnslli lime. THE RACE CRY. In the course of a private letter to a friend in this city, a gentleman resident in Montreal writes : ‘‘ People here, which ever side they voted, feel it is a very serious thing that Quebec should combine way. If the French combine matters in this way. it will force the English Provinces to do it in the end,—and nothing could be don't care three straws for politics, but this race cry is a serious matter.’ Th’s isan expression of the feel - that has been roused by reason of the success of the Tarte tactics. Mr. Tarte has cause to be hark back and call off kis pack: and he will ineed to be very careful in the fu- ture. In this connection the St hr ..

He’ says that from the day he landed in | Liverpool, all through his tour of Britain, the effects of the | hand. And he adds: He wonders at the indifference with which these conditions are regarded, and adds, “Tf England to destruction in the next century it will not be because of outside wars or dangers from other nations, but because she has drunk herself into destruction.’ Accorving to a despatch from Berlin the Kaiser has just given further evidence of his reeard for Baron von Kettler, who was assas- sinated in China, by inviting the Ambassador's widow to Germany, in order that he may express to her his keen sense not only of her hus- band's services, but also of the cour- age and gallantry which she herself displayed throughout the terrible siege of the legations. Itis expect- ed that the Kaiser, besides invest ing the widowed Baroness with the Order of Louise, of which the Em- press is Grand Mistress, will offer her a pension, and create her a Countess! in her own right. It is probable that the Baroness will also be offered the title of Lady-in-Waiting to the Em-. press. She is certain to be over- | whelmed by Court, Government, society and the people, with tokens of kindly sympathy and regard. [x the course of an editorial refer- ence to the retirement of Sir Charles Tupper, the Courant, of | Hartford, Conn, says:—*‘Sir Charles was sitting in the Nova Scotia Leg-| islative Assembly before most of the Canadians who voted last Wednes- |! FOES Boe S day were born. He was one of the promoters of the Char- lottetown conference of 1864 which prepared the way for Cana- dian Confederation. He wasa mem- ber of the first House of Commons at Ottawa. He has held half a dozen Ministerial pertfolios, has served on nearly as many interna- tional commissions, has been High Commissioner in London, and (once) Prime Minister. ‘Next to Sir John Macdonald,’ a Montreal con-} temporary, ‘he is Canada’s greatest gift to the galaxy of IE-mpire-build- ers whose dreams of forty and twen- Savs ty years ago are becoming the ac- complished facts of today.’ ’’ This tri- | bute from acrossthe border is one from many.Here is another frcm the Rochester Post : ‘‘ In the retirement of Sir Charles Tupper, the leader of the t of Canada, the political life of the Dominion will lose [a commanding figure.
