\\'lien the niilit.ir_\' authorities, at the outbreak of the
war, is;-‘ued ii wuriiiiig with reference to giving out iiit`oi'-
mation which might be utilized by the Secret Service
Agents of the eueniy, they at the sani-2 time strongly tie-
precated undue iiiteriereiiec with private citizens who.
tlieniselves or their t'oi~bears, iiiay have come from
Austria or Gt-rniaiiy. The tioveriior General in t`ouncil
stated that all la\i'i`ul nit-ails would be taken to protect
these people from 1iiiiit~t'es.<;irj-' aiiiioyaiice, ani called up-
on nil loyal citizeiis to assist them in so doing. \\`etliought
it uiiiiecessiiry to ilrnu' nttcntioii to this Order in Council
as Isiaiiilers have a reputation of being able to live to-
gether in 'pi--.ice and liai‘nion_\' wiiliout being subject to
spy st-ares as perioiiically affect inure populous cities.
lteceiitly, liowi-ver. the spy fever scents to have got on
the iici‘\'i~s of some good citiizens who are now busily cu-
ileri~.'oi'iiig to spot some sei-ret agent of the (lernian gov-
ei'iinietit. 'i`hc modus operandi seems to be to select
an iiirliviiliiiil with ci iianie oi' apparently German origin
and to hint that he is under suspicion on the part of the
local aiitliorities. .\'i-edless to say cruel injustice is done
to iiiiioceiit people by these se-.iiidalous insinuatioiis anti
tiiiiiei~r>~sary pain caused to them and their families. We
should like to assure those good people who are bent on
spy huiitini: that there are absolutely no secret agents of
Britain`s eneniics in Prince Etlwzirtl. lsliintl at the present
tiiue. _-\t the bcgiiiiiing ot' the wiir.thc llcpartnient of the
interior ami the Illilitizi lleparinient of the lloiuinion
Goveriinicut. took the iiecessary steps to as(-ertaiii parti-
culzirs about all people ot' foreign origin in the island.
This iiitorniatiiiii was tluiy supplied and filed, and the
autliorities amply satisfied that no tiiifrieiidly Gernian
siiii-jects or (leriiiaii cniissuries were to be found in
the province. liitertcreiice with a man and his business,
simply beeiiiise of-his Gernian cogiionien, must not be
tolercied for ii nionii-nt. ln tfaiiatla a very considerable
percentage of the populace are of Geriiiiiu descent and
these are not one whit less loyal and patriotic Canailians
than are those wiio can trace their lineage to Britons ot'
the Old Country. -

THE POTATO EMBAROO A
Few honest Prince Edward Islanders will have much
sympathy with the views expressed by an anonymous
writer in ycsterday's Patriot with reference to the embargo
instituted by the United States against Canadian potatoes.-
According to this anonymous meralist it was the Dominion
Government “ who did our farmers the ill turn that caused
an embargo against our potatoes to be declared at Wash-
ington." Even had the Dominion Government denied the
existence of powdery scab in Prince Edward Island, it
would not have helped matters, as the United States
authorities had discovered the disease nt the ports of
entry. The consequence was that the Government sent
result that they verified the report ofthe existence of the
disease here. The United States accordingly prohibited
the importation of our potatoes until we could produce a
clean bill of health. All subsequent action was due
to ii praisewortiiy desire on the part of the Government
to eradicate the disease as speedly as possible. Evidently,
according to the argument of the anonymous correspon-
dent ofthe Patriot, it was the duty of the Dominion Govern-
ment to deny the existence of the disease and attempt to
mislead both the United States and the farmers of this
Island.
orrormuifiiiiifiiddr iioiisi;
We call attention to a notice in today's issue asking
for volunteers to recruit a squadron of Light Horse for
overseas service.
Up to the present time it seems as if the greater pa t
of the cavalry required for the new contingents will be re-
cruited in the Canadian West, where so many mounted
corps have been established.
At the same time we have no doubt that if n squadron
made up principully of volunteers from the 36th P. E.
l. L, ll. under its own officers were offered to the Min-
ister ot' Militia, it would be gladly accepted.
There appears to be an idea in the minds of many citi-
zens that the militia officers have been backward in offer-
ing their services while anxious to have their men volun-
tecr. This is an entirely mistaken idea.
Wcihave seen a letter dutetl Sept. lltli, directed to the
Hon. the Minister of Militia, signed by all the officers of
the 36th P. E. l. L. H. in which thc latter volunteer their
services for overseas or home tlefeiice. \‘Ve have also seen
the letter from the Acting Adjutant Giierai acknowledg-
ing receipt of this offer and stating that thc nuuies of
these officers have been noted.
There is this to be said, however, in this connection,
Those officers who conie forward with a good following of
nien will most assuredly be preferred to those who can
offer their own services only. `
These reniarks no doubt apply equally well to the other
militia units oi' this province.

ARE WE A DECAYIN6 RACE ?
The Germans have no hesitation about calling Britain
a decaying nation. The part played on the field of buttle
by the iiritish soldiers, at least as far as thc Gcriiians
arc concerned, shows that the British Tommy is far from
being decadent. The niartial spirit in the old land, as
shown by the great niinibcrs who are offering their lives
in defence of it proves that the charge is not t.rue there.
But, as far as we Caiiadiniis are concerned, does the
charge of the Germans hold? Are we a decaying race?
The Geriiiaiis claim that only ninrtinl nations who love
war, and are ready to tight and use force to gain their
ends, are the virile ones who, only. can elaini u place
in the suit. This iii its essence is the pagan and barbar-
ous Geriiiaii philosophy. it implies that thc nation which
loves peace and the industrial arts, the nation that puts
up with a wrong rather than call up the horrors of war, is
in ii state of decay.
\\"c know that the German idea is wrong but, till the
same, the facts of history seein to bear them out. iii-
stuiicc after instance could bc quoted to show bow weak
nations who were in the right were overcome by strong
nations who were in the wrong.
We have seen nations who once were powerful iiiarnis
lose their virility and become effeiulnate in their days ot'
prosperity. Rome and Spain were once thc foreniostniili-
tary nations in the world. In war.they were unconquer-
able. But as they became rich they becuiiic iiidolcnt. They
waxed fat, lost their virilty and fell victims to less
civilized nations because they had become corrupt and
loved their ease more than their niauliood. To these dis-
eases of civilization wc may be ready to succumb.
We may have lost that wholesome respect for law that
our fatlicrs had. We pass laws which are too often not
eiiforced, and when enforced every effort is muilc to evade
them. We evade our responsibilities lest wc should givt
offence to thc wrong docr und his friends. lt` confronted
with ati unpleasant tluty wc call tip every pitiful excuse
to justify otir evasion of lt.
'These are all signs of decay and moral bankruptcy. Ii
our fighting blood has become diluted, if we are 'lest
keen to engage in bloody battle than our fathers were
it. is perhaps less to be deplorcd than that we have less
regard for duty and responsibility and law than they had
We must guard against these syinptonis of decadence,
They are serious ami it’ allowed to develop will lead to
national death.
1\t present otir Empire is in death grips with a power-
ftil cncniy and it will require every resource of the Em
pire to bring it through its trial unscathed. Some of these
resources are in our keeping anti it is for us to hand them
over as they may be required, whether they be our lives,
our tlnie. our money or our property. The response al-
ready made to the call shows flint, as n province, we are
not decadent. There are, as elsewhere. those who have
sklrked, and will shirk, their duty, those who know notli-
ing of duty, to whom the word. Empire, has no meaning.
'f`lieir “native land" is so muny acres to be fertilized and
cultivated and cropped, and the proceeds boarded up for
their own personal use. Their presence does not argue de-
cadence, they are only pnriisites.

POTATO PRICES
Sir.-sl do not see why the farnicrs
cannot set a price on their potatoes
and stick by it. According to The
Canadizui Farm, s. very reliable paper,
the market price oi' potatoes in liali-
tux is $2 u barrel, so the middleniaii
could easily pay the farmers 30 rents
per liiislicl and pay their nine cents
freight and wharfnge and still have a
big profit for themselves.
Now as to the demand. Germany
and ireland are two of the greatest
potato-growing countries in the
world, and they are the countries that
hurt the l’.E. Island potato trade to
thc West Indies. These countries
cannot ship potatoes this year on
accouiit of the war, and it is ii well-
knowii fact that the crop in Arvostook
(‘ouiit_v, Maine, wus a failure this year.
and that they arc a poor crop in Nova
Scotia, so the supply will be small
considering the demand.
The t‘nrdigan, Georgetown and
Luuncliiug institute passed u resolu-
tion a few years ago, when potatoes
were 20 cents it bushel, that tlioy
would not ship until they were 25
cents, and in a short time they got
'their price. What they did then they
cuu do again, if they stick together.
Thanking you for space in your
valuable paper, l nm, sir, etc.
