Nova Scotia Elections. Tue Logislature of Nova Scotia has been dissolved. Nomination of candidates will be made on the 14th Miy, and the election will be held on the 21st. that It is confidently expected the Liberal-Conservatives will score an overwhelming victory, ‘* Re- veal” has lost its charm. The people of t r Nova Scotia are sick of Grit Rule. Three hundred thousand dollarsare to be borrowed, nominally for the improvement of roads, really for the purpose of bribing the con- stituencies. But the prospects are that this dodge will avail nothing. A change of Government is a ‘“‘felt want” in Nova Scotia; and a change the people will prob- ably make. It is pleasing to note that Lib- era!l-Conservative candidates are already in the ticld in nearly all the counties. ; *-+arce Votes of Moritgacees. -——- _ ee It is that have been stripped by the House of As- pleasing to note mortgagees sembly of their doubtful right to vote. The fact that a mortyagee could neutralize and virtua ly disfrauchise his mortgagor was ontrageous, The fact that the Registry Office was, on the recurrence of each election, searched by the representatives of the con- tending parties, fur the purpose of finding ont the names of all who had mortgaged their farms and premises, involved an un- justifisble interference with other people's private business. There is nut one good sound reason to be advaoced in favor of veting on mortgages. It 1s anomalous and, we believe, unprecedented. Messrs. B ll, Peters and Farquharson pleaded as in- gemrousiy as they could for its retention. Bat the feeling ofa large majority in the House was against it. We are glad that it has been abolished —--— Se Gee — Notes and Comments. —_—- -[t is pleasing to Jearn that an Exhi- bition Association is being formed at Georget: wa, and that land will be obtained and buildings erected for King’s County Exhibition purposes. We learn that nearly $2,009 have been subscribed, and that a bill for incorporating the company is to be submitted to the Logis’ature. —The convention of working girls which was hell in New York last week, demon- strate! the capacity of this class of young wowen for l «king out for their best in- terest: and for taking sil the necessary steps to promote them The convention was attended by the representatives of a hundred different associations of working girls located in different parts of the coun- try, and papers were read and discussions had on a zreat variety of subjects affecting their welfare. —Inthe House of Assembly this forenoon, Mr. J. R. McLean took occasion to make som2 unwarraatable refl-ctions upon the Commissioner of Crown Linds; whereupon Mr. Shaw qavted from a report of Messrs. Cundal!l, DesBrisay and Shanks, in whith a few of Mr. J. R. MeLean’s transactions with the Land Office were set forth Mr. MeLecn evidently wished that he had not spoken. It was, asthe Hon. Mr. Ferguson remarked, a case in which was exemplitied the truth of the adage that ‘*those who live in giass houses shoulda’t throw stones.” —The Summerside Journal, commenting upon Mr Scrang’s letter, shows that the dis'ance is longer by way of the Capes than by way of Summerside and Pvint du Chene, and adds :— “This is written without the slightest pre- jadice agsinst the Capes route, as it will al- ways have a heavy treffi: of its own without any iaterference with estublished lines, and if a line of steamers is put on the Bay of Fandy in connection wish the Ship Raiiway, it is bound to sscure a very large portion of the greatly increwed traffi: resilting therefrom, and Capes Traverse and Tormentine have no deabt a grand futere before them without prejadice to th» shorter summer lines.” —I{t is usaal for an Opposition to have a party cry or catchword. in some countries it is “ Peotection,” in others ** Free Trade;” sume demand ** Home Rule,” and others eall for ** Rapeal.”” The Opposition ia this Province are content to bandy about the name of ‘* Paddy McQuaid.” Mr. Fargharson brought it up again last even- ing. Mr Peters followed with am ‘‘explana- tion,” in the course of which he took pains to heap insalt upon the Government and Mr. Speaker. We are glad to report that the Speaker did not degrade the high posi- tion he hulds in the House by replying to Mr. Peters.

This deference is net only manifested in tariff matters. [tis munifested on other ques- tions. A few days agoa bill to amend the Steamboat Inspection Act,—one object of which is to provide that an applicant for a license must have been resident in Canada for three years—was brought up. The Opposition objected to it because, forsooth, it would be repugnant to the Americans. Thus, if the Liberals had their way, the Oanadian workingmen would receive no protection at all. He could remain liable to the present severe competition of Ameri- cans, who can come over to Canada with- vut letuor hinderance, while a Canadian cannot be emplvuyed in the United Srates unless he lives there. This fact should be remembered by the workingman, who will certainly have nu reason tu be grateful to Mossrs. Charlton, Davies, Weldon, of St. Johu, El.is and Mitchell, who all joined in the protest against the contemplated pro- tection of our Engineers. Mr. Colby, Lib.- Con., who had charge of the biil, emphati- ea ly refased the »nti-Canadian suggestions of the Oppositionists, and thus the line of policy is again clearly marked between the Gove-nment and Opposition.

Mr. Bellasked the Leader of the Govern- ment whether the Commissioners (and their secretary) appointed to revise and consol- date the laws of this Province, have ren- cered to the Government any account or claim for their services as such Commis- stoners; and if so what is the amount of said accoant or claim ; alse whether the during the year L890, and if so how much ? Hon. Mr. McLeod replied that the amount actually paid Commissioners will be brought down. The account has been rendered, but the Government will not lay it on the table until after it has been ad- justed. House in Committee resumed consider- ation of the bill respecting elections. AFTERNOON SESSION. Mr. H. C. McDonald asked the Commis- sioner of Public Works it it is the intention of the Government to repair the wharf at Little Sands the coming summer. Hon. Me. Bentley said that this wharf would receive the same attention from the Government as the other wharves, Mr. Bell asked the Commissioner of Pub- lic Works whether the Government had received a petition from the inhabitants of Sea Cow Head and Township 26, asking that a road be opened from the Sea Cow Head road to Lower Bedeque schovlhouse, and if so, whether it is the intention of the Government tv open the road during the coming summer. Hon, Mr. Bentley replied that the peti- tion had been recived and would be laid on ‘he table. If the House should approve, the petition will be considered by the Gov- ernment. Mr. Sullivan presented a petition from certain inhabitants of Morell and vicinity, asking for the extension of the telephone tu that vicinity. Mr Richards asked the Commissioner of Pubiic Works what action the Government intend to take with regard to the opening of new roads from Victoria West to the Min Western Road ; also what action the Government intend taking with respect to the opening of a new road from West Devon, Lot 10, towards Beaton’s, by way of West Devon Railway station ; also if it is the intention of the Government to widen a part of the road from McPhee’s Corner, Brae, Heury’s and leading towards Lot 8. Hon. Mr Bentley eaid, in respect to the first question, that he had visited the local- ity while the snow was onthe ground; he would try to visit it again at an early day. The proposed road from Western Road to- wards Beaton’s was under the consideration of the Government. The widening of the road from McPhee’s Curner, Lot 9, was necessary aud wuuld be attended io. Mr. Farquharson asked the Commuission- er of Public Works if it is the intemion of the Government to repair Rocky Pvint Wharf this spring, and when the steamer Southport will be put on the West River and Rocky Point ferries. ; Hon. Mr. Bentley replied that workmen had already begun to repair the wharf, and that the steamer would be running to Rocky Point and West River in the course ot a week or two. House went into Committee to further consider the Bill respecting elections ; and, after some time, progress was reported. EVENING SESSION, Hon. Mr. Yeo asked the Provincial Secretary-Treasurer, &c., to Jay on the table of the House a statement showing al payments made on account of the public service since the 3lst December, 1889, up tu this date,—such statement to show what part of this amount was due up to 3ist December, 1889; also, what amounts are due or owing t» the several departments of the public service up to 18th April, 1890. Hon. Mr. Ferguson said that the state- ment asked for by the hon gentleman would be prepared and laid upon the table at an early day. House, in committee, resumed considera- tion of the bill respecting elections. After some time, progress was reported. Mr. Beli asked a long string of questions in respect to the Department of Public Works. Hon. Mr. Bentley replied that a great deal of the information sought by the hon. gentleman was contained ian the annual re- port of Public Works, and that the rest would be brought down as soon as possible. Joliet Baptists Still Fizhting. UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPT TO ELECI A BOARD OF DEACONS-—-THE CHARLOTTETOWN LET- TER. Joliet, Ill, advices of the 19th say: An- other bitter wrangle took place in_ the lecture-rooms of thee First Baptist Church to-night. The prayer-meeting was convert- ed into an election of deacons to fil the places of those deposed at the annual meeting. The time originally set for this was next Thursday night, but it was thought best to rush matters along and be done. The action was precipitated by the friends of Dr, Whitman. The same _bois- terous scenes were enacted as at the annual meeting. The same acrimony was display- ed. The motion to re-elect the deposed deacons elicited applause which brought the big dog to his feet barking loudly. Deacon Tait moved that the dog be kided, and an altercation between the owner and the moverensued. It was settled by taking the dog out and tying him = at the church entrance. Three of the old deacons were then elected by the raising of the hand. When it was seen that the mauajorily were in favor of De. Whitman, the church constitution re- quiring a three-fourths vote was read, and the entire proceeding was reconsidered, much amid confusion. The vote then proceeded by ballot, and the struggle was continued tilla late hour. There were enough of the doctor’s friends present to give him @ slight majority. © The - proceed- ings of the Charlottetown church finding Dr. Whitman guilty lay in the post, oftice addressed to the old clerk. - The new clerk has ordered the postmaster not to-deliver it to him, and some costly telegraphing be- tween Joliet and ‘Charlottetuwn has been gomg on to-day without avail. The church is bitterly divided. The only way to escape a division of the church, it is thought, is for the pastor to resign, but this, from present indications, he will net do, and the war is likely to preceed till the split actually occurs.

Wall ** Nature” kindly state what errors he wishes submitted to the Natural History Society for correction / F. Baty. Letter From Fred. W. L. Moore. Srr,—Your correspondent “G. E. F.” asks some questions anent a letter on pro- hibition, which you published over my initials. If Mr. **G. E. F.” imagined that he would draw me into an attempt te deal in detail with the whole liquor question, he was mistaken. I will leave that to be done by Parliament. No one man need attempt it, unless he has a mind equal to that of the whole community. As to what I said in my former letter, | think I made it plain enough to be understood by avy. ne not gifted with extraordinary mental powers. What I[ attempted to point out was, shortly, this: Prohibition has had a fair trial, and has proved unworkable. The reason I be- lieve to lie in the fact that it isa departure from the first principle on which all human laws should proceed, namely, that the natural liberty of the individual is to be in- terfered with, only when it is abs lutely necessary to do so, in order to protect the rights of his fellow men. TT» prohibit the drinking of liquor wvuld have been too gliring an interference in private matters. But the prohibitivnists obtained, indirectly, what they dared not ask for directly. They so worded their law as to forbid, not the drinking, but the sale. This was a mere subterfuge; but it answered their end. The law was intended to, and would, if carried out, make it impossible to obtain liquor for drinking purposes. Stripping it of the cloak under which it stole through Parlia- ment, it is, in effect, a law forbidding the use of intoxicating liquors as a drink. Has the state a right to do this ¢ | Jook upon it as a Englishman’s inalien- able birthright, to be as jealously gaarded as his freedom of conscieuce, and trial by jury, to be governed, as to what he shall eat, drink and wear, by his own opinion, and not by that of his neighbor, or any number of his neigbors. As long as_ his conduct does not interfere with the rights, or prejudice the interests, of others, he can be cailed te account by no man. But, it may be said, the sale of liquor is injurious tothe best interests of society. Whenever people are allowed to have them it is seen that their use is carried tu excess by some; and the evils resulting are such as to warrant their total banishment. This is a very plausible way of escaping a difficulty; and one which has great attractions for philanthropists, But it is illogical; —unless you believe in doing evil that good may come; and that,.in the endeavor to cure a wrong, we may, without scruple, take away aright. It isa poor comfort toa man, on being deprived of his rights, to be told that bis neighbor has been misbehaving himself. | Yet that is the only excuse that can be of- fered for prohibition. We are to be de- prived of a thing, in” itself harmless, and useful, and to which, as such, every citizen has a right, because, forsooth, its abuse by some ill-conditioned people produces social disorders. That is'a punishing of the in- nocent for the guilty. Youur correspondent ‘‘Liberty” has fallen into a mistake commonly made by laymen in quoting from law books. He must re- n.ember that no short, general statement can cover the whole law on any subject. If he will read the context, aud the succeeding chapters, he will see what is meant by a law which. ‘‘restrains a man from doing mischief to his fellow-citizens.” He wbjects to a re-hearing of matters which our ancestors have detinitely settled for us. Itis a pity Mr. Seoit did not ac- cept-that theory, and follow quietly in the track of his fathers, We might then have beep spared the abortion which bears his name’ If legislators were content to Jeave things as they find them, or even to follow closely the line of action marked by those who went befure them, law would be much simpler. But the cry has always been, “reform,” “improve;’ and even sirce Blackstune’s times the changes have been such that his work is now of little value, except for history, and as a statement of the elements of the science. These changes have, fortunately, been for the most part in the direction of a fuller recognition of the principles of natural justice. Sometimesa iaw has contradicted those principles. But whenever this has been the case it has proved difficult or impossible to enforce it, and it has gradually been allowed to drop. This is because man is conscious of a law higher than that of the statute book—the jaw of nature written in his heart; and as often as the former runs counter to the lat- ter, he feels his allegiance to be due to the ordinance which is of divine, rather than to that which is of human, origin. I, therefore, object to the Scott Act on principle. And it is condemned just as strongly by its results. It has failed; not for want of a fair attempt to carry it out; that has been made again and again ; but because it is impossible to enforce such a law against the wil even of a minority. And the evil it has worked has been worse than that it was intended to cure. Former- ly there were restricticus—and proper re- strictiuns—on the tratlic; and they were fairly well ubeyed. Men got drunk then ; now they get poisoned. Boys sometimes managed to drink enough to make them merry ; now they can have all tney will pay for, and of a quality to send them to an early grave. Bars had to be closed at a reasonable -hour, or the pelice heard of it; their hour of closing under the Scott Act is known to those only who frequent them.
