Tue Pioneer argues that the Conserva- tives hived the Liberals in Ontario, in 1882, and therefore it is quite the proper thing toredistribute the Ontario districi s in such fashion that Ottawa, (for instance) shall have one member for 26,000 people and Toronto one ioember for 50,000 ; and Prince County in this Province one mem - ber for 18,000, while King’s County has ane member for 14 000, The Pioneer’s p sition seema to be: “The Tories did wrong in 1282, and con- sequently the Grits are justified in doing wrong in 1899 !” By the way, does it not etrike the aver- age reader that if the redietribution of L482 can onlv be corrected by resort to such transparent rascality as is apparent in the bill of 1899, it was not so very wrong after ull ? The Pioneer’s defense of the Liberal gerrymander in this Province is very lame. “Prioce County” it says,“is, however, de veloping, and such discrepancy is unlikely to exist for long.” Is not King’s County developing, pari passu ? Even if the dis- crepancy ie unlikely to exist for loug, would it not be better and fairer to wait until it has been met, rather than place the Peon ple of King 8 County ata disadvantage in the meantime ? Aa to the Pioneer's justification of going back to ‘County lines, it may apply, perhaps, in some parts of Ontario; but it certainly does not apply to Prince Edward Island.

Sir,—I beg to thaek you for your lea’er on “Cribbing” in Jast Thnreday’s issue, It is high time somethiag was done to check the frightful prevalence of this mean sin in our schools and colleges. “‘Cribber’s” letter of Saturday (whether written in jest or earnest) shows how this matter is looked at by many who practice it. It certainly betokens a very low standard of morality Everybody knows that there 18 an enormous amount of cheating going on, not oaly through the term buat also during the examinations. The pupile make no secret of it, and, as ‘*Cribber” saye, some of the examinerg ehut both eyes aud so encourage it in order that they may be commended for the wonderful success they have with their scho'are. It is very bard on the honest teachers to see others praised for what they know to be conni- vance and roguery, ard it is¢qually hard or harder on honest pupils to see prizes and scholarships taken away from them and certificates gained by unfair means. Those who obtain their teacher’s certificates | by cheating, are forthwith enirusted with the trainiog of our children,—and what {sort of morals can we expect the rising generation to have ander euch training? The present prevalence of cheating is not so much the fault of the punils as of those who take charge of the examina- tious. Any examiner who has eyes san check untairnsss almost absolutely, if be likes; but the examiner who buries hie head in a bookora newspaper simply gays: ‘“Cheatas much as you like, only do me credit by obtaining high marke.” James SIMPSONe ee ee ~Jadging by the timber of intoxicated men seen on the streéts yesterday, it is not yet evident that the Ferquhaveon Licensing ; Law has tesulted in a diminution of drunKeness.
