It ] : Law 2 Cun sue| does not in any way relieve Mr. Dodd from | the charge of having deliberately violated | Big the law ; for the law was violated, not only | ‘after Mr. Dodd became a member of the Government, but also while Mr. Dodd was ‘ bac yet only a member of the Legislative Council. But the book-keeper says Mr. Dodd knew goods by his firm after he became Provincial Secretary and Treasurer. The book-keeper ‘seems to forget that. the requisition, oF order, for the goods came direct from the Government of which Mr. Dodd was a prominent member. The book-keeper— studiously, or the reverse —makes mention of “ Mr. Morrison’s requisitions.” But Mr. Morrison did not make out the requisitions to Messrs. Dodd & Rogers without the positive orders of the Governinent— of which Mr. Dodd was a prominent member —through the Head of the Department. In at least one instance the requisition was made out in the handwriting of a fellow- member of the Government of which Mr. Dodd was Secretary and Treasurer. It is useless, therefore, to contend that the Gov- ernment was ignorant of the illegal, but mutually profitable, little trade carried on between Messrs. Dodd & Rogers and Mr. Thomas Dodd, the sworn guardian of the public funds, and Mr. W. D, Stewart. they wrong-doing ex-Commissioner of Public) Works. As we before stated, we have no desire to | press wnduly the incontrovertible evidence in these illegal transactions. Let credit be given the statement of the disobedient book keeper. It does net in the slightest degree cifect the culpability of Mr. Dodd and all the rest of the official members of ithe late Government. <P —————— Lecal and Other Ttems.

[sland and New Brunswick, in regard to the Fishery Award, was laid upon the table. The Government of P. E. Island claim that they are entitled to $1,000,000, the amount allowed to Newfoundland After speaking of the importance of the mackerel fisheries within the three-mile limit on the coast of the Island, and con- tending that the witnesses on both sides had proved their great value, the corres- pondence goes on to show that the Provinee had not surrendered its rights when the terns of Union were agreed upon, and that the only question to be considered was, what proportion of the award they were en- titled to. I: is claimed that the ratification of the Washington Treaty, under which the award Was made, was enacted by the Gov- ernment of Prince Edward Island before Confederation, and that the authority to legislate upon their fisheries, vested in the Dominion by the British North American Act, did not imply a right to rent or sell them. The sale or rental of them to the Americans was not, so far as the [sland is concerned, made by the Dominion, and the purchase money or renial paid by the Americans for the right to fish therein for twelve years, has never been assigned away from the Province. The Local Government Go not wish to have their portion expended in the con- struction of public works; bat ask that the amount be funded by the Dominion Gov + ernment, the interest to be paid annually. The New Brunswick correspondence is brief, and merely requests that no ap- Be b take vi until the Local Gc portieumens take piace UNL tae Local Wov- ernment have an opportunity of presenting 1ts claim. med Benim, April.
