A DEFIANCE OF PUBLIC SENTIMENT.
The people of Prince Edward Is-
land hold the proud position of stand-
ing as a c.\mmunity in the front _rank
of the temperance movement.. ThiS
is the banner province of prohibition.
In successive plebiscites they have
affirmed, by majorities more over-
whelming than in any other section of
the Dominion their desire for the
total suppression of the manufacture,
importation and sale of alcoholic
beverages. For some years the entire
province was under the operation of
the Scott Act and at this time in all
of the Island, excepting only the city
the Scott Act is in force. Our people
are well aware of the defects_ of the
present act; it is an imperfect imple-
ment, but because it is the best they
have or can get at present they will
make the best of it.
Kings county is and has long been
under the Scott Act, it having been
,brought into operation there in 1879,
twenty years ago, by a vote of 1.076
for and 59 against. The great ma-
jority of the people there are and
have been in favor of the total ,sup-
pression of the liquor traliic. A. con-
stant warfare has been maintained
against the violators of the law in
Kings and scores of convictions have
been made and penalties imposed.
There can therefore be no question as
to the state of public sentiment in the
country. We therefore claim that
the Scrimgeour warehouse and the,
selection of a Scott Act violator as
agent for the distribution of the lish-
,leries bounty is an o en defiance of
P
the public' sentiment of Kings county,
and of Prince Edward Island. `
We have proceeded on the assump-
tion that the government has been
led somewhat unwillingly into this
mistake. unaware of its gravity. But
no excuse can be made for the contin-
uance of the warehouse, or the con-
tinuance of Scrimgeour as a bounty
officer. Let the scandal be wiped
away, or the government i must take
the full responsibility for a condition
of things that brings the blush of
shame to the cheeks of the better
class of their supporters. '

The Toronto Telegram tells how on
one recent memorable occasion party
lines were wholly obliterated in the
Ontario legislature. “Hon. A. S.
Hardy left to the members to say
whether they would draw full indem-
nity of $600 or draw $600 for this
session less the $250 that was paid
them for the special session last sum-
mer. Party lines were obliterated.
Then, and not till then, the Ontario
legislature rose up in its united might,
put aside party feeling and began to
feel for the full indemnity of $600
without deductions for the $250 paid
on account last summer.”

Kindey Bladder Trouble.
There is no more serious menace to

kidney disorders, and it’s an appealing
fact, but a true one. that four Iifths of

Kong authorities say that in return
they will build. a custom house and
collect the revenues for the Chinese,
guaranteeing an annual increase of
,$200,000 in the opium revenue. They
threaten if the extension is refused to
remove the existing Chinese customs
depots from British territory.
Areport comes from St. Petersburg
that the Tsung Li Yamen or -Chinese'
Foreign Office is about to issue acircular
to the Chinese Envoys stating its determ-
ination net to lease another inch of
territory to any foreign power.

The King ot Siam has issued a decree
to the effect that no children who are
entirely naked will be henceforth allow-
ed to play in the streets ol Bangkok,
and that every person over the age of
ten must be clothed from 'knee to the
neck. It is also made a rule that all
» persons entering the,palacc must wear
socks. Nomcompliance with this order
is to be punished by fine. The decree
insists especially on girls and women
wearingj-ckets, but as this is not the
mode there it is anticipated that there
will ne considerable trouble with the
-fair ones. A policeman is considered
competent to decide when a person i.
in sufficiently clad, or when a child is
over ten years of age. and his judgment
on these points is to be final.
A serious collisionhas taken place be-
tween Bulgarian and Turkish frontier
guards at Kczy-Agob, b»tween Cam-
pcli. on the eastern Roumelia and Arl-
rianople, on the banks of the Toonja,
56 miles south of Campoli. According
ll to a despatch from Sotia, capital of
Bulgaria, the Turks attacked ,a weak
Bulgariamoutpost, but the Bulgarians,
laidedby armed inhabitants, repulsed
their assailauts.atter a four hours’ fight.
. Both sides suffered losses of killed and

says, were seeking to secure a position
