every respectable Liberal and Conserva-
tive newspaper in Canada with_but very
few exceptions of which the_Patriot is one,
and its claims to respectability are badly
smirched by its yestei°day’s effort. More-_
over, the Guai'dian’s a_ttit_ude has been am-
ply justified by the civilian vote in every
province in Canada except Quebec _and
Prince Edward Island and by the soldiers’
_vote in every province including our own.
Our conteniporary’s _statement that
“Mr. Sinclair was the choice of the people
of his native country and had a ma__]oi'it_y
of over eight hundred over Mr. Martin, ’ is
not according to fact. He had a bare ma-
jority of four votes, for the soldiers who
voted against him in Canada, France and
England are also electors of Queens Coun-
ty, the Patriot’s allegation to the contrary
notwithstanding.

' .__-Withsuch appeals as these to the cre-
_dulity and the _ignorance of men and wo-
,u|é'i'l,"party-mad politicians, male and fe-
iiidlc and the Patriot as their mouthpiece,
iiiicceeded in deceiving the majority of our
stigma on our province. What would the
Patriot call it?
 _yhat has the Patriot to say of Colonel
Da _son’s admission that the Guardian’s
was the right policy and that it
and the Ein ire had- the Patriot’-s policy
to abandon the struggle against military,
autocracy, the American democracy arei
taking it up. This, the Prime Minister’s
phrase, is the most momentous fact of the-
year. It is the substitution of a highly'
skilled, scientifically organized, and en-
lightened nation, for one which though
Weil _d have been a serious blow to Canada- great hearted and valliant has always
been the worst organized state in Europe.
But America is not yet ready for the fig t,
ther than Port Elgin, but it is hoped that
the New Brunswick Company will see tlleii
way clear to cover the gap.
The Premier while in Ottawa recently
had a conference with Premi-er _Foster of-
New Brunswick and the latter promised
his cordial co-operation in order to have
the matter brought to a successful con-
clusion.
_ While on this question it may be re-
mark'e.d that the agreement between the*
Dominion Public Works Departmentand
the Anglo-American Telegraph Co., has
now been signed and will go into effect at
an early date. Under this agreement 2
mutual exchange of business will 'takcl
place between the P.E.I. Telephone Co.l
and the Telegraph Co., and a telegraph
message will be forwarded from the near-
est telegraph oflice to the nearest telephone
office to the person toywhom the message
is intended and be delivered by the Tele-
phone Company.
The Telegraph Company is also about
to rebuild its laid lines, and the work will
be proceeded with as 'expeditiously as
the scarcity of wire and labour will allow.
This is another boon obtained through the
efforts of the Provincial Government and
is one which is certain to be appreciated.
