THE N~ B ELECTIONS
; The provincial election which takes
'place today in New Brunswick is of
imore than ordinary interest to ot-her
iprovinces because of two special fea-
itures. One of these is that the vot-
'ing today will decide whether pro-
lvincial politics in the sister province
,are to be hereafter run on federal
lparty lines, or to continue as hereto-
§fore in the hands of a coalition of
lboth parties. It is the Conservative
I party that has raised the issue, and if
the opposition wins in the ight it will
be, in its general features, a Conser-
‘vative victory. It will not to quite
‘ the same extent be a Liberal victory
if the Emmerson government is eus-
taincd in the contest, because the gov-
ernment of the day is not fighting a
Liberal battle. They are contending
rather for the co_»tinuance of the
:A coalition, or combination system.
Another feature of the contest which
is of general int :rest is the energy and
zeal with which two leading federal
r politicians have thrown themselves
, into the contest. These are Hon. A.
G. Blair, Minister of Railways and
Hon. George G. Foster, ex-Finance
Minister. They are old-time political
opponents, and each is the leading
man of his party in the province. The
r present local government, though
necessarily changed in its personnel by
the lapse of time,is the same in pur-
pose and general policy as that of
which hir. Blair was the leader from
. 1883 to 1896, when he transferred
the Premiership in order to enter Mr.
Laurier’s cabinet.
terms to the Commons there. He
never sat in the provincial Assembly.
, When Kings County became hostile
he sought and obtained his election
in York, Mr. Bla.ir’s native
county. Mr. Blair was long the
,representative of York in the legis-
llature but was eventually defeated
‘there and found a new seat in Queens,
which he now represents in the Com-
,mons. It can readily be seen that
Mr. Blair would gladly drive Mr.
Foster out of York, and if report
tells truly he has effected a combina-
,tion there which may give the ex-
” Finance l\l'nister much trouble in the
future. B -1-h Mr. Blair and Mr.
Foster hav- been taking an active
part in tim campaign, speaking at
public meetings and from the hust-
‘ ings
Hon. John Costigan has taken the
side of the Emmerson government,
but in a. less dernoustrative way than
his late ministerial colleague and Mr.
Blair. His influence among his Irish
and French co-religionists is large,
however, and no doubt will consider-
ably assist the government in the
French-speaking counties as well as
in the country generally. But pro-

‘ cs.:~l.~.~.~;nimiiig to bv -
A St-. John correspondent of the
Montreal Witness, whose letter shows
a fair acquaintance with New Brun-
swick po1itics,predicts the return of
13 opposition members. This is, how-
ever a more favorable view of the
ministerial chances than is generally
taken. We hope to be able to chron-
icle the result of the election in Mon-
r day’s issue.
The annual report of the Char-
lottetown Board of Trade for 1898 is
the best of the series yet made _pub-
lic. It includes the valuable report
of President Haszard, the names of
the otiicial staff and members of the
Board, and much statistical and other'
information relating to the na.tura.l`
resources, the trade, industry, meteor-
ology, and the attractions of the pro-
vince as a summer resort. The re-
port is embellished with a number of
illustrations giving views in Char-
lottetown and about the Island. Not
the least interesting of these are ar
number of harvest scenes, of the kind
that may make even Manitoba look
to its laurels, Its circulation broad-
cast inight do much to give outsiders
a more appreciative interest in our
province and induce tourists to turn
their steps this way. The report was
printed at the Examiner oliice and is
a. creditable piece of work mechanical-
ly, as in every other respect.
Bishop Perrin, Anglican, of Vic-
toria, B. C., is a. strong advocate of
the enlargement of womcn’s sphere.
During a. recentvisit to Sacramento,
Cal., he thus spoke :
“The city of Victoria. from which I
come, sleepy as it may seem to you.has
upon its school board women who are
doing excellent work. But the school
uoard is not the only field in which wo-
man must labor. I am not going to
draw a startling picture of society. but
if it is to be purged it must be t by the
women. None of ns can- say how far
our individual influences may reach.
How is the'reformeition to be acoomp- l
lished ? By noise ? No---but by the
lives lived as Christian women should
-live them. I can well understand how
the tur'noil of an election may create a
feeling of nausea, but nevertheless the
school board is woma.u’s place. There
are many women teachers in the schools.
and however well meaning men may
be, they cannot attend to the wants of
women teachers as women directors
can. Woman undoubtedly has s. place
on the school `ooards,and even turtherin
politics.”

A mother
ready to sacrifice her-ly
self for her baby. But .
nature docs not often
call for any such sacri-
fice. On the contrary
nature calls upon every
mother to carefully pro-
tect herself and in that
way to protect her baby
During the critical
period when a woman is looking forward to
motherhood, the best protection she can
give to the tender little life which is detpend-
ent upon her own, is to fortify hcrscl _with
the health -bringing “ Favorite Prescrip-
tion” prepared by Dr. R. V. Pierce, chief
consulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel
and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo, N. Y.,
and sold by all dealers in medicines.
All the angers of motherhood and moe!
of its pains and discomforts are entirely
banished by the use of this rare “Prescrip-
tion.” It gives elastic strength and true
healthful vitality to the special organs and
nerve -centres involved in motherhood.
This healthful condition is transmitted to
the baby both by the improved quality of
the mother’s secreted nourishment and by
the child’s increased constitutional vigor.
It is a perfect health protector to them
both. No other medicine was ever devised
by an educated, scientinc, physician for the
express purpose of bringing health and
strength to the special feminine organs. N_o
other re ration v '
p pa e er accomplished this
purpose so scientihcally and eB°ectuaIly.
A more particular description of its re-
markable properties with sr. full accountpf
some surprising cures of female ditiiculties
is given in one chapter of Dr. Pierce’s great
thousand-page illustrated book. “The Peo-
ple’s Common Sense Medical Adviser,”
