Mr. Dalziel has proved himself to be an ex-~ ceptionally efficient officer, and his cual position as superintendent of water works and street has —so we all thought— been held with advantage to the city. We have not heard thatany work of import. ance hus been neglected, and we know that by having one capable man to oversee al! the works, a considerable amount of money (not for salary alone) has been saved to the city. Mr Dalziel’s salary was $8004 year —$400 being paid by the Sewerage and Water Commissioners and $400 by the City Council.

In the course of a recent speech in the House of Commons the Minister of Militia said : } : « I say without the slightest hesitation | that, other things being equal, in the selection of officers and in the selection of men upon whom favors are to be con- ferred, either by promotion or otherwise, | 1 am prepared, in every case, to give the preference to the friends of my own polit- | ical party.” | We always thought that the militia was maiutained “ by the people for the peo~ But the Liberal Goveroment, it | appears, has established it upon the prio- | ciple of “ by the party for the party.” To be promoted inthe Militia Depart- / ment one must now be, first of all,a sup- | ple.” ‘ porter of the Government, He may be a ' man of pre-eminent ab lity, be may be | brimful of patriotism—but if the ambi- tiovs young offizer is not a Liberal of the Tarte-Laurier school he has no hope og promotion to any p)sition in’ the militia service,—unless there is no Liberal, who doesn’t want the place. This is the plain English of the Government’s militia policy. The disastrous results of the same kind of a policy have repeatediv been made apparent in the States. It is, of covrse, in Canada as in the Statee,designed to hold the party vote. We can only hope th .t t he patriot- ism of the people wil! rise superior to party, and that those who have formu- lated this policy will be votei out at the first opportunity. In the militia, above all other departments of the State, merit should be the test of promotidi, —_—_—X—K_¥_¥_—w —A number of Doukhobors have ieft the Northwest for California, saying that “the country is too cold.” The govern- ment’s Doukhobor investment was a dear one for this country, whether the Dounkho- bors go or stay. . \ &f a ‘ 7 ~ = beat Ey =e fn, . i Pepe ten »# !

The European press, generally ex- presses great indignation at the recent at- tempt upon the life of the Prince of Walee; and the Paris Figaro save that the feeling of apprehension and irritation against the English, which premises to revive feelings of anger and hostility to foreigners, hae been bappily abated. ih Claes Millinery With the seasons following each other so —Having opened up Summerside, the Stanley is sconto go to the Magdalens.
