RR eC aR ene oT oe =n Tue Dairy Examiner. | DECEMBER 11, 1883. i The Dominion Exhibition Tarre are, of course, two sides to every question; and, though we were hardly prepared to see the opposite side of the question as to the expediency of having the Domivion Exhibition held here next year so forcibly presented by | a correspondent who lives among us, it! is well that the whole matter should be considered and discussed at once; for by so doing we shall be in a better position to meet the objections which may come from the Upper Provinces. That this Province is fairly entitled to participate in the advantages derived from the annual Parliamentary Grant ip aid of Exhibitions is admitted on all sides; sothat we need not urge our indisputable right. Nor are we, even now, in such an isolated position that we cannot send axhibits to Dominion Exhibitions held in other parts of Canada; and, if so, why deem it impessible for other parts of Canada to seud exhibits here? As to “thirty- nine-fortieths” of the people of Canada coming here to see the Exhibition, that is not likely, though we should, of course, be gladto see them! The more the merrier. There will, we trust, be food for all and some to spare! What if we have not sufficient hotel accommo- dation for all who will come; neither had Halifax or St. John, and yet they managed, satisfactorily, to accommodate all. We hear that one hotel keeper has already, himself, guaranteed to provide for the occasicn good board and lodging ino the city for ove thousand persons. Exhibition Build- ings will, of course, be required; aud they can be built. Independently alto- gether of the Domivion Exhibition, we require Exhibition Buildiugs for the Province ; and the sooner we take steps towards obtaining them the better, It an exhibition open to the Dominiou were held here there can be no doubt that a good representation of prime) stock would be brought here; aud,better still, many of the best auimals would | be purchased by our farmers, and so go into the country to improve our herds and flocks, Again the more the people of the| various Provinces see of each other, the | more respect they have for each other; | and as many of our farmers have profited | . : . on 2,8 | materially by attendiug exhibitious held i elsewhere, so, we are convinced, will | the people of the veighboring provinces profit by coming among vs. There are other mutual advantages which would certainly result from a Dominion Exhibition in this Province ; and no doubt they will be enumerated by other correspondents of Tue EXAmmnes. We should like to see the matter well discussed. As to the isolation of this Province, it should be no bar to our being grauted every privilege that is accorded by the general Government to the other Pros vinces of the Coofederation. With our correspondent, we trust that steam communication with the mainland will be discussed by the meeting to be held in Market Hall; and that, while acknowledging what has been done by the Government towards improving the Capes route, we shali again let the Gov- eroment and Parliament know that everything that can, in reason, be done, roust be dove to render communication between this Island and the mainland close, speedy and continuous. — ———ey Our Advertisera.

Se ——— Immigration returns show that the total number of arrivals for the month of November was 9,033, which together with those previously reported gives a grand total to the 30°h of November of 175,966, as against 162,267 for a similar period of last year. Of that number 70 317 passed through Canada en rowte to the United States, against 73,522 for a corresponding period of 1882, leaving a grand total of 105,649 who remained in Canada, or an increase of 16,904 over last year. British Columbia has not yet reported this year and it is expected that this will add at least 15.000. and the month of December per- haps 10.000 which will give a total of over 130,000 arrivals for the year.

P.

We look to the police to carry these instructions out. We are satistied that the culprits will be find such an amount as will act as a warning to the evil doers. —— RAILWAY Notes.—Locomotive No. 9, re- built at the Prince Edward Island Works, was tested by the Mechanical Superintendent— Mr. Unsworth—yesterday and found to be highly satisfactory. Two new box cars and a snow plough were turned out of the car shop to-day. ‘ * * * We learn that eighteen box cars and ten flat cars will be turned out during the winter months at the Railway works, and when these are complet- ed the construction of others will be under- taken. —-@- — Tur market t:-day was very small and poorly stocked.

All present seemed to enjoy them- selves very well, but we thought a Jittle more attention should have been given to arrange- ment of programme before the andien e assembled, Charles Palmer, Erq, presided, and made an exgellent speech, followed by A McKinnon, Esq., who fevored the audience with one of his inimitable Scotch readings. Addresses were delivered by Rev Messrs McLeod and Whitman, interspersed with Sseyme instrumental music. tefreshments were served to the sudience which were highly appreciated —ComM. —_—@——.

One of the horses was injured by a piece of fron blown trom a wheel. The place where the explosion occurred is in a lonely part of the city. Several detectives are working on the case, including the deputy chief constable, but they are very reticent in regard to the aflair, It is the first occurrence of the kind in the city, and the night patrol are instructed to be on the alert and apprehend all suspicious characters. A great many discontented Irish immigrants sent out by the government live in the streets near the scene of the explosion in a state of des- titution; some from the Marquis of Lansdowne’s estate. The detectives are now searching in that neighborhood. There were six passengers in the car, of whom Mrs. Armstrong was badly bruised and her head wes cut by glass; George Cross was wounded in the neck by splinters from the side of the car and was also injur- ed internally; a man, name unknown, re- ceived a severe scalp wound, and the driser was so badly hurt on the head that he had to be carried home, No reason can be given for the act, as there were no pro- minent people in the car. eS SHIP NEWS.
