THE DA VLYEX MINK APRIL Li, 1900 a ee CIME OVER, GENTLEMEN ! ns Trovk who are now in office in thi Prevince having reached their last ditci Mr. Haezard Liberals are anxious that acoalition shou! Horace aud many other be formed. This is a capital idea o: their part; and to accomplish it the way is.clear. They have only to come over and join the present opposition which would, we feel sure, gladly welcome the Mr. Horace effort which assisianze of such men as Haezard ere long, be put forth to rescue this Pre in the must, vince from the downward cvurse which leads to financia! ruin and loss of politica! We | fee] sure—ay ! there are thousands of Lib- independence. Wwe know —thbhat erals who think and feal as Mr. Haezard does. They see that there is absolutely hope or prospect of ment so long as the gentlemen who have not fulfilled and therefore, forfeited the confidence of the electorate remain office. And why should they not come over and strengthen, no im prove their promises have; in and become members of the party which | is now led by the Hon. Daniel Gordon ? | Who willdareto say that the Opposition | leaders are not honest, not capable, not patriotic? They may possibly be lacking in some respects in which such men as : Mr. Horace Haszard are strong ; and, if so, the coniing over of Mr. section of Liberals of which representative, is the more desirable in ¢0 | far as the interests of the Province are | concerned. Then, let them come. We sha!! welcome them; and we have no doub: that their advice and assistance wi!l be | sought inthe inception and development of any scheme of economy and bu-iuess~ | like reform which—aetter the actual! state | of our Proviacial affairs has been made | known—may be deemed to be best calcu- | lated to remedy the eyils that exist. We note that our astute Guardiaa is anxious that we should have a ton-parti- ean, or rather bi-partican, government in this Province—a quasi-independent, flank- movement, turnabout, catch-me-if-you- cen combination, for which it, no doubt, would gladly be the organ and set the tunes. Having in view the resnits in British Coiumbia—which is now in a state of political chaos, with one of the most uoprincipled of political rascals in charge —and in New Brunswick, where the scandals of administration are at least as gross as those of any part of Canada, we do not think that the “discreet” elec- tors of Prince Hdward Island are likely to approve the Guardian’s suggestion. The proper course for Mr. Haszard to pursue, and for all other hon~ est Liberals who are disgusted with pre- Haszard and the he is a with the principles of the British Constitution—is to come over to the Opposition, assist in its councils, and all together make up a strong party, patrioticaliy animated by a sincere de- sire to reform the public evils which exist anc to place our beloved Province in an improved position. The door to this course is wide open. We invite all honest men to come; and, on behalf of the Op- position leaders, we treatment. pDromise ther fair — PP oe ———— —The Mail and Empire remarks that there will be fine soldiers galore ambit< ious to fill the offices and ranks of the new regiment of Irish Guards the Queen bas been pleased to create.

We have no doubt whatever, tbat if drunkenness should increase to any gieat in Charlottetown a majority of the people of Charlottetown will easily be obtained to to vote in the Scott Act.

NOTES AND COMMENTS. —It is reported that the Steam Navi- | gation Company is considering the placing ! | of a steamer on the Chatham, Alberton, ; Sydney route. —The Standard Oii Company has just | paid a quarterly dividend of $2C,000,000. ° jt was to this company that Finance Minister Pielding gave the right to carry ° cilin tank stcamers in Canada. ~A number of people are asking where our inspector of fisheries gets his auther- ity for prohibiting the setting of backlines until the 20:h of April. Perhaps the in- ~pector, will, himeelf, be good enough to supply the information desired. Obituary. At ber home, Glen Roy, March 24th, Mary MacDonald, relict of the late Angus | MacDonald, in the reventy-fifth year of her age. The deceased had been in her usual health previous to the «vening be fore her death, when she complained of not feeling well. Next morning she got up and seemed as well as usual. But an attack of heart disease came on and be- fore noon she passed quietly to her eternal reward. The deceazed wasa most estim- able and kind’y lady, respected by aj] who | knew her, and will be very much missed in the community in which she lived. In her the poor lost a sympathetic and generous friend, ever ready and willing | to assist the needy, in a quiet, unassuming way. She leaves three daughters to mourn their loss, her eldest daughter having died just one month before her. Rev. J. A. MacDonald, ot Hope River, is a brother of the deceased. Aer remains were jaid to rest, beside those of her busband at St. Andrews. R. 1.
