THE GOVERNMENT'S Tuers is going on in our Legislature, under the guidance of the present Govern- ment, the unfolding of the greatest piece of deception that has ever been practised upon a free people by its chosen parlia- mentary representatives. We can safely say that the histories of countries having representative institutions may be search- ed in vain for a parallel for the utter con- tempt shown by the present Local Gov ernment for that portion of the people who last December, by their votes, gave them a new lease of power It has, for some time at least, been the custom in this Province for the Leader of the Government, before an election, to publish a card ontlining the policy of his government. Instead of taking this course Mr. Peters, in the month of September last, called his party in the Qneen’s to meet in convention in the Lyeeum, im this city, to nominate can hi- dates to contest that District, at the approaching election. The convention met, and a large gathering it was, for we are informed that Mr. Peters wrote to almost every man in the District to be on hand, | eo that himself the policy by which his party was to be bound in case he and his friends suc- ceeded in the elections. As a matter ef course, Mr. Peters was nom- inated one of the candidates, and he made a speech which was carefully report- ed by the government official reporter and = =6published = verbatim the gans of the government the Patriot and in or- the Pioneer. This speech was accepted by | every One as a declaration of the policy of the. government, and as far as the govern- | ment candidatee were concerned it furnish- ed the key-note of their canvass. What did Mr. Peters then tell the people on the vital question of taxation? That there may be no mistake, let us quote his own words as reported in the Patriot of the 14th of September last. “It necessary” he declared “thar I should say here that taxes will never be put on Le- | eause they may become ap absolute ne- cessity; but this I do say that they will never be put on until you men are fully consulted and know how they are to be puton. I will tell thing with regard to that tax question. When I appealed last before my constituents I said I would not put on taxes until the people you another were fully consulted about it at an election and at thet time Mr. Ferguson said he would reserve to himself the right to tax. I reserve to myself the right to tax, but I acknowledge this fact that I must con- sult the people of the 3rd District on the matter. far away.” ly intended the to befoo]l people, this declaration of his, if it meant any- | thing,could only be contsrued to mean that the people need not bother themselves about the question of taxation at al! at the elections that were then coming on, and that in any case no tax would be imposed without drt consulting the people of the polls. If this was not his meaning why did he declare that “taxes will never be put on until you men are fully consulted and know how they are to be put on.” Has he carried out his deliberate promise by merely calling a Mount meeting at Stewart of a couple of hundred people of that village and its hood not to fally consult ali the the immediate neighbor and to find out from them how ought to be put on, but cratieally his intention to tax tothe tune of $100,000 at the very first session of the Legislature after the elections. taxes “When I appealed last before stituents I said I would not put on taxes until the people were fully consulted about it at an election,” and then my con- immediately after declaring “I reserve to myself the right to tax, but I acknowledge this fact that I must consult the people of the 3rd District on the matter,” unleas he meauit that his hearers—and by the publication of his speech his hearers became the whole people of the Provice-—-should understand that before his Government would impose & tax the people would be consulted at the polls. Mr. Peters may twist and squirm as much as he pleases, but this de- claration on that occasion on -the question of taxation was ~ accepted | as the declaration of the party of which he was the leader, aud when he spoke of | the:! not taxing without fully consulting the the the tax people and letting them know how taxes were to be put on, coupled with remainder of his promises made at previous election, that he would not until the people were fully consulted about it at an election, no other intelligent or, fair meaning can be given to his words than that he pledged himself to consult the people at the polls before passing any tax act. tion had put any other interpretation on Mr. Peters’ words than the one we have now given, he would be looked upon either as a fool or an opponent, miseontrue whatever the Premier might eay. “I hope that the day of taxation is far off,” says Mr. Peters last September, when looking for votes. “It will be necessary to provide means at once to raise $100,000 by tion,” says Mr. Peters not six months later at Mount Stewart. What happened in thie short interval of time to create the necessity fer such a large amount of taxa- tion. If anyone during the last elec- unfair bound to twist and taxa- the shameful sqeaudering of the public treasure at the elections, for the purpose of influencing votes in favor of the Gov- ment candidates. Mr. Peters knew the tinencial state of the Province as well in | September as in March. In both monthe there were large overdrafts at the banks,and in September hia declaration on the Val Cashmere, Waists for .| upon the people, of thig’ Province.

The Pat- | riot has attenypted to excuse him on the ground that at that time he could have no | idea that the receipts at the Land Office | would be so small for the year as they have torped ut tobe: «Whaterubbish ! Supposing he collected as munch last year asthe previous year, when the big dis- counts were given, he would still havea | deficit ‘of nearly $100,000. Mr. Peters vs knew that the receipte at the Land Office would be small last year. It was ! an election year, and the contest was to | take place in the months when the largest amounts would be expected to be paid in. And the fact of an election going on in these months, coupled with what we know of the use the moneys of this office have have been put to by the present Govern- ment for politicalwand election purposes, would of necessity materially affect the receipts of last year. Mr. Peters knew this well. Yet he saw, fit, at. the beginning of the last election, to tell the people that he hoped the day of taxation was far off. Such an intimation, coming from such a ecurce, was equal to a declaration that the | day of taxation was far off. It is no wonder, therefore, that the people complain of the great deception of which they are now | being made the victims. We have not the least doubt that many of the Districts, re- lying on Mr. Peters’ words as the pledge of his Government, elected supporters of the Government on the policy which Mr. Peters last September procliamed on the tax question. It is not too much to say that $hese-people have been | basely duped. It is a very easy mat- ter, Mr. Peters, after you have obtained | the confidence uf the people by false pre- ; tences, aod by- an-assurané@ WHR you | never intended to carry out, to call to | gether a meeting at Mount Stewart, when | you have for four years put yourself | beyond the power of the people.

We mistake the manhood of | the independent men of this Province, if | it can tolerate such shameful and dishon- est methods in this or any other govern- |} ment. ea-e ore THE STOCK FARM. Tue Stock Farm Commissioners have | issued a report in which is contained the ' following ““memo” of steck on the farm :— 17 Sborthora Cows. — “ Heifers, 2 years old. 6 " " 1 year old. | l .

It is pre-eminent only as a sink for money. insides acaieeeisacetitttil a clicecninmininge A_ KNOCK DOWN BLOW. Tue Guardian argues that the proposed tunnel will not result in higher prices for potatoes, oats and other of our farmers’ coms modities,—that means of continucus com- munication with outside markets, enabling them to take advantage of the highest prices, will not benefit the farmers of this Province, If its contention be right, the Guardian has given the tunnel scheme a knock down blow. Rather let us remain shut off forever, than spend $5,000,000 or $6,000,000 of money and put our farmers’ in # worse position than they are. But the Guardian maintains, the same breath, that land-owners will benefit in immensely as a result of the construction of the tunnel. In this view, it is comfort- ing to know that most of our farmers own the land that they till, and that if they do not receive benefit from the tunnel as farmers, they will asa But this is evidently the reductio ad absurdum. For if the farmers’ products are not made more valuable as a result of tunnel construction, no possibly be added to the lands. A fictitious value might, if is true, as the Guardian predicts, be placed upon them by specula- tors. Butthis would be as short-lived as the fictitious value resulting from our railway construction. It would be like a bubble ready to burst, and afford nothing tangible upon which to levy a tax. To ordinary common-sense honest meu the correctness of this conclusion must be clear. But it is wonderful that political economists who ignore idleness, unthrift, drunkenness, debauchery © and gambling as factors in the production of landowners. renal. value can would not poverty and contend that poverty ean be abolished by taxing the “ unearned incre- ment in land,” cannot see it. ee Eg NOTE AND COMMENTS. —Many persons in this community will regret the death of Mr. Philip R. Blatch, author of the letters of “Joe Mash” and “Neesim Pelto.” Besides a fund of rare humor, Mr. Blatch was possessed of much engenuity and bon homie. —Montreal Gazette: A lot of farmers are demanding that corn be put on the free list. As the farmers appear to be getting everything these days and the citizens nothing, it might not be a bad idea to give them free corn, too. In Chicago, where corn ia free, oats sel] at 32 cents a busbel, whereas in Montreal, where there is a duty on corn, oats are 40 |cents a bushel. Free corn might tend to equalize prices in the two places, which would be a good thing for citizens who keep horses and for Scotchmen who eat porridge. If the farmer wants free corn the tewn will not object. _— —_ SAFE BUSINESS RULES. Business men, in business hours, attend only to-business matters. Social calls are best adapted tothe social circle. Make out loss of time. Let your dealings with a stranger be most carefully considdred, and tried friendship duly’ appreciated. A mean act will soon recoil, and a man of honor will be esteemed. Leave “tricks of trade ” to those whose education was never completed. Treat all with respect, confide in few, wrong na man. Be never -afraid to say no, and always prompt to acknow- ledge and rectify wrong. Leave nothing for to-morrow that should be done to-day. Because a friend is polite, do not think that his time is valueless. Have a place for every thing, and every thing in its place To preserve long friendship, keep a short credit; the way to get credit is to be punctual; the way to preserve it is net to use it mnch. Settle often; have short accounts. Trust no man’s appearances; they are often deceptive, and assumed for the purpose of obtaining credit. Rogues generally drese well, The rich are generally plain mes. Be well. satisfied befare you_give‘a credit that those to whom you give it are safe men to be trusted. A WORD TO CRITICS. Dod't Be Too Censorions When You Rexd the Newspapers. You pick up @ newSpaper,’read a lead- ing article or paragtaph, and see at a glance how the article might be improved by condensation, or by a more skilful arrangement of the facts or in some other way. You notice the paragraph has little point and no sparkle. You, modest reader, think you could give it both point and sparkle if you tried. Perhaps you could, and then, again, perhaps you couldn’t. Something depends on how much time you would have for the work and a good «teal more on how much you -|- know about writinz paragraphs. Perhaps the. man who wrote that paragraph had only a few minutes to do it. Possibly the printers were yelling at him for copy. Perhaps the mail by which he had to send it was closed before the ink on the paragraph was quite dry. If the man who penned the paragraph had been given a day to work at it the work would, per- haps, have been done in first-class, but he had only a few minutes, and that made all the difference in the world. Literary critics, aad some crilics who are quite in- nocent of ary close connection with liter- ature, often say that the writing on most newspapers is poorly done. Without af- firming or denying the truth ef the state- ment, weunay well ask how can any or- dinary editor do high-class literary work and attend to all the other duties that devolve upon him. If the editor had no- thing todo but write a column or two each week, he would be a r editor, in- deed, if he could not write them well; but writing what the public sees is probabhy not come fiftieth part of 4a average editor’s work. ENGLISH ORPHANS, Six,—As you were good enough to put a notice in your paper about the English orphans who are to be brought here in June, may I trespass further on your kindness and ask you to notify a!l those who are desirous of adopting a child that I expect to send the list off next week, so Spplications must be sent in at once; and as Mr. Middiemore, the manager of the Home, requires, in al] cases. a certificate from a minister of religion stating that the applicant is a fit and proper person to be entrusted with the care of a child,I should like such a certificate to accompany each Diagonal Serg fine and All application.
