TUESDAY, JANUARY 19. 1915-
A suoossrlon
Mr. E. F. Gaudet of the firm of Arscnault and Gaudet,
Limited, Wellington Station, favors us with a sugg€Bil0ll
that is well worth passing along. It is, that now. as the
merchants generally are taking stock, they lay aside such
goods as they may be reasonably able to spare for the
Belgians. Mr. Gaudet points out that in every 9f°°k't“k1“§
many articles are found which have been slightly shop-
wom or which do not _conform to the latest requirements
of fashion but which. with these apparent defects would
be very acceptable 'to the poor Belgians who are actually
suffering for the want of clothing. If all the merchants
would bear this in mind and lay aside for this purpose
any articles the giving away of which would not impose a
heavy burden upon them, it would inakc an aggregate gift
which would"iie a very considerable addition to the gilt
already made by the province and would certainly be a
most acceptable one to people whose need is great beyond
any conception of ours.
We might add the suggestion,also,as it is not fair to ask
the merchants to bear all this burden. that thc generous
hearted people of the province \vho have not yet done all
they would like to do, make it a point to buy up for this
purpose such goods as will necessarily be sold nt greatly
reduced prices during stock taking. 0\1l` lllefcllallls
would help the cause along and also help reduce their
annual stock taking losses by advertising their stock taking
sales. \Vc commend the suggestion. We who _arc living!
in comfort and security, practically untouched by the war,
either in pocket or personal safety, should not forget that
some millions of our fellow beings have been rellllfrell
within a few months. some of them within a few days,
from affluence and comfort not to poverty but to starvation
and suffering which wc. if we chose. C0\1l<1 ll0lD VCT."

  AN “AXE T0 GRIND”
We admire our Coiiteniporary, The Patriot. in many
respects, but we can hardly approve of its journalistic
ethics. It gives the use of its columns to u correspondent
who hurls unfounded chargesover a nom-de-gucrre, and
then seconds his demand that correspondents who reply
should do so over their own names! Consistency indeed!
Vi/hen the pseudo-“.\lbertoli" summons up suiilcicnt cou-
rage to append his real name and address to his cominuni-
cations to “The Patriot," it will be time cnougli for hiln tu
usk others taking part in thc controversy to do likcwisc.
ln ycstcrdny's issuc, thc pseudo “.-\llicrton" llisplllyil
his iglionuicc oi' conditions prcvuiling in Albcrioii and
Elmsdale. Wcrc he al ull up-to-date, hc would lic awnrc
that Mr. Barbour is acting prosecutor thcrc, und thc Mag-
istrate has instructions to rcccirc complaints from him.
\Vere thc Government guilty of u conspiracy to slicltcr
any violater of thc law, tbcn Mr. Barbour would be n party
to it. Anyone who knows Alberton and knows Mr. Bar-
bour will apprcciatc the absurdity of the suggestion. As
to Elinsdulc and the allegation that the man put out of
business by the Government “never stopped until the nn-
dertaker carried him ont," perhaps it will be news to “Al-
berton” to learn that the ex-rumseller was very much alivc
_-if not kicking-so recently as Sat,urda_\'.
it would appear from these veiled attacks on the Gov-
ernment that somebody has an “axe to grind." The Gov-
ernment has done more lo advance the cause of tcmpcr-
iiiice unll to’ i~nf'ort:c the Prohibition Act than any of its
predecessors. 'l‘lic "lcprous spots" urc_ being wiped out,
and thc various communities throughout the Proviiicc
know that never in its history has it been so free from
“rum-holes" and illicit rum-selling. There is still much
'to be done, and we have not the slightest doubt the Gov-
ernment will continue its vigilance, and when the occa-
sion presents itself, take means to strengthen the mn-
cliinery at its disposal for making thc prohibitory law more
effective. liicantimc, it must be as edifying to Tempcrnncc
people to listen to the devil quote scripture as to have pro-
hibition preached from "The Patriot Stairs."

SMALL CHILDREN OF EMPIRE
We have referred at different limes io thc muniilcent
gifts sent in from all parts of thc Empire to the Mother
Country to aid her in the present war. in these gifts, gifts
of men, money, food and munitions of war, the whole En
pire showed its sympathy, its loyalty and its determina-
tion to prosecute the coniliioii struggle with a single mind.
This splendid feature of the war, so encouraging to the Em
pire, soinexplica-ble to our eueniies, cannot bc emphasized
too often or too strongly.
The London Times directs attention to another sig-
nif’ica.nt.incideiit of thc some kind. Niue, or Savage ls-
land, is one of the (‘ook islands, which were annexed to
New Zealand only thirteen years,ago. its population is
only 4,000 and is of the same race as the Maoris of New
Zealand. “This island,” says the Times “has sent 164
pounds ($820) of which 131 pounds ($655) was given by
the natives. and has offered 200 men to fight for the Em-
pire wherever they are needed. With the gift and the of-
fer came a letter signed by twelve chiefs. in which tli`e
islafidwipesks for itself:-'l am the inland oi' Niue.” it
lays, ‘n' smallchild that stands up to help the Kingdom
bf'George V. ,There are tw_o portions we are offering, (1)
money; (2)"men.
'I'lie'giit of eight hundred dollars to swell a war fund
reokbneti ‘in billions. and of 200 men to swell an army that
numbers millions, seems pathetically small. To the Ger-
mans, with their millions, it would doubtless seem con-
temptibly small, yet if they can read it they will find in it
the secret of tlie power of the British Empire, the ele-N
ment! of that power which they have been hoping so con-;
the British arms. 1,
King Khama sends his best wishes to King George and
the English people.

Dalindyebo. Paramount Chief of the Tembus (South E
aica) expresses its “loyalty and devotion to the King and h
it was attacked. They had the same idea about British a
credit; and here they may see that the British Empire
is founded upon credit of a different kind. if it be true, as
they say. that it is maintained not so much by our own
strength as by the consent of those whom we rule,then it
is more secure than if we had an army twice as large as
the Germans or a navy twice as large as our own. And
its security is a hundred times more glorious than any
based upon force. “i am the Islaild of Niue, at small child
that stands up to help the Kingdom of George V.°’ These
are touching words and might well be taken as words of
warning to Germany if only she were allowed to ht-ar
them.
'int NArioli’Ai. ANTHEM
The following, clipped from a recent issue of the Can-
adian Gazette, London, will strike a responsive chord in
other places as well as in the Old Land, The respectful and
reverent attitude of all audiences during the singing of the
National Anthem, since the war began, is in pleasing con-
trast to the rush for coats and the general preparation for
getting outuwhicli was so evident only a few months ago:
“Among the many effects oi’ this terrible war, l notice
in the Old Country an increased respect paid for thc Nu-
tional Anthem. We Canadians have in previous timcs been
rather shocked to soc, on our visit to London, the Na-
tional Anthem frcntcd us thc signal l`or thc putting on of
coats nt lhcutrcs. l’c-opic did not oven wnit lo hcur it
church at the opt-ning ol` each service, while the audience,
standing up sing it with fervor. This reminds me of (Fan-
uda. lil lialifax there stands a large wooden church -St.
I’aul's-built in 1750, u ycai' after the foundation of thc
city. The frame of the bulding is built of pine and onk
brought from Massachusetts when that state was still a
British possession. It is it tradition with that church that
the National Anthciii should be sung every Sunday, as it
has bccii froui thc time when it was first consecrated.
This public singing of “God Save the King" appeals
strongly to us Canadians, especially in war time."

NOTES '
The Boston ’l'ranscript‘s Wasliiiigtoii corespondent
charges that the Government systematically suppresses all
information concerning the Philipines and Mexico the color
of which it does not like. Secrecy and censorship are find--
ing favor in strange places these days. -
M. Gauthier, of (Ilagny,(d former member of the
Parliament of Franco, has been appealing for an early be-
ginning on the work of constructing a tunnel under thc
strait between England and France. Fear of France in
England has been a strong obstacle so for to all such
schemes. lf recent events have helped to destroy thc f`ear,
it will be some compensation for all the evil they ' have
created.
in yesterdays issue ot’ Tl?e Patriot Dr. Livlngstoli' T.
Mays, American Consul. states that the Guardian “always
refused the Consul‘s reply" to our "editorials in regard- to
him." \ye.sh¢>_uld like nr. Mays to indicstewhén the
Guardian refused his replies and in connection with what
editorials they were sent. So far, we have received no
lettcr from Dr. Mays in reply to any editorial article ap-
pearing in The Guardian.
The splendid patriotic gift of the Masonic Lodges of
this province, to which reference is made elsewhere in
this issue, is characteristic of that fraternity. Their good
works are done nnostentatiously and continuously. This
gift of $1,025 from the Prince Edward island brethren to
assist ln the grand work which originated with Canada
Lodge of London is a credit to the brethren and to the ef-
ficient Grand Secretary, Mr. W. P. Doull, through whose
untiring zeal the excellent result has been attained. No
doubt this worthy fund will be still further augmented by
the brethren.

PRUHIBITION IN SUMMERSIDE
Sir,-As you cluim that the Prohibi-
tion Act is being effectually enforced,
i wish to plucc heforc your readers
some facts i'or their verdict on this
question.
As Suinincrsido has been iiunied us
one of tho principal points in thc
Province wlicrc liquor is sold, thc
statcnients l give have only to do
with Summerside and the Sumnicrside
Police Court.
From Feliriiary lst to December 31,
1014. llicrc were only four cases
brought for scling liquor contrary
to the provisitiiis ol' the Proliibitioli
Act. (lm-. of those cuscs wus dis-
liiissoli, lwo ru:-iullcd iii convictions
for first offense, und' one for third
offciisc. but so far as I' can learn from
the Town Clerk and the juilor here,
not one of these convictions was
enforced. `
From February 14th to December
17th, 1914, under thc charge of drunk,
incapable and disorderly there were
forty-seven cases brought before the
Court, resulting in forty-six convic-
tions and one dismissal. Many of the
offenders in this class are from
country districts, and our police are
very considerate for these unfortun-
ates. Many \vlio were drulik and
incapable have been allowed to go to
their homes and in some cases our
police have used means to get men to
their homes rather than arrest them.
when \ve consider these facts and
take notice of the number of men who
frequent, often in groups. places
where liquor is known to be sold. the
conviction is forced upon us that so
far as Surnmcrside is concerned the
Prohibition Act is not enforced. I am.

BOOTS T00 LIGHT
T0 STAND THE WEAR.
O'l"l‘AWA. Jun. 18.-The liiilitlu
(Zominittee apointed to investigate thc
quality oi' boots furnished the (failu-
dinii soldiers now at Salisbury l’|uiii
.bus presented an interim report, which
is now being coiisillcrcd by the dc-
partmcnt. lt. will go before the illin-
ister und Militia Council. Though the
contents of the report have not been
divulged, it is understood that it finds
that many of the boots supplied were
far too llglit to stand the wear to
which they were subjected. In some
cases the quality of workmanship was
not of the best.
The Ottawa Evening Journal pub-
lishes to-day a letter from "a pronii_
ncnt Canadian officer at Salisbury,"
-whosc name “l'or obvious reasons" is
witlilield, in the course of which the
_writer says: "Outside of certain dis-
¢=0mf0\'lB. we get plenty, and all that
money can buy. but I would ask you
to appeal to the Government contrac-
tors with a view to touching their
sense of honor. it seems to me that
all they care about is to produce some
kind of article that has appearance.
They evidently do not stop-to cgnsi.
der that these sons of (lnnada are
roughing it for the specific purpose of
fighting, and sacrificing their all in
order to defend these same contrac-
tors* factories and personal liberty '

The principal trouble has been in'
boots. and it is not fair to the soldier
to allow these contractors to reap a
harvest at his expense. An officer is
in H position to purchase his own
enniiinient. but the man behind 'the
gun must take what he is served out
with. Of course, there have been
£01116 hood boots issued, which have
een manufactured by iz cortnfn two
firms. but the others are absolutely
unservlceable after a few days' wear."
