Montreal! Gazette. the need of a clean government for Cana a apd the impossibility of securing it the Conservatives are in power. The Con- servatives have a very human record it is true, and have much to repent of. Their defence, however, does not lie alone in say- are. as far as their opportunities have gone, the Liberals are worse than the Conservatives have been, aud that, unlike the Conserva- tives, the Liberals have done nothing to condemn or punish bribers or corruptiou- ists in their own ranks. For doing cor- rupt deeds a Conservative government ex- pelled some of its own followers from Parliament, has prosecuted and imprison- ed others, “has civilly proceeded again-t others again and recovered for the public large sums of money wrong- ly obtained from the treasury. The Liberals can point to no offi- cial action to equal this. They have had opportunity evough but never availed themse!ves of it. When a Liberal Gov- ernment humiliated Quebec there was not found in the Legislature a single mem- ber of Mr. Laurier’s varty to rise up and condemn the wrongdoing. The responsi- bility of action to save the Province’s good name was put altogether on the Con- servative Opposition. I: is not, however, necessary to go to the provinces ‘or proot that the Liberal party is a corrupt one. The following of Mr. Laurier in the House of .Commons was not always so si.all and ineffective as it is to-day. After ihe elec- tion of 1891 it was within thirty votes of being as strong in numbers as the Govern- ment supporters. It is now in a minority of almost sixty. The change is the resalt of the enguiry by the courts into the methods pursued by the Liberals in secur- ing the return of Liberal members of Par liament. After the general elections of 1891, the following representatives or friends of the Liberal party admitted, or had proven against themselves or their friends acts of bribery and corruption suf- ficient to annul their elections : Mr Trow, South Pe:th. Mr Gibson, Lincoln. Mr Tarte, Montmorency. Mr Borden, King’s, N B. Dr Spohn, Kast Simcoe. Mr Truax, Kast Bruce. Mr Forbes, Queen’s, N B. Mr Brodeur, Rouville. Mr Barron, North Victoria. Mr Hargraft, West Northumberland. Mr German, Welland. Mr M C Cameron, West Huron. Mr Proulx, Prescott. Mr Legris, Maskinonge. Mr Davidson, South Untuario. Mr Hyam, London. Mr Murray, Pontiac. Mr King, King’s, N B. Mr Gauthier, L’Assomption. Mr Colter, Carlton, N B. Mr Grieve, North Perth. Mr Choquette, Montniagny. Mr Harwood, Vaudreuil. Mr Mousseau, Soulanges. * These twenty-four gentlemen constit- uted over une-fourth of the Liberal repre- sentation in the House of Commons after the elections of 1891. In the fact that they were unseated is the proof that bribery of voters was not a sporadic or isolated prac- tice by Opposition supperters. It was general and wholesale. There has been no such record of electoral corruption unveiled in Canada or elsewhere in the sritish dominions since the abolition of the English rotten boroughs and the exten- sion of the franchise. _ And it ig not an isolated case. There has been no general election in Canada that has not keen followed by the unseating of Liberal members. When Mr. Mackenzie dissolved Parliament for the purpose, as he put it, of elevating the standard of public morality, the facts uncovered after the election was over showed that, what- ever Mr. Mackenzie himself felt, his fol- lowers had no antipathy to bribery when it would serve their purpose. Some of the oldest and best of Liberals have organ- ized funds for the purpose of corrupting the voters. It was Hon. George Brown who invited his friends to come down handsomely, in order that a big push might be made on polling day. It was Mr. John Madiveil, a Liberal, who wrote to another Liberal to come along and help put down corruption, adding significantly, “We've lots of money.” It was was Hon. John Simpson, a Liberal Senator, who boasted of bribing the voters in batches of fifteen and six- teen. It was Hon Malcolm Cameron, a Liberal leader, who complained that he had been neglected after he had spent $6,000 in contesting Russell, which, he said, had a good effect in securing the con- stituency later for the misnamed “Reform” party. The same gentleman in a somewhat memorable circular said he had spent time and money in carrying South Ontario and defeating an ex-Conservative minister. They were Liberals who organized the lan- tern brigade in Lennox and bribed voters in adark room. They were Liberals who went through Norfolk depositing five dol- lar bills in voters’ ovens. They were Lib- erals who in Yarmouth organized a whis- key campaign to aid in the election ofa prohibition candidate. From Confedera- tion till the present time, (though in four years out of five there have been more Conservatives than Liberals in Parliament, there have been many more Liberals than Conservatives unseated for bribery. There have been many times more Liberals than Conservatives dis- qualified for bribery. The most flagrant cases of corruption in the political history of the country have had Liberals as their principal actors. One election in Glen- garry, it was openly asserted, coet the Liberal candidate’ and his friends full $30,000. The most notorious bribes of to-day are Liberals. It is not necessary to recall their names. Right in Montreal are men who have been time and again reported to the Speaker of the House of Commons as persona] bribes, personators or intimidators of electors. They enjoy the confidence of the party leaders and receive the party nomination. In the Quebec district men who notoriously ben- efited in their private purses by the job- bery fof the late Liberal administration are likely candidates of their party in the coming election. They attend Liberal councils and are favored by Liberal repre- sentative meu. Neither Mr. Laurier nor apy other Liberal in Parliament has con- demned the methods by which, in the campaign of 1891, tens of thousands of dollars from the Quebec provincial treasury were diverted to the Dominion Liberal Election fund. A political party, likea man, is to be judged by works. Talk without action to back it, like faith with- out works,is dead. The words of the Liberal party are well enough, but their works give them the lic. The Con- servative party, with allits weakness, can invite comparison with the Liberals iu the matter of dealing with electoral corrupt- ion. The Conservatives are the only p:rty which dares to condemn and punish cor- ruption in its own ranks. THE BEST is what the People buy the most of.

The Great French Comedian, These are the features of the Prince of French Comedians, whose ‘ Tartuffe,” which he may be said to have made his own, convulses every audience which has the delight of seeing the master portray the arch hypocrite. Respecting ‘“ Vin Mariani,” he says; ‘‘ Strange to say that * Vin Mariani,’ so exquisite a wine, should also be a remedy, and a delicious one at that, so pleasant to the taste and so bene- ficial to the entire system.” And Coquelin merely states a truth which is attested by the most famous men and women of the age, by the foremost medical men, and the managers of all the great hospitals. ‘Vin Mariani” is indeed beneficial to the system. The weakest can digest it; the most debil- itated are benefited by it; the most hope- less are revivified by it; and as has been often said regarding it, ‘‘It gives new life and hope.” ‘Vin Mariani” is the great tonic-stimulant of the age, used by the great brain-workers of the world, who find that, exhausted by overwork, it refreshes, strengthens, and builds up the whole sys- tem. An album of portraits of many celebrities who have spoken highly of “ Vin Mariani ” will be sent to those who send their address to Lawrence A. Wilson & Co., Montreal, the Canadian Agents.

FEAKE BROS. & CO., Selling Agents, Charlottetown. May 25, 1894—tf | SUGGESTIONS IN RESPECT TO | EDUCATION. 1 | | } A whiter for The Week submita for the consideration of the educationa! authorities |of Outario a few suggestions which might be considered vy the educativnal | authorities of this Province. We quote: First —That no man should be per- mitted to teach in the public schools ander the age say of twenty-one; that the miini- mum salaries of the public school teachers should be raised; and that every teacher should be subjected to a more severe traiu- ing, and be compelled, as in Prussia, to p-edge himsélf to serve as a teacher in the Dominion for at least three years, under a suflicient penalty. Parents would there- by be assured of a better class of teachers by the raising of the dignity ef the profes- sion, and young men would not be allared into the already overcrowded walks in life by the prospect of an immediate remuner- ative employment to be used as a stepping stone to something else. Second.—-The introduction of technical or industrial training into our high schools. Third.—That after the age of fifteen the pupils’ fees in the high school shal! be so fixed thateach pupil may Le self-maintaiu- ing. rourth.—In order to provide for the education of men of ability, who cannot afford to pay the regular fees, the prece- dent, long established by the English Pub- lie Schools and universities, should be wlopted, and a liberal system of scholar- ships instituted, whereby a clever boy may receive a free education from the time he leaves the Public School, through the High School, Univer-ity, School of Science or any profession he may select. This will not only prove a great incentive to work, but also provide a safeguard to the State against any chance of losing the ser- viccs Of a man of superior endowments by reason of his parents’ inability to pay the cost of education; a much more sensible and economical plaa, we submit, than the method of indiscriminate free education, af present adopted, in order to avoid such a catastrophe. Fifth.—fbat the Public and High Schools, so far as the general edcnation of boys is concerned, be restored to the posi- tion originally intended for them, the standard of the Public Schools being raised so as to supply a complete course in rudimentary education, and the High Schools conducted more nearly on the lines of a Grammar School, as a prepara- tion for the University. Sixth.—That by occasional illustrated lectures, both at the High Schools and Universities, the attention of pupils be drawn tothe agricultural resources of our undeveloped country, and at the same time the true conditions, chances and prospects of business and professional life be laid before them. It may be argued that this does not come under the head of Education; although we must admit that for the student at the most critical period of his life such information is of the greatest importance and it may be the means ef saving many citizens to the country by jeading her young men to a wise choice of occupation. This sugges- tion we propose to deal with more fully ata late date under the head of Coloniza- tion. Seventh.—In order that our young men may be encouraged in ti.e acquisition of culture and higher education without being forced to Jeave their daily business, and those whose better judgment leads them to enter into business at any early age may not be deprived of the advautages of a more advanced education, every possible encouragement be given to the University Extension System, lately adopted by Torento University, and, in addition to this, im connection with our Mechanics Institutes,a regular course of extension Jectures and examinations be provided on the level of our High School System, <b NEWFOUNDLAND. weli Connected with the discussion of the question of federation with Canada, some data in reference to the ancient colony will be of interest. It has double the area of Nova Scotia, and considerably less than half its popu- lation; it is one-sixth larger than Ireland, and nearly as large as New York State. St. John’s, the capital, is 490 miles from Halifax, and 1,070 miles from Mont- real. At one point the island is within 70 miles of Cape Breton. In 1891 the population was 202,040, of which the capital contained 29,000. The religious census showed: Roman Catho- lice, 72,696; Church of England, 69,834; Methodists, 53,296; Salvationists, 2,092; Presbyterians, 1,449; Congregational, 782; Baptists, 37. The principal industry is fishing. Only 60,000 acres are under cultivation, though 3,000,000 in the great valleys alone are available for settlement. Sixty thousand people are engaged in the fisheries. The cod fishery, the largest in the world, is of the annual value of $6,000,000; seal fish- ery $750,000; salmon $100,000, and quite a large Jobster canning industry. The public debt, which in 1882 was $1,- 498,777, bad increased in 1893 to$8,052,127, largely on account of the building of 311 miles of railway. The debt is represented chiefly by the railway, the St. John’s dry dock and post office, lighthouses, break- waters, etc., and amounts to about $40 per head. The taxation is about $8 per head.
