The outbreak was simply disgraeefiil. But it was abnormal and unusual. Such scenes lily ui. means represent the normal lliie of our _],\_-ople under prohibition.

We have tried here in lfiharlottetown all the modes and linethods of dealing with the' liquor fic. Our town is a seaport, which Uiirliiigtoii is not, and therefore the eoiiditions are even harder here than ltliere. But prohibition li-as made good here in general and in particu- lar-in election times, at Exhibition times, at annual militia camps and large igatlicriiigs of people. It has i'cp1accd disorder and intemperance with order and sobriety. It has greatly diminished drunkenness, dis- order und crime right here in Char- fottetown in the open sight of ull men. ’l’hc drunken outbreak of which l!\l1. Auld speaks was most regret- table.

Befori the Boer War the national debt had been reduced to £635,040,956. Thi' Boer War which cost in roimd figures 5 billion dollars added £149,482,00l to the debt, the difference being in-adi good by extra taxes imposed during the struggle. When the late Govern ment went out of power the gms: debt stood at £789.000.00U- The present Government paid of' £7‘,700,000 in the first year, £9.800,00l. year just closed was only £fI,000.00l owin to the trouble rowin out ol the current year the debt will be re~ duced by £9,687,000. The betterment in tive years will really be £63,000,- 000 if increased assets are taken into account, and this in the face of tht enormous expenditure on naval con _ struction and the heavy new chargei for old age pensions. Alone ainon the nations of EUFOPB. free tradi Britain has n surplus in the treasury and is steadily reducing her debt. Liberal journals east and west seemed to have reached the conclu- sion that` the strong free trade senti- ment which Sir Wilfrid Laurier has encountered in every part of the Northwest cannot fail to leave its impress on his mind and on his fu- ture fiscal policy. The Halifax Chronicle says: “The organized cam- paign in the West iii favor of a low~ er .tariff is bound tu make its influ- ence felt throughout the Dominion. Everywhere Sir Wilfrid Laurier has gone he has met with demands for reductious in the tariff." The Toronto Star says 1 “The Per- liaments elected on the basis ol’ the census of 1911 are likely' to be strongly influenced by the free trade sentiment of the west." We might multi 1 opinions of the same -iort sons in the Maritime Provinces' tp whom -the high tariff has all along represeiited nothing better than loss and burden. The tariff reform leaven is working. - Although the Northwest crops are dred million bushels of wheat is a in all the Provinces wi‘il probably ex- acres under wheat, of which 8,376,345 acres are in the Northwest, so large- l has wheat cultivation shifted f"om The Dominion has 9,864,100 acres un- der oats, and the estimated area of all the field crops is 30,554,200°acres. And the federal revenue has risen be ond a hundred million dollars million to a million and a half per month over last year. Great public works are being constructed and Canadian industries are generally tented, peaceful, prosperous and hap- country. The S dney papers recorded seven are seaports, in the same ‘latitude.At last census Charlottetown had over 12,000 people, Sydney slightly under 10,000. Both have since grown.
