COUNTRY before PARTY ||UNlt:lPAL REFORM outing Quavlliau. ‘,..:;.‘.¥.~. ‘uT".....f f .-..- I The Campaign- While a fair and equitable represen- basis of population, is the object of the civic reformers, there are other advantages that will attend the adop- tion of the city bill which cannot be goo highly prized liy the well-meaning people of Charlottetown. The bill must commend itself to every fair- minded citizen because it will take the management of civic affairs from the hands of a minority and place it in the hands of the majority. That in itself should command the support of the citizens. But when it is remembered that that minority is a corrupt, a law- defying, a dishonorable minority, and one that has held this city up to the ridicule of Canada, how determined every elector who has aspark of public spirit within him should he to do his part to put that minority in its place. Now the majority in Charlottetown comprise a class of men, honorable and self-respecting. They would scorn to be repremnted by rumsellers, law- breakeni and law-defyels They may not all be temperance men, some may indulge in their glass and object to temperance legislation. But there is something galling, and rightly so, to s re-pectable citizen in the idea of being represented by men who are socially or morally degraded. They wish to be represented by men who would at least beable to conduct themselves with quiet decency and some dignity. In the lower wards of the city, however, to use what seems likea paradox, “this majority is in a minority.” Those wards have been utterly indifferent to the character of their councillors. They have elected and re-elected men while names have figured in the police court, who have been imprisoned for repeated violations of the law, and whose deliberations have won for them in the neighboring provinces the ap- pellation of “ the owl like deliberative assembly.” Should not these facts spur on those of the majority, in every ward, to battle for their rights with even greater earnestness than if it was only aqueation of Rightsl The opponents :f-the bill claim that it takes unfairly from the lover wards one representative. Mr. F. L. Has- surd very clearly showed that a re-adjustment of Wards could disfranchise no portion of the city so long as representation by popu- lation prevailed. This principle will no ed men in all parts of the city. And yet some few respectable men cling to the idea of Ward One being injured. We cannot understand it. One gen- tleman publicly declared his opinion to this efi'ect at Friday's meeting, and then went on to admit that the liquor interest was unduly represented in the Council. and that it was due to the fact that they did not support respect- able men when they were put in nom- ination. This means either that many of the property holders, of whom the speaker was one, did not vote at all or else voted against the respectable can- didates, who they admit should have been supported, and for the liquor dealers. Then they practically dis- franchised themselves -—l they were never properly represented in the Council. And yet they rise up in op- position to a bill which is to their ad- vantage to adopt. and say it robs them of fair representation. Why so fond all at once of a privilege which they have been throwing away! I The City Council sat only a short time last evening. After hearing read an application for a money grant, Conn. Morris got up and said that he was in favor of voting the money, but the law required that notice of a resolution must first be given. Then he went on to say that as several of the councillors were unable to remain, it would be better to adjourn the meeting till Wednesday night-—afler the election. carried and the Council Cheticamp, but all fisheries dull at other without notice of a being. 9‘Wl- It was quitea coupd’elat on ihptrtof C)un.l{orrisandhig tho with- 0¢!§l[ $35.3‘ :fJ’*mw.

' For the last eighteen years he says he has tried to do his duty in the City Council, and now he has determined not to offer his services again. Conn. Morris will be commended more for this de- cision than for anything he did during his eighteen years in the Council. \Ve commend the good example he sets to his five colleagues. Hon B. Davies writes a letter to the Examiner, opposing the city bill and giving as one of his reasons that the Legislature “treated the Mayor aud City Council with disrespect when they took on themselves to disfrnnchise certain wards, etc., without the sanc- tion of the Council or the consent cf the citizens.” We..wonder if all who criticiaeadversely the bill have neg lected, like Mr. Davies, to read it, and to ascertain what the election is all about. ———c>o-4}» -~ - Over three thousand dollars have already been expended, and much of it wasted, on the streets, besides labor still going on and not yet paid for.

There as always been considerable difibrence of opinion as to the wisdom of the Agency system, and it is nothing new to be told that the druggiats would like to have it changed. There is a new drink that the rum co- le aretrying to sell. They call it “ no 1-.” It contains from 2 to 3 per cent. of alcohol; and they claim that it is unin- toxicsting. The law does not allow more than 3 per cent., but if a drink can be intoxicating it comes within the law, how- ever small the percentage of alcohol may be. A few days ago a case against Uno beer came up at Lewiston. Professor Robinson, chemist of Bowdoin College, declared that it was intoxicating, and the man was fined $100 and sentenced to 60 days. A case of the same kind was tried in the Portland Municipal Court Pro- fessor Carmichael of Boston testified that it was not intoxicating. Judge Gould discharged the defendant. The dealers were awaiting the. dicision with anxiety. Judge Gould is now highly esteemetl by the “Uno” men.-—-N. Y. Voice. ‘ * Rattles to-day menso Maine.

A'!'LAN‘l'A, Aug. l.—The Georgia Legig- lature is in session. One of the most im- rtant measures before it is the so-called ° ry bill,which permits any county hereafter voting for Prohibition to estab- lish dispensaries for the ale of liquors by duly qualified oflicials (who are not to be interested in the profits) to citizens who can show that they are of good habits. The bill does not apply to any county now having pnohibitinn, and is not mandatory in its application to counties voting for Prohibition in the future; all such coun- ties are to vote se tely on the dispen- question. an no dispensaries are to be established in them unless the major- ity order thst they shall be. A bill pro- hibiting the sale of liquors within three miles of churches and school houses has passed both houses, but since certain amendments were added by the senate it is not yet a law. Gambli£g_In Lives- Loxnon, July 30.-—The Pall Mall Ga- zette print: a sensational article this after- noon entitled: “Gambling in Lives.” It describes the system of fraudulent insur- ance, which it declares forms as hideous s trafiic in human life as ever disgraced a civilized community. The business chiefly centers in the towns of Lancasbire. The insurers, incollusion with agents of com- panies, select drunken, diseased or feeble persons, represent them as robust, and take out ilicies when they keep paid up. The rties insured are paid a small sum for t eir acquiescence, and for the trouble of signing paper. In one case a wretched old hanger on at Manchester tavern; was insured for £1,841). Another had a policy for £9,000 taken out in his name. Some liciea on his" life have been allowed to apae, and one speculator has already paid beyond are rare. The profits are generally large.
