Dear Six,—I would exact grievance by investigation of facts. lf in vestigation proved rea! grievances to exist I wou!!, by conference with the Manitoba Government and otherwise, exhaust all meansto make a fair settlement, and would oppose Dominion interference ex- cept as last resort. The committee of investigation should consist of men of such standing that no suspicion of politic- al bias could attach to them. Yours truly, F. Peters, Premier of P. E. I. arcertain Mr. Peters is certainly not ary to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council and the lower courts mm priment- Ly which the Manitoba schoo! questiop has been repeatedly investigate 1 aud a griev- ance declared. Is it to be supposed that these courts came to their decisions with- ? Is it to be that the judges of thesé“courts are not just out investigation insinuated ” or impartial ? Is it possible that any Goverament of Canada. couit appoint a com mission com posed of men abler cr the These mea have declar- the We presume that more impartial than the Lords of Privy Counei ed that a real grie¢ance’ does, under law, exist in Manitoba. Mr. Peters will not-deny chat tae Govern ment have exhausted every reasonable means to make a fair seftlemeat, and that | the Remedial Bill isdeing passed, after five or six years of litigation; only as a last resort. The fact that a couference has been held and that ¢ propositien to put he schocls of M anitcoca on & Lasis prac- tically similar to that on which. rests the echools of the -Maritime Provinces has been rejected, proves this beyond a doubt. om + COLD STORAGE.

We cannot afford, just now, to have cold storage at every shipping place; and our object is to collect our products at one port whence they may be shipped, in ocean steamers, to the British markets. If Charlottetown is not for all, ali things considered, the most convenient port of shipment, by all means select another. —— 2 +@+e ——- -Wontrea!

It has under construction around the Dalles of the Columbia a ship railway to accommodate boats weighing, with cargo, 600 tons. The canal will be be- tween eight and wine miles in length, and the rise at the lower end will be from fifty to eighty feet, according to the state of the tide, and jt wil) require about an hour and a half to transport a boat from the river to the river again. —Moncton Times : A Moncton business man who contemplates the purchase of several teams of heavy working horees, is advised by an Amerivan horee buyer to go to Boston for then. He says they can be bought in Boston or Montreal to better ad- vantage than in the maritime provinces. He savs that in Wisconsin 1308 or 1400 pound horses, sound aud strong, can be bought for thirty dollars apiece. The market of sixty'milliens is not of much value to Canadian farmers just now. —-The Manitoba ‘chool legislation a in a form which its own autbor his characterized as “:yrannical.” It practically said< to the Protestant; in the Protestant districts: “As regards religion, you may continue as you were”; while to the Roman Cat- halies in the Roman Catholic districts it declared: “You formerly bad your own prayers ; henceforth you must use the- prayers that Lave been applicable to_ the Protestant schools only, or if those pray- ers are not such as your conscience re- quires you mustabolish religion altogether and secularise your schools; if you fail either to change your prayers or to abandon them, you shall have neither the Goy- ernment grant nor the money which you subscribe for schoo! purposes through the municipal texation.” The consequer ce of this law is that the schools which Dr. Bryce aays were formerly national are no longer so. They are Separate in the last degree, and in. the worst form, for effitieny through State control has been aban loned. ———— eee DAIRY DEVELOPMENT. Evidence of a Prominent Liber :1. (Specia] correspondence of Mai] and Em pire.) There was an amusing scene at this morning’s session of the Agriculture Committee. The ehief business was the evidence of Mr. Shutt, chemist at the Central Experimental rarm, whose ad- dress to the committee is always very valuable and interesting to those who have sufficient technical knowledge to understand it; but it is not, generally speaking, of an excitiog cHaracter, hav- ing reference in the main tothe analysis ot soils, manures, well water, and the I:ke. The fun came on after Mr. Spautt had finished. Mr. D. Derbyshire, of Brock- ville, president of the Ontario Creameries Association, who came up to Outawa to- day on a deputation attended the meeting of the commititze to hear Mr. Shutt’s add-ess, and the chairman of the comm ttee (Dr. Sproule) tock ad- vantage of his presence to ask him to make a few remarks to the committee Mr. Derbyshire is a Liberal from away back, but he is an enthusiastic supporter. of the policy adopted ky the present gov- ernment for the development (of the dairy industry, and he at once launched into a eulogy of wha. had been done in. the past, and an earnest recommendation of a for- ward policy in the same direction in the future. Out of the Br.tish market for cheese of twenty-six million dollars, we had captured sixteen million dollars The British butter market was sixty-five mil- lions; of thiswe hal only about $00,- Q00. We increased our exports of winter creamery butter frou: $32,000 in 1894 to $69,000 in 1895, through the assistance of the Dominion Government, and he believed that the trade would be double that amount in 1896.-. With en- terprise and the assistance of the Govern- ment, he saw no reason why we should not get as large a share of the British but- ter market as of the cheese market, and he urged the committee to do all they could to bring this about. Naturally this style of evidence did not please the Liberal members of the com- mittee, and Messrs. Campbell, Sanborn, and others set to work to pluck Mr. Derby- shire’s wings. But the attempt proved a failure. Mr. Derbyshire’s enthusiasin was unquenchable, and as he knew what he was talking about, the efforts of the Uppos - tion members to throw cold water on the appeal for the development of the dairy industry only provoked the president of the Ontario Creameries Assoviation to in- sisting more and more strongly on the success of tue Governmenv’s efforts to fur- ther the prosterity of the farmers of Can- ada. “The farmers had the money in their trousers pockets and could buy their wives new bonnets; te, were happy and good humored; they were selling their wititer butter at gool prices for export. The creamery at Wellman’s Corners, es- tablixhed by the Dominion. Government, which a short time ago was only handling 1,000 pounds of milk a day, was now handling 23,000: ‘The British market for butter was there and we ought to get it. Canadians were not afraid of the compe- tition. They could make a first class ar- ticle and that was what the English peo- pe wanted.

It is infinitely better to buy a second hand wheel of a high grade make than to spend 50 or 60 dollars on the ‘‘just as good” variety, and then pay out as much more for repairs. Don’t do it.

MR, DAVIES AS AN AUTHORITY, (Ottawa Citizen.) A little incident occurred in the detiate | the other day which shows how. relieble | Mr. Davies is. He was attacking Sir Charles Tupper for inaccuracy, Sir Char- les had compared the wheat production { of our northwest with that of Great Brit- ain last year. Heeaid: “Although we have only scratched as it were the margin ofthe great wheat field of the world in Manitoba and the northwest, which a few years ago formed a desert, this territory has produced as much wheat, or about as much, at the whole of the United King- dom.” Mr. Davies scouted this statement as “ridiculous nonserse’’ He said it was grossly untrue, and he pretended to show that it was untrue by reading from the Statesman’s Year Book. He said: ‘The Statesman’s Year Book shows that the production of wheat in Great Britain and Ireland reached sixty million bushels, and in Manitoba it did not reach thirty mill- ions.” Now, the member for Queen’s, P. KU, held the book in his hand while he was talking, and there was, consequently, no excuse for misleading the House. The fact is that the figures be gave referred to i894. In that year the crop of Great Britain amounted to the figures named; but last year, the year to which the Sec- retary of State alluded, the production of wheat in the United Kinglom fell to 37,- 176,000. Thecrop in Manitoba was 31,- 775,038, so that the total production — of the Northwest was, as Sir Charles) Tupper had said, about as much a8 the whoie of the United Kingdom. It has Jong been known that Mr. Day- ies’ statements will bear watching, and that they are by no means. to.;,,be accepted without investigat‘on. This last iustance, however, is one ofthe most glar- ing cases of reckless inaccuracy that has been brought before the attention of the House for some time, ES A —Montreal Gazette: In Fyance, Parlia- ment is split up into groups, and itis bad for the Governmert.
