P. ._-.__ .__-._ , The Montreal Star quotes portions of the address recently issued by Mr; John Charlton, MIP. to: his constituents in North Norfolk in which he mildly crit- icises the Liberal Government, and ,ex- presses his views in independent fashion. Onefpoint of his criticism is that the ex- penditure has been very` large, and while he will not say that satisfactory reasons for it h1;s.c‘not been given, he thinks the annu§}§i'itlay ought to be curtailed in the futurb, and that the debt ought to be decrezisedyeariy by the amount of our contribution to the sinking funds. \Ve think this view of the case will commend itself to a very large number of moderate men in both parties. In regard to preferential trade as ad- ‘vocated by Sir Charles Topper Mr. Charl- ,ton takes the position that while Canada is “not likely to be able to get preferential treatment for her food products in the British markets, owing ,the relatively small amount of- our trade could come of a greater effort, and negotiations with the Mother Country ienjoyed by the foreign states.” - Jiri a' lard* mt. u his party leaders.

There was thought to be little need, o: solliers in a country which had en-Q" joyed two or three generations of peace. No fear was felt of foreign invasion and as for internal troubles it had been rare ulasi that the ordinary police of our cities and the few peace oitiicers through- out .the couw had not proved amply sufficient to maintain oi-der. True, there had been Fenizin invasions, and some trouble with half-breeds in the North- west, but those troubles were now long ,past and it was hoped would never re- cur. Thcre was even a considerable min- ority in the country disposed to criticise the militia expenditure as a waste of public money, and among this class there were frequent sneers at the "idle and useless" displays, and the “play soldier- ing” as it was called, of the annual camps. Now all this has _been changed. When the South African war broke out and Britain waslthreatened with foreign interference on many sides; when the disruption of the Empire was seriously V’ endangered, the martial spirit of the Canadian people rose with the danger iwiih thi” ¢0\1Di»1'.Y»" he thinks 11° harm audit became a cause for sincere grati- lf tude that wehad in~C.inada the nucleus “Rein ¢l€<=f»°d h° Wm f‘"°" °P°“i“3 of is military organisation which might _ t'° aid in maintaining the integrity and secure such trade concessions as “will PM tus in a more favorable position than that our volunbeen ‘mend their services to so security of the nation.

He is a prominent Presbyterian and has from time to time introduced meas- pures for the better observance of the Sabbath and for the better preservation ,public morals. In Morgan’s Canadian ‘ him: “ML Charlton has not always been in complete accord with his party. He ad- vised an increase of duties in 1876 from 175 to 20 or 22 per cent to provide for de- ficiency in revenue and to satisfy the de- i' mands of the protectionist element in the Liberal party. He voted against his party leader and with the Macdonald Govern- ment on the Riel question and he was one of the “Noble 13" who supported Col. O'Brien`s resolution in opposition to the Jesuit’s Estates bill." Sir John A. Macdonald once said of Mr. Charlton that he was “the most logical speaker and debater in the House." He is an extensive lumberman, conducting business in Ontario and in the states of Michigan and New York. He wasstrong- i ing opposed to the imposition of an export ,duty on sawiogs by the Ontario Govern- _ ment, which interfered with his large ex- port business. Mr. Charlton has been one iof the most prominent Ontario Liberals outside of the Cabinet, and in recognition of his ability and services was made a member of the Joint High Commission that recently met in Quebec and Wash ingtonvvith' aview to settling thequestions ,at issue between Canada and the United iStates. His published address gives no ,intimation of withdrawing his support from his party leaders,and his honest crit- ` icisms are likely to prove not worse than ' a neaiehf-.n medicine. - i .img-_*_ It has been suggested that the P. E. il Island Railway ought to give excursion rates to and from Charlottetown on the 'occasion of the return of our brave volun- i teers from South Africa. Hundreds from all parts of the Island will desire to visit the city and join in the welcome on that occasion and it would seem desirable to afford every reasonable facility for carry- ing out their laudable and patriotic im- ; pulses. _<__->--- EVERY MOVEMENT HURTS.

Nobiy have they proved their courage, endurance and worth on many ii well-fought field, on inanya wearisomc march, and amid the greatest privations, making a record /of which not only Canada but the Empire is proud. The events of the past year have not only roused the martial and I patriotic spirit of the Canadian people but have produced the settled conviction that. the defensive for/ces of the country must be maintained. Well-considered preparation for war affords the best security for peace, and this fact has come to be realiz- ed in Canada. Thecountry now heartily approves any judicious expenditure for the better arm ingjequipment and drill of our volunteers. In this line it the en- largement and improvement of the Drill Shed in Charlottetown for which a con- tract has been let to Messrs Lowe Brot- hers. The contract is in good hands and the much-needed improvements when completed will be _heartily welcomed by our citizens soldiery. Never before was sthgprestige of our volunteer forces so high, nor the feeling of esteem and regard ofthe entire people toward them so warm andgeneral asat the present time. Fo allthesc reasons the moderate grunt uisde the Government to improve their illlsrters will be generally appreciated and couimsnded. ' The death is announced of Hon. John Sherman, late Secretary of State in Presi- dent McKinley's Cabinet. Failing powers induced his retirement from office some years ago. He was born in Ohio in 1823; was admitted to the bar in 18-£4; was Re- publican member of Congress 1855-61, Senator 1861-77, Secretary of the Treasury under President Hayes 1877'-81 and there- a`ter occupied aseat in the Senate till cal ed to the cabinet of President McKinley. 3 V Some readers have commended our article'-of yesterday in favor of a pure election. We regret to learn, however that there are_'already some indications of preparations for the old practices. There is increased drinking of intoxicants both. in town and country. The anti-treating clause of the law now in force is openly disregarded. Vie cull the attention of thc inspector again to these matters. Rum drinking is always demoralizing enough in all conscience,but is doubly so when in iiuencing votes. Letius have not only a pure but a sober election. Vt e quite agree with the Ex.miner that it would be well to have an impartial in- vestigation of the charges made by Mr. H. H. Cook as to the alleged offer to sell him a Senatorship. The country would like to know the facts, and no honest public man need fear to have the facts brought to light. The Premier has given afiat denial to the charge so far as his knowledge is concerned, and we doubt not itwill be accepted, but if any person, however authorized, made such sn offer that the name of the per son and the extent of his authority or agency should be mane public. Weithinkf howevei, that as a- preliminary -Mr. Cook offer to him. This he has not yet done. A BUNDLE- I - every organ of the human body isde nd _ ent upon it.
