OUR Arter all The Guardian said and did last spring, and in the years preceding, the Government hae not voteda cent towards the improvement of the telegraph eer~ vice of this Province or the lowering of the rates, The Government voted away FIFTY-FIvE millions of dollars—FrirrrEx MILLIONS more than the “ extravagant Conservatives” expended—but not a nickl® towards night tclegrams for the Guardiau or lower rates forthe public! All the binster about the telegraph monopoly— —by the way, Sir Louis says there is no mouopoly—hbas ended in nothing! Yet the discreet organ is quite content. It says nothing now sbout telegrams, anc seems to be well pleaeed when it can get in a word in defence of the Government’s hypocrisy and deceit with reference to Protection, extravagant expenditures, high taxes and increasiug debt. The wonder is that i does uot defend their conduct as to tne Plebiscite and National Prohibition, or the jobbery and political corruption of which the flood-gates have been opened by Mesers. ‘larie, Sittom and Blair. But inixs would,. perheps, be going a step too fer ior ibe inde; endent and honest men who have, heretofore, given The Guardian their countenence and support. The Gu-erdian ie discreet, if it isa supporter of the new Literals who make such Wueton use oftbe taxpayers’ money !

CONVENTION, We are glad to notice that our friends are getting in line as a fiit?ng response to Tue Examin&r’s call of a few days ago- Western iniormation says that the Presi- dent of the West Prince Association, Dr. Murphy, Las called the convention of the West Riding of Prince for Auguet the 22nd inst. We are informed ihat Geo. will likely be present, to addrees the electors of West Prince at O'Leary on the 22nd, The electors of West Prince are active and energetic, and when the time comes to line up for the general election they will be found ready and willing to accept tbe gaze of battle. According to THe Examiner it con- demns the Government becauce ito mem- bers througbout twenty long years de-~ nounced protection. That was long ago ee — EXAMINER, GHARLOTTETOWN AUGUST 8, 1900 ————$———— Ficnic. The ladies of Mount Stewart, viewing the necessity of improving the sidewalks in the village, intend holding a mammoth _ picnic Eclipse ] SATURDAY, 18th Inst. There will be a well stocked saloon, tea tables, dancing booths, swings. bowling alley and other amusements of a very attractive nature. Nothing will be Jeft undone to make this picnic the outing of the season. Everything will be provided to please the taste and fancy of an epicure. The grounds selected for the occasion is but a’stones throw from the river, where the speckled beauties abound in profusion. So if picnics are not in your line, arm yourself witb a fishing rod and spend a pleasant while angling in the placid waters of the Hilsboro. Arrangements will be made fora special train or a steamer from Charlottetown on that day (of which due notice will be given) to place excursionists on the spot. Be sure and make a _ note of the date ,the 18th, as it will bea gala day at Mount Stewart. W. A. CHEVERIE, Secretary.

Now why does not our con temporary give them credit for doing a good thing while in power ? We not think so bighly of the protective system as THE EXAMINER docs, but that is nothing here or there. Why condemn a party 80 severely for talking wrong and refuse all credit for doingright? We pause for a reply.— GUARDIAN. A suificient reply to this twaddle might be given in another question— Why con~ demn as man tor stealing a horse to ride to town when he has a horse of his own ? —eurely it’s all right to come to town ! There can be no doubt that before the last general election, and throughou, the twenty years previous thereto, Free Trade was the policy of the Liberal party, and Protection that of the Conservatives: The Liberal leaders {denounced Pro- tection in principle and in practice, per- Suaded many persons that they were right, that Protec ion was a curse to the coun~ try—and so obtained many votes. After getting into power by means of these votes, they have thrown Free Trade overbosrd, have etolen Protection,and are riding prosperously on the Protection horse belonging to their opponents, But the Guardian cannot see that thi y have done anything wrong! While we pity the Guardian’s moral and menial obliquity, we have no doubt that all intelligent and honest electors cee clearly that the men who have done this ere not —to be put upon au equality with the neighboring provinces ip respect to rates. | A ao ght service is not much needed,—exs cept by The Guardisn. But lower rates { for dey telegram», sent and received while Our merchants sre at Lusiness, would be @ concession to ihis community thst would be really velueble aud would be greatly a, preciated, We have repeatedly pointed out that there is tut one way by which this con- cession can be obtaind. We might as well talk to the wind as threaten the Anglo-American Telegraph Company. To withdragy their present subsidy and trust to the @ompetition «f other telegraph companies would be decidedly risky under existing conditions. The only safe alternative isto add a thousand or two thousand ‘dollars a year to the subsidy which the Angl>-American receives.
