Charlottetown, P. E. I.
May 22nd 1918
Dear Sir,-
ln the past a great deal of money
had been paid towards pauper relief
in the City of Charlottetown, includ-
ing the support of persons 'sent to the
Infirmary and to Falconwood Hospital
for the Insane. for the relief of indig-
ent persons within the town and also
for coal.
Some mutual arragement will have
to he made between the Government
and the City Council for the care of
these persons. The town has. certain 1
reasonable to assume that I would use
auch tactics witbthe party whom l
assisted in power. and your accusa-
tion ia too small for further comment.

Dear Sir:-~
Your unsigned letter of the 18th

In the first place, permit me to say
that I did not go west to enjoy a holl-
day. but to attend the session of the
Supreme Court "where there was a
criminal case to be prosecuted.
I certainly remember your speaking
to me about the Campbell case. I ask-
ed you to make application to have
this case admitted to the Infirmary.
You promised to do so. but so far as
am aware. you did not fultll your
obligations to fulfil towards these promise. The matter was brought to
peopln and hereafter no person will my mention by Dr. Mciuuisn s day

in the Infirmary. W
I notice further that you told the
worthy woman, who was .being_kept
by the Free Dlspensary. that she was
a verv fit person for the Infirmary,
but all efforts to have her placed there
have proved unsvailing. You have
made no application to me to place
any such person in the Infirmary. The
only application I received' was for a
person who was in the Hospital. This
application was made by Dr. Mc‘Mlll-
an and permission to have this person
.placed in the Provincial 'Infirmary was
granted .
lf you know of any other case, then
I should say that. as Mayor you have a
right to come in to me and tell me of
such case.
On the whole I consider that your re-
marks in reference to my letter, in
view of our conversation, were quite
npcallsd for and that they were made
for one purpose only, and that to try
and prejudice the public mind ln the
matter.

Dear S~ir:--
Yours of the 12th instant received

plied with my request when I inter-
viewed you, and' made necessary ar-
rangements' for those two cases of
deserving poor. as you promised to do
before going West. enjoying a holiday,
and leaving those .poor creatures to
the exposure of cold and hunger.
things would have been different. _
You informed me on that occasion.
that if I secured the slillliliiilfis Of
Rev. Father Maurice and Dr. McMil-
lan, you would admit those two into
the Infirmary. ,awaiting the Confer-
ence with a Committee of the City-
Conncll. This was not done. the rea-
son why. l presume you know.
That man Campbell in the City Hos-
.pital could have remained where he
was until you returned.
I am of opinion that we are
right in assuming that the Hospital
for the Insane and' the Infirmary are
Public Institutions. maintained out. of
the Public Treasury. and it is not the
prerogative of our Premier or any Pub-
lic Official to close its doors from any
deserving poor or insane, when the
standard regulations are complied
with. '
After my interview with you and
previous to the meeting of the City
Council. I received a personal letter
from Mr. McCsrey. President of the
Anti-Tuherculosos Society and was
waited upon twice by Miss DeBlois.

he deepest penetration of the Aus-
trians is west of Meoto on the lower
Piave sector. The enemy, advanclngi
along the railway leading to Vr-nice,
is about seven and a half miles 'vest
of the river. Dealing with tlic f- rudi-
tions on the lower Piave. the .\\is-
irian official reports say:
“The Foasslta canal has been cross-
ed at some points. The Italians are
staking everything in order to stop
the advance. In narrow stretches pris-
oners have been taken from the num-
erous units which have been thrown
together."
AUSTRIAN LOSSES HORRIBLE
Describing this same battle along
the Foasslta canal the Italian report
says that “every yard of ground was
the theatre of epic struggles in which
our own and Allied airplanes look
part. bornbarding with 15.000 kilo-
grams of bombs and firing tens of
thousands of machine gun rounds into
the vulnerable targets offered by thc
enemy troops forced into narrow
space on tho right bank of thc rivcr.
The battle is continuing bittcrly. The
enemy in order to preserve some of
the initial advantages gained by him,
takes no heed of the losses which our
rifle flre and the guns of our airmen
have been inflicting in the past ilve
days."
From these ofllclal reports it is
apparent that one of the great at-
tacks of the war is being fought. out

near the Adriatic coast, some scven-
teen miles from Venice. That city
will go to the victor. The Italians
fight so that the "Queen of the Adri-
atic," rescued over half a century ago
from Austrian tyranny, shall not
again pass under the heel of the con-
queror. The Austrians. confronted
with one of their great failures of war
along the Alpine battle line, struggle
with desperation to reach and occu-
py Venicc_ so that the disaffected
population at home may not be able
to point tn a complete failure as a
reason for overturning the govern-
ment. ~»and perhaps even the Hsps-
burg dynasty. -
On the greater part of the front
there has been no more than local
actlviliy. ln the region south of Mont-
ello t e Austrians tried- to break s
way through to the plain near Sovilla
and ssy they occupied- several lines
of Italian trenches there, but the ital-
ians still nrmly hold the river bank
immediately to the south of the Mont-
ello and~ the enemy makes no real
progress, although employing on a
narrow front four divisions of storm
troops.
