The con are in it for Hlow much it have for other people is not known. We have Mr. Tarte’s statement that Mr. Greensbields bas* made large Sacrifices for the liveral party. and itis pretty wel] known, that his name has been on a larve Mr. Green shields will get his contract if Mr. Tarte can procure it for him.

Now we perceive that the mi sionery work in bebal of the arrangement } fairly opened in the government organs, rhe Torouto Globe ctt with & treatise. It begins by a strongly mislead - Ing statement concerning the suggestions of corruption. It saves: “Senator Miller's motion for#n investigation was promptly accepted by Sir Oliver Mowat, and he and his fellow liberals voted for the resolution. There was nothing to prevent the investi- gation goiug on,and on the conservative majority in the senate and on its commit tee must be laid the onus of the delsy.’ Now the Globe knows that whileSir Oliver Mowatt agreed to an investigation, he srongly urged that;the investigation should be postponed until next session. In order to secure this postponement, the Minister of Justice gave his word that nothing would in the meantime be done to commit the country to lease the road or even to take over the rolling stock. Sir Oliver pleaded the late hour of the session and the desire of the members to leave, and contended that no interest would suffer by

the proposed delay. Of course ‘this plea did not prevent the investiga- tion, but it was understood to be the

reason that the inquiry did not take place.

Equally incorrect is the Toronto Globe's |

contention that Mr. Blair’s statement of ihe prospective gain by the extension was accepted by the opposition leaders. correctly states that the proposed payment byway of rental was $210,006, and that according tothe argument of Mr. Blair, the increased earatngs would yay the rent and leave a large margin. But when the Glebe says the fact that Mr. Foster aud Sir Charlies Tupper refused to co»mit themselyes as opposed to the idea leads to the suspicion that they are fairly we)l convinced that Mr. Blair’s cakeoula- tions are well founded it states the case unfairly.

Wharever the Globe may suspect the plain fact is that both Sir Charles and Mr. Foster opposed the whole programme, and exposed’Mr. Blair’s caleulations to merci- less and destruetive criticism. showed that the proposed extension would add one more to the already too numerous lines between Quebec and Montreal tbat it would givea through route frou: Mon- treal to Halifax a good deal longer than that through st. Jcls, and one from Moutreal to Se Soho 80 much longer than the present route a to be out of the competition altogether. They, witn Senator Wood, Mr. Poweli and Mr. Haggart showed the utter unreliability of Mr. Blair’s calculations as te the pro- spective revenue, end proved that it was propo-ed to pay donble for the road what it-was worth in the market, and gve four or five times #8 much to the owners as they had invested in it. The Globe, of course, know: all this. Butit seems to have accepred the jobof arguing the case for the government in order to persuate the-suspicous liberals who are maxing

trouble. The undertaking must be the more unpleasant for the Globe, because before the contract was completed the

Globe could see nothing but harm in the proposal. The order is now to rush the thing through and give Mr. Greenshbilds hie mission, and all the government or- gans are expected to take a hand.—St Joho-Sun.

Sir—Is there not a Board of Health in the East Royalty? Ifthere is I would adwise them to visit the St. Peter's road near the bridge west of the cemeteries and they will find in the fields there contigu- ous @ the public road as vile an eccamu- lation of filth as was ever collected. The sraell from this is so offensive that people are afraid to pass. ‘Ihe men who are guilty of this nuisance should be pua- ished.

gentleman was strictly business, however, and was not leng in making himself known. He seemed pleased when sume. of the staff remembered that celebrated paper suit he started ont in and the inconvenient time he had when a merciless rain came down and removed certaiu very necessary portions of it. Mr. Phelps, it will be remembered, made a side wager of $3,000 with a New York club that he would travel in every coantry in the world in three years time and re- turo with $3,000 made over aad above his expenses. He was to earn this money by selling-and advertising, but was not allowed to puta piice upon anything he sold. Neither was he allowed to beg or borrow, there was no stipulation as pegards stealing. He looks honest, however, and this probably account® for the absence of the Jatter condition. Mr. | Phelps, it may be further etated, had to starten his trip with no wealth excepting | three postage stamps, and without clothes. | He was locked up ir a club room and his: clotwes taken from him. With twooft*e

} etamps he bought a New York World, out!

of which he made a suit of cluthes,and the: remaining stamp be anctioued for a dollar, / He subsequently received another dollar, for blacking a pair of shoes for a member of the clabe He afterwards earned from $5 to $10 a day by sitting in the windows | of Jarge departmental etores, and also} wort.ed as waiter in hotels and as a street} advertiser. Mr. Phelps is in town to do’ business, Already he has accumulated | $2,500 of his wager. He has eleven months to earn the remaining $50@. and has yet to visit the prinerpal cities of Mexi- coand South America, Mr. Phelps is selling his photographs in Charlottetown. The other party to the wager keeps treck of Mr. Prelps by obliging him to register atevery telegraph station when riding a whee), which return, wilh a weekly report sheet, he must send ineach week. He is alxo followed by means cf the daily vapere in each olace he visita,.and in other ways.

Sr. Josern’s Coxvent. —It is understood that the Sisters of St. Joseph’s Convent schoo! have decided to open a department for small hoys at §the beginning of the coming school year. It is unnecessary to speak In terms of praise concerniug the excellent work done by the teaehers of this school since its inception. They have always shown themselves to be painstaking and conscientious teachers, and their exer- tions have ever been productive of the most satisfactory resulte. Nodoubt the step they are now taking in opening a class for boys will be welcomed by many parents who are desirous of baving their boys receive a good training, not only in the ordinary curriculum ofa public school education, hut alsoin the many other requirements which are so necessary for the proper formation of good character. The enterprise of these lady teachere deserves the most favorablecou: mendations of the public, and there is every reason to believe that the young boys who may have the good fortune to attend this class will receive a good education in the true sense of the word.
