3 _ Thé Patriot, inspired, no doubt,- by lt-s long’ con- élrinued bluff, has for several days past been trying fltto make its readers believe that neither Premier "Bell nor any of the Liberal candidates had ijljot to increase taxation. The attempt argues a very f‘ our opinion of the intelligence or the memory of ~ s readers. The Patriot knowsgas every intelligent ‘ Iersoni in the province knows, that ‘the whole Bell mpaign was conducted on the understanding thajt 1.‘ f_. the Liberals were returned to power there would e, no increase of taxation. The-Patriot now knows. ‘its every intelligent person knows, that the Liberal ptimpaign was a piece of thefoulcst deception ever practised in this province. ' ‘ A few days ago, in response to lbuentqchallenges, we {what Mr. Bell meant hitunifesto :

, _ “With, proper econ zvenue of aPPboximate v _ [government should have been able to apply consid- _;erably more than $30,000 towards the increase. of Eteachers’ salaries.” ' i; ‘- -‘ The Patriot of course declined to express an fopinion. Will it now do so? Was there any. hint in ‘this that the then revenue '

. "mifl-Jl‘ omy, out of their additional re- ly $2,000,000 this (Arsenaultl-

was l idiot a direct promise to the electors that the B911 1‘ ‘overnment could pay the teachers out of the then '3 avenue at least a little more than the Arscnuult ‘government had donc? If this was not the meaning "I it will the Patriot tell us just what meaning Mr. fiéll expected t‘hc people ‘to get out of it? “Was there Zznyhint in it. that “with proper economy _ the mem- t‘ ors would be able to vote themselves an lncreaseof J50 per cent in their own salaries? The audacity Qgtpmpting this belated bluff comes with poor grace _ the Patriot which during the campaign howled douder and more brazenly regarding the promised Liberaleconomy even MI‘; $3911 QR any 01, 1115 ‘candidates. In scream headlines it warned the Warmers against the “iiii . ‘tous?’ tnxof $75000 P10; ‘posed by Premier Arscnault to increase teachers lsalaries. This, it declared, was til-e way the Conser’; ‘Natives, if re-elected, would “pile it on thefarmers. t g1", , It complained in tearful capitals, and gave I as ione of mlany similar "rnment should be defeated, that “the government I ‘askept on the so-called War and Health Tax of 0:000 a yearaftcr the need of it had passed.” Did Ytllis give the electors any intimation the revenue was ‘Eillsulficint, that the taxes must be increased? _ l. Premier Bell held, and the Patriot re-echoed 1t, gthat the War and Health tax should be abolishetlats grate was sufficient revenue without it and a0 U161!’- 1 "st session they not only partrally re-enacted ltbutj "about quadrupled all the o her taxes. _ 1 YT“ Now we know the Patriot will dodge all this; Qyvill squirm around the points "at issue and Whine lthat the Guardian is abusing it. but it cannot deceive eople. Its bluff is a laughing stock to all who it and in fact we owe ourreaders an apology lgprwpsting so much space over it.
