TAXING THE CIiyY.

{

Sirn,— ‘ihe Proviscial 4zovernment ex- | pended last year $65,440.04 in pubic | work~ ouiside of Chu:loitetown. To meet this, tnere was $28,187.03 of land tax, and about $1,500 income tax, a total of $29,- 687.03 coliected from the country disiricis, leaving the euormous balance of almoet $40,000 expended tor public works outside ef Charlouetown in excess of the taxes collected from the same. sauvrce.

The peculaiar sysjem of provincixl book- keeping prevents accuracy io arriving at details; but the income, electricglight aud other corporation taxes combined with recepts from liquor licanses paid by the | citixens of Chariottetowa tathe provincial ' treasurer direct w.lj amount to about $) 4. | 000 00 per annual, or one .balt as much as the iuvei iaud tax coilected trom the whole province.

“The Poorhouse’ appeared to be as clean and’ comfortable as its overcrowded and dilapidated condition permits,”— so says the Grand Jury.

“ The Jail may be briefly described as a disgraceto the Province,”—this is the pithy and true description of the Grand Jury.

' borough terries. Inthe country they collect $3 in taxes

and spend $6 in_ public works In this city they collect $14 im taxes and give us back less than

$4 in public works. This is not a rob- very of Peter to pay a legitimate debt to Paul. It is a rapacious robbery of oue to improperly enrich the other. The Guar- dian suggests as a remedy an emuiation of the Federal Government’s treatment of the city of Ottawa. The great drawback to this is au empty treasury and a condi- tion of metaphoric bankruptcy. A gacri- fice would be preferable to afurther increase in the public debt, es- pecially to those interested in the weifare | of the province.

LIVING IN THE STATES.

Mr J:nes Fhillips Pays a Visit to His Old Home -Life and Labour in the Great Republic.

Mr. James Phijl ps was for many years

, one of Charlottetown’s most respected ie Provincial Hos-! habitants.

About twelve years ago he removed with his tamily to the United States, aud afier visitiog all the Atlaxtic coast ttates from Maine to Florida, he is at last settled in Worcester, Mase., where he | bas established and is conducting @ fiour- | ishing business. Recently he came bark | to see his age d mother and other relatives | at Murray Harbor, and hie relatives and

' friends in this city. Of corrse he called

jupen his oid frend Tae Examiner. We | were glad “to see him lookiog hale and

| hearty, and only a liile older ooking as a long Ordinary | people, Mr. Phillips says, will do better in Prince Edward I-/and than they can do in any partof New England. There is not much demand now in the United States labour market, owivg largely to the im- mense number and variety of the machines used in all the factories and to the Euro pean immigrante—people from Ltaly, Austria, Hungary, Rusria, Germany, France and otuer countries who covtinue to pour into the country ani who are willing to labour for very small wages.

United States ivdustries have now reachea such perfection, and the manu - facturers there possess so many advan- | tages,that they are now competing success~ ; faily in the European markets and intend to do so in the fature much more than in the past. As for the nativesborn United States workmen there are, Mr. Phillips says, none more skillful and industrious, none who'will stand more labour or fati- gue in the whole world. Business in the States is,'he sleo reports, conducted upoo very sound principles. Merchants and traders there are,for the most,part ecrupu- pulously honest dnd prompt. They cau’t afford to be auything else,tor if they were they would lose ‘businese,

As for the #nr with Spain, Mr. Phillips Pays it was very popular, because it was entered upon for the purpose of freeing Cuba and other Spanish coionies uoder the heel of @ tyrants mismanagement, But the idea of subjugating the Philippines, — the people of the United States don’t like it, and will probably have a good to say about it within the next (wo years.

Mr. Philips sees # good many changes ‘and improvements in Charlottetown and throughout ihe eastern section of the pro- vince. Canada continues to flourish under the old N. P., even though another party is in office ; and Mr. Phillips thinks that the conduct of the Jatter may fiily be com- pared with that of the hangman who appropriated his victim’sclothes.
