A CORRUPT PROPOSITION.

Tue Patriot has quoted a report which 1

appeared in “ the leading dailies ” publish

edin St. John and Halifax, relative to Mr.

Davies’ Jate-t attitude towards the Chiz-

necto Ship Railway, in refutation of Tue Exawiver’s criticism based upon the re- port of the Ch guecto Post published on the spot

ate in this quotation. While it puts a new

Our contemporary is unfortun-

inte-pretation upon his change of front and wonderful difference of tone in respect te the Chignecto Ship Railway, it exhibits Mr. Davies as one who would have been glad to make a bargain about the matter We read in the Patriot that,— ,

“ During Mr. Davies speech, Mr. W. D Douglass, a leading Conservative, arose awd asked Mr. Davies wha: would be his policy as lealer of the Maritime Liberals, regariing the extevsion of time for the completion of the Chignecto Marine Rail war.

“Mr. Davies came forward promptly and said he was tempted to answer Mr. Douglass’ question by asking another. Suppose it were the Liberal policy to sup port an extension of time, was Mr, Douz- jass and his friends prepared io support his friend Mr. Loan.

“Mr. Douglass was silent and the aud- ience manifested their appreciation of this dilemma by continued app'ause.”

ing paragraph :

“During the past vear a deputation con- sisting of the clergymen of aii denomin- ations in Charlottetown, His Lordship

sishop Macdonald, and the superintendent of this school, waited upon the Govern- ment of Prince E.lward Island, and strong- ly urged the claimsZof the blind to a free education. This deputation was cordially received by Premier Peters and colleagues, and while no definite promises were made, the deputation retired with the assurance that the matter would receive full and earnest consideration. As a result of this interview the legislative appropriation of P. E. 1. to the school was doubled. While this increase in the grant gives a measure of eati-faction to your board it does not meet the wishes of the frienda of the blind iu P. E. I;it makes no statutory provision for the elucation of those deprived of * ght, and recognizes no clains of those who are blind to be educated like other children at the public expense. The Gov- ernment, legislature and people of Prince Edward Island should see to it that the tue blind, who are already han licapped in race of life, suould have at least equal op- portunities with those who sre fully «quipped for the struggle for self-main- tenance.”

that that place was the destination the cay

ecribed. Such wasthe case with many thera of the moet intelligent em grant- who were thus trepanned to leave their

mother country.

Phe writer of this statement learned the foregoing from Mr. LeLacheur when. he calied on him on a cold, stormy night at his ship-building yard at Orwell, a place about half way between bis home at Mur- ray Harbor and Charlottetown, return ft the House of Assembiy, when he asked me to lend my effurts to vards relieving the people from a thral- dom as depressing on the agriculturist as that of Ireland. This conversation took place fifty yeara ago. Previously to it, LeLacheur, with Cooper and Maein- tosh, had canvassed King’s County, aad after a general election the Excheators ob- tained a majority. It was annoying to the Tories, who never conjectured so low ly a party were likely to displace them in the Assembly. What madeit more aggra vating was the return of Alexander Ree for the constituency of Malpeque, one of

the best informed districts of the I-land. Ic |

was there he taught the grammar schovi for some time, and made himeef ac- jnainted with the people and the politics of the country. He was a Scotchman and having hala collegiate elucation at Glasgow, was by far the mo-t l-arne! man

in the legislature and ove of the best in- ;

formed.

Captain Stewart, having become well stricken in years, had retired from politic- al life, when Jose Pope, Exq., after- wards the Honorab!e Joseph Tope, filled his place as | alder of the House of As- sembly and that of the Tory party. The faction could not have fallen on a person more capable of carrying out their views. Mr. Pope was a man not unlike to Reho- boam, King of Israel, who said to his pe- ple, “My father chastised you with whips, but [ will chastise you with scorpions.” This threat the escheators felt to their sorrow. It was arranged by the Conservy- ative party to take the leaders of te es- cheators into the custody of the sergeant- at-armes, thereby depriving them of a majority, on the charge of acting in a dis- loyal manner, in having passed,at a public meeting at Hay River, a resolution binding

the tenantry to withhold the payment of |

rent untila satisfactory settlement was made of the right of the claimants of the township to exact the paymentof rent. A resolutio: to this effect passed the House of Assembly early in the morning, so when the three leading escheators came in to take their seats, they were arrested by the Sergeant-at-arms and brought to the Bar of the House to answer for what the House termed, their disloyalty. Tie House required that they should acknow ledge that they did wrong, that they were leading the people to act- of di-loyalty, by setting the law of the country at defiance in regard tothe payment of rent, requiring a written acknowledgment to this eff-c’. This they wonld not give, when the Ser- geant was ordered to withdraw the offend ers fromthe Bar, and place them for custody with the vagabonde in jail. There they remained three days.

It appears on after consideration that the House theught that this proceeding was rather unconstitutional. The three members were liberated from prison and retained in custody of the Sergeant-at-arme, not only during the session but for the two following ones,evyen to the enl of the House. It was a most unexampled act of tyranny depriving t'ye constituencies of a representation as well as an unju-titiable way of turning a minority into a majority It aroused the feeling of the country, andl that of King’s County in particular, against the Government. A'‘though rents were hard to collect previously, it new be- came generally impossible to do so, be- cause the bail.ffs could not find chattels to levy on. These were driven into the woods and other hiding places. Ne.ther could the bailiffs find shelter or food or aught elee but the execrations of the peo- ple along the dreary coast to the eastward they were living on during the winter sea- son. Sothey made returne accordingly, and were pleased to get back to Charlotte- town.

These facts having been brought before the Government, or rather, I ought to way, before the claimants of the townships, for the latter and the former power were one,

the Government decided that it was necessary to call on the mil itary t) aid the civil power

mn collecting rent, To this call the Lieut.- Gore:nor r-sponded, and on a fine, clear, frosty morning in midwinter Her Maj:sty's

forces, a hunured strong, rank and _ file, were marched out of barracks tO Queen

Square, where the conveyance of fifty sleds were provided to carry them sixty miles t put down the rebels.

It was quite an exciting time that morn. ing. The Government, the members of the House of Assembly and many of the citizens assembled to witness the depart- ure of the troops, with the sheriff and his attendants, together with the troops num- bering at least two hundred persons, After the captain had taken orders along with the sheriff from the Government, the cavalcade moved off with the congratula- tions of the Government for their success.

The weather was remarkably fine and

| the travelling good during the time oecu-

pied in the campaign. The soldiers on their return wheeled into their barracks on the fourth night after their absence evidently in fine spirits. The Captain re- ported most favourably of the people. He said that there was nu opposition to the Sheriff and that a more kindly and loyal eet of feilowshe never met with. he

soldiers were well pleased with the jaunt for they had not only met their country- men but also some relations and they said they would never forget the pleasant nights passed at East Point.

During the absence of the troops a great deal of fear pervaded the town, a rumor had gone abroad to the effect that a bod» of the escheators had left their home to take revenge on the Charlottetonians by burning the place, from which dread they were not relieved until the bugle sounded and the roll of the drum announced the return of Her Majesty’s forces; then the brave rejviced and the old women slept the sleep of the just.

ONE OF THE OLD LIBERALS

Sin,—A communication in yesterday's Patriot signed “A Schoolmate of Tom’s,” givinga brief outline of the successful career of a West iver young man, Thomas M. Costello, who left his native home in

Mr. John Costello was one of the zood olf Liberal, who, with a large ma jority of that party, joined in with the Party in this Province, who advocated the construction of our P. BE. 1. Railway, and also the union sf our Is'and with the other Provinces of Canala. This Progressive Party, to-day known as the Liberal Conservative Party, ie largely

composed of the sons of the old liberal party who linked their political destiues with the Party of Progress and left the

ranks of the old Liberal Party to join the old Tories and Land Agents, on the forma tien of that party commonly called Gri‘s, though they style themselves Liberals. It would indeed be a misnomer to call the faz-end of Toryiem Liberals.

A CONSERVATIVE VICTORY.

McGillivray Elected in North Ontaric. Grit Candidate at the Foot of the Poll.

Teroxrto, Dec. 13.

The Grita were “wiped out” yesterday in North Ontario. At the last election held in thie county, Mr: Cockbarn (Lib- eral) polled 1,952 votes, while 2,206 were recorded for Madil!, the late Conservative member. The Patron move nent is a Grit invention in North Oatario, and the Grits hoped for great things yesterday. Bat they have met their Waterloo instead. So far 25 out of 36 polls have been heard from, with this result. McGillivray (Con- -ervative) 1,469; Brandon (Patron) 984; Gillespie (Grit) S14. Had the Grit eandi- date, who is a Roman Cathelic, not been supported strongly in Mara by his co-reli- gionists, his defeat would nave been still more decisive. Some of the remaining jolls are Conservative strongholds, and MeGillvray’s majority may be still farther increased,

LATER. Toronto, Dee. 13. Thirty-three places give McGillvray (Liberal - Conservative) 1996; Brandon (Patron) 1,266; Gillespie (Opposition) 1.065. The remaining three places wil: increase the Liberal-Conservative major- ity, Ortawa, Dee. 13.

THE MANITOBA QUESTION.

Hon. Mr, Ives Says the Govern- ment Will Stand cr Fall

BY OBEDIENCE 10 THE LAW.

Moxtreat, Dec. 13. fF

Hen. Mr. Ives, Minister of Trade and }} Commerce, was asked ;esterday what ef- [, fect the resignation of Hon. Mr. Wallace f would have. ;

“ft will have the effect of satisfying the j Roman Catholics of Quebec on the one hand as indicating that the Government is in earnest, and on the other it will have considerable effect on the Orangemen of Ontario in another direction.”

“The Goverement, then, is absolutely determined upon introduciog remedial legislation ?”

“Unquestiovably the Government is bound to carry out the law whatever the result. lt is prepared to stand or fall by obedience to the law.”

“And should you fall ?”

“Then the platform we occupy is one from which a Goverument can fall with credit. A Government can afford to be defeated in an‘ attempt to carry out the plain law.”

“But the law is a declaration; it ie not mandatory.”

“The Privy Council has declared that a grievance exist*; that grievance, if not re- dressed, will grow, it will foster, it will become a’tumor it will st last become can- cerous. The Government simply under- tukes to carry out the law in order to re- dress a grievance felt by certain portions of the population, which grievance has been declared to exist by the highest tribunal ofthe empire. In other words ‘he Government simply propotes to apply the principles of fair play to a:! clesses of the country. If upon that i--n- the Gov- ernment be defeated, it is @ migsiou upon which it can weil afford to suffer de- feat.”
