WHERE THE MONEY WENT

l<‘in|lliig itself in the unfortunate position ot' liavint-'f 110

polit-y to prnpoiind for the forthcoming election. Tlte Pat-

riot has .-nit-retl upon a discussion ot' the finances of the local Govermnent. lt publishes two articles, of what it promises will be a series, in its Saturday's issue and ad- vises farmers "to cut these articles out and keep them so

that you will not forget when the time comes."

We heartily second this recommendation for if the

sttct-t-t>tliiig articles be no better than the two in Saturday‘s issue they will prove the best testimonials to their eflit-ient-y and economy the Government could possibly obtain.

Take the one dealing with the salary and expenses of

the Premier anti .-\ttorney General for example. The Pat-

riot submits that t`or 1914 these totalled $3.;'i81_90_ but it fails to give the figures for 1911, satisfying itself with its usual disregard for honesty and fairplay. with giving the Atioriiey General's salary only t'or 1911. .\'ow, the system of accounting followed by the Liberals does not make it an easy nitittr-r to discover actual outlays. or to trace exllellili' tures to their .soiirt-e. A previous l.ibei‘al l’rentier bluntly inlnriiicd thc lioust- when t|ut-stioned abotit his expenses, that Iii- multi not givt- details. .\ll he knew was that when lit- lt-ft liome ht- had so niucli money in his pocket and wlit-ii ht- rt-turned lic had so niuch, anti the difference re- prt-st»tiit»t| his i-xpciises. .\'o one tluestioiied his honesty or iiiit-griiy, though it must be admitted that the rough -aiiil-ready sysit-iii, adopted would not suit the conditions and at-rmiiitiiigs insisted upon by the present Government. The inost saii.st'actory way of comparing expenditures is to take concrete examples of specific outlays, and these l`or- tunatcly. we have readily at hand in the salary of the Attorney General and the Supreme Court expenses. Tak- ing the last year of the Liberal regime and the last year of thc present Government we find them set forth in the l'ublit- _-\t~counts as follows:

‘ Thest- figures speak t'or themselves, showing that the present Govt-riinient has saved no less than 55 per cent. on these items of expenses alone. That is what the coun- lY_\` itaiiis by having an efficient attorney-general who gives his personal attention to his duties. The saving in this department alone .is equal to llie total salaries and pcr- sonal expeiises of the Premier and Attorney-General com- bined for the last year.

We. therefore trust the farmers will follow the l’atriot’s

advice. and cut out its article on the subject, anti while they are at lt. they may as well cut out this llkewiise and piti the two together.

There is nothing like criticism and discussion for the pur-

pose ot' bringing home and accentuating the blexsings and lit-iiefits the farniers Pttloy under the present regime, .- _____*__f,._i.?

HOW THE MONEY WENT

\\‘|ien the new Road Act was ititrodttct-ti the Patriot

lt-il it vigorous campaign against it. and jecred at the tlovertiment for their alleged simplicity in expecting to get road masters to discharge the duties of the important office t`or “fifteen cents a day." Now that the Road Act has proved ii suctesti beyond the most stmguine expecta- tions of the farmers. the Patriot has changed its tune. and howls that the “fifteen cents a day" overseers are over paid The liollowiiess anti inslncerfty of the complaint tnust be niiiiili’est to even the most bigottetl opponent of thc Govcrnnient. What. are the facts?

ln iiill $l7.055.50 was collected by 1.100 overseers atitl

Slit supervisors, and sent to headquarters. That was the lust thc farmers t-ver saw of their money. The Govern- ment spent the money in graft or transferred it to pur- poses other than that for which it was paid, spending little

or nothing on the roads. The farmers had come to look upon the Road Tax as nothing more or less than blackmail.

Those. who supported the Government were immune from the levy, wlille those who were in opposition had to

pay up besides having the chagrin of seeing lt spent upon their neighbors at election times ln the shape of brlbes.'I‘he roads got little or no benefit from lt, with the result that they speedily went from bad to worse

llndt-r the present Government the roadmasters have

been reduced to 467, at fifteen cents a day and ten cents for discharging the dutlm of district registrars for deaths. births anti marriages. and supplying reports on the htilte of the crops for the official returns.

Now. whereas the money formerly collected for the

roads came to Charlottetown and never went back, the money collected Is spent in the di.strlct where it. is collect- ed and the farmers themselves can tell whether or not it is spent advantageously. They have the evidence before ‘their eyes to see where every cent is spent, and no blarney on the part of the Patriot or any other can deceive or dolutie them. The farmers themselves have the control of the expenditure of the Road Tax. either in moneyor by labour, and the fact that the roads were never better than they are now la sufficient evidence of their care and wnttihfulness. The rosdmnsters have no soft fob under the present system. As the Patriot formerly proclaimodfdf-

teen cent; s day is not too much to pay them for their onerous duties. They have to be on the road every day the farmers themselves are working, they have to manage the road machines; and have to let out and supervise con- tracts. They have to collect the tax from those who for various reasons. do not perform thc work themselves, and they have to,get men to take their places and to see that they do the work satiéfactorily. That the new .system has “made good" is admitted by everyone but the Patriot. There is now keen competition between the different dis- tricts to .see who shall have the best roads and this healthy rivalry will, within the next four years, be the means of giving the Province of Prince Edward Island the reputa- tion of having far-and-away the best roads, if not in Can- ada. at least in the Maritime Provinces_

Thus does the honest endeavor of the present Govern-

ment put for ever to shame the graft and incompetence of its Liberal predecessors.

'rits ciintoss Atiainsr GERMANY

Many found it a physical -impossibility to believe the

stories of German cruelty connected with the earlier stag- es of the war, notably in Belgium. They will be compelled. as far as the human mind can do so, not only to believe them all, but to believe that the half has not been toltl. and cannot be told, on reading the deliberate finding ot' the specith Government committee appointed to investigate the matter.

Viscount Br_vce.former British Ambassador at Washing-

ton, was chairman ot' the committee of the British Govern- ment, and with him were associated a number of equally reliable men. The committee was authorized to investigate and report on "outrages alleged to have been committed by German troops during the present war." The report was submitted to Premier Asquith a few days ago.

The document is t-onsidcretl as probably the most

severe arralgnment thus far made of the German military sweep across Belgium, mainly because of the position of Viscount Bryce as a historian, and also because of the care with which the investigation was made, the great number of witnesses whose testimony was examined ami thc mass of evidence now submitted with the report of the committee.

The committee was appointed by Premier Asquith, on

January 22 last, and was given broad instructions to in- vestigate "alleged outrages, the maltreatment of civilians. anti breaches ot' law and established usages of war."

The most important findings of the committee are

summed up in the following conclusions at the close of the report:

“lt will be seen that the committee has come to a de-

finite concltision upon each oi' the heads under which the evidenco has been classified:

“lt is proved: “First-'l‘hat_ there were in many parts of llelgiuni

tit-liberate and systeniiitically organized massacres of tht- civil population, accompanied by man y isolated murders and other outrages.

"Second-That in the conduct of the war generally.

innocent. civilians, both men and women, were murdered in large numbers, women violated, and children murdered.

“Third-That looting. house burning, and the wanton

destruction ot' property were ordered and countenanced by the officers of the German army; that elaborate provision had been made, t'or systematic incendiarism at the very outbreak of the war, and that the burning and destruc- tion were frequently where no military necessity could be alleged, being indeed part ot' a. system of general teroriza- tion.

“Fourth-Tliat the rules and usages of war were fre-

quently broken, particularly by the using_nf_civlliu,ns,_in- cluding women and children, as a shield for advancing forces exposed to llre, to it less degree; by killing the wounded and prisoners, and in tht- frequent abuse of the Iled Cross and the white flag. »

"Sensible as they are of the gravity of these conclus-

ions, the committee conceive that. they would be doing less than their duty if they failed to record them as fully es- tablished by the evidence. Murder, lust and pillage pre- vailed over many parts of Belgium on a scale unparalleled in any war between civilized nations during the last three centuries.

“Our function is ended when we have stated wliai the

evidence establislied, but we may be permitted to express our belief that these disclosures will not have been made in vain if they touch and rouse the conscience of mankind, and we venture to hope that as soon as the present war is over the nations of the world in council will consider what means can be provided and sanctions devised to prevent the recurrence of such horrors as our generation is now witnessliig_”

The torpedoing of the Lusltania was a natural se-

quence to the rest of the war.

nnionrruiib ritosriscrs

The year 1912 was regarded as it banner year in agri-

cultural protluction--wlille last year, 1914 exceeded it by several millions. -

According to statistics recently issued by the Domin-

ion Department of Agriculture, Quebec produced nearly $30,000,000 more from its farms in 1914 than in 1912; Saskatchewan produced $37,000,000 more; Alberta $15,000.- 000 more: British Columbia, $1,000,000 more; New Bruns- wisk $3,000,000; Nova Scotia $1,000,000 and Prince Ed- ward island $2,000,000 more tlinti in 1912. The total re- turns from Caiiadliin farms last year amounted to $638,580, 300 as against $552.77l,500 in 1913 and $557,344,100 iti 1912.

The enormous value of farm crops in 1914 was due

rather to the increased prices consequent upon the war than to an actual increase in production. The increase of $85,808,800 over 1013 is a ray, therefore. out of the black- ness of the war nntl a gleam of hope for the future, The war may, and probably will. continue another year. per- haps more. ln any event its effects upon the producing countries of Europe will continue for many years and the price of farm products in Canada will be above normal. It remains for Canadian farmers to take advant- age of this condition. They will be none the less patriotic if they reap legitimate profits oitt ot' the miseries ot' war. indeed they can show their patriotism in no better way than by increasing the food supply of the dominion and ot’ the Empire.

The season now opening will be the greatest season

I LIBERII. l|ilH|_l.llTl0H

Str.--Lest we regret I wish to recall.

again to the people of this lgland a re- sume of its history, a history, indeed. that well might go down in song and story, for never did man more stead- fastly fight for their individual liber- ties than those noble souls who are our direct sires. When the student of today sees the direct result of our fathers' efforts in behalf of personal liberty treated contemptuously his spirit revolts at this desecration of the things we should hold sacredt ' ‘

it is claimed that this island was

first discovered by John Cabot in 1497 but. if so, England made no claim to it, and France afterward claimed it as a discovery of Verazani made in 1523. However. no settlement ot' any kind was made in 1663 and at the time of the treaty of Foiitainblean which was executed in 1163 Very little progress had been made in the settlement of the island. From this time till 1770 it formed part of Nova Scotia. but ln the latter year ti separate Govemment was granted the Lsland under the guidance of Walter Patterson, one of the proprietors of Lot 19. From 1764 to 1766 n survey the island had been made by Captain Holland, and a division of sixty-seven parts had been made. Which Daft-S were alloted in England among those who had claims against the Crown.

At the time Governor Patterson as-

sumed his duties the Island had about 1,000 inhabitants, but, notwithstand- ing this. they had guniption enough to demand a Legislature, and got it. The first Legislature consisted of 18 mem- bers and met for the first time in 1773, so that our Legislature is older than the American Congress by some years. The members of the Govern- ment were appointed by the Crown anti constituted the Legislative und Executive Council anti were respon- sible only to the Governor. The peo- ple’s representatives had absolutely no voice in the Executive. but their consent was necessary to any new law or imposition of tax. However. if the Legislature was not in accord with the Governor he simply dismis- sed them and called them again at his pleasure. No Kaiser in his wildest dreams ever equalled the autocracy of Governor Smith who in 1814 dismissed the Legislature and did not call it again till 1819, and then. in 1820, hav- ing it disagreement with his Legisla- tors he dismissed them and they were never recalled-till his term was ended ln 1824. We don't have to leave our lsluiitl home, small as it is anti short as its lilstory is, without learning something about autocratic govern- tiieiit, because we had it iii itll its phases.

During all this.time. however, meet-

ings were being held and protests were made against the governor's powers. and constant agitation was matic for responsible government.

When Governor Patterson was ap-

pointed in 1770 we became ti separate Province and in 1851, after eighty years ot' agitation we were granted re- sponsible government under Governor Bannerman, anti our first responsible government was formed under the leadership of the lion. George (‘0les. In 18521 we received maiiliootl suffrage. For 03 years now thc rank and flle have been privileged to vote, bitt, alas, how soon we forget.

Que of' the very first things insisted

upon by the voters of that date was the right to choose in open convention the different caiitlidntcs to represent them in the elections. On nomination days on thc hustings all day would bt- somctiines spent in giving the sup- porters of the different candidates a chance to expound the virtues anti qualifications ol' the different choices. How different now, when the machine takes all from the voters' hands anti, by an autocracy more repellent than Governor Smith’s, shoves a straw man into the electors' hands to be moulded later into a putty legislator.

This farce has gone on so long now

that it is time the people themselves realized where they are at atid insist- ed on controlling their ooiivcntioiis and selections themselves. Some of the nominations that have already taken place should be taken hold of by the_ distritrts and set right. In my own district. the second in Prince, both the candidates are alien to the district, and l consider it an insult to the intelligence of the electors of this district that the retiring member should intimate. by the support ot’ ati outside man, that his and his col- league’s ability were the only ones within the district who were capable of representing it. There are plenty ot’ men within the precincts oi’ this dis- trict capable of representing it intel- ligently anti with quite as much abil- ity as the withdrawing members, either in the local Legislature or any- where else. The retlring members, notwithstanding the promlneiice of their ego have no monopoly of the ability of this district. and every inde- pendent elector should at once take exception to the humiliation thus thrust upon him. At the conveutioii held in Summerside in the Liberal ln- ferest. noinlnations were made by close ballot under the astute guidance of Mr. Buote, of Tignlsh. who thought it obligatory to introduce some well tt-led maclilne methods.

KILTS SUPERIOR T0 TROUSERS.

LONDON, May 13.-The kilt as a

soldier's uniform has proved itself en- tirely superior to the trouser in the wlnter's hard campaign in France. ac- cording to an officer who writes home:

“The_on_ly time l've ever thoutihl

with even a tinge of regret on the trouser‘s l've almost forgotten how to wear have been when l've chanceti to be on guard on a cold and breezy night when the wind maliciously whistles round and about your legs; then you feel involuntarily almost that two thicknesses of cloth might be better than none. But the thought vanishes ns soon as you are relieved and see the guard>room fire again.

“l am told that the Canadian Scof-

tlsh regiment treat their kilts as a sort of dress parade and put on trou- sers when they go into the trenches. This is a very great mistake, for it is in those very trenches that the kilt shines.

For instance, it's no uncommon

thing for a trousered section yho have stood shivering on. their platforms with their wet things clinging to their legs for 24 hours to see with at feeling of envy their kilted comrades coming up through the water to relieve them with their kilts tucked up high out ot' the wet, so that with the exception oi’ feet and puttees they can look for- ward to a comfortable and. all things considered, a warm time instead of a shivery one. For the kilt, being ex- ceptionally thick around the waist and lolns keeps the whole body nice anti warm, and if it does happen to get wet the constant swinging tends to dry it quickly without :t constant clam- iiiy contact with the legs.

“On the night of the tenth, for in-

stance, we were takcii about 7 o'clock through it stream which came over my hips, but the kilt was quite dry. soon, and i felt no ill effect wliatever, t`rom the wetting. although it was a bitterly cold nlglit.

“But it is on the march flint one np-

prcciates the kilt most. There is a delicious coolness as the wind strikes your knees that helps you along. and there is a sense of froctlom about the waist and slioiilders that the trouser- etl man will never feel.

"When you are in billefs on u hard

wood or stone floor, all you have to do is to take off your kilt anti spread it on the floor, then with your blanket starting f`rom the bottom of it and brought forwartl again over your feet you have a hed which keeps all thc cold aiitl hardness away.

"ln actual figltting the iuoral effect

of the kilt is of value. and its asso- ciations with hard and terrible fight- ing are so well known anti appreciat- ed that the vcry sight of bare knees and waving kllts has an effect on the ciiemy as well as on yoitrst-lvcs."

GRATITUDE

The British Embassy at Tokyo re-

cently received froni a Japanese sol- dier iii Forniaso 8s. Sd., equivalent to over a montli's pay, as a gift to the war relief funds. The gift was accom- panied by a letter, saying:

“Respectfully unfold myself at fol-

lows:

“l am simply a soldier. Before l

enlisted, a certain English lady did a lot for nie in various ways. Since then 1 have read some English hooks and have been greatly struck with the fact that the British possess a rich public mortality and many good qual- ities which distinguish a great people.

“The year before last l was ordered

to loin the Japanese army in Formosa, and took part in the expedition against the Taroma tribe. When l was thus engaged I became ill and returned to Taihoku, where 1 was in the military hospital over twenty days. it was there that ldeeply pondered over the kindness of an English lady whom I had niet hi Tokyo some years ago.and all the sufferings that 1 have endured in the expedition ever since, discharg- ing my duty towards my country, has, given me an overwhelming sym- pathy towards the bereaved families of thc dead soldiers and those dis- abled. , ,

“Even if the least member ofa fam-

ily of a disabled or dead soldier could be helped througli tlils small contrlbu~- tloii, no joy could be greater to me than this.

“l bow my head resecptfully to bid

yoit good-bye."
