OTTAWA, March 5.--Prof. Adam
Silortt, Chairman of the Civil Servico tlomrnissioli, made an astonishing con- fession to-day. He issued a statement to the press lil which he admits that his only authority for his charge against the Government, that it had dismissed two thousand employees and had them replaced by tell thou- sand to do their work, was the Ottawa prec Press. the Liberal organ in the capital. Prof. Shortt admits that he never saw the return alid took this statement ill u bitterly partisall organ
as his authority for a. most serious charge against the Government, which had been received by every Liberal paper across the continent. Prof. Shortt’s confession has not increased confidence in him as a man for the head of the Civil Service Commission. lt is felt that Prof. Shortt in making a statement which, as head of the Com- mission, he should have known was false, whether he ever saw the return or not, is open to the charge of the worst kind of partisanship, and coni- plete lack of appreciation of the re- sponsibility of his position.

OTTAWA, March 5.-All important
official announcement was made by the Government to-night that arrange- ments have been made with the Ad- miralty to provide eighteen vessels to ciisuro ll tri-weekly service hctweeil (‘snnda and France for the convey- alice oi' the large supplies which are bcilig contiliunilysliipped from Caiiaila illidcr orders given by the imperial Government. in addition to these ships, colliers conveying coal tr0Ill Great. Britain t_o Huiifux for Admiralty use will lie utilised on the return voyages for the carriage of supplies. 'l‘lio Prime Minister will likely make a statement ill the House of Commons oil the subject on Monday.
Canada has reason to be proud of
ilie promptitude and regularity with which supplies for tile War Office and the Admiralty have been transported from Canada acroqs the Atlantic. This had been due to tile eiiergy alll! f0_I’€' sight which characterised the action ol' the Government ill dealing with serious difficulties which arise by roasoii of it shortage of toniiugv f0l` the Atlantic .Ocean trade ports. AS is well known this shortage was occasioned hy the nppropriutioli and ivltildrllwal from thc Atlantic service for Admiralty purposes oi' ii vcry lurgc proportion oi' the stcllinsiiips hitherto cnlployeii iii that service. Shortly after the declaration oi' war the Cuna- diuli Government, appreciating lI\9 Im' portaiice of securing temporarily the
transport with credit to himself and with ndvulitage to the country.
close oi' thc St Lawrence navigation, about 120,000 ions oi' imperial army supplies were forwarded to British alid French ports. During the months of December and January 50,000 tons were shipped from St .ioliii and Hali- fax. 'i‘his vast tonnage was hauled by ciiartcrcd vessels and at freight rates averaging those prevailing in iiornlai times. Taking into consideration the scarcity of tonnage alid ilie war rates which had otherwise prevailed, this was il notable achievement. The sav- ilig thus effected runs into very con-
Canada but to the War Office and the Admiralty.
About the end of January Mr Harris
drew tho attention oi' the Government to the growing scarcity of tonnage and the probability of advancing rates and

They stated that their boat was sunk at 9 o'ciock last night- `by a British destroyer in the (tliannel, off Dover.

Mat.liiesoil. discharging tilc function il Ia brief speech. Addresses were also ‘delivered by Mayor Sauiiders, Holi. Chas. Dalton, lion. Murdoch McKin- non and Iir Gauthier. A i'ull report of that meeting appeared in yester- liay's Guardian. Throughout the afternoon agricultural conferences and domestic science lectures occu- pied the utieiltioli of the visitors. an especially good paper on “Red Cross Work " being also coiiiribiiicd by Mrs Beiijnniin Rogers.
in the evening the hail of the builti-
ilig was crowded lit a public meeting. when excellent ndlircsses were deliver- ed by prominent speakers. Rev. Dr P. i'.‘. Gauthicr, president of the Seed Fair, occupied the chair and iiitrn- duced the speakers, the first oi' wlioni was ills Worship Mayor Suuiidcrs.
and he was particularly pleased at being present. oil this occasloll because thcy had such a magnificent building :ls tllat in which they were. In former years there had been some difficulty in finding accommodation for the holding ot' their mcetiligs, but now thcy possessed a hail oi' whit-_ii thc_county could be proud. it rcflcct- ed grcnt credit on the Government that, appreciaiiiig the fact. that this was nn entirely agricultural comnlun- ity, they had secli fit to do cvcrytliilig they possibly could to fosicr :ind pro- mote -the inlillstry of furiiiilig in tlic province. Not only had they given that building, hilt iiicy were giving short courses ill Ciiarioitciowli i`or the helicflt of thc young ilicii. They wero sending iileli throughout thc length and breadth of the province, educated along thc lines ot' agriculture. teaching uiiii iiistrilctiiig fllc farmers of the country. Besides all this, there was the lloliicstic science branch of which it great many ladies were taking adv:-ilitage. Altogether, every- thing tiirit could reasonably be cx- pected wns being done by tho Govern- ineilt, slid they had reason to be proild. in return for all this. he urged the farmers to rcciprocate and do all in their power to lnakc ilio Seed Friir a continued success from year to year. Perhaps, owing to the war, they had not been able to devote the attention to the fair this year that tiicy should have given, hilt still they must bear ill mind that if the fair was to he the success they all wanted it to lie thc farmers iilust cn-operate and take li greater interest in thc exiiihitioiis. All iniportalit :iliiioiilicciiiclit of thc Prcniicr, hc coiitiliiicd, would doligiit tlioni ali, rind that was, that not only were they givcli that filio building, bilt he ulidcrstood it was the inteiltioii of the Government to iilive installed in it n domestic science deparinieiit under the colitroi of some competent lndy. That was something they should all be pleased to hear. The Premier had also stated tlilit in coil- nection with the library tile latest and most up-to-date papers on agriculture and fishing would he supplied, so that not only the people of fhc town but also of the surrounding coulitry could come in and read these papers and understand the most scientific and improved methods of farming and fishing. if they failed to take advan- tage of all these excellent opportuni- ties, it was their own fault.
Dr Gauthier, before introducing the
next speaker, niridc a few remarks on the Fair. He said that the number of exhibits at the present fair was not as large as at former fairs, but they were going to meet the management of the Fair and endeavour to ascertain in what way things could be improved. I-ie expressed the opillion that the Government should be given every credit for having, with conlmendabie promptitude, secured the Agricultural Building as soon as the proposition of acquiring it was put up to them. The thanks of the people of Prince County were due them. Dr Gauthier then spoke on the war and the wonderful patriotism which it had shown in the Belgians_ I-le said that the war had taught them a lesson; it had shown them clearly, when they compared the agricultural activities of that little country with those here. that in this province “ we do not know the first thing about gardening."

courses. the women’s institutes-
; which in zt short time would como to Ibe regarded as the right arm of tile schools of the province-the domestic science work, for which there had been over three hundred applications. etc. Mr McKinnon gave a. compre- hensive and interesting review of the activities of the Department of Agri- culture, and in conclusion urged them
not to leave the building idle.
The Premier, Holi. J. A. Mathieson,
|suid they had heard with some regret that the number of exhibits at the present seed fair was not quite so large as in some former years. That might or might not he ll disadvantage, but ho thought that the absence of sonic bag.-i of grain and baskets of potatoes was of very much less con- serliiciicc than the absence of people would be, and he failed to see-any fuiiilig off. if they were to judgehy thc splendid audience that was pres- elit at nooli in the room below 'and' ‘again at that grand meeting that night. He had had tile pleasui'e._0f meeting the people of Prince County in that hall on many former occasions, and he dldn't think there was ever a more representative meeting assem- bled for a similar purpose as that gathering. He thought that all cir- cuillstalices taken into consideration. vt-ry satisfactory progress had been mndo. lic upprociated very higliiy the rclnarks made by the Mayor. It was not always that efforts met with an expression of approval so frank and i'ilil. Solnctimos cfforts made with equally good intentions mot with pre- cisely opposite comment. They had reason to look forward with coufldetlt expcctntioii of thc development of the whole educational systoni in the 'pro- vinco_ I-‘rom the primary class in the Alitl to thc advanced schools of agri- culture. all were on thc same road of education endeavouring to roach a higher degree of efficiency, so that they might be able to produce better and nlore lasting effects for the work they might do. The blacksmith who had learned ills trade would do with one blow what the unskilled person might take many blows in attempting to do not so well. Tile same principle applied to agriculture. Education was the foundation of all efficiency. “ We are now engaged _in a terrible war with a nation that can teach us that one lesson, that by education. by orgnllisation, they have been able. within the measure of dur memory, to advance from ll people who were backward ill agriculture and in manu- factures to one of foremost rank in the world. lt has been done by oillcieiioy achieved by education and organisation. Unfortunately, their success t-ngendcred that spirit of pride that goes iioforo destruction. That wc must avoid. but we can learn from them thc ndvalitages that arise from thorough education worked out tliroligli every department of life. We are dealing largely with the material sitio oi' progress, but in all our educa- tional system we must never forget flint even though we may attaili the |liighost efficiency we may leave out lwiiat the Germans left out and Gnd ourselves in the position they stand in to-day. We see in this war A horrible loss of life; it is appalling. There are compehsations; but those conipensaiions only reach the people as n whole. There are mothers whose sons will liever return. and it is hard for them to feel the compensation. it strikes a blow that will last until their last breath. lint we are all more or less blind to the continuous loss of life arising from prevcntibio disease.
That loss is greater than loss in battles, not only in the destruction of lives that might prove useful but in the actual financial loss that is often a heavy burden on the families that are left behind. One step inthe direction of prevention has been taken by the establishment of a hospital for the treatment of incipient cases of tuberculosis through the magnificent generosity of the Hon. Charles Dalton. (Cheers) it will be opened in tho- Isummer. One avenue of 'communica- tion of disease that can be closed up is the public school. _ We have I. '_larger staff of inspectors flow: eeoil
