THE DAILY EXAMINER.

OCTOBER 14, 1897

THE FALL TRAIN ARRANGEMENTS,

Tue West protests vigorously thongh its |

local organ L’Impartial against what

it is pleased to designate the “notoriously

t” schednile recentiv adopted by our raliway authorities. Our Sprightiy con temporary clearly announces its griev ances.

t No facilities for doing business

here daily aod returning west.

(2) No meana of getting to and from the boat and enjoying the advantage of leaving the Isiaod aod returning daily as well as receiv ng the mails as promptly as possi ble.

(3) The enforced use of an express train which is of no advantage to the west, but simply sent through asa matter o: f orm aiter serving eastern purposes.

(4) [he lossof the eastern connection at Royalty Junction.

These are a few of the west’s objections: They seem to be The makers of tbe time table evidently did not give much consideration to this large section of the province. And L’Impartial rightly reproaches its repre- sentative at Ottawa for allowing westere interests to be thus betrayed and sacrificed, L’Im partial very juatly remarks that if it were necessary at all at present to change the splenjid sum- mer arrangemevt which gave the Province east aud west twenty-four hour conne:tioa

-with Montreal aod Boston and mails fresh upon our breakfast table, why not main- tain the principle the late schedule invoked and ran the express train to and from the boat for the convenience of pas- sengers and promp* conveyance of mails ? And why was the freight train not so ar- range! as to run torough t» this city daily from Tignish ? We frankly confeas that we Can see no reason why not. Perhaps the railway sathorities can. If they have good reasons they should make them known,

L’Impartial gives a trying case in con- nection with this arrangement. A Tiguish man had fifteen minutes work with the bauks in Charlottetown on Monday last, which required personal attention. He was obliged to leave Tiguish by the express at two o’clock on Saturday, spend Sunday and Ménday in this city and return by Tuesday’s express, reaching Tignish at one o'clock that day,—seventy-one hours abeence to do fifteen minutes business !

We uonhesitatiogly affirm that this treatment of the weat is unjust aad unfair, and raise our yoice willingly with our contemporary in behalf of fairp!ay and progress, A hundred years back such a time card drags us,and that without rhyme orreason. And this is grii pro-~ gress!

well ta-eo,

JOBBING IN BRIDGES.

‘Tue roads and bridges which ought to be in perfect order now for marketing the crops are under Liberal incompetency in many cases disgraceful. Contracts let to Tories as the lowest bidders early enough to have the work done this season have been unjustly cancelled and others made at the last moment to suit the jobbers in office. Thegreat new bridge over the Kildare, known as the “Father Burke Br.dge,” is now ali torn upto the infinite hardship of the people who use it. Thig bridge which was sold to Richard Keefe, a most Competent man and a good Tory, in July, bas lately fallen into other hands, and there will be more ihan prayers said for Commissioner McLean by many a poor shipwrecked wayfarer this fall as be passes over it.

decorated with flowers aud maple leaves, and between the gates of the building the pupils were drawn up in two lines, and as

the visitors passed through they saog “The Maple Leaf Forever.” Several departments of the school were vi-ited, and in each His Excellency spoke briefly to the pupztls. The teachers aud a number of the pupils were formally presented to their Excellen- cies and afier singing “God Save the Queen” the distinguished visitors proceed- ed to the Convent where they were most heartily welcomed and a well-worded address was read by Miss Sara Strong, to which His Excellency made a suitable reply.

Their Excellencies then repaired to the Towa Halli, which was packed tothe doors. Ricvard Hunt, E-q, Chairman of the Towa Council, presided, and presented the address from that Board. His Excellency replied at considerable length. An address from the W. C. T. U. was also presented to :he Countess of Aberdeen, to which Her Excellency fittingly replied. Then came the reception, anda large number of people were presented. The hall was beautifully decorate! for the occasion.

The dist:nguished visitors were then entertained at luncheon at the Clifton House.

NOTES AND COMMETS.

—_—— ——

—An Ottawa despatch says the post office department is engaged at present in

taking acensus of newspapers mailed at different offices uader the statutory pri- vilege of free transmission to subscribers. It foreshadows a reim position of newspaper postage.

—According to an exchange the row over the lieutenant governorship of Que- bec is growing worse. The Langelier crowd have succeeded in making it a Tarte aod anti-Tarte battle, and in this way they have secured support from quarters that would otherwise have been neutral. Tarte ou the other hand is making a hard fight, as he is afraid that if he is beaten by the Langeliers in this matterf they will be encouraged to resume their demand for his removal from the government. In the meantime Sir Wilfrid cannot get a quorum of his colleagues together to even talk the matter over. Those of them that are not slready away are trying to get away.
