Crops and Prospects

A vew weeks ago our farmers were grumbling about the want of rain. Now they are praying Sor dry weather. In four

and half days, beginning on Thursday, the 11th inst., six inches of rain fell,—a sixth of the average rainfall of a whole year! On Wednesday night there was another heavy shower, and the weather continues to be unsettled. The result is that, throughout the length and breadth of the Province, thousands of tons of hay have been either completely ruined or very much damaged, that the crops on low-lying lands have had too much of a good thing, and that our farmers are not in such high spirits as they were a week ago. Hay apart, not much damage has yet been done to the crops. Harvest has begun. The yield of early wheat and oats is, apparently, heavy, and if the weather become settled and fine,

a

there will yet be abundant crops. Our farmers have received still another Jesson that it is wise to “* make hay while the sun shines.” We had a long spell of fine weather during which, in all but exceptional cases, all the hay might, and could, and ought to have been cut. But for the sake of an inch or two in the growth, or for some other reason, farmers permitted the tine weather to pase by—with the result that many of them have lost heavily. Hay- making is usually too late in this Province ; and when too late, the gsin in quantity is more than counterbalanced by the loss in quality.

The Liberal Programme.

Now that Mr. Gladstone is again at the ‘ead of affairs, let us recall the leading principles of his policy as outlined in his Newcastle programme. These were:—1, 2, payment of election charges from the rates. At present nov one can be nominated for a seat in the Commons unless he pays down £125 to £200 to the returning officer to meet the official ex- penses of the poll. 3, Payment of members of Parliament. 4, Peace and conciliation with Ireland. 5, Taxation of ground valtes. 6, Small holdings by compulscry purchase. 7, Repeal of the laws of primog»niture. 8, Popular control of the liquor izaffic. 9, Equal death duties upon land-owners and other people. 10, Taxation of mining roy- alties. 11, Reform of the House of Lords. It will be interesting to note the progress made by the Liberal party in the carrying

out of these reforms. _——_——_ —__ + 6+ & —__ —_—_-_-—- Notes and Comments.

one man, one vote.

—The Montreal Gazette: —‘*A good deal of the speech from the throne at the opening of the Newfoundland legislature was devoted to expressions of thanks to those who had helped St. John’s in ite distress. Canada was second in the list of places especially praised. At the opening of the preceding session it was first among the places especially condemned. There is nothing like a family affliction for reconciling a family quarrel.

—Winnipeg despatch says :—‘‘Premier Greenway has issued the Manitoba crop bulletin which says $that a good crop is now assured. The total yield is estimated: wheat, 20,000,000 bush.; oats, 15,000,000; barley, 4.000,000. Wheat will run in most sections 25 bushels to the acre, the greater part of it of high grades; oats 45 to the acre and barley 35. The potato crop will be the largest and best ever known.”

The Races.

The races yesterday afternoon were all, well contested, and greatly enjoyed. It is} to be regretted that they were not more largely attended. Following is a synopsis of the proceedings after Tne EXAMINER went to press yesterday afternoon ;—

FREE FOR ALL.

In this race the starters were Sir Charles_ by Peter Blair, Peter Carroll, Pictou; Lucy | Derrick, by All Right, N. Lee, Truro; | Harry G., by Black Pilot, P. P. Gillis, | Ch’town; Benuy, by Fearnaught. jr., W.| F. Robins, Ch'town; Loafer, by French | Sporter, Messrs. Dawson, North Tryon. |

First Heat—The horses were sent off on | the fourth score. Harry G. had a slight} lead at the start, with Loafer second, Sir Charles third, Benay fourth and Lucy Der- rick fifth. Harry G, kept ahead until the three-quarter pole was reached, when he was passed by Loafer, who held first posi- tion for a short time only having to give place to Benny who had been getting along in excellent form and who had just given Sir Charles and Harry G. the ‘go by.” Benny kept his lead to the finish coming under the wire the winner, with Harry G. second, Sir Charles third, Loafer fourth, and Lucy Derrick fifth. Time 2 34.

Second Heat—A start was effected on

the sixth score. Soon after getting the word “go,” Benny and Harry G. broke and Sir Charles took the lead, which he main- tained to the three-quarter pole. Here he was passed by Benny, who had regained his feet and was doing splendid work. Loaf- er and Lucy Derrick had also been doing good work, and there was not much day- light between them at the three-quarters. Harry G had fallen back to fifth position. Benny kept ahead to the finish winning the heat in 2.34 Sir Charles took second place, with Loafer third, Lucy Derrick fourth and Harry G. fifth. Third heat—This was one of the best con- tested heats in the race. The send-off, how- ever, was a poor one for Lucy Derrick. Benny took the lead at the first turn and kept it to the finish, Sie Charles and Loafer pressed him very hard between the half and three- quarters. Lucy Derrick, whoJ had been behaving nobly throughout this heat, came up neck and neck with Benny on _ the last quarter and worked hard for first ‘yes but tailed to secure it. At the finish the order was as follows: Benny first, Lucy Der- rick second, Sir Charles third, Loafer fourth, Harry G fifth. Time 2.34.

THREE-MINUTE CLASS.

Second Heat.—The horses were sent off on the fourth score. Just as they came up under the wire the bell rung, and «almost directly afterwards the word ‘‘go” was given. This gave rise to a misunderstand- ing amongst the drivers, and only two of the horses—Sam Slick and Yellow Bird— went the full mile, the others dropping out. Sam Slick came in ahead of Yellow Bird at the finish, and Carroll claimed the heat. The other drivers claimed that as the bell had been rung it was ‘‘no heat.” The judges took time to consider, and decided that it was a beat, and awarded it to Sam Slick, giving Yellow Bird second place, Sim third, Ilderim fourth, Birdie Patchen fifth, and Parnell sixth. Time, 2.43.

[A protest was entered against the deci- sion of the judges by the owner of Sim, but it was subsequently withdrawn }

Third Heat—A start was mide on the sixth score. Sam Slick led at the turn with Iderim second, Parnell third, Birdie Patchen fourth, Yellow Bird fifth and Sim sixth. This order was maintained to the three-quarter pole, excepting that Birdie Patchen had been passed by Sim. Sam Slick kept his lead to the finish coming in the winner in 2.42}. Ilderim came in second, but was put back to third place for running. Parnell, who came in third, was given second piace, with Yellow Bird fourth, Birdie Patchen fifth and Sim sixth. Fourth Heat—Sam Slick had a slight advantage at the start which was effected on the fifth score, but went off his feet at the first turn, as alsodid Sim. Both, how- ever, soon settled down to work again. At the half Sam Slick had a good lead which he kept tothe finish, capturing the heat and race in 2.43. Parnell came in second, Yeliow Bird third, Sim fourth and Ilderim fifth. Birdie Patchen did not start in this heat.

The Circus.

Sir,—lIc is a pity that manages and at- tendants at circus performances ire so un- couth and repulsive. The show et present exhibiting here has, in addition to this ob- jectionable feature, the faculty for not doing what they profess by their aandbills. Outside of a few acrobatic feats, the time is wasted. Much indignation vas felt by the audience last night in the exacting of twenty-five cents extra fur cushioned seats (which were only rough boards with old pieces of carpet thrown over them). When a ‘“‘circus” advertises ‘‘everytling” for twenty-five cents, and then adds idditional charges for various attractions included in the first announcement, we mus, in com- mon honesty, pronounce the affair a ‘*fake.”

ONE OF THE VICTIMS, Aug. 18, 1892.

S1r,—It is to be hoped that you will give a true report of the so-called eire1s, which humbugged the people last night. Look at the bills and posters, and then think of last night’s farce, fraud and deception. They advertiss elephants, performitg dogs, horses, bare back riders and lots of other things performing in the ring, and ‘25 cents admits to all.” There is nc ring, no performing horses, no dogs, no bare back riding ; and if you want to see the elephant you have to pay an extra 10 cents. The acrobats, contortionists and western ponies did their part well, but beyond that there is nothing. It is about time that such hum- bugs were taught that the people of Prince Edward Island were not to be gal ed. One Wao Was ‘THERE.
