LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
Kings Cotttnty Election, i887.
Srr,—The Patriot iv a late issue tries to make political capital against Hon. W. W. Sullivan on account of his statement respect- ing the feeling in King’s County, made at the Subway meeting in Charlottetown a few days before the election.
I think it can be clearly shown that Mr. Sullivan's statement, judging from the meet- ings he had attended, was quite correct. At that time Mr. Sullivan had attended meetings at Georgetown, Morell and St. Peter's, and the votes polled in those localities show a great gain for the Conservative candidates over what they did in 1882.
The following are the votes polled in 1382 and 1887 in the several Electoral Distriets of King’s County :
First District.
1882. 1887. Macdonald 066.000 ta08s eee eek 402 519 SS ee oe Ea Ne ee 457 578 ese 5g SR PIE OPS 790 767 Mc, oe. ae . 663 687 Second District.

Maodogala ., ........+sesenses 560 600 ee Ss CEST. a AS . 500 549 eh OEE OL a 332 515 Peers, Ese A 397 613
From these figures we learn that in the First District, McIntyre’s majority over Mut- tart has been reduced from 333 to 189, and Robertson’s majority over Macdonald from 961 to 168. In the Second District, where Mr. Sullivan has great influence, still better work wasdone. In it MclIntyre’s majority over Muttart was reduced from 239, as it was in 1882, to 38, and Robertson’s majority over Macdonald from 200 to 36. In the Third Dictrict, Macdonald’s majority in 1882 of 165 over Robertson was reduced to 135, but Mut- tart’s majority over McIntyre was increased from 79 to 94. Georgetown gave slightly increased majorities to both Macdonald and Muttart, and before we come tothe Fourth District we find that Muttart has gained 377 and Macdonald 239 over what they had in 1882.
In Murray Harbor North and South, High Bank and Sturgeon, the Conservative party held their own very well; but Montague, Whim Road and Mahar’s show a great loss. In fact the Conservative candidates lost their election on account of the loss in these three
polls. Here are the figures :— Montague. 1882. 1887. Mentotiela >. 725 2d. AA 79 49 Miaitert: 8K eR 62 42 Moksityre.. oo. 5 i ek oc Wes 69 102 meee. 2? Aili.

doubt, afford great pleasure to our friends in St. Peter’s and East Point Districts, explains why the expectation of Mr. Sullivan and the Conservative party was not realized at the late election in King’s County. They may also open the eyes of the Patriot to the fact that the Grits owe this County to Dr. Robert- son's personal popularity, and not to any faith the people have in the hydra-headed policy of the Opposition. I am, yours respectfully, OBSERVER. Cardigan, King’s County, March 7, 1887.
Hiope River Matters.
Srkx,—Now that the elections are over, it might not be amiss to have a talk over local matters. Of course, people around here are all glad to hear that pork is going up, though there are some Tories so wicked they won't give the credit to Davies & Welsh. Trotting horses are doing splendidly this winter, the ice being constantly coyered with snow ; they are not driven. Consequently we see owners of fancy horses can enj>2y a drive to a neighboring entertainment--which is better for horse and owner. This puts one in mind of a subject that’s being agitated here ; it is whether Hope River should have a hall or not? All agree that such a building is needed; old time amusements are good, and though they did well in their time, those that they have pleased are displeased if they see a son or daughter for whom they have worked to edu cate to a better taste, fall back to tasting the old pleasures. Then when we look around and see the many talented men who have left and are leaving every Syear, and think that we never have a lecture from or a debate with them after, why, it is no wonder they forget where they were born. This will not be so any longer. The well-to-do farmers of Ho River and vicinity are going to build a hall where they can have lectur:s, entertainments, debating and farmers clubs and political meetings, aud thus give the boys re to talk about besides the usual cross-roa blackguard conversation. Yours, ete., A Workinxe Bez. Hope River, March 1.

Presentation and Address.
-——
To Archibald Shaw, Esq:
Drak Sir, —We, the undersigned neighbors and friends, hearing that you are about to leave this Island, herewith beg to convey to you our sorrow, fully appreciating the many acts of kindness performed by yor. during your long residence in Crapaud, many of us having had intimate business relations with you which we always found satisfactory. We take this opportunity of expressing the high esteem in which we hold you, believing that in whatever country it may be your Tot to make your home, you will, as heretofore, give a good account of yourself, while we will always be »:membering you as one of us.
To Mrs. wwe also beg to convey our esteem. ng among us as a comparative stranger, she ‘eaves behind a host of friends who all vie, one with the other, in wishing you and you esteemed partner many long years of usefulness and happiness.
Hoping that your many friends on the Island may be remembered with kindness, we remain as ever your well wishers,
H. W. Robertson, M. D., O. B. Wadman, J. P., George Lowther, Cornelius Lowther, Mark Inman, James A. Howatt, George Stordy, Aron Collett, Robert McViette, Donald McLean, Edward Rogerson, Thomas Rogerson, James Arbiug, Solomon J. Bb. Laard, Percy H. Palmer, Robert P.

McLeod, Peter Newsom, David Marchbant., David Mc- Quarrie, Robert J. Myers, Adan Rogerson, Isaac Smith, and several others.
To George Lowther, Isaac Smith, P. H. Palmer, Solomon J. B. Lecrd, Wesley Myers, Peter Newsom, O. i. Wadman, Anthony Collett, and others.
GENTLEMEN,—I assure yeu that when I heard of the intention to carry cut the pro- gramme of to-night, I began more fully to regret having to leave such a kind and _large- hearted a body of friends as I now realize I have in this community, «and this mark of your kindness and esteem gives me more pleasure than I can express. I believe I have the honor to be the first business man who has ever left Crapand with the well wishes of the representative business men and farmers of this community thus publicly ex pressed.
In looking back over my business relations w ith you all, 1 feel proud to think that very little, if any, differences have ever arisen between us, and Iam happy to believe that I leave Crapaud this week with the well wishes of every persen in the place, aud | assure you that kindly feeling is fully reciprocated on my part.
I hope, however, that my connection with the people of Crapaud and vicinity will not end with my leaving on this occasion, as I shall always induce whatever firm I may be connected with to buy, as largely as possible, from this port.
For some time to come I will be connected with a prominent commission and jobbing house in Moncton, N. B., who buy largely of your products,and at some not very distant time I may again have the pleasure of pur- chasing from many of you who have hereto- fore promptly assisted me with your large quantities of produce in carrying out my con- tracts in supplying.
In conclusion, gentlemen, | may say that the knowledge and assurance that I carry with me your well wishes I value more than money.
Your kind reference to Mrs. Shaw I appreciate, and will be conveyed to her, and I think I may say that she regrets leaving almost as much as I do, Hoping that you and yours may, prosper, socially as well as financially.
I remain, Yours truly, ARCHIBALD Suaw.
On the evening of the presentation of the above address,Mr. Shaw’s may friends met at the Eureka House, Victoria, where a grand lunch was prepared in Mrs. John- stone's best style. The spread was magniii- cent and thoroughly enjoyed, after which toasts anc speeches by Messrs. G. Lowther, VU. B. Wadman, J. J. MeLeod, P. H. Palmer, Solomon J. B. Leard, Anthony Collett, Esquires, imine host and others, the party, ‘after vowing to meet again, separated, well pleased with their evening's enjoyment.
Astonishing Success.
It is the duty of every person who has used Boschee’s German Syrup to let its wonderfal qualities be known io their friends in_ curing Consumption, severe Coughs, Croup, Asthma, Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and lung diseases. No person can use it without im- mediate relief. Three doses will relieve any case, and we consider it the duty of all drug- gists to recommend it to the poor, dying con- sumptive, at least to try one bottle, as 80,000 dozen bottles were sold last year, and no one case where it failed was reported. Such a medicine as the German Syrup cannot be too widely known. Ask your druggist about it. Samples bottles to try, sold at 10 cents.
