In the Legislature yesterday sec- ,
ond reading was given to an Act to '
involporate the Provincial Sanator-
lnln, the provisions of whicil, as slun-
lnariafd in the Resolution illtrodnc-
ing the bill, have already appeared
in The Guardian.
In committee Hon. Mr. Stewart
asked if the Act was lllodrllecl on
any other act. Was there any pre-
ceciellt?
Premier Saunders: I am not in a
position to say.
Hon. Mr. Stewart: It was not pre-
pared by yourself?
l‘relnle'r Saunders: It was prepared
by Mr. J'f:.'»1ce Hazard. i
Mr. Stewart: We have a precedent `
of course. in this Province. What is
ille Act. incorporating that Dalton
Sanatoriuln: It ia .vclysilnilar to
this; but I remember in that case
the trustees were named in the
statute. I was wondering vslty that
course is not followed, inasmuch its
this Act is evidently modelled after
it.
Premier Saunders: I couldnt say.
Mr. Stewart asked if the present
ciiagnosticlan would be appointed
superintendent.
Pnmier Saunders: I take tt that
that is the idea.
Mr. Stewart: Will it require all
his time?
Premier Saunders: I don'l: imagine
that it will require all his time.
Mr. Stewart: Because, as it was
pointed out by my colleague from,
Sourls recently in this House, there
will still be a great deal of work to
b” done in connection with tubercu-
losis throughout the Province. This
Banatorlum will only take care of
rot more than a dozen patients, I
wesume.
Premier Saunders: I think it will
hka care of more than that.
Mr. Stewart.: Well. suppose there
tiff-ra are _twenty or thirty, they will
nrly be a. very small proportion, and
this work will still require to be ear-
rlell on. As a matter of fact a San-
atorium will not lessen the outside
r.'ori¢` appreciably, so that the ding-
nostlcian will still rcqllire to give
tho same attention io the outside
work, `

ilinsiirlgs in the impurllnce attached
to it.
As soon as open session was an-
|nollnePcl, and after a few prelimin-
laries, the Hon. Hugh Guthrie rose to
lnove an amendment to the resolu-
liion to go into committee of supply
'on post ofllee estimates to the ef-
fect that in the opinion of the
House the present system of award-
ing contracts for the delivery of rural
mall by tender had proved unfair,
and that such rural mail carriers
should be appointed by the civil
service-. commission as a permanent
basis of employment,
In spczllziiigt to his resolution Mr.
(`-utllrie roie;'l'ed to the sysien1 of
irurai mail delivery as a “public scon-
dal." Rural mail rlellv¢‘l'y had been
establisiled about 20 years ago with-
out any experience as to the propel'
imethod of managing it. The system
|of letting contracts by tender was
ian experiment and then considered
ia. proper one, but experience had
lproved it to have been a. failure, as
it had also had been proved in the
,United States. There \-:ere in Can-
lada some 4007 rural mail routes, and
‘the system was gradually growing
worse from year to year. He could
‘not give exact figures, as details for
all routes were difficult io arrive at-
Th.. at-,erurze route was twenty miles
ilontz, and the averofzc pay was $300
per annllln. To mrlintnin this ser-
vice daily it meant that carriers had
to work every day, in all kinds of
weatlirr, winter and slunlner. with
one or two days holidays in a year.
It was necessary to have one or two
horses. usually two, and the keep of
the horse was not less in feed and
other expenses than S220 Of $44"»
which meant $360 with lvllich to
lkccp the carrier and iamii.V~ Ti “'55

was made.
Premier Saunders repeated the rea-
sons which he had previously liven
i in his introduction to nu. bill. lvn-.
Grant told him. that M far ld the
i Company was concerned, it was moro-
ly a matter of transferring the ll-
sels from one Company to the other,

The head ofilce was to be transferred
to Charlottetown.
lion. J. D. stewart said that the
answer dldn'l, touch his question. Tho
Telephone Company of Prince Ed-
ward Island was incorporated in the
‘llincties, and so far as the people
knew they still had the monopoly of
the business in their handa. We know
nothing of the Eastern Tolophonl
and Telegraph Company, which, one
hears, holds a Dominion ChlrtAr,an¢i
controls the Prince Edward Illond
Telephone Company, Why, than,
create a, new incorporation; why not
transfer the assets back to tha older

tention.
Hon. J. D. Stewart: "All my hon.
friend has to do ia to loolr at tha roo-

ill BEDEUUE
A most pathetic tragedy occurred
at Bedeque yesterday aftemoon, the
victim being little Miss Sarah Helen-
Sharp. the four year old daughte
of Dr. and Mrs. A, D. Sharp. At about
1.30 ahe was playing with a. little boy
friend aged six in a. shed in the yard
where there were two alelghs housed
aide by side. One of these was some-
what hlgher than the other and the
littlo playmates were jumping in and
out of them and having a joyous time,
when ,the little girl evidently slipped
and fell between them. In doing so
her chin caught on the edge of the
alaigh and she was suspended and
choked to death.
lib. and Mrs. Bhsrp were having
their dinner at the time. Mrs. Sharp
happened to Ioolr out of the window
saw the little one's face looking very
pale and went to see what was the
matter only to find the poor child
suspended by the neck and life ex-
tinct. Dr. Bharp who was immediately
on the spot and also Dr. E. E. Sin-
