Napanee Mr Brines forged During last session of Parliament an Act was passed postal rates on letters forth that tho within tho Dominion of Canada shall bo two cents per instead of three the reduction however only to into force when proclaimed by tho GovornorinCouncil Looking forward to the postal conference soon to be hold in London and to which Hon Mr PostmasterGener al of Canada has appointed an accredited representative from this Dominion tho statute above alluded to was passed so as to enable this coun try to tako advantage of any proposi tion the conference might entertain in mail facilities adoption of that legislation too demonstrated that the present Government was one of reform one of advancement and ready to act in harmony with the pro gressive spirit of age It further demonstrates that we have a Reform with something to reform and ready to assist the activities of trade and intercommunication by af fording facilities which their predeces sors had not the courage or foresight to offer The Opposition organ at Toronto however cannot refrain from grumbling It appears the legislation was all this no fault is found but it does grumble because the Gov ernment has not authorized the im mediate issue of a proclamation to put Act in forceand this too when its own correspondent at the Capitol had stated while parliament was in session that the passage of the bill was a means to an end something to be attained in the future Notwith standing this fact the Mail now de clares The twocent rate be given without delay or the public must know the reason why The public does know the reason why so does our cotoraporary but it wants to show it is agin the govern ment any way and therefore con veniently ignores the understood pur pose of parliament in passing the sta tute referred to in order to have a backhanded thrust at the Administra tion For nearly a score of years Opposition whom the Mail supports had it in their power to make a change in postal rates as now proposed but our did not then complain about the rate paid or demand a re duction now however that its opponents are in power the of an immediate reduction as sumes large importance to the people

Government for the sake of what that will bring is not in the best interests the country and we hope Sir Wilfrid and bis colleagues will stop it The practice is hurtful to public morals and should be
