Telegraph Service Severed Between Prince Edward Island and Mainland
The Telegraph between Prince Edward Island and the outside world went dead on January 5. The editor of The Guardian urged the issue to Sir Wilfrid Laurier, noting government awareness and repeated appeals in Parliament. The wireless land station at Pictou remains unused, leaving merchants and citizens without message service while Ottawa must uphold interprovincial telegraph links.
