Government has appealed :to the `country, for support on the'following issue:— "We purpose.-te-enacting.the charters and General Railway Act.' Will you Au- thorize us to 'do so: We, contend -that Manitoba possesses'and should enjoy the right to issuecharters for,tne construction of local lines within her, borders: Will you authorize us to put that contention befor.e the Federal authorities: in'. your. name?"

While reading over the dailies, we have lately noticed paragraphs referriu_ g to it regularities of ,school children in some of the towns of our province, and,-: believing it our duty to appose and trample under foot all such• irregularities, we would raise a warning voice against them to our midst; That we have some cannot .be denied, for wa115' the streeta'any day of the week and: one will Bud a number of children who should,, be at school, parading listlessly. around,or engaged in sums childlike game, we haveno means of knowing what per- cents er- o t f thoseh names appear on the rolls, atteud-reg it rly, but that. many persist in truancy, and more, .remain at home through sheer carelessness, is patent to all. The remedy for this is the hearty, co=operation of parent and teacher which we believe would reduce the absentees to a minimum ; this failing, a-truaney officer might be effectual. Asp to irregularities of a more serious` kind; we .cannot speak with so muchecer- tainty; however,'we muni not shut our eyes , to` the. fact that many ie our midst assert that there is a looseness among many youths which may, eventually, cause trouble. The teacher's, presence, during ',,recess,V in the yard, the parents requiring a speedy homeward journey,and above all their being, under- the parental roof after dark, would "assuredly tend to overconie much' of the bad langnage,'and worse conduct, which --e a say it advisedly —is growing in our midst. Let not pa- en age a ,. whose .rents' 'and teachers look lightly on this mstter, for;itis fraught with,deepinterest to themselves, to the children', and 'so- ciety at large.
