The great principle invtived is simply the right of the Roman Catho lies of Manitoba to spend their own money, in the education of their own children, in accordance with the dietates of their own consciences ---a right they bargained for and were solemnly guar- anteed before Manitoba entered the un• ion. They don't ask for a cent of Pre testant money, but merely for their own money. Why not let them have what belongs to them? Why should. we hump our backs, like cats in the press epee of a strange dog, at a bill which provides that the school taxes which are taken from Catholics shall be re- turned co them for the support of their kk Own schools ? NATURAL BO.1?V' CO\SERIA-1 TITES As a rule, the Orangemen of Canada are as naturally Conservative in their politics as a Scotchman is in his diet of porridge, or au Englishman, in his lik- ing for roast beef. They cannot change their politics without wrenching asun- der the tie that bind them to what they consider their loyalty to their Queen. The principles of the Orange Associa tion form the foundation of their relig ion, and it is a good foundation be- cause based on the Scriptures, and by long association with their politics, have been in most cases incorporated in the whole, and have become part of their creed. The almost pathetic reverence shown to established customs, marks in a strik- ing way the conservatism of the mem- bers of this body. When it is the due of a member to be elevated to a more honorable post, this counts as the sus preme qualification; the slightest ir- regularity of procedure is regarded as a momentous affair, and in other ways in the management of their business, the inbred conservatism is displayed. This being the case,it is not hard to believe that there will be a tremendous struggle in the minds of these men be- fore they can come to the point of vot ing against their party friends. In thousands of cases it is simply impossi- ble for them to do it, some might re frain from voting, while a third and smaller number is ready to vote straight against their party when it offends Those who fancy, however, that the Orangemen can be permanently separ ated from the Conservative party, and permanently attached to the Liberals, leave out of their calculation, the inher- ent conservatism of the individual. Orangemen take to that party as nat- ually as squirrels take to nuts.—To- ronto News. CRYING OUT FOR PROTECTION perieneed namely, the encouragement of vast importations through the al)• sauce of protection. The English farmers in their memor- ial presented the members of the Gov- ernment with a schedule of grievances,. and the remedies proposed. It is un- necessary to repeat them all, for the last proposition makes the important statement: "In the opinion of this meet- ing of East Anglian agricultural dela gates, no sufficient remedies for exist- ing agricultural ruin can be found short of a rearrangement of England's fiscal policy recognizing the importance of special agreements between the Mother Country and her colonies." Here is ar definite suggestion. It is often said that if the British agriculturists con templates a measure of fiscal relief, he desires more especially that he shall be protested against colonial produce, such as that of Canada. The East Anglian farmers indicate clearly that this view ,s fallacious. �1 hile they wish to be protected from outside produce, they are anxious that the oversea portions of the Empire shall be admitted to re- cipr aryl terms with themselves. Nor is this position to be wondered at. It is now seen that all parts of the Empire must, for Imperial and commercial con sideratiens, be brought closer together. Our true policy, in view of the grow- ing feeling in England favorable to better commercial conditions, is not Free Trade, nor yet Unrestricted Re- ciprocity, We must be prepared to protect ourselves moderately, and to co operate when the time comes in the Imperial commercial understanding, such as Sir Charles Tupper referred to at the recent meeting of the Montreal Board of Trade, and which is one of the planks in the Liberal•Conservative platform and on which this country will be asked to give its support at the approaching elections, The agitation for protection by the farming population in Great Britain is becoming formidable. Meetings are be_ ing held in many districts and resolu- tions carried unanimously, demanding from the Government a certain amount of protection to their products. Depu tations have also been sent to the Gov ernment, asking for protection against outside competition. It is significant that while the English agriculturalists are demanding protection to their pro- ducts, and the United States farmers are seeking more protection than the present Democratic policy is giving them, the Grit party in Canada are clamoring for Free Trade in agricul tural products as well as in manufac- tures. To revert to Great Britain' there is scarcely an industry in that country which is not more or less affec- ted by the influex of foreign goods. One of the great 'manufacturers says that if ho had his home market, the wages he pays would be raised from fifteen to twenty-five per cent. Be- sides agricultural deputations which called upon the -Government, there was an immense deputation from the man- ufacturers a few days ago. While a. certain measure of protection is likely to be granted the British agriculturist, there is little hopethat the manufac- • "ofgland Enwill succeed during b the life of the present Government The British farmers' trouble is precisely: Grits in Canada say which the would not hurt us, if it were once ea Egmondville: On Tuesday morning 2nd inst., Miss Mary Kyle was united in marriage to Mr. Will }lagan, jewel- ler, of Toronto. Wingham: Thos. 'Woodcock, of the Holstein Dairy, met with a painful ac- cident one day last week, when a cow kicked him, breaking a small bone in the back of his hand. St. Marys: Blacksmith Jas. Marshall was seized with a fit the other day and fell with an arm across a red-hot iron. Deep ridges were burned in the flesh before he was discovered. Mitchell: Mr. John Gillespie boot and shoe merchant, was married last week at Stratford, to Miss Maggie Mc- Cormick, at the residenee of the latter's sister, Mrs. A. C. Jones. Mr. John Sum- merville was also married to Miss Sadie Johnston on Wednesday. EgmoudviIle: Mr. Wm. Cumming was so unfortunate as to put his knee out of joint on Tuesday evening, while playing football at Mr. Samuel Carno- chan's. The boys present, however, soon put it in place again, but did not bandage and a slight twist displaced it a second time. Parkhill: A serious accident occurr- ed on Saturday, which might have re suited fatally. Mrs. Abraham Gray, of Parkhill, Mrs. Hunisucker and Mrs. Hartle, of Windsor, and Miss McNeil, of Windsor, started in a double carriage for Strathroy, hut they had not gone far when the team took fright, ran away and overturned the carriage, precipitating the occupants to the ground. Mrs. Gray sustained a frac- ture of the arm, and Mrs. Hunisucker was injured internally, besides being bruised and cut. The whole party were more or less injured and the carriage was badly smashed, the top being entirely demolished. Mrs. Hun- sucker and Mrs. Hartle each had a child with them which miraculously escaped any serious injury. brood Health And a good appetite go hand in hand. With the loss of appetite, the system cannot long sustain itself. Thus the fortifications of good health are broken down and the system is liable to attacks of disease. It is in such cases that the medicinal powers of Hood's Sarsaparilla are clearly shown. Thousands who have taken Hood's Sarsaparilla testify to its great merits as a purifier of the blood its powers to restore and sharpen the appetite and promote a healthy action of the digestive organs. Thus it is, not what we say but what Hood's Sar- saparilla does that tells the story and constitutes the strongest recommenda- tion that can be urged for any medicine. Why not take Hood's Sarsaparilla now ? Bright and Economical Women rase 8 THE TRUTH ABOUT THE BILL LAURIER AND HIS FOLLOWERS CLAMOR FOR A SWEEPING MEASURE --THEY WANT DARK AGE SCHOOLS. And Yet Their Ontario Followers Deny the Truth—Who Leads the Grits, The Fol- lowers or the leader ? • The Grit newspapers throughout the laud have simulatea delight at the news that Sir Oliver Mowat, Ontario's Premier, will aid their leader in the campaign. They neglect to point out that Sir Oliver has given Mr. Laurier very faint-hearted . aid. At first, with a great flourish of trumpets, the Liberal press announced that Sir Oliver would resign his seat in the Ontario Legislature and would run in sonic Ontario constituency. But the Premier was too far seeing to take any chances. He declined to give up. his seven thousand dollar post in the Ontario Gov- ernment, and announced that in the event of Mr, Lander's attaining power he would enter the Senate, With this Mr. Laurier was fain to be content. He tried his best to conceal his disappointment, but in his speech at Quebec it was evident that ho had ex- pected to have something better than a mere promise from Sir Oliver, He had anticipated the active aid of the Premier of Ontario. The French Liberal press ex- presses joy at Sir Oliver's incoming. The Electeur (Lib.) said on May 5:— "The despatches from all parts of the country indicate that the determination of Sir Oliver Mowat to join Mr. Laurier in the Federal arena is received by the Liberals with joy unbounded, "It is now, they say, not merely a hope, but an absolute certainty, that we shall have a signal triumph. "There is no doubt that Sir Oliver is the only man capable of Squelching. the. Orange Lodges, and the P.P.A. in Ontario. "What will the Tories say now? Thus we are shown that Sir Oliver's mission is to prepare and make ready the way for the remedial bill that Mr. Lau- rier wants introduced, and that lie has promised. In Quebec, May 7, he said: "I believe that the minority in Manitoba should have all their rights, and not only part of them. The leader of the Liberals meant that the demands of his organ, The Electcnr, should be gratified. That journal objected to the Remedial bill because it required the separate schools of Manitoba to be inspected, the teachers to be qualified by passing a Government examination, and the text books to be authorized. Mr. Laurier said in the House of Commons: "God help my poor fellow -countrymen if all the help they are going to have is what the hon. gentleman (Sir Charles Tupper) and his followers are prepared to give them. I pity my poor fellow -countrymen of Manitoba or anywhere else if they ex- pect any justice from the hon. gentleman. Repeatedly has Mr. Laurier pronounced in favor of complete remedial legislation, i.e., legislation which shall re-establish the schools as they were prior to 1890, without any inspection, without any ex- amination of teachers, without any guarantee of efficiency. The Government's bill provided for all of thesta things. And that was why Laurier and his friends voted for the slaughter ofrthe bill. Mr. C.• A. Geoffrlon, M;P.,''is one of the prominent Liberals. Said he,' in the debate on the bill:— "I am just as anxious as hon. gentle- men opposite are that justice should be rendered, and that our Constitution should be respected. But I most emphati- cally say that this bill, which I have now before me, does not render justice, and I am most decidedly in favor of voting the six months' hoist, because the acceptance of such a bill would be a delusion and a denial of justice. It has the lapel of a Remedial Act, but I do not see the remedy. , . As this bill, if passed, will, in my opinion, exhaust the remedi- al legislation which is to be introduced pursuant to the order adopted by the Government, it will leave the Catholics of Manitoba in a worse position than they would occupy if this bill did not pass." "What Mr. Laurier Seeks. • Again, Mr. Laurier said: "I am certainly in favor of remedial legislation; but where I differ is with regard tp the methods to be adopted and the procedure to be adopted " Listen to another Liberal, Mr. Carroll: "Mr. Speaker, I am against this law, because it is going to cause irritation without relieving the minority. I am against this law, because I think it is an appeal to expediency. 1 am against this law because I think it is the death -blow to the French language in the province of Manitoba. I am against this law be - Cause I do not think that this Govern- ment, even if they were sincere, could render justice to the minority while they command the Tory phalanx behind them. Not a Strong Enough Dill. Mr. Geoffrlon said: "I shall vote against this bill, not because I am opposed to remedial legislation. On the contrary, I stated last year that I had no confidence in the promises that were made on behalf of the Government by one of the Ministers; but I have a strong faith that our leader will he able to suc- ceed where the Government are sure to fail. I have full confidence in my party, and not only in the leader of my party, but in his lieutenants. I oppose this bill precisely because I feel that if we Were to pass it to -day, it would put an end to all possible chance of re-establishing separate schools in Manitoba." Mr. Laurier's only supporter from west of Lake Superior is Hon. Joseph Martin, the author of the Manitoba School law. Mr. Laurier has said many a word in praise of Mr. Martin. He has also said that the Manitoba School law is perrecu- tion, That opinion was given to an au- dience of French Canadians. But, Mr. Facing -both -ways Laurier had another. opinion for the English-speaking Protestant 'people of Canada. When the Dominion Government, in a mild and politic manner, asked Premier Greenway to deal with the question, Mr. Laurier ordered the. Premier to send in a' reply which had been drafted by Attorney General Sifton and Mr. Laurier. In this document it was stated "There has been no wrong committed." Which Mr. Laurier are we to believe? The one who speaks in Quebec or the one that talks in Ontario? Doubtless the former. By religion Boman Catholic and e,y nationality French, the predilections o1 the Liberal leader are all in favor of separate schools, He has said so in the House of Commons, in a place in which, el., 'all places, even this astute master of a nbiguity would feel called upon to udproach telling the truth, Make Use of Diamond Dyes.

HOW LAURIER CHOPS AND CHANGES On the Trade Question as on Other Issues, He is Never Twice in the Same Place—His Incolisisteu- cies Shown Up. Will Canadians Allow Themselves to be Deceived by the Irresponsible Opinions and Promises of a Man Whose Object is Votes at Any Cost? There is no cause for wonder at the downspiritedness of the Liberals. They know that more than ever before the country is with the Government. They have no confidence in their leader. John Charlton, a leading Grit M.P., is on record as saying: "With a French-Cana- dian leader, and under the manipulation of such uaeserupulons machine politicians as J. D. Edgar et al.. I have not the ut- most confidence in the immediate future of the Reform party." The country, as in years gone by, holds just the same views. It is known that Mr. Laurier has no fixed opinion on any- thing, except that he wants to get into office. He began life as an out-and-out Protectionist, But lie soon fell into error, and became a Free Trader, Then Mr. Blake was forced out of parliament by the Anti -Canadian policy of Sir Richard, and Mr. Laurier became a shouter for unrestricted reciprocity—in other words, for handing Canada over to the Ameri- cans. He believed in protection against Great Britain and in reciprocity with the United States, A nice patriot! Shouting for the United States. In Toronto Mr. Laurier said—amid a chilling silence, it may be remarked: "The Liberal party, so long as I have anything to do with it, will remain true to the cause of unrestricted reciprocity until that cause is successful. I will not expect to win in a day, but I am pre- pared to remain in the cool shades of Opposition until the cause has tri- umphed,' • Now, assuming Mr. Laurier to be a triltl.fal man, we must believe that he tour ala faithful lieutenants—and even the unfaithful ones, like Charlton and Cartwright—still "remain true to the cause of unrestricted reciprocity until. that cause is successful." But, only a year ago, in Winnipeg, Mr. Laurier forgot his pledge, and came out as a Free Trader. He preached his new gospel in these words: "We shall give you Free 'Trade, and although it will be a hard fight, we shall not give in one inch or retrace one stop until we have reached the goal, and that goal is the same policy of Free Trade as exists in England to -day." Well, that was his belief for a time— or he pretended it was. Soon he had a change of heart, The Liberal leader went to the Eastern Townships, and there he said: "We will tax for revenue, but not a cent for protection. When we are in power wo will relieve the people of pro- tection, which is a fraud, a delusion and a robbery." Where was unrestricted reciprocity; where was Free Trade? Gone, lost, forgotten! The revenue tariff string was being twanged. But Mr. Laurier event to Montreal. There he had to talk to the working • classes. His statement there was very clear. • Protection was not to be aban- doned. Robbery was not to be abolished. On the contrary, duties were to be re- moved from raw materials, and the fraud and delusion as regards the finished pro ducts were to be continued. It stands to reason that it is impossible "to relieve the people of protection,l' as promised in the Eastern Township speech, and at the same time to continue protection as promised at Montreal. It is also impossi- ble to have a tariff for revenue only with not a cent for protection, and, concur- rently with it, a tariff exempting from duty tbn raw material which would necessarily be taxer under a revenue tar- iff and retaining the duties upon manu- factured articles which made as they are. in the country, yield no revenue. To the Right About Again. Yet another change. He harked back towards reciprocity. In Valleyfield, Que., April 12, he came out for a treaty of reciprocity with the 'United. States. He knows well, as every man who reads newspapers knows, that the United States will never agree to reciprocity un- less we impose a discriminating tariff on British goods. Hon. G. W. Ross, a mem- ber of the Liberal Government of On- tario, htet denounced reciprocity"because it will not be loyal to England." But that is not a consideration with Mr. Lau- rier. What he wants is Votes, Votes, Votes. And it matters not to him how lie fractures the truth, how he oversteps the bounds of consistency, so long as he g.ts them. Let us examine what this vacillating politician has pronounced in favor of:— He has advocated Protection. He has been a shouter for unrestricted reciprocity. He has pl!tdged himself to bring about Cdlnmercial Union. (Political union would follow fast in its footsteps, ac- cording to Ed. Farrar, the writer of Grit campaign pamphlets.) He has promised Free Trade in Winni- peg He has declared in favor of a revenlfe tariff in the Eastern Townships. He has pledged himself to continue protection in Montreal • And, to crown matters, ho went to Quebec, May 6, and told the Quebeckers that he wanted preferential trade with England. "By that," said he, "we shall have Quebec regain its pristine pros- perity," • . Mr. Laurier has a new trade doctrine for every town he visits. He forgets that the people of Canada read the newspapers. On the night of June 23 he will find that they have not been deceived by him, the political whirligig. a What is �1!
