menta, and only want to add religious
instruotion to their school curriculum,
the whole question oan easily and quick.
Iy be settled.
Tina Manitoba School question is a
thorn in the side of the Dominion Gov-
ernment, more to since Hon. T. Green -
way's Government has declined to accept
the interference of the Ottawa authorities
in their Provincial affaire. W, F, Mc-
Lean is a Conservative M. P., and also
the editor of the Toronto World. In
Tuesday's issue he says :-"The political
sitnation inoreasos in gravity. One or
two papers have professed to ignore what
is going on at the Capital and have sought
to have the public believe that a crisis is
in no sense impending. The fact is, how-
ever, that if the Government introduce a
Remedial Bill on the lines of the Reme-
dial Order they will certainly be defeated
in the House, and if after that defeat the
Conservative party, as a party, go to the
country on a Remedial legislation pro.
gram they will also meet defeat there.
If it is the fact, as it undoubtedly would
appear to be, that Sir Charles H. Tupper;
Mr. Oufinet and Sir Mackenzie Bowell
have practically declared for the inteoduee
Mon of such legislation, and with certain
defeat ahead, surely then the crisis is a
serious one. The Government have been
allowing themselves to drift along with-
out ascertaining how Remedial legislation
would effect their followers. At last the
Conservative members have undertaken
the task of conveying to their leaders in.
formation that the leaders should have
sought for themselves. The information
so conveyed must bid Sir Mackenzie
Bowell pause, for the Conservative mem-
bers from Ontario to the number of 80
and to the number of 20 from other prov-
inces
rovinces will not be able to support Remedial
Legislation. No support of Rouges from
Quebec or Liberals from other provinces
will make up the defection.
THE Wingham Advance, always on the
alert to take a drive at Dr. Macdonald,
M. P., is huffed because the Dr. objected
to Mrs. Thompson receiving a govern-
ment grant of 425,000 and quotes from
Saturday Night to prove that the Dr.

§25,000 to het pay Sir John Thompson's
s
funeral expenses to which Dr. Macdonald
i
and other Liberals objected and voted
against :-Last week the general items of
expense connected with Sir John Thomp-
son's funeral, aggregating thirty-three
thousand dollars, were given to the public.
A couple of Ministers intimated that over-
charges had been made, some of the
tradesmen demanding fifty and seventy-
five per cent. more than their goods were
worth. In consequence of this the bill
was reduced to twenty-five thousand
dollars, but the Canadian taxpayer is not
sure even yet that all the over -charges have
been eliminated, as the totalis still swelled
by such matters as top -boots for the
undertaker's assistants, overcoats, etc.
Sir John A. Macdonald's state funeral
cost some six thousand and Sir George
E. 'Cartier's some ten thousand. What
are we to think of the officials who
authorized this wasteful nae of money
at Sir John Thompson's funeral ? The
remains were landed at Halifax and in-
terred there, the Imperial Government
paying all the expense of sending the
body Home to Canada. To whom was
this money paid ? Were not some of
these large amounts seized by political
favorites of the Government or adherents
of Sir John Thompson's church 2 Are
top•boots and overcoats any particular
sign of sincere grief when worn by under-
takers' aesistants ? No shock to the
sincere public grief of Canada over the
death of Sir John Thompson could be
greater than the fact thathis political and
religious friends endeavored to open the
treasury while they closed his grave. It
is a sickening episode. And then what
are we to think of the Government that
is -responsible for the weakness or dis-
honesty displayed in giving carte blanche
to anybody 2 In the first place, if this
expenditure was undertaken by the
Government with any idea that the sutra
would be so Iar.'eaone, itproves that
those in charge of our funds are entirely
reckless of the difficulties under which
the taxpayer labors. If they foolishly
gave open orders to shopkeepers and
undertakers in Halifax and wore paralyzed
by the bill when it came in, it simply
proves that they are unable to run as
simple a thing as a funeral without
expenses exaggerated beyond the bounds
of human reason. As I remarked last
week, we are not prone to discuss items
of expense in connection with the burial
of the well loved. dead,. but when we re-
member that no public work has been
undertaken without robbery of the public
till being the notorious adjunct of the ex-
penditure,are we nob justified in thinking
that thetsis something radically wrong ?
1f it were a solitary item of folly or oxtra-
vegenee it could easily be passed over,
and those who mourn the late Premier
would be most ready to overlook it, but
when we consider the other jobs, the other
extravagauoss, £s itnot right that wo
should penes and ask ourselves, cannot
even ,.go sinlpfe.and Pall a tl)iuf,% as a
funeral Dauer without it being matte the
000askin of an .ex111bltioe that is either
one of frightful disregard of expense or
an .example of depravity Ivhon svee grief
isrostituted to the suds of partizanship?
Whiohever way wo take it, the disolosures
in oonneeticu with the experts05 of Sir
John Thonpeou's funeral are thoroughly
outrageous and scandalous.

Mr. Joseph N. Barton, who lives abbot

To those who are weak, easily tired,
nervous, or whose blood is out of con-

a veritable boon, caring when all other
medicines fail, and restoring those who
give them a fair trial, to a full measure of
health and strength. They will be found
an absolute cure for 8t. Vitus dance,

female system, correcting irregularities,
euppreeeions and all forms of female

a radical cure in all cases arising from
mental worry, overwnrk, or excesses of
any nature. Dr. Williams Pink Pills
are sold only in boxes bearing the firm's
