the Northweot Autonomy bine it
says
4g Why proVince ivhich ought
to be made target thug held down?
The story is told by 14e Soleil,the
mouthpiece of Sir Wilfrid Laurier
in Quebee. Manitoba has exercised
its freedom. Mapiteba has adopted
a ,school system too modern for Sir
Wilfrid Laurier. Manitoba has de-
termined to give the pe,ople a sound
edueation 'at the expense of the state,
and to leave dogma to the churehes.
For this.offence Sir Wilfrid is " pun-
ishing" the provinr by refusing it
the extension to which it is entitled.
If eve have eoercion. for the new pro-
vinces, we -have, in the treatment of
ganitoba, insolence. What a com-
binetion of improper motives and
qualities this wereive scheme !has
produced I The issue itself ha ls a-
risen in falsehood. Sir Wilfrid told
the Liberals ef Ontario and the
west that he was an antioteereionist,
and that he intended to rule on that
basis. Never aid he announce to
thein that it was his' purpose to lei
his on peculiar educational views
upon 'the Western Territories by
force, land contrary to the public de-
sire in that porticular. -Yet it is
now clear i that white figuring as a
friend of freedom, and as a provin-
cial lighter, he was under promise in
another !quarter to violate the anti -
coercion pledge." •
A 'paper of the pesitiop and influ-
ence of the Mail 'should be above this
sort of petty warfare. It should not,
for the sake of ecoring a temporary
party advantage, indulge in mean
and utilikely insinuations, which can
only have the effect of embittering
sectarian strife in this country,where
all should be peace and unity. It
sliciuld leave that sort of thing to
the more unscrupulous and less in-
fluential of its eontemporaries, such
as the Toronto World, the Hamilton
Spectator, the- Ottawa Citizen, and
journals of that ilk. In the first
piece Le Soleil, the French paper in
Qucibec referred to, ie not the mouth-
r,ie.ce of Sir Wilfrid Laurier. He has
a teundredtimes declared that he has
no journalistic mouth piece. and that
he is not responsible for the utter-
ances of any paper either -in Quebect
or elsewhere. The Mail might, with
equat truthfulness and even greater-
fairuess, beld Sir Wilfrid responsible
for- the utteranoes of the Toronto
'Globe, which has declared itself op-
posed to Separate schools in any
form. In the second place, if 'Mani-
toba. has "exercised its freedom " in
educational matters, will the Mail
please explain who it was that en-
abled them to do So. Was it Sir
Charles Tupper and his colleagu.es.
Did not the Mail support and. up --
hold the Tepper Government in its
efforts to coerce Manitoba and. to
prevent that Province from exore
tieing its freedom of which the Mali
now boastsAnd who was it who
took his political life in his hand,
and, in opposition to many of. the
highest dignitaries of his own
stepped in and prevented Sir Charles
Tupper and the Mail from .coercing
-Manitoba and securing for the peo-
ple ef that Province, as the Mail
puts it, " a sound system of eduea-
tion, leaving dogma to the ehurele"
Tbe titail knows that it was Sir Wil-
frid Laurier who did this, and it has
never forgiven him for having done
so, end this is one of the causes for
Represent hatred.
The tilait must have a mighty poor
epinion of the. Itntelligente of its
-readers if it thinks it can lead them
to believe that Sir Wilfrid Laurier
is now trying to "punish" the people
Of 'Manitoba for doing what he help-
ed them to do, and what they could
hot have done without his help. If
the -Mail has any evidence that Sir
Wilfrid is " under promise in another.
quarter" to do what he should not
do, it should produce it, and not in-
dulge in mean insinuatiobs. The
vety feet, however, that it does not
firodure the evidence is tho very best
proof that none exists. If Sir Wil-
frid, in the Atonomy bills, had left
the West "free," as it ,calls it, it
would have been among the first and
the loudest in ,condemning him for
'having done so. It stood on the
fenee on this question for several
weeks, Tracey to jump down on either
side, until it was definitely decided
what the educational clauses in the
'Aiitonemy bills were to be, and then
it -took up its try against "coercion."

• the legislature thet has the settling
ef the • matter, but the Dominion
Parliament and the Province must
take what is given. 'A...general elec-
tion every other week would not af-
fect the result one iota. Besides
this, there is no difference of opin-
ion between the people of the Pro-
vince On the subject, as all, both
Conservatives and Reformers are
anxious to have the boundaries of
their Province extended as widely
as is practicable and a general el-
ection evill not make them more un-
ited in this respeeit.
It is shrewdly suspected, how-
ever, that this is only a pretext. The
facts es stated, are, that the Gov-
ernment think that this would be a
popular question to appeal to the
people on and that the present Gov-
ernment,. who are rapidly losing
easte with the people, would be en-
abled to extend their lease of power
by aboot two years by a ruse, of the
k' d proposed. This seems quite
e. The present Government,
h Isupported so largely. in the
ture has never been a strong.
'or e popular Government. They have
sueceeded simply because circum-
stances happened te be in their fee.
voe,. The Liberal party are weak
and times have been, so good that
peciple,had net nautili time or incline. -
`off to think about politics. But the
hoe has ,come that the members Of
the !Cabinet are commencing tit real-
ize that. unless some !such ruse as
that stated tean be resorted to, they
tahnot stand another election 'and
-hence their great solicitude 'about
the bOundaries of the Province. Mr.
Roblin and his ;colleagues have never
been noted for their adaptability
for their present positions. They
itehieved 'them on the shoulders of
Hugh John Macdonald and because
he was his father's on and not on
account of any special ability and
merit on their own behalf. In fact
many 'of them at the time of their
elevation to the Cabinet were littk
known- in the Province. and sarae of
them at least, bad they eemained in •
Ontario would never have reached a
municipal council. It is notisurpris-
ing, therefore,- that men of this-
etapah should resort to any dodge
to extend their term of -offiee.
, Should they 'carry out their inten-
tions, as at present reported, it
would be a good tiling if the peo-
ple would swee,p them aside, and place
better men in the positions they
now 'occupy. - The change, no matter
whn 1- the eio I i ti ca I Complexion,
could +scarcely fail to be in the inter-
ests of the Province.
