School ,Tax Bill Is. Repealed
For three years The sessions of the
Ontario Legislature have been pro-
viding Borne of the most dramatic
ficenes hi the history of the political
life of -this Province, biit legislative
• history has never provided, and it is
-doubtful if it ever will, a scene e4ual
-to that witnessed in the Legislative
Assembly—en Wednesday evening
and during the early hours of Thurs-
day morning of last week.
This climax to "a bitterly fought
• session came when PremieNlep-.
•
burn,without any warning, aito• .
the intense surprise of the peoPle of
• the Province, and the .even greater
• surprise of the Conservative opposi-
tion, camly got upon his feet and an-
n.ounced his . acceptance. of Mr. 14,
Henry's motion to repeal the legisla-
tion passed a year ag6, concerning
the division of school taxes between
public and separate schools. •
- To reverse a policy upon which he
has taken a strong stand, is not an.
• easy thing for any Premier to do,
. _nor has it many precedents in our
• political- history. But 'Premier
' - Hep-
burn did if, and by so doing, with
one sweep, he took the -ground from
beneath the feet of theConservative
....opposition by depriving them of an
election issue which, in° their 'belief,
Would have. swept them into power
at the next election, the • reasore--
they have been begging for a chance
• to try ever since this legislation was
Passed.
• As Is • known to every one in the
Province, separate schools' are as
much .a part of our e,clucatiOnal Sys-
tem as public schools, a right ,given
• to them under the Act of Confedera-
tion, and by that` Act the children of
• Catholic parents have just as much '
right to •a free education 'in separate
• sehools as the children of Protestant •
parents have to a free education in
. our public schools. ,
At - Confederation -- provision- was -
mad e for a division of taxes by which
• both schools would be supported,. a
. division, which at that • time, was
• bothfair and satisfactory- to • both
parties. And the matter was looked
• then as being permanently settled.
Unfortunately, however, the meth-
' ods of dpirig business have almost -
entirely changed, and changed in a
ina,nner unforseen by the legislators
• of those days.At first slowly, and
then rapidly, business has been large-
ly taken from private hands 'and
placed under the control of cornpan-
des and corporations.
.• This change, never having been an-
tieipated, naturally ne adeqeate pro-
• - vision wasmade for a just division
of corporation taxes as between pub-
• lic and separate schools. During the
course of years, the separate school
• share of taxation •'has steadily de• s'
creased to the point where it no long-
er will Support the schools, a fact re-
cognized by both political parties.
-• It was to re,medy this unjust in-
• - equality that Premier Hepburn' pass-
ed his school assessment act of a
year ago. In only, a few and scatter- -
ed distriets in the country would this ,
new act ha've made any change in
• school taxation, but in the Cities and
some larger • centres, the situation
was different • .
It is in Toronto and other cities
hat the majority of the. separate .
'1&1s are located, and it is also
" that the larger. business 'coin-
"•4nd corporations, who supply
derable amount' of the school

But not now. And never, again. is -
•the Conservative, party likely to en-
danger the loss of their best fighting
arms by bluffing Mr. Hepburn. It
doesn't pay because he is really a
very hard man to bluff. -
The other dramatic incident of
that Wild night in the Legislature
was when Hon. Leopold Macauley,
former Minister of Highways in the
Henry Government, was expelled
from the House for refusing to obey
the Speaker's orders and attempting
to speak after the Premier had mov-
ed closure on the debate.
We quite agree with Mr. Macauley
that Mr. Hepburn made a mistake in
moving his closure. - But, if the Hon.
-gentleman had made a dignified pro-
test when refused permission to
speak, instead of indulging in ir-
responsible words and actions, he
would- have occupied a firmer place
in the estimation of the people than
he does to -day.
Countg Papers Amalgamate
The announcetnent was made the
first of the week that an arnalgama-
tion had been effected between, the
Goderich Signal and Goderich Star,
effective April 1st.
The Signal,' owned by Mr. W. H.
Robertson, was founded in 1848, and
• has always been a consistent and
able supporter of the Liberal party.
. On the other hand., the Star has al-
• ways .been a strong Conservative
paper and was purchased three
years ago by Mr. W. Wilkes, a form-
er owner of the Midland Times.
. Mr. Robertson, it' is announced, .
will be the managing editor of the
combined papers and Mr. Wilkes will
be proprietor. The paper hereafter
• will be issued twice a week, each
Wednesday and Saturday.
• Although the county town is cut
off on one side by the lake, bdth
• papers enjo3red a generous circula- •
tion and they should make a streng
combination_ Under the • changed -
business; conditions of to -day, no
• town, not even a county town, can
' support two good weekly papers, but
• with only one in the field, Goderich
awdstrft-readersrs will enjoy -a bet-
• ter paper, while advertisers will be
• immeasurably benefitted by the .sin-
gle coverage. ,

• Don't Step On ft Yet
The new speed law passed at the
• recent Session of the Legislature,
Which permits a speed of 50 miles
• an hour ,on- the open highways and .
3 iles per hour _in all incorporated
centres or built up areas, is not,
as most motorists believed, already
• in effect. In,fact the new laW does ,
not come into effect until May 24th
next.. So don't step on it yet.
Under the new speed 'regulations,
traffic on the highways should be
just as safe, if not more so, than un-
der the old regulation, which no mot-
orist, apparently, ever paid' any.at-
tention to, and which the authorities
in recent years, have made little at-
tempt to enforce.
Of course fifty miles an hour may
not be called speed by some motor-
ists, but it is travelling justthe same.
And it is a speed linnt which the ma-
jority of drivers will consider quite
ample, and will be quite willing to
respect. •
• Otherwise, the traffic officers .will
be quite justified in taking atand in
affairs' and they vvili have the public
behindthem in so doing, whereas in .
arrest at .thirty-five 'miles' an hour
rarely met with public approval, ex- -
eept under particular traffic co/Kil-
t-ions..
In munieipalitied and built-up ar-
eas however, we do not believe that
public safety will, be improved by
changing the epeed„lithit from twen--
. ty to thirty miles. At least, unless
- parents fa the smaller towns develop

legiate are in the main part academic
,and lack almost entirely those ele-
ments that might develop any inher-
ent practical talents. The instruc-
tions in art are exceptioes, but the
course is toe short. It ie therefore

ple, after years 'spent on studies of
this kind, are unwilling to engage -its
