Tarte' guillotine has been very busy since the 2).'inister of Public Works a9- surued office, His latest official act, probably more yvorthy and more im- portant than the resit, has been to cut off one subscriber to THE NEws-RE- coRo—the Public Works Department at Ottawa --rind consequently oNE DOLLAR a year 'falls into the blood• stained basket. While receiving from the local post office such sad news a disciple of the late lamented .Hon. Alexander• Mackenzie, who has become disgusted and sick and tired of the present regime, gave us the cash for three paid -in -advance snhscrrhere. This is three to one "ag'n the govern- ment," and another illustration of how men great and small '•stop the press." Next I THE MANITOBA WUHOA.L QUES- TION, During the West Huron bye -election last winter Mr. M. C. Cameron, M. P., was very emphatic in denouncing in- terference with Manitoba by any Gov- ernment or any party. In fact be was opposed to .FORCE and all the evil con- sequences following interference, Man- itoba was to settle the whole question herself. Those who have taken an interest in this vexed and important question of schools in Manitoba will read the following from the Lindsay Warder, whose editor is a Member of parliament, and then breathlessly await --for a long tine—Mr. Cameron's denunciation of the scandalous Grit bargain As predict -ed and outlined in the Warder Smite time ago the Manitoba government have concluded a deal with the Ottawa government anent the school question. Desperate efforts are being made to prejudice the public mind in favor of the terms of settle- ment before they are announced. Thus the wily intriguers hope to modify the outhnrst of indignation sure to break forth when the disgraceful transaction becomes public. Stripped of alt equivocation the set- tlement engrafts on Manitoba the moss iniquitous and unfair system of separate schools in North America. The deal includes the following: 1. Half an hour, from 3.30 to 4 p, rn,, for any religious denomination to in- struct the children of that faith who choose to remain. 'That condition is unobjectionable. 2, Where there are thirty roman catholic children in a class, no matter if thele be fifty additional protostants, the school teacher of that class shall he a roman catholic. This is the rankest piece of bigoted legislation whether it be given the form of a REGULATION or a LA w of the province. Nothing in all the iniquities of Ontario's school legis- lation can co,npare with it. This is what Mr. Sifton and his colleagues swore they never would give. 3, The text books and teaching shall he in French or Engglish. Where are the great McCarthy? the wonderful Martin? the unswerving Sifton? and the stubborn Greenaway? 4. Mr. Sifton is to be Minister of the Interior at $7,000. The price is high, but not so high as formerly. His con- victions went cheap. 5. Mr. Prendergast, a French grit roman catholic lawyer bas a special judgeship erected for him and the peo- ple of Canada pay $12000 in cold cash each year for the job. Ontario's share, as it comes out of customs and excise, is over half of that sotn. Yet, the French roman catholice had to be ap- peased. So they get the French lan- guage ; a roman catholic schoolteacher wherever they can gather together thirty children no matter if there be sixty additional protestant children ; and a French roman catholic judge. Protestants paw almost entirely for those conditions. 6. Mr. Greenwav's "consolation" is private. The public have not yet been informed how much "logic" was infus- ed into hind to win his approval. It is known that a considerable; quantity would be requisite. 7. Mr. Martin's partner gets the gov- ernment law business in all western Canada ; and, as Joe himself is corn- paratively quiet, the public may learn In the near future how much they are to be taxed for that peace of wihd, 8. The text books are to he revised so as to remove everything objectionable to the roman ciathulies and French par- ties in Manitoba. 0. Protestants are to he privileged to pay for all this, and in addition, to be obliged, wherever thirty roman catholic children can he found, to have their protestant children educated by a roman catholic teacher. 10. It is probably also, that the peo- ple of Canada may he privileged to lose what ever lands Canada holds in Mani- toba as a gift to that province for be- traying the rights of protestants. 11. The people of Canada will also have sundry and several hills to pay in cold cash, amounting to hundreds of thousands of dollars for various bar- gains trade forming part of the great sale. 12. Protestant teachers are under the deal privilege to receive such a slap in the face as has never before been given to any body of educated ladies and gentlemen. Everyone is surprised that Hon. J.D. Cameron ,D- Cameron and Col. McMillan would be parties to such a disgraceful deal. No one is surprised at Greenway or Sifton. And now Sir Oliver Mowat is on the boards for Lieut. -Governor of Ontario. Let him first succeed in forcing on Manitoba the separate schools which the Dominion and Ontario Grits gain- ed power through. Sir Oliver's mis- sion has not yet been accomplished.

Since the Laurier party have started wholesale to "clean out the stables" there has been It great clamor among the Grits of Brussels for the head of Postmaster Farrow. Some of the Grits there have gone so far as to make anonymous lying charges that Mr. Farrow is a partizan of the most hitter stamp, and other charges in private unworthy good citizens --Grit ,rr Tory—are circulated in order that the hungry may succeed in disgracing what they call the "honorable" princi- ples and "honorable" policy of the once great Reform party. Mr. Farrow very properly defends himself as follows in the Brussels Herald of last week: -- DEAR SIR. --A few designing indi• vidmals in this village have been cir- culating a report to the effect that there is a law passed by Parliament that no civil servant can at any time, hat especially during an election, say that, his soul is his own on politics. They have said with reference to my- self in talking to others, that Farrow knew the law. Further, that he was in Piu•liament and helped to make it, and knew what he was breaking. Now to show the true inwardness of such people. There is no law on our Stet.nt.e Books in such a case. Ask any Justice of the peace who has the Dom- inion Statutes or any lawyer in this village, to show you such a law and he cannot, do so, for the good reason, there is no such law on our Statute honks. The only guide that we have to go hy, nre certain deliverances made m Pnrliament from time to time by pro- minent individuals on both sides of poli tics. I, as an Md Parliamentarian, remem- ber two such deliverances, or rather opinions, given by two very promin- ent men then in the Rouse. The first i mention was an opinion delivered by the late Sir John A. Mc- Donald, who said with reference to the civil servants, that he thought they each and alt should vote and support the Government in power. This opin- ion may be termed one sided. The other deliverance was made by the Hon. Edward Blake, and was express- ed as follows : He said, with reference to the civil servants, a difference should be made and especially related out village Postmasters whose salaries are small and insignificant compared with those of cities and towns, and that he thought that these men should be allowed to take a more active part in politics should they choose to do so, - Now these )tre the only two utter- ances I ever heard on the floor of Par- liament during the 15 years i had the honor to be a member., Then, I say again, where is the law? Mr, Laurier may lay down a law now, hitt it had 00 existence before, and "when there is no law there is no transgression." Besides I Rn) hold to affirm, and in- vite any one to pot me right if I ant wrong, that, in all my time as a mem- ber I can r•enlernber only one dismissal from office for political purposes and it was for gross misconduct to a tninist.er. One of the French translators of the House of Commons so far forgot him- self that he publicly abused the Hon. Mr. Chapleau to his face, and for this he was dismissed, hut save this solitary one, where in all Ontario was any one dismissed for his politics? Now what is my offence ? Not, that I neglected my office duties, for no one can say that, and my assistant has certified that all through the election, from beginning to end, i was in the office. I did not even go to the nomination of the candidates to hear the speeches. Of all the meetings held by the candi- dates, probn hly (10 or 70 of thein, i was at only two outside of Brussels, naine- ly, Town Hall, Morris, and Walton, G. F. Blair, Esq., one of Dr. Mac- donald's chief speakers in the cam- paign, has gi von me It certificate to t his effect that as Mr. Dickinson was seem() of speakers that night he advis- ed Mr. Dickinson to ask me to speak but that i positively refused. So that my whole sinning is at Walton, so far a8 the country is concerned. I acknowledge. and don't deny, that i spoke a few words at Walton owing to the sickness of E. L. Dickinson, but I never said vote for Dickinson or Dr. Macdonald, never mentioned their names. I merely stated and gave statistics as to the great growth our country had made in railways, trade and com- merce and specially the Post office„re- marks that would he appreciated on any non-political platform. As to my good conduct politically daring the election, no Netter proof .can he had that no one can come and claim the $50 Reward which I publish- ed in both our pavers. One writer, whom I suspect, and about whom I could make startling revelations as to partisan conduct in elections, writes in last week's Post and calls it bluff. The word bluff means; blunt, frank and hearty in speech or deportment. Yours Truly. Taos. FARROW. loom Of Y11 health, despondenoy and despair, gives way to the sunshine of hope, happiness and health, upon taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, because it gives renewed lite and vitality to the blood, and through that imparts gth, vigor to the whole this letter: saparfifa wonderfully, nerve stren and energy body. Read "Hood's Sar helped me changed sickness to health, gloom to sun- shine. No pen can describe what I suf- fered. I was deathly sink, had sick hgad- aches every few days and those terrible tired, despondent feelings, with {reart troubles so that I could not go up and unshine down stairs without clasping my hand over my heart and resting. In fart, it would almost take my breath away. 1suf- fered so I did not care to live, yet I had much to live for. There is no pleasure in life If deprived of health, for life becomes a burden.

The Grit promises of Senate reform will not materialize, J. Israel Tarte is a great head. He's evidently built on the dollar principle. According to Laurier a partisan is simply a Conservative. Every statement made by THE NEWS -RECORD during the last election has been verified. THE NEws-RI.coRD, according to the Minister of Public Works, is not a bosom friend or a "come along, John," of His Holiness, J. Israel Tarte. ' Office -holders under the Conserva- tive party, who throughout the coun- try denounced the Conservatives as truckling partisans, have in many cases been dismissed from office by the Lau'•ier party. And they were only partisans AGAINST their friends. The Grit press comment on Laurier's great increase in Canada's expendi- ture is something like this :—"!—H---!!! —1!!1—!!!!i" The longer the reign of Laurier and Tarte and the more money required and the greater the astonish- ment to his friends. J. A. Auld was elected for South Essex. He was a partner of the late Hon. W. D. Balfour, who formerly re- presented the constituency. 1118 maj- ority is ;about 1,000, while the Lite member had about 800. Mr. Auld's return is not a . nrprise. A combination of Roman Catholics and Protestants placed the Dominion French Roman Catholic Laurier party in power, There were enough partiz- ans on both sides to do it, and now, as THE NEWS -RECORD said before the elections, a lash was being prepared for the hacks of the kickers, And in many cases the lash has been applied. The (frit press asserts the Laurier party will "in due time deal with the tariff questio t)'# they have with the school questa'!" The schonl question deal has not yet been officially an- nounced, so that the proper thing for oor esteemed conferes to do would be to emerge from behind the political chameleon curtain and announce how these great questions are to be settled. The statement of Mr. A. W. Camp- bell, provincial road commission, that during the hast ten years there has been spent in money or in statute labor on the roads of Ontario some $35,000,000 should lead to general hard thinking on the subject of road making. Pro- perly expended, $35,000,000 ought to hare made many hundreds of miles of good roads more than chis province has to-day,—Brockville Times. While the customs office at Goderich has been conducted for years without an assistant to the entire satisfaction of the Government and the people, the economical Laurier party has increased the country's expenditure hy appoint- ing Mr. T. N. Dancey assistant. We believe he will prove a faithful officer. There are few, however, who take ser- ious stock in the statement that there is necessity for the increased expendi- ture. THE VOICE OF THE PRESS. No Reason for Tarte Getting Crusty. St. John Sun. Mr. Grenier, the Grit, newspaper man who calls Mr. Tarte n bondler, has been committed for trial with the cor- dial consent of himself and hij connsel: If Mr. Tarte keeps 00 telling of trans- actions like the $5,000 deal with Mr. Pacaud, people will soon begin to wonder at the moderation of Mr. Grenier's epithets.
