Columbia, the Northwest Territories and Maaitoba, in fact, to the whele of Canada, will, in my opinion, be very-great.” Askedeas to the political-outlook in the West, Sir Charles said, “The dissatisfac- then that is found existing im eyery section of the Western country iu regard to all the pledyes given by the Liberal party before | they obtained power, ard their failure to redeem any of tbem is very great, aad has produced a wide-spread feeling ot revul- tion against the Geverement, which will make itself manifest at no distant day. Indeed, there is every reason to believe that the country west o¢*Ontaria will, at

dowble the prices obtained for many years past, have rendered the agricultural classes quite prosperous and iadependent, and I bavemo doubt that pojelation and capital will steadily pour into vee country, with greater rapidity than imthe past.”
““Wikat is the impression created in the WestSir Charles, by the Yukon reguia— tions mow in force ?”
“Ad said before, ander proper regala- tions there is no reason to doubt the great Canadian Yukon gold €elds may be made, forapeoy years to come, the means of creatieg a great demaad for the praduc- tions of Manitoba and the Northwest, aa well.eas the agricultarel ,portion of British Columbia.

Thegood crops and the realization of ,
comparison of figures not comparable, invoking the assistance of the 10-year old pupilof the public schools tomy aid, dis- crediting the Pope’s public utterance, ridi - culing the priest, and having & good time generally. Well, this is the festive season and if natural history didn’t give us the little peculiarity of the cuttle fish as ap- plizeble to the case, we might look else~ where for explanation.
Purn and twist the figures of the Year Book as you will, you cannot escape the conclusion they abundantly upbold—that the percentage of all school attendance in Quebec is about 76 per centard only 56 percent in Ontario. You accuse me of inohuding colleges, etc., a Quebec and exdlu jing them in Ontario. I do nothing ofthe sort. You are anxious to confioe me to the public schools f Quebec, be- cause fully one third of tie school pers centage is in tae collegiate institutions, while in Ontario only a mere fraction of the average is made up outside the public sebool. This kind ofjaggling will not work. I hold you to your figures, and no amount of fireworks #ll deroute me. ‘Peur Year Book for i806, and your Re- pert for 1895, say cleatiy that there was an average attendance a school in Oa- terio of 271,549 pupils m 1895; and the eame Year Book and the Supt’s. Report for 1896, puts Quebec’s average for 1896 schools, colleges and @/l, as in Ontario’s case) at 230,419. The enrolment in the termer province was 64,551 pupils, io vhe latter 303,619. Now, then, call up wour ten-year older and he will find, pos- sibly with your help, that this gives the percentage of attendance as 56 in Ontario, and just a fraction less than 76 in Quebec. Lhe page you cite, “St2,” in the Year Book ip your fast must be a mistake.
Now, take the percentage of the popula- tion at school, and your poor little free school boy i wrong again. Ehe population of Quebec, by the census of 1890, is 1,488,433 and that of Ontario 2b14,32!, Take now the figures of average attendance given above for both Provinces ; end vou will find that fer from your [little tatie, worked oat on vour Own basis, Qeebec still maintains ber lead splendidly having over 15 per cent of the population at echoo! for Onterio’s 12 per cent. Bat to remove this sutject from the possibility of newspaper manipaiation, det me say that Ter pefectly prepared to submit it to any hoeest man for examination and decisiea confident, as Lam, that both my sincerity and my figures wild be ugkeld.
Yanust ask you to make room fera short citation frem whe -ex-Premier of Qnevec’s speech Leture the Houre on this sulyect:
“ery wel, Mr. Speaker, I do not fear the comparison with Gntaria, Let us take Quebec first. We have 32,420 children of aschool age and 363,610 inscribed tu the schools. Well, what is the mean attendance? The mean attendance is 230,440, or 76 percent. Now take Ontario, and so as pot to be accused of partiality, I hold in my hand the ministeé’s repore for 1895. The school population is piven at §93.84; of thie num ber 480,979 .are between 5 and 21 years. I call your «ittention to those figures which form the basis in On- tario and favor a more considerable +choo! attendance. Now the number of prpiis enrolied is 483,203. The mean assistauce is only $68 334 or 56 per cent,—20 per | centdess than in the province of Quebec. (applausep * ° ° * These figures surpaes all commentary, and ,zive the lie to the caluerinators of this Provinee”’ If I err, you will see, I err in the good ceuanpany of the respeetive Ministers of Education, the$Year Book. (your own pet authority) and Hon. Mr. Flyoao.
You will sag this letter is too long also, I suppose, and you edit the paper and can say what you please. [ would iike to show up your Ggures about the illiteracy of Catholic countries but must await another occasion. Meantime, I refuse to believe that ang intelligent Protestant will take thera seriously with the spectacle of the Catholic Church’s work for education before him and his knowledge, that through her the world has got about all the secular science it posseeses. As to Mulhall, I need only assure vou here that no serious student places any confidence in those figures. Onjy a few years ago they were completely exploded by a Unitarian Minis~ ter named Clark, who was specially dele- gated from bis Church in the United | States to verify them. He is now a mem-
ber of the Paulist order, if 1 mistake not, such tactics having disgusted him with the
zealots, aod induced him to study the true ' inwardness of their attacks on t he Catholic , Church.
Truly yours,
