EVIDENCE OF THE COMPACT. Ile theré was a compact with the minor- itv in Manitoba, we must of course vote that repudiate a note of hand or a cheque sim-
it shall be carried out. We would not ply because we do not like the principles of the holder: neither wili we refuse te the minority in Manitoba the right to sep- arate schools if it can be proved that it
was bargained for and agreed to. Prove tous that there wa: a compact to thie effect and we shall certainly vote for the passage of the P »! Bill. So say many honest P Liberal and L bera!-Conse- @®

3. “ The instructions I received were in writing and consisted of three documents.
True copies of two of these documents are hereto annexed and marked with the letters A and 8 and the thire there was a Bill of Rizhts
(Exhibit B.) the seventh clause of which was as folloxs—That the schools be sep- srate and that the public money for schco!s Le distributed among the ditferent denomin- ations in proportion tv their respective pe pulation-<, according so the system of the Province of Quebec.” . ,
5—The said delegates had frequent and
rotracted conferences with Sir Join Mac- aks and Sir George E. Cartier, who had been appointed a2 committee by the Canadian Government for the purpose of negotiating with us, which conferences ex tended to the second day of May.
6. During the said negotiations, the eaid committee submitted to delegates a draft ot a bill containing the terms upon which they were prepared to consummate the union. This bill contained 26 clauses and the 19.h thereof was an adaptation of section 93 of the British North America Act.
7. Upon the margin of the said draft bill I wrote my comments or remarks op- posite each of the sections. Opposit? the said clause i9 I wrote as follows: “This clause being the same asthe British North American Act, confers, so I interpret it, as fundamenta! principle, the privilege of separate schools to the fullest extent, and in that is in conformity with article 7 of our instructions.” et oe a

the following resolutin was amid cheering unanimously passxd:—‘That the Legislative Assembly of t.is country do now,in tle name cf the
people,accept the Manitoba Act and decide on entering the Dominion of Canada cn the terms proposed in the Confederation Act.”
il. The copy of the bill of rights which I received as aforesaid prior to my depar- ture for Ottawa I retained in my own por- session until the trial of Lepine in 1874 for the murder of Thomas Scott. At that trial I was called as a witness and did as such produce to and leave in the custody of the court the said copy of the bil of righte, since shich time I have never seen it. have the

‘Unquestionaly yldo The is no doubt about it. I pelieve that when the measure was before parliament & proposition was made to atrike the clanse out. It was then held by the gowerwment that the terms of the bill were an agreement between the Manitoba delegates and the government, which would not be binding on Manitoba unless ratified without change.

ably nine men out of tea will agree that

oar public debt is larger than it ought to be, and that it costs too much to govern this eountry.” Now, the point to be considerd is, will the accession of the Opposition to office lessen the public debt or the amount to be taxed out of the pockets of the }e0- ple? Is there any likelibood that gentle- men who, as members of P:oviacial Gov- ernments, have doutded and trebled the provincial debts and added largely to the burdens of direct taxation, will, as mem- bers of the Dominion Government, reduce taxation 7 have in- eome-

FREE TRADE.
We hear it occasionaliy etated, even yet, that Free Trade would giye us better prices
for our eggs, potatoes, horses,etc. It is to be remembered that our voting for free
trade will not give us free trade with the United States, where the prospects are for increased protection, and have already free trade with Great Britain. The
only vote that is now at all likely to im-
that we
prove our commercial position is a vote for Preferential Trade. The British author- ities seem to be waiting to see what the Colonies have to say about that; and Sir Charles Tupper by making Preferential Trade a plank in the Liberal Conservative platform has given all Canadian electors a chance te do so.

FACTS
THE MEN WHO WANT TO RULE-
“The Liberals in this part of the coun-
prepored. ” Thirdly, we have the Manitoba Act itself | which expressly states that “ nothing” (in ! any law relating to education rassed by | the province) “ shail prejudivally effect | any right or privilege with respect to de-' nomi atione? hools which any class of persons have by law or practice in the Pro- vince at the union;’ and “an appeal shall

CAMPAIGN NOTES,
| Canada and the Empire is praying for the | success of the grit party.
| —The Toronto Globe says “there will ; be no coercion under Laurier,” whereupon
| the Halifax Herald remarks that there ,
will be no “funder Laurier.” {| —Halifax Herald: When the grit papers {announced that Sir Oiver’s Jetter hed caused a “thrill” in the grit party, .t was a misprint. They meant a “chill.” —QOttawa Free Press (Opposition): It
| is much to be regretted that Liberal inter ests should be jeopardized by the miser- able heelers who have worked so much mischief in Montreal.
—The-prospects of Laurier’s success ia the campaign are so blue that the wily Sir Oliver sticks close to his snug little nest in Toronto. Sir Oliver has given the public the etraight tip uot to bank on Laurier.
—The Pioncer does not state correctly th: fa ts upon which it asserts that “Tue Examiner was badly tripped up by the Maritinie leader > A correct statement of the facts will show that it was the Mari- (ime l ader who was tripped up.
St. John Sun: Mr. much app'aud-d ov his a ating tbe truism thar the pv sacred as any priva‘e suf: Some very intimate avsociaes of Mr. Laurier have got trouble by treating the treasury of Quebec as their private safe.
The Pioneer states to-day that Sir Oliver Mowat has “publicly announced his determination to resign the Premier- abip of Ontario,” but the Pioneer ought to tell the whole truth. It ought to say that Sir Oliver will resign after the electious if Mr Laurier should happen to be success-
ful.
—From 1368 to1874, under Sir John A. Macdonald’s administration, the total trade of Canada increased from $131,627, 632 to $217,565,510. Under Grit ruie, from 1874 to 1879, trade decreased from $217,565,510 te $162,455,682. Under the National Policy, 1879 to 1895, the trade increased from $152,455,681 to $224,420,- 385.

Pelicy as well as its very name, which is an inspiration in itself, and the originator of the Nationa] policy is the man best fitted to interpret and guide it, as well as to secure its proper enlargerent.”
—North Sydney Herald: Oar friends of the Grit persuasion have tried tariff for revenue only, commercial union, unre stricted reciprocity, free trade as it is in fngland, and now they are back to their original plank of 1874, with its soup kit- chens and low wages attachments.

—The Montreal Star reports that Sir Adolphe Caron bas been informally offer- ed, and has consented to aecept, when for- mally offered, the nomination for Otiawa city. This is the ontcome of a desire on the part maoy of his friends in Ottawa to show Sir Adolphe some mark of es- teem he will lasting!y value, and with a view of healing the breach between the two Conservative parties here,
—North Sydoey Heraids The high- flown theories about free trade which the grits have been indulging in are consider- ably modified now that ‘they are face to face with the electors, They intend, if they are victorious on June 23, not to make any sweeping reductions, but to gradually modify the tariff. Formerly, they likened protection toa huge fire consuming the country, and they intend to extinguish it by putting on a bucket or two of water a month.
—~Hamilton Spectator: Gentlemen of the Conservaiive party : Go into the cam- paign with the idea of working hard and
faithfully until the last vote is pulled, Take nothing for granted. Be sure. Let
the Grits indulge in their customary ante- election cockivees. It is their blessed privilege to win elections up to the time that the votes are counted. Let them have their fun before election day, and take yours afterwards. The last laugh is a goed deal better than the first one,
—St. Jobn Sun: In his Charlottetown adress Mr Davies denounced the Canad. adian iron bounties. A prospective col- league of Mr. Davies (Sir Oliver Mowat) does not share this feeling. He has added tothe Dominion Government bounty a provincial bounty to iron made in his own province from Canadian “ore. It would certainly be very wrong for Sir Oliver to spenn Ontario money to increase the pro- tection to an interest already too highly protected Werecommend a conference between Mr. Davies and Sir Oliver.
—Moncton Times: For an old parlia- mentary hand sir Oliver Mowat made a curious blunder in his letter promising to take a cabinet offise in the event of Mr. Laurier’s success at the polls. This letter. he addressed to “Hon. Wilfred Laurier, M. P.,” forgetting for the moment that Mr. Laurier is not an M. P, at present, parlia- ment having ceased to exist. The error, says the Ottawa Citizen, is almost as bad as that of Mr. Dalton McCarthy, who told the public that four Premiers of Canada had resigned within five years, of whom three died in office.
Montreal Gazette: “In a letter to Mr. Laurier Sir Oliver Mowatt, among other things, say#; ‘It is the general opinion of the party, to whose favor and confidence are owing my twenty-three years of the premiership of Ontario, that the crisis is #0 grave that every personal sacrifice has to be made, and every incidental! risk run.’ Aud therefore Sir Oliver decided that he would stand manfully at his present post in Toronto, with its $5,000 a year, till he saw if Mr. Laurier would be in a position to offer him another one with $7,000 a year at Ottawa. Sir Oliver has mistaken ceu- tion for courage again.”
—The United States believed some of the ghost stories the Democrats were tel! ing about protection and elected Cleveland in 1892. Crash went banks, factories closed, farms declined in value, and Coxey led an army of idle men to Washington looking for work. Nearly every railway in the United States pas-ed into the hands of receivers. The national debt increased at the rate of $50,000,000 a year, nothing to show for it, Our experience will be the same if men like Laurier, Uartwright, Pacaud and McShene get control and are allowed to monkey with the tariff,
—The grit provincial governments in- tend throwing all their influence against Sir Charles Tupper’s government in this campaigu. They want more power, more cflice, which reminds us of the Montreal Gazette’s trite saying, “There never has been in Canada a grit government, either federal or provincial, that lessened the annual expenditures, lowered the taxation, or reduced the public debt. There never has been in Canada a grit goverument, federal or provincial, that did not increase | the annual expenditures, extend the taxa- tion and enlarge the public debt.’’

Other Folk's Affairs.
The most inquisitive persons often affect indifference regarding the affairs of others, and flattter themselves that they are keeping their curiosity well in hand at the very time that they are giving full rein to it. Aunt Jane Jasper belonged to this class. It was her boast that she had **all she could do to ’tend to ber own pus- iness, without meddling with the @tfairs of other folks,’’ and that she ‘never both- ered her heai about things that did not concern her.’’
She was one day telling about a con- versation she bad ‘‘struck up'’ with a woman sitting beside her on a street car.
‘““She was a real nice-appearing wom- an,’’ said Aunt Jane, ‘‘and [ thought we might as well be talkin’ together agset- tin’ there mum and glum; so I spoke to her, and she-answered back rea) pleasant, and we talked for three miles.
‘“‘T asked her name and where she lived, and if she was married and what her husband did, and how many children she had; and I found out about a family trouble that was worrying her a good deal.
‘‘She was trying to break her mother's will, and she wasn’t on speaking terme with her own brothers and sisters, and her husband and her didn’t get along very well together.
“She had on a beautiful diamond ring that she told mo cost $200, and she'd an elegant black silk that cost three dollars a yard, for I asked her the price-of Iit,’’
‘Did you ask her where she had it made?’’ asked Aunt Jane's listener, whereupon the old lady bridled visibly, and said, sharply :— i
“Why, of courss, I didn’t! s'pose I'd be that inquisitive?’’—¥ Companion.

It seems about settled that Hon. Mr Angers will resign his seat in the Senate and run for Dorchester, where the party managers hope to capture the seat from Vaillancourt.
Sir Hector Langevin will it is stated, be called to the Senate in the place of Mr. Angers.
Hon. Thomas Charles Casgrain will either run in Montmorency against Char- les Langelier, or in Quebee Centre against F. Laagelier.
Hon. L. O. Taillon returned from Quebec to-day and appears confident as to the result in that district.
