at the . Island Teachers Convention

Our teachers have grievance — a genuine grievanve,—and they

are British men and women. Tle griev, ance consists in the fact Lhatthey have been indirectiy taxed to the amount of $6000 a year on account of the repeal of | the supplementary clause. By this blow

the best and most isfluential of our teach-

ers are (to suffer, to @ greater extent than other pcop'e, the result of the Srcazies ot promise, the mismanagement, ard ths | election year’s (Xtray*ganees of our Lib |}@i Government. The case for the ieacher [ we ws we'll and ably presented by Mr Cam pbe ‘ii, the Aseogiation’s president, 10

voice of the whole cct is evi-

dent that the teachers LEnow

«and, knowing, dare mantain.” It is evi-« intelligent io be bamboozied or cajoled even by ia the art of humbag as Premier Farquahson and Mr. McKinnon. It is evident that if "heir discontent are not

euch pas.-masiers the just g-ounds of removed by the the more ambitious amosg them will epecdily leave (ue Province and

our schoois will sr

ff-r a heavy Joss in scholarship and teaching ability. The conclusion is that the people of the Province must make good, in some way, the mouey which the teach -~

ers have been deprived of by the repeal of the sapplmentary clauee, or else be content with a lower class of sehools and a lower standard of edmcation. If the former alternative be adopted, the money must either come out of the public treasury—ino which case it must be put there by means of an additional Jevy upon the taxpayers,—or it must be supplied by & direct tax upon the people of each school district. If the Jatter alternative be adopted, this Province must go back to a lower plane in respect to education and see her sons and daughters at a disadvantage in comparison with these of the rest of America. Th's is the educationa! issue which has been drawn at the Teachers’ Conventiov ; and it is not likely that the teachers will weaken upon it when they return to their schools. T he pity is that this issue has been forced by reason of the bad management of an un scrupulous administration. If we now had the use of the sum of $15050 or $16,- 600 ayear which is paid away as the interest of the Provincial debt that bas been heaped up, our teachers would not now be filled with disconteat nor our tax payere constraiued to pay an additions] levy.

The Convention occupie! itself with

| (ome Other important ma'tcrs. Among these was ihe evil of c:ammivg, ec, rs sulting from the desire of individual

teachers to prepare as many yupi's a3 pos- sible for entracce to college. Mr. treatment of this evil was imasteriy.

Hay’s

The evil prevails ic New Brunswick as well as here,and Mr. Hay has evidently s:udied it pereonally and carefully. What he said about “the rush through the text book from cover to cover, the smattering of thie acience or that, tae loose and ditjointed methods of such subjecta as English Hisiory and Geography ” was accurately descriptive of methods followed in too many of the schools of Prince Edward Island; and his quotation of Max Muller’s, remark that “much of our modern education deals in preparing facts, cutand dried, foran examination” very apt. The results, likened to cut flowers, “‘briliiant for a time, but fading soon, and leaviog nothing behind, we have all repeatedly seen and noted in the early collapse de ath of many of our most highly endcwed young men and women. If the recent Teachers Convention should be followed by a reform in our educationai methods,- - by concentration of study iustesd of dif fuseness, by thoroughness instead of asmet tering,by stimulation of the pupils’ reasonins powers instead of appealstotheir memories: by the continual insulling in to the pupils of those moral principles which. acted upon, go toform high and noble charac- ters,—the people of the province wi!l have to cauee to thank ard bless our teachers,

ani to remember the Convention of 1298, 7+ ere

—The plebiscite costa million and a million and a quarter; and, ifthe Liberal | papers are to be believed, will amount to ‘ nothing.
