{TWO WEEKS | THINK OF IT!)
The Views and Opinions of Principal Grant.
[CONCLUDED. }
it has been saidthat it is not possibleto dis-; tinguish between the Jesuits and the Ro- man Catholic Church. Logically it may not be possible, but practically it is; and statesmen know that they have to deal with practice. Lite isa good deal wider than logic. If the distinction cannot be made, how came it that the only person to offer anything like effective resistence to the incorporation of the Jesuits was the jhead of the Roman Catholic Church in \Canada? He was overborne, but he suc-
'ceeded in witholding legal existence from
‘them in the dioceses round Quebec. Other ‘Roman Catholic ecclesiastics acknowledge
|. 2 SCROFULA. BRONCHITIS, COUGHS AND | {frankly in conversation that they dread
‘and dislike the order, that their incorpor- ation was a mistake, and their endowment the result of a political intrigue. How can a bishop who wishes to be master in his own house welcome the Jesuits to his |diocese? But what can be done now? you ask. Had not Quebec the right to do what it liked with its own money? 1, for one, |felt from the first that that argument could ‘not be answered. Quebec may throw its millions into the St. Lawrence. But two things it may not do. It must not turn round and ask us to replace the millions, and it must not deny to people anywhere else the freedom that it claims for itself. If there is any clause or any loophole in the constitution, in virtue of which it can claim either of those wrongs, the constitu- tion must be amended. Justice is the only basis on which there can be a good under- standing between individuals or provinces. When Mr. Mercier gives liberal grants of money totheJesuits,to the Protestant school board, to universities in and out of Quebec, to municipalties in debt, to colonization, repatriation and railway schemes, to every Roman Catholic and Protestant church that chooses to apply, for each and all of which objects a strong ioral claim can be

urged, it is entirely his affair. But when
he has received great applause and some ; ppt a
measure of political support fur a glorious
concordat
turn round and ask us to pay the bill, Yet that is the programme which already
has
been proposed, and which is sure to be pressed. Itisa PROGRAMME MORE RUINOUS TO QUEBEC,
than to any other province. It means in- calculable loss of money to all, for there is no such waste as when one spends and an- other finds the money,—but to Quebec it means moral degradation as weil. The game was played to a certain extent before, and it was a bad one for all of us, but now that the Jesuit has taken a hand in it can be played no longer. Every true Canadian, Protestant and Roman Catholic, must unite to make it im- ‘possible. I could take no part in the | Equal Rights agitation because I have no faith in che veto power, and the exercise of it—in the case of the bill protested against —would have done incredible harm. Our constitution is essentially a federal one. Federalism means that each province shall be supreme within prescribed limits, and also that within the said limits each shall pay its own way and cheerfully concede to the smallest member of the federation the same justice that it claims for itself. If the men who pressed for their own rights to the extreme point are not willing to ac- cept the corresponding responsibilities, the .ay.tation, no matter by what name it may | be called, must go on and widen its basis by accepting provincial autonomy in the |frankest possible way. Two objections are urged against this policy. It is said that if we give up the veto Canada will be not a nation, but a mere bundle of provinces. i Surely the example of the United States is sufficient to prove that a bundle of pro- vinces or states may be a nation. All that is needed is a more careful definition of the respective regions of the Legislature and and the Parliament, with the judicial committee of the Privy Council, or other Supreme Court to decide where the two disagree, It is also said that by the suggested policy we abandon the cause of the Protestant minority in Quebec. Yes, and the sooner we do it the better for them- selves and the better ajl round. The French Canadian majority can be trusted to do no injustice to the minority, when there are no sham buffers interposed be- tween the two. So can the Protestant ma- jority in the other provinces. it is high time that THE MINORITY IN QUEBEC
should trust, not to constitutional buck- ram, but to a cordial understanding with fellow citizens who are naturally liberal, just and courteous. This platform of prov- incial autonomy is one on which all can find room. It means justice for ali, and a frank recognition that there are different types of sentiment and thought among us, and that it is right to give room for the free development of these. Who that has faith in the fundamental principles of mod- ern society, or who that has studied the history of France can have any doubt of to the result in Quebec? France; both in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, handled the Jesuits with ease. Give Que- bec afree hand, and in due time it will, while remaining Roman Catholic, abolish not only the Jesuits but the tithe, and make all the changes in education that may be required. But interference from with- out wiil simply strengthen reaction. Every province must have a liberty to err, a prov- incial right to do what seems to outsiders wrong. Our present § sys- tem of divided financial responsibility and sham veto is a fruitful source of easily- aroused prejudice and mistrust, and of government by corruption and intrigue. If the coming of the Jesuit has aroused us to
for open-handed liberality, it will not do to!
the conviction that it is necessary to take our stand firmly on federalism, unless we are prepared to go steadily on from bad to worse, we shall owe him thanks after all. His great merit in Canada shall be that which has been assigned him in every other country, viz., that in spite of his ability he never succeeds. The formation of a plat- form that aims at revision of the constitu- tion requires time, whereas our danger is imminent, and IMMEDIATE ACTION IS REQUIRED.
Of course, neither of the existing parties is mad enough to pay twenty or thirty mil- lions additional te one province. Mr. Mer- cier is too astute to expect any such eum in ove lump, but he understands the old saw, ‘** Aim at being pope, and you'll get to be cardinal,” or, more irreverently in Scotch, ‘**Aim at the mune, aud you'll reach the midden,” Party, Sir Richard Cartwright has told us, with his customary commend- able frankness, is war, and as good men will do things in war that would be crimes in peace, what wonder if either party should
ewilling to pay two or three millions rather than see the country ruined by the triumph of the enemy? The payment of such a comparative trifle could easily be covered up under any one of « variety of pretty phrases. But, let us understand that this is a case where the two or three would be just as bad as the twenty or thirty. The disgrace would be the same, and the first payment would be simply the first instalment.
Crops in the United States.
It is reported that the harvest of 1890 has not, upon the whole, been an enconrag- ing one to the farmers of the United States. The winter wheat crop has been a partial failure, consequent upon disastrous spring ffosts following upon an unusually warm winter. In many parts great areas were ploughed up and planted to corn. The vatfields have given the worst record ever published by the department of agri- culture. Inthe south the March frosts destroyed the winter oats, and plant lice swarmed in the west and more or less affec- ted the cropin the Atlantic states, in these states storms also wrought great damage. The average for the whole country is 19.8 bushels per acre. Of pota- toes the crop is good in the south, where it has already been harvested. The same
between church and state and}jis true of the Pacific coast and the Rocky
mountain region. Utah, Wyoming and Colorado will have large surpluses to dis- pose of. Rot is said to be appearing in the east, The average crop is expected to reach 56 bushels per acre ; last year it was 76. The acreage is also less than it has been for many years. Too much rain has destroyed a large portion of the cotton crop upon the bottom lands of the Mississippi valley, the principal effects being shown in Tennessee, Mississippi, Arkansas and Louis- ‘ana. it appears that too much moisture, with lack of sunshine, delays opening, causes immature balls to drop and full grown ones to rot, and induces sprouting of the seed. The same cause discolors the fibre, which discoloration, of course, greatly reduces its value. In other parts drouths affected the crop, and in some states the boll worm caused considerable damage. The average will be less than it has been or quite a few years.

Amidships Propeller.
A trial trip of the of the Dhui Heartach, which has been altered. and adopted to test the advantages to be gained by having the propeller amidships, insread of as by the re- cognized method, viz., at the stern, was recently made from Hartlepool to the New- castle Quay. Although the vessel was quite light, not even ballasted, she behaved admir- ably. It-was manifest that perfect contact with the water, under the ship, was at all times certain for the propellers, so that there was no racing or unequal strain upon the engines. In,fact, whether rolling or pitching, the propellers were never visible, nor was the the surface of the water directly over the propellers ever broken, an! the manifest dis- turbance to those whe were on board was only that of a mere bubling round to the stern of the vesse]. Therefore there was no turbulence in the neighborhood of the rudder, and steering was a mere pastime, the ship answering easily and quiokly to her helm, The vessel is now in the Tyne, being further tried and examined,

News Notes.
During a recent journey, Saroness Alphonse Rothschild was robbed of jewelry worth 60,000 francs.
General Bocth, commander-in-chief of the Salvation Army, speaking of the proposals set forth in his book for the alleviation of the physical distress of the masses before close attention is paid to their moral and spiritual wants, says he requires £1,000,000 te carry out the scheme.
There is a singular conflict going on at this moment between the coroners of Shropshire and South Staffordshire. A farmer was killed by atrain on the Great Western Railway running over him. His body was found the next morning near the scene of the accident, but the head had been completely severed from the trunk and and carried by the engine over into Wolverhampton, Staffordshire. The body and head being in different counties, the coroners are wrangling as to which of them is entitled to hold the inquest.
Dom Pedro during his recent visit to England assured the Queen that he had no intention of seeking his restoration to the throne of Brazil and that the repub- lic which had been established would be a permanent form of Government. It was in consequence of these statements that the British government determined to recog- nize the republic of Brazil and instructions were accordingly issued lately to the British Minister at Rio.
