Provinces as they bave been in Manitoba, It is true, also, that the privileges enjoyed in the schools are not accorded uader the law, but are the result of mutual! agree- meat or tacit’understanding. [tis true, tco, that the Dominion Commissioners requir ed that the privileges thus obteined in the schools of the Maritime Provinces should of the Legislature of Manitoba. The necessity for the stipulation is evident. Tie minority in Manitoba had suffered a wrong resulting from a breach of faith ; they had to go to Jaw, to fight for their right*.

OPINION IN MANITOBA.

Sir Charles Tupper ought to be a fairly good judge of public feeling and sentiment. After having spent some time in Winnipeg and conversed with many people, he was

But it is to be remembered that

enabled to say to a newspaper correspond- ent :-—

“T found that public sentiment had un- dergone a great change from what it was represented to be some time ago. A large majority of the people seem to recognize the constitutional aspect of the case and are prepared to endorse the course taken by the government rather than that taken by Mr. Laurier. I had been led to believe they were violently and unalterably opposed to the government and would vote for Lau- rier regardless of other issues at stake, but I found them if quite a different mood. They understand al! that is involved in the election, and are disposed to view the school matter in a judicial spirit. Full and frank statements in the case, such as Mr. McDonald and I were able to make, have brought about a much better feeling, and I can see no reason for doubting that @ most decisive verdict in our favoi will be given by all western constituencies.

The Patriot new:piper is also opposed

to the branch lines. It was always op

In the year 1871, when the Railway Bill was introduced and car- ried, it opposed the measure with all its strength and vigor, so much so that whin the late James Duncan sought re-election at a bye-electioh he was defeated by the Hon. David Laird, who was then the editor of the Patriot,

Biil was before the Honse, opposed and voted against it, declaring, to use his own words; that it was not needed for “one hundred years to come.” Thus the records of Mr. Welsh, Mr. Laird and Mr. Davies shows that these politicians were against the building of railways; and we hare now, as before, the Patriot newspaper with which Mr. L. H. Davies is closely con- nected, opposing the branches, charging that they are bribes to the electors,—- and in many ways the Patriot and Mr. Davies throw cold water on the enterprise.

The indications strongly point to the re- turn of the Government. ir Oliver Mow- at, the grit premier of Oatario, a gentle- man who well knows the political feeling ia Ontario, has politely declined to resign his position and come to Mr. Laurier’s rescue. If he was at all sanguine of the result, there ia no doubt but that he would have jumped at Mr. Laurier’s offer. The fact that ke has not done so, and w Il not do so, speaks volumes, as he is known to be one of the Of the times. On'the other hand, Premier Tail'on, of Quebec, readily accepted Sir Charles Tupper’s invitation to join his cabinet. This is a clear indication that he felt that he was running no risk in resigning the The peo

CAMPAIGN NOTES,

—Advices from Three Rivers, Quebec, say that the Government will make a clean sweep there, capturing Nicolet and Maskinonge from) Mr. Laurier.

—The policy under which the common people of this country were enabled to increase (heir saving banks deposits from $8,497,013 in 1978 to $45,446,761 in 1896 cannot be a very bad policy or one to be discarded, “just for the sake of a change.”

~—Moncton Times: According to Brad- streets report, trade in Canada is “betog restricted because of the uncertainty caus- ed by the approaching elections. If the contes: results in a Laurier victory and the

installation of Sir Richard Cartwright as finance minister and tart! maker, it will be dul‘er. The experience of the United

States after its free trade tariff doctors had done their work justifies this prediction.

—It is understood, says the Montrea) Gazette, that Hon. W. B. Ives, Minister of Trade and Commerce, will devote most of hie time daring the campaign to the differ- ent sections of the Eastern Townships, al- though the Minister of Trade and Com merce will pay weekly visits to Montreal. He has predicted that the Conservatives will carry eight out of the nive seats in the Township, and intends to make good his prophecy.

Hon. Mr. Taillon at Sierbrooke hit off Sir Oliver Mowat's attitude towarde Mr, Laurier very ptuily, Sir Oliver, the Postmaster General said, was willi g to come in at the end and share the spo.! of the fight, ifthereis any. There are, it

may be added, twenty-six other Provincial ministers willing tohelp Mr. Laurier on the same terms. Beside Sir Oliver, there are twenty-six ministers in Provincial Liberal Cabinets in Canada.

—There waea great gathering of west ern Ontario Conservatives in Hainilton, Ont., on Saturday, 27 of the 30 constituen cies being represented by the party candi- dates and prominent workers. They held aconferenceon tie campaign work at the Conservative Club, where they were met by Dr. Montague, Lieut.- Col. Tiedale and Mr. Robert Birmingham, the Conservative organizer. Dr. Montague, in a speech, said that under the premiership of Sir Charles Tupper the Conservative party were going to sweep the country from end to end. Mr. Birmingham cla med the party rould gain seven seats in the Hamiltcn district.

cated by reason of some of the heirs being infants, frome resident out of the jurisdic t.o1 of the Court; and because the hue binds cfsomeof the beirs have jugdg- men’s recorded against them,thus creatiag a lien upon the heirs shares.

Inasmuch as the complainant is a mar- ried woman, the Master of the Rolls di- rected a memorandum to be filed, signed by her, directing her solicitor to instruct counsel to pray fura sale. This was done. Court ordered asale, free from incum- brances, but the money to be paid into Court.
