It has been insinuated that he does not represen: the of this Pro- vince. We tha!l not hera'd his promotion upon any such assumption. Mr. Warbur- ton and his s*sociates in the Government, whoever they may be, are entitled to @ fair trial. They wil! not, we feel judged,—at least by the reasonable mem- bers of the Liberal Party.

As the mean population of the colony at the close of 1896 was ],287,755, it will be seen that over one-rixth wax atiending schoo). The amuunt expended by the Stste during the last five years on schoo) sites, buildings fnrniture, rent®, repairs, and rates was £2,524,800, the school buildings generally being of & commodious and enbstantial character. The amouat of school fees collected during the yeur was nearly £75,000. The sumber of teachers of al! classes wae 4445, of whom nearly 1000 were pupil teachers, the number of prin- cipal teachers being 2246. The subjects taught in the public sch ols include reaiing, writing, dictation, arithmethic, grammar, history (English and Austra- lian), Scripture and moral lessons, object lessons, drawing, music, French, Euclid, algebra, measuration, Latin, trigonometry, drill, natural science, ani needlework. Examioations are held periodically for State scholarships and bursaries, the former fur the superior and high schools the latter for superior, high, and grammar echoxls aud the University. These are eagerly competed for, not = few of the candidates extibiting qualifications of a high order. There are technical classes for instructionin drawing, manual train- ing, cookery and needlework. The man- ual training is imparted in eight work- thops in connection with 23 schools. There are two training scho»ls, ove for male.the other for iemale teachers, in which instruction is given io the privciple aud practice of teaching and class man- agement, aod in manual training. [o- struction is also given in elementary anatomy, physiology, and hygiene. The echools are under the supervision of an in- by tie past, the people have nothing to; gain avd much to lose by Mr. McLesn’s | continuance in office. It cannot reasonably be expected that Mr. Mciean will do better under Mr. Warburton than under Mr. Peters. Mr. Warburton will ake a good step towards winning the confidence of the country—s matter of the first importance to a Governoment—if he should surround himself by prudent and able men of high character. The responsibility lies with him at this moment. It is pleasing to learn from reliable sourees that he has been given @ free hand in this matter. - HOW ABOUT THE SUBSIDY? Tae chief ground upon which the Liberaie went to the country at the las election was that of an increase of subsidy on account'of the claims of this Province upon the Dominion Government. It was represented that these claims would be submitted to arbitration, and that with Liberal Governments at Oitawa and Char- lottetown sufficient additional subsidy would be obtained to lessen or wipe out the taxation now imposed. This representa- tion was very potent in winning votes. We ought to be iaformed at this juncture whether or notany step has yet been taken towards the promised arbitration aod what prospect there is that the new Preusier will carry out the undertaking of his prececessor in this regard ? If auything has already been done, the people may be induced te accept the fact as evidence that #omething more will be done.} _— NOT IMPROBABLE. Tse Montreal Gazette intimates that Sir Henry Strong intends to retire from the Chief Justiceship of Canada and remove to England, where he will represent Canada upon the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. In that event there will bea vacancy at Ottawa which Sir Louis Davies may fill. Sir Oliver Mowat is to be Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario. Mr. Mills, Minister of Justice. What more likely thaa that Sir Louis should be Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada? Strength is added to this idea by the infor- spectorial stef, comprising @ chief inspect or, deputy chief inspector, 9 district in- apectors,und 24 inspectors. There are 639 savings banks in connection with the schools, the amount deposited during the year being nearly £11,500; the total a- mount deposited since the establishment of the banks in 1887 being £111,542, and the withdrawale £104,877. Of the latter eum, £30,298 was withdrawn for the pur- pose of being placed to the credit of cbild- reo’s own accounts in the Government savings bank. The teachers have a mu- tual assurance associs tion, in which, during the last ten years, the average death rate has been @ fraction over one per cent. There ie no legacy duty payable, nor have nominees of deceased members to wait for the will to be proved, payment being made en proof of death. he educational! system of New Sonth Wales, as a whole, combines economy and efficiency in a mostreroarkable degree, and furnishes numerous features deserving of study and emulation.
