Time and again | e-t2, T.me and azain in other provinces i have been accused of entering intoa league with the Roman Catholic hierarehy for the purpose of subverting the constitu- tional rights of a province of this Domin- ion; and when our time came to speak in parliament last session we stated the whole House should censure us, and they hive never io this day been able to tell the rea- son why. MR. TARTE ANSWERED. True, there wrs a suspicion in the great mind ot Mr. Tarte that T had. entered into a league with His Grace the Archbishop of St. Boniface, that I had promised His Grace that if a decision of the judicial committee of the privy cougcil went manage in some way to subvert that deci- our own parliament. I denied that on the Mr. Tarte. (Laughter.) Mr. Tarte went | and before many weeks were over hehad not | only my solemn denial made on the floor of } erable archbishop himself, declaring that, however untrue it might be, however much I might regard it as a calumny, as regards himself it was a disgraceful calumny of the grossest kind. I believe that the peo- ple of the Dominion of Canada to-day, apart from my own denial, wil] accept the wore of that venerable and saintly man in preference to that of ten thousand Tartes. So much for the story that I had an in- trigue by which the decision of the judi- cial committee was to be subverted and put aside. Butthen the people of Ontario have been told by another great public the privy council. I will tell you, ladies THE FACTS OF THE CASE small compass. The Province of Manitoba has two statutes by which separate school The Roman Catholic minority took this They said: While it is true that make its own laws in regard to education, schools which existed before the province | was created, and, therefore, those statutes We said to them that cided by the courts, because it was a question of the law, and it must eventually Was sent to the courts—it was taken to the courts, I am willing to admit aud hawe admitted on the floor of parliament. At that time it | vras taken to the courts by the government tor the purpose of having that decision settled definitely by a judicial tribunal. At that time there was no statute by which that question could be tried by any courfito which we could send it, and, therefore, we had to say to his grace and the gentlemen | who were supporting him in his trouble that it was necessary that one of them should come forward and institute the suit in his ewn name so as to have the question decided, and we paid the expenses of the litigation. THE DECISION WAS AGAINST THE MINORITY in Manitoba. The decision was that those two statutes did not take away any rights from the minority which existed at the time that province was created. So much for that decision. It is final, and no man in the governmeut or out of it van, or should, attempt to aseail it or subvert it by any means, even if such means were in his power. But the minority supporting his grace said: Now that these acts have been declared by the highest legal authorities to be valid and constitutional, we appeal to tLe governor-in-council to give us remedial. legislation, to give ws re lress aga‘nst such parts of thore acts as deprive us of the right to educate our own children and t6 tax ourselves for the support of educational institutions for our children. Under a clause of the constitution which says with respect to educational enactments taking away the right of the minority, a right which the minority got after the union, while the act would be constitutional and valid, the minority would have the rijht to go to the governor-in-conneil for relief. What was the position under these cireum- stances? The province of Manitoba is ere ated under the statute in which that appeal is not expressly given.

McKENNA, Mermaid Farm, Lot 48. septl8—dy law & wky grace on behalf of the minority said: Al- though it isnot expressly given by that act, we a3 @ province, as part of the population in a province of a confederation,are entit!- ed to the benefit of that relief under the British North America Act. The provin- cial government denied that position and said that with respect to that subject the British North America Act did not apply. There were various minor features which I need not trouble you with. THESE ARE THE LEADING POINTS: We said to his grace: Under these cirenm- stances it is asldfficult and doubtful ques- tion of law, ar we must again ask the courts to decid». the new question which has been raised by that appeal. If we had been disposed, and had undertaken to pass remedial orders in ‘compliane> Witt’ his grace’s appre: and it tured out that his no right to insert such an appeal, they would have been absolutely worthless, Then we would have been hounded out of office for Laving undertaken to interfere, without the authority of the law, with the rights of a province, for the purpose of cultivating the vote of the religinus minor- ity in that province. His grace and thore for whom he acted, were wise enough to see that, under those circumstances, the only safe to proceed was to get an author- itative decision on the question, whether an appeal, under those circumstancee, would lie against those two statutes. And that is the question which is aow before the courts. While it is before the courts I do not, and cannot, blame an¥Y man for declining, as did the leader of ‘the opposi- tion in convention the other day, to ex- press an opinien as to what he would do if the decision4s pronounced, what rights it will establish or deny with regard to the minority and what rights or powers it will establish or negative with regard to the governor-in-council or the federal author- ities, BUT I DO BLAME MR. LAURIER for this, that for the purpose of appealing to passions in this country, for the pur- pose of making it appear to one class of the people that he is in favor of interfei- ing In Lehalf of the minority, and of mak- ing it appear to another class that he was never going to interfere for the minority— that he, under the circumstances, sup- — the vote of censure in the Honee of ommons and declared that we bad been guided by arrant cowardice, and he used ame him for declining to commit him- ‘critic, and dec | the objectionable acts were pacsed; and in EXAMINER * - . ; the word with as much repetition as chil- dren do at play when they get angry with one another. But although it was cow- ardice, he said, fur us not to express an opinion wntil the decision was given, he ‘had no opinion to express Limself, except one which was absolutely worthless a3. an opinion @o thequestien at all. I do not self, butthawing undertaken the role of fared that we should be censured, he was bound by duty to his party and tothe public to declare what vis policy was and why it was we were table to censure. Instead of doing this, when he Came to face the question in con- vention, he refused to say anything about ton the platform on the plea that the ase was before the courts. The only Op i.ion he would express about it was that the Geverimant were cowards—cowards ill the time. HiS LIPS WERE NOT SEALED. It is a remarkable cireumstance that on the day of that convention, when he thus «poke and. was eager to run for shelter to ihe litigation, the litigation had not begun (he case had not been sent to the courts, snd, therefore, his lips were net sealed and he might have told the convention all his heart about it. He restrained himself, however, On the ground that the govern- ment had decided to send the case to the courts. Well, so they had when the session was on, and yet he supported a vote of | censure upon us for not having then said or dene something which he did not do himself and did not propose todo. Now, the only utterance which the leader of the Oppesition has given as to what his policy would be upon this question is simply this, Hesays that it has been alleged by his grace the archbishop and the Catholic minority that the public schools are really Protestant schools, and if so he says—and and of course everyoue agrees with the sentiment—that it weuld be an outrage that Catholic children’ should be obliged to attend them and that Catholic parents should be taxed for their support. He promised to enquire into that and give re- dress, Well, in the first place, he would require to know whether he had the power to give redress or not, and if he put his fingers on any schdol, Protestant or Catho- lic, as amember of the federal government, and then found he had not the power to do 80, he would not only be ordered by the courts of the country to take his fingers off, but he wonld find that he had meddled to the great disadvantage of the educational ittterests of the provinee, as well as of its legislative rights. In the first place, no matter how great an outrage may be alleg- ed to exist with regard to education in that or any other province, before the federal government should be asked to interfere, it Should be made pretty clear by the higl- est authority that they. have the power and the consequent duty to interfere. WE, THEREFORE, MEET MR. LAURIER by saying, even if these were such schools as you describe, you would: have no right to touch them without having the power and the consequent duty to interfere laid down’ By the highest authority in the coun- try. But Mr. Laurier’s statement that he would interfere if he found these to be Protestanteschools is a proposition open at both ends ‘and which anyone can see through. What is a Protestant school makes all the difference in the world ac- cording to the light of hin who looks at it. His. Grace is of the opinion that ~t} are necessarily Protestant schools, although public schools, because they simply go forward in continuation of the Prit-stant separate school sys en, which was in vogue in the province before the mind of another who would enquire as to whether Protestant instruction was given in these schools or not, the greatest ditterenve might prevail. It is a difference which theologians would’ struggle pretty hard over,and which politicians never would settle till the end of time. (Laugh- ter). So, no one need be deluded by Mr. Laurier pointing them to a Will o’ the Wisp like that. Itis not a qnestion what the schools are to do. We have no power to interfere in a province from time to time, as the schools become oppressive, are con- ducted on unjust principles, and interfere with ‘the religious prificiples of parents and children. We have no péwer to inter- fere, from time to time, to regulate matters of that kind. Once for all we have to de- cide, if the public function is imposed upon us by the courts, not what the schools are, but_what the citizens of the provinee make them; and, therefore, if the statutes of Manitoba do not. make the schools of that province Protestant schools and do not justify the schools of that province being made Protestant schools, the federal government would have no power to interfere if any contravention of the law there was made to the oppression of the minority. THE REMEDY IS WITHIN THE PROVINCE itself, before the tribunals of the country. for a grievance like that. The utmost that can be or is said in the appeal that is made to day is that the two statutes ol- jected to are oppressive to the minority in the establishnient.of schools of that char- acter. The Jaw has justified their e-tal- lishment to the injury of the minority,and, therefore, remedy ought to be given, not againsi the schools as they exist now, _or may exist six months or a year hence, but against the schools as they are constituted or may be constituted by yirtue of thio-e two statutes, and those two statutes alone With regard to what has been said in the other province about this being simply an attempt to get round the decision of the nen committee of the Privy Couneil y bad fa’th, that is altogether an~ injur- ious and erronious statement. The redress which may be claimed by his grace and the minority is a redress which may be far short of the nullification of the Mani- toba statgtes, and he who assumes that the courts are going to decide that | we can and intend to nullify those acts, acts upon an assumption i le . * . | | Spaciat Desraicues ro Tue Exawixer | The Supreme Court.

Not that China probably cares anything about the siadowy claim to suzerainty over the Si- amese, but French control in Siam would stren:then France for further encroach- m nt upon the southern frontiers« f Ch'na. The c’aim to suzerainty affords an excuse f r resisting the claims of France in Indo- C ini; although China’s real interest in the matter is obviously to prevent the French from establishing themeelves too firmly on the Chinese boundary. * { {A war with China would be a serious undertaking for France, however certa n the latter nation might be of victory in the end. The Chinese could bring into the field an unlimited number of troops, and as these wonld doubtless be directed by skilled European offivers, the French could only sustain themselves by great military effort at an expense that France is ill able to afford. If China really medi- tates hostilities, President Carnot has be- fore him the most difficult foreign problem of his administration. DIED.

We have asked the courts to decide whether the condition tht existed in’ Manitoba constitutes a right against the taking away of which the min- ority have a right to insert this appeal.
