THE SCHOOLS REPORT. . 1 » _ - The 'voluminous report on the pub- lic schools of the Province is largdy statistical as usual. ' and indicate; otherwlm that matters are goin; on much as they have been during the years last past with some features of improvement. The otal expenditure for education last y r_was $170,327, a fairly cred- itable a ount for a small Province. The feature that is not creditable in this connection is that $128,898 was contributed -by the Government and only 946,429 by the school districts. Still the district contributions were larger than ever before, which is a _of education can never be built up on_ the present basis. There is far too much looking to the Government and matter of education. ' good thing and school consolldnni-in is yet in the experimental st.-ige. It has been successlul at Hillsboro, with the munificent support of Bir_ William Macdonald. Hereafter it re-, remains to be seen what the six Sir William Macdonald to do every-N thing and pay for everything in the No ~doubt manual training is a, is a good thing but consolidationl wick and shortly to be Premier of Wat Province,waa born in Oromocto. llnbury County in 1860. He had his collegiate education at the University of New Brunswick, afterwgrds stud- ied law and was called to the bar in 1883. In early life he lived and prac- tised his profession in Fredericton, where he became first an Alderman and afterwards Mayor of that city. ln 1890 he removed to St. John, and in the following year was elect- ed to the House of Commons for tha City and County as a Conservative, He served with credit, but was de- feated at the general election of 1896 by 191 .votes. He then devoted himself to his profession till 1899 when he was elected to the Legisla- ture for his niative County of Sun- bury which he has since represented. Mr. Hazen is personally n man of distinguished appearance, above the average height, and looks a strong man. He is nn Episcopalian in creed. He possesses more than ordinary nbi- lity as a speaker and is capable of oratory. His manner in speaking is calm, dignified, courteous and persua- sive, seldom if ever, becoming de- clamatory. His personal and politi- cal record is clean. Among the nine Premiers of Provinces he will stand easily ln the first division. districts will_do. As for pupils enroled throughout( the Province the number is the smallest in thirty years past. The percentage of attendance is twoi points below that of the previous' year. There are 25 vacant schools-, much the largest number with a, single exception in, ten years past. 5 The school system calls for radical changes, obviously in the method of support, the training of teachers, the uniting and redistribution of school districts, the increase of teachers' pay and the institution of. a pension, or superannuation plan. .l A (‘/LEAN ELECTION. It is gratifying to learn from relin- ble sources that the eiiorts to carry on an honest and clean election were fairly successful in the recent elec- tion in New Brunswick. It is usual- ly the defeated party that complains when the struggle is over. In this McKinnon of the St John Star, who `s personally and favorably known to many in this Province, and who fought a stout battle for the defeated Government. The Star says: _ "The election throughout the Pro- vince~ was creditable. to New_ .Bruns- wick. It is reasonable to suppose that the Moral Reform movement has irection. rl. HAZEN.

'At that time it had the active co-operation and support of the provincial Govern- ment of Nova §cotia, New Bruns- wick, Prince Eduinrd lslnnd, Quebec, Ontario and Manitoba, nn unbroken Mountains. It afterwards gained the chain from the Attnntic to the Rocky Government of British Columbia, and federal and local Liberal parties were in the asccndnnt from ocean to ocean in 1900. Manitoba became Conservative in 1900, British columiim in 1903; on- tuyio fell away to the Conservatives in 1905; Manitoba in 1907 and now New Brunswick in 1908.
