MARTIN. | Six,—The Guardian does not yet see | that Mr. Martin is in sympathy with your | able Northwest correspondent in respect to | the “Scripture readings, prayers, religious | instruction and text books” authorized in the public schools established in Manitaba under the acts of 1890. Well, 1 shall make another quotation which may per- | haps open its eyes to the fact. Mr. Mar tin is reported to have said, in the course of a speech delivered before the Winnipeg Liberal Club on the 20:h of February, 1894: “He was himself not satisfied with the Schcol Act and had never been He had made a strong effort to have the pub Ne schools controlied by the Government really made national schools with religicn obliterated; and he was now more conving ed than ever that was the only school which could be justitied as constitutional. Thev said that the State had no right to interfere with the ditterent denominations, but had the right to interfere in the matter of religion; but he contended that they would not do the one without the other {ct hai been urged Ly satistied supporters vf the Act that none could complain of the devotional element introduced, as it was of tie broadest nature. But they found that the Roman Cat! » ics had the very greatest objections to this provision of the Ac’, and he wae himself diseatisfied wiih it, and was glad many Protestants shared his objections The Roman Catholics had honestly stated that in their belief the two forms of education should go together. The Protestants admitted, on the other hand, that it was impossible to have re ligious training in the schools, and only asked that it be recognizedi— insisting, howerer, on imposing their views on others in that respect. Rather than that small amount of religious training should be done away with in the schools, the Protest ants said they would prefer the oid state of affairs. He would leave it to his audience to determine which wasthe more honest stand of the two.” sO. It thus appears that in the opinion of author of the Manitoba Acts, the practical working of these Actshas proved that th. re has been an imposition under them of Protestant opinions upon Roman Cathol- ics im @ vital point of the Roman Catholic faith. If it were necessary to say anything further, I might quote the opinion of the Rev. Principal Grant after personal invest- igation upon the spot. Osserver. —~_+. LETIER FROMCOUNCILLORE HASZARD.

When quoting the opinio: of the late Mayor Haviland regarding the 100 feet of land belonging to the city, [ did 80 just as it appeared. ‘The words “Donsin- ion Act” may have been an error on the reporte.?; part, or it may have been a slip of the tongue on the speaker's part, or possibly the words may have been used owing to the fact that the Act of 1876 did not become jaw until the Governor- General of Canada had given his assent to it. But it matters no: wha’ name was given to the Act on the spur of the moment. Mr. Haviland claimed that the city owned one hundred feet of Jand, and insisted upon the public having the right to walk on the upland along the shore of Government Farm tothe Park. Ths I am prepared to prove by at least fuur living witnesses, who heard Mr. Haviland’s opinion on the question. If “An Old Parliamentarian” has .convinced himvelf that the words “road around the shore of the Farm” must necessarily meen that the public should walk~ or drive on the sard at low tide, or in the water at high tide, or if he believes that the intention of the Legisla- ture was to compel the citizens to go out 100 feet from the outside of the bank as it existed in 1873 (according to the Act of 1876) to build a breastwork in deep water in order to have a roadway and “to protect the Farm from wasting away,” then all I can say is that he displays an amount of ignorance which ia pitiable, indeed.

Hope may sustain a person when a medicine is being used that doctors say willeventually effect acure. But who wants to continue an agonizing course of treatment when a medicine like South American Kidney Cure is with n the reach of everyone and that if so speedy as wel as certain in its effects?

There was a fire sale of a grocery stock, including a lot of ciunned peaches, peas, corn, tomatoes, ete., which had the labels washed off during the fire. These were sold at four cents per can. It was « clear case of going it blind, with a fair field and no favor. The woman bought freely of the batch, but when she came to us? them there was trouble. If she wanted peaches she was sure to open peas; when she went on a still hunt for peas she would raise corn; no matter what she wanted she would get something else.
