THE WINNIPEG DAILY TRIBUNE, MONDAY, APRIL 1, 1S03. 5 TWO SIDES OF TOE QUESIIOS Continued from Page he effect of attracting a crowded iudlence to the Immaculate Conception yeter.lay mornli. The teat vrs "Fenr Uod, honor the KIiir." ntr nmklnfr to Mr.Turk rnion, mid prumlHli that In his JriticlHin he would not forget to do to him an fliriHt. liad commanded, -Do unto others at you would they Uiould do unto you," he went on to show how this precept was put Into nructiee by "our depurated brethren i the Methodist church la Vlnnler. i gaT Winnipeg because the whole of the ilethodlirt church In Canada does not appear to be In the name mind 00 the question." He then referred to a resolution passed by.

Kt. Jam church In Montreal on the lilird favoring separate school. In support 01 thin contention. Referring to the resolution passed by the Ministerial aKHOCliitlon here, he complained ol.the wording "Ey the school act of 18.H) no lnjsutice in done to any citizen," and Mr. Turk "the grievance In only a technical one." Aftor quoting the British North America act relatlnff to the matter, and referring to the Catholic of Manitoba as law-abiding cltlien, lie declared hl8 regret that a minister of the gospel should so far forget Ms own teaching aa to say no lnJimtUe was done to any citizen whin the supreme tribunal of the empire had declared differently.

After detailing the position of Catholic nnd Protestants prior and subsequent to the act of 18J0, he challenged any one to honestly entertain the idea that the school act of did no Injus- I tlce to any citizen, uaiton Mcrartny I bud admitted that the Catholics had I a grievance, and the speaker would, I I that the local preacher of the goxpel I I had the same manliness which wa I I nmnlfeHted by such word, lie was I I afraid that the tense of duty did I I not go far with some of them not- I I withstanding their protest of "fear I I (iod and honor the king." In Mr. I I Turk's "spirit of Justice," he had I I compared the Catholics to the Men- I I nonltes who, he said, In equity had I the same rights to separate schools. I This was refuted by re- I (erring the audience to the I laurels gained by the stu- I dents of the St. Boniface college I year after year at the Manitoba unl- I verxlty examinations. Moreover the I eloquent speaker went on to show I that "the standard of Catholic edu- I cation was not limited to Manitoba I hut extended ot Quebec and In gen- I eral to nil Catholic countries." A book I by the I'nulist Fathers, entitled "Ca- I tholic and Protestant countries coin- I pared" was recommended ns worthy I ol perusal on the subject.

The speaker I complnlued that while so much was I said about the illiteracy of Hpalnnnd I Italy, but little was said of the fine I arts in those countries. Ho denied I that the Catholic religious education I interfered in any way with the other I branches of instruction. Mr. Turk I might not agree with this and ns a I I'rotestaut be sntlslied with schools I which were not Godless nor dlstlnct- I lvely Catholic. The speaker also ob- I Jected to Godless schools and also to I schools where no distinctive teaching I was admitted.

In other words he I could not agree with Mr. Turk upon I any system of religious training that I was not their own than he could I agree to exchange pulpits with him. I In reply to the statement that many I Itomun CnWioiic dignltnrles were np- I posed to Catholic schools he quoted I largely from the third council decrees I on the question, showing that these I favored Catholic forms of eilu- I cation in schools and dec- I taring that they were In perfect I harmony with the teachings of the I Tope. Speaking of the conscience I which Mr. Turk referred to ns "holy I ground," he pointed out that the I Catholic could not conscientiously I send his children to a national school.

I It a Protestant should not be as- I sensed for the support of a Catholic I school, neither should the opposite be I the cone. He quoted from the re-' I ports of 180 and 1887 that the cost I under the Catholic system was con- I slderably smaller than under that of I the lYotestnnta. He said that the I l'rotestants could not cope with the I Catholics in the matter of salaries; I their teachers and professors were I prepared to work for very little more I thun enough to supply food and rnl- I nient, while It was absolutely linpos- I slble to expect anything of the kind I from laymen, ninny of whom were I married. In conclusion, he referred I to the loynlty of the Catholic and I argued that the majority and the I minority be permitted to enjoy the I fcyrtem of schools which existed prior I to 181)0 in this their common province I of Manitoba. I UEV, MR.

TEDEY AND THE I SCHOOL QUESTION. I To the Editor of The Tribune. I 8lr-In the Nor'-wester of this city I there appeared on Tuesday lust a I short parngrnph reporting nn Inter- I view with myself. As to the details I the report might bear amending, but I ns to the general tenor It is quite I correct. I did think it necessary to I make enquiry before expressing my- I sell publicly on what is probably the I gravest issue that the Canadian peo- I pie have been called upon to face since I confederation.

While Manitoba In I some respects Is yet on the outskirts I of our life os a Dominion, at the pre- I sent moment it is politically the ren I tre, the storm centre of the whole I land. There Is no pnrty thnt does I not feel that Its future Is connected I tremendously sympathetic cords I with the present issue. There Is not I constituency In Canada that In the I ext election will be free from its In- I nuence. Even the tariff question, ap- I pealing so powerfully as It docs to I the material interests of the people, I retires Into comparative dimness. I then, It Is the business of I -ry man who desires the wolfare J''ul country to use every means to I worm himself on so momentous nn I uo, and It Is his duty to refrain I peaklng until he can speak In- I J'UlKciitly.

i do not Intend by this I make any reflection on my bre- I Jiiren who hare already spoken.Ilav- I UP they bad as I "peak their opinions I Journalist to write this. Tor I my own pnrt, however, I feel the need I time for consideration. I ii re 0re a of questions I some of which have Inwh I 'thers remnln- i answered by ourselves; of i kU examples: I th. the f'tthts and privileges of I -'holle minority Isn I A.r l'J. tvrfut legislation? r-' ln Xhf by the I (vTnneii ClHl0U tlie VrU I lhp" rlirhts nnd privileges Jen Illegally nffncte.l? Answered In I ill by the first decision of I nl "n.iMrlal i rlry Council.

Ws I1 n'1 Privileges to ected? This seems I ths w.rrcd tl" ft'nrmatlr by -Pinion Af.tKftA Owlelon. but only an I i the "nlnlon government, I Is subject ultimately to l.s either endorsed or comlemiied by the Dominion parliament in both houses. None the less, though. Is It the question that we have to face. There are time phases In which this presents itself, and these are: (a) Is our present school Inherently and per se unjust Hi) Even If this be decided in the negative, does It become unjust because of explicit promises and guarantees given in the past? iv) rtuppofing again this he decided in the negative, the question still remains whether the fact that for nineteen years the minority had certain privileges accorded them by statute constitutes these privileges a vested right, the taking away of which was an Injustice? These are.

as I fnld. phases of the great question, and this question we muNt settle for ourselves, every man seeking the best light he can obtain. It seems absolutely certain that, the remedial order will not le obeyed. In thnt ciue the matter is bound to come before, not this government nor that, not Mr. Howell or Mr.

Laurler, but the whole Canudlau people as represented at Ottawa. That Manitoba may appear there with dignity she must le armed with Justice. My own convictions I htqie to express nt the proper time and In the manner that seems to me most suitable. My feeling at present Is not ln the direction of preaching a sermon, but of spenklng on aome week-night from my own or some other platform. This may have the disadvantage of reducing the number ot hearers, but there will be at least a corresponding gain In the freedom of utterance for tho speaker, and of expression for the audience.

HE RODE THE POLE. A whiskey Informer returned from DuFrost district a few days roniplnliilng that he had Is-en treated Isidly out there. The young men ot the neighborhood got wind ot the nature ol his occupation, and when lie told them be was a sheep buyer, they said they knew a Pole who took nn interest In lamb raising. He wanted to see the Pole, so they went to fetch him. When they returned he grew nlnrmed, ns the pole was of wood, nnd he hnd misunderstood them.

He became more alarmed, ton, when they tied his feet together and gave him a long ride on it through the village, lie swore and cursed In German and French and other languages which the Inhabitants (lid not understand, although they enjoyed Just as niurli. When the young men were tired they fixed the pole Is-tsreen the gate posts leading to the Catholic church and threw snowballs and other material nt the Informer tititil they were tired. Than, when nobody was looking some good Samaritan cut the ro binding his legs and he slipped off the pole and ran oft quicker than Woods or Don-ran could bave gone, glad to get out of the MILge he bad cursed.

Ilcfora the Court. In the county court this morning, before Judge Walker and a Jury, an action brought by Mrs. Lyons against the Winnipeg Street Railway company came up lor trial. The plaintiff and her huxhntid reside In the parish of St. Vital, and In December Inst were on their way (to Winning.

Wishing to make i purchase nt Bank's drug store, Just south of the Main street bridge, they drew their sleigh up close to the sidewalk and Mr. Lyons went Into the store, leaving bis wife to look after their horses. While standing there, two teams driven by Memioiiltea, became frightened by an electric car passing over the bridge; one of them passed the plain-tiff's sleigh safely, but the other collided with It with such force us to throw Mrs, Lyons ont on the rond. her head striking the ground. When picked up by her husband and Mr.

itnnks, she was nearly InsetiHlble.nni! Dr. lllgglnson was railed. He found the, lady suffering from a slight concussion ot the brain and bad her removed to the hospital, where she remained about live weeks. Mrs. Lyons claimed that the company were liable for the Injuries she sustained and brought the action to recover damages.

Ul HIKE t'UlhK. The Kward of a Vanfal Ailhrr'ncr In Tiln-rlplo Itownnirnt slid ri.lltlral Profit. It Is almost certain that Wilfrid IjiurliT will los heavily In Quebec If be stands by the Lils-ral principle of provincial rights. The vote that proves him to be a brave polltlrlan will not aid bis party to win a seat In Ontario with the help of those, who ippose the Liberal leader le-eauset be- Is French In origin and Catholic religion. The opposition will find Its only reward In the virtue of mniiful adherence to principle.

There Is no hos of Immediate political profit In the policy of right-doing In the Manitoba school question. The Dominion government has cr n-sldered nothing hut political prollt. It (ins abandoned the principle ot prolvnrlal rights, which was the shelter from the storm roused by the nllnwnnre of the Jesuits Estates act. Will the opposition, through Laurler, also abandon thnt principle, or will it stand up manfully and declare that nil the provincial rlithta vetted In big Quebec ran lie eierrlsed by little Manitoba Adherence to vrlnclple apparently Involves loss to the I.UmtmI party In Quebec, without compensating gains In the other provinces of the Dominion.

"What Is our devotion to the Blessed Virgin? What honor Is due to the Snlnts "Has the priest the power of tor-giving sins The above nre sample questions set to candidates for teachers' certificates In tho North wet.

And the (toman Catholic church Is desirous of securing a portion ot the public funds tit this province for teaching the answers to such questions, and lurther, the ministers of other denominations, with a few exceptions, are ns dumh'ns oysters on the school question. They know, or should know, thnt the Dominion government. In granting a remedial order, Is neither violating nor obeying the law. It Is granting so-called relief, which the Judgment of the Privy Council permits It to grnnt. instend ol reiuslng the rill which thesnmo.

Judgment permits It to refuse. Many of our ministers agree that separate schools are not In the Interests ol the state, but h. cause they have been long established thry should remain, ln some form at least. Do they np-plv the same ruin to other alleged evils ANTI SEPARATE S( HOOLS. Til AT THAT.

I would say thnt that "that" that that writer spoke of Is not the "thnt" that that writer means, J. II, LOW SIDEWALK. The lowest nnd most useless sidewalk In the city Is now between the Manitoba college and the court house or Jail on Vaughan street. The civic authorities should see this street on a wet day. Mill AND THAW.

DANGEROUS SILENCE "Ye shall keep my Sabbaths nnd reverence my sanctuary" Is a divine Injunction. The same divine speaker said "It Is lawful to do good on Sabbath day," nnd Solomon snys, "Train up a child In the way he should go, and when he Is old he Hill not depart from It." But when politicians begin tampering with the education of our children, many ministers of the Gospel seem to think that their duty Is to step to one side. Imagine a more sacred duty than the training nnd rdiirntlon of the youth of our land. Yet, according to severnl of our ministers, the educational question Is not lor the pulpit.
