Such Is the Church of England Demand
for Separate Schools Declared.
WINNIPEG, Man, Special Telegram, Dec.
13.-Upon the authority Of the bishop of
Ruperts Land himself the Free Press as
serts that neither he nor his church is in
any sense party to the application of the
Church of England in its demand to the
courts Tor separate schools made last week,
and that neither of them had or has any
thing whatever to do with its inception or
promotion. The affidavit of the bishop
has no significance as an endorsement OF
the action taken, as tho statements it con-
tains could be obtained unGcr examination
in court if not voluntarily made.
The Free Press says that the application
is fraud upon the courts Of justice and the
people, its real promoters being the Mani
toba government, and its real object being
to prevent the possible final settlement of
the whole school question before the APP
preaching general elections, the govern
ment realizing that in the consequent con-
fusion only would there be the barest chance
of avoiding overwhelming de eat at the
polls. 1t is said the writs :or bye elections
will be issued Tomorrow.

EXPULSION OF JEWS.
a Friendly Kick to the Gar Against His
Harsh Measures.

This government has found occasion to ex-
press, in a friendly spirit but with much earnest
ness to the government of the car it's serious
concern because of the harsh measures now be-
ing offered against the Hebrews i'll Russia. By
the revival of auti-Semitic laws, long i'll abey
auce, great numbers OF those unfortunate people
have been constrained to abandon their homes
and leave the empire by reason OF the impOssl-
bilty Of finding subsistence within the pale to
which it is sought to cOntine them. The imml-
grafton OF these people to the United States
Hany other countries being closed to them
LARGELY increasing, and is likely to assume pro-
portions which may make it difficult to find
homes and employment for them heie and to
seriously affect the labor market. 1t is eSti-
mated that over one million will be forced
from Russia within few years. The
Hebrew is never beggar; he has always kept
the lIW-life by tOi-Otten under severe and OPP
Dressve civil restrictions. 1t is also true that
no race. sect or class has more fully cared for
its own han the Hebrew race. But the sudden
transfer of such a multitude under conditions
