SAN FRANCISCO, March 2S.-The

contain no reference to the demand
made by Secretary Gresham for the re-
call of Minister Thurston, and it is evil
dent that no knowledge of this diplo-
matte incident has reached the Ha-

simply matter of conjecture.

NOT A MILD ANSWER.

Organ of the Manitoba Government Re-
plies to Ottawa Officials.
WINNIPEG, March 30.-The remedial
order on separate schools does not come
up in the legislature for several days,
but it is nevertheless the one topic of
the day here. Both the government
and opposition are holding frequent
caucuses, and what the outcome will be
is difficult to predict. One thing is GER
tain-the Manitoba government will re-
sent the interference by Ottawa on ed
ucational matters. There is every indi-
cation that the policy Of the opposition
in the legislature will be to advocate
some notifications in the school law.
In other words, some sort of compro-
mise The opposition of Premier
Greenway and the government is
clearly outlined. The newspaper organ
of the government has this official
statement under the heading:
"NIanitoba's Answer"
"The remedial order has been read i'll
the legislature. We are asked to re-
store tho school system that was i'll op'
Grafton previous to 1890. Let Quebec
and Ottawa rest assured that the
restoration will never be made. Mani
toba has too keen sense of justice, toe
much regard for truth and equity te
recognize as a religious aristocracy ar
element of its population by no means
the most worthy. AS a civilized people
attempting to realize i'll measure the
ideals of the 18th century, Manitobans
will not silently submit to the prepos-
ferrous demand that they should turn
back the wheels Of progress 800 years.
Mediavalism cannot or will not coalesce
with modern thought. In place OF the
act of 1890 what substitute is offered
We are asked
To Set Greed Against Creed,
and race against race; to break up the
unity that should exist; to mutually
support each other i'll wrong doing; tc
make the state the teacher of religious
truth. How can amy Romanist, believ
ing TINT Protestant schools are teaching
errors, conscientionsly support them
and how can any Protestant, believing
that the religious teachings Of the Ro
man Catholic church are false, agre
that portion of his taxes should be de
voted towards the support of sucl
teachings? This is our answer to Que
bee: We shall not allow the state t
support religion; we shall not allow tn
church to control the state; we shal
not return to the civilization of tn
dark ;,xes; we shall not recognize Rom
as better or i'll any way different fror
others. We shall hold to the principle
CT equal rights for all. ali. that princi
pie shall be dearer to Us than confedel
alton itself.

ERNMENT'S ACTION.

Provinces Jealcas of Their Rights and Any
Vigorous Protest-Manitoba Legislature
Adjourns.
OTTAWA, Ont, April l.-Although
full particulars of the action taken by
the Dominion government regarding
the Manitoba school question have been
before the public for some days, it is
only now that this action is beginning
to be fully understood. The Dominion
government has done two things-it
has ordered the provincial authorities
abolished i'll 1890; and failing COM
pliance by the province the Dominion
has stated i'll so many words that a
federal act will be passed for the pur-
pose of attaining this object. And it is
at this point that the danger of the
situation appears. The provinces have
always been Jealous of their rights of
self.government and an attempt to ell
croach on these rights by the passage
of Il federal law to accomplish pro.
vincial object will
Evoke vigorous irOtcSG
in every member of the confederation
outside of Quebec. This outcry will be
especially vigorous i'll Manitoba and
Ontario; because federal law once
passed for the purpose of re-establish-
ilig separate schools i'll Il province can
not be repealed by any power short OF
that of the imperial parliament i'll Eng
! land. Not only this. If the separate
! schools are re-established by federal
legislation in Manitoba a precedent will
he established which will permit of the
Dominion interfering to prevent the
Ontario legislature from divesting the
separate schools of the province of
privileges conferred by the latter body.
1t is because of the far-reaching conse-
uuenc%s involved that there is such hos
tiiity TO the idea of once entering the
wedge Of
Federal Interference.
It is probable that re-establishing separ-
ate schools will be done by Il federal en-
actmelt relieving Roman Catholic
rate-payers i'll Manitoba from local tax
alton for public schools and giving
Roman Catholic school boards power to
lew rates on their own people for the
maintenance of their own schools.
Further than this it is likely that the
Dominion government will retain a
portion Of the subsidy payable by the
Dominion to the province under the
terms of union and apply this as sup
plement to the funds raised by local
taxation for separate school purposes.
Unless the present Dominion govern
ment is defeated before remedial legis-
lation and another party is placed in
power that will respect provincial
rights there will be an upheaval that
will strain the bonds of confederation
