svstem Their achievement will be the greatest
advance made since Forster's work of thirty
odd years ago. Moreover it will for the first
time place all schools under common control
a result scarcely inferior i'm value TO the first
mentioned. 1t will not quite abolish the dual
system. There will still he Church schools and
board schools: but both classes will be under
the same authority. and that Will be the local
civil authority Of the places in which the schools
exist.
Now. the chief objection 10 the bill on the
part of the Radicals and some Nonconformists
seems TO he that II tOlerates the dual system
and does not sweep the Church schools out of
existence altogether. Here. however. is the stu
alton: There are thousands of Church schools.
most of them being in places where there are
no others. To take them for hoard schools
without compensation 70 the Church would he
unlawful confscatiOn. To purchase them out
right would cost at least S125 900. suppOs-
ing the Church 10 he willing I'm all cases to sell
which it probably would not he. To build new
board schools TO take their places would cost
s2OOOOOO0O Beyond doubt there would he
much popular grumbling against such an ex-
penditure. which would he denounced as un-
necessary by the very men-Or some Of them
who are now raging against the only practical
alternative. which is TO continue the Church
schools at present, under public support and
under public or civil control
It is a noteworthy fact that the strongest op-
ponents of the bill are now making frequent
references 10 Forster and his great education
bill of a generation ago. and are loud and I'M
stinted in their eulogies OF him and of it, There.
they say was true. broad craftsmanship. in
grateful contrast 10 the narrow, bigoted clerical
ism Of the present measure. Alas for the
brevity of political memories The fact is that
Forster in 1870. was attacked even more bit
terly than Mr.. BalfOur now is. and his bill was
denounced even more vehemently than the
present measure: and that on the very same
grounds and by the very same class Of Radicals
and NOncOnfOrmists on which and by which
Mr.. BalfOur and his bill are condemned, In
such circumstances we cannot help wonder
ing if the present Outcry is rot as artificial as
that of 1870 and il Mr.. BalfOur may not In
time share Forsters vindicatOn.

THE BRITISH SCHOOL BILL.

taken into account, and one which should
