or even ought to have begun so. Really,
the chief question concerns primary edu-
cation, and there remain to the religious
orders scarcely 800 schools. They will be
expelled from these as fast as they can
be replaced: for. above all things, the
children must not be left without teach
ers and without schools, especially after
having passed compulsory education
law.
1t is calculated that a disbursement of
at least $.60O,00O will be necessary for
school buildings. On the other hand, the
majority is determined TO raise the pay of
teachers. and that is an eminently demo-
cratic expenditure. only II will take &c.

There was the speech OF NJ. Jules La

that they are prosecuted and ruled by
Gascons. and that. on the whole, II would
be to their interest not to constitute a
part OF France: the charge of federalism

can do to embitter the situation and TO
heap up charges. while the members OF

a man from Carcassoune, who told them
that man in Perpignan held important
papers. An investigation was held and it
was found that a man from Carcassoune
was a certain NJ. eros. who wanted to an

become still more ridiculous.
