lRISH ART REVIVAL.

1t seems as though ish-Americans
were constantly called upon to do some
service or other for Ireland. They
have responded to these calls very
generously in the past. The latest
movement is to establish Il National
Art Gallery in Dublin. Just at this
time, when thousands Of people in the
West of ireland are starving, it seems
rather ridiculous to suggest the raising
Of money to foster the fine arts in
that country. Yet, Notwithstanding
that ireland ut the present time fur
nishes n barren field for the arts which
are the flowers Of nations life, vet

/ the Bronx, two of the five burroughs
/, of the city, there are sixty parochial
schools representing an original cost of
! almost $5,OOO,OO0. These schools are
all crowded, containing upwards of
10000 students. There is one Cath
Ollie high school in the city. 1t has
four-years' course and is approved by
the state department of education. The
grades and courses of secular studies
i'll the parochial schools are made to
conform as nearly as possible to those
of the public schools. About one-half
hour each day is devoted to religious
instruction. Many of the schools have
well established and thoroughly equip
ped kindergartens, from which excel
lent results are obtained, according to
the superintendent. A large proper
ton of the schools take the regents
examination in arithmetic, geography,
grammar and spelling, also the exam
nations for entrance to the Normal col
lege and high school. A proposition to
establish an additional grade for the
teaching of algebra, geometry, Ger
man, Latin and stenography is now
under consideration by the parochial
school board. OF the 800 teachers in
Manhattan and The Bronx vast ma
jority are nuns or Christian Brothers.
The lay teachers number about 25O and
they are mostly young women. A man.
ual for their guidance has been issued
by the Catholic school board, which
prescribes as definitely as possible the
amount Of work to be accomplished in
the various grades. Teachers must
have certificates from the school board
before they can begin work. No teach
er may infiict corporal punishment.

they constitute now majority of the
population of several counties Of east
ern Ontario, and have very large and
promising settlements in western On
tario, i'll Manitoba and the Northwest
territories.
The late Premier Mercier's dream of
the establishment of a French re-
public upon the banks of the st. Law
renee, and the prevalent French Cana
dian belief in the future destiny of
the race as the controlling influence in
the northern part Of the continent
stand a much better chance of fulfil
ment than they otherwise would have
because of the similarity of the COM
plants that come from the English
speaking province Of Ontario to those
that Emile lola has made in respect
to France.
Were it not for immigration and the
remarkably low death rate in Ontario,
it's population would be at standstill,
and show no increase at all, while in
the province of Quebec the birth rate
is nearly double that both of Ontario
and of France. This, enormous birth
rate must not be attributed solely to
the simple manner of living that
marks the majority Of the population.
Early marriages are the rule, dictated
largely by the wonderfully early de-
velopment of the people.
The rapid growth of vegetation in,
the short but hot Canadian spring and
summer finds it's counterpart in the
early maturity of the youth Of the land.
Many French Canadian girls four
teen and fifteen years of age are more
fully developed specimens Of woman
hood than English or American girls Of
nineteen or twenty.

This is fourteen per cent. of the school

THE REAL ELECTION.

Most people, no doubt, think that
the last presidential election took
place on November Sth, 1904, and that
it was on that date that Theodore
Roosevelt and Charles w. Fairbanks
were chosen for president and vice
president for the term commencing
March 4th, 1905. This widespread be-
lief Is erroneous The real election
took place when the electors chosen by
the different states met at the different
state capitols and cast their votes for
their choice of president and vice pres
ident. The result of this election will
be declared in the National Capitol at
Washington when those electors or
their representatives present to the
president of the United States Senate
the votes of the different states of the
Union. Then and there the result of
the election will be declared. 1t is
provided in the constitution Of the
United States that each state shall ap-
point electors, who in turn shall vote
for president and vice president. The
manner of appointing them is left to
the state Legislatures but Congress
may determine time of choosing cleo
tors and has done so. The constitution
provides that the day on which they
shall give their votes shall be the same
throughout the United States. This day,
as fixed by law at the present time,
is the second Monday in January. Ac-
cortlingly on last Monday the electors
met in their respective states, and pro-
ceeded to choose the president and vice
president. 1t was the intention of the
trainers of the constitution that these
electors should exercise their own choice
in voting for president; and, so far as
the constitution goes, they have right
to do this, but it is II right that has
never been exercised. 1t has become
customary to nominate certain men
for these positions who in turn are
supposed to support candidates already
named by political party for the
highest offices. This custom has vir-
tually become law with us, and it
would be regarded as revolutionary
should any elector of any state vote
for any other person than the party
candidate nominated Mt the general
election. If electors now ventured to
use their own judgment in electing
president, and thus violate custom
which has grown up, they would be
regarded in the light of criminals.
This is a good example Of law created
by custom. These laws are as binding
upon people as written constitution.
Never in the history of our country
have electors disregarded their in
structions. Once they did vote for
another man than the party candidate
but that was in the case of the cleo
ton of 1872 when Horace Greeley, the.
Democratic candidate, died between
election day and the meeting of the
electors. In that election the electors
elected to support Greeley scattered
their votes among several candidates Of
whom Thomas A Hendricks of Indiana
and B. Gratz Brown Of Missouri were
leaders.
The law applying to the election Of
president and vice president is good

last Monday night. NOT to he out,lone

This is most cheerful news and will
be accepted in the best Of faith. Just

Rumor says that the representatives
OF some noble families in italy recently
went to Plus x to protest against the
appointment Of bishop, who, like the
Pope himself, was not nobleman,
says the Northwest Review. The Holy
Father very properly replied that the
origin Of the new bishop was none Of
their business. This recalls the answer
once given by famous priest who was
enormously supposed to be very proud
OF his aristocratic connections. AS he
bore noble name, everybody thought
he had no plebeian blood, and one
snobbish person suggested that it must
be very trying for him to have to deal
