Another newspaper organ has also Just

title of Nationalist. 1t is being pub
lished in this city and promises to give
an independent support to the political

industrial movement and the! movement
for university EDUCATION. According t.

Oppose Coeducation.
The Roman Catholic Clerical School
Managers association has adopted the
following resolution:
"That inasmuch as the bishops of
ireland declared in a recent resolution
we are distinctly of the opinion that
the amalgamation of boys and girls
schools beyond that which has hitherta
been provided by the rules Of the na
tional board should be resisted,' and
1nasmuch as the board of national edu-
cation, by majority almost exclusive
ly non Catholic, persists in setting at
naught the representations fmade t;
them from our bishops, from the great
majority of school managers and teach
ers, and from the Irish members ofspar-
lament, and the protests of six out of
sixteen 81 tn of their own body, we advise
al the managers of national schools in
Ireland to unite in refusing to cut in
force. the new amalgamating rules, b.
refusing to exclude girls from boys
SCHOOLS and by refusing to admit bows
10 girls schools except in accordance
with the practice hitherto followed.''
Another resolution denounces the new
rules as detrimental to education and
morality. ''A' ''AiO
Funds for Land Act
The Unionist press welcomes the chief
secretary's announcement that funds
nave ma been found for the partial relief
1stration of the Land Act and sneaks
warmly of Mr.. Longs personal efforts
70 promote solution Of the problem.
But the relief is only partial, and it is
felt strongly that larger and more rad
1cal measures must be adopted if serious
developments are to be averted. Bv
the end of next year the sum in cash
winch the land commission will have
nad TO TO distribute will amount to $11O,-
Ooo,oo0. But the sum involved in the
provisional agreement already entered
INTO amounted, according to the last
off1clal estimate, to upwards of $14O :
10000. Even if no further transact
ton were to ia Ike place in the course
or the next twelve months, there would
still be deficit of over 100000.
View of the Irish Times.
The Irish Times is opposed to anv
scheme which would violate the prin-
ciple Of payment in cash, and advises
Mr.. Long to try the suggestion made
by the land owners convention of issu-
ing treasury certificate to the vendor

toned. THE vendor might or might
not be able to raise money on it at q
reasonable rate to pay off his charges
but at any rate no harm could be done
by such a device.'
The Freeman Journal which has
no particular love for Mr.. Long, tells
its readers that the chief secretary il

tenants have agreed to pay into remu

tricts board have purchased farm O.
about 700 acres, the property of tn

engagements for the migration to tn

". The Pigs Of Ireland.
Mine years egg e. the he pig population
had declined to 1,l64,322. AS Englan
is the great mark ct for the product Q
the Irish piggeries this decline ha
naturally tended to raise the price O
pigs meat in that country. Jane
O'Mara, the member of parliament fro1
South Kilkenny, is authority for tn
statement that the decline is due t
competition: Twenty years ago, he sale
the pigs killed by the firms of Limeri
Cork and Waterford ranged from IS
600 to 10000 per week. Now the kill
1ngs OF these firms have fallen to froI
5000 to 10000 week. 49, -
In 1850 the Danes did not kill NOR
than 5000 a week; now they kill fror
- $4,000 to 10000 per week. Ninety pc
cent Of the Danish and 80 per cent O
the Canadian curings go to the Englis
market. The Canadian can grow hi
hog for 32s per hundred pounds and til
Dane for 35s per hundred pounds, dea
weight, while the Irish breeder says b
cannot profitably grow his pig unde
4Os per hundred pounds. The questio
of freight also comes in. ~
Mr.. O'Mara says that from the
packinr house in Palmerston, Canad
his firm can bring bacon to London fc
34s per ton. Without cold storage
the winter months the freight fro
Canada is 20s per ton. The freigl
from Limerick to London by any rout
is 34s I'd per ton. The average freigl
from Denmark to London is 25s per to-
