While the minister accepts the principal‘s certificate as having been honestly given, every reasonable precaution will be taken to protect the interests of the training schools of â€" general education, and so to femain upon the approved list a school must maintain the excelience of its standard: from year to year.. _ z* i m The minister of education â€" regards this approved school system as _ an important step in advance.

Mr.. Wright‘s â€" counsel objected to Waiter R. Turnbull, the next highest candidate at the election, taking the seat, on the ground that irregulariâ€" ties were alleged in Mr. Turnbull‘s election contest. ° Mr. Wright‘s contract is still â€" inâ€" compléte, and it is doubtful whether he will be éeligible to veek reâ€"election.
