dissolution of partnership s holder burk at the baptist convention now in session at ottawa the question of tax- exemptions was brought up by a resolu tion from the president to the effect that tfic exemption of church property was in consistent with church principles this is ceruinly a step in the right direction and should the resolution be carried the example should be followed by all other protestant denominations no that it will lighten the burdens of the people for perhaps the result to the average rate payer will be of little financial import ance but the principle is a sound one that church and state should be entirely mparatedand it they pay their rates churches and ministers would be able to hold up their heads in municipal and political discussion without being open to tho charge of clerical interference by all means let the ministers take their position among other citizens as rate payers and not be afraid to have their say in matters in which they shall share the general interest because a man holds a position at the head of a church is no reason why he should be less a man a citizen and a voter and by all means let the church be relieved from the charge of receiving charity from the state following out the recommendations of the commission appointed to investig ate the state of french schools in pres- cott itussel and essex the minister of education has issued a circular contain ing instructions and regulations to teach ers and trustees in frenchenglish schools the principal clauses are those pertaining to model schools in distriots where there is a scarcity of teachers mak ing it imperative to hold two sessions an nually and authorizing a series of bi lingual readers used in the french schools in the maritime provinces these measures will scarcely meet the views of the root and branch men who would incontinently oust the french lang uage from our schools and let the little children who know no english in the soup as it were but those who are at all acquainted with the difficulties of acquiring or imparting a knowledge of english must acknowledge that these measures if conscientiously enforced must go a long way towards im proving the state of french schools as the mail points out the duty of the government does not end with the issue of these regulations but a rigid enforce ment of them and the exclusion of all unauthorized textbooks must be carried out i of course the umpire considers them for merely stump purposes but nevertheless the calm honest opinion of everyone must be that the intention of the government is in
