But the two people gat along well to- ther. The big school of the town is French, which has eigliteen teachers, grey nuns from Ottawa. The atten --ntianoe fluctuates from eight hundial] to a thousand. There are all sizes of * childfen Yn attendance. There is an excellent high school, and thé government gives no grant for the continuation clues work, as we shall see. The school is supposed to he bi- lingual, and was, until very rectly, listed as such. It kas beoin recently visived by Dr. Merchant, and is uncer the 'supervision of Inspector Ga- bourg, of Plantagenet. In view of this, it is hard to see how anvoong can say that there is no such thing as a bi-lingual school én, Ontario.

There ix something come lo look at the uafion, we find a total enrollment only forty pupils. Obviously, some body is very neglectinl of the really fine high school in the town. It is noe the English school supporter who fails Lo take advantage of the high school "Hor his children, for half of the attend ance there comes from this school; it is not that the surrounding farmers tho not-appresiate the advantages of the secondary school. It is the French school. On the rolls of the high school therg is the name of .one single, soli- tary child, who got his early educa tion at the bi-lingual school. Ask the reasop why, and you are told. that graduates of the bi-lingual school go to Uigurd. or Papineauville, 'col legen," where a secondary education is taken up. There is another reason. which tends to keep the Hawkesbury child out of the higher schools. The big mills aré close at hand, and* after fifteen years of age a boy usually get work. It is only fair to say, however, that this economic reason applies to the English as well as to the French. 'The principal of the high school is a Br-lingualist in the best sense of the feerm, the sort of-man one dremmy of at the task of teaching the lower schools. A Toronto "Varsity man with years of teaching and of residence am- ong the Fréuch to his eredit, he pre sents an ideal, undortunately, very rare, example of the type of teaches who could do most to solve the bi lingual problem, if any solution is possible, He recognizes the value of French to the English pupil, and so varies the French lessons which the high school regulations allow him to give, x0 that he is giving his pupils a really com- seco in when high school sit of wrong we can they hear on every sidé around them. So Aar as one eould learn after a necpssarily hasty visit to the town, the children "leaving the bi-lingual school, have a fairly good knowleize of English.

There is a handful of cases - where out-of-town children are sent to this school, chiefly from the English com munities in Fa just across the river. In one or two cases, at most, have French parents braved local sen: timent and sent their children to this school. Over ninety-nine per cent. of them, however, adhere strictly to the French school.

The subject of Ireland was "ho longer unpopular on British platforms, the clouds of pre judice and ignorance which whelmed the Irish cause twenty ago having largely he unferetood British opinion at this moment on. the subject of home rule, that opinion required two conditions to be fulfilled in any settlement. The first was that the integrity of the em pire should not be endangered and that the supremacy of the imperial parliament. should pot be impaired And the seeond was that the sights of minorities, both civil and religious, should be absolutely safeguarded in the parliament and government of the Irish people. (Cheers-j] Subject these conditions being fulfilled, he was profoundly convinced that British public opinion was willing to extend to Ireland the largest and widest measure of self-government in her own local affairs. That being so, the discussion on which they were entering was narrow: ed down a reality to these twe con- ditions. Oy the general principle really there was ndthing more to be said. The whole history of the itod- orn world went to prove that local autonomy 'was the supplement and the necessary condition of true imperial union an? solidarity. The German empire to-dsy was absolutely based on the principle of home rule, and the British empire: sisted and was held together to-day the principle of local autonomy. they had' to show was that in toe «pplication of that principle to" Irslans the two ne 1 cessary conditions to whick he had re ferred would be fulfilled. 10#% nation- aliste asked whe government te make it plain beyond the possibility of doubt, that those conditions: would he fulfilled, and to make it plain in the terms of their proposals.

So far as imperial affairs are concerned--the army, the navy, and everything "which#@oncerns not only Ireland alone, but Great Britain and the empire--the imperial parliament alone will havé power or authority.

As to the second condition--that the rights of minorities, civil and relig- fous, 'must be absolutely safeguarded in an Irish parliament and govern- he said that the nationalists in- dignantly denied. the aceysations of religious itolgrance made against the There was no insult which could be levelled against Irishmen, hail so pallmg, ad to call them a nation of bigots. Call them a nation of fools or cowards, but no insult could be devised which ent them to the quick so much as the charge of religious intolerance: Their whole history dwproved that charge. There had been illusions in the press of late to alieged boycotting of men in Ireland, because they were Protest: ants. When the first of those asccusa- tions was published, ho, at Glasgow, asked for particulurs, and he promis- ed that, if he could be given such, he would go down to the spot and de nounce it with all the vigor at his command. (Cheers.) He repeated the challenge the other day in Ireland. How had he been met. Papers opposed to home rule said that "Redmond is a hypocrite." He did not mind had words, but he would onll attention to the fact that no single case had been sent to him, (Cheers.) There had bees and there mow were cases of what was called boycotting in Ireland. Ha was not there to defend intimidation of any sort or kind. Boycotting was a symptom of a disease, and it was, no doubt, a regrettable thing. But he had heard of boycotting in Great Britain--of cases. ¢f people being boy- catted because of their political opin- ions. There was now boycothing in ireland for political and agririan rea- sous; but, honestly, he did not think it was more rife there than here. There was, however, no ease of boy- cotting on religious grounds in any part of Ireland, and his challenge still stood, (Cheems.) In his belief, the only real safe guard was 'to be found in trusting the people. Political freedom and religious intolerance could not live together, The establishment of free institutions int Ireland would of itsell make relig- ious jstolerance an absolute impossi- bility.
