Nominations, - Tuesday, June 16th. Polling, - Tuesday, June 23rd. A Very Serious Matter. On our first page will be found an article, headed “ The Pronouncemcnt of the Bishops,” which we commend to the o earnest attention of all our readers. A ‘ 7 " collective mandemcnt, as it is called, igwe can t sult on You Cheaper has been signed by the Catholic Bishops, an anyone 6 SB. eleven in number, of Montreal, Quebec and Ottawa, directing the laity of the ZBXERYBODY sags we have the best Hats.- Church to vote at the approaching elec- C‘lark & @on. tions for Conservative candidates, as a reward for the efforts made by the late Government to force the remedial bill through the House of Commons. In a. word, an alliance, offensive and defen- sive, has been formed between the Cath- olic hierarchy and Sir Charles Topper, and the latter is said to be dissatisfied because the threat of the infliction of spiritual penalties upon those who dis- obey the mandement was not plainly expressed instead of being merely im- plied. The matter is a most serious one, and, if the object of this new and novel union of Church and State be accomplished, disastrous consequences will surely follow. We want no episco- pal interference with secular affairs in Canada, whether it be by Archbishop Langevin or by our own Anglican bishop calls him- self. The signers of the mandement have madc‘a mistake, and are far more likely to alienate the most enlightened and independent of the Catholics than to impose their yoke upon Protestant necks. About 30 years ago a priest had to be removed from Lindsay be- cause the father of George McHugh, the present Liberal candidate in South Victoria, and other members of his flock would not submit to his tyranny, and Catholics of their stamp are far more numerous now than they were then. ‘ It is not known as a fact that Dr. Nansen has Discovered the North Pole, But it is an admitted fact that if you wish to enjoy a cup of good Tea it is absolutely K necessary for you to purchase Salado.

On Saturday night Sam Hughes held a meeting in 'I‘womcy’s hall, which was full to the doors, but there were a great many Reformers amongst the audience. Mr. 11. J. Lytle acted as chairman, and Messrsdas. Dickson, J. D. Naylor, Wm. McArthur and R. M. Mason, V. 8., oc- cupied seats upon the platform. Bro. Sam has the natural and educational advantages that go to make an effective speaker, but he was advocating a bad cause and an unpopular candidate, and was, therefore, at a great disadvantage. He spoke for fully two hours and a half, devoting most of his time to the Manitoba school question, although he ‘admittcd that it was a “ side issue,” and gave a recently invented explana- tion of his contradictory votes on the I remedial bill. declaring that if the . Government had been defeated upon l the second reading of the bill the Gov- lcrnor-General would have called upon i Sir Charles 'l‘npper to form a Ministry, ibut that if the Government had been Fancy Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Prints, Gingharns,’Cottons, Flannelettes, \Vaterproof Cloaks, Umbrellas, Bed-spreads, Ladies’ and Childrens’ Vests, Babies’ Knitted \Voollen Caps, Tam O’Shanters, Cashmere Hose, Ladies and Children’s Fancy Knitting and Fingering Yarn, Ladies’ Belt Buckles, Fancy Combs, etc , Wash Silk, Etnbroidering Silks, Kid Gloves, Cash- mere Gloves, etc. Thanking my customers for past favors, I respectfully invite thorn to inspect my stock and get prices. murmurs Block, Mrs. Hamilton.

Topper has become Premier by a simpler process, and dc- claros in the most emphatic language that he will do his very best to re-estnbv lish separate schools in Manitoba! The remainder of tho major's speech was a mixture of self-praise, misstatements and partial quotations from the tariff and different speakers and writers cal- culated to serve his purpose, and all of which will be effectually refuted at meetings to be held here between now and election day. He kept the floor so long that the audience began to leave before he sat down, and Mr. Dickson, who succeeded him, only spoke very briefly, confining himselfchiefiy to exi posing a few of what he knew, from his owu experience. to be glaring mistakes or hold attempts at deception. The proceedings closed with three cheers for thelQueen, and three more, but of an inferior quality, for Sam Hughes. Births, Deaths and Marriages. The attention of our readers is drawn to the Act. relating to births, marriages and deaths, which was revised and con- solidated at the last session of the house of assembly. The following sections are the most. necessary to be known to the general public: 15. The father of any child born in this Province, or, in case of his death or absence, the mother, or in else of the death or inability of both parents, any person standing in the place of the parents, or, if there is no such persan. then the occupier of the house or tenc- ment in which to his knowledge the child was born, or the nurse present at the birth, shall within thirty days from the date of the birth, give notice there» of to the registrar of the division in which the child was born, giving as far as possible the particulars required in the form provided under this Act, with such additional information as may from time to time be required by the Regis- trar-Gencral., 21. The occupier of a house or tenc- mcnt in which a death takes place, or, if the occupier be the person who has died, then some one of the persons re- siding in the house in which the death took place, or if the death has not taken place within a house, then any person present at the death or having any knowledge of the circumstances attend- ing the same, or the coroner who at- tended any inquest held on such person, shall, before the interment of the body. supply to the division registrar of the division in which the death took place, according to his or her knowledge or belief, all the particulars required to be registered touching such death, in the form provided under this Act. 23. No removal for burial of the dead body of any person shall take place, and no undertaker, clergyman, sexton, householder or other person shall engage in the burial of the dead body of any person unless a. certificate of registration has been previously ob- tained and shown to the person so rc- mcving or engaging in the burial of the dead body. Provided that when death from a contagious disease has occurred in any township, a certificate of registra- tion from the nearest division registrar after revision by the medical health officer of the township and his certifica- tion thereof endorsed thereon, shall be sufficient; but such divisiou registrar shall forward the certificate to the regis- trar of the division in which the death occurred. 24. The caretaker or owner of any cemetery or burial ground whether pub- lie or private, or any clergyman having charge of a church to which a burial ground is attached, shall not permit the interment of the dead body of any per- son in the burial grounds over which he has charge unless he has received a certificate under the hand cf the division registrar of the division in which the death took place, that the particulars of the death have been duly registered. He shall further be required before the last day of June and of Decemberin each year to supply the registrar of the division in which the burial ground is situate, a list of the number of burials therein during the previous half year, giving the names of the persons whose bodies are therein buried and the dates on which the interments took place. The local registrar. who is the village clerk. has been instructed to see that the law is strictly enforCed. The pen- Well, I fuses or neglects to do so within the time named, such person shall, for each and every offence, forfeit and pay a sum not less than 81 nor‘inore than $10 and costs, in the discretion of the presiding magistrate or justice before whom the case is heard; and it shall be the duty of the inspector of vital statistics for the Province on notice by any division registrar to make investigation, and where necessary to institute proceedings against. such persons so neglecting or refusing to make the required reports ', but, if the return required by this Act to be made by more than one person is made by any one of such‘porsons, the other of such persons shall not be liable to any penalty in respect of his default; and such prosecution shall be comv menccd within two years after the time allowed for reporting the birth, marriage. death or burial. “ School Board Proceedings.
