IDOWN WITH COERCION!
I DOWN WITH COERCION! I Dr Macnaanara declares in the "PaJl Mall Gazette" that the Welsh Coercion Adt is all fudge, and that its authors know it. He adds: "Lord Londonderry went somewhere and made a. brave speech, in which he said the Government was not to be shaken from ita purpose by the Welsh revollters. Neither would it allow less than justice to be done to the denominational school in Wales. Ercm that day the Government began to be badgered by solicitous inquiries—which the national society "prabaibly instigated—as to when the Government proposed to make good its v&liant pledge. Hence the Local Autho- rities Default Act. As a. self-respecting in- stitution, the Government was compellad to put it upon the Statute Book, though I doubt 'whether the Prune Minister ever cared two straws abou-t it." K Dr Macnamara goes on to declare that there is much frothy talk on the other side also. Very likely the froth is not all confined to one side. But the upshot of it is that the Default Act "rwill be hung up with the crossbow and arquebuse." Why does' Dr MacnamaTa think ¡,so? It is beca-use. he thinks thatt far more re- markable than Mr LloydJGeorge's acute powers of repartee in debate, his ready humour, and his fine Parliamentary courage, are tae shrewd, calculating foresight and unflagging faculty for organisation which he so conspicuously displays. Dr Macnamara, though sufficiently compli- mentary, ma-kes an insidious suggestion. The Carnarvonshire plan" has been: "No control, no raite. Let the Voluntary Schools subsist on the Go-vermmefnt grant, on subscriptions, and on whatever other benefactions they may be able to secure. The suggestion of pr Mac- naanara is the grants of each county should be "pooled" j and that the large grants earned by the strong public schools should be manipuliatted in such a way as to afford adequate support to the weak sectarian achoo-Is., That is simply giving rate-aid to the&e sectarian schools by a subterfuge as despicable as ic is transparent. Dr Macnamara is quike aware that he is pro- posing a. very questionable expedient. He ob- serves —i "The question is, Will the ardent No-rater allow this money to be pooled and drawn up- on, if necessary, on behalf of the Voluntary Schools? He may jib) because some of it realty belongs to the Board Schools, and' its withdrawal from them involves, in eneol, a heavier burden upon the raJtes," That dodge will not work. The feeling and determination of Merionethshire was fully mani- fested yesterday at the annual meeting of the Liberal Association, held at BlaenatL Festiniog. It is well-known to all who have followed the discussions that Merionethshire standis in a position somewhat different from that occupied by the other Welsh counties. Mr Haydln • Jones, of Towyn; Mr J. P. Jones and Mr E. P. Jones (both of Festiniog)—all three staunch educationists and stalwart Liberals—have been unready to fall in with what is known as the "Lloyd George Scheme." That was not because of any backwardness in taking up a risky] enterprise. leather, it w.a.at due to a readiness to face greater perils than those which the authors of the Welsh Plan of Campaign contemplate. Other well-known leaders of Liberalism in Mer- ionethshire were more impressed with the great need for an unbroken front. What the precise position to be maintained by Merioneth will be I at the end is not yet determined. The Confer- ence to be held at Barmouth on Saturday, be- tween Mr Lloyd-George and Mr Herbert Lewis on the one hand, and! the Merioneth Edhication Committee on the other hand, will probably crystallize what is now floating in solution. Meanwhile, shrewd people will make what they can out of the fact that the Liberal delegates at Festiniog unanimously decided, after full dis- cussion, both in favour of co-operating with the rest of Wales and of maintaining the policy of "No Control, No Rate." The Carnarvonshire Education Authority, at yesterday's meeting, transacted a great amount of detailed business, and discussedi one or two .general principles of great interest. The principle of grading the schools was once more broached by Mr Issard Davies, who seems to be, in this matter as in some others, a true Pro- gressive. We quite fail to see any good reason why the principle of grading (apart from any undesirable method of applying it) should not be accepted. Mr J. R. Pritohardi voiced a timely protest against "levelling down." Of course, it is very necessary to keep a sharp eye on the expenditure as the financial statement of Mr R. Davies showed. But education should be first, and expenditure second. Mr Allanson Picton, though not logically refuted, was out- voted-thus meeting the fate of a man who is before his age. Ten years hence, people will be better able to appreciate his arguments. The proceedings had no direct bearing on the Welsh Revolt. But indirectly, they offered a com- plete refutation to the absurd taunt that the Welsh people object to the Education Act be- cause they do not care for the interests of their children.

TOWN AND COUNTRY NOTES
TOWN AND COUNTRY NOTES The Archdeacon of Merioneth declared that a rumour to the effect that the managers of sectarian schools are willing to forgo the pay- ment of rent for teachers' houses is not correct— is in fact "absolutely false." Such a denial was quite unnecessary, but the emphasis given to it serves to provoke a smile. Nobody in his senses ever supposed! that the parsons and churchwardeeiff. would forgo rent or anything else they could lay their hands on with a show of legality. The Archdeacon adds :The sooner the local education authorities realise that they must discharge their legal obligations, the better will it be for them, for the teachers, and for the cause of education in general." I wondler whether the Archdeacon remembers the Church Rate controversy? » The show oIf the Anglesey and Carnarvonshire Agricultural Society, Ibeld last week at Llan- gefni, proved to :b& a most successful event, the gate being very good. The entries for cattle were not so numerous, but in the other classes the numbers exceeded those of la«t year. The Showm always held very llaite in the season, and it is amrmed t'hat on this account a great many do not enter, the reason being that those beaten in tlhe preloading shawls in the (district db not cowsidietr it wtarth while entering in this. 'Of course, by their remaining outside the aver- age quality of the exhibits is higher; but it is very reasonable to think that a large number of good horses and cattle is kept away, to the liass of tlhe entrance fees, and perhaps a diminrution otf mtlerest in the events. The society is to be congratulated on fihe success of the dlitow, the arrangements for which were so well,carriod. out [ by Mir J. Pritdhard, of Bangor. A great fea- ture of interest was the slhow of agricultural im- plements, of which there was a large number, including some new departures in this line. Lord 'Stanley tif Alderliey is efvinoing great interest in all local institutions, and it is cer- tain that his action in exMbitinig at tibe Angle- sey Show will t!end to enjoourage tibe other lanfdiedl proprietors in Anglesey and Oarnairyion- shtire to go and do likewise. Agriculture and stock-raising are the chief indtistries in Angle- sey, and I think are capable of great devefliop- mtent. The manner in which the tradie in young pigs or "suckers" has .grown here during the last few years '? 'wonderful, and fhias proved of great financial benefit to tlhe county. If we are to judge from fba response made by (Hjolyhead tradespeople wlhen asked if they required the telephone in their businesses, it would' appeair that the,General Post-office is not going tb scoop in much golid at that seaport. The tradesmen individually do not sele their way to paly the required sums, being of the oipind>on that the conditions' of their businesses do not require the aid of the 'phone. I am given to understand that the members of the late Uriban Council guarantoodD120, should thte system be brought into the town, but are not aruciou.3 to reduce the dharge wlM-dli would come on the rates by adapting the tetepthone themselves 'and paying for it out of t'heir business) prooeetdls. Evidently these gentlemen oonsidletr that the fact of itiheiir proportion of the extra rates (being (less than the cost otf having the teleplhlocrae indi- vidually justified tiheir actions in guaranteeing the money and refusing to adopt the system in their businesses. The teleplhiane wtould be very useful for shipping people, ibut this gain will oot ihelp the ratepayers much. If we do get tlhe teleplhlone at Holyhiead, Why not transact the iCouncil'ia business by it, and make a. ichtairge for elach speech ? This would prevent two <otr .tihiree dedlamatiions being delivered at the same time, a.nd the chainge madle wouJtd) be of immense assistance in enforcing obedience to the stand!- ing orders < The Holyhead Town Hall wants ptainting. There aire frescoes on the walls in dirt that oanmlot be washed or rubbed off, so tihiat the best thing to be done is to cover it over With some nice, clean paint. If a supper, tela or din- ner were to (be held in the large iroom, gsjeat profit wKxuld! be made by the cateransby drafwiing the 'outstom'ers' attention to the walls. No appte- tite, however well-nourished, cbuld survive that. Again there arc large holes in the wall at the back of tihe platform wihich make one think of a rabbit-warren. Theatrical companies are to blame for these. Should the repairs be ctarriedl out soiom, the hall could be utiliseid d!ufrin|g the oominig winter for suppers, etc. It would be well if the Council gaive their attention to pro- viding miore (facilities 'for suobt dCuncfciosus, as at present these are very small. It will be of -very little use moving in this direction until the place is thoroughly cleaned and paintedi; but wtbtefn that is dbnet the matter migjht lbe clou- sidered. iWlould not a lift (be useful ? "Do or dite" is the motto which the Holyhead Urban Council are living up to in connection with tihe obtaining of landing facilities for ipas- Senger steamers at tihiat port. Capta-in R. D. Roberts' suggestion at the special Council meet- ing was an exceedingly good one, but it will be well to consider any other schemes put forward whiidh have the appearance of successfully solv- ing the problem. There appears to be a divi- sion a.mongst the members as to wdiieh, scheme will prove most Satisfactory. It is necesisaxy that tlhe Council should! be unanimous on the matter, and the only Way to obtain this end is 1 to diiscuss the pros, and cons. of each sugges- 1 ,a., s tion careffiuly and separately, without (heat, and to keep tlhe discussion free from any personal bickerings. If one sdhemia can be proved im- measurably superior to the others, the Council as a wbolte will unanimously vote for it; but if all the scheme*; have a right to an equal ambunt of support on account of tiheir equality of ad- vantages, then it matters not which is decidted upton.

THE SCHOOLS. There are serious com- plaints that the Carnarvon Council Schools are much overcrowded. In one room there are- over ninety little children, with accommodation for only aoout fifty. The other rooms are also overcrowded, ana very badly .ventila.ted. There have recently been sevenal cases of illness among* children., said to be traceable to the overcrowd- ing and poor ventilation.
