"RICHMOND HILL. ONT" AUG. l_, ’ was var COUNCIL’S J ANSWER. ’ The judgment of the Privy Coun- cil of England in the marriage case, handed out Monday, confirmed the opinion of the four judges of the Su- preme Court- of Canada, that the v Dominion Parliament has no power ‘to pass laws relating to marriage. In 'the opinion of the courts the various provinces have the sole authority to make laWS for the solemnization of marriage. That settles the question wvithout a doubt, but it seems unfor- tunate that the Privy Council in its? wisdom did not condescend to give an answer to the second question: "Does the law of the Province of. Quebec render null and void, unless contracted before a Roman Catholic priest, a marriage which would be otherwise legal. which takes place in such Province? (a) between two persons who are both Roman Catho- ' lics, or (b) between persons one of whom, only, is a Roman Catholic ?" The Privy Council‘s only answer is: “In View of the previous decision this becomes 'unimportant and super- ' fluous.” .~ The man in the street cares little Whether the marriage laws are enacted by the Provinces or the Dominion, but he wants to know whether the marriages referred to above are legal 01' illegal, and whether children of such contracting parties are to be branded as illegiti- mate. The public will not be satis- fied with anything less than a posi- tive answer. If question No. 2 is answered in the affirmative there will be a strong agitation to have the Quebec law changed, failing which a change in the British North America Act will be asked for. Canada will not be inclined to submit to a law which is more favorable to Catholic priests than it is to Protestant minis- ters. fl _____....__.. The Mail and Empire is opposed to giving Ireland the privilege of mak- ing her own local laws. In an edi- torial note Tuesday The Mailoasks:â€" -"What sort of prosperity will Home Rule give Ireland when the very discussion of it results in the crippling of Harland and Wolff’s shipbuilding plant, one of the great- est industries in the country”. It is true a 'gooddeal of rioting ’ and much bad feeling have sprung up over the discussion of Home Rule. In Ulster on the 12th of July when Orange speakers mentioned the name ‘ of King George that Sovereign was treated with derision. because he is supposed to be in favor of an Irish Parliament. But we cannot see why The Mail and Empire should blame supporters of Home Rule for the trouble. Home Rulers in Ireland 'nowobey the laws made by the British Parliament. If the same Padiament pass a measure for Home Rule is it reasonable for the Orange- .men tosay they will not submit to it? ‘The minority should submit to the q‘major‘ity, and The Mail should not ,{cncourage them in their spirit'of "defiance. _¢=â€"â€" ____.__._.___ The Catholic Register says: “There were 38,247 converts re- ceived into the Catholic Church dur- V ‘ing 1911.' These figures have been , secured .by the Apostolic Mission House at Washington, D.C., from the reports from chancery offices through- out the country, and they possess all ;a'vailable accuracy. They are the aggregate of adult baptisms taken ' from the baptismal records." » If these figures are correct is‘the report not startling from a Protestant: standpoint? Can it be shown that Roman Catholics in any considerable numbers are leaving their church - and connecting themselves , with , Protestant denominations? Orange societies are increasing rapidly, par- ticularly in Ontario. Can it be shown that Orange lodges are making con- verts from Catholicism, or are they g driving Catholics more closelv to- gether? These questions are asked ' in all seriousness. An answer will be appreciated. oi goods. ' from me or elsewhere. somining, Etc.
