That is no civil impediment Accord to the Law of Many each other in England according to the requirements it English Law their 1_ a 11 nit yv1 will simply dash of i is already Clear that the Nete Mere decree is to become a matter of ardent debate in Many of the British dominions. It has been the subject o heated controversy in great Bri Tain Tor some months and recant in Canada have also induced discussion Here. This has been particularly vigorous in Montreal and in Toronto but it is quite apparent that the matter is certain to engage the at Tention of the whole Canadian people. It is announced for instance that the methodist Church of Canada is to make a formal deliverance on the question and it is Likely that Othir churches will do likewise. There is a tendency on the part of roman catholics to resent. A criticism of the dec be As a fanatical attempt to inter Fere in a matter purely Domestic discipline. Unfortunately it is not possible to consider this matter As one which affects Only the roman Catholic Church. The question at Issue is one which very properly engages the at Tention of the entire Public seeing that it affects not Only the jurisdiction the state itself tout As Well the rights and happiness of members of other denominations. The be to snere decree attempts the enforcement throughout the world the exception of Germany where certain diplomatic considerations stand in the Way of the decree of the Council of Trent respecting marriages. Hitherto it has not been deemed politic by the Church authorities to Endeavor to enforce this Nils in countries where the roman catholics Are in the minority but the pres flit Bope in furtherance of. His policy it living up to the full Powers of. His is Tut position regardless Tempora or political consequences is now enforcing the n be throughout the whole world with the exception noted. The scope and character of the me Tevere Cit Cree Are Well summarized in the following paragraph which we take j Roni a. Recent number of the North West published in this City As proof that the new Laws rela Tive to marriage Are not fully grasped by catholics yet a respected correspondent writes us to know if two a. Holics could not be. Legally married Tow requin5mlellws Vav marriage is and such marriages will continue to in English Tow valid and binding whether a priest or minister of religion be present or not. The difficulties of the situation arise from the fact that to recognize marriages made in contravention of its statutes even though they May be Legal. If it is proposed to compel the Church to accept marriages made in conformity with the Laws but contrary to its teachings we find ourselves on very questionable ground. The British weekly a Mili Tant. Nonconformist be land discussing this Point recently said if we Are asked whether the Church or any particular Church is invariably bound to recognize As j Christian marriage whatever May be Legal marriage according to the de by Gem by Worcott whew sauce it s a delicious imported or the state we must clearly in the negative. All True churches have a too Trina what constitutes Christian mar they have the Law of Christ follow and they must follow it at hazards. They May interpret it but they must be faithful the interpretation which they this opinion will be concurred in very generally. The Short and easy method therefore of con straining the Homan Catholic Church to recognize state marriages la not available. Tet it is very Clear that the is bound to protect its citizens from Gross injury and insult. To charge Man and woman lawfully wedded.

Brand their children As illegitimate is her i to slander and injure them in a manner which very properly Calls for prosecution and punishment. Some Way out must be found if the Church is to persist in the enforcement of the be Tevere decree. The Church does not concern itself with parties outside its membership it does not feel called upon to express any Opin Ion As to the Validity or Sanctity of unions Between non communicants. This May afford a solution of the difficulty. The Church can forbid its members to violate its rules govern ing marriage and it can warn them of the consequences. If despite this they contract forbidden marriages the Church can drop them from her membership and give herself no further concern As to the Validity or other Wise of the unions they form. But to retain these erring spirits in membership and then to use the weapons of spiritual authority to separate couples lawfully married by representing their Union As adulterous and their children As illegitimate will certainly not make for civic peace. Plain talk on this Point is perhaps Desir Able. Church interference in a mixed marriage of the kind we have Indi will find me Keley Castle an later eting figure Well drawn and marking an exception to the Over worked wife and Southern country by mrs.

Her descriptions of landscape life Are Well done there is even where the literary touch acid the i Ude is interesting enough to hold to of u the most attractive and most appeared in our Issue where there is question of it caring null the marriage of two catholics which bad taken place be fore a protestant minister. Atter looking up the mutter we must admit that the Case Mere reported is not clearly located. Mention should have been made that the marriage in question took place in the province of Quebec. In any other province of Dominion the marriage of two catholics or a. Protestant and a Catholic before a protestant minister would be Legal but not valid Church. In the eyes erf the Church such a marriage is nothing More than legalized concubinage. By a. Special provision of the holy see there is one country where the marriages of catholics be fore a minister is still valid although is Germany. The new Carriage legislation which is officially rated resulting in a breaking up of the Union would undoubtedly give Risa to one of the most serious religious j agitations that we have Ever had in of a prior 1st, j Canada numerous As popular out bursts of this nature have been in the history of this country. It is to be hoped that there will be no Wanton provocation of this nature by some one holding extreme views about the authority of the Church in matters of this sort. The state must concede to every Church the right to discipline its own Mem Bers but it is its duty to safeguard the civil rights and privilege of its citizens and to deny to All other agencies the right to limit or destroy them.

Its main provision is As follows Only those Marii Ages Are valid which Are contacted before the Parish priest or the Ordinary of the place or a priest delegated by either of these and two witnesses " the province of Quebec occupies a Peculiar position on account of its Law respecting marriages but elsewhere. Canada and everywhere in the British Empire so car As our information the civil Law respecting marriages takes no cognizance of the prohibitions which the roman Catho Lic Church seeks to enforce. Thus the 1-aw in Manitoba which is substantially that of. Tie other English can Adian provinces declares the ministers and clergymen of every Church or religious denomination duly ordained or appointed according to the rites and ceremonies of the churches denominations or religious bodies to which they respectively belong May by virtue of such ordination or appointment and according to the rites and usages of such churches denominations or religious bodies respectively solemnize or per form the ceremony of marriage be to veep. Any two persons not under a. Legal disqualification or disability to contract such that is to say any two persons legally capable of marrying can be married by Tho minister of any re cognized denomination and this marriage is valid Fri Law beyond the Power of any authority other than the itself to destroy. The legality of these marriages is not challenged by the authorities of the Homan Catholic Church. The Ijo Dou Tablet the or Gan the Catholic Church in great Britain expressly concedes this Point in an article which appeared in its columns recently. The conditions in great and in Canada with the exception of Quebec Are identical.

The Radical Tage Blatt de clares that the majority of the German people do not agree with the Chance Lor s judgment on the disarmament question while the socialist Vorwart contends that the Chancellor s state ment is a declaration of War against the need for peace Felt by the masses throughout the world and is moreover. He strongest possible Appeal to the chauvinists of All countries to continue their armament rivalry with All the forces at their disposal. It announces that time will soon show that the Chancellor s views Are in direct oppose Jon to the will of the people. A conservative from week Victoria. B.c., or. Borden is a most estimable Man. Of the most Meo inure Meta Ismenia. He could never Lead a guard to Victory much lose a Large party. He has none of instinct a and none of the magnetism of a Leader. He has missed every great Opportunity making a stand against the policy of the Laurier government and in some instances notably that of the trunk Pacific railway policy he literally made a hash of matters through not knowing his own mind his stand on the naval question Wai vacillating and on the present great reciprocity question feeble and featureless. In no sense does he Lead the party at the present time. The leaders of the Liberal party re sort to every device to keep him in his position they successively and successfully arouse his personal Pride and his jealousy in order to Render it impossible for any concerted move irent to secure his removal. In a political sense he is the easiest thing in opposition leaders that a govern ment Ever had to Deal with so no wonder they do their beat to keep him there. A Man who however estimable his character has tailed through ten years of leadership to impress on the party or the country should resign Jusi once More and stay Wilh his res in Mationg whatever the immediate effect on the party might be the ultimate effect could hardly fail to hasten the return of that party to power1. The country is face to face with a great Issue involving not merely Commer Cial but National and Imperial inter ests. Or. Borlen has utterly failed to Rise to the occasion and in the opinion of not a few thinking conservatives the psychological moment for his final retirement has arrived.
