To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
l notice in to-day's HERALD q letter signed "A
Catholic Subscriber" Now why cannot "a Catholic
Subscriber" give his name and addresst When q
person sends q communication to influential jour
nal and wthholds his he places himself in the
position OF an unnatural parent, being ashamed o:

lection to your correspondent "Cahocus" for styl-
ing himself good Catholic. Now Il is well known
these words are only set form OF expression COM
mon among Catholics Again, he says good Cath
ollie wiz not rush into print with view OF drawing
odium on his Church; but "a Catholic Subscriber"

simply begs the question, ana contents himself by
asserting that there is tarel abundant means OF
obtaining relief. Now, rc;erIlng to the article In
