CATHOLIC EXPLANATION.
The police somewhat prepared Tor this from
the address made at st. Patricks Church sunday,
when prayers offered tor McKoown. Rev. Father
Lociairo the ceiebrant He commenced by saying
he supposed the congregation very naturally expected
few remarks from him relative 10 the sud events OF
last week Ho dcpiorcc heartily the death OF a
poor Young man, ana be was sure that they all
dcplorcd II with him. He stated II crime had been
committed they rcpudated IT, but he hoped thFe was
40 crime and that the evidence would show that there
has been mprudence on the part Of the anu
blind fury excited by real or imaginary offence,
which has carried some persons TO an excess which
they had never intended On the other hand, he
stated he wished 10 bring before their notice what no
believed to be the cause oil tho tragedy. He could

NEWSPAPERS.
II does not date from this last years. Twelfth OF
July, but from the the Protestant press took
u stand OF aggression toward the Catholic Church.

taDt and noavy coorng for anything unlavorabie to
Catholics This spirit Of the Protestant press does Its

hatred, which at last In bloodshcd. The cmbers
havo thus long accommodating, and it required but
spark OF lro 10 ignite them
PROTESTANT PRESS BLAMED
IL virtually tho Protestant press which killed tho
young man, and II the Protestant press would deal
with the Catholics IN fairness and justice they would
never find Catholics to be aggressors Any spirit that
tends to divide population embttcr hearts against
another could not DO the spirit Of God. but must
come from tue devil Passing from the Protestant
press TO tho Protestant pulpit the spirit
OF aggression. Not later than 18th of July when
all efforts had been made outside to peace the
pulpit sounded "a sermon which nothing else but
long diatribe against Cithorcs Speak Of union and
calm after this
CHILDREN ABUSIVE.
This spirit or antagonism pcrvades the whole Protes
tart body II reaches even tho schools. He asked
why it was that tho Roman Catholic priests in
suited every day the streets by Protestant boys
girls and sometimes by called gentlemen. These
children only show what they have been taught and
do they get their teaching and II not
IN church and school, or their houses? He said Catno
lie children were never insulting Protestant
lsters; they dreamed Of dong such thing; but
that it would be very easy TO teach them TO do so If
they wished to retaatc. He aIso said that II peace
hnr for nOt onl in Our m DIST
but the whole Dominion, tae Protestant press must
change It's tone Protestant teaching must not aim at
aggression and hatred. II they have wrongs to rectify
rights TO claim lot be done in spirit Of fairness
Of equity, and then Catholics would 90 their duty
GOOD ADVICE
He remarked that great demonstration was to take
place aud advised the congregation
80 to OF the excitement still existing and
that might be tho for another outbreak 1t
for them 10 avoid that temptation 10 SIN and re-
main at home.
