The Methodist, in recent number, says
of those priests and sisters who have been
stricken down In the Southwest
"Too much cannot be said In praise of
the priests and Sisters of the Catholic
Church, who in this, as in other great dan
gers and calamities, have, at the bidding Of
duty and humanity, calmly gone down into
the very jaws of death, and have offered up
their lives without sigh of regret. Let
their noble heroism and self-sacrlfce beget
among us all spirit of generous emulation
in this great work Of charity and humanity"
We sincerely trust that the generous hope
of the Methodist will be realized, and that
emulation in works Of charity and temper>
snce will take the place of captious carp
ng about religious differences,
