HOW TO PUNISH THEN.
Boston Pilot.

At the Maine Democratic Convention, G.
b. Haskell, q candidate for the State
Committee, who was one of the Maine Com
missioners at the Centennial Exhibition,
and formerly q member of the State Leg
islature, was voted down by the Cumber-
land County delegation because he had
been a member of q Kuownotbing Order
called the "Patriotic Sons of America"
The swift punishment fell on this "patri-
otto" Democrat as follows: just before
the ballot, Mr.. Charles Mccarthy, of Port
land, in a pointed manner charged that
Mr.. Haskell had been q member of a secret
organization known as the Patriotic Sons
of America, hostile alike to foreign born
citizens and those who held the Catholic
faith. He told the delegates squarely that
it would not do for the party to honor such
men unlees they wished to ignore the in
f1uence and votes of the class referred to.
Haskell was present and heard the charge.
He made speech in which he admit, ed
that he had attended meetings of that Sc
cret society, but said he did so in order
to put himself in position to keep other
Democrats from being led into it. Such
an excuse was easily seen through. When
the balloting proceeded, the punishment
fell as softly Gas a snowflake" Haskell,
who in all else was good candidate, and
would have been nominated, was voted
down by about two to one.
This lesson is worth remem beriDg and
worth repeating. Nothing else will cure
the disease-for it only attacks cowards
and self seekers. The Democratic ranks
are full of Knownothings, who secretly
work against "the foreigners" }" but use them
for their own needs. The Maine Demo
Gratis deserve the thanks of all good citi-
zens. The attempt to ostracise or pro-
scribe a fellow citizen because of nativity
or creed, is-the aRpaEdeaable- Sin against
true Democracy, and can best be punished
by the ballot.

INCREASED RAINFALL IN THE WEST

AS might have been anticipated, the
rainfall in the far w estern States, formerly
hardly adequate for the purposes of culti
walton, has considerably increased since
the occupation of the country. and the
cultivation of the prsiries. Heretofore
every condition has been unfavorable to
the retention of the water in the soil. The
surface, beaten hard, and covered with an
impenetrable sod, could not absorb the
rain water, which soon found it's way into
the water courses and streams, leaving
liEtle moisture in the soil to temper the
aridity of the atmosphere. The winds
were dry and thirsty, and sucked up the
water left in pools and swales with great
rapidity. But as soon aB the tough sod
has been plowed, and the soil been mel
lowed and made absorbent, the rain soaks
into the ground instead of flowing of, and
percolatipg through the subsoil, supplies
springs, which break out in low epots and
furnish water for new rills and brooke.
The atmosphere is no longer Parched, but
becomes moist, and its former extreme
variations of temperature do not occur.
The climate changes, and the moisture OF
the air, and the consequent rainfall, are
increased. A new circulation is established,
and the storms and showers are those OF
temperate instead of torrid zone.
Facts have shown that these conclusions
are correct, and the observations taken in
many places near the l00th meridian, and
eastward to the Missouri River, indicate
greatly Increased rainfall, the increase
amounting in many cases to several inches
a year. Farmers no longer fear disastrous
dropths, aud there are few localities " here
their business is safer than in the locality
referred to.

THE STIGE.
ITS USE AND ABUSE.

McGee's illustrated Weekly tax es this sensible
view of the stage, poin ting ont its use and
abuse.
Within the last few years great change has
taken place in Catholic prsotioe and opinion,
on the subject of theatrical performances. Bis
hops and priests do not unreservedly condemn
the modern stage. apd no5 long ago, in France,
o play-"La File de Roland received the
appreciation of o B,snup. lC is the abuse of
the modern stage that the Church condemns,
for euoh thea ricnls es the passion plays, 80
much in vogue during the middle ages, have
been recognized - good methods of bringing
sacred truths before the minds of the audirors.
There are plsys which are sermons in them
selves, but these, unhappily. are. few. Mere
trioious adsptions from the French, and weak
limitations of the worst French plays, so long
held possession of the stage, that the public
taste seemed to be in danger of thorough cor
ruption, but change for the better seems to
be taking place. People are growing tired of
sensation and immoralty, and etupid attempts
atlow fur; and it becomes Catholics to lead the
way 10 this reform, not by unreserVedly con-
demning the theatre, but by countenancing
only those plays wbicn are thoroughly moral.

they admire q structure that is begrimed with

eoration If any one was to propose to clean it.
Even the white marble stStuary is allowed to
become coal black, and receive fresh coat of

stranger to discover whether it is marble or
bronze. The PaFisian is always cleaning and
polishing, and striving to make that which is
white whittier, and that which is bright bright
