preston against Minnesota the bishop in
dustriously labored TOT ramovs, though at
times he, found it difficult, for many refused
to o.give it, a place on TIL, fImap. Minnesota
should not be allowed to rest dnder this dis
advantage. The bishop expressed it as his
belief that no State afforded better deld to
the agriculturist than our own, il soil and
stability Of climate. he was. willing
to have it stand the, test against any other,
with the confident assurance thai in all re-
spects our State was isu preme. Firm in this
belief, and feeling that all residents shared
it with him, he could not but fesl that our
people did not do their State Justice by rep
resenting it abroad. This couldIbe repaired
by inviting visitors to the State. In further
ance Of this, tho bishop had I invited, and
received favorable response, over
thirty prominent men Of Boston, Philadel-
phia and New York to visit onrS State. They
would be here in a month, ard it was the
Bishops intention to carrys them through
the State, to the colonies, and he felt as

In this connection, the bishop deemed it a
wiser policy if the railroads would inaugur.
ate series Of. excursions, and thus flood the
country with visitors, and every one would
take home glowing account Of Minnesota.

was sincere, begotten Of familiar acquain-
tance with the subject and the nature of the
country of which he spoke. And in this
way he intimated he had talked to eastern
friends and audiences. In this con-
nection he stated that + Y over
10000 copies Of the State Catholic Coloniza-
ton Bureaus. pamphlet had been distributed
in the East, and they. had not been circulat,
ed at random, hut with an eye to serving a
good and immediate purpose. s.3
In conclusion, Bishop Ireland epitomized
his remarks in the one word, ADVERTISE.
ARCHBISHOP PURCELL, OF o1No1NNArI.
1n the course d the conversation reference
was made to the lamentable financial diff
culties embarrassing Archbishop Purcell.
In response, Bishop Ireland gave an ac-
count of the meeting of over thirty bishops
at the residence of His Eminence Cardinal
.McCloskey, where plan was
devised for the venerable prelatels relief. "A
full statement of the archbishop's liabilities
were made and embodied in an address to
the church, asking that contributions be
made to assist in thus great aud commenda-
BILE charity. No church is laid un1er obliga-
tions to contribute, but all are expected
for the honor and welfare of Holy church
to como to the aid of thu venerable and un-
fortunate archbishop.
Bishop Ireland stated that in this diocese
papers would be circulated at once for sub:
scriptions. Following this, general collec-
tions in all the churches wpuld be taken up.
The bishop was free to confess that he hoped
a generous response swotld be made to
this 4 call in behalf lf4 of y So
venerated dignitary of the church, who
in the nobleness of his nature and little &C
quaintance with business details had fallen
into great and distressing embarrassment.
