Piles which we in Ireland have been so violently
denounced for main tanning on the land ques-
ton. More significant still is the fact that the
National Reform Union of England invited my
respected Presby terrain Ulster friend, Mr.. Hen .

address on the land system. and have oirou-
lated that address in thousands throughout

FATHER FLANAGAN At JE4NERETTE
Louisiana Sugar Bowl.


We are pleased 70 learn that the people
of Jsanerette possess COW what they so
long wished to have, resident Catholic
paetor. The Rev j. d. Flanagan, for over
seven years assistant priest at the Church
of st. Peter and St. Paul, New Orleans, has
been selected by the Most Rev. Archbishop
for this difficult and laborious position.
The young pastor 10 without a presby-
terry, without q school, and without .
Church, properly so called. Bat from the
knowledge we have of the go aheadative-
ness of the citizens of Jesuerette and of the
energy of their fret Catholic pastor, we arc
confident that they will coon possess Cath
Ollie institutions of which they may be justly
proud. There can be no doubt that such
Institutions contribute much, not only to
the beauty but also to the development
of new towns, such az Jeanerette.
We understand that Father Flanagan
will shortly call upon his practitioners for
aid in building his church and psrOcbiAl
house, and We suggest that he should call
on all nCL-CsthOlic residsntG to assist him
in a work which SO vitality affects the pro-
grees Of the town.
