TIE CALUMET DITCH.

TIE CALUMET DITCH.
Considerable interest is felt over the dis
position which the Hyde Park Board Of
Trustees may make ut their next meeting Of
the assessment for cutting ditch from
Browns Mills Slip across to Pullman.
During last year the village levied an as
scssment upon all extended area Of adjacent
property for the purpose Of cutting all al
legged - ditch" from Browns Slip westward
" to the eastern shore of Lake Calumet. This
"ditch u is proposed to be twenty-five feet
wide OIL the bottom. nine feet deep, and
would, when dug, be between fifty and sixty
feet wide across the top. This would afford
Il short cut to Lake Michigan for: the Pull
man Land Association. OStcns!bly this
project is to better the drainage of that sec-
tion. The owners Of some portions Of the
assessed have objected to the assessment,

! it is lawful to garble quotations and sup
press words that materially affect the
sense or meaning of the author quoted
This is yet worse than all he has previous
" said or DONE In the So called abstract,
be it remarked, the cardinals words are
inserted between quotation marks, with no
asterisks where the omitted words occur,
and it was thus simply impossible for the
reader to suppose that he had not full
text of the cardinals words before him.
Mr.. Smith is too honest to deceive his
Methodist congregation, but it is all right
for HIM to lead into error the readers of
the Pioneer Press, - this is the case as it
now stands
The fact is that Mr. Smith garbles and
mutilates Catholic authorities through
some natural necessity In his letter of
Sunday last he makes new attack upon
Cardinal Manning He insists that
the cardinal does defy history, ''and this, !"
he adds, ssis consistent with the trend OF
Roman thought" To show the cor
rectness of his position he quotes: els
there any tribunal of appeal in matters OF
history, or is there no ultimate judge? Is
history word where no one can err, or
is it wilderness in which we must wand
er without path or guide? Are we all left
to private judgment alone ? Ii any one
say that there is no judge but right rea-
son and common senae, he is only repro
ducing in history what Luther applied
to the Bible. This theory may be intel
lectually and morally possible to those
who are not Catholics In Catholics such
a theory is simply heresy." Now in the
very same paragraph OF the cardinals,
are two sentences, one Immediately pre-
ceding Mr. Smiths quotation, and the
other Immediately following it, which
throw full light on the card
inal's words, and these two
sentences Mr. Smith dexterously omits.
The first one is: "Between such CONTRA
dictoa.y Judgments who is to decide?" The
second is: "That there is an ultimate
judge in such matters of history as affect
the truths Of recitation, is a dogma of
faith" have italicized the important
words in the two sentences Whatever
may be consistent with sthe trend of
Roman thought" the garbling of authors
is fully consistent with the trend of Mr..
Smiths thought. will follow Mr.. Smith
no farther With what has been said the
readers of the GLOBE will, am sure,
duly appreciate these words of the 'plain,
Mr.. Smith: 81 have
quoted Catholic authorities with scrupu-
lous care, and have examined the declara
lions of their own theologians, that
might give their own presentment of the
case" Manning and Bellarmine-
latter especially-are examples of Mr..
Smiths scrupulous care in quotations.

Navigation Notes.


The gauge marked six feet four inches
yesterday, rise of one inch the preced-
ing "a hours, fact which was cheerfully
received by river men.
Set backs come to every undertaking,
sooner or later Plain, smooth sailing
was never yet vouchsafed to any mortal
or enterprise The brief history of Com
modore Davidson's fast packet, Gem City,
built after model of his own, with the
idea of making a weekly round trip be-
tween St. Louis and St. Paul, furnishes no
exception to the rule. To satisfy himself
of the probable success of his experiment,
the Commodore assumed command upon
the first trip of the Gem City, and retained
it through three trips, making rea-
sonably close connections. Then, other
business demanding his attention, he
turned the command of his ideal over to
Capt. Abe Hutchinson, one of the most
experienced and clear headed comman-
ders ever directing boat on the upper
Mississippi, but there are certain con-
tingencies that experience, forethought,
etc., cannot provide against. Capt. Abe
experienced one of those unavoidable
contretemps He was sailing along finely
and making schedule time to st. Paul,
when short distance below Prescott,
between two and three hours distant
from St. Paul, the boat refused to respond
to the driving power of the engine. In
vestigation showed a arrangement
of the machinery, which required
eight hours to repair. So it was
the Gem City did not reach St. Paul I'M
til o'clock yesterday morning, greatly
to the disappointment of the large num-
Der of passengers booked for her down
trip. The great majority of these pas
sengers assembled at the company's Of
fee early in the evening, and as hour af-
ter hour passed after the time announced
for the boats departure, with no tidings,
and Capt. Reaney and his assistants un-
able to furnish any information, there
was more or less grumbling, but the ar
rival of the boat as above stated, and the
explanation following, made everything
lovely. The Gem City brought in an
even three hundred passengers, a major
ity of whom were through from St.
Louis and about $50 tons of freight. She
left on her return to ST. Louis at yester-
| day morning with nearly $50 people, and
next Friday Capt. Hutchinson will have
her at the levee ready to leave at 6 p. m.
The mammoth Centennial, of the
Saints line, Capt. Tom Davidson, laying
here from Friday night to give the Gem
City the right of way, left last evening
with goodly number of people and
small freight. The next boat of this line
will be the White Eagle, Wednesday
next.
