THI North .4merican of last Thurs
day has this to say on the position
Of the Catholics on the temperance
question. 1t was rather bold thing
OF the Boman Catholics in session at
milwaukee, to come squarely out in
opposition to the prohibition move
nent and they deserve the credit
which belongs to those who have the
seo,Irage of their opinions. There is,
moreover, much that is reasonable in
their argument that legislation of
this character is an infringement up
on personal liberty, and is calculated
TO have prejudicial influence upon
the public morals. They can the bet
ter afford to take up this attitude be
cause the Catholic clergy have always
been Jealous and energetic in the
cause of temperance and because
temperance is virtue which is more
generally practised in Roman Cath
olic thsn in Protestant countries
JAY HUBBHLL, has been so much
condemned for the assessments made
for this campaign, that last week one
day to New York newspaper man
he spoke as follows on the subject
The hue and cry that had been rails
ed about this business was senseless
and unjust Two years ago, during
the Garfield campaign, 1 was really
e1acting even to the extent of levy
ing an additional assessment No
fault was then found with me, but
on the contrary, | was set down as a
smart fellow, true Republican, a
patriot. Now, however, there has
gone up shout against the system,
but it has availed nothing. Consid
sring that this is an off year, we have
collected much more than in 1879,
the last off year. The fact is that l
have not received a cent OF the mon
sy, except from Congressman. The
assessment business is not my work,
but the work of the Executive Com
OF Fifteen.
