NOT A CHARITABLE INSTITU.
TON.

The Treasury Of the United States is
not q charitable institution.
Members of Congress have no right to
give away that which does not belong to
them.
There are bills pending in the Senate
or the House, perhaps in both. to re-
store to the army, and especially to It's
pay-rolls, sundry officers who at various
times have seen fit to resign. The most
conspicuous of these officers are Gen.
Fremont, Gen. Pleasanton and Gen.
Ayerill.
Now, we do not question the services
of these gentlemen when they were in
the army, nor do we dispute the SINGER
ity of their present desire to be restored.
What we say is that Congress has no
right to restore them.
They resigned for their own purposes
to take their chances in private life, and
if their expectations have not been real
lied, the fact does not authorize them to
ask charity from the Federal Govern
ment. Nor does the Constitution au-
thorize Congress to give away the pub
lie money in charity.
The United States is not an eleemosy-
nary establishment. No member of
Congress can take the public money and
give it away for the relief of individu-
ais without violating the Constitution
which he has sworn to obey and observe.
New York Sun.
The Constitution is becoming a Sec
ondary affair. Charity, or the pretense
of it, is more popular than the Constu-
ton. According to the present trend Of
things, we may reasonably expect to heal
it eventually positively declared (put into
Republican platforms) that the Constiti'
tuition is one of the multitude Of sins
that charity ought to cover.

THE PROPAGANDA.

The Congregation of the Propaganda
at Rome was instituted by Pope Gregory
XIV in 1922. The Board of Cardinals
who compose it are charged with super
intending and directing all the vast mis-
sionary enterprises of the Catholic
Church; with guarding and promoting
the interests of the missions, and with
securing the training of competent mis-
sionary laborers. The College of Car
dinals is the Pope's Supreme Council.
In the course Of two and a half centur-
les the Propaganda has accumulated an
immense property, consisting OF college
buildings and lands, libraries and mu-
seums, and amounting in value to mil
lions.
Last January the Supreme Court OF
Cessation of Rome declared that the real
estate of the Sacred Congregation is la
BILE to conversion and partial confiscation
bv the Italian Government under GER
tain acts suppressing religious Orders
and organizations (which imply COM
munity life" and providing that all the
property of religious corporations be
turned into the national exchequer, with
out power of being diverted into other
channels, the interest merely, after the
deduction of 40 per cent for taxes n
expenses Of administration, to be received
by the original owners, if, and when, the
Government chooses to pay it.
In the decree Of condemnation the
American College at Rome was included.
As this institution was established and
is maintained by American Catholics,
Cardinal McCloskey~ requested President
Arthur to interfere to save that property
at least. Representations were accord
ingly made to the Italian Government,
and the American College was declared
exempt from conversion and confscation.

ONLY A NIGHTMARE.

What troubles us is that a pan against
whom charges are brought. should have
been thought Of as the Republican nom
inee for President by any one who de-
sires the party to be victorious or who
wishes the principles with which the
party is identified to prevail.-Boston
Daily Advertiser.
The season of privileged bellyaching
ends with the nomination. After that
you hew to the party line let the chips
fall where they will.
