FIRST AMERICAN PILGRIMS.

yesterday q scene OF UNUSUAL INTEREST
to the Christian world was witnessed in
the Fifth Avenue cathedral, New York,
when Archbishop CoRRIGAN gave his
benediction to the departing pilgrims
who set out on Journey to the Holy
Land. The event was notable because
it is the first American pilgrimage to
the land and scenes of the Sayior's
nativity. and the pilgrimage is made
under the auspices of the FranciscanS,
to whom the Christian world is indebted
for preserving the places made sacred
in the life of CHRIST. For centuries the
Franciscan order has had charge Of the
sacredly historic places in the Holy
Land, and. although successive dynas-
ties have risen and fallen, and Christian
and Mohammedan have fought with
varying fortunes for control of Pales
tine, the. Franciscans have held on
through peril, martyrdom and every
trying vicissitude, and are to-day still
the guardians of the sacred scenes be-
longing to the Christian religion.
In days of old, when knights were
bold, and went forth in gIittering PAN
oply to WIN laurels in the battles of the
Crusaders, and when kings and en-
perors did homage at the Vati
can, the Franeiscans prospeTed,
and had no difficulty in maintain
ing their sanctuaries and administer
ing to the wants of pilgrims who visit
ed the halloWed places of the East.
But in the last two centuries they have
had to depend for their support and
that of their charges on the aims of the
faithful throughout the world. Their
hearts have recently been delighted by
the order of Pope LEO, that all the
offerings in all the ehureheS Oh Good
Friday shall be sent to the Holv Land
as contributions towards preserving
the sanctuaries identified with CHESTS
life, passion and death.
The pilgrims who left New York yes
terday number one hundred, consisting
of clergy, laity and ladies from all parts
of the United States. Among the north
westerners in this band of pilgrims are
Messrs. Louis Dion and JOSEPH LEFE-
BvRE of st. Paul and the Revs. J. T.
DURwARD of Baraboo, j. j. KEOGH, of
Milwaukee and STEPHEN TRAUT, of Ra-
cine. The pilgrim band is under the
direction of Father VIssANI, the COM
missary of the Franciscan order, who
wears growing beard SO that he may
not lose the respect of the Turks,
who consider that a shayeR chin is a
mark of punishment or penitence for
some misdeed. On their departure from
New York yesterday the pilgrims car
ried handsome silk banner which
bears the American shield. the coat of
arms of the commissary, and the words
''First American Pilgrimage to the
Holy Land. 1880" 1t is to be placed on
the tomb of the Savior.
All who have reverence for the
historic relics Of hristianity-Protest-
tants as we'll as Cathelics-Will join in
general God-speed to these devout pill
grims as they follow the paths which
marked the footsteps of the Holy One,
from the inn at Bethlehem to that
rugged spot on Calvary where the work
of redemption was finished.

HOW IT WORKS.

Those who are opposed to prohibition
find, as they claim, that it drives away
capital and increases taxation. Several
cities in Iowa and Kansas are cited IN
this connection. In DeS Moines the tax
rate is given as from 6.2 to So per cent;
in Atehison 5.65, and nearly the same in
Topeka. Kansas City is eo1ltrasted with
a tax rate of IA per cent. and capital
abundant. Figures, however. do not
always represent facts in their full ro-
tundity. The friends of the restrictive
system may work i'll other data Or causes
to their satisfaction. But they have
small concern for financial consider
ations when their theory is involved.

But the ultimate outcome of it will be
the selection of Hon. A. G. Mellette for
the position, with the backing Of all Da-

are under consideration, but Mellette

that inasmuch as South Dakota bad to
