ENTERED AT PoS16FFICE AS SECOND CLASS MATTE
SATURDAY, APRIL 26. 1890.

When confronted by the facts that
protection advances and keeps up wages
the free trade attorney, true to his habit
of following surface Indications" points
to what he calls the unprotected bust
ness of the CARPENTER, the mason, the
blacksmith, etc., and cites the fact that
these callings command higher wages
th,ln are paid in some of the industries
recognized by our tariff laws. This con-
slant reiteration of what everyone CIV
ing the subject proper thought mus; see
has no parallel application, can deceive
none but the most unwary. A sufficient
reply is found in the fact that the class
of mechanics enumerated have the
monopoly in their lines of wol k, as they
are shielded from foreign competition
by conditions that render it impossible
to import ready-r,ade houses, to shoe
horses or repair wagons and machinery
in other countries, even if foreigners
stood ready to do the work for nothing.
Bricklayers, carpenters, painters,
blacksmiths and similar occupations are
protected by conditions that place for
eign competition out of the question,
and it is this fact, together with the fur.
Their one that in the building trades the
time for outdoor work is limited to the
middle season of the year, that insures
to such workmen better wages for the
time that they are employed. True, the
farmer could send his team to Canada
to be shod, and his machinery to Europe
for repairs without violating any law
except the law of common sense, but he
finds it more economical to pay higher
prices to his neighborso than mechanics
at a distance might be willing to work
for-and this affords for that class Of
workers the very best of protection.
The men in these absolutely protected
occupations should be the last to refuse
to accord statute protection to those of
their fellow workmen whose callings are
exposed to the competition of for
eigners.

Father HarriSOn'S LETTER.

It is to be regretted that men like
Rev. c. R. Beal continue to be insulted
in this civilized city, but when the noble
and manly utterances of Archbishop
Ireland, who openly champions the
rights of the Colored people, are allowed
to pass without comment, what can be
expected. ....
Men may visit Judges, law and fight
until doomsday, but until the conscience
is convinced of it's error the werk is all
in vain; and the most effective means
to shape the public conscience is the
reproduction of such golden words as
were uttered by the Archbishop of St.
Paul on the occasion Of the late Cretin
Hall concert.
Let us be honest with ourselves. The
Catholic Church is the true friend of the
Colored people.
The Catholic Church proclaims it's
friendship before the world.
The soul of Colored man is as dear
to the eyes of Catholic priest as the
soul OF the prOudest man that walks the
earth, because the Catholic priest serves
a Master who shed his sacred blood for
all men alike.
If any man who reads these lines can
find any reason-save supernatural
reason-why we Catholics are so anxious
about the souls of the Colored people
here in st. Paul, let him bring it forward
in next weeks APPEAL, and I promise
him the pleasure of seeing his asper-
sions riddled to his hearts content.
Not the votes nor the dollars nor the in
fuence of the Colored people do we
seek. We seek their souls. and nothing
else.

Is 1t true? Ifso, we are sorry that the

st. Paul has led the county and CITY Of

Rev. j. Nj. HendersOn's Letter

1t is little strange that impersonal
remarks are to be made the excuse for
personal retort. Perhaps the Rev.
Mr.. Harrison is seeking a means of
gaining of access to Protestant homes
by provoking a discussion through an
orgon which at present has the conf
dence o + all.
His statements indicate one of two
things: either be is not in harmony
with the position generally imputed to
the Roman Catholic Church, or else he
cunningly misstales the doctrine of that
Church. for the purpose of misleading
the people. His use of the word
idiots" does'not merit further notice.
The old Roman Catholic Church is
said to teach that, 1.-The true spiritual
lite is thing impossible outside the
Roman Catholic Church." The Rev.
MIR. Harrison however sets this aside
and says. There are many Baptlsts and
Methodist who have won heavenly
reward, thereby confessing that men
can be saved without costly sacraments
administered by priests Of apostolic or
dination. agree with him for Christ
taught the same truth, Blessed are the
pure in heart for they shall see God.' y
Just that constitutes the chief issue be-
tween Romanism and evangelic Christi
anity. If the Rev. Mr.. Harrison fully
means this he is Protestant. he denies
the unity OF a visible Church, the ex-
clusiveness of salvation etc. Now. if
he believes that all good men are saved
and that good men Can be found in tile
evengelic churches, why not let them
stay there?
Why seek to weaken and finally de-
stroy our established churches? If he
wishes to work Tor Christ among the
Colored people, why not 60 among
those who are unsaved? 10
There are always enough unsaved
people to afford any minister abundant
outlet for all his zeal aud powers.
When the Rev. Mr.. Harrison or any
other man undertakes to weaken and
undermine our churches he proves
himself e be most bitter enemy to
and our race.
If he wishes to debate the relative
merits of the churches he can nave the
opportunity, but if he wishes to work
for Christ and not against him, then let
him go out into the vineyard and seek
those pho are lost. have met some
who would not 60 to Protestant
Churches and have directed them to
