set forth by the editor OF the Penwlpe.
That however makes no difference to
this editor. He has q certain line Of
attack to follow, and he must follow
that OF 90 under. The more false state
ments he can crowd into his paper re
fecting on Catholics, the better will he
have done his duty, to all appearances.
II the editor of the Penwipe will please
give the authority on which he bases
the above statement, we would be glad
to see it. Archbishop Ireland said he
deplored the necessity Of parochial
schools. and expressed wish that the
existing obstacles to Catholics patron
Hing these schools, would soon be re-
moved. The obstacles he referred to
were a lack Of religious instruction in
the schools. But this is not enough for
the editor of the Penwipe. He knows
more about the Catholic Church and it's
teachings apparently than Archbishop
ireland, but his wild statements should
be taken with several grains of salt.
Poor fellow he does not know what he
is talking about.

SATURDAY, AUGUST %, 1890
rHE MINNEAPOLIS EXPOSITION

The Minneapolis Exposition which
will open August ~. and close October
4, bids fair to be the most successful one
ever held in this city. Special features
have been secured which are of such a
high character as to ensure it's success.
No such array of attractions have ever
before been offered for such low price
of admission. Prominent among the
special features is the Edison electrical
exhibit as made at the Paris Exposition
in 1889. There it was one Of the most
important attractions and ast0nlshed
the crowds Of spectators who witnessed
its wonders. There are talking dolls,
monographs, ia electric railways, tele-
phones and telegraphs in the most i'm
proved patents. In addition a tower Of
light 20 feet high and covered with 1900
incandescent lamps, will form the most
magnificent lighting spectacle ever seen
anywhere. The Edison men who have
superintendent sits construction say
shat 1t cannot be adequately described
with words, 80 gorgeous will be the
scene. And then surroundingthe tower
Of light will be native waterfalls and an
aquatic garden most beautiful to be-
hold. The Edison exhibit alone Will be
sure to draw large and interesting
crowds. Thefart exhibit which has in
the past been made a special feature
will not be lacking this year, but the
collection which has been secured Is en-
tirely new andtwas brought by a special
commissioner from the great galleries
OF Europe at an enormous expense.
Mot one of the pictures to be seen there
this wear was in the gallery last season,
Yank Hoe and Madame Omene the
magicions sand sjugglers who are now

Pains great spectacle, Last Days OF
Pompeii'' will be produced in a separate
enclosure upon the river bank. An
amphitheater is being built with seat

X SENATORS WashburD and Davis have
at last succeeded in getting an appro-
priation of 5000 900 for continuing the
improvements at the $780," and $780,
600 for the Hay lake channel. This is
a very small appropriation for the i'm
provements necessary at the $500, but
it is more than probable that a similar
amount if not more will be appropriated
when this has been expended. No one,
who has not visited. Sault Ste. Marie,
can form any idea Of the amount of
shipping that is done there during the
summer season. A description of the
place could be given, and an estimate
of the member of vessels that pass
through the locks every day made, but
that would fall very short of describing
the exact condition of affairs. There
are vessels passing through the locks
every minute in the day and night
during the season Of navigation, and it
is very important that better facilities
than what are there now for accom- no
dating this increasing commerce should
be provided as soon as possible. The
recent bursting of a valve in one of
these locks cost the boat owners who
use that canal $500 600. To say that
another lock should be put in to provide
against such accidents IN future, is
nothing but stating what is absolutely
correct. The shipping trade has doubled
there in the past two years, and il. 1t
continues to Increase in the same pro-
portion, it will be but short time
when the present canal will have more
to do than it can Accommodate.

there q general election does not occur
90 often as here. The Irish parliament
AIRY party are hopeful ct getting . liberal
government at the next election, and
that means the introdn ction Of Home
Rule measure in the House OF Commons
for lreland's benefit. For this coming
battle the Irish people, in the face Of
the pending potato famine, will be very
poorly prepared to fight. T0rv money
and influence. In some parts Of Ire
land, we are told that the potato crop
has been SO bad that the crop will all be
consumed before October /. This is
not a very pleasant outlook for our peo-
pie at home, and a poor basis on which
to withstand the uncertainties Of
general election which must come very
soon. Now what is going to be the re-
suit Of this potato crop failure? Are we
going to see repetition Of the terrible
suffering and death of AZ? It Is to be
hoped not. And we in this land Of
plenty should not allow it under any
circumstances. If the British govern
ment. devoid of all sense of feeling for
our people, refuses to take action and
make provision whereby our people will
be furnished the necessaries of life, the
whole civilized world should raise it's
voice loud enough to be heard In the
centre chambers of Windsor Castle. "A
few days ago when this matter was
brought up in the House of Commons
by one of the Irish members, Mr.. Bal
four had the cheek to say that he did
not think the condition of the crops in
Ireland as had as reported. and even if
they were, the relief boards in the diff
ferent districts were well able to take
care of all the needy ones. This is
about the way we would expect Balfour
to treat this subject. AS these boards
receive no aid from the government,
but are maintained by the taxpayers Of
their respective districts, how can they
render aid in all cases where such is
necessary it the crops are failure
there? Balfour knows this as we'll as
we. but it would keep the party Of
which he is a member if such 1nlsfor-
tune as famine should overtake the
Irish people. They would nave no time
to attend to national matters, and would
fall an easy prev to the Tory and his
monetary influence. One thing the
British government could not do that it
did forty-three years ago. 1t could not
refuse to allow American aid to be de-
livered to the Irish people. The present
government OF Great b riCain is no more
human than the one of that time, but
times have changed, and instead Of
dumping the American donations into.

the duty, and allow the unfortunate
people of Ireland to die by the roadside,
they would be forced to admit such
generous aid free of duty. Forty years
ago America was not in the position to
talk to England that she is to-day. But
let us hope that the worst has been
published; that the harvest season will
bring JOY aud gladness to Irish homes.
and not sorrow and despair, and if it IS
necessary to help our friends at home,
let us be prepared to do so with will.
