THE NEXT CONVENTION.
An effort will be made at tile Grand Council to
have tile next annual convention OF the Institute
held at Monterey. Only for the expressed wish
of the Archbishop III Oakland year ago IT Is
quite probable that this session would be at Mon
lefey and not in this city. There are many
reasons advanced in favor of HE old historical
CITY, ITS associations and Catholic history, its
beauty and fame as a summer resort. and also
the Old Mission Calmelo aud the new Catholic
summer resort OF Carmel City, between Padre
Serra's picturesque old church aud the ocean.
The Monterey delegates VIII make a fight for
the Grand Council and it is believed very sue
eessfu one. and they offer as an inducement
special railroad privileges, a royal welcome OF
the society town and good time generally. A
hence The monument Padre Sierra will he
unveiled Oh the beach as near as possible TO the
spot where the Franciscan missionary first trod
on California soil and planted The cross of his
faith.
Mrs. Stanford, through whose mmiGcence the
monument Is being designed, Will be asked as a
favor the society to the unwilling OF the
statue until the Institute could be present. and the
event would be The occasion OF a great Stale eel
ebratinn. Trains would be run from all points
at special rates for the event. and gathering
such as was never dreamd of IN the quiet town
OF Monterey would be there 10 participate In
the days celebration and give the occasion I'M
wonted eclat. Carmel City would then besIow
its freedom on the delegates and visiting brothers
OF the Young Mems Institute.
LETTER FROM OREGON.
member of the Young Mems Institute re-
ceived a letter yesterday from his Grace Arch
bishop Gross OF Oregon regarding the order. 1t
is as follows:
CoRNucoPIA (oregon). July 26, 1890.
have been engaged for several weeks in the ar
duous duties OF visiting the many country missions
of my diocese, hence my delay In answering your
note.
/ take great pleasure recommending the Young
Mems Institute IL has the noble object in view OF
bringing together our Catholic young that
they may advance In good culture In the knowledge
and practice OF holy religion, and at the time
have an opportunity to enjoy those innocent reerea
tons which are so necessary TO US ALL 1t is not
necessary to state that just In age the
associating together of the young men Is a
remarkable feature. What such associations for our
Catholic Young man have done in Germany. Belgi
uin and Holland, have had myself the pleasure of
witnessing while visiting these countries. And
nothing, In my humble opinion. is such cause of
the infdel rule in France as the want of organza
ton and defined discipline among the Catholic
men in that beautiful land
l am extremely gratifed to notice the spread of
archdiocese is entirely animated with loyal obed
to holy church, and has always displayed a
every sense of tine word and pray God grant thatit
