NUN OF KENMARE" ABsO0NDED

A recent despatch from the East says
that the Nun of Kenmare' is missing,
and that before she left she secured a
large number OF orders for her book
which she recently wrote on the So
called abuses in the Catholic Church,
and that none of the orders have been
filed, though the money was paid on
almost every order. These who stood
by Miss Cusack since she left the Cath
olic Church are very much disgusted
with her latest pranks and have evident
" found out that she was far from
being the good woman she pretended to
be, They have at last found out thai
she is fraud and are forced to admit
that she was in the business OF denoun-
cling the Catholic Church for the money
there was in it. How we'll she ''pulled
the wool' over these fanatics eyes need
not be commented on here. Rev.
.Golighty" however seeing the predi-
cament he and other warm admirers Of
the ex nun were in. came to the front
with the statement that he received a
letter from her. dated May 10. in which
she adroitly refrained from touching
her reported absence from Philadelphia,
but dwelled on her opinion of the causes
that led Rev. MIR. Martin, Canadian
ex priest, to return to the Catholic
Church. We doubt very much whether
Mr.. Morrill, ever received such a letter,
because his public utterances OF mat
tiers of smaller Importance were found
to be anything but correct. We are

when he wilfully falsifies, particularly

letter received from him some time prior
to that asking fo7 passes on the motor
line. We take no stock whatever in his
statement OF having received letter
from Miss Cusack. and believe that he
told the story because he thought he

BALrouR has found ont the cause OF
50 much poverty in Ireland. In the
House Of Commons q few evenings ago
he said that Irishmen marry too Young
and have too many children. Here IS
what he said: 1.-The Irish members have
made many speeches throughout Ire
land, but have they ever urged the in
expediencv and unwisdom Of ear'v mar
riages? Mr.. DILLON has thrown the
whole blame for the large West coast
population upon the landlords. Some
responsibility for their having children
surely rests on the parents.' Balfour
would have the Irish parents commit
infanticide. as remedy for their pres
emit troubles. What q fine mOralist Mr..
Balfour is!

CLERGY AND LAITY.

Our esteemed contemporary the New
York Freeman's Journal in a late issue
ascribes all the evils Of the church to
''ambitious prelates." ''recreant epis-
copacy." "pliant tools of the king"
ETC., and all this because the cable an
nounced the suspension OF the Arch
bishop of Naples. According to our
dogmat1c contemporary suspensions Of
Archbishops are "no uncommon pro
ceeding" in the history Of the Catholic
Church and this strange announcement
is made .'for the benefit Of our Protes-
tant contemporaries" It is verv hard
to see Of what possible benefit such a
remarkable piece of information could
be to our Protestant contemporary even
we're it true. 1t strikes us however that
there Is very little truth in it and that
it Is very Uncommon proceeding" to
suspend an Archbishop from his func-
tioDs. A few remarkable cases in
nineteen centuries will not make such
an act common proceeding. Equally
incorrect is the general broad saving
..that heTesies and schisms do not spring
from the laity Are not kings and
counts and parliament arlans '.laymen?'

MERRIAM WILL BE R6N0M1NATED

AGhhl lam W 411 O1 hINVM4N "A A1A''
Governor w. r Merriam will be re.
dominated in the coming Republican
state convention. This is pretty certain
from present indications, and unless an
unexpected cyclone comts from his op-
ponents in the convention. there will
be no other name mentioned for that
office. Gov. Merriam has been hard at
work for some time getting his fences
in position, and birds-eye view of the
situation now clearly outlines the field
for Merriam. 1t was thought that ex
Governor McGill would be candidate
again, but Merriam has so completely
secured everything in sight that Nc
Gill could not possibly come near get
ting The required NUMBER Of votes.
Merriam S strongest political opponents
admit that there's not strength enough
in the Republican party of the state to
day opposed to Merriam to defeat him.
If that is the case, and we believe it is,
the fight Oh the Republican side Of the
house for the gubernatorial nomination
will be very quiet affair. Some. how
ever, claim that Merriam will not find
the task of s curing re nomination 50
easy as his friends suppose. But this is
all talk. When such men as Langdon
and Fletcher. who fought him bitterly
Iwo years ago, are found on the gov
errors political staff, the result is not
difficult to determine. This means. OF
course, that the greater number of the
men who opposed the governors nomi-
nation two years ago will be the first
to propose him for denomination.
Besides, that free trade speech of his
pleased the farmers very much, and but
little if any opposition can be expected
from that source. Gov. Merriam has
been very conservative officer. and has
played his cards as we'll, If not better,
than any of his predecessors. The re
suit Of the election cannot Of course be
foreseen so early. 1t all depends on
whom the Democrats no inmate. Some
think that the country wants change

a PHILADELPHIA despatch says that
Grand Master Workman Powdefly con
TEMPLATES the organization Of new

the political situation. DIR. Powderly
saws: 1.-THE question, why don't the
recognized officers of the various labor
organizations meet, organize party
and put ticket In the field?' is often
asked bv nv corr respondents. They see
from the work that has been done by
the knights of Labor during the past
few years that radical reforms are
necessary. They have had their eyes
opened, and all at once want to rush
into the field as a p trty. The order of
the Knights Of Labor. il good for
nothing else, has proved itself to be
very useful In watching the doiDgs, un-
doings and shortcomings of political
parties. Ii We form the order like a
party. who will watch us2 To my mind
the only plan of arriving at safe c0nclu-
siOns and meeting the wants of the
people is for some forty or fifty leading
reformers. and men who have given
thought to the co-industrial affairs
of the nation, to come together at an
early day. discuss the whole field of
reform, hear the views Of men from all
parts of the country. and then draw up
al address to the people Of the United
States, briefly stating the exact posi-
ton of the movement at the present
dav. The address should go out in the
form of an indictment against prevail
ing wrongs under the mantle Of par.
tisanship. Without referring to these
wrongs just at present, it would seem
to me that the address should contain
something like this: s'All reforms.

in the intelligence of the people. That
measure which is not backed up by the
sentiment of the people is doomed to
failure. Past efforts to turn the tide OF
political affairs into a broader and purer
current have failed because OF the in
difference of the citizens. They were
not consulted in the formation of past
political circles, and although those
who took the, lead were sincere aud
honest they were not understood as
having the right to speak for all the
people. We feel that between the PEG
pie and their leaders there should be no
secrets, perfect confidence should pre-
vail, and to that end we decline to
inaugurate a movement having for It's
object the formation OF a new party.
We refer the whole matter to the people
for action and submit this declaration

themselves. Who stand out for Cath

Who support Catholic literature

clergy. Yet there ia no reason why a
Catholic layman would not have these
things at heart lust as much it not more
than Catholic clergyman. On the
other hand who frowD down the Cath
Ollie schools. discourage Catholic pro-
jects, bring all their influence to bear
so abrogate the wise laws Of the Church,
withstand any reform that is not IN the
letter of their Faith, although it is
manifestlv within its spirit? It is the
laity. People do not follow heresles,
when they are net predlsposed to do so.
There is little danger of corrupt clergy
where the people keep the command
ments. receive the rites of their Church
in Catholic spirit and furnish worthy
candidates for Holy Orders But where
the sacraments are neglected and the
Catholic Faith dishonored by its ad
herents, as it was in all countries which
fell into heresy, it was punishment
from Heaven that the clergy became
discouraged and took up the spirit OF
their times and thus all were lost to the
Faith. Faith is a gift of God. possessed
