Gently met in St. Paul, is being vigorously
attacked by the religious press of this
state Numerous Roman Catholic jour
mails have taken exception TO it, and yes
terday a Roman Catholic newspaper of
this city came out with a three column
article written by Rev. p Abellen, of Mil

criticises the archbishop for stating in his
address that he WAS the friend and advo-
cate of state schools.
No Union of schools.
Rev. Abellen bitterly repudiated the
idea of uniting the state and parochial
schools, and intimated that the latter
must forever remain separate from the
former. The Rev. Mr.. Abellen's remarks
have created considerable discussion
among Roman Catholics in the city, many
of whom think that the theories of Arch.

dress are more consistent and plausible
than the vi.ws set forth in the recent

is not the Suns fault if it has seen

Gov. HIPS Arrangement.

Gov. Hill made Il strong but not
an eXtravagant statement when he
said in his Canton (Ohio) speech
that "the animating motive" of the
Republican party in the fifty-frst
Congress has been "the perpetual
tion of its own power" and added:
at has cared nothing for the Con-
stitution, nothing for the Treasury,
nothing for the people. Its chief
desire has been to get such firm
grip or control of Government that
for generations to come it's polite
ians may feed upon the spoils of
power"
This is severe arraignment, but
it is justified at every point by the
facts. This Congress has legislated
mining camps into the Union as
States when their population was
less than that of an ordinary AS
sembly district, simply to secure
additional congressman, senators
and electoral votes for themselves.
1t has excluded other Territories
of larger population merely because
they are Democratic.
1t has planned to change the ira
ditions of century in order to Sc
cure for partisan agents of the
Federal Administration the con-
troll of Congressional elections.
1t has squandered the surplus
and mortgaged the National in
come for generations to come in
order to secure for Il party the pur-
chased support of beneficiaries.
1t has passed a monstrous tariff
bill which taxes the people enor-
upon the necessaries of life,
and imposes a well-nigh fatal re-
upon commerce by way of
securing its alliance with the mo-
noplies and moneyed interests of
the country.
It's entire course has been dicta-
ted, as Gov. Hill says, by an over
desire to retain its hold
upon power, regardless of the act
lal will of the people. In its search
for means to that end it has stop
ped at no device, however desper-
lte. Its record is the issue.-N Y.
