The London Catholic Record in dis
cussing the wants Of Catholics in On
tarlo saws: We need scarcely say that
Catholics in this Province, as well as IN
every other, seek no special privilege Of
any kind. They want to be treated
exactly as all other classes of the com
munity-they desire to live at peace
with their Protestant nelghbors, trans
acting business and holding social
intercourse with them in the good old
way which prevailed before the poison
of blgotry was imported from over the
ocean. and its hateful roots transplant
ed ia the new country-tEey desire to
deal out measure for measure Of justice,
liberalitY, friendship, charity, and all
manner of Christian kindliness- and
they long for the dav-as every good
man should-when we can all meet as
the citizens Of a free and happy and
united country, having buried once
and forever all cause of division and
enmity, moving onward shoulder to
shoulder, and vieing one with the other
in the grand and blessed work ct de-
veloplng and identifying and enrlching
this magnificent country whicha beni
fcent Providence has placed in our
keeping.

BosToN Pilot: And now O'Donovan
Rossa is on trial in New York, for
libelling man named P.S. Cassidy, by
calling him IAN English Spy" We
know nothing about Cassidy; but if the
testimony of one Of the witnesses,
named Quinn, is true, Rossa's libel was
not so far wrong. This witness was
asked: "Why do you think Cassidy
is an English spy?'' And he startled
and amazed the court by his reply:
because he tried to hire me to go to
England and get a dynamite con-
spiracy." This is just the kind of work
that English spies are doing in this
country and in Ireland; and if .Rossa's
trial does no other good it will not be
fruitless on account Of this shrewd and
significant answer.-A later account
says that Rosa has been found guilty.
Well, he was found guilty. before, and
there he is still, poor old man.

ment that an effort is being, made and
will be kept up until the polls close on
election day next November, to legislate
the present municipal court judges out
of Office. The reasons assigned for this
course on the part Of the politicians by
the Globe are because of the one-slded
way justice is being dealt out there
without doubt. the criminal depart
ment. The Globe, we presume, knows
what it is talking about-lt generally

against the erring divine were I'M
morality and misrepresentation Of the
church funds. Rev Frank Height of
that city conducted the examination
and was assisted by several clergymsn
from abroad. Collins was found guilty
OF the above named offenses and sus
pended from the M. E. church pending
the meeting of the West Wisconsin con-
ference next fall, when he will have a
final church trial. Would it not be
better for Minister Burgess of this city
to give some money to the education of
some of the Methodist ministers in the
principles OF honesty and morality in
stead Of the Catholics, as he suggested
some time ago.

LAKE Superior Catholic: In Satur-
days issue Of the Industrial Age, Bishop
MEG olrick Is quoted as saving that he
was IN favor of the Wisconsin Bennett
school law. We do not know where
the Age obtained It's information, but
we do know it did not emanate from the
Bishop. Recently the Minneapolis
Tribune contained what purported to
be an interview with Bishop Nc olrick.
in which he is made to say that he
favored the law. 1t is remarkable with
what audacitY the Tribune can construe
the Bishop to say what he did not. In
speaking with the Bishop he stated he
was in favor Of teaching English in all
the schools. and it is right. but he does
not uphold the body Of the law on
account pitts motive being bad in itself.

BALFOUR's LAND BULL.

Balfour's land bill will pass the Com
mons without a doubt. While the ma
ioritY will be small, it will be enough to
see the bill safely committed to the care
Of the lords. What the fate Of the bill
will be there Of course we cannot say,
but from the way that these titled arts.
tocrats speak of it, it will not lose any
of it's good points-go od from landlord
standpoint. Like many other bills that
the Tory government Of England has
passed purporting to regulate Irish af-
fairs, it will be dead letter. The Irish
people have paid for their land thous-
and times more than what it is worth,
and they Will not now accept any half
way measure which compels them to
pay enormous sums to get title to the
land. The Irish people are generous,
it is true, but they do not wish to give
all to the landlords and get nothing.
They are more generous than the land
lords. The latter would drive out the
tenants without a penny. while the ten
ants would have the landlords paid a
reasonable amount for the land and
give them chance to start life we'll.
There is no reason why the Irish people
should be made to suffer for the land
lords sins. If the latter have spent all
their money and not looked out for a
'swet day. it is their own fault, and no
one is to blame but themselves. For
this reckless living the Irish people are
now going to be forced to pay. The bill
as prepared, rather introduced by Bal
four. is necessarily bad because the
landlords have approved Of it. Any
ching that the Irish landlords approve
of can have but little good in it for the
tenants. The house of commons is
wasting much valuable time in discuss
inc this useless measure, money as we'll
as time could be saved by simply waste
basketing the whole matter. It will
fail to accomplish what 1t was intended
to do, and failing IN that it will accom-
pllsh nothing. The Tories think that
the Irish people are tired of agitation,
and are ready to accept almost any
settlement Of the land question. But
IN this they are mistaken. The Irish
people at home will never cease fighting
until landl0rdism is abolished, and a
local government established in College
Green.

THE Chicago Citizen commenting on
President F'itzgerald's conduct in refu-
sing to call convention Of the Irish
National League in America says:
SIT is rather strange that the irish
National element Of America, once SO
proudly independent Of old country
dictatiou, should now hesitate to do
anything in the shape of required home
legislation without first obtaining the
permission of Mr.. Parnell. The latter
has, on several occasions, shown him
self utterly Indifferent to lrish.Amer
lean sentiment. but meyer to Irish
American aid. He may be right, from
his standpoint, whatever it is; but why
should President Fitzgerald sneeze only
when ParneIl takes snuff! Why does
not President Fitzgerald go ahead with
his part of the business and leave Mr..
Parnell severely alone. There is no
need for the Irish National League of
America to do anything hostile to Mr..
Parnel]'s policy of peace, etcetera, but
it should not 20 on it's knees to him or
any other British subject. it ought to
be a free and independent organization,
acting only within American law, in
this free and independent country. y
We think the Citizen takes rather a
personal view Of the situation and be.
lieve as Mr.. Fitzgerald does. that no
convention should be held unless Mr..
Parnell or the Irish parliamentary
party of which he is the head
should desire 1T. If the American
league desires to 20 ahead and work
Independently Of the home league, it
can do So. But We believe that both
should work in harmony and as Mr..
Parnell knows better than we. what
are for the best interests of ireland we
believe he should be consulted and his
advice followed.

CAPITAL AND. LABOR.

Minneapolis and st. Paul have so far
fortunately escaped the ends of gen
eral strike among their skilled laboring
classes. While Chicago and some East
ern cities are all torn up over a general
turning out Of trades unions, the Twin
cities have been more or less undis-
turbed. The only strike of any i'm
portance that occurred in Minneapolis
this season was the plumbers strike.
This however did not last long. Both
sides were willing to inset each other
half way, and thus the troubles that
threatened to spread. were overcome.
This is the proper way to do. When
ever there is any difference Of opinion
between employers and employees
neither should take the POSITION that
they cannot consistently arbitrate. The
employer must not always consider that
his position is the proper one. neither
must the employee believe that his is alb
solutely correct. Differences may arise
from time to- time between both, but
before any strike is ordered everything
possible should be done to compromise
matters. It is much easier very often,
for the employe to get! All increase Of
! wages or some other privilege before
striking than It is afterwards. But
when all resources looking towards q
settlement. or an unde rstsndieg are ex-
l1austed. the employee ofs course must
