The following are the chief causes OF this
desrrtion on the part 81 the Catholic forces:
First-Tne lack Of su efficient protection for
the emigrants n the time OF their departure
from home during their voyage and ON their

After speaking of the great influence
Of the bishops the memorial says:
UuOn this question depends the solution
of the greatest problem Of the pre- sent times.
the problem Of the immigration Of nations
First, the salvation of souls IL herein con
cerned. Bishops VINO are strangers to the
spirit, character. habits aud customs oil
other nations C in not i'm the required meas
ure adopt their virtues and knowledge and
appreciate and efectualiy attend to the
wants Of those nations Again the con
cord between the different nLfions II AT
fc ted by this question. II the c~piscopstc bu
handed over almost exclusively tn one single
nationality. To the defriment of othcr-. n feel
ing Of uneasinr.s Of general discomfort -
created among these last, q feeling which
assumes the proportions OF jealous national
r.vairics. The want Of justice Is as pressing
ms the want of bread. IL - desired that con
cord and harmony reign among the different
nations that go To- make up the churches oil
the United States. Nothing IL more dcsir-
able, nothing more essential The sole and
only way TO attain this end 10 to give to
every one OF these nations bishops of their
own, bishops belonging to each. who will
represent their respective nations in the
episcopal body. Just as these nations are
represented among the parochiai clergy and
among the faithful
As the dioc' scs are formed Of Catholics oi
different nationalitirs there is no question
