81. PAUL, June 4.-Since the publication

bishop Ireland has had many kilograms
and letters of endorsement of his views.
Today. in an interview with an Associated

the subject. He says,
As the details OF the plot are unfolded the
indignation of Americans, Catholic or Protestant
cannos but grow in intensity. The whole pro-
ceeding Is an insult to American nationalism.

Imagine America to be a sort OF African Congo,

strange news, indeed, for American ears to hear,
that the Austrian and Prussian ambassadors in
Rome have been instructed by their home gov
ernment to bring to bear upon Americans their
influence In aid OF Herr Cahensly's plan Of
campaign.
The contagion spreads to an extent that CON-

province OF Quebec, q colony OF England. run

OF New York. We can easily picture the further
extension OF this foreign ambition to rule
Catholic affairs in America, and in
q few years the ecclesiastical map of
the country would show the fngerings of
every foreign principality whose emigrants
choose to touch our shores. This attack of for
eignism upon the church in America, however,
is killed from its own audacity. So long as it
worked stealthily, by secret embassies and back
door entrances, it was dangerous and was doing
harm. But 1t has now entered into open COM

A GORGEOUS EXHIBITION.

The great throng of people at the
opening of the citrus fair last night fully
appreciated one of the most magnificent
sights ever presented to view anywhere.
There was nothing but words of enco-
MUM from them, and not few greeted
the grand display with outbursts of
warm enthusiasm. 1t would indeed be
difficult for the most stolid nature not
TO be aroused to an exuberance OF ad-
miration at the splendid and strikingly
beautiful exhibits that cover the vast
space of Hazards Pavilion. The lines
of grace and beauty that are wrought in
citrus fruits give evidence of the finest
artistic taste on the part OF those who
conceived and executed the many beau
tiful exhibits that grace the fair. We
shall not here select any individual ex-
hibit for praise; but we shall say that
the ensemble OF the whole display is
one of the most charming pictures the
eye could rest upon. 1t is difficult to
conceive how the effects of the whole
exhibition could be heightened, and it
would be impossible to suggest how any
improvement could be made of the gen.
eral arrangement and combination OF
the striking aggregation of colors pro-
duced from the setting of the gorgeous
fruits.
The attractions of this unique exhi-
bition will necessarily draw to this i'm
portant industry the earnest attention
of every stranger who visits it. At the
present time there are thousands of peo-
pie here from the eastern states. As
mere sojourners they cannot but be in
terested in SO beautiful and novel an ex-
hibition and doubtless some of them
may SO far be carried away with the
attractiveness of an industry which is
susceptible of such esthetic effects into
close study of its profits and possibili-
ties. These will at least become factors
in disseminating kind of information
which cannot but be immensely bene-
fetal to Southern California. We can
not transport the exhibition to Chicago,
New York, Philadelphia and Boston
| but we can send, by these friendly mes
sengers, the word OF its beauty and
value to all these great centers.
Through their eyes it will be seen by
thousands of people abroad, and a de-
sire to participate in the great promise
of so fine an industry will be thus COM
municated to many ardent spirits who
will in the hereafter make their mark
in the actual production of citrus fruits
in our favored section.

THE Express objects to the expression
"the upper house of congress" and pro-
nounces it a snobbish phrase. This
criticism is very severe, as many per-
sons OF decidedly Democratic tastes have
been in the habit of using the words.
1t is difficult to select phrase exactly
descriptive of TIE two bodies. The
original intention of the constitution
was to make the senators the represent
atives of the sovereignty OF the states,
while the members OF the more numer-
ous branch of congress were the direct
representatives of the people. Any one
who has ever spent few months in
Washington would leave that city with
the impression that if it is not the
upper house" OF congress the senate is
certainly very ''uppish' house. 1t is
doubtful if the ear of Russia puts on
as much port and consequence as the
average United States senator when he
gets into congressional marble halls.
TO reach him when in the sacred re-
cesses of his committee rooms is task
as difficult as Stanley found it to make

party consisting of Councilmen AL
word, Innes, McGarry, Tufts, Nickel,
Rhodes, Reese, President Bonsall, City
Engineer Dockweiler, Deputy Engineer
Flynn, Street Superintendent Hutchin-
son, and Mr.. Howard, of the firm of
Howard 4 Bixby, journeyed to the
ocean at point between Redondo
Beach and Ballona yesterday morning.
The route examined is what is known
as the Centinela sewer route.
From the investigation of the gentle
men the city seems to be master of the
situation, as all the land owners along
this proposed route are anxious to OBJ
tain the sewage. A good general idea
was obtained as to what would be the
best alignment to the sea. From the in
formation gained by the inspectors, the
sewer can be constructed very cheaply,
as good deal OF it can be run in open
ditch. Several routes will be investi-
gated, however, so as to secure the most
acreage that can be irrigated with the
sewage.
The general opinion seemed to be that
the city should secure right of way to
the ocean, so that in case the lands did
not require sewage in certain months
in the year 1t could be emptied in the
ocean.

How Colds Are Cured in Alaska.

Some of the readers of the HERALD

so, the following extract from recent

neau. Alaska, will interest them. He
says: "Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
is selling better than ever. 1t is harder
to get into the boxes than to sci! the

Coon's sales were rather light Tor the
first year he handled this medicine, but
have increased each year as the people
there become better acquainted with its
valuable properties, until it is now the

coughs and colds. which shows that real
merit is as much appreciated in the far
north as at home, and in time the best
