ARCHBISHOP IRELAND'S VCTORH

The Papal approval of Archbishop Ircands
so-calcd faribault- saltwater plan OF parochial
schools, though guarded, is a great victory Tor
that enlightened prclatc and for the liberals III
the American Catholic Church, Of whom he Is
conceded 10 be the foremost leader. The his
tory of this now celebrated case is in brief as
follows: a few months ago Father Coury,
Roman Catholic priest Of Faribault, Mimi,
with the full approval of Archbishop Ireland
wrote a letter TO the local Board OF Education
offering To surrender his parochlal school To
the full control of the Board on the sole con-
dition that the members of the Dominican
Teaching Order who were its teachers, should
be retained. In all things they were to submit
themselves to the authority of the Board. and
were 10 impart no religious instruction during
the regular sessions OF the school. The Board
accepted the offer on the conditions named, and
the parochial school henceforth became full
ncdgcd public school, though, of course, both
its teachers and pupils were members of the
Roman Catholic Church. Soon afcrward
somewhat similar arrangement was adopted at
saltwater. After the plan had been put in
operation State Superintendent d. l.. Kchle
visited the FaribauIt school. and thus expressed
himself IN rtPdru 10 IL
feel warranted I'm expressing to the public my
tire confidence that The Board have acted ntelgcnty
and In no Way to compromise their authority IA, pub
NG officer. that they have used their independent and
best Judgment in the choice OF teachers In grading and
promoting pupils and that they determined b

Is being conducted in such spirit Of consideration
that IT, at tho end Of the year. the Catholics conclude
TO r,.sumc the education OF their children IL will
be- done without disturbing the friendly relations OF
mutual re poet that prevail
Nevertheless, an cutlery was at once raised
by both Protcstants and Catholics. The former
declared that there must be an African in
the wood pile' somewhere, and that in some
unexplained way the scheme was an insidious
attempt to undermine the public-school system
Of the country. Some color was lent to this
theory by the opinion Of many disntcrestcd
educators that the local Board acted beyond its
powers in agreeing To retain certain teachers
Fair minded Professionals, however, conceded
that Father COury and Archbishop Ireland
acted in entire good faith in the matter, and
that their only object was to settle a vcxed
problem in Il way satisfactory to both Catholics
and Protestants. In proof of this they pointed
to the generosity Of the concessions made by

L CHANCE FOR A RECORD.

The Democratic leaders of the House seem
disposed TO take full advantage of the mo-
mentary suspension of the Navigation laws In
favor of the Inman line. The Republican Sen
ate and the President have consented TO open
the door so as to let in the City of Paris and
the City of New-York to the privileges OF
American registry. Then it was proposed to
close it quickly before there could be time to
admit any other free ships This does not suit
the purposes of radical Free Traders in the
House Mr. Fhhian has already obtained for
his Free Ship bill favorable report from the
Committee on Commercial Marine and Fish
cries, and he is now striving to secure three
DAYS in June for the passage of the measure.
What he desires is to lift the door from its
hinges so as to open the coastwise and internal
navigation trade to foreign-built craft. The
House may pass his bill, but it will not reach
the President while the Republicans have con-
troll of the Senate; or if it does, it will be
vetoed There is no immediate prospect of the
enactment of this ruinous and reckless free
ship legislation. All that the Democrats of
the House can do is to make record for their
side as Free-Trade party committed to the
support of foreign interests.
Let us contrast for moment the lnman and
Fithian bills. The Inman bill prohibits the
employment of the City of Paris and the City
of New-Yorl1 in the coastwiSe trade provides
for the construction of an equivalent tonnage
in American shipyards, and imparts a new i'm
pet,,s TO the shipbuilding interests of the coun-
try The Fithian bill opens both the coastwise
and the lake and river carrying trade to for
eign built ships, and thereby strikes down the
shpbuilding interests of the seaboard and the
interior. One transfers to the American flag
two foreign-built steamers upon the assurance
that the fleet of powerful transatlantic line
will henceforth be built in the shipyards of the
Nation. The other offers American registry
TO any and every foreign built hulk whose own
ers may apply for it. 1t menaces National
shipbuilding interests with paralysis and ruin
1t enables foreign vesselowners to transfer
their cheaply built fleets to American waters
and to Oyerrun our coasting and lake traffic, as
well as to monopolize our foreign carrying
trade.
If the Democratic leaders of the House de-
sire to make such an issue as this for their
party on the eve of the Presidential election
certainly Republicans have no cause for com
plant The Fithian bill cannot become law
this year. So much is plain. All that the
Democratic leaders can succeed in doing is to
place their party in an attitude Of uncompro.
