JOSEPH G. ScALLEr, the efficient and
popular cashier of the Irish-American
bank, has been urged by bis many
friends to enter the field as the Demo
cratic candidate for the office of city
treasurer. Mr.. Scallen, if honored by
his party with the nomination, will
strengthen the ticket very materially.
He is we'll aud favorably known by all
classes, having been resident of Mime
apolis for many years. His acquaint-
ance with financial affairs makes him the
proper kind of man for the city treasurer
ship. It is owing to Mr.. Scallen, in a
great measure, that the Catholic Build
ing and Loan Association bas proved
such success. He is splendid fnan-
cier and accountant and The IRISH
STANDvRD warmly seconds his nomina-
ton for this reponsible position.

CATHOLIC Columbian: The Republi-
cans of Indiana have nominated for Gov
ernor of that State the Rev. Ira J. Chase,
Protestant clergyman. Suppose that
the Catholic citizens Of Indiana who are
Republicans, should refuse to vote for
that gentleman because he is minister,
wouldn't they violate the spirit OF the
Constitution? Wouldn't they be con-
demned from Maine to California? OF
course they would The Hon. Mr.. Chase
has perfect right to be a preacher, if
his conscience calls him to that work,
and he has also every citizens privilege
to aspire to office. A clergyman should
not lose any of his rights of citizenship
for devoting his life to the propagation
Of religion. We hope and believe, there
fore, that not one citizen who would
give his vote to Governor Chase if he
we're not also minister, will refuse it to
him on that account

H ADLA1 3. STEVENSON, the Democratic ''
candidate for president, was the
Fourth OF July orator at Peoria, IN. He
reviewed the conditions which produced
the Declaration of Independence and
paid an eloquent tribute to George Wash
ington. In concluding magnificent
Grafton, Mr.. Stevenson referred to Ire
land as follows: "To-day, my fellow citi-
zens, enjoying liberty in the largest de-
gree in this favored land, our thoughts
turn to unfortunate Ireland, the ances-
trail home of SO many of our countrymen,
oppressed by merciless exactions, with
cruel landlordism the heritage of each
succeeding generation. Struggling
against odds for larger measure of free
do:n, Ireland challenges at once our
sympathy and our admiration. May we
not believe that the morning of brighter
day is soon to dawn on that gallant peo-
ple, and that the fruits of ths centuries
Of suffering, of oppression, and OF toll
will be to them individual freedom and
Home Rule"

The Irish World says it is not decent
for Chauncey M. Depew to endorse the
action of the Parnellite faction by at
tending the recent lecture Of John Il.
Redmond in New York, and by appear
ing some months ago as the principal
speaker at the Parnell memorial meeting
in the same city. While it is all right
for Americans to show sympathy for
Home Rule, it is most improper for them
to identify themselves with Irish faction
or dissension. When all Irishmen were
united on the Irish question, MIR. DepeW
did not consider it his duty to show his
sympathy by appearing and speaking at
meetings held to render succor to the
Irish cause The mischief done ny
Depew's intermeddling is illustrated by
the following. comment OF the London
Globe: MI. Depew is one Of President
Harrison's principal hackers, and, con-
sidering the Importance of the Irish vote,
he would hardly have attended Parnel-
lite meeting if he thought his action
would offend the bulk Of the American
irish. We may therefore conclude that
the American Irish are mostly Parnellite
sympathizers.

Bishop James McGolrick Appeals to the
Benevolent Public in His Time Of
Trouble.
To the Editor of the Irish Standard.
The complete destruction of the little
church which served as pro-cathedral,
with all it's contents, together with the
loss of the building used as residence
both by the bishop and priests, leaves us
no other resource than an appeal to the
benevolent and request for their kindly
aid III our time of trouble.
The diocese of Duluth has only few,
poor, struggling churches, barely able to
meet their own immediate needs, and
they of course can render but little as
sistance.
The insurance on the buildings barely
cover small portion of our loss by fire.
The organ, music, statuary, vestments,
altar, linens servers suits, vases, sane
tuary furniture, carpets, household goods
and many valuable school books have
been totally destroyed.
The generous citizens of Duluth have
in large numbers, regardless of creed, ex-
pressed their sympathy and their desire
to aid us in every way, offering hospital
ity and the use of hall for our religious
services.
ID all these we offer our sincere thanks
and in return for the contribu items Of
the charitable we give the best acknowl-
edgment we can make, namely, a remem-
brance in the holy sacrifice

Mrs CHARLOTTE 0. VAN ChEvE con-
tributes an article on the Indians to the
North and West and says that Catholic
mission schools are multiplying and the
bishops and priests are very much in
earnest to obtain an influence over the
Indian young men and maidens. She
says they are wise in doing SO and that
Presbyterians should be as yigilant in
bringing the Indian youth under the in
fluence Of Bible teaching and in liber-
ally supporting schools among them.
Mrs. Van Cleve is a noble woman who
has spent her life IN doing good, and she
is entirely free from sectarian bigotry.
She has always given credit to Catholics
for any good work they perform.

The North thinks that the Swedes will
never become Catholics, notwithstanding
the fact that they are literally ridden to
death by their Lutheran ministers in the
old country. The Swedes are gradually
growing more independent and less
bigoted as they learn how their fore
fathers we're outrageously deprived of the
TRUE faith by tyrannical kings, and now
that Catholic bishopric is established
in Stockholm they will have a better op-
portunity Of acquiring a correct knowl-
edge of the Catholic Church and it's
teachings. Human nature is the same in
Sweden as in other countries. It may
come to pass that Sweden in the future
will furnish noted converts to Catholicity
as England has done in the case of New
man, Manning, Wilberforce, Spencer and
others. The Swedes are not so obdurate
and stiff-necked as to remain in error
when the truth is made plain to them.
Some of them have already renounced
Latherianism and become fervent Catho-
lies.

SATURDAY, JULY 9, 1892.
THE BRITISH ELECTIONS.

The elections across the ocean began a
week ago and will continue to the middle
of this month. Gladstone opened the
campaign with an address to his Mid
lothian constituents and delivered pow
erful speech in Glasgow in favor of Irish
Home Rule. The elections in London
and other large English cities on Monday
resulted favorably for the Liberal party
and predictions we're made that Glad
stone would be returned by maj GRITTY
ranging from 100 to $50. But OF Tues
day there was an ebb of the tide and the
majority gained on the previous day was
lost In consequence of the registration
laws of London being unfavorable to the
working classes the Tories carried several
seats which were counted on by the Lib
erals. It was feared for time that the
Tories would be triumphant and even
some papers on this side of the Atlantic
gave up the fight for Home Rule as lost.
Later reports, however, show that thus
far the star of Liberalism and reform is in
the ascendant, and the conservatives them
selves now admit that Gladstone will get
into office by majority Of 40 votes. The
Scotch and Welsh are doing nobly and
so are the Irish with all the wrangling
that has prevailed among them. Up to
Thursday the Mccarthy party expected
to carry seventy seats i'll Ireland
while the Redmondites had carried only
four, The Tories and Redmondites
united in several places against the Ma
tionalists and we're utterly routed. The
Redmondites and Orangemen, however,
succeeded in defeating Thomas Sexton
in West Belfast, and Unionist has been
elected in his place. Sexton will get
seat in northeast Cork, as he is too val
liable man to be out of parliament in
the next session. Large votes are being
cast throughout the United Kingdom,
and at present writing there is every in
dication Of victory for Gladstone. The
total Liberal gains on Thursday we're IS,
while the gains of the government
we're Is. Justin Mccarthy and John
Morley's colleague are among the de-
feated candidates.
