THE PROVIDENCE News has made the prop
osition TO the workingmen among its readers
that they select one of their number TO spend
a couple of months abroad during the coming
summer to travel, study the labor situation in
western Europe and tell them about his ex-
periences. This Is the most sensible form that
the voting-contest fad has yet taken.

closures shows where the work begins,
and the arrows show where the arm
fuls of corn are to be taken. If five
hills are too heavy or bulky for one
arm load. double trips can be made for
the four-corner Enclosures.
When the shocks are finished, exact
ly nine hills stand in each corner of the
shocker, making the four quarters of
the same size so there will be no tend
ency for the shock to lean in any direc-
ton. BY this plan the operator, as he
deposits his last load, is at A, just
where he began, and at just the right
place for tying the shock, removing the
stick and carrying the shocker forward
to the next place for work.

quired, no hesitancy of action and a

just referred to. Nobili gained the
confidence of the Hindoos by assuming
the dress and manners Of Brahmin
and by strictly respecting the prejudiees
Of caste. The result was complete sue
cess in his mission. Ricci spent twenty
years in China, and actually had SAVIOR
faire enough To gain the friendship of
the emperor, whose protection enabled
him to extend his labors. This period
was also marked by the troubles of the
order in Venice and in England. 1t was
expelled from the former, and in the
latter country many members were ex-
ecuted by the government through sec
tartan prejudice.
North and South America each had
an early acquaintance with the Jesuits.
They began preaching TO the Huron In
dams in 1928 and assisted in the found
ing of the colony of Maryland eight
years later. Most readers are familiar
with their extraordinary career in Par
aguay. where they practically converted
whole nation to Christianity.
There seems TO have been more than
one reason for the unprecedented action
of the Jesuits in holding their conven-
ton outside of Rome this year. 1t used
to be said that there were two popes in
the Catholic church-the white and the
black pope, the former being the recog-
nized pontsR of the vatican, the latter
the head of the Jesuits. This saying
arose from the power and independent
constitution of Jesuits, which, while it
certainly acknowledges the authority
of the pope at Rome, makes the order
independent of diocesan control. The
local bishops or archbishops do not in
terfere with the order in any way. The

There seems to be great prejudice

order was the election of a vicar gen
eral to replace the late Father Ander-
ledy.
The selection of the monastery of
Azpeytia as the place of meeting was at
once appropriate and significant. Near
there Ignatius Loyola, the founder Of
the order, was born, in 1891, of a noble
Biscayan family. Hence the place is
one of sacred memory to the Jesuits.
Again, in holding their congrega-
ton at Azpeytia the order has estab-
lished portentous precedent, for this
is the first time in their history that
they have ever held it outside of Rome.
During the three hundred and three
score years which have passed since the
vow was taken by Loyola and his fol
lowers that constituted the order, not
one of its elective meetings for the af-
fairs anent of a general has ever been
held outside Of the Eternal city Here
lies the significance of the congregation
of 1892, inasmuch as it is supposed to
signalize the elimination Of centuries
of secret friction between the vatican
and the Jesuits. Not in Rome las the
new chief Of tho order been selected,
but in comparatively emotc part OF
romantic Spain, near the wild waters
of the bay of Bis ~, and not very dis
tant from the .ncient walls of Pampe-
luna, under whose shadow the chivalric
Loyola, defending the city against
France, received the wound that con-
fined him TO his couch for months and
was the indirect cause of his forsaking
the sword for the cross.
So far as history and every known
record can advise US, the Jesuit order is
eminently representative of the Catho-
lie church militant In its conception
the product of soldiers brain, its first
tenet was the preaching Of the faith
wheresoever and in whatsoever manner
the church might require. Duty was
its watchword and hesitation unknown
in its lexicon. At the time the Jesuits
started in upon the mission as an order
affairs in Europe were disturbed and
critical. King Henry VIII, of Eng
land. had just destroyed no less than
six hundred nonasteries, and was at
war with the vatican, which gladly
welcomed the proffered services Of a
disciplined body of fearless and de
voted men ready to undertake any
thing in the cause of religion to
which they might be assigned,
and who possessed one priceless
qualification they were organized
under a constitution whose keystone

4 BASE SURRENDER,

In commenting upon the humiiiatins
position of the Democratic party in this
state. Hon. J. G. Lowe, in his mastery
reply to Judge John Martin, says:
Notwithstanding the elsquencs of
Judge Martins presentation OF the case,
it is apparent to all that the position in
which the Democratic party Of Kansas
is placed by the acton of the state con-
vention is indefcnsible by any process of
honest reasoning It was without ex-
cuse and we search III vain for Q prece-
dent or parallel.
1T required surrender. giving up
of principle, of organization, of manhood
and of independence, and Of political
honor. and now like seaweeds and drift
wood the party moves with the current
without any purpose and powerlesS to
direct its own political course.
ANY attempt to defend the action of
the convention upon the ground that
any thing is fair in politics should be de-
nounced as pernicious and revolutionary,
and personally l refuse to subscribe to
such doctrine. Everything is fair in
politics only when the means used are
honorable.
Politics is the science Of government
and being such how can men justify
their action and conduct by contending
that it is right to resort to tricks, lodges
and subterfuges not recognized by good
morals? Who dare teach this undemO-
cratic doctrine this heresy to the Demo
cratic voters of Kansas
