Four Hundred Children in the Class-A

Four Hundred Children in the Class-A
Picturesque Ceremony.
Bishop Wigger last night, assisted by
the Rev. Fathers Farrell and Kelly. ad-
miuistered the sacrament of confirmation
to about four hundred children of ST.
Mary's parish. The scene in and about
ST. Mary's Church was impressive. The
applicants for confirmation occupied
the two centre rows of seats.
The majority were young girls
aud they all wore white dresses and long,
flowing wells. The boys wore red sashes
over their right shoulders and pinned at
their left sides. All the seats in the
church were crowded with parents and
friends of the children. The aisles and
vestibules, the galleries and the choir
loft were crowded. and it is estimated
that at least thousand people were un-
able to gain admission to the service.
The altar was brilliantly illuminated, as
it was Ascension Thursday.

The claim of the Democrats that
their gerTymanders are no worse than
those of Republican legislatures is not
only absurd-when made by party
which went into power on the profess
sion that it would do better than the
Republican party had dOne-but is
also untrue as matter of fact. No
appOrtiOnment was ever made before
that of the last legislature in which
the state was divided up purely for
party advantage. Districts were
formed before which did not comply
with the recent decisions of the su-
pTeme court as to what the constitu-
ton required. but they were made
solely for some local or individual ben.
eft and not TO secure the supremacy
of political party. No claim was
ever made by the Democratic party
that any previous apportiOnment was
unfair to them as minority party.
Special cases of dissatisfaction were
numerous, but the DIRECTORS were
quite as apt 10 be Republicans as DEM
ocrats. Ii proof of this the journals
of past legislatures can be produced
in evidence, and they will show that
in the case OF every apportionment
hiu previous u chat of 1891. more
Democrats voted for the bill than
against il. and usually as many Repub-
licsns voted against it as Democrats.
Party lines were never drawn till in
1921; and when the Democrats accuse
Republicans now of playing the ba-
by act" in attacking a partisan gerry
mander, they show that they do not
understand the history of the past nor
comprehend the proper application of
language. Uhifeudfer Register.

Where the Wealth Is.

1t is popular, but fallacious idea,
that gold and silver mines are the
chief wealth. producing source s of any
nation, and particularly of the United
States. The yield of such famous
mines as the Comstock, with its $780,
100000 of gold during its life, and the
discovery of new mines, are heralded
to the world by the press until the av-
erage man has his attention so taken
up by them that he thinks of them as
the great source of wealth. Since
1898, the product of gold in the Unit.
ed States has been about one billion
dollars, an average of ten millions a
year. In 1891, in only ten states of
this Union (traversed by the Burling-
ton Route lines) the production of
wheat for that single year was 260
million bush ais, valued at two hun
dred million dollars. Five such years
would equal the value of the gold
mined in a hundred years. Do you
see where the riches of our country
are! To reach the true Eldorado. take
the Burlington Route, which runs
trains daily to all principal cities and
towns of these States. Call ON your
home agent for tickets, or address for
any information w. j. G. Kenyon,

Whereas a rumor is being circulate

has been obtained at my place. If
these rumors are true, the articles in
question must have been purchased at
some other place.

defy any one to show otherwise
in any case. We indeed fully intend
to keep ''Model Bakery and Gro
