THE CATHOLIC cHAUTAUQUA.

In the early part OF last month meet
ing of priests and .laymen distinguished
Ia literary work met in New York City to
discuss the feasibility Of establishing a
Catholic summer school after the famous
Chautauqua plan. At the preliminary
meeting Father Sheedy, of Pittsburgh,
Pa, occupied the chair and sketched the
plan of establishing at some pleasant
place school during the summer
months whioh would combine the fea-
lures of instru ction and recreation. A
committee Of five was appointed to draft
a constitution in which the object of the
assembly is stated to be ''to foster intel
lectual culture in harmony with true
Christian faith by means of lectures and
special courses on university extension
lines, in literature, science and art, con-
Quoted by competent instructors while
at the same time combining healthful
recreation and profitable entertainment.
The constitution beingSadopted, the next

the school, and after proposing the COM
paratlve merits of several places the
meeting finally agreed upon New London,
Conn, where the school will be run
during the first three weeks of August.
This is an excellent undertaking which
has the approval of the hierarchy of the
United States, Bishop McGolrick, of Du-
luth, being among the first to give the
scheme encouragement. The New York
Sun has noticed the project editorially
and pronounces it a very striking and
significant movement which shows that
the Roman Catholics are adopting purely
American methods of propagating their
faith and stimulating the zeal of their
followers. 'They are" says the Sun,
taking lesson from the Methodists and
tile Baptists, the two religious denonaina-
tons which, together with themselves,
comprise about three-quarters Of the
declared Christian believers in this coun-
try" The lectures at the first assembly
which meets on July 81 will consist Of
ten on ethics, ten on history, ten on liter
allure, five on science and revealed reli-
gion, five on political economy, and five
on miscellaneous topics. These will be
delivered by leading Catholic educators,
and Cardinal Gibbons will be one of the
first to give an address. This Catholic
summer school will attract more atten-
tion and accomplish more good than the
Apostolate of the Press. convention which
met last winter in New York at the call
of Father Elliott, the distinguished
Paulist and editor of the Catholic World.

BISHOP Charles Fl. Fowler, Of the
Methodist, church, has taken the place OF
Bishop Fitzgerald in this city. He is
said to be one of the most honored pre-
lates Of his denomination. Bishop Fitz-
gerald while in Minneapolis attended
strictly to the interests of his own PEG
pie and scrupulously refrained from
meddling in the affairs Of other churches.
Bishop Foss, his predecessor, was also an
excellent man who had numerous adj
mirers here among all classes and creeds.

AN ENGLISH Catholic priest. who began

AN English Catholic priest, who began
life as soldier, writes letter to the
Spectator saying that if he were now in
the army and were called upon to draw
his sword against the Orangemen OF
Ulster, he would resign his commission.
He is one of the English "Cawtholics'
who hate Ireland worse than any fol.
lower of King William ever did. O'Con-
nell was right when he prayed Gods
forgiveness for obtaining the emancipa-
ton of the anti Irish Catholics of Eng
land.

THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION

The delegates to the Republican Ma
tional Convention which opens here next
Tuesday are arriving in large numbers,
and before we again go to press the pro-
ceedings of that convention will be
known throughout the world. At present
writing it is difficult to say who will be
nominated for the presidency. It is
evident, however, that Harrison is not
popular with the leaders of his party and
it would not be surprising it he failed to
get renominated. The friends of Blaine
in the convention will leave no stone un-
turned to give him the nomination, moth
withstanding his letter of declination to
Chairman Clarkson last February. They
say no man would refuse the honor of
the nomination after it is rendered him,
and that Blaine would not throw the
party into confusion by refusing it after
it is forced upon him. The friends Of
Harrison say that the object of the
Blaineites is to defeat the present incum-
bent and give the nomination to a third
man. They declare that the rejection of
the nomination by Blaine would be q
terrible calamity to the party and that
Harrison's chances for election would be
disastrously affected. Blaine is certainly
the most popular man in the Republican
4 party, but whether he. is. the strongest
1 man to head the national ticket is not so
certain, The adherents Of both mon are
likelyto have big fight over the nolnin-

man fractures from the American mHI-
kets. Others have gone to England and
have competed with British workmen,
reducing the wage rate. Under sym
pathetic government all these emigrants
would have remained in Ireland and
would have produced feed stuffs for
England, taking English manufactures
in exchange. On the other hand, the
landlords are practically excluded from
Parliamentary representation, and their
prosperity is saddled with $160,O00,OO0
in mortgages and other burden. Clearly
landlord government is no triumph for
them" Davitt then proceeded to state
in detail the demands Of the Irish party
and said: "We demand Home Rule to
insure that protection Of Irish industry
which Lord Salisbury; as a landlord,
seeks to obtain for Britieh trade, by tax
ing foreign products. The protection
trade requires is from the ground rent
and royalty systems, which impose a
burden Of 15O,0o0,000 shillings yearly
upon the kingdoms industry, crushing
it's productive power and enabling the
foreigner to compete with success.
Vested landlord interests are the real
secret of listers opposition to Home
Rule. They have tempted Lord Sails
bury and Mr.. Balfour to justify the
contingent of rebellion in Ulster in
their appeal to the feelings of religious
hatred in the hope of confusing the real
issues by the prejudice and excitement
of sectarian passion While agreeing
with Dayitt's views the Chronicle recalls
the fact that Gladstone consented to the
retention of Irish members at Westmin
lister and Chamberlain admitted that
! this concession met the Unlonist criti-
cism of the bill of 1886. 1t then reviews
the subsequent speech.s Of Chamber

Gladstone's policy except on the Ulster
question which Gladstone always left as

the Chronicle, shat there is nothing to
preclude the hope of a substantial and
complete unity of view among all men
calling themselves Democrats as opposed
to the mere Whig-Tory contingent.

WHAT good does it do the Protestants

croachment OF the Pope as long as they
vote for such men as Harrison or Blaine
who by all means encourage the Catho-
lies in order to secure the support of the
Catholic church, Svenska Ameri-
kanska Posten. What good does it dc
to be asking such foolish question as
this? Catholics, as such, ask nothing OF
Blaine or Harrison, and as for the Prot.
estants who protest against the Popes
encroachment, they are nothing but
cranks. What is the Pope's encroach.
ment anyway? Tia foreign editor OF
the P stem ought to get Americanized as
quick as possible and rid himself of his
