THE Starr band of desperadoes which
have succeeded the Da1tons will en-
counter great difficulty in robbing ex-
press cars on the Missouri, Kansas &
Texas, railroad in future. The safes
now used on these lines are burglar
proof and the only manner in which
they can be opened en- route is by dyna-
mite. The outer doors of these safes
are locked by key in the possession of
the messenger, but the inner door is
secured by a combination lock. The
combination is only known by the
agents at Hannibal, Sedalia, Parsons,
Muskogec and Denison, and even if the
messenger knew the combination he
could not open the safe for the dial is
removed while the car is passing
through the dangerous territory.

| To Me Editor Of me IuieLigsHesr.
SIR:-Now that DIR. McGlynn is on
his way to Rome to thank Leo XIII,
for his restoration, those who have
sharply blamed him for his criticisms
on the pOpe's impOlitics, will scarcely
be made happy by this turR IN events.
The less so since this restoration by the
supreme authority OF the church otil-
cially made known to the world, after
full cognizanCe had been taken OF the
ease, without any peRahGe or re'Eac-
ton being exacted oil him, ia equlya-
lent to the solemn declaration that Tor
five years he has been tho victim OF
cruel injustice. 1t is not OF faith that
the church has commission from her
divine founder to spread the gospel by
human diplomacy, and the 6cIion OF
the popes in that line is matter oil his
tory and open to criticism OF even her
most devoted children.
The Irish people, for example, have
certainly no reason to be grateful to tho
popes Tor their interference in their
political affairs from Adrian down to
Leo Mi, In that history you will find
plenty OF iecturing OF the Irish,-com-
handing obedience to their rulers and
their likes,-but where do you read Of
lessons given to those rulers themselves,
to the bad landlords, and the unjust
magistrates, who have so long oppressed
the poor Irish people? The popes have
been used as tools to help keep the Irish
in subsection. Why are not the Irish
us well as other peoples allowed to work
out their own social and political prob
lens in their own way? Only few
years ago we had the sad spectacle to
witness of an English layman, the duke
OF Norfolk, having more weight in Rome
in the matter OF the government OF the
Irish people than an episcopate that for
fourteen hundred years has given proof
that 1t knows how to preserve the faith
and piety OF the flock entrusted to its
guardianship. stop the evictions, said
Archbishop Walsh, and then We can
speak to the people"
Condemn boycotting," said Norfolk,
land the British government will give
the pope refuge in case war in Eu-
rope should break out" The British
governments request was granted, and
the poor Irish people were told prac'
tically that they might 90 out on the
road side and starve. Is there no room
for a difference OF opinion as to the wis
dom OF such action, even though it be
that OF the pope's? While smarting
under the unjust treatment that has
been dealt out to DIR. McGlynn during
the last five years he has said many
things which he would not say now.
He has been restored directly by the
pope-over the heads OF the propa-
ganda officials, who have shown that
they feel sore over the matter. They
have had to swallow their own medi-
cine; let US hope it may do them good.
