DEAR WHITE RIBBoNERs: VIII not
Mrs Harper. who has the Temple fund
so much at heart and who was chosen
by the Convention to urge upon the
Unions the duty, as well as privilege,
of contributing to this laudable enter
prise, tell rs what special use is to be
made of the money?
Our President, in her excellent Con-
vention Address. suggested that we
raise 800 for ii tablet in the Temple,
upon (which should be engraved the
name of our eX-president beloved
Mrs NJ f. Erwin: and while every
heart said amen to this, the Plan OF
Work Committee failed to recommend
that it be done and the Convention
took no action upon it. But il that

to such IN understanding.

our ranks faithful workers not a few,

raising 500 for the Temple; will not
others follow suit, and, individuals -
shall we not ask contributions of
them to swell this tablet fund?

In the juvenile work the Demorest
Medal Contests are very interesting
and instructive. There is no telling
how much good may be accomplished
through this one means for the cause
of prohibition. The children love to
learn the Rotations, and what their
young. vigorous minds take in will re-
main with them to improve their later
years. and enrich their lives with pure
thought and noble action. If every
union in the state would he careful to
have these Contests kept up, a few
years hence will show us what manly
smen the boys of today will be. Let us
be up and doing time is precious and
delay is,not safe.

by telegraph to the Dispatch.l
WASHINGTON, ID. c.. January 1O.-The
important controversy on the Catholic
and public-school question has assumed q
new and most interesting phase. The fact
can be stated on authority that the Pope,
through his ablegate, Archbishop Satolli,
has taken the Catholic bishops of the
United States INTO consultation on
the question. Some lnkling or this
came IN an inaccurate dispatch from
Rome on the 9Th instant, which said :
"The Pope has sent a letter directing the
American episcOpato to carefully examine
and consider the fourteen propositions
submitted at the conference of arch
bishops in New York in November last by
Archbishop Satolli, and make whatever
corrections they may deem advisable and
forward them to Rome"
As the wording of this dispatch and the
deductions drawn from Il give an erro-
neous impression, and as ecclesiastical Sc
crecy has been broken by the pu olcatioD,
this authoritative statement Is made ::
THE papal delegate. by order of the Holy
Father. has sent out an important notice
TO the aTchbishops TO be communicated by
them TO the bishops of the United States.
1t is a mandate from the Pope tnat each
bishop shall remit sealed letter, mailed
TO the Pope either directly or through
the intermediary of the legate, his per-
sonal, conscientious opinion OF the propo-
sitions on the school question which Arch
bishop Satolli, in the Pope's name, laid be-
fore the New York conference of arch
bishops in November last"
