SCORING sAUNDERsoN.

Col" Saunderson, who got his title
from braggarts like himself, and not
through any service he has given to any
land upon the battlefield, has been
roundly scored by a number Of English
papers, some Of them not in sympathy
with the present Gladstonian govern
ment, yet nevertheless fair enough to do
Justice TO that worthy priest, Rev. Father
McFadden, who was SO ungentlemanly
attacked, recently by Saunderson in one
of his fighty and irrational harangues in
the house Of commons: Reynolds News
paper has this to say in a late number:
''The Observation-Disclosures described
Father McFadden, one Of the most 'ex-
emplary priests in Ireland, as a murder
GUS ruffian.' The writer of this sketch
has had the pleasure Of passing night
in Father McFadden's house in the bleak
wilds OF Donegal A more humane, char
liable, and amiable man it would be i'm
possible to s.meet. He was loved by as
psrishioners; .hisss..schoolswas model Of
its kind. The lbright little peasant chill

made a speech protesting against the
eviction of hisspeople by the..all grasping
landlords, the Tory Government thought
this sufficieatsexcuse to send force Of
constabulary to arrest him. One OF these
stumbled and fell insthe confusion occa-

foundation Of the. e.Orangebigot's rascally
slander of smurderous ruffilan' Of Father
McFadden. Tho Irish members howled
with indignation. The Speaker said he

Col. HANS MArTsoN, editor in chief of
our esteemed contemporary, the North,
died at his late home, 1926 Park avenue,
Sunday morning, March 5, after brief
illness. He was born at Kristionstad,
Sweden, il 1892, and came to America in
1851. His residence in Minnesota dates
back over period Of more than thirty
years during al Of which time his career
was that of an active, energetic citizen.
During the late civil war he served four
years in the Union Army, where he rose
to the rank OF Colonel. In 1869 he was
elected secretary Of state and in 1881 was
appointed consul general to Calcutta by
President Garfield. Whether in private
Or official life Col Mattson was always
affable and courteous and his death will
be deeply regretted by al those who had
the pleasure Of his acquaintance.

THE NEW SECRETARY

Walter @. Gresham, Mr. Cleveland's
appointee as secretary OF state, has been
nade the subject for considerable dis
cussion since his appointment. Judge
Gresham has not become secretary with
out some dissatisfaction along the Dem
Dcratic lines, yet there seems to be no
good valid reason for this outside the
fact that he is but recent convert to
Democracy. fudge Gresham is admitted
to be, il all else, eminently fitted for the
Office Intellectually and morally He has
steadfastness in his convictions and fear
iessness il applying them. As an ex-
anale of this the political associations Of
life time were ruptured when he pub
licly declined to 60 any further with the
Republican party The policy in such
an appointment as this by President
C.evelaudl certainly looks more to the
building up of the Democratic party than
to the narrower field Of partizanship.
The Repu liaan party is threatened with
dissolution. The disatfection Of leaders
like Judge Gresham ia many other quar-
ters ought to be encouraged by hearty
welcome. Lst them come. No obstacle
should be placed In their way.

blind as had been their faith, so decisive
and thorough will be their annihilation
of the imposition. When the foot Of
public Indignation finally comes down
upon the usurpation Of these selfstyled
lords, as it one day will, their lordliness
will be crushed to an impalpable Jelly.
La the light of events that day is rapidly
dawning An insolent act Of folly, such
as rejecting great popular movement
like that for home rule. will serve to pre-
cipitats the crisis. It will raise storm
that will sweep away the mists that still
remain and let in the full light OF day on
these stilted actors.

TIE most conspicuous feature OF the
Review of Reviews, for March is study
OF the recent course Of American general
politics as interpreted by the careers Of
four public mon who have recently passed
away namely, Messrs. Blaine, Lamar.
Hayes and Butler. The article ID by
Prof. H. p. Jndson, of the Chicago Uni
versity, who is head dean Of the uniyer-
sity colleges and q thorough student OF
American history and politics. 1t is ia
teresting to note the broad and hopeful
tone of Professor Judson's discussion.
One may suspect that he is Republican
in politics, but his article is almost who vi
free from bias. He has warm side for
Mr.. Blaine, particularly for the broad
conceptions and aims of Mr.. Blaine's later
years. Professor Judson gives what he
considers the present~day Significance Of
the Monroe doctrine, and nothing could
Be moro timly than his discussion or this
subject His tribute to the late Justice
Lamar is one which that distinguished
statesman's friends viii appreciate for
its breadth and heartiness Upon the
whole, Mr.. Judson's study of our political
life from the reconstruction period up to
the retirement OF Mr.. Blaine from the
Harrison Cabinet, is perhaps the solidest
and meatiest paper that has appeared in
any Of the March magazines IT il TO
the credit or the Review Of Reviews that
while other periodicals are somewhat
flinching from solid elaborate discussion,
this magazine invariably gives ample
space in each number to one well devel-
oped subject without putting space limi-
tations upon the writer. The other parts
OF the magazine are managed upon the
plan Of strict condensation, but the main
feature of the month ID always elaborate
and expansive.

Gently been making one of it's periodical
exhibitions. The passage of the first
reading OF Mr.. Gladstone's Home Rule
bill through parliament caused all the
disturbance. The following choice bit

been heralded gcross the Atlantic:

face with stupendous crisis. lie we had
lost hundred Boynes and surrendered
as many Derrys with halters ronnd our
necks, more disastrous or humiliating
terms could not be dictated by the con-
querors than are contained in the Home
Rule bill. We have not however, lost a
single Boyne nor have we ever surren-
dered, and, therefore, we do not mean to
accept any humihating and disastrous
terms. We demand the Legislative
Union between Great Britain and Ire
land or freedom to direct our own course
among the free people of the world.
There is no halfway house. The expert
ence Of nearly hundred years has
proved the first to be the greatest means
of social and material advancement Ire
land has ever seen. We would accept

decay, not OF national prosperity. John
Stuart Mill once wrote: when the peo-
pie OF any country abandon it in over,
whelming numbers, the government Of
that country is ispo facto, condemned.
Yet it is just such a government or
rather travestry Of government, in a.
vor Of the, minority and against the in
terests OF the majority-from which
these Belfast fanatics declare that they
are not willing to be delivered Bnt
lyheir declarations are all the veriest rot,
Ewithout sense or reason.
The Evening Journal of this city,
in an editorial last Monday, said,
in conclusion: 1.-The Orange leaders
declared recently, after dramatically
tearing up the Home Rule bill, that,
| if the measure is enacted 100000
Orangemen will resist to the death its
effectuation. Al this violent talk is to
scare the English and obstruct Home
Rule. II the Glads' one measure is
passed there wouldn't be thousand Or
angemen girded for that battle. If they
make any resistance they should prompt
II be suppre essed. A large percentage ot
the Ulster population is descended from
Ipeople who occupied lands stolen from
the original Irish proprietors. II they dc
not want Home Rule in Ulster, the peo-
pie Of Lsinster, Munster and Connaught
want it badly. Belfast, Londonderry
and Carrickfergus cannot speak for al
Ireland. Ireland wants Home Rule; moi
| the Rule of Orangemen."

The following letter addressed.to ii

IHE following letter addre9SedstO the,
editor Of the Tribune, appeared in that
journal last Tuesday. Tt is from the
pen of Father Henry McGolrick. He
says: In the Sunday Tribune you quote
from DR.. Schaff, the eminent Presbyteri-
an theologian,' the following words:
s'The pope was not declared infallible
till 1870, and Pope Honorious Ill. was
declared q hereto both by an ecr1meni-
cal council and by several popes. Thus
we have council eontradicting council,
and popes contradicting popes' Permit
me few words in reply. We find no
such thing in history as pope contradict
ing pope in ex-cathedra definitions Oh
matters Of faith and morals, nor did one
ecumenical council contradict another Ia
its approved dogmatic DEGREES. Hear
the Catholic teaching on infallibility.
The Pope as successor Of st. Peter BY
virtue Of the promises OF Jesus Christ. 10
preserved from error of judgment when
be promulgates to the Church decision
as to the law of faith and morals. The
Pope is neither inspired nor impecable.
He is not the maker Of the law, nor is lie
the author of any revelation. God made
all revelation we possess complete at the
beginning Of the Church. Dr. Schaff's
sad picture of the divisions and dissen-
sions amongst non Catholics, where
every man doeth what seems best to his
own mind, and no authority nor order
prevails, goes Ear to prove the necessity
for an infallible interpreter of revela-
tion, such az Catholics claim the Lord
has given them in the successors of Pc
ter. Honorius III. is evidently a mis-
print for Honorius T., who, many his
turians believed was condemned by the
sixth ecumenlcal council because.
through fear of causing disturbances, he
hesitated to condemn the Monothelite
heresy. He was not even accused of hay-
ing taught the Church error on faith or
morals. In dogmatic letters to this
sixth council Pope ST.. Agathon thus
writes: THE Catholic world looks up to
this Roman Church as the mother and
mistress Of al the Others BY the grace
of Almighty God it will never be con-
victed Of having wandered from the
path Of apostolic tradition, or OF yielding
tothe waywardness of heretical teachings.
The faith which she has received from
her founders she has kept sustained, ac-
cording to the promise made by Our
Lord To st Peter" The Pops in his sec.
ond letter declares to the council that
the right Of his sse to teach the revealed
doctrine to all has ever been held BY all
universal synods and by Chl.st's Church
throughout the world. To Pope Leo H..
