he knew to be true:
party of rs cowboys, seven in num-

Purcell to round up stray cattle. Prep

had BEEN set TO: departure, when
stranger, a young English traveller put
in his appearance and begged leave to
20 along. We hesitated about granting
his request, for the idea of having a ten
dprfoot IN camp was not an attractive
one. But at this Jnncture it was discov-
cred that the Englishman had an abund-
ance Of fine WHISTLES and tobacco in his
hamper.
The case at once assumed an altogether
different aspect, and our new acquaint-
ance was received with open arms.
You see, we had been drinking the vile
stuff the traders furnished so long that a
taste Of really good liquor was regarded
as thing to lie desired above all others
cur tobacco, both chewing and smoking
was also very inferior quality. A

The rain which preceded us made the

more than pleasure.
A reception.was rendered and accept-

part with our popular and efficient Sec
retary, @. E. Day, but important busi-
ness required his return to Los Angeles.

vote OF thanks for the valuable services
rendered and the many courtesies ex-
tended to all.
The special train is in charge of Mr..
II. M. Van Slyck, general passenger
agent of the Atlantic and Pacific road,
who is succeeding admirably in making
the trip enjoyable and memorable. The
itinerary has been faithfully carried ont,
the train making all points on time.

A Candidate From tho Republican Ranks
Selected for Governor.
DEs MONIES, Ia, Sept. 5.-The citi-
zens' Prohibition state convention was
called to order shortly before noon by
A. P. Lowrey. Only 100 delegates were
present. DIR. Emery Miller was made
temporary chairman. He said if Gov
ernor Boies was reelected 1t would be
the result of the Republican convention
of last August, ,snot OF this. The question
was to save as many members OF the
Legislature as possible for Prohibition.
Rev. ]. D. Wells was made permanent
chairman.
At the afternoon session a platform
was adopted. 1t was resolved that, as
neither the Republican nor Democratic
party had adopted satisfactory plat
form respecting the liquor question,
that a candidate for governor be
nominated whose views and sentiments
accord with the heretofore expressed
will of the people OF the state upon the
liquor question. The doctrine of local
option of license, or any other device by
which the saloon may gain legalized
existence in Iowa, is repudiated in
mObb oupudJlC mhuuok. LII Whh uo-
clared that the questian o. maintaining
and enforcing the prohibitory law of
the state was regarded as the para
mount and practically the only issue in
volved in the approaching November
election. and they would not be de-
ceived or misled by those who should
attempt to divert the attention of the
people from this question by the dis
cussion of those questions over which
the governor and members of the gen.
eral assembly elected can exercise no
direct control.
There were discussions of varioas
amendments for three hours, but the
platform was finally adopted as above
outlined. One member of the commit
tee on resolutions, Dawson of Washing
ton county, repudiated them. saying he
was Repu ublican.
The convention then proceeded to
nominate candidate for governor and
L. S. Coffin, ex.etate railroad commits
sioner was unanimously chosen. An
attempt was made tonight to reach him,
he being at present in the east. but he
has not yet been found. The Republi-
cans believe he will not accept. The
convention made no other nominations.

CHICAGO, Sept. 5.--"In the name OF Leo
XIII salute the great American repub-
lie, and call upon the Catholics of
America to go forward, in one hand bear
ing the book Of Christian truth, and in
the other the constitution of the United
States" said Papsl Delegate Satolli,
wrapping the purple robes OF his office
about him and speaking with burning
intensity of feeling that surprised the
great multitude gathered in the Catholic
congress-. The scene was dramatic in
the extreme. The personal representa-
tive of the Roman pontiff to the United
States was literally shaking under the
stress of the excitement of the occasion,
which was his first public appearance at
a national gathering since his appoint
ment to Office, and is by many regarded
as his installation into office. ALI this
occurred after the congress was called to
order by the presiding officer, Judge M.
j. O'Brien of New York, who delivered
an address of welcome. Meantime the
papal delegate sat on a lofty throne-like
chair, said to have been brought to
America by Columbus. The papal dele
gate spoke in Italian, which was after
was translated by Archbishop Ireland.
Satolli said the model for this and
every such gathering was when Christ.
surrounded by the children Of Israel,
delivered the great Sermon OH the
Mount, the burden of which was: "Seek
first the kingdom of God and it's
righteousness and all other things shall
be added unto you" The delegate said
here in America was the key to the
future, and the pope charged him to
speak words of hope and blessing and
the message quoted above.
Other addresses we're made by Bishop
Wattefson of Columbus, o., cousin of
Hon. Henry Watterson, of Louisville,
and number of laymen.,
Among those who participated in the
discussion opened by Bishop Watterson,
were Edward Osgood Brown, a single
tax advocate, Judge John Gibbon of
Chicago; Timothy Dwight. of Boston,
and May Thresa Elder, of New Orleans.
An interesting address on the "Cath-
olic Summer school and Catholic reading
circle" was delivered by Katherine Con-
way of Boston.
By special invitation, several repre-
sentstives OF the colored Catholic con-
gress we're given seats on the platform.

he said: Immigration is huge pesti-
lential sewer concentrating our once
pure lake of American people. The
facts show that IL per cent of the popu-
lation is foreign, while 30 per cent of the
intabitants OF our asy Ipms and hospitals
are foreign. Our race is dying out. Our
American women bear no more children.
Who is to take their place? Americans
no longer nurse their young. How can
We prevent it? Give us a national
scientific body and the cure and better
ment OF the race will soon follow"

lutions were adopted declaring the inter-
est OF the public health should and must
be intrusted in any nation to depart.
