I 'On the very day Of the reconciliation Of DR..
McGlynn with the church public notice was
! given of it, with the statement that. Mgr.
| Satolli had absolved from ceusure and recon.
ciled Dr.. McGlynn BY special power Tor the
purpose requested from and granted by the
holy father; and moreover that the dissolution
had been given because DR., McGlynn had vii.

holy father as necessary and sufficient
This information so expressed should have

alton carried out by authority specially dele

tons called for by the holy father. Then it II
| well to make several reflections: "
Il. That as soon as it was understood that

DOund III conscience to recognize that all hau
been done in the case that was expedient and In
accord with the spirit OF the Catholic church
q That the selection Of the proper time and

conditions belonged to the authority of the
church and when the holy father should find it
OppOrtune after the reception Of the dOcuments
which were Immediately 'forw rded
'3 Everyone could see that the immediate
publication OF those conditions was for pruden:
| tial reasons omitted to avoid talk that might
oppose the good done by doing away with
the calamity which has so long weighed upon 8
priest by recOncill1ng him with mother church.
II this result had not been obtained, and If
this wise silence has been unacceptable to any
one, it must be ascribed simply to premature
exaction.
The conditions were in this form: Dr. Nc
Glynn has presented q brief statement OF his
opinions on moral and economic matters and
t was judged not contrary to the doctrine con-
stantly taught by the church and as recently
| confirmed by the holy father in the encyclical
| Rerum Novarum.' Also it is here
" publicly made known that DR.. Nc
flynn, besides protesting his adher-
ence to all the doctrines and teachings OF the
catholic church, has expressed his regret, say
ing that he would be the first to regret it for
Any act or word OF his that may have seemed
lacking In the respect due to ecclesiastical au.
shority and se thereby intends to repair, as for
As he can, any of1ense which may have been
given to Catholics
FINALLY DR.. McGlynn has, Of his own free
sill, declared and promised that within the
units of not long nerin6 nj iunah he vii IN
come in the spirit and intention which are be-
-umlng to good Catholic and priest
Then it is weA to note how deplurable it is
lat this reconciliation should have been dis
used as it has been in newspapers, in such
manner that private and lay persons have
AIRED to pass upon it harsh reproach and i'll
onsidered censure. That anyone should have
,.red to speak Of the pope's authority over the
hurch In America as foreign is q sentiment
nd an utterance enormously erroneous and
,:andalous.
1.-THE action OF the church and of the holy see
4 the things that belong to it is superior to
very man-made boundary universal and proper
every country in which there My be Cath
lies For which reason it seems to US exceed
gly oppOrtune to recommend due respect in
very case to ecclesiastical authority, and be-
ore Ill to that holy see, as well as to that OF
me council OF Baltimore inasmuch as it is for
tdden to treat ecclesiastical matters and
tlestions through the medium Of journalism.
Much more deplorable is it that persons,
9TH ecclesiastics and laymen (whO wish to ap
car as sincerely Catholic), make bad use OF
| journalism with violent and mendacious at
,.scks, beyond all bounds OF respect and charity.
| tsainst venerable prelates, whose virtue ana
arn1ng, whose rectitude of character and un-
Questioned and unques tOnable love toward the
:lurc1 and the supreme pOntlf, never unaccom
Anied by sincere love Of country, make them
:eservedly the subjects Of the special predilec-
ion OF the holy father and Of universal esteem ~
NEW YORK, Jan. 16.-On the an
uouncement that the pope had estab-
ished permanent delegation in the
United States and had named Mgr.
satolli the first delegate, Archbishop
Corrigan prepared a statement which
his secretary. Father Connolly, gave to
The press. The statement says among
other things:
I'VE all receive this decision Of the holy
ather as we receive all other decisions emf
lating from hun, with the profoundest rever-
ence, respect and obedience. Before the holy
see acted there might have been room for a diff
erence of opinion; now none exists. For my
'wn part gladly receive and welcome the
news in question, always supposing it to be au-
Lhentic.''
"This is a complete answer to those who op-
posed Mgr. Satolll's authority. The establish
nent OF delegation here will have most ben
eticial effect on the church in America It
will maintain peace and harmony and facili-
ate the settlement OF controversy among
referred to Rome 1t practically organizes in
perfect form the Catholic church In America,
nstituting, as it were, for more important
church affairs, home rule We will have at
home a branch Of the supreme ecclesias-
sical court further result will be
that the Immediate working and thoughts
II the holy see will be brought more
prominently before the American people. who
from observation will see that the Catholic
| church in its highest action is thoroughly in
harmony with the principles Of our democracy
Ind all that is good, useful and elevating in
modern progress"
