ed the incorporation in the proposed
bill of the income-ta feature. In mat
tiers of this kind, however, which do
not violate fixed and recognized dem
ocratic doctrine, we are willing to defer
to the judgment OF majority of our
democratic brethren. | think there is
general agreement that this is party
duty.
This is more palpably apparent when
we realize that The business of our
country timidly ST ands and watches for
the result of our efforts to perfect tariff
legislation, that quick and certain
return of prosperity waits upon wise
adjustment, and that n confiding peo-
pie still trust in our hands their pros
perity and well-bning.
The democracy of the land plead
most earnestly for the speedy compile
ton of the tariff lie sislation which their
representatives have undertaken, but
they demand not less earnestly that no
stress of necessity shall tempt those
they trust to the Il abandonment of demo-
cratic principle.

WASHINGTON, July 17.-In view of
criticisms that have been uttered in
certain quarters on the legality of the
course pursued by President Ciev Gland
in using federal troops, notably in
Chicago, not to preserve the peace but
to execute the DEGREES of the federal
Judiciary and keep in operation the

tuition in the land has peculiar appli-
cation:

you have proceeded are, l think,

MGR. SATOLLI ON TEMPERANCE.
THE EXPULSION OF LIQUOR DEALERS
FROM CATHOLIC SOCIETIES.

FROM CATHOLIC SOCIETIES.
The N. Y. Press OF Thursday says
Mgr Satolli, the apostolic delegate,
has just rendered decision condemn
ing the liquor traffic. He approves of
the expulsion of liquor dealers from
Catholic societies. This remarkable
decision was called forth by an appeal
from the ruling of Bishop Watterson,
of Columbus, Ohio.
During the last lenten season Bishop
Watterson addressed letter to the
clergy and laity of his diocese dealing
wholly with the temperance problem.
Bishop Watterson said
II hereby withdraw my appreciation
from any and every Catholic society
in this diocease that has liquor deal
err or saloon keeper at its head or any
where among it's officers, and | suspend
every such society from the rank and
privileges as Catholic society until it
ceases to be so differed, No one who
is engaged either as principal or agent
in the manufacture Or sale OF intox-
icating liquors shonld be ADMITTED to
membership"
One of the societies laid the matter
formally before Monsignor Satolli. To
this appeal the aposto'i. delegate has
just responded. 1t SuStalnS the posi-
ton of Bishop Watterson and says
1.-The liquor traffic, and especially as
conducted here in the United States,
is the source of much evil; hence the
Bishop was acting within his rights in
seeking to restrict it, Therefore, the
delegate apostolic sustains Bishop
Watterson's action and approves of his
circular and regulation concerning sa-
looms and the expulsion of soloonkeep-
ers from membership in Catholic So
cieties."
Rev. Alexander P. Doyle, of the
Paulist Fathers, the general secretary
of the Catholic Total Abstinence u
MON of America, said that the declar-
alton of the apostolic delegate is the
most important ever pronounced by
the church in this country, and he
thought its effect would be far-reach-
ing"

Hon. H. d. Flood WIthdraws from the Con-
test in the Tenth District.
To my friends and supporters Of the
Tenth Congressional District
For the following reasons withdraw
from the race for the Democratic nomi-
nation to represent this district in the
54th Congress
On Monday, the 10th of July, Am
herst county selected delegates to the
Congressional Convention to be held
at Buchanan on August 10th. The
contest for delegates in that county
was warm. A large and enthusiastic
mass meeting assembled. Knowing
that it was pivotal county and be
lieving that unless | could secure Its
solid delegation I could not be nomi-
mated, my friends willingly accepted
the suggestion to select the delegates
by general mass-meeting. The con
test vas close but fair, and delegates
adverse to my nomination were chosen.
| now see that further contest can
but result in useless efforts on the part
ask them to make, and may possibly
in some sections, breed disaffectiOn in
our ranks.
For these reasons, and after consulta-
ton with many of my generous and
warm supporters, have deemed it but
just to them, and for the interests of
our party, that adopt this course.
| can never feel sufficiently grateful
to my friends for their generous sup
port, and will ever treasure it's memory
in my heart as one of the sweetest OF
my life.
You, my friends, will please accept
my thanks, and believe me that sue
cess could not have added one feeling
of gratitude which does not now fill my
breast.
Let me make one more demand on
your kindness. Unite with me in Civ
ing to our nominee, when selected. the
same active and warm support you
would have rendered me. From the
day of his nomination to the day OF
election, l hold my time and every
energy of my mind and body at his and
my party's command.
Gratefully your friend,

Death of Mrs. 3. F. Harlow.

Seldom has our community been so
shocked as when late last night the
words Mrs. Harlow is dead ~ passed

hottest apprehension of any serious re-

the stomach, baffied the skill of her
physician, and, last night about 9
o'clock she passed to the other shore.
Mrs. Harlow is too well known to need
any panegyrics at our hands. The ex-
carnations that spring spontaneously
from the lips of every one when mott
fed of her death are stronger testi-
mony. of her worth, character and the
high esteem in which she was held
than anything we can say. She was a
daughter of the late B. L. Renick, and
was about 55 years old. The funer a

Church this afternoon at o'clock

This was the second time the House

No Surrender to the Sugar Trust.

The issue between the House and
the Senate is simply an issue, says the
New York Herald, between democracy
and Gormanism, an issue between the
American people and the Sugar Trust.
The paramount question is whether
the House shall stand firm for a tariff
revision, honestly framed in pursuance
of democratic pledges and for the bene
fit of the people, or shall fall in with
the scheme of cOteric of Senators
who have succeeded in forcing through
a bill branded with Mckinley protec
ton, vitiated with ubiquitous conces-
sions and tainted with the scandal of
Sugar Trust jobbery. In short, the
question is whether the honest demo-
Gratis, not only of the House, but also
of the Senate, shall maintain the stand
of the democrats and the people of the
country or shall surrender to Mr..
Arthur P German and the Sugar
Trust.
To this question there can be but
try, and but one that will not bring
dishonor and disaster upon the demo-
cratic party. There must be no sur
render of democracy to scandalous
compromise, and no betrayal of the
people to the Sugar Trust. Far better
would it be for Congress to adjourn
and go home leaving the tariff I'M
touched than to cOnsummate de-
olalizing compromise which would
afford the country little Or no relief
and would serve no better purpose
than to swell the profits of trusts.
monopolies and favored interests.
From the beginning the House has
represented the democratic party and
the people in this vitality important
matter, and it should continue to
represent them steadfastly 10 the end.
1t promptly passed a moderate, jul
dicious tariff bill designed to cut off
the burdens and abuses of protection
as far as could be done with due regard
to the business interests and industrial
condition of the country. The Senate,
on the other hand, dallied with the
subject more than five months, to the
incalculable injury of trade and labor,
started a scandal without a parallel
since the Credit Mobilier iobhery, and
finally sanctioned an ubiquitous scheme
which the democratic party cannot
afford to indorse.
Between these two measures demo-
Gratis loyal to their party and the
country cannot hesitate.

The IadeG-AppeGI says Debs and his
associates have gone to jail not because
they could not get bail, but rather
because they believe that their confine-
ment in prison will secure them sympa-
thy which they could not otherwise at
tract to themselves. Thus ends the
wretched movement of which these
men have been the prime instigators.
Debs will most probably sink into OBJ
security, and it is doubtful whether he
is ever heard of again except as a
ridiculous figure in the tragic strike of
1894. His plans have all failed there
strike in existence and, baffied at
every point, repudiated by the most
powerful and conservative labor organ
izations, it seems that he ought to find
in the seclusion of a prison the OPP
portunity for retiring from the public
gaze. AS for sympathy the American
Railway Union will get precious little
of it, 1t did not undertake to right its
grievances in the proper way, or in ac-
cordance with principles which COM
mand the approval of the people. 1t
was condemned by the Federation of
Labor and the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Engineers substantial labor
organizations which refused to join
with Debs in his efforts to cause a
general strike. This was significant
1t proved conclusively that Debs was
not worthy of the sympathy which he
asked from organized labor. And if he
was ignored in this quarter, how can
he expect sympathy from the general
public? Mr.. Debs is deservedly a
failure. Now let him disappear and
be no more heard Of. He will serve as
an lawful warning" to the agitators of
the future. That is the only practical
use to which he can be put.
