CATHOLICS and Professionals are living
not only at peace but in friendly harmony,
writes Frederick Il. Coudert in the July
Forum. They mingle together without
reference to their peculiar views of faith,
respecting. rather than toleratinG. each
others creeds. They deal together, live
together. intermarry. rejoice together. and
mourn together when sorrow touches the
homes of those they love. generous
emulation in good works is their only
rivalry. proud consciousness of their
supreme as a nation is the common
ground upon which they love to stand.
Almost for the first time in history, charity
goes about clad in no exclusive dress, but
visits the poor and cheers the distressed
without inquiring into the form of prayer
IN which the suffering soul speaks to
heaven and asks for aid. The barriers are
breaking down that separated class from
class and men from men. Just and equal
laws, with benevolent neutrality. have en-
couraCei every form of belief that made
men more loyal and patriotic. And now.
when the millennium OF religious differ
ence has come and stripped controversy of
its bitterness, there arises mysteriously
and treacherously a secret band that dares
to ask thu American people, in violation of
Its traditions and laws and constitution
and history in violation of honor and of
gratitude for past service, to ostracise, dis
grace and turn into serfdom millions of
native born Americans whose sole offense
is that they worship God AS did the whole
christian world only three centuries ago.
1t may be amiss to treat these disturbers
Of the ace with contempt, for their
powers for mischief may not be despicable;
but what language would be too strorg if
an attempt were made duly to characterize
this un-American. un-chriStian. unmanly

The loss to the miners by the strike.
which began April 81. has been estimated
at 81 500, 900. The loss to mine owners,
consumers, transportation companies and
for property destroyed will not fall short
Of 81 500. 200. The loss in expenses in
tiicted upon local and state governments,
and ultimately upon the taxpayers in the
coal producing states, has also been very
considerable. The loss of life and the in
jury inflicted in weakening respect for
self-covernment do not admit of money
computation. But nothing is more certain
than the fact that the results achieved bear
no reasonable proportion to the risks in
Cured and the frightfuI injuries done.
The savings of years have been swept
away. and there is nothing to show for it.
Ir was the dispute that followed the
birth of the eldest son of King James III
Of England that led to the euacting of the
law which requires one of the secretaries
of state to be present whenever there is a
birth in the reigninG family of Great
Britain. When the eldest son of King
James Was born the kings enemies main
tanned that his heir was not the offspring
OF the queen. but an infant that had been
procured elsewhere for the purpose. Other
foes of King James declared that the
queen had given birth to girl. who had
at once been exchanged for a boy. and
these doubts contributed greatly to slacken
the hold of the house of Stuart upon pub
lie affection. Since then a cabinet minis
ter has always been present in the room
when royal birth has taken place. and
the custom has been adopted at all the
continental courts.
