WHEELER H. PEcKHAn, whom Preet.
dent Cleveland has nominated for the
vacancy on the supreme bench of the
United States, has been charged with
being Knownothing, and what = worse,
he has admitted the soft impeachment.
He says, however, that although : mem
her Of Knownothing association he has
no prejudices against any class OF Amer
lean citizens. That is what al bigots
say, and it IL to be hoped that President
Cleveland will withdraw his name for the
exalted position. The Chicago Herald
calls upon the President not to give Office
to any Knownothing in the name Of the
Democratic party, and says that no man
who will take oath to deprive any portion
Of his fellow citizens Of their constitu
tional rights is fit to hold any office un-
der the constitution. No man so small,
90 mean, 80 oowardly as to join secret
pro criptive political association is fit to
be justice of the supreme court OF the
United States. In fact, such man is
by implication foresworn. He he's taken
an oath in violation Of the constitution.
To take another oath to support the con-
stitution would be blasphemy and per-
Jury.

BERNARD CAL1AGHAE, founder Of the
we'll known law book publishing house
Of Chicago, died the other day after an
active life Of more than three score years
and ten. He was an enterprising Irish
man whose death is deeply regretted by
the legal fraternity of the Worlds Fair
City. He was large hearted, generous
man who combined the astuteness and
energy of the American with the genial
humor and national gayety of the Hiber-
MAN. He translated into English Van

DURING the past half century there
have been but six Catholics elected to
the Belfast corporation, and no Catholic
in that Orange stronghold has ever filled

Belfast and Cork. In the latter city,
which is overwhelmingly Catholic, Pro-

The Wilson tariff bill, as amended,
passed the House Thursday by vote OF
204 to 40. Thirteen Democrats (pro-
verbal thirteen) voted with the Republi-
cans against the measure, Quick action
on the part of the Senate will now be
looked for. The best interests Of the
country demand this. The doubt and
uncertainty that has existed so long is
fast vanishing. McKinleyism is almost
at an end and the dawning of a brighter

seem to be increasing in Dalecarlia and

DIR, MARION d. SHUTTER, the scholarly
pastor of the Church Of the Redeemer,
paid a fine tribute to the Catholic
Church when introducing Father Cleary
last Wednesday evening before mixed
audience at the Universalist charch. He
said that the Catholic Church had the
honor of christiauizing the Indians in
early days instead of killing them off as
the Puritans had done. The Catholics
were the first to grant religious freedom
on this continent and had been always
loyal and true to the flag of the United
States. In Revolutionary days they dis
played their patriotism and in every war
in which the country was engaged they
took an honorable and conspicuous
part. He mentioned Charles Carroll, OF
Carrolltop, as one of the immortal sign
ers of the Declaration of Independence,
and referred to Archbishop Hughes of
New York as one of the American ENJOYS
who succeeded in preventing France and
England from aiding the Confederacy.
In the Civil War the three great gener-
ais were Grant, Sherman and Sheridan
and the hero of Winchester was Catho-
lie. At the conclusion of Father Cleary' $
address, Rev. DIR. Shutter called upon
the choir to sing "Our Country" and the
entire audience joined in singing the ma
tional anthem.

TIE latent anti Catholic instincts of
Harper's Weekly, which lay dormant for
several years, have been recently famed
into activity by the revival of Know
nothingism. Two weeks ago it's pent-up
feelings burst into a violent eruption
against Mgr. Satoili, the incentive being
the impertinent and discourteous letters
addressed by Bishop Coke, the Buffalo
blatherskite, to the papal delegate. Har-
per's Weekly was for many years an anti
Catholic organ of the most virulent type.
Patrick Ford of the Irish World got
after the Harpers with 9 sharp stick and
proved beyond doubt that they were
the descendants of American Tories who
espoused the cause of George III. in
Revolutionary days. He laid bare the
record of their Tory sires and brought
odium upon them for their treachery to
the cause of American liberty. For sew
eral years, Thomas Mast, an apostate
Catholic from Bavaria, acted as cartoon
list for Harper's Weekly, and in almost
every issue caricstured the Gignitaries
of the Catholic Church. He ridiculed
with his artistic pen everything that
Catholics hold dear. Eugene Lawrence,
rabid bigot, wrote week after week Of
fusions against Catholicity, 80 that every
issue Of Harpefs Weekly was redolent
with intolerance. In late years it was
conducted respectfully, bat now it 10 fall

Sir Edward Watkin has been explain
in his schen 9 for cutting Ireland in half
by stupendous ship canal from dublin
to Galway to representative Of 'tCas-
sells Saturday Journal" He totals the
cost at about 98,OOO,O0O. He would 80
improve the entrance to the Shannon up
to the point where it would cut the canal
that it would be navigable by,@1
going vessels, and thus form dofoie
let for ans-atlantic traffic. Sir Edward
says that the canal would shorten the
route to America by one clear day, and
would open up direct road of communi-
cation into the heart Of Ireland, and be-
come one Of the great trade highways OF
the world. He believes the solution OF
the Irish question is that the land wants

In the North American Review for last

charge that the Pope sympathized with

namely, that the Southerners recognized
the foreign element in the Union army
as the force that overthrow the Confed-
eracy.

on the authority Of Pore Chiniquy that

Coal Kickers Take First Place

From the Washington Post.
The kicks against the Wilson bill are
not all from the North, and wool has
taken back seat as the bone of con-
tention in favor Of coal. The kick
against putting coal on the free list
grows as the days grow. Governor
MacCorkle, of West Virginia, was at
tho National again yesterday, and still
raises his voice against exposing West
Virginia's infant industry to the COM
petition OF Nova Scotia's pauper made
coal. The pauper which made the Nova
Scotia coal veins three hundred miles
nearer the sea coast and Ave hundred
miles nearer New England was old
Dame Nature herself, but that does not
make much difference in the argument
advanced.

CATION of them, headed by Col. p. A..
