THE NAMES OF PRIESTS
From Which One Is to Be See
leeted to Succeed Bish-
op Marty.

Bishops Marty. MeGolrick. Cotter ana
Stanley, of this archdiocese, reached
the city Tuesday evening, and went
into conference with Archbishop Ire
land on the matter of recommending to
Rome the names OF certain priests from
whom successor to Bishop Marty will
be selected. Bishop Marty has lately
been transferred from Sioux Falls. SD,
to St Cloud. and it Is the duty Of the
bishops of the ecclesiastical province Of
st. Paul to advise Rome as to a suitable
successor for Sioux Falls. The consul
tation continued yesterday, but 10 in
timation as to the names to be recon-
mended bas been given as yet. In all
probability the list will be finished to-
day.
The appointment of Rt. Rev. Martin
Marty. of Sioux Falls, s. D., to the see
of ST. Cloud. Mimi, reyives many queS-
tlonS OF interest in the Catholic church
of Minnesota and the Dakotas. There
are men still living who remember
when there was only one priest i'll the
whole territory comprising the three
states mentioned. The priest is Mgr.
Ravoux, who resides in the clergy
house of the cathedral. Though the
SHOWS OF eighty wi nters are upon his
head, it is SAID that he is yet able to
engage in a discussion savOring OF all
the freshness CT morn. Six GiOeeses
have been carved out OF Father RAJ
v0uX's Old parish. and TODAY there are
40 priests ministering where half
century ago there was but one.
ST. Paul. the mother church itself, IS
still quite young. not having been raised
to an episcopal see until 1850, but il
f1ourished rapidly under the sanity
Cretin and the accomplished Grau. and
in 1883 1t was raised to the dignity of a
metropolitan see. In 1889 Bishop Marty
was transferred from Yankton TO Sioux
Falls. the Yieariate apostolic Of st. Cloud
was made diocese. and WinonH, Du-
luth and Jamestown were made episcO-
pal cities. The Ri. Rev. Otto Zardetti,
a scholarly and gentlemanly ecclesias-
tic, became bishop Of ST. Cloud: the Rt.
Rev. J. E. Cotter became bishop of his
own town of Wnona: the Rt. Rev John
Stanley was sent from his cathedral
pastorate to preside over the spiritual
destinies of population scattered over
the $4,000 square miles of North Da-
kota. and the Rt. Rev. James McGOlrick
left the chief church of Minneapolis 10
take charge OF the diocese of Duluth.
The inhabitants of St. Paul can readily
recall the triple conservation which took
,II traf nr
1889. On that day the lifelong friends,
Fathers McGOlrick, COtter AMI Shanley,
were made bishops.
1t is seldom that Rome sends to the
United States for a bishop 10 I'll an
European see. In fact, the policy Of
the present pope is to select bishops
from the clergy of the particular cOun-
try of which there is question. That
Rome should fix its steady eye upon the
little town of ST. Cloud. in far off Min
nesota. surprised many, But the in
ftiated knew that the couTtly Zardetii
was not destined 10 spend his DAYS IN
the obScurity Of rough border town.
They knew that his accomplishments
were many: that his ambition was
bOuDdless. and that he had friends at
court. Cardinal Ledoehowski. the pre-
feet of the propaganda, IS close friend
of Bishop Zardetti. and warmly ad-
vocated his interests. The result was
the translation of the ST. Cloud prelate
TO the archiepiseopal see of Bucharest,ln
ROumania.
Bishop Zardetti was great success
as professor. He is an author of some
note and, within certain limitations.
very able theologian. He is more suit
able for those countries where social
caste IS very pronounced than Tor the
baiI-fellow -weil-met manners or The
Northwest Some think that there IS
vet more ecclesiastical preferment n
store for Bishop Zardetti. They say
that he will be called 10 Rome TO receive
the red hat. and that he will be invited
to reside there. Bishop ZardeIti's re-
InovaI to Bucharest has occasioned sew
erai ecclesiastical changes III thess
parts.
Bishop Marty'S Successor.
For a long time there has been much
surmise as TO The successor of Bishop
Zardeitj in the see of St. Cloud. The
names of Rev. Charles ROeberl, of the
Church of Sacred Heart Of St. Paul, and
of Kew. James Zuobec, of St. Agnes
churcn. in this city. were mentioned fOI
The see of ST. Cloud. Ii was also said
that Bishop MatZ, of Denver. was cam
didate. Quite recently he resigned his
position as bishop of the Colorado cap
itaI. subject. however, TO the proyisG
that he be appointed TO another biShop-
ric. His resignation has not been &C.
eepted and ST. Cloud Will not know him.
The Ri. Rev. Martin Marty, news
of whose translation TO the see OF St.
Cloud was received recently. is well
advanced in years. He Is almost sixty
wears old. and was conseerated bishop
of Tiberias in 1850. Although bearing
the title of bishop of Tiberias, his work
has been in the Dakotas, where he has
labored zealously for red man ana for
white. Bishop Marty is member OF
the Benedictine order of monks. that
famous old order established by 81. Ben
erIct al Sublaco, Italy. in tie early years
of the sixth century. Within few
weeks the bishop VIII take up his resi-
deurr. in ST. Cloud. and the see OF Sioux
Falls will be widowed.
Ii IS impossible to say for certainty
who will succeed Bishop Marty IN the
see of Sioux Falls. There are several
conieetures in Roman Catholic circles,
and the names of four or FIVE prominent
eleFgymen have been mentioned. The
subject is full of local interest paTticu~
Iarly. as the general belief is that the
next bishop of Sioux FAILS will be Sc
Iected from the clergy Oh the diocese OF
ST. Paul.
