the archdiocese of st. Louis have met
for the purpose Of revising the laws
governing the action Of the clergy and

Their regulations most directly con-
corning the laity relate to the education
of the young. In the promulgations
resulting from the meeting is section
which slates that in parishes where
parochial schools have been established

them or other Catholic schools in the
city. Under no circumstances shall the
children be sent to the public institu-

Mr.. SOVEREIGN, the grand master
workman of the knights of labor, in an
address to the members of that organ
ization, says every kind of threat pos,
sible to carry out is being imposed
upon the working people TO whip them
into line for the gold standard; they are
threatened because of their political
opinions" Mr.. Sovereign is Northern
man and most of those he addresses are
Northern people. It's hoped that after
such testimony as his, the Northern cry
of Southern bulldozing may be sup
pressed and that in the South at least,
there may be no more talk of "a free
vote and fair count"

The POLES in New York have az
sembled and resolved that "the feeling
OF justice, common sense and conscience
demand that the Poles should oppose
free silver and vote for William Nc
Kinley." AS similar words are daily
seen in the orgaug Of the plutocrats in
New York, the source OF their inspira-
ton is plain. Well, the Poles of New
may support Mr.. Mckinley, but the
vast majority Of the native and nat
uralized citizens OF the South will sup.
port Mr.. Bryan, and they have the COLI
fdent hope that they will receive
enough assistance from the same sort OF
people in the West to secure his cleo
ton.

an agreement to join forces with the

lists, they, the populists, would place
upon tbs ticket the name of twenty

the republicans cannot hope to carry

IT Is now stated that the article in

been taken from the London Financial
Ne0s, did really appear in that paper,
