In London the Manitoba school ques-
tion is being discussed anew, and it is
said that the papal delegate to Canada
will be unable to settle the matter re-
garding the part the bishops take dur
ing an election. This is said to be the
Conservative, or Tory, opinion in Cana
da, OF rather in the province of Quebec.
It is argued in some quarters that the
interference of the. bishops in elections
will come up for disposition as we'll as
settlement by the. delegate, and that this
will be question apart from the school
matter ITSELF While the separate school
question and the action of the bishops
at election times are inseparably inter-
woven, they are yet two Distinct Watters.
1t has not as yet been int1mated to
the public as to the manner in which
the papal delegate will proceed to adjust
these grave problems, but he has ample
powers conferred upon him from Rome,
and will no doubt be guided by what is
best fer all parties concerned.

They cannot and will not educate the
Indians themselves, and are exerting all
their energies to prevent Catholics from
doing SO. They prefer to see the chill
dren of the red man roaming idly over
the prairies, growing up in paganism
and barbarism, than to see ther1 civil
lied and christianized by Catholic mis-
sionaries. In the trenchant words Of
Senator Vest; "they would rather see the
Indian damned than to see him in the
Catholic church." sectarian animosity
is not yet dead in the breasts of the de-
scendants of the New England Puritans
and the poor Indians suffer in conse-

King Oscar, of Sweden, .has Just COM
pleted novel in which his grandmoth-
er, the wife of Marshal Bernadotte, is
the heroine. Her maiden name was De-
stree Clary. In her youth she was as
sociated with Napoleon and his brother,
Joseph Bonaparte. '5 Her sister, Julie
Clary, married Joseph, and she herself
was afianced to Napoleon for time,
but dismissed him because of his at
tentions to- women of greater note in
Paris. Finally .Desiree married Berna-
dotte. a young officer who rose from the
ranks of the French army to- become a
marshal, prince of Pontecorvo and king
of Sweden. King Oscar is the gentle
man who. was selected in the early
stages of the arbitration. treaty. to act
as the umpire between this country and
Great Britain in case the: two nations
could not agree. As the discussion of
the treaty progressed, however, Oscar
was set aside, because it, was thought
he was too much under the influence Of
England to become an impartial ar

The Buffalo Union and Times is Justly
indignant over the adoption of Irish
names by fellows who enter the prize
ring and belong to other nationalities.
Tommy Ryan" is the ring name of a
lightweight pug whose right name is Jo-
seph Youngs, a fellow who, as FIR. Cronin
says, has no more Irish blood in his
veins than bologna sausage: There is
some pride, perhaps, in having such
Irish pugilists as ~Donnelly, Heenan,
Morrissey, Sullivan and Corbett, but the
Irish race is not bit honored by the
small fry pugs bearing Irish names. But
others who are much worse than pugi-
lists take Irish names to conceal their
identity when they are charged with
crime. Two months ago at a place
called Wyoming, a small town within 30
miles of this city, fellow was arrested,
indicted, tried, convicted and executed
under the name of George Kelly. A
Lutheran minister attended him on the
scaffold and gave him spiritual consola-
ton to meet the God he had offended.
He kept his assumed name to the last
and died without divulging his own
name. He was an American by birth
and had not drop of Celtic blood in his
body.

:at1d.wh1le the American peopleswill not
allow their generous hearts to be steeled
against the cries of suffering from any
quarter, no matter what the cause of the
misery. they cannot help believing that
England is still pursuing her usual
heartless methods, coupled with an all
dacity, and should show some consisten-
cy in her appeals. Pleading as she does
with the world to come to India's rescue
she at the same time does not hesitate
to train the guns upon poor, suffering
Crete, and by shot and shell and block
aiding the island compel that brave little
handful of heroic people to either die Of
want or submit to serfdom and savagery.
This, too, is the hypocritical nation that
is seeking an arbitration treaty With
this country for the ostensible purpose
of peace. No doubt she is correct in
saying she desires peace with us because
we are Indifferent whether she does or
not, but when she finds portion of the
globe that is weak and struggling to be
free she becomes the oppressor. either as
principal or accessory, wherever she
finds it to her commercial advantage to
do so. Human hearts or human suffer-

She is amply able to lift the burden
which she has imposed upon the people
of India, and she should do it and cease
passing around the hat to other nations
to repair the injury she has wrought.
She drove Ireland into starvation upon
more than one occasion. not because
there was not plenty in the. land; ;sbut
because the people were not allowed to
touch what they themselves had pro-
duced. But while she was ruthlessly
snatching the food from Irish mouths.
food that was their own-2she graciously
permitted these same mouths to beg
from the world outside. England has no
shame. She loves power, and at the
same time she breads it. When over
matched, she is gentle, soothing, caress~
ing, as she is today with the United
States. Still, Knowing all this, We of
this country will not permit the people
of India to die from hunger, no matter
what punishment the English them
selves deserve. --s-e--~--

The following utterances of Rev. DR..
Stafford, Washington City, in reference
to the permanency Of tho Irish national
aspiration has the true ring to it:
"Others have been conquered and ac-
cepted defeat; others have been wronged
and acquiesced in wrong; others have
been reduced to slavery and been con-
tent to remain slaves, but the Irish peo-
pie have never accepted defeat; never
acquiesced in wrong and never have been
content to be held in bondage Ireland is
a. nation by race, by tradition, by his
tory, by literature, by sentiment, by
geography, by all the characteristics
that make a people a nation, and so
great and so strong, so permanent and so
indestructible is her national honor that
centuries of misfortunes have not been
able to destroy it in her."

Prof. Fiske:
A remarkably eloquent and searching
dissertation on the theistic as"compared
with the pantheistic conception Of God
has been published In pamphlet form
from the Catholic University Bulletin of
last month. The author, who finds his
text but not his conclusions, in John
Fiske's "Idea of God,'' is the Rev. DIR.
Edmund r. Shana han, one of the profess
sors of philosophy in the Catholic En,-
versity at Washington. It may be read
with intellectual pleasure and moral
profit by Christians of every creed and
likewise by philosophers of every shade
of theological opinion; for DR.. Shana-
hans literary style is as clear and di-
rect as his reasoning powers, and in him
extensive learning has not stif1ed the
faculty Of using it to the best advantage.

that cannot sbs rsadiiy recalled have
transpired during that period. 49, !. {
England has hadoubtedly made great
strides In population, wealth and extep-
sion Of territory since Victoria came to
the throne. And yet the queen, who is
merely q figurelfead; has had little to do
with the progress made during her long
reign. The real rulers of England are
the prime ministers and their cabinets.
Through the efforts Of Mr.. Gladstone,
who was Is years old at the time of the
queens coronation, the British people
have made great advance in sixty years.
and it is emin@ntly just and proper that
the English ana Scotch, who have bene-
flied by British legislation during the
queens reign, should celebrate the an.
niversary of her ascension to the throne
on magnificent scale, as they are go
ing to do.
But what about the queens Irish sub
jects? The British garrison at Dublin
Castle have been the first to celebrate
the event Lord Cadogan, the Irish
viceroy, who is paid the enormous salary
of 100000 a year, recently gave party
at the castle in honor of the queens
jubilee, but SO far as we have seen no
Irishman pretending to. have any ma
tionalistic sentiment attended the recep-
tion. 1t was only the place-hunters and
3,, ~ rxs~
ment who graced the occasion by their
presence and drank to the health of her
gracious majesty. ,~i
The Irish people have no good reason
to be jubilant over the queens diamond
jubilee. At the time of her accession to
the throne Ireland had population of
5000 900, and at the present time it is
about half Of that. The poverty of the
people has kept pace with the decrease
in population and the Irish of today are
clamoring for their rights, as they were
then. During the last sixty years Ire
land has been systematically robbed by
overtaxation, coercion acts have been
enforced to pacify the people, and scme
of the nOblest men of Ireland have been
executed, imprisoned and banished by
her consent. She condescended to pay
two brief visits to the country during
her reign and has never manifested anv
interest in the welfare of her Irish sub
jects No wonder that the people of
Dublin refused to allow tLeir O'Connell
street to be defaced by a statue Of
Prince Albert, of SAKE Coburg Gotha, the
royal consort of her Britaunic majesty.
In our opinion it is time for Victoria
to abdicate and gfVe the Prince of Wales
chance. She is. now back number.
Of all the great statesmen and warriors
who witnessed the magnificent pageant
of her coronation sixty years ago, the
only one alive to witness the celebration
of her coming jubf1ee is Gladstone. The
rest have depaftad to that bourne

THE INDIAN SCHOOLS.

Much precious time has been lately:
consumed in the United States senate.
in the discussion of government appro-
preparations for the educat :on of Indian
children-the wards of the nation-sev-
eral Of the senators alleging that any.
appropriation made to sectarian or de-,
nominationaI schools is against the
spirit of the constitution and in favor
of the union of church and state, which
the constitution explicitly forbids.
Senator Allen, of Nebraska, forcibly
illustrated what the fathers Of the re-
public understood by the ph ase Church
and state,'' showing that a union of
church and state cannot exist except
where there is church by law estab-
lished as in the m0narchical countries
of Europe and where the subjects are
taxed for it's support, even though they
may not profess it's doctrines but belong
so some other church with different
form of belief He believed that the
government of the United States ought
to observe and fulfill the obligations it
assumed when it entered into contract
with any religious organization or
Christian body that had in charge the
education of the Indian youth of the
land.
j., The other day, Senator Vest, of Mis-
souri,, spoke in the. same strain, and
took occasion to pay high and deserv-
ing compliment to the Catholic church
for the splendid results it had achieved
in the civilization of the aborigines. The
debate was on the provision Of the bill
establishing "sectarian"- Indian schools,
the word "sectarian" being used for
Catholic" as all Protestant schools are
supposed to be non-sectarian by certain
senators representing the New England
states. In the course of an able ad
dress, which did credit to the liberal
mind of the senator from Missouri, he
is reported to1shave said: "He knew
that what he safd would subject him to
severe criticism: Hi was brought up a
Protestant, and' Ra&Ino connection with
the Roman Cath6lfto Church. But he had
no sympathy with that cowardly and
ignorant sentihentaithat any religious
denomination cbulRdeface our liberties.
He had been reared to believe the Je-
suits were opposed To republican instft'l-
tions. But he had Travelled through the
Indian country, visiting the schools, and
had found thena q travesty on education
except when conduGAed by the Jesuits.
Broken-down preachers and defunct pol
iticians were deatsttut. to the western
country to teach the Indian children.
He had found that the only Indian
schools accomplishing any good were
those conducted by the Jesuits. The
ceremonial of the Catholic church
seemed to appeal to the Indians. In con-
clusion. the senator said he would infln-
itely rather see the Indian Catholics
than savages. He did not belong to that
sect who would rather see an Indian
damned than see him In the Catholic
church. :. :-s,-s.

The Irish National Alliance has issued
an appeal from it's headquarters in New
York, urging all Irish-Americans to
unite under the auspices of that society
and claiming it does not seek to inter-

organization, but to unite ell Irish soci-
eties in one confederation, with the sole
aim of achieving absolute independence
for the old land. Happily, the Irish in
