the pope bestowed it upon the Australian
prelate and he has not yet vouchsafed
to raise Archbishop Walsh to the ,ug-
nifty Of wearing a red cap. Had the
archbishop been like his predecessors
Cullen and McCabe, he would have long
since been elevated to the cardinalate
through the solicitation Of the British
government
Cardinal Moran is quite correct in say
ing that the insurrection of '9S was q
crime on the part of the government
History, however, does not sustain him
in stating that the rising was a blunder
on the part Of those who participated
in it. The fact Of the matter is that The
people took the hills for self-preserva-
ton. Wexford was under martial law.
III the people were out after sunset they
would be shot by the yeomanry, and if
they remained in their homes they
would be burned to death by the brutal
oranSemen or tortured and maltreatel
by the licentious soldiery. The only
chance for safety was to take the field
and fight for life and liberty. Right
nobly did they meet their enemies and
put the cowardly rufians to flight. With
hardly any arms but rude weapons, and
commanded by men unused to war, they
displayed the valor of their race ana
met disciplined troops without quailing
No lrishman need be ashamed OF afraid
OF speaking Of '9S, and none but an
anglicized Irishman like Cardinal Moran
would raise his voice against honoring
the memories of the brave heroes who
died for their country one hundred
years ago. Thank God, we know of no
other dignitary in the Catholic church
who is so devoid of patriotism as to
attempt to throw cold water upon this
national celebration. Cardinal Moran
may influence men OF Irish descent at
the antipodes, but he cannot deter men
OF the Irish race in every other quarter.
OF the globe from going to the Emerald
Isle this year TO animate the dropping
spirits OF their kindred in the old land
and join them in celebrating the valor
and patriotism of the Irish rebels of the
last century.

Last Tuesday the second trial of the
suit of Selma Clcwctt against the House

damages fer alleged false Imprisonment

ST. Paul before Judge Bunn The case

public for three weeks last fall. the jury
failing to agree after being out for thirty
hours. The attorney for the plaintiff. one

examination of witnesses on the first
trial and displayed unmistakablc traits

dress he made allegations rejecting on

attempt 10 suhstantiate them by the tes-
timony CT his disreputable Witnesses
In tho present trial he will not y,
permitted to introduce so much irrele-
want matter as before. The result of The
first trial. as already stated, was a dis
agreement OF the jury. which stood s tc
for the House of the Cool Shepherd.
The defendants have secured cX-NIayor
c. d. O'Brien to assist Gen. Clapp and j.
ID. O'Brien in the second trial. The first
day was consumed in wrangling over the

position that Roman Catholics should
be excluded on the ground that they can
not give the case fair trial in con:e-
qucncc Of the teachings of their church

at stake. These unfoundcd statements
were branded as false and libelous Ivy

with emphasis declared that any man
who claimed that tie Christian church

A BRITISH CARDINAL ON 'e8.
telegram from London, dated g


ult. brought to the American people the
strange Intelligence that Cardinal Moran.
Of Sydney, New South Wales, the most
influential and powerful Catholic pre-
late i'll the Australian possessions, has
put the centenary celebration Of the Irish
rebellion Of 1898 under the ban. The
dispatch further informs the American
people that as a result of the prelale's
opposition the shipload of Irish Aus
tralans which was to have left Sydney
in April will doubtless be reduced to :.
mere handful. His eminencc is reported
to have said among other things:
Il will do everything in my power to
oppose the centenary celebration. The
'9S movement was tcrriple crime and
a terrible bllnder, crime on the part
of the government that forced on tine
revolution and blunder on the part Ct
every friend of Ireland who took pal c
in it. Even to celebrate the hundrcdth
anniversary of this would be a crime
and blunder in itself. When we celebrate
the centenary of anything 1t is to set
thing that has been source OF benefit
and honor to the people But to cello
brate the centenary Of a national move
ment that was a blunder and Il crime is
to lead people in very wrong lines
In recent interview with a repre-
sentative of the Sidney Freeman, the
cardinal gave a sketch of his family
history in connection with the rebellion
CT '9S. saying that his grandfather, M.
Cullen. barely escaped hanging at the
time, while three of his grand-uncles,
named Cullen, Brennan and Walsh, We're
shot as rebels 1t will be seen that none
Of his relatives bearing the name IT
Moran suffered death in the cause. It
appears, however. according to the
reporter, that his father when a
young man displayed too much pa
trutc ardor to suit the authorizes,
and was within one inch OF losing his
life" so you see" continued the cardi-
nal, that instead Of looking with cold
ness on the rebellion and the rebels, l
have good reason to have a warm spot
in my heart for the men of 9S." In tie
same Interview he said Let us cele-
bratc the valor of the men Of '9S-not
their folly or their failures" That is
far different from his later utterance
that ''he will do everything in his power
to oppose the centenary celebration"
The Irish people owill have their cee-
bration in spite oflthe opposition of his
eminence, and if tho Irish of Australia,
have the spirit oftnen they will resent
the interference of this Anglo-Irish &C.
clesiastic in the matter. Instead Of one
shipload of passengers from Sydney to
ireland there ought to be two to en-
phasizc their protest against his med
ding in the celebration of '9S.

that these books maintained that Cath,-
lies considered the Pope to be Gods rep
resentative upon"earth; that the Popc's
commands and the commands, conse-
quently of the clergy under the Pope,
were superior to- the commands OF any
civil authority; fthat a good Catholic
might violate with impunity any civil
law, any oath binding him to civil lu-
tbority, if the commands of the church
or the eNigencies of the church
seemed to demand such violation; that
hence Catholic could not Judge fairly
where any Catholicinstitution like the
House of the Good Shepherd, might be
charged with violating the civil law
The attorneys for the defense de-
clared that religious tests had never been
applied before in this country when Sc

show that the doctrines he rected

The first man examined by Butts said
he thought he had been baptized a
Catholic and had gone once to confess
sion; but he had never been to COM
munion and had only been once TO

Catholic did not satisfy Butts, who
challenged him for actual bias. 1ne
Judge, however, found the challenge
mot true" and the so-called Catholic
returned to the jury box, but may be
excused later on a percmptory chal-
lenge
We are glad that Hon. G. D. OBricn
has been engaged in case which is in
stisated by bigots Of the A. p. A. type.
Cen. Moses e. Clapp and J. D. OBricn
were too lenient with Butts and his
client in the former trial. The plaintiff
is a self-confessed female of bad rell..r
who gave birth to Legitimate offspring
before her reception into the Catholic
home. She is supported In the case by
the anti-Catholic bigots in the state
capital, as we'll as by the managers aal
patrons Of all the abodes of infamy in
the city. Her witnesses should receive
but scant courtesy from the attornaJ IS
for the defense. Their evil lives should
lie held up to the scorn of the public,
even at the risk of concentrating the at
mosphcre of the court room and the
morals of the curious crowd attending
the trial. Twelve respectable men, ir-
respective Of creed but devoid of SEQ
tartan prejudice, can be selected to at
as jurors in the case and render an hon
est verdict according to the law and the
evidence. After thorough nvestig
ton OF the charges made by this erring
woman and her unprncipled attorney,
we have no hesitation in predicting that
the House OF the Good Shepherd will
come out Of the trial unscathed, aud
completely eXCnerated from all blame
in Pre- serving proper discipline within its
walls.

A. 0. Il. NOTES.

The February calendar OF Holy Ros-
airy Church" has the following compIi-
mentary words to say for the order:
There is an organization in cur
midst that is not sufficiently recog-
nized by our people. We mean
the Ancient Order of Hibern-
ians. We are in a position to know
the object of this society and it's BENEFITS
to it's members, and we unhesitatingly
recommend it to any one who is eligible
for membership. The society is essen
TALLY Catholic, and only practical Catho-
lies may join its ranks. It's object is
fraternal; to engender charity and broth
erly love in its members and a deeIer
affection for Ireland; whilst it teaches
stars and stripes. But apart from this
there is a feature connected with the
order in this city that should make it
an object of interest to those having any,
one depending on them. We refer to
the insurance which the order issues.

vide for his wife, every father for his
