VETOED BY THE PRESIDENT.
His Reasons for Disappearing the Bill
for the Relief of A. T.. RedstOne.

The Presidents message vetoins the bill
for the relief of Albert r. Redstone was
read in the Senate today. Mr.. Redstone is
well known in this city for the part he
took in the invasion of the Coxey army a
few years ago.
The President states his objections TO the
bill as follows:
First 1t assumes that the beneficiary,
Albert e. RedstOne. sustained a loss by
the incorporation of his pre--mption claim
within the limits of the TERRA forest re-
serve. This reserve was established by
executive proclamation of February IA
1873. and contains the following saving
clause for the protection of existing
claims under the public land laws: tHere
the President quotes this clause.) Mr..
Redstone did not sustain any loss by
rights. if he had any, at that time were
fully recognized and protected by this pro-
vision in the proclamation.
Second Mr.. RedstOnes presumption de-
claratory statement was filed April g. 1889
and alleged settlement upon the same day.
The land covered thereby had not been
proclaimed for sale and under sections
226l and 2261 of the Revised States Mr.
RedstOne had thirJy-three months from the
date of bis settlement within which to
make proof and payment fC- this land.
but; in fact. he never attempted to make
such proof or payment. His pre-ernption
claim had therefore expired by operation
of law long before the creation Of the re-
serve. After his filing had thus expired
Mr.. Redstone was cited by the land de-
partment to show cause why his claim
should not be declared a an end and his
filing formally Cancelled upon the public
records, but he made no response or de-
Tense, and thu filing was accordingly can
celed.
Third. The commissioner of the general
land office reports that the investigation
made under the supervision of his office
shows that Mr. Redstone had actually
abandoned the land covered by his pre-
emption claim before the reserve was es-
tablished.
Fourth. The commissioner of the gen
eral land office reports that an examina-
ton made under the supervision of his
office shows that the improvements placed
upon this lard during the life of this pre-
emption claim and thereafter abandoned

HOLY CROSS COLLEGE
Ground Broken for New Institution Adjoin-
ing Catholic University.
Building to Be Finished by Septem-
her Next and Dedicsted in oc-
tOber-The Plans

The Very Rev. DR.. Zahm provincial of
the Congregation of the Holy Cross. pur-
chased last October the beautiful tract of
land known as Rosemont adjoining the
Catholic University, with the view, as The
Star stated at the time, of erecting on it
a college for the use of advanced ecc'e-
siastical students of his order 1t was then
announced that work on the contemplated
building would be commenced at an early
date, and in confirmation of this prediction
ground was broken yesterday and the pre-
dictfon made that Holy Cross College, the
name of the new institution will be ready
for occupancy early next September
In the presence of Monsignor Conaty. rec
tor of the Catholic University, Mr. A. Won
Herbulis. the architect, and Mr.. Owen Dom
nelly who has the contract for erecting
the building Dr. Zahm after determining
the exact site of the new structure, showed
a spade into the ground and threw aside the
first shovelful of earth. Mgr. Conaty who is
much interested in this new addition to
the university group of buildings, raised
the second shovelful. The corners of the
building were afterWard located by the
architect and contractor, and few hours
later large force of men were busily en-
gagged in the work of excavation.
Style of Architecture.
The plans for Holy Cross College have
been drawn by Mr.. A Won Herbulis. the
well-known architect of this city. The style
of architecture is purely Corinthian, and
while embodying some of the most attract
i've features of such famous and imposing
structures as the Lichtenstein palace In
Vienna and the Palazza Farnese of Rome,
it is nevertheless of chaste simplicity and
admirably adapted for the purpose for
which it is destined. The exterior of the
edifice will be of Indiana limestone and
Vermont granite, which will be so distrib-
uted as to bring out in bold relief the ex-
ternal beauties of the building.
The interior arrangements have received
particular attention both from Dr. Zahm
who is an old college man. and thoroughly
familiar with all the great educa tional in
stitutions of this country and Europe and
from Mr. Won Herbulis, who has made a
special study of the sanitary as well as of
the artistic features of modern architect

HOLY CROSS COLLEGE.

ure. The plumbing and ventilation, it is al
legged, are all that could be desired, and it
is predicted that Holy Cross College will be
second to no institution of learning in the
country in the perfection of its appoint
ments
DR.. Zahm's Plan.
Notre Dame University, of which Holy
Cross College is a branch, is famous for
the teauty of its many buildings. In Sc
lecting the plans for the new building DR..
Zahm, it is said, wished to have structure
that would be worthy of the institution
with which he has so long been identified.
The result is therefore gratifying to him,
and the opinion is that Notre Dame will
have every reason to be proud of her
youngest daughter in the capital Of the ma
ton.
Holy Cross College, as was stated in The
Star, is intended for those members of the
Congregation of the Holy Cross who have
taken their degrees in the University of
Notre Dame, and who are here to complete
their theological course, or who are to do
postgraduate work in some of the many
departments of the Catholic University.
Most of the students of the new establish
ment will equip themselves for future work
in the various educational institutions con-
Quoted by the Congregation of the Holy
cross in the new and the old world. Others
still will prepare themselves for missionary
and cognate work, for which such wide
fields have been opened in our recently ac-
QulTeQ territories.
Higher Education.
Dr. Zahm, as is well known. is an ardent
advocate of the higher education of the
clergy. His books and contributions TO the
press are full of the subject, and now that
he has been given charge of the province of
his order in the United States, it is under
stood. he is determined to put in execution
what he has SO long and so strenuously
been urging as one of the prime necessities
of our age and country. Like the eloquent
Bishop Spalding, DR.. Zahm is of the opn-
ion that the education of priests should be
the highest education of man..
In connection with Holy Cross College,
Dr. Zahm, it is said, proposed organizing
at Notre Dame a special school for candi
dates for the priesthood who have not the
means of educating themselves. To these
deserving youths the provincial of Holy
Cross intends to extend a helping haHd
and thus secure for the service of the
church many who would otherwise despair
of ever realizing their dreams OF being
elevated to the priesthood
Holy Cross College, as stated, is to be
, completed early next September, but II
will not be formally dedicated until Oc-
tober. at the annual meeting of the board
of directors of the Catholic University. The
archhishops of the country will then like
wise have their annual meeting. In Cath
Ollie circles the event promises to be the
most important which has occurred since
the solemn opening nine years ago of the
Catholic University of America.

wATTERsoN,s REPLY.
What He Says to the Political Ad-
veuturer.

'The globe is shutting up like a tele'
scope; and, through the smaller end
one can see farther than Jefferson saw
through the larger. Manila is not as
far from Washington under modern
conditions as New Orleans was in JEFF
ferson's day; California was harder to
reach at the date of the Gadsden pur-
chase. Every year the world grows
smaller. Yet the Gulf States of the
South, negro-ridden and impoverished.
have stood apart helpless, seeing the
narrowing stream quite pass them by,
and, just as great ocean outlet is
offered them, come a troop of penny
trumpeters to toot the cant about the
consent of the governed'-whose own
author did not consider it when the en-
largement of his country was in
volved-and to drone about constitu-
tional forms, which have at no time
stood against the expanding desires of
the practical needs of a people essen,
TALLY enterprising and progressive"
This transfer is inevitable. All that
the POLITICAL adventurer in American
politics can do with his sophomore
ebullitions of mistaken patriotism and
his rudimentary notions about inter-
national policies will be to obstruct and
delay it. If the Gulf States are true
to themselves they will stop him in his
mad career. They will rise en- masse
and show him that they also know a
thing or two. They will impress upon
his understanding the fact that he is
not upon vote catching tack. They
will fling aside any party which dares
step across the pathway of their pros
perity and which proposes to manure
their wasted fields and to fill their
hungry mouths with commonplaceS
about "the consent of the governed"
They will say to him as we say to him,
"Sir, the South cannot live forever on
cobwebs." They will say to him, as
we say to him, ''Sir, we do not get our
bread and butter out Of politics, any,
how, and, as between Wheeler and Lee
and you've follow Wheeler and Lee,
and the flag, and the further it carries
us the better They will say to him,
as we say to him, "Sir, the Mckinley
administration may be all you say IL
is, but we will settle with Aguinaldo
first and consider Mckinley afterward.
and meanwhile we have our convictions
and our opinions. and do not mean to
fool away our time watching to see
what the Administration does in order
that we may do exactly the opposite,
as you seem to be doing" If the Gulf
States will do this. all will be well.
We shall be on high, safe ground; in
the matter of political, partisan inter-
est equally prepared for victory or de-
feat, and, in either event, quite sure
of the future.-I4ouisville Courier-Jour-
nal
