North Brookfeld, June 25.-From the
vatican at Rome, where abides Pope
Leo XIII, the visible head of the Cath
ole church, there has come forth a
royal edict to the French speaking
Catholics of North Brookfield, giving
the papal decision in the great fight
which they have waged to procure for
themselves parish and pastor of their
own.
This marks the elimination of one of
the most bitter civic struggles in the
history Of the Catholic church In the
Springfield diocese and indeed in the
country, inasmuch as the warfare has
held the interest Of Catholics all over
the United States and Canada and in
many cases trouble has been averted
because the people decided to await the
settlement of the issue in the case of
st. Joseph's parish.
His holiness has decreed that there
shall not be a separate parish for the
French Catholics of this town and at
the same time he discountenances by
his very verdict the revolt that has
been a matter of history for over two
years. The exact text of his letter can
not be ascertained, as the committee to
which it was sent through Ri Rev.
Thomas D. Beaver, bishop of Spring
field diocese maintains an absolute 81
1ence in the matter.
Nevertheless, after three days of per.
sistent work, The Spy reporter has
learned the facts of the case as they are
here being set forth.
To say that the committee for the
French speaking people is disappointed,
is putting it mildly, for they have ex-
pressed confidence at all times that mis-
holiness would see what they considered
the justice of their stand. The letter
has come in answer to one sent from
here to Rome on May %, which was
reported exclusively in The Spy. This
letter sent to the cardinal project Of the
propaganda was from the French
speaking secesslonists of this parish
and signed by their committee, Eugene
Mineau, J. A. Bowler and Joseph Lee
doux.
Immediate attention was given it and
an answer was sent to Bishop Beaver,
Consequently on June II a letter came
from Bishop Beaver, sumnoning the
committee to Springfield to hear the
answer from the cardinal project of the
propaganda, to their letter and We'd
nesday the committee of three went to
the episcopal mansion where the bishop
read to them the decision of the high
est tribunal Of the Catholic church,
which was in substance that their great
battle had been lost.
The committee returned to North
Brookffeld, and a copy of the cardinal
projects letter was sent to Eugene
Mineau. chairman. Mr.. Mineau has the
letter now, and is preparing TO make
his report to the French people in
mass meeting assembled.
Friday evening the executive com
mittee held a meeting and decided to
make its report at a general meeting
last night, but on account Of the ill
clemency of the weather, the meeting
was postponed until Monday night. In
connection with the letter, Rev. James

An Old Church,

FRosTBURG, MD, Sept. 20 1899.
To the MINING JOURNAL
Another monument standing beside
that of st. Melangell is that of Jor-
worth Drwyndwn, or Edward with the
Broken Nose, who was the father of
"Llewellyn, the Great" He was
otherwise deformed in the legs, which
the monument we'll describes. AS the
eldest son of Owen Gwynedd" he
was entitled to the sovereignty of
Gwynedd, or North Wales, but on ac-
count of his deformltles ne was not
suffered to reign. He fled to this
place IN ll76 from the cruelties of his
contentious brothers. His shield has
but family upon 1t this inscription
'Hic jacet Edwart." We are informed
by tradlloc that he was slain near
this place at spot called after him
'Bwlch Cross Jorworth.'
Lying across these monuments is
a very large rib, about three feet in
length, supposed by the people to be
the rib of Il gianteSs who was slain in
the mountains near by.
The church was remodelled to some
extent about three hundred years ago,
and later the old stone floor was re-
placed by one of tile.
The many strange things which |
saw and heard during my visit to this
old church were very interesting and |
trust you have enjoyed my account of
them. Yours truly,

A Paradox of the Day.

A correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun at Oakland writes of court case
at that place which developed the de-
plorable fact that
the plaintiff, white man. could neither
read nor write This was not at all astonish-
ing, as in a large area of Garrett county there
are 80 per cent of the people, and they are
white people, who cannot read or write
This man further stated that he did not know
his age, nor did his mother know it. He
was born and reared in Garrett county and
had number of grown sons and daughters,
but had never been in Oakland before and
had never up to this time seen the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad.
That statement ought not to occa-
sion surprise.
Of the votes cast two years ago for
and against the the merit system of
determining otfice-hodlng qualifica-
tions nearly o. of each 100 who ex-
pressed themselves in Garrett county
voted against it.

TOWN AND VICINITY.
Wanted-Water Meters.

Edward Winner gave voice last
week to a complaint that is more gen
eral than the authorities imagine.
The JOURNAL told him at the time
that the just method of taxing people
for the water used lies in the use of
meters.
This week the following paragraph,
taken from water works paper, was
handed to the JOURNAL:
All water should be supplied through
meters only, except for use of fire department
for extinguishing fires, and sewer departne nt
for flushing purposes Then low rates per
thousand gallons could be fairly and safely
made, so that free, liberal, legitimate use
may be had of the necessary service at a
minimum of cost. 1t is wellknOwn fact
that more water is wasted than is legitimately
used, and in all schedules of assessed or front
age rates, this item of waste has to be con-
sldered and thus the careful, proper user of
water is compelled to pay for a waste he does
not cause, and for which he should not be
obliged to suffer. Experience and records
show that selling water by measurement is
as proper and equitable to all concerned as
for any other commodity, and the great in
crease in the use of meters shows that this
fact is being rapidly recognized
1t is fair to presume that the town
of Frostburg takes 100000 gallons
daily.
This, at 20 cents a thousand gallons,
would yield $40 day, or 81 300 year.
To elephants, hotels and other large
consumers slight concessions could be
made.
With meter verifying Edward
Winners estimate that he does not
use over 5000 gallons quarter, he
should pay GO cents, instead of s.. 46
"a difference that would Justify him
in buying or paying the rent of a meter.
1t may be said that 20 cents thous-
and is high.
But Frostburg is a high place.
There is good deal less water above
than below the town. As the situation
appears now, the town will not only
be unable to get along without the
machinery it has, but will need more.
SO that, as a starter, 1t is better to
place the price high than too low. 1t
is easier to fall than rise.
AT 20 cents to the mass. however, the
cost will be Il good deal less to tamilies
than now. What matters 20 cents a
thousand to Edward Winner, for in
stance, if he saves under that rate
$1.S6.
The JOURNAL names 20 cents mainly
because the town needs over s. 600
revenue per annum from water.
The conclusion is inevitable that.
for the good of the town as a lust
dealer with the people, the wafer meter
should be introduced into the house
and business of every consumer.

Who is q Democratic

Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner says
"Goebel," democratic nominee for
governor of Kentucky, sis not a

Congressman Owens, of same State,
says "Goebel is a constituencies crea-
ture."
And Mr.. Altgeld, democracy's last
edition of Thomas Jefferson, says mo

But Mr.. Bryan, the incarnation of
democratic regularity, says "Goebel
is all right the kickers all wrong"
Before the injection of free coinage
and free riot dogma into democratic
expressions of principle, such division
over orthodoxy was quite impossible.
