An Explanation.

As managers of the finances of
St. Agnes Academy for the past
twenty years, I feel it duty to in
form the public in general, and the
Catholic congregation in particular,
that all the improvements AMI re-
pairs made on the Convent or
grounds have been paid for out OF
the Convent treasury, except Sl2OO
raised at fair given for the eN.
press purpose of getting money to
finish the Academy.
The Convent records show that
the Sisters have, out of their own
private purse, expended between
four and five thousand dollars on the
Convent grounds; such being the
case we do not feel disposed to leave
uncontrolled the report, that the
money collected to defray the cur
rent expenses of the Catholic
Church, has been used to pay for
recent improvements made in the
Convent yard, The property being
Diocesan it is the duty of the con-
gregation to improve and repair it,
hence if the late rumor we're true,
twould be simply a long neglected
duty fulfilled. To the many who
have aided us in our laborious work
we tender our sincere thanks, to the
few maliciousIy inclined we extend
our pity.

Hurrah for Senator Hoar of Mas
sachusetts. The other day he was
asked to attend a meeting of re-
publicans to discuss the Philippine
question, but refused, preferring to
speak openly in the senate. After
declaring he had not changed, said
eff we had dealt with the people OF
the Philippine Islands as we under.
took to deal with the people of Cuba
whom we deClared-and they Ger,
tainly had no better title--of right
ought to be free and independent
if instead Of undertaking to buy
them and then undertaking to sub,
jugate them by force We had as,
sured them of our purpose to re,
speCt their rights, to protect them
against foreign interference; to aid
them to restore order and to leave
them whenever they should desire
to the blessing of freedom and OF
self-government, we should have
had no war, We should have had
no loss of life. We should have had
no large expenditure of money. We
should not have trampled on the
doctrines upon which our own insti-
tutions are founded. We should
not have contradicted the pledges
of our fathers. We should not have
dishonored our own great history.
We should not have incurred the
undying hatred of the people of the
Philippine Islands. We should have
received from theirg ratitude every
thing in the way of commercial ad-
vantage or advantage of military
or naval station that their graft
tude would bestow. We should
have the gIory-with which the
glory of no other country in history
could be compared-of being the
great Hberator in both hemis-
pheres." 1t is not too late to do the
right thing by the Filipinos,

Senator Berry has introduced a
resolution in the United States
Senate, providing for the election
of members to that body by a direct
vote of the people. In this he is
exactly right. Corrupt buying of
votes in a number of state legisla-
lures, has secured seats in this high
body for designing milliOnaires.
We are truly glad to know that
both of Arkansas senators are
heartily in favor of their election by
direct vote of the people.

1t is strange that the British have
no more sympathizers in their fight
against the Beers, than they have
been able to draw around up to this
time. There is not a doubt but
what heads of governments-that
is the officials in power-would lend
their influence to British power, but
the common people, the people who
put in power these men, are all in
sympathy with the Beers, and eX-
pressions of this can be heard on
the streets, in the cafes and many
of the public prints. This is all
caused by luminosity against royal
