Notwithstanding the marvellous in

country will have to maintain ner
great strides for some years to come
to catch up with and overtake Ger

OF course the United States is MAX

now. and il the pending subsidy bill
becomes law she will progress more
rapidly than any other two nations
on earth for the next ten years.
But Germany is not idle meanwhile
During the past ten years ship build
ing in Germany has become great IN
dustry. Old wharves have been torn
away and new and larger ones con.
structed in their places. The present
capacity OF all the wharves does not
meet the demands of the German
merchant marine. Many orders must
still be placed in foreign countries. At
present twenty-five ships are being
built in England for Hamburg alone

His Life ~ Reeivse.
From the Iowa State Register.
INDIANAPOLIS. Nov. 22-Before
Benjamin Harrison was lawyer. sol.
der. diplomat and president, he vas a
lover Successful in everything upon
which he set his heart and mind. ne
vas equally successful in winning the
hand of the reigning belle of the little
Ohio city of Oxford. Shortly after the
general graduated from the university
there he vas engaged to Caroline
Scott, and soon after his removal 10
indianapolis she became the wife of
the man destined TO be the choice VI
the people of his country for the high
est position in their gift.
But to General Harrison's successful
counting of Caroline Scott there hangs
story of a man who loved the Oxford
girl with an affection perhaps as great
as that of the eI-president. and whose
life was ruined when she made her
choice and rejected his fervent suit.
The man was Benjamin Jenkins.
whose death yesterday in the hills If
California was given only brief men
ton In the western papers. Jenkins
was born in Ohio. Of good family. AMI
was comfortably situated. He grew
to young manhood and was sent 10
Miami University. at Oxford. to COM
plete his education. He made ais
mark at the college. He graduated
early in the SOS and left the college. a
disappointed and heart-broken man.
The gold fields Of the west. just then
opening up. offered him the promise
of excitement and adventure in which
he could plunge and forget his grief
and heartache. He gave no thought
to the degree that he had labored for,
nor to the opportunities held out in
the practice of law, for which he was
fitted both by nature and by educa-
ton. He joined the west-bound emf
grants and made his way to Trinity
river, where he began his career as a
miner and prospector.
Fate tried to recompense him with
fortune. for in few months Jenkins
had amassed $4,000. Then he re-
moved to new grounds. He could not
bear to remain quiet where there was
no change to relieve his mind of the
thoughts of the far-away Ohio girl.
He never returned to the East. He
never wrote or communicated in any
way with the friends of his youth.
He lived the life Of recluse. save for
the trips he often made to the town
at the foot of the hills where he pur-
chased his supplies. Last week he
left his home and went down to the
city to attend a fair. He was more
companionable than he had ever been
before Several days later party Of
loggers. on their way to the mountain,
stopped before his shanty door. He
did not respond to their calls. and up
on investigation it was found that
Jenkins was dead.

FASTER GREETINGS TO OUR

Catholic sends Easter greetings to
friends throughout the Intermountain
states.
Tt appreciates beyond measure the
snlendid support it is receiving from
the Catholic people generally in this
section. and will always strive to merit
this consideration on the part of its
subscribers by giving them a first-class
up-to-date Catholic newspaper.
1t is especially pleasing to the pub
fishers to know that our old Colorado
friends are steadfast in their loyalty to
their paper. which now appears in en-
Iarced form. but which is still pub

us heed them so that they may influ-

the performance of our Christian du-
ties! If we follow in spirit the suffering
Christ as He carries the Cross to Cal
vary; if we sorrow for our sins when
we reflect that they were the cause of
His death, and if we kneel in reverent
grief at His tomb, how soon do we not
forget all these things when Lent is
ended and the penitential admonitions
of the Church are no longer heardl
And yet each Lent marks an i'm
portant epoch in every Christian life
The one which is now about to finish
will be the last which many of us will
be allowed to keep on earth, and it be-
hooves us all, therefore, to make the
most profit out of it for our souls And
one of the best ways to do that is to
enter so thoroughly into the spirit with
which the Church would have us keep

BISHOP PoTTER's CHARGES.

A statement has been issued by Rev.
John ]. Wynne in reply to Bishop Pot
ter and Rev. Percy S. Grant, who Wis
it be published is made by Rev. Joseph
NJ. Alque, director of the observatory
at Manila, who is now at Washington
engaged in official business for the gov
eminent.
Calling attention to the published in
terviews in which the Bishop and his
secretary are quoted as having declared
that the taxes and fees for honestly adj
ministrations in the Philippines are ex-
cessive, the writer remarks that the
Bishop and his secretary were in the
Philippines but very short time, not
over three or four days; that it was
impossible on account of the war for
them to get information outside Of
Manila, and that the more serious
Filfpinos ignored their presence there.
The Bishop was quoted az saying that
the religious orders, except perhaps
the Jesuits, have robbed the people"
The writer says the Jesuits have mis-
General Bates, in a report of Dec. q
last, stated that the people there had
declared that the missionaries had
taken neither money nor property.
The writer wants the Bishop to ex-
plain his use of perhaps"
Further quoting his interview he
calls upon Bishop Potter for facts to
prove "such a grave and serious
charge"
That thousands of the people live
in practical concubinage," as charged
by the Bishop, is denied, although the
writer admits that some do live that
way, but asserts that it is true that
there, as everywhere, are found few
instances of this
That it was the Church taxes which
caused the people to revolt is emphatic
ally denied. In proof of this it is stated
that many of the most important
parishes in the archipelago are admin
istered by the natives themselves as
priests, including the cathedral at Ma
Mia, Naraquina, San Rogue of Cavite
and all the parishes on the western
coast of the island of Leyte: that in
these parishes 1.-The same ecclesiastical
law as to taxes was enforced by these
secular priests, and it is a matter of
history that nobody objected to it."

With Retaliation Of the Errors Which 1t Condemns
Translated from the Italian OF LFaleon1

! cumspection, contenting themselves
with a slow but apparently sure adj
vance toward the destined goal. They
have recourse now to one means now
to another, in the effort to separate
the faithful from the Roman Pontln
and the priesthood and render them in
different to their supreme pastor.
Sometimes they exclude the clergy
from all control over the public schools,
sometimes confiscate charitable en-
dowments under the pretence that they
are incentives to idleness, and establish
system OF legal charities in their
place" The people thus lose confidence
in their bishops and in the ecclesiastics
deputed to superintend the distribution
of the aims and to take charge of char
liable institutions, and the bishops and
ecclesiastics lose all influence over the
people. Again, in order to make the
faithful Oblivious of their duty to Rome
and to the supreme head of the church,
it is sought to prevent all direct COM
munication between them; and, there
fore, governments endeavor to consti-
tute themselves the sole mediums of
pontifical favor and even arrogate to
themselves the right to decide as to the
propriety of petitiOning for such favors
In this way the people, receiving spir-
itual favors only through the mediation
of the civil power are weakened in the
devotion to the Holy See, and cease to
cherish any sentiment of gratitude to-
ward the Roman Pontiff.
The Church does not fear the under
hand enemies, who thus seek to stand
between her and her children. She
knows that she will prevail over her
secret, as we'll as her open foes, it being
written that the gates of hell shall
never prevail against her. Conturben-
tur omnes inimici mel; avertantur
retrorsum ct erubescant valde veloci-
ter. Thus the Church prays, and her
prayer will be granted.

CLOSING WEEK OF LENT.

The sublime mysteries wherewith the
closing days of Christ's immortal career
were marked are commemorated by the
Church in the closing week of Lent,
upon which we are about to enter. His
triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the
agony in the Garden of Olives, the Last
Supper with the institution of the
Blessed Sacrament. His Trial, eondem-
nation, Passion, Crucifixion and Burial
these are the momentous events in
the early life of the Redeelner and the
history of the world which the last
weeks of Lent annually recall to our
minds and from which the Church
would have us derive salutary lessons.
Those lessons are so plainly to be
read that there is no necessity to point
out their character or to dwell upon
their importance But plain and all
important though they are, how few Of

DESERVED DISTINCTION.

Under the above caption, the Deseret
Evening News. the organ of the Church
of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints,
pays a splendid and worthy tribute to
the life and work and character of the
Rt. Rev. Bishop Seaman of Salt Lake.
The comment was inspired by tel
egraphic dispatch in the daily press to
the effect that our Bishop had been
named. among others, for the Arch
episcopal See. of Dubuque, Ia, to sue
coed the late Archbishop Hennessy.
While the Catholic people generally
will appreciate this expression of high
regard for their Bishop, coming as it
does from an official source of the dom
inant church in Utah, yet we are not
the least concerned over the prospective
removal of the eminent prelate from
our midst, even to occupy the more ex-
allied station of Archbishop in the an
cient Catholic Church.
Bishop Scanlan himself prefers to re-
main here in Utah where he has passed
the greater portion of his life; where he
pioneered the faith, where he laid
broad and solid and lasting the foun-
dations of the Church, where he is
known and respected and loved-here,
where his early ambitions are now be-
ing SO swiftly realized in the building
Of Cathedral, schools and orphanages;
here where he is doing Gods great
work.
The News editorial. to which refer
ence is made, is as follows:
The nomination of Bishop Seaman
for the high position of Archbishop in
the Roman Catholic Church. is appreci-
ated not only by his co-religionists in
Utah, but by many people who dissent
from his religious views. They respect
the prelate and admire him for his
consistency, ability and liberality Of
thought and action.
BY the latter term we do not mean
any latitude of opinion that would
weaken in the least his attachment to
the dogmas and discipline Of the great
ecclesiastical organization with which
he is identified, but a disposition to rec
ognize the legal right of other people
TO worship in freedom as conscience
dictates.
so far as we know, the Bishop has
not Joined in any of the deceptive and
intolerant measures adopted by sectari-
an preachers against the Mormons.'
He has maintained his own position
without improper interference with
theirs For this reason he is regarded
by them with esteem. and we wish him
the success that appears to await him.
"of course this nomination does not
mean, at present, his certain prefer
ment- That will depend upon further
action by the chief authorities of the
Roman hierarchy. But if ne shall
achieve this distinction, the people of
this region, while they would regret his
departure from among them, would re-
joice in his deserved promotion"
