The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1900-09-29

There is one Irish-American news
paper in the country that is booming
Mckinley for revenue only. 1t is pub
lished in New York and edited by a
Hibernian Hessian who attaches Ii.
D. and Phi. D. to his Norman cogno-
men. The fellow ought to have re-
manned in Ireland to back UP the Brit
ish government for cash.-Irish Stand
ard.
This is a cruel blow and would cal
most kin" a less sensitive man than
Dr. Walsh. But the Standard should
remember that while the doctor edits
one paper in favor of Tom Platt and
William McKinley-the American Her
ald-he publishes another-the Sunday
Democrat-that religiously supports
Richard Croker and Tammany Hall.
Besides being a great editor and Gaelic
scholar, the doctor has a long head for
Business.

Archbishop Martinelli, the Papa1 Del

Archbishop Martinelli, the Papal Del
egate to the United States, has yielded
to the request of the Southern prelates
and will open the new Cathedral at
Savannah, Ca, which is now almost
finished, on the site of that destroyed
by fire two years ago. In order not to
conflict with other engagements of the
Archbishop the date of opening has
been set for Oct IS, when Mgr. Mar
tinelli will dedicate the structure in the
presence of all the Bishops of the
South. and many, it is expected. from
other sections. The event promises to
be one of the most memorable from a
religious point of view in the history
OF Georgia, as the golden jubilee. or
fiftieth anniversarHt of the Savannah
See, which fell on July 10 last. is to be
observed coincident with the Cathe-
dral's opening. ~,

Buffalo Union and Times, all staunch
Republicans up to the time of this
stampede into the Bryan camp. While
we have no comment to offer, this
change Of sentiment is certainly sig
nificant of the drift of the times.

In another column of The Inter
mountain Catholic is told touching
little story of how the brave and noble
Sisters Of Charity died with their moth
erless charges from the Catholic or
phan asylum that was swept away in
the Galveston flood. They died as they
lived-faithful to their vows and duty
to the end. The soldier upon the bat
tlefeld. the sailor upon the sea, never
persisted in a nobler cause, and yet
there are in free America today, as
there were in the days Of the A. P. A,
men, and women, too, who are foul
enough to attempt to besmearch the
character of this majestic and self-sac-
rifcing sisterhood of the old Church.

Poor old Ireland 1t is threatened
with a blight to the potato crop and a
famine is feared. There is apprehen-
sion of the black days of 1847-4S being
repeated. The farmers are indeed fac
ing a very serious situation, fact that
was noted in Father Malone's letter
from Ireland TO The Intermountain
Catholic a few weeks ago. Later ad
vices say that ruin stares tens of
thousands of farmers in the face.
Spraying has failed to stay the progress
Of the disease which has attacked the
potatoes, and intermittent rains have
destroyed both corn and potatoes.
Black potatoes have already been dug
in Counties Mayo, West Kirk and Ker-
~, and the dread spots are appearing
on the stalks everywhere.

LITTLEFIELD Or MAINE.
Something About the Man Who Took
Congress by Storm.

Walter Wellman in Times Herald.
Littlefield Of Maine was the hero of the
day. He IL looked upon as the rising
man Of his state, and indeed Of the
house. Twice in six weeks has he con-
Quered the lower branch by force Of his
intellect. his learning In the law. his
courage. his skill as a public speaker.
Oddly enough. both his triumphs have
been In opposition to his own. the Re-
publican side of the house. The specta.
Gle Of a man of commanding intellectual
ability fighting his own party for con-
science sake Is SO novel In Washington
that even those who are unable to agree
with the man from Maine In his present
contention are among his most enthusis-
tic admirers.
Splendid type of the down-east Yankee
is Littlefeld. Six feet tall. large of body.
straight and well proportioned, strength
and energy both mental and physical are
stamped vividly upon him. lie has that
Maine characteristic of marshalng his
facts In platoOns of cavalry, which gallon
and rush and charge into action-Blaine
had 1t most strikingly; Reed had 1t, al
though he was slow of speech; Dinglcy
had 1t, though he tackled voice. and both
Hale and Frye at their best have 1t.
Littlefield Is cyclone in debate. His
facts, his Illustrations. his wit, his side
thrusts, come in such profusion and at
such an amazing rate that II Is all tho
most alert listener can do to keep up
with him. He beats the best stenogra-
graphers in congress. Nor do such able
and experienced debaters as Grosvenor,
Payne. Dalzell. Hopkins and others of the
Republican leadership care to measure
swords with him. They let him alone to-
day. None wished to take up the gage OF
battle which he so defiantly threw at
them. but all sat silent, uneasy and
nervous.
1t was calling. too. when they stopped
to think that this man came to Washing
ton for the first time less than three
months ago, and sixty days back had
never been heard of outside his native
state. In free America you can never
tell when great debater. great poet, a
great artist or great leader of the peo-
Pile is going to spring up right out of
the soil.

THEATRICAL.
"Sapho" at the Lyceum.

Largely because Of the amount of ad.
vertising that 'Sapho" received over
eighteen hundred persons crowded into
the Lyceum last night to see the pro-
duction. Many of these eighteen hum
dred persons went away disappointed
because the performance was compar-
atively clean and they expected 1t
would be indecent.
1t is not the Version of "Sapho" that
Miss Nethersole is giving I'm New York,
but one fashioned by Robert Whittier,
nephew of the Poet Whittier, from
Daudet's story. 1t follows somewhat
closely the version that Rejane pro-
duced in Paris. There was nothing in
the dialogue or situations last night
to give offense One may question the
propriety of putting on the stage plays
that are founded on the phase of life
with which "Sapho" deals, but in this
respect 1t is no greater an offender
than scores of other plays that have
been on the boards during the past
decade ana in the manner OF it's pres
entation 1t is less offensive than many
Of its predecessors.
The company at the Lyceum last
night was not perfect in it's lines, evil
IDENTIFY having produced the piece but
a few times. 1t Is headed by Miss Net
tie Elting. California actress, who
gave wen conceived presentation of
Fanny lie Grand. or Sapi.c, as she
was known to her Partisan intimates.

WWaY Down East.v

Way Down East" which enjoyed
such long and prosperous run at the
Manhattan theater, New York. last
season. will be presented in this city
for the first time on Friday and Satur-
day Of this week at the Lyceum. The
success of the play has been remark
able. 1t caters to all classes of thea
ter-goers and presents a strong moral
without a sermon being preached to
you. 1t is owing to this latter point
that it has aroused the interest of the
clergy in the different cities In which
it has been presented. During the en-
gagement at the Manhattan theater,
New York. numerous clergymen in
Brooklyn used it as a text for their
Sunday sermons.
Way Down East" depicts life as
one finds it in rural New Hampshire
and admits of elaborate staging. which
Manager William A. Brady has sup
piled. Probably the most conspicuous
scene in Way Down East" is the
snow storm which Is presented
throughout the entire third act.
