the people, and that such govern,
ment is one that must arrive by con-
sent and not by conquest"
| William II. Donahue, chancellor of
the knights of Columbus, followed
Father Cleary in an interesting talk on
the Kansas City convention, which he
attended as delegate, and drew forth
loud applause. He drew an invidious
comparison between the platform
adopted at Kansas City and the one
ut Philadelphia, and remarked that the
Republicans who met in the very cra-
die of liberty never made the slightest
reference to the Declaration of Indie,
pendence either in their platform or
| speeches. The reason he gave
for the omission of Boer sympathy
from the Republican platform
was that it was feared the Brit
ish parliament would pass resolutions
of sympathy for the Filipinos. and the
question of people living in glass hous-
cs throwing stones.
The next speaker was NJ. j. Gill.
Instead of speaking eXtempore like
Father Cleary and Judge Donahuc, he
read his address, and a beautiful ad-
dress it was. In the name of the mcln-
bers of the Church Of st. Charles he
paid touching tribute to Father
Cleary and referred to him as the
''grandest priest in America" The APP
plause which Mr.. Gill ELECTED by thus
eXtolling the "Soggarth Aroon' was
loud and long. AS Il perora,ion to his
panegyric Mr.. Gill produced Il vest
pocket prayer book containing check
for $G72.3O, and presented ii to Father
Cleary as a small token of the esteem
and love entertained for him by his
parishioners. Father Cleary was talk
ell completely by surprise and created
much laughter among the ladies by
saying it was the only time lie ever
knew men to keep Il secret so well. He
feelingly thanked his friends and culo,
gized the city Of Minneapolis and its
inhabitants for all the courtcsics eX-
tended to him during his residence in
the metropolis of the Northwest. He
declared that the rumor set atloat
about his leaving the city for good"
had no foundation. He was simply go
ing OH Il vacation and would come
straight back to Minneapolis. the city
of his love, as soon as it was over. n
rush was made towards Father Clearly
by the multitude and young and old,
Catholic and Protestant, shook his
hand and wished him Il pleasant jour-
ney by land and sea and safe return.
