Our non-Catholic fellow citizens
have done US the justice to believe
that the sole arms with which the
Catholic church could wish to widen
its territory, are those of truth, of vir-
tue, and of charity; that one of its
cardinal principles is to render honor
and obedience to country, and to
country's laws; that it would not wish
to live. if, by living, it were not help
ing to make souls pure, to lessen In
the world sin and misery, to raise So
ciety to higher spiritual stages, to
bring down upon earth the Kingdom
of the Father. Who is in Heaven. All
this, our nom Catholic fellow citizens
have been willing to believe; SO be-
lieving that they have allowed US full
freedom of action, and put US on our
mettle to show ourselves worthy of our
professions. Not seldom even have
they been liberal contributors to our
charities and works of education. May
our pleasant relations with our non
Catholic citizens be never broken

"You have said. according to the

this terrible act. God grant it may
be so. The penalty of the crime for
which you stand convicted is fixed by
this statute and it now becomes my

FLAX CROP is SAFE.
Reports of Heavy Losses Disputed by
Duluth Grain Men,

Duluth, Sept. 27.-There have been
rumors that the flax crop of the north
west has been injured 5, 900, 600 bushels
by rains, and that the quality has been
greatly hurt. Interviews with some of
the best posted commission men and
elevator operators in Duluth regarding
damage to fax by recent rains disclose
the fact that very little actual damage
has been done. They call attention to
the fact that the heavy rains occurred
where the flax crop was lightest, and
that while all the northwest has been
damp thirty days, only small per-
centage of field damage occurred.
@. 81. Thornton, who makes a study
of flax conditions, says: "It is sur
prising how small percentage of
northwestern fax is cut. Practically
the entire crop has been ripe two
weeks, but farmers preferred letting it
stand rather than take chances on the
weather. One not familiar with
North Dakota and northern Minnesota
conditions cannot realize the immense
amount of field work involved in saw
ing this years large diversified crops.
1T would not be surprising if the
bulk of the flax movement does not
take place till November or December
[ expect to see October and November
receipts run 10 to 10 per cent rejected,
but the idea of cutting down the pre-
vious estimates of the yield is ridicu-
lous The northwest has raised fax
crop that exceeds all expectations, and
it 10 ks AS though the farmers would
get large price.

cZoLGoSz TAKEN TO AUBURN.
Doomed Man Leaves Buffalo Under a
Strong Guard.

Buffalo, Sept. 27.-Czolgosz, the
doomed assassin of President McKin'
ley, was taken from Buffalo to Au'
burn state prison to await death by
electrocution during the week com
| mencing Monday, Oct. %. Sheriff
Caldwell and 16 men took the prisoner
in a special car attached to the Sec
ond section of train No. II. The train
left the New York Central sta
ton over that road at 1906 and the
railroad officials said that an effort
would be made to reach Auburn at
2:12 o'clock, which is schedule time.
Czolgosz was "sneaked" out the
back entrance of the Erie county jail,
surrounded by the II men and was
hustled into the special car, which had
backed down on the terrace tracks a
few rods in the rear of the jail a
minute before. The Jail was left at
just $40 o'clock.
Sheriff Caldwell arranged for the
departure, and his moves were kept
so secret and were so cleverly man
aged that no one but the guards, the
railroad officials and the newspaper
men who were on watch knew that
the assassin was being smuggled out
of the Jail. Sheriff Caldwell had given
orders to his most trustworthy depu-
ties to appear singly at the Jail al
different hours during the evening,
and he also made arrangements with
Superintendent Bradfield of the New
York Central to have an engine and
special car on the terrace tracks at
Church street at 9:25 o'clock. AS
soon as the car stopped, but few
rods from Their ear entrance to the
Jail,
czoIgosz Appeared
handcuffed to Jailer George N. Mitch.
ell and surrounded by the sheriff and
his deputies and Chief McMaster of
the Auburn police department. The
news that a car containing the muir
derer was attached to the train was
spread quickly and all the railroad
men in the station left their work to
Chamber upon the platforms and get
a look at the assassin. Finally, at
1906 o'clock, the word was given and
the train pulled out. Just before the
train pulled out representative of
the Associated Press saw CZolgosz
seated easily in seat and smoking
q cigar. In the seat with the prisoner
was Jafler Mitchell and in the oppo-
site seat, facing them, were the keep
er of the penitentiary and Deputy
Sheriff Hugh Sloan. The other guards
were seated in front and back of him
and on the other side of the car, di-
rectly opposite his seat.
These precautions were taken be-
cause the authorities received word
from some SOurca that the sheriff
might encounter considerable diff
Guilty in getting the prisoner to Au-
burn. Just what sort of trouble was
feared could not be learned, but great
care was taken that no advance news
of the departure of the train was tel
egraphed along the line.
