PORTLAND UNIVERSITY.
Has Passed Into Possession, Of Arch
bishop Christie.

The long expected transfer of the
property formerly known as the Port
land University was formally made
to His Grace Archbishop Christie OH
Saturday. July 20. says the Catholic
Sentinel. BY this arrangement the
portland anniversary. fflffiffiffiffiffi
university building and % acres of
valuable land adjoining it come into
possession of the archdiocese. Fire.
quent announcement has been made
in the local press recently that the deal
was already consummHted, but such
information was premature, us His
Grace wished TO have the University
Land company satisfy all claims
against the property before he would
assume control. The cherished wish
of Archbishop Christie is at length
realized in securing this splendid prop
erty as an institution of learning for
young men. On his coming to Port
land two years ago, he perceived it's
advantageous location at the door of
the metropolis of the Northwest and
knowing the great necessity and i'm
mense possibilities of such an institu.
ton of learning. he at once set about
procuring it, and now that he has sue
ceeded in his wish, he will exert every
effort to build UP great educational
center at University Park.
Henceforth the institution will be
known as the Columbia University,
The property is admirably adapted for
the purposes for which it is intended,
being situated on commanding emil
nence within full view of the city and
sufficiently isolated to furnish the quiet
required for serious studies. 1t is the
opinion of all who have visited the
grounds, that it is the most beautiful
site on the entire peninsula.
Plans for renovating and remodeling
the building have been prepared, and
the work will be pushed vigorously.
Archbishop Christie announces that
students will be received at Columbia
University irrespective of religious be-
lief, while, of course, it is designed
principally for the education of Cath
Ole young men. 1t is expected that
the university will be opened in Sen.
TENDER. During the first year a COM
mercial and classical course will be
conducted. Afterwards the scope of
the institution will be enlarged.
All recognize the need of such an
institution in this section, and His
Grace hopes that the generous citizens
Of Portland will aid him in furnishing
it. 1t will assuredly benefit Portland
and take foremost position among
it's many institutions of learning. Arch.
bishop Christie is to be congratulated
on bringing this matter to a success
full issue, and while the principal work
is yet to be accomplished, with the
assistance Of the Catholics of the arch
diocese, Columbia University will &C.
complish incalculable good in creating
powerful influence for religious and
scientific truth.

Blood. The .butcher of omdurman'

Blood The "butcher of Omdurman"
has been n failure in the work of con-
quest. Not long since he declared that
if the war is not finished by the end
of August he would apply to be reliev
ed of his position. The war is likely
to last for an indefinite period, and
as no more yeomanry will be sent,
they being worse, than useless, the
Beers will have weaker enemy to
fight than formerly.
The 10000 British soldiers to be
withdrawn from South Africa are
needed in India, where the people are
very turbulent. An uprising is dread
ed. The Ameer of Afghanistan and
the Car of Russia are supposed to
be encouraging the disaffected Hindoos
to revolt Millions of British subjects
in that once opulent empire have died
of hunger, and instead of preserving
their lives by adequate appropriations
the wealthy government that rules
them appealed to the charity of the
world. 1t had millions of money to
spend for the subjugation of the Beers
and allowed it's Indian subjects to die
of famine.
Every one knows the sad story of
India since the days of Give and
Warren Hastings. Time and again the
oppressed people rose in rebellion
against their taskmasters, but their eff
forts were abortive. England was too
strong for them and they had to sub
nit They have been governed as
serfs, but are still FESTIVE under the
British yoke. The day of their deliv-
erance may be drawing nigh. There
may be no great difference between
Russian despotism and British tyranny,
but the Hindoos evidently desire a
change for the better or for worse.
They cannot be treated with more Sc
verify by Russia than they have been
by England. Now is the time for the
Car to begin his operations. England
has no friend among the nations, and
there is no possibility that the United
States will rush to the aid Of the
mother country" in case of war. Eng
land is facing a great peril.

ants while they themselves cannot OBJ

AT an Orange meeting in the North
of Ireland, the Duke of Manchester and
parsons of the church of England de-
clared on the 18th of July, the anniver-
suary of the battle of the Boyne, that
they would oppose any and every at
tempt of the government to establish
or endow an Irish Catholic university,
and Salisbury, Balfour and other
statesmen will heed their bigoted ut
terances and refuse to do justice to the
overwhelming majority of the Irish
people. Is that the way that Ireland
is to be governed in the future as in
the past? No wonder the country is
discontinued and anxious to get rid of
the British yoke.

MORE TROUBLE FOR ENGLAND.

In the British parliament the other
day Tory member informed the as
sembly that unless the war in South
Africa came to speedy termination
the European powers would compel a
cessation of hostilities. He declared
that he was in possession of informa-
ton to that effect from an authentic
source, and that the war of extermina-
ton should cease. Another member
corroborated his statement, and the
Tory leaders listened in silence with
out uttering a word.
Things are in bad shape for the Brit
ish in South Africa and they are daily
growing worse. All imperialists real
ize the fact, and no doubt but that
the government is anxious for peace
with honor. The rumor set afloat to
the effect that Emperor William and
Ambassador Choate are willing to act
as pacificators is an indication that
England will not reject overtures for
peace. In fact, for long time Kit
chener has been trying to bring the
war to an end by negotiations with
Botha, but has utterly failed. The war
still continues with undated vigor on
the part of the Beers, and neither brib-
cry nor terrorism will induce the burgh-
ers to surrender.
Now comes the news that 10000 Brit
ish troops will be withdrawn from
South Africa and that Lord Kitchener
will be superseded by Sir Bindon
