Archbishop Ireland Speaks.

Washington, Feb. 6.-Archbishop John Ireland of St. Paul was the principal speaker at the annual banquet of the Carroll Institute held here tonight. He sought to disabuse his hearers of the impression which he believed prevailed among Catholics that they suffered be- cause of their religion. suggesting in this connection that many persons of that faith appeared evidently anxious of be- ing self-persecuted. He asserted that Catholics do not suffer because of their religion and said the idea that they did Is gradually disappearing. They have. he said. a better chance of accomplishing what they desired than formerly. Instead of waiting until measures prejudicial 10 their interests were adopted they should protest against any alleged infraction of their rights and they would be given resnectful attention.
