CONSERVATION in the state departments
1t means retirement, probably, on
large scale. 1t means cabals and boy
cotting. But the very first thing any
chief secretary of Il government de
sirious of governing Ireland Alright
ought to do would be simply to sum
mon the heads of the whole of the
state departments to a conference, to
tetell them plainly that new regime
was to begin that day. that if they did
not like it they could lump it.
What is the use of talking of a
, united empire-with Ireland in a state
OF yelled rebellion? What is the use
of talking even about united king
dom-with two-thirds of that country
held down by armed men, with trial
by jury suspended. with police manu.
featuring and promoting outragcs,
with public discussion of CLAIMANT is
sues carried on at the risk of imprison-
ment and hard labor? Take the West
OF Ireland. Look at the Westport
Union. 1t has population of 1881.
The poor law valuation of the agricul-
tural land is f43,9G2, little more than
I'll per head. Out of 1923 rated occu-
piers within the union 3O41 are under
II valuation; 1,O4S more are rated be-
tween IA and Is. You can picture the
misery of the situation by what these
figures represent. But alongside this
fearful misery, GO graziers have 9S,97O
acres, and 10 landlords Craze 52,14O
additional acres. The whole thing is a
sin against Gods law-; crime against
humanity. But if l said this in
County Mayo should be hauled before
two Crimes Act magistrates. l should
get three months with hard labor for
saying it, l should get three additional
months if failed to give bail that 1
would not say it again. This is an
absolute correct description of the
facts and of the law. Gentlemen, it
is state of affairs such as this which
drives lrish-born men to frenzy, which
makes an "Unspeakable Scot" like my
self hang his head in shame when he
thinks of what is called the govern
ment of. Ireland. l say here tonight
that the responsibility for the state of
Ireland rests with the people of Great
Britain. Irishmen are not irrccon-
ciliablc. But SO long as English gov
eminent means, as it does, the MAIN
tenance of a land system that has
decimatcd the country, SO long as it
means the domination of a class, and
OF a race, peace is impossible. Is it
not time to try patiently and fully the
more excellent way, the way of recon-
ciliation, the way which points to
peace that will endure?

Hail, all hail to Minnesota!
Star of patriots, proud and free!
With thy wealth of wheat and pine,
Cities great and iron mine,
Limpid lakes and rivers running to

From old Europe's thrall released,
from our sisters in the East,
And from Canada, "Our lady of the

Came the stalwart pioneer, bearing
health and hope and cheer,
Clearing forest, plain and stream

REPLY TO FATHER HART.
From One Of tho Faculty Of tn
Manila University.

| The following letter to the Catholic
Standard and Times from Father
Frrmn =. San Julian, of st. Thomas
University, Mnnill. and dated Oct. /,
will be read with interest by those
who read Chaplain Harris interview
on The Philippine friars some time
ago:
My attention has just been called
to the views expressed by Rev.
Patrick j. Hart concerning the re-
| igi0us situation i'm the Philippines.
These erroneous views were cnrnci-
atcd by Father Hart at st. Paul, Min
ncsota, on July 20. to an Associated
Press reporter. They were spread far
and wide, carrying an influence, l am
Informed, that their intrinsic merit
would never warrant. They derived
their influence from the fact that
Father Hart is Il Catholic clergyman
and has spent a brief time in the
Philippines. Being IL Roman Catholic
priest, his words rejecting upon the
condition of the Church in these
islands seem to have something of an
authoritative ring. Whilst reading
Fathcr Hart's interview | was con-
vinrrd Of the wisdom, first. of Pytla-
Sol:ls. and then of President Roosevelt
in their efforts to encourage and
promote silence. pytllagoras required
five years. President Roosevelt has
placed locks with no time limit and
unknown combinations upon the
mouths Of army officials. 1t seems
too bad that President Roosevelt
could not find locks large enough to
fit army cllap!ains. too.
Few Catholics of the United States
would think of doubling the correct
ness of Father Harris deductions and
observations. Those of an opposite
faith would rather be inclined to sub
tract from his feeble commentator
and multiply his disnpprobation. To
both of these let me say that Father
Hart has erred lamcntably and in
cNplicahly If truth merits as warm
and general Il welcome as error, my
views are entitled to as wide Il circu-
lation as Father Harris. Now to the
interview.
During my travels through the
Island of LuZon." says Father Hart,
II had many opportunities of obscrv-
ing the manners. habits and customs
of the Philippine people. ana very
naturally took special interest in
looking into their religious ideas and
practices. The Filipino people are
Intensely Catholic, most firmly attach
cd to the priests of the Catholic
Church, devoted to it's practices and
animated in all their relations with
deep religious sentiments; very Ger
tainly there is no antipatly whateve,
on their part to the priests of the
Catholic Church rs such"
am glad to be able to commend
Father Hart for the foregoing. 1t is
essentially true. If Father Hart had
only dismissed the reporter ut this
point he would not have run short
of correct information and eked out
the rest of the interview with error
l do not blame him much except that
silence would have rested more grace
fully on him. He was something
over year in the Philippines. Grim
visaged war was stalking through the
land spreading death and desolation
and Father Hart saw the Philippines

foreign orders and to secular or do
cesar priests as well. They are op-
posed to white priests. They want a
monopoly in religion, the same as
the Federal party yearns for monop-
oily i'll civil government. If they must
nave white priests, they would prefer
spanish priests, as they have been
educated by Spanish. They know the
customs of the Spanish and especially
they speak the Spanish language.
They also know whether they ac-
knowledge it or not, the noble sacri-
flces that the members of the religious
orders have made for the love of
souls. If the religious had the
best parlsEes-and heaven knows
they ruled them well-they also had
the most parishes and missions.
Besides all the missions in the
mountains for the benefit of the
Wild savage tribes until the insur
rection of 1898, the religious orders
ministered to hundreds of poor,
small, isolated towns in the most
uninviting and disagreeable places of
the Philippines.
Native priests refused to go there.
The places were too poor to support
pastor and the solitude too vast
and oppressive for the native padre,
llither went the religious in conform
ity to his VOW of obedience. Poverty
was nothing strange to him. He had
embraced it before the altar, and
solitude-''companion of the wise and
good''-he had learned the beauty of
solitude in his monastic cell. True,
the people We're too poor to support
him, but the income from the lands
of which we are despoiled were an
piled to the poor parishes that the
saving truths of religion might not be
denied to the lowly, that the poor
might have the Gospel preached to
them.
1t remains for Father Hart, and
those like him that say that our re-
ligious administration has been multi
fed in the islands to supply our pla-
ces. Since the friars have left their
parishes thousands have died without
the sacraments, thousands are grow
ing up in ignorance of the faith,
thousands are falling into excuses
unheard of in these islands before
1898! During the cholera epidemic
this summer unnumbered people died
without the last sacraments-this, too,
in parishes where native padres were
supposed to minister to them. The
friars that are occupying parishes
labored necessarily during the cholera.
In my parish Of the many that were
stricken with the cholera all received
the last saclaments. l am not reciting
any of these facts to increase the
glory of the friars. We do not want |
any glory that does not come from
the cross of Christ. After all the
self -abnegation necessary to build all
the fine churches and other edifices
dedicated to religion in the Philip
pines, after the improvements the re-
ligious orders have made, all this prop
crty appears very desirable to the
Etching palms" of our enemies. His
tory seems bent on repeating itself.
The spirit of Henry VIII. still flour
ishcs.

such elevation of thought and senti-
ment, withal Of such perfect grace
and beauty, that our government had
it cast in bronze and placed, where
it may now be found, in every ma
tional cemetery throughout the land.
The history of Kentuckians Of
Irish blood does not differ essentially
from that of their kindred in other
States. The share Irishmen took in
the War of Independence must ever
remain the proudest boast and legacy
of their descendants and kindred.
