ince of St. Paul may fairly be divided
into three parts: First, the period of
exploration; second, the period of mill
tary occupation; and third, the period
of permanent settlement. This outline
Of the preliminary history of Mime
sofa covers nearly two centuries, from
the exploratory visit of Hennepin in
1880 to the coming of Bishop Cretin
in 1851"
The first chapter forms one of the
best brief sketches of the early history
of Minnesota, which we have, and
gives the reader an excellent idea of
the hardships endured by the intrepid
priests and monks from Father Henne
pin down to Father Ravoux, who is still
living in st. Paul and one of the few
survivors of that heroic past. The
Catholics of this part OF the world were
in those first days under the spiritual
jurisdiction of the Bishop of Dubuque
and his first visit to his flock in this
vicinity is here recorded. Bishop Loras
then suffragan of Dubuque visited his
conglomerate flock about Fort Smelling
in 1889. On his return to his home he
wrote as follows of his visit:
IT have just returned from st. Peters
(Mendota) where I made my second
mission, or episcopal visitation.
Though it lasted only month it has
been crowned with success. After
successful voyage of some days along
the superb Mississippi we reached st.
Peters. Our arrival was a cause Of
great joy to the Catholics who had
never before seen priest or bishop in
those remote regions. They manifest
ed q great desire to assist at divine
worship. Arrangements have been
made for the construction of a church
next summer, and clergyman to be
sent when he is able to speak French
(Which is the language of the majority
English and the Sioux"
Arrival of Father Gaitier.
The priest thus spoken of arrived
soon afterwards in the person of Faith
er Galtier who was the first mission
airy priest to remain here. He came
in 1910 and his heroic work for religion
is well known to those familiar with
the early history of st. Paul. In a let
ter written many years later, Father
Galtier told of his first experiences
and Of his defeating the first log
cabin church to st. Paul and from this
the settlement was named after the
great saint. He says:
"The church was thus dedicated to
ST. Paul, and 1 expressed a wish that
the settlement should be known by no
other name. I succeeded in this. L
had previously to this time fixed my
residence at st. Peter, and as the
name Of st. Paul is generally connect
ed with that of st. Peter and the Cen
tiles being well represented in the new
place in the persons of the Indians,
called 1t ST. Paurs."

Claim Of the Japs to Marcus Is Con-

Aug. 27.4This. is a period when the
United States seems to be looking aft
err the Pacific islands. First 1t was
Marcus island but news came that the
Washington authorities recognized
Japan's claim thereto. The solution of
the matter has been hailed with pleas
ure by the Japanese press, which ex-
ats the magnanimity of America and
points out how consistently she has
shown herself to be the friend OF
Japan.
Just on the top of that favorable i'm
preston, however, there arrives word
that the United States has sent war
ship to GUST japanese from Wake ISL
and, south Of Marcus island. The Jap
anese papers claim the island was un-
inhabited until some of their bird
catchers visited it, and profess to
fail to understand of what benefit the
island would be to any nation.

facture feels the inspiration. The rail-

In short, we are in the midst of indus
trial prosperity-and that in spite of
high tariffs, in spite of extortienate
trusts, in spite of special privileges and
grasping greed, and in spite of the
narrow craftsmanship on which such
evils flourish.
With reciprocity with Canada and
Cuba, our nearest commercial neigh
bors, with the substitution of policy
of peace and liberty for one of greed
and strife; with a national and state
policy devoted to the best interests Of
all the people, instead of to a favored
handful or blind and narrow faction;
with the same zeal on the part of am
bilious politicians to serve the man in
the furrow or at the bench, as the
corporation on Change or the combine
that controls a score of states; in
short, with equal rights to all and spe-
cial privileges to none-Minnesota as
the Northwest and the country at large,
would be enjoying a golden era that
history would find difficult to parallel.

An interesting volume just issued
from local press is entitled 1.-THE Do
cese of st. Paul, The Golden Jubilee"
ana is putting into permanent form
the records of the f1ftieth anniversary
of the foundation of the Catholic do
cese of ST. Paul. The compiler and
editor Is the Rev. Ambrose McNulty,
pastor of st. Luke's church in this
city, and one of the best known and
most popular Priests in this vicinity.
The celebration of the jubilee, which
should have taken place in the summer
OF 1900, on account of the absence In
Europe of Archbishop Ireland, was
postponed until the following year and
was held on the second and third of
July, 1901, at the Seminary of ST. Paul
and in town at the Cathedral.
The book is a most unique record of
early days in this state and town and
cannot fail to be of interest and value
not alone to the Catholics, who are
particularly concerned, but to all old
settlers who remember with pleasure
their coming to the village which they
nave lived to see such a prosperous
city.
