Spanish Friars Must Go.

A TELEGRAM from the Eterna
! n City, dated March 10, states tina
the pope, on receiving Archbishop
Sbarretti before the latter's departure
for the Philippines, urged him to make
every effort to work with the Ameri-
cans, from whom, including President
| Roosevelt himself, the vatican had had
| such marks of friendliness.
The words of the pontiff were the
more important as he has lately re-
| ceived warm petitions from the friars
urging him to maintain their moral
| and material supremacy in the Phil
ippines, recommending him especially
to prevent their removal.
Several cardinals consider that if the
Washington government insists the
friars will ultimately be gradually
Withdrawn.
Already it is contemplated 10 sup
ply the places of these friars with
American missionaries. and the Paul
lists are making efforts to train priests
for just such a mission A bill for the
purchase of lands owned by the eriars
is before congress.
Probably the most important feature
of this big land deal, as outlined by
Senator Spooner. concerns the DISPOSE
ton of these vast tracts of land, which
include whole town sites, and a large
percentage of the best AGRICULTURAL
lands in the islands. The purpose is
TO throw these tracts open for settle
ment on payment of a price of about
Sl.2O per acre in American money.
The further settled policy of the adj
is to turn these lands over
TO the Filipinos themselves and to
create an actual statutory preference |
IN favor of the present tenant. (
AS provided in the Lodge bill, the

however, to advance large sum of

per cent bonds payable in from five
o thirty years. The money will be
sed exclusively for the purchase of
ana, but the bonds are to be made
valuable as basis of circulation bv

desirable in this country. :

What damuable part this country
is playing through its administration
by refusing to discuss civilized warfare

ton the Boer delegates received from

claimed any plea for intervention. and
only asked that the good offices of
our government be used to make
the British fight fair and in &C

Our Salt Lake contemporary, the
Herald, pays this tribute to the mem
DRY of the deceased gentleman:
When the news came from Los An

to his long rest, in his seth year,
ms friends recalled with pleasure the
peace and comfort that have sur
rounded the old gentlemans declining
years, the serenity of his life, his I'M
failing youth. Though he had long
passed the age allotted to man, he en-
Joyed his world, and maintained his in
terest in the welfare of those around
him to the end. One of the delightful
scenes for those who lived near him
was the old mans joy in the home pro-
vlded for him by the sons in whom he
took great pride. He loved the trees
and the grass, he watched the buds and
blossoms in the spring with enjoyment.
1t was not unusual for him to be seen
working outdoors about the refuge of
MS oiu age or looking after the niue
duties that he took upon himself with
the satisfaction of the man who feels
that he has reached a haven where no |
storm can overtake him. The amuse- |
nents OF youth never palled on him |

Ioyment of the young people about him

Death of Patrick 0'Meara.

A TELEGRAM from Los Angeles to
n the daily papers announces the
death in that city of Patrick
o'Meara, an old-time resident of this
city. The end came on the night Of
Tuesday last. The stalwart Catholic
and God-fearing citizen reached the
ripe age of 50 years.
Mr.. oMeara. accompanied by wife.
daughter and son William, set out for
Los Angeles about six weeks ago in
the hope that the change would BENEFIT
the invalid. Up to within a week the
family were guests at the Hotel An
gelus; then it became necessary to re-
move the infirm parent to the Sistars,
hospital. AT this institution, surrounded
by those he loved, and fortified by the
saeraments of his faith, one OF the
srandest characters of the church IN

Exit Long, Enter Moody

ION MAY 1 Representative William
| H. Moody of Massachusetts will
succeed John D. Long as secre-
| tary of the navy. New England will
retain the cabinet Office it has had
since President Mckinley was inaug-
| urated. So long as the tradition en-
drres that the selection of cabinet Of
fcers must be governed, to some ex-
tent, by geogra phical considerations,
New England clearly is entitled to one
of these cabinet offices. That part of
the country does not have the monop-
oily of the shipping interests it had a
century ago, but the fitness of things,
seemingly, is consulted when a ecretary
of the navy is taken from Massachu-
sets instead of Illinois, Indiana or
West Virginia.
The choice which President Roosevelt
has made of a new secretary is d good
one, not so much because Mr. Moody
comes from Massachusetts. as because
he is well qualified for the performance
of the duties of his new office. He en-
tered the house nearly seven years ago
and has been from the beginning one
of its efficient members. He has not
served on the committee on naval af- |
fairs, but he has been one of the work |
ing members of the committee on ap-
preparations, where one learns much of |
the management of all the executive |
departments.
The legislative training which Mr.
Moody has had will be of value to hir
n his new position. OF more value,
however, will be his judicial, well-bal-
lnced, temperate habit of mind. The
-ffairs of the navy department will be
justly and without pref
nee by him. And this could not be
aid for Long.

Oliver Wendell Holmes was once
asked by clergyman what effect re-

piled: So far as 1 have observed per-
sons nearing the end of life, the Cath
olics understand the business Of dying
better than Protestants. I have seen
a good many Catholics on their death
bed, and it always appeared to me that
they accepted the inevitable with a
composure which showed that their
belief whether or not the best TO live
by, was better one to die by"
