ORDER OF .PAULISTS.
It is Proposed to Establish 1t Among
the Churches.

New York. Feb. Ito establish an
order of Paulist fathers among the
clergy of the Protestant Episcopal
church is the latest proposition of some
of the members of that body. The sug-
gestion emanates from the middle west.
The idea of the advocates of the scheme
is to have rectors of small parishes en-
gage in some other business which
would support them permanently regard
less of the inability of the parish to pay
them salaries.
The originator of the plan is the Rev
Conrad r. Birnbach of Pittsfield, ILL.,,
formerly of Hammonton, N J. He says;
1.-The population of this country re-
spects US where we are known. But IN
most places we are still unknown, or,
what is worse, mistakenly known as a
cranky set OF people Matters have been
made much worse in the case of small Il
parishes which tenaciously stuck TO
their privilege Of calling their preach
ers' from everywhere, the further the
| better. On account of this evil, the
church is in small places usually repre-
| sented by that floating class OF clergy
men who are always looking for some
| thing better and who are so helpless
| and awkward in dealing with their fell
| lowunen that they can inspire no respect
/ for their church."

the same commodity possesses in the
far east, and hence the rate of inter
est %obtainable is proportionately
greater. With short loans in demand
at rates of interest the mere cen
temptation of which would stagger
eastern people, it is not likely that
western capitalists are to be tempted
into investments promising no greater
returns than the usually low per-
centum paid by bonds. For this rea-
son the purchase of bonds is nc more
popular in the west than the Inter
Mountain recognizes it to be. If the
interest on bonds issued by western
municipalities and other bodies hav-

fern of Indebtedness were to be rails
ed to a proportion commensurate with
the value of money in this part of the
country there would be no lack of buy

until this is done the western man
having money to invest will be con
tent to let his eastern ,congener buy
the bonds while he looks for invest
ments assuring greater returns.
