Board Of Supervisors

The meeting Of the Board on the
18th inst. was very busy one, the
entire day being taken mp in
much routine work. no special mat
tiers coming up except in cases
where contractors brought in ac-
counts for extra work on roads
made necessary by the spring food.
In dealing with these we believe
the Board has used discretion ard
has kept in view the convenlences
to the public Of good roads rs well
as to hold in check any undue eN-
penditnre Of money. There is no
doubt but that the roads Of the
county are recovering much more
rapidly from their terrible wash
ing than most people expected, and
shall we"not give some Of the credit
to the men Of the pick and shovel?
We feel that it may possible be the
case that they have been sore Y per-
secuted.
Road contractor were allowed
one half their pay due an their re-
spective contracts, due on the Isl
dav Of August 1902.
The Board made its usual annual
settlement with ia Jones, Trpasur-
er, on account Of the levy for coun-
ty purposes, for the year ending
June 30, 1901, and found the set
Element and vouchers supporting
same entirely satisfactory.

IN MEMoRIAM HENRY w. COLE.
Funeral of a Devout Catholic al
Tribute to His Memory.

1t is with much regret that we chron-
which occurred at the Wey hotel last
Sunday evening.
The death of Harry Coyle is per-
sonal loss to every one who knew him;
for some months past he had been
bravely battling against a serious NAL
ady, but so courageously and cheer
fully that only few of his intimate
friends knew how he suffered.
He was a native of Montreal, Can,
where his parents now live, and was
81 years old.
For many years he held various posi-
tons of trust in the east; two years
ago he came west for his health, and
at the time of his death was book
keeper for the Bingham Copper & Gold
company. He was a cousin of John
and Jackson McChrystal, the promi-
nent mining men.
His funeral occurred on Tuesday aft
ernoon from St. Mary's cathedral; Rev.
Father Kiely officiated and preached
the funeral sermon, paying a beautiful
tribute to the life and character of the
deceased. The choir of the cathedral
rendered beautiful music and the lioral
offerings were numerous, one hand
some cross being sent by the members
of the choir from Eureka.
OF Mr.. Coyle it can be truthfully said
that he was a sincere, earnest Catho-
lie, showing in his life the every exam
pie and training of a truly Christian
mother, and the love he bore for his
parents was one of the most beautiful
traits of his nature.
The patient submission with which
he endured his sufferings was a daily
inspiration and the memory of his
Christian life will long linger bright
and true in the hearts of those who
knew him best.
To the aged parents in their far-off
home the love and sympathy of all is
extended in their bereavement. Nay
they be comforted with the thought
that their loved son has passed INTO
the External Rest, with Gods beautiful
peace upon him forever.

UNITED STATES RANK
THIRD IN POPULATION.

( w ASHINGTON, Jan. THE census
| w bureau today issued a report an
nouncing that the population OF
the entire United States, including all
outlying possessions, was 81, 2S3,O69 in
the census for 1900. This is itemized
as follows:
Continental United States, or United
States proper, 75,994575; Philippines,

154, OO1; Alaska, 1852; Guam, 5000;
American Samoa, 500; persons in the
military and naval service of the Unit
ed States outside of the territory of
the United States proper, 1928.
These figures are based on the emu
meration of June 1, 1900.
The total population of the United
States at the close of the nineteenth
century was about S4,25O,OOO As the
population of the United States at the
beginning of the century was about
1888, $3.50, the nation has grown nearly
sixteenfold in 100 years.
There are but three countries which
now have a greater population than
the United States, viz: China, the Brit
ish empire and the Russian empire.

each of them probably between 35O,0OO,-
900 and 400, 900 ,000 or together nearly
one-half of the total population of the
earth. The Russian empire, with about
131, 100000 people, has more than half
as many again as the United States,
and has been increasing during the
century just closed with greater rapid
ity than any other European power.
It's. growth, like that of the United
States, has been partly through the nat
ural increase of it's population and
partly through great accessions Of ter
ritory 1t had about 3S,S00,0OO people
in 1900, and has increased more than
three and a half times during the nine
tenth century,
France, including its dependencies, is
the fifth country of the world in order
of population, and has about 80. 15O,000'
or almost the same number as the
United States. Of these over $4,000, 600
are in African dependencies, nearly

the world, which is placed by the best
authorities at between !, 5OOOOO,OOO and

CALL THE CATHOLIC NEWS

One who has sought TO obtain sub
scribers for Catholic paper in. large
city has met with this statement: 1--WE
get all the Catholic newslin the daily
papers," And this is,alleged as an eX-
cuse for not taking aaCatholic paper.
If this statement were true, it would
be no good reason forfailing to take a
Catholic paper. We do not take mag
azines for the news they contain. We
take them for their intelligent discus
sion of current questions, their we'll
presented descriptive articles, their
highclass fiction. Infa large. measure
it is for these reasons2r too, that
thoughtful people take weekly papers.
The weekly gives US matuEed editorial
discussion-and from asCatholic stand
point. The matter of standpoint is i'm
portant. The news (such of it as there
isl is summarized and thrown into pro-
portion. Every column of reading mat
ter is made for Catholics and by Cath
olics.
This sufficiently answers the objec-
ton alluded to. The Catholic weekly
covers field. and an important field.
that the daily paper does not cover, and
cannot cover Intelligent people are

sufficiently. But there is another an
swer yet. You don't get "all the Cath
Ollie news" in the daily papers. Most
of the cable news from Rome is incor-
rect or distorted. as any Catholic cler-
gyman will tell you. Much of the As
ISOLATED Press Catholic news" is made
of conjecture and for sensational pur-
poses. The guesses of lbne day are con-
tradicted by the dispa tches of the next.
Catholics who tell you that the, ban
has been removed from the Freema-
sons" and similar absurdities, are peo-
pie who get "all their news from the
daily papers. We must admit, in fair
ness, that the local Catholic news ap-
pearing in the daily papers is usually
reasonably correct. But it is the exist
ence of Catholic papers that forces the
dailies to cover the Catholic news field
The Catholic paper has created and
stimulated a desire for this informa
ton Were it not for the Catholic pa
per, the dailies would give little or no
attention to Catholic local news.-Cath

EFFORTS TO REVERSE
SCHLEY COURT VERDICT.

Washington, Jan. Representative
Hooker of Mississippi today introduced q
joint resolution reciting that Commodore
Schley was the senior officer in command
at the battle of Santiago; that he was in
absolute command at that battle and IS
entitled to the credit due to such COM
handing officer of the glorious victory
which resulted in the total destruction or
the Spanish ships
The resolution provides for the thanks
of congress to Admiral Schley and the
officers and men under his command.
The object of Admiral Schley's visit to
the White House yesterday was to re-
quest the president to entertain and con-
slider an appeal for the reversal of the
action, of Secretary Long and the diS-
approval of the majority judgment of the
court of inquiry. The interview was sat
isfactory. the president granting the adj
miraTs request. Messrs. RaynOr and
league will today assist Admiral Schley
in the preparation of the appeal
The interview with the president was
arranged in advance and at its c0nclu-
sion Admiral Schley left the White House
in satisfied state of mind. He had been
given a full opportunity to present the
case from his standpoint and to acquaint
the president with many details with
which the latter could not have any
knowledge.
While Admiral Schley would not make
any statement regarding the matters dis
cussed, holding that any interview be-
tween a naval officer and his commander
in-chief should be regarded as confiden-
tial, it is understood that he brought to
the presidents attention many of the al
legged injustices and discrepancies of the
majority report of the court of inquiry.
Admiral Sohley's interview with the
president was the result of his determin-
alton to exhaust every means in his pow
er to overturn the judgment which has
been rendered against him. His new APP
peal will be different from that submit
ted to the department bringing out some
new facts which have an important bear
ing upon the controversy.
