Archbishop ireland Wants Canada

A BOUT the time Santa Maria vol
u cano in Guatemala opened a new
crater, Archbishop Ireland made
a speech in New York at the banquet
of the Minnesota society. Strange trick
of the human mind is this which recalls
two events at a time its attention
should be fixed upon one, for there is
no connection between Archbishop Ire
lands address and the internal dis
turbance of the Guatemala mountain.
If any should be found, it will un-
doubtedly be pre-empted by the anna
teur poet.
Archbishop ireland is an American.
He is more: he is an American of
Americans. Nothing in the speeches
of President Roosevelt, from the open
ing of his hunt for the trusts in New
England to the close of his hunt for
bear in Mississippi, equals the fervid
glow, the exalted climax, the cyclonic
oratory of the Archbishop of st. Paul
when he speaks upon national topics
especially when he insists upon more
In speaking at the banquet of the
Minnesota society, Archbishop ireland
expressed the belief that Canada
eventually will be under the domain
of the United States. The transition,
he said, would come without conquest,
without war. After telling of the
growth of America in comparison with
other great nations, the archbishop
said:
within a few years the commerce
of the states on the Pacific coast will
equal those on the Atlantic. The de-
velopment of the lands to the east,
west, the north and the south, is go
ing on more rapidly and safely than
ever before, and we are reaping and
will continue to reap benefits. From
the east the movement will be west
ward to that section, and from the
west eastward to the same destina-
ton.
Il do not want to be bellicose. but
1 say this for myself: AS sure as fate,
although you and 1 may not see it,
the starry banner will wave mistress
over all the territory from the gulf to
the bay. There will be no conquest,
no war. The hearts across the border
are already beating with love for US,
and commerce and agriculture are
calling for espousals."
OF course the archbishop gave ex-
preston to a great many other
thoughts in pursuance of Uncle Sans
idea to own all creation, without adj
herring to his pledge not to become bel
licose. However, he did not turn his
oratory to the lands south of us,
peopled by the Latin races. Those
bordering on his beloved Minnesota
could be better assimilated, notwith-
standing the presence of a few thou
sand Orangemen. The civilization of
Minnesota and the civilization of Man
itoba are pretty much alike, and both

Prof. Eliot and Trades Unions

THE VALUE which so many people
put upon the opinions OF univer-
sity professors passes wonder.
Just as if university training fitted
them for all the avocations of life, so
their analyses and conclusions upon
everything under the sun should have
the effect of infallibility. Professor Ell
lot of Harvard is the most persistent
talker of the whole bunch of college
oracles. and he talks upon anything. al
ways contriving to display bad features
about everything. He talks too much
and too often, and the time will come,
and come soon, when people will weary
through his hat.
The other day Professor Eliot talked
about trades unions. 1t did not matter
whether he had or had not gone to
the bottom in analyzing this subject
People would think he had given trades
unionism deep thought and study, as
becoming the head of a great univer-
sity; so people, he fiattered himself,
would accept his conclusions as they
had done before. The person who
guesses that Professor Eliot takes the
side of the producers of capital, the
patrons of the little red schoolhouse,
is wrong in his guess. The producers
of wealth. those who have through
their toll and muscle, made possible
the gigantic combinations of capital
and trusts, do not leave fortunes to
endow universities and pay men like
Eliot princely salaries. They die con-
tent, if. through years of labor, they
hung on to a life insurance to keep
the widow from want and the children
at school,. Hence. nobody should go
astray as to Professor Eliot's stand
upon the question of capital and labor
Professor Eliot's last address was be-
fore the Economic club of Boston. The
subject was Industrial Battles and
the Public"-very timely, indeed. in
view of the interest which everybody
now takes in the labor problem, the
foremost question of the day. The
principal objection to the labor unions,
from the educators point of view, he
said. was their objection to young men
becoming competent mechanics. and
that they do prevent this is evident
from the fact that all unions endeayor
to limit the number of apprentices en-
ployed in any industry. 1.-THE right to
labor" he said, lis considered the most
sacred right of the American citizen"
Although Professor Eliot uses a plati-
tude TO clinch his argument, the right
to labor is good in the abstract, from
which point alone it is viewed by the
educator Let us apply it practically

HE IS NOT THE LAST APPEAL

President Eliot may be accepted as
the court of last appeal in matters edu-
cational, but his authority will not pass
unchallenged in every walk of Ameri-
can life. The Red Wing Argus repu-
dates his ideas of industrial economy
in language interesting enough to be
repeated. Here's what was said
President Eliot's remarks that labor
unions are un-American, menace to
our institutions is the opinion of z
man who never saw a labor union
and has caught the echo of the en-
ployers plant. A scholars view of
them is worthless. 1t is the geog-
rapher's account of pygmies in Africa
who go to sleep standing on one foot
under the shade of their ears. But
the art of correct observation is sup
posed to have made some advances
among educated men since the days of
Herodotus" Governor Odell declared
on a memorable occasion-before the
election-that labor had as much right
to organize as capital. 1t might have
been mere campaign talk on the part
of the statesman, but it was a wise
saying, considering the circumstances.
1t was a bid for votes and an indica-
ton that goodly number of American
citizens feel that they have a right to
organize. They will, too, despite the
animadversions of Mr.. Eliot. After
all it is the voice of the people and
not the college president that pro-
claims what is, and what is not Amer

But will Archbishop Ireland's belli'
cose prophecy turn out as he
said it would? Will it not be
possible for the Canadians tc
do the most in the way of assimilation
Staring US in the face is long dis
patch from Toronto, holding out Can
ada as the new promised land" With
millions of acres of undeveloped lands,
Canada is seeking to rob the Onlteu
States of that title. 1t may cause the
I average American to awake suddenly
to a realization of the fact that ms
country has grown old. 1t may be with
establishment that he learns that the
tide is turning from immigration 10
| emigration; that Americans are now
! leaving their country for another, and
are changing allegiance. The Cana
dams are anxious to make a good
British citizen out of the Yankee. They
say the Yankee already makes good
citizen, just as Americans nave been
saying it for half century OF the
freshman, the German and the Swede.
All! Archbishop Ireland, is this the
peaceful conquest you had in nina
when you spoke of the country across
the border?
The American may not recognize his
own country in the following descr1p-
ton, but the picture is one drawn by
the Canadian officials, and it shows
their understanding of the situation:
1.-THE United States, with reference
particularly to the middle west, is COM
posed of tenant farmers. 1t is i'm
possible for these farmers to obtain
the land they cultivate. This land is
held by the few, the men of wealth.
The farmer, even though he were able,
cannot purchase the land, because the
wealthy few will not sell. He cannot
own his home if he continues to live
in the United States. He cannot go
elsewhere in the country and obtain
land. All the government properties
have been taken. There is no available
farm land in America, so-called."
That is the agriculture situation as
the Canadian officers see it. Acting
upon their belief they are reaching out
for this class of tenant farmers and
offering them land, which they claim is
better than they forsake, and offering
it to them at so cents an acre. The offer
is bringing forth results. 1t has started
the first American emigration. 1t Will
bring others-one certainly; the other
is a conjecture.
Instead of giving tongue to flights OF
fancy and stimulating unhealthy de-
sire for American expansion, how much
better could Archbishop Ireland turn
sober words toward improving our arid
lands by irrigation, thereby making 1t
possible for Americans to raise crops
and erect homes upon American terri
tory. Archbishop Ireland is great
temperance apostle, an insistent ad-
vocate of the benefcence of cold water.
Why not urge it's generous use in en-
riching the soil as well as curing the
evil of strong drink? We need water in
this western country, and we need it
more than we need Canada.

One would reasonably suppose that
among the Protestant sects the
Disciples of Christ would be found
more unselfish, less self-insistent, more
brotherly and sisterIy than all others.
The name chosen for their creed
naturally leads to such conclusions.
But it is not so. A dispatch from Lex
;ngton, KY, announces that the oldest
church of that denomination in the
state is about to split. Not upon a
question of whether Peter was greater
than Paul. Not because a minister
emphasizes Ah-men instead of plain
Amen-not at ALL because the pronun-
citation of words in Kentucky, like the
whisky distilled there, is alike, which
is also saying that it is good. The
split is upon an organ-just an organ.
The question that divides the congre-
cation is Organ or no organ" The
Bible is brought out to prove that no
mention is made in its sacred pages
showing that Christ or his disciples
ever owned an organ. That should set
tie the whole matter, but the war still
goes on among the Disciples, and, &C
cording to the dispatch, the subject lis
the reigning talk in religious circles
in the blue grass"

Thomas F. Walsh, the Colorado mil

intention to erect a theatre for the
boy, with all the modern appliances

will insist upon having real theatres in

near Savannah. In order that the revival
spirit might be quickened it was ar
ranged that the preacher should give
signal when he thought the excitement
was highest. and from the attic through
d hole cut in the ceiling directly over the
pulpit the sexton was to shove down a
pure white dove, whose flight around the
church and over the heads of the audi
ence was expected TO have an inspiring
effect All went well at the start; the
church was packed; the preachers text
was I'm the Form of a Dove, and as ne
piled up his eloquent periods the excite
ment was strong. Then the opportune
moment arrived and the packed audience
was scared out of its wits by looking
up to the ceiling and beholding cat.
