 N EW YORK, December 2s.--The 01 Rev. Robert A. Colyer in an in- terview today, .dwelt on the changes-changes for the better--in this country during the last fifty years. He said:
 'Fifty-three years ago people were not as sanguine nor as hopeful as they are now. They were full of swagger about manifest destiny, and they were singing about good time coming, but they had no realization of what a good time meant compared with what we now know of this subject.
 'After the change which has taken place in the hopefulness of the people I should say the next greatest benefit we have experienced is that which has come through universal desire to live what has come to be known as the higher life,' brought about through better schools and free libraries, and whatever else 1t is that makes for the finer personal life the people generally are leading. My faith is that the world was never so great as it is now.

Westminster Cathedral.

''Ihe dedication of the new Catholic cathedral of Westminster Sunday, and the enthronement of Archbishop Bourne, suc- cessor of the late Cardinal Vaughan, which took place today, naturally attract ed a vast throng,' said layman last night.
 "The archbishop Is the primate of the Catholic church in England and is man of rare attainments and executive abili- ty. He is only 4S years old. He will be raised to the cardinalate, no doubt. with in the next year or two.
 ''The cathedral stands about a half mile from Westminster Abbey and Is an imposing pile. It has cost about f1,00O,- GOO and is free from debt When the various chapels are completed the total cost of the cathedral will have reached about e15O0oOo.
 Considering the size of the building, it has been erected in remarkably short space of time. Ground was broken for the foundation only eight years ago. The dedication was to have taken place dur ing Cardinal Vaughan's lifetime, and the festival of St. John, the Baptist June 24 1901. was set for the ceremony, but the building was not sufficiently advanced to- ward completion Cardinal Gibbons had been invited to preach the dedication ser mon.
 "The Catholic church is not relatively as strong in England as it is in the Unit ed states, but it is now growing fast. Nearly one-fourth of the nobility are members of the Roman Catholic church.

The Christmas feast was never more gen. orally and more exultingly observed or with ceremony more splendid and iinpos ing.

If the tack headed editor of the

THROW sand in the eyes of intelligent

heaped upon US does not cover up

opposed to the formation of new
county as proposed by the Nezpsrce
grafters for the county seat. Just
because we do not work for the in
terests of Nezperce, but are trying
to protect our own, ia no valid reason
why we merit the venom of the

does not detract an iota from the
