OF COURSE it will be expected that
Mr.. Bryan will take the stump for
the Republican ticket if Mr.. Cleve-
land should be nominated next year.
The Republicans could win withou t
Bryan's help on the stump, but we
presume Mr.. Hanna or the manager
of the canvass, whoever he chances
to be, will not put the Nebraska man
off the track if he wants to aid tn e
Republicans. The outlook for the
Republicans seems especially brigh
for the canvass of 1904, yet the cam
paign leaders should be willing to ac-
cept two-thirds majority in the cleo
toral college if Mr.. Bryan and his
friends are willing to help them to
get it. AS an assailant of the EXPIRE s.
ident, the presidential candidate
would he at his best. He would be
able to attract as big audiences as
greeted him when he was getting his
ovatious in 1896 and 1900.

STATE SCHOOL FUNDS
New Basis For Distribution To The COun-
ties And City.

New Basis For Distribution To The Coun-
ties And City.
Under recent dicision of the Court
of Appeals in the case of Robert Shri-
yer, of Allegany county, against the
Comptroller of the Treasury it is be-
lieved that an entirely new plan of
distributing the school fund from the
State Treasury must be adopted.
Under the old method prescribed by
the Act of 1872 it has been custom
airy to use the colored population of
school age twice in comput ting the
amount for each county. That
is to say, the distribution of State
funds to the white schools was based
upon the entire population of school
age, both white and colored. Then
the distribution to the colored schools
was passed upon the colored popula-
ton. This of course, gave the coun-
ties having a large colored popu-
lation great advantage, and it is be-
lieyed that it was done Intentionally.
For it is fact that the counties
having the largest negro population
are the poorer counties and unable
to bear the burden of educating so
large a non-taxpaying population.
1t was therefore said to have been the
intention of the Legislature to give
them large proportion of State aid.
The decision above referred to was
based upon the provision of the Code
on tile subject, Section 102 of article
II, which is as follows:
AS soon as the Comptroller shall
have received from the city of Balti-
more and the several counties returns
of the amount of the State school tax
levied in each county and the city of
Baltimore, he shall Immediately there
after apportion the amount of the
levy to the several counties and the
city of Baltimore, in proportion to
their respective population between
the ages of and 90 years"
The Court of Appeals held that
the word white could not be read
into this section, and consequently
the petition of Mr.. Shriver for q
mandamus in the case was dismissed.
But the court went farther and ex-
pressed the opinion, in substance,
that the same principle is applicable
to Section SO, of Article n of the Code
under which the the distribution of
the fund appropriated for the main
tenance of colored schools is made.
This section, as well as Section 1902,
was codified from the Act of 1872,
Chapter 377, and reads as follows:
1.-The Comptroller shall apportion
the sum appropriated or,the support
OF the colored schools of the several
counties and the city of Baltimore in
proportion to their respective popu-
lation between the age of and 20
years; said apportionment to be made
at the time he apportions the levy
for the white schools"
Before the act from which this Sec
ton is taken was codified the section
contained the word "colored" before
the word population.
1t has been computed that the
counties will gain or lose as follows if
the State school tax is to be distrib-
uted upon the basis of school popu-
lation, counting the colored popula-
ton but once:

Might Have Resulted Seriously.


A horse attached to a buggy, both
the property of James Treacy, of Hut
ton, which was hitched to a post at
the corner of Second and Oak streets,
last Saturday night about $50 o'clock
stripped the bride and ran away
down Second street. At the Davis
hardware store the horse got upon
the pavement and making a sudden
turn it wheeled and ran on up the
walk to Mrs. Scott's store where the
buggy struck tree and the horse
broke loose from the vehicle. In it's
run some shrubbery at Mr.. Davis
residence was destroyed, the sign
alongside the building of THE RE-
PUBLICAN was partially torn from
it's fastenings and number of boards
in the walk fronting Bolden & Co.'s
store were broken. Had the runaway
occurred an hour or two sooner there
is a probability that a number of
persons would have been injured as
the streets were crowded at that time
with men, women and children.

One and Every Reason

The Catholic Woman's Club. recently
started, will fill long felt want. The
wonder il that the movement was not
started long ago. The Catholic popula-
ton of Louisville is nearly 10000. and
this large number certainly can keep up
club of this kind. There is every indi-
cation that the club will pay from the
very start. Hundreds of working men
and women win patronize the club daily.
Heretofore the patrons went elsewhere.
The high class of women at the head Of
the club is a sufficient guarantee that the
movement will be success. The ladies
have gone to work intelligently and are
united and enthusiastic. They have moi
asked for charity. bat have started oul
in business-like way which guarantees
future success. The club promises to be
of great benefit to those who patronize Il
as well as to those who are interested In
financial way.

JOHN RAIDY DEAD.
Had Been a Patient Sufferer
During the Past Two
Years.

The death of John G, Raidy, son OF
ex-Oficer Patrick Raidy, which occurred
Sunday afternoon, at his home, 25S8
West Main street, was heavy blow to
an afflicted family. this being the second
time within a period of eighteen months
that death has visited the family home.
For several years Mr.. Raidy was chief
clerk for the American District Telegraph
Company, and was held in the highest
esteem by all with whom he came in con-
tact. He was also member of Mackin
Council. About two years ago he was
stricken, and though his death was not
unlocked for for some time past the sad
news came as a shock to his legion of
friends in all parts of the city.
His funeral took place Tuesday morn
ing from St. cecilia's church, where a
solemn mass of requiem was celebrated
by Rev. Father Brady, the church being
througed by mourning friends and rela-
tives. Besides his parents the deceased
leaves one brother, Charles Raidy, the
we'll known letter carrier, and two sisters,
Misses Ida and Eva Raidy, to mourn his
death. Mrs. William Patterson was Mr..
Raidy's aunt. The heartfelt sympathy
Of the entire community goes ont to the
aged pasents In their great afdiction.

FORCED TO TAKE A REST,

Rev. John B. Kelly, rector Of Holy

ordered by his physician to take rest
in a milder climate, and he will 60 to
California or to Florida during the next
few days. Father Kelly has overworked
himself during the past few years, and
while his health has not been perma-
nently broken he is in bad physical con-
dition. It is hoped that brief stay in a
milder climate will help him. Father
Kelly has not said anything to his con-
gregation about his health, as he did moi
wish to alarm his parishioners, who love
him dearly. He was compelled to stay
at St. Edwards Hospital, in New Albany,
for several weeks recently. He would
not consent to leave unless peremptory
orders were given him by his physician
Father Kelly is one of the most beloved
priests in Southern Indiana, and his
friends hope that he will soon be restored
to health. During his absence Fathel
Kinney will be the active rector of Holy
Trinity. Father Kinney is very popular
with the members of Holy Trinity parish

WORTHY PIONEER PRIEST
Father Audran Remembered
by His Successor and
Pensioners.

A handsome monument Is TO be placed
in tne Catholic cemetery at Jefferson
sonville during the next few days over
the remains of the Rev. Ernest Audran,
former pastor of St. Augustine's. Father
Audran was a pioneer priest of Southern
Indiana, and labored at Jacksonville for
over thirty years. He left no estate. His
entire life had been spent in the cause of
religion and education. He came to
Indiana from France, and was at Vim
cennes for twenty years. His successor
at Jacksonville, Rev. John O'Connell,
thought 1t fitting that a monument
should be erected to his memory. This
feeling was shared by the leading men,
bers of his congregation, ard they raised
several hundred dollars to erect the mon
ument. Col. Mike Muldoon, of Louis
vile, built the monument and 1t is now
at his works in this city. 1t will be ded.
icated with appropriate ceremonies with
in the next few days. Father Audrar
came of distinguished French family,
His uncle, Bishop de la Hailandaire, wa:
the third Bishop of Vincennes. Father
Audran was lovely character and q
steadfast promoter of all that tended tC
help the cause of religion and edcucatior
in Indiana, and it is fitting that his sue
cessor and the members Of his congrega
should remember him in this way

little time for temperance work, and in
1S48 the devoted priest was stricken with
illness. He recovered from the attack,
and despite all advice soon returned to
active temperance work.
In 1849 he sailed for America to take
up a campaign on behalf of total absti-
hence here, and so great was the enthusi-
asm with which he was received In all
the cities he visited that his tour was one
continual triumphant march. So highly
his visit to Washington the Senate passed
a resolution inviting him to seat on the
floor, an honor that has never been
bestowed on any other person of foreign
birth save Lafayette. But despite all
these marks of appreciation and regard,
for the action of the Senate was but the
capstone of innumerable tokens Of con-
sideration from municipalities, cham
bers of commerce, States and individuals,
the greatest satisfaction that probably
accrued to Father Mathew from the few
months he spent in this country was the
fact that he won over to his cause PSI 900
persons.
Shortly after his return to Ireland
Father Mathew was again stricken with
paralysis, but continued in the battle
against temperance as we'll as his Grip
pied and enfeebled condition would
admit until the day of his death, which
occurred at Queenstown, December 8,
1856. A few days later he was inferred
in the cemetery at Cork beneath the
protecting arms of the great cross that he
had himself erected there.
The order of Father Mathew is one of
the largest, if not the largest temperance
organizations in the world. 1t has
millions on its muster rolls and every
man on the lists is devoted soldier to
the cause of the great apostle. In the
United States the headquarters of the
national organization are in St. Louis,
and it was therefore fitting that the
movement to honor Father Mathews
memory with a portrait statue should
originate there.

with fine educational institutions. There
is now also being erected church at
North Indianapolis. This will make
twelve Catholic parishes in that city. Not
least among the things that have been
done during his administration as Bishop
has been the erection and development
Of St. vincent's Hospital, one of the
great institutions Of the city. Like
progress has been made all over his do
cese. the growth having been specially
marked in the county seats. There are
120 priests in the diocese. Since 1899 he
has been assisted in the work of the do
cese by the Right Rev. Denis O'Don-
aghue, Of St. Patrick's church, who was
then appointed auxiliary Bishop.
