The Official program of the visit of
King Edward to Ireland contains, be-
sides an extended tour of the island.
a trip around it in his yacht. The
party expect to arrive in Dublin to-
day, where they will visit the castle
and other points of interest. They
will then go to Belfast and Bangor At
the latter place they will board their
yacht and so to Buncr;lna on l4ough
Swilly After Il short stay in Lon
dondcrry they will visit the west of
Ireland where, it is to be hoped, the
king will avail himself of the sights
of the many sad ruins that England's
misgovernment has brought upon poor
Ireland He will without much diff
Guilty see enough to inspire special
speech from the throne at the opening
OF the next parliament. No province
of Ireland has been so ruthlessly and
barbarously governed by the military
as has Connaught, and we hope the
king will not satisfy himself with a
few hours stay there. We will see.

calculnble power toward Righteousness
Of life, his attitude toward the move
ments Of his time as related to the
mighty body under his guidance is as
admirable and as potent. He yielded
nothing of the traditions, the beliefs,
the system of faith committed to him.
Never was the Roman Catholic church
more united, more ardent more i'm
bued with confidence in itself and be-
lief in the height and sacretlness of its
mission than under his leadership.
There has been no abandonment, no
retreat, no surrender.
st. Paul Dispatch
The death of Leo closes remarkable
life, remarkable in itself for length of
days, remarkable for vivid personality,
beautifully and powerfully manifested,
remarkable in it's fitness for the homer
and power which the church bestowed
upon him. No man has ever answered
in richer measure the call of his time,
and no man has ever been called to
higher duties. A pope, no less than 9TH
er men, lives according to the measure
of his power, reacts upon his time
through his personality Leo was large
enough to enrich life and the church
through himself. The life of Leo typi-
ties in significant proportion and vital
ity the life of the church. 1t has been
of advantage to the church, both in
symbol and in the unfolding of actual
events, that the century of the most
marvellous changes in the economies
and politics of the world should have
been SPAWNED by the life of a pope who
was both plastic and energetic in meet
ing those changes. Leo NH. has been
possessed of rare spirituality, keen
intellectually, and of such statesman
like quality of mind as to make his
reign memorable among pontifcates
and significant in the development of
the world.

man has given to the work of the

Leo NIL. has been something vastly
more than the central figure of a hier-
nrchy and a system distinguished for
elaborate ceremonial. rich and impress
Sive in every detail. His purpose and
action have been, throughout his pon-
titic;lte. to keep the church and it's i'll
t!uence up to the full measure of it's
mission to humanity and to maintain
it's forces free from obstruction either
from within or without Leo met the
rigorS of the Kult,lrkampf in Germany
with great wisdom and effected the
ranrroclrmcnt with Bismarck which
had restored the suspended work of
the church. His encyclical on labor
was Il strong and potential expression
of sympathy with struggling human
ity. with most sincere and wholesome
warming against the abandonment of
religion for the dcspairing creed of
social democracy. The great pontiff
has passed from death into life
Through the gateway Of pain, he
passed to the superla!. \ passage;
not a death. Hundreds of millions of
people bow reverently under the pas
sing shadow. 1t is Il shadow none may
escape. The emperor with his jew
eled CROWN; the pontiff with his jew
eled tiara; the rich man in the palace;
the poor man in his cottagc-all must
pass through the exit we call DEATH
To whom much is given from him
much will be required. And it may be
said Of the late pontiff that he seemed
to realize fully his vast responsibilities,
and lived up to them to the best of his
ability.

OPINIONS OF PRESS AND PULPIT


The general expressions Of sorrow
going out from representative men of
all classes and creeds over the loss
sustained by the entire world in the
death Of Pope Leo Nil is indeed very
gratifying to the Church whose chill
dren today mourn with heartfelt sor-
row the loss Of their illustrious and
venerable Pontiff. The press of the
country, regardless Of party. vie with
each other in paying worthy tribute
to his loving and devoted memory.
1t is fitting that the Irish Standard
should give place. in brief at least, to
some of the more important of these
beautiful eulogies: particularly so
should we quote from the daily press
of the Twin Cities which devoted
many columns to the angel life and
sublime virtues of the late Holy
Father:
Minneapolis Tribune
No death in the memory of living
men. has so stirred universal SYM
pathy and touched the common heart
as that of the venerable head Of the
Roman Catholic Church. Ruling a
spiritual dominion wider than the
bounds of the greatest empire, religion
"a larger and deeper sentiment than
patriotism-is forgotten in the univers-
al tribute of affection and admiration
to an elevated mind and tender heart,
which gave new glory to the highest
station by attracting the sympathy of
all sects of Christendom. The world
mourns the man before it stops to re-
fleet on the loss of the pontiff. He
magnitied his office beyond ecclesiastic-
al bounds because his love for his fell
low man was boundless. The counsel
from the highest seat, which his prede-
cessors often spent on arid doctrine, he
lavished ON great questions of human
conduct and social law, common to all
sects. This, as much as the winning
charm of his person, has built up
around him the common sentiment of
admiring affection that. makes all
Christian nations and sects kin in their
mourning for his death.
