In the passing Of Leo Mi is wit

most august figures in the world. Not
by Catholic alone tx the venerable
beauty of his life and character held
in reverence; the great Christian
world outside his own fold does JUS
tice TO his sanity life and recognizes
him AZ ruler over spiritual affairs of
eminent and distinguished ability,
The Holy Father has always been well
affected towards America; the two
cardinals of his creation are among
the worthiest American representa-
tves of the Church, and during the
late controversy on the subject OF the
religious orders in the Philippines the
pope showed himself liberal, enlight-
ened and tolernn. il his dealings with
government which, while scparat
ing wholly the interests OF church and
state, aims ut just and kindly treat
ment of all religious bodies. The
United States, with Roosevelt Mt its
head, meant to deal in all fairness
with Roman Catholic claims In the
island, and Leo XIII, responding to
this attitude, met our representative
hall way with a cordinlty and com
prehension which did much to soften
possible asperities and to reassure the
the faithful who had feared the church
would obtain less than he- due mt the

In reading over the old files today
one cannot but marvel at the correct
forecasts of the early timers with re-
spect to the fertility of the soil, the
prospective settlement and develop
ment of the country, the improve
ment of the waterways, the building
of railroads and the growth of popula
ton. True, they seemed to attach
little Importance TO the value of tim
Der, one Of our greatest resources in
later years, and they knew nothing
of the wonderful iron mines lying but
few miles north and east of us.
Their constant aim was 20 promote
the building of railroads to Superior.
| They seemed to think the future of
the city and it's inhabitants would be
bright forever if a railroad could be
secured.
To one like myself who has resided
in Northern Wisconsin for more than
46 years, always strong il the belief
that for valuable recources in miner
ais, timber, fertility of soil, pure air
and water, healthful climate and in
telligent, enterprising people, no
section of our union can surpass this
part of our state, it is especially graf
flying to find early Judgment vindi-
Gated by the newspapers of today, in
their continuous and intelligent ad-
voc&cy of these advantages. The
newspapers have done and are doing
more than any other agency in build
ing up this section of our noble COM
mon wealth. They deserve the cor
dial support of our people that they
may long be enabled to continue the
good work.
