1t seems that after the war Of 1919

became convinced that the entrance
to Lake Champlain should be guarded
by a fort strong enough to engage
any British fleet which might ut.

lake. And so Fort Montgomery "a

for those days, and was arranged for

line between the United States and
Canada came along, and, after doing
a good bit of figuring, announced
that Fort Montgomery was on Cana

New York state was the forty-ifth
parallel, and this fort was several
hundred yards over the line. Work
on the fort came to an immediate
s%tandstill, and the matter was made
the subject of a special treaty.
1t was decided that in view of the
fact that the United States had not

HONOR FOR QUIGLEY.
Buffalo IN. " Prelate to Be Arch
bishop Of Chicago.
He La One of the Most Widely Known
Churchmen in the United States
Opposed to Socialism In
Labor Unions.

Information has been receivedinC Chi
cago that the congregation of the
propaganda at Rome had recommend
ed Bishop James Edward Quigley, of
the diocese of Buffalo, N. Y, to the
pope for appointment as archbishop
of Chicago to succeed the late Arch
bishop Feehan.
Bishop Quigley is one of the most
widely known ecclesiastics in this
country. From childhood his parents
intended him for the church, and their
son accepted their plans as soon as he
was old enough to realize the impor-
lance of the step. He was born in
Oshawa, Ont, October Is, 1855. When
he was a child his parents moved to
Lima, N. Y, where they lived three
years, leaving the village to take up
their residence in Rochester.
In pursuance of a tradition in his
mothers family, James Edward was
selected to be a priest. 1t had always
been the custom of her people to Sc
lect the eldest son for the church, and,
continuing this, her sons early edu-
cation was begun under the tutelage
of Father Edward Quigley, of the I'm
maculate Conception church, of Buff
falo.
The education of the young man for
the priesthood was continued under
the direction of the Christian Broth
ers of st. Joseph college. A five-yea.
course of preparatory studies was
completed there. An incident of his
life in this college shows how near the
church came to losing a student whose
career has proved him to be of so much
value.
In 1872 a notable competitive exam
i%nation for a West Point cadetship
was held in Buffalo. Each institution
of learning in the congressional dis
trict put forward it's best student, and

out and only $50 in the old vaults to
meet this great issue.
In January, 1917, the bank at Vim
cennes was adopted as the state bank
of Indiana, and it's capitalization in
creased to $1,0oO,oOO, the state holding
$375,O00 of it. Unfortunately the peo-
pie intrusted with the keeping of the
money proved to be dishonest, and in
1891 the crash came. When the vaults
We're opened $50 was found with which
to redeem the $1,000, 900 capitalization,
and also to cover the government de-
post of $250,00O. In 1887 specie pay
ments were suspended with all the 9TH
er banks of the country, but in 1912 the
legislature required specie payments
resumed, and coin was paid on demand
thereafter. The Bank of the State of
Indiana was it's successor in 1856 until
1865, when the national banking sys-
tenn closed the doors of other banking
Institutions.
The Aberdeen Democrat. (Aberdeen, South Dakota) 1???-1909, 1903-01-02
BISHOP JAMES e. QUIGLEY.
Recommended for Appointment as Arch
bishop of Chicago.)

the future bishop of Buffalo distanced
all competitors.
Whether it was ever his intention to
become a soldier is not known, but
the alluring prospect was relinquished'
and young Quigley decidedto complete
his preparation for clerical orders.
After finishing at St. Joseph's college
he went to the Vinceptian seminary
of Our Lady of Angels. In 1873 Bishop
Ryan secured for the young man a
''bursch'' in the University of Inns
bruck in the Austrian Tyrol. From
this famous institution to the College
of the Propaganda in Rome was his
next step, and here, again, he bore
away honors, securing the title "Sum-
ma Cum Laude," May %, 1879. He had
already received holy orders at the
hands of the cardinal vicar of Rome,
Monaco de la Valleta, April 10 of the
same year. The present bishop of
Brooklyn, Rt. Rev. Charles E. McDon-
nell, was Bishop Quigley's classmate
and close friend.
Returning from Rome in 1879, he was
assigned by Bishop Ryan to a rector
ship at Attica, N. Y, where he re
manned five years. He then entered st.
Joseph's cathedral in Buffalo as its
rector, having been selected from more
than a hundred eligible priests. In
1896, just before he was made a bish-
op, Father Quigley became rector of
st. Bridget's church, of Buffalo.
The episcopal see of Buffalo becom-
ing vacant in April, 1896, by the death
of BishopRyan, the Buffalo priests cast
their votes for Father Quigley, and. the
selection was unanimously Endorsed
by the bishops of the ecclesiastical
provinces of New York. The pope gave
his approval in December, and early
in 1897 he was confirmed a bishop.
Bishop Quigley speaks most of the
European languages, and is a force
in the affairs of the church. Last
spring he was brought into the public
eye through a fight he began against
labor unions with socialistic tenden-
cies. He ordered all good Catho-
lies in his jurisdiction to leave social
istic organizations. This order was
followed by a bitter contest, in which
the Catholic church was arrayed
against socialism and its disapproval
put upon the movement for a change
in the industrial system.
