THE REPUBLICAN PARTY

The Republican party is TODAY
the greatest single political fore,
in the world. Fol. more thar
forty years the Republican party
has appealed to the conscience
and convictions OF the American
people. Since 1860, with the ex.
ception of the last Cleveland ad.
ministration, it's responsibility
Tor our laws and policies has re-
manned practically and substan.
TALLY undisturbed. The Repub-
lican party has always been
great in the same degree that it
has been progressive. 1t was
called into being as Il protest
against the spirit OF National
destines, - years ago, and it
has steadily advanced along the
lines OF humanitarianism and
progress.
The Republican party has TAX
en- up in timely succession all
those remedial and constructive
measures which have aided so
materially in making us the
greatest nation on earth. 1t has
never reached out for the unat-
tainable. but it's policy Of today
has always been logical advance
on that of yesterday. The prin-
ciples OF the Republican party
are always those upon which
prosperity depends. The Repub-
lican party oftoday-the Repub-
lican party of Ward County
stands with it's face full and fair
to the future. It's great achieve
ments are but vantage ground.
The quick blood of youth still
runs in it's veins, the soul OF it's
creed is the life of the nation, it's
battle cry is the progress of the
people. 1t is fully alert to the
progressive spirit Of the age,
and to the proper handling OF all
the great questions before the
people to day.
1t must he Il source or gratltl-
cation to every sound hearted
Republican that his party is to-
day Il unit upon all the great
and substantial policies of gov
eminent. The wings Of the Re-
publican party are large enough
to shelter ali the good citizens
but it is suspicious Of putting
the Arrangements Of it's affairs in
to the hands of traitors and
those newly converted-convert-
ed for revenue only.
Fidelity to party principles"
should be the war cry OF the
campaign III Ward county. Those
SO called Republicans, like Blais-
dell, McGee, Carol, Grays and
Wilson, who stabbed the party
in the back in 1902, should not
be allowed to prostitute the
party to their base ends this
year.
The Republicans Of Ward
County are alive, intelligent and
fair, and we believe will do their
duty when opportunity offers.

CHALLENGE FOR DEBATE

MINOT, N. d., APRIL 10, 'O4-
Having been informed that
certain persons, principally those
who desire to fill the offices with
in the gift OF the people of Ward
County and their followers, have
made general charges of incom-
potency, acknowledgement and
malfeasance against myself. the
members OF the Republican ON
mittee, and the County Officers,
with the evident design of throw
ing discredit on present County,
Legislative and judicial officers,
Now, knowing the absolute
falsity OF all such charges in
each and every particular, and
believing that the best way to
convince the people of the County
OF the true inwardness OF the in
surgent movement is by openly
and candidly stating to them
the facts in connection with the
general organization OF the par
ty and the conduct OF the offices
by the persons elected by the
Republican party.
1t has therefore been deter
mined to hold Il series of public
meetings at the principal cities
and villages iE the County com
mencing about April Both, in Or
der that public speakers may be
ready to tell what has been done
and what has not been done, and
answer questions OF any voter
who may desire any information
Now, in order that the honest
voter of Ward County may know
the manner in which his business
has been conducted IN this Couu-
ty, and that he may also see
through the schemes OF those
who are seeking to destroy his
party organization, and that
the falsity of the insinuations
made by those who seek to pull
down instead Of building up the
party, may establish beyond all
possible doubt in every honest
mans mind, l hereby challenge
any voter in this County, who
believes that the affairs of the
party and the County have been
mismanaged, or used for the per-.
sonal gain of any person or per.
sons, to appear at any OF such
meeting and enter into debate
with the speakers at such meet.
ings upon the question Of the
fitness Of any OF the present Off
GERS or the party organization.
Any person so requesting will
be furnished a list of the dates
and places OF such meetings as
soon as the same can be arranged
and published.
Respectfully.

Chairman OF the Republican
County Committee.

They do not, as do Irish emigrants,
bring their church going habits with
them. Some years ago. i'm response to
urgent appeals. not ii few Italian
priests were brought to this country
to minister to Italian congregations.
Some proved competent. but many
more proved otherwise. and while in
Italy today there are many priests who
would be glad to come here. there are
few bishops here who want them. Re-
Gently a theological seminary has been
established at Troy. Here are sent sons
of Italians, born in this country. 1t is
hoped that these sons will understand
American ways, and may be trusted
to minister to Italian congregations.
But whether this project will remedy
full in the minds the leaders of the
church. That which makes the situa-
ton even more grave is the readiness
of the Italians to turn protestant, eS-
pecially Baptist and Methodist. Both
of these bodies are making rapid pro-
gress in the founding of congregations
and it is said that considerable pro-
portion of the new membership is re-
cruited from Italian Catholics. The sit
uation has become so serious that it
is felt that something must be done
and done at once if the Catholic
church is to retain it's hold on the
thousands of Italians settled in the
United States. At the present meeting,
it is said. the situation will be care
fully considered from every point OF
view and the results of the discus
sions will be sent to Rome for cOnsid-
GRAFTON by the vatican.

POPE Plus SAID TO FAVOR II

WASHINGTON, ID. c.. Jan. 30.-Will
the project of creating primate in
the United States be discussed by the
Roman Catholic archbshops now as
sembling in Washington for special
meeting of the American hierarchy?
This is the question that is just now
uppermost in the minds of churchrnen
and of large part of the general pub
lie. The report that such is the pur-
pose of the present meeting of the
archbishOps has been repeatedly de-
MED during the last few weeks, but on
the other hand the opinion is express
ed that the matter will undoubtedly re-
ceive attention. Those holding the lat
ter view base their belief upon the re-
cent reports from Rome to the effect
that Pope Plus has expressed the opin-
ion that it would be very much better
for the churches of the English speak
ing countries to manage their own
business without interference from
Rome. In other words, his holiness is
understood to have proposed to grant
home rule to the Catholics of the
United States and Australia. AS the
situation is viewed in Catholic circles
here it would be necessary to appoint
a primate before this plan could be
carried out in the United States.
The present scheme of governing the
affairs Of the Catholic church in this
country is regarded as out of date
and its workings in many particulars
as unsatisfactory. For instance. every
time a priest has a grievance or a
bishop has trouble with his flock or
his subordinates he rushes immedi-
ately to the vatican with charges and
complaints. Every time a new college
is to be started or any ather plan pro-
posed. it is necessary for somebody to
go to Rome and ask permission. al
though there are plenty of bishops
dinal in the United States. not to men
