AS archbishop of Philadelphia,
naturally stand half way between
New York and Baltimore"
Advises Iowa Democrats.

Judge Martin j. Wade, the lone Dem
ocratic congressman from Iowa, has
written a letter to his party friends in
Iowa strongly advising them against
instructing their state delegation to the
ST. Louis convention for anybody.
Judge Wade's counsel is good and will
go far toward preventing hasty action
in the party in that state.
81 have no fault to find with any
man because he is supporter Of Mr..
Hearst or of any other man." the judge
writes. 81 do not seek to interfere
with any mans honest preference and
1 give every man full credit for hon
esty of purpose. But I am opposed to
any effort to instruct the delegation for
any candidate, whether it be Hearst
" Parker or Williams or German or
any other man. This opposition is
based on conditions which prevail in
our party in Iowa. Every Democrat
in the state knows that any attempt
to instruct for presidential candidate
will revive the old conflict and the bit.
terness which will be engcndered will
undo all that has been accomplished
toward solidifying the party.
'"There are two things that must be
borne in mind in the selection of can.
didate: First, his fitness, his dem.
ocracy; and, second, his capacity to get
votes in those states which must elect
the president. No matter what n mans
ability may be, if he cannot be elected
he can accomplish nothing for the par.
ty and nothing for the country. There
never has been time when the wei.
fare Of the nation and the honor Of the
flag so urgently demanded the election
of Democratic president.
"With Republican Senate which
will block every effort at legislation
against the trusts or for reducing the
iniquitous tariff upon which they fat.
ten we cannot do all that is desired, yet
we could with Democratic president
turn the rascals, high and low, out of
office and we could inauguratc sys-
tenn which would do away with de.
partmental rottenness which to-day
smells to heaven
ut is no time for hysteria; no time
for ill-advised or hasty action. 1t is
time for calmness, for dignity Of action,
for breadth Of judgment and for a
broad charity for the opinions Of every
man whose soul is imbucd with an
honest purpose to better the condition
Of the masses through Democratic vic.
tory at the polls in November.
"The truth is that the districts in
their caucuses will each select two
delegates who will represent the senti-
ment Of the people of the district. The
convention will select four delegates-at-
large Let these four be good represen-
tative Democrats, and then let the
delegation, knowing the sentiment of
their people, go to the convention and
exercise their honest judgment in view
Of all the circumstances there present

thing to do?"

HE'S A "CoRKER," ANYWAY.

CldtcS.
AS with the clergy, so with the
laity; the archbishop's tongue prevail
ed there, in one way or another.
"Your grace" said Wayne Mac
Veagh, when he was counsel for the
Pennsylvania railroad, "NIr. Roberts
here, our president, who always travels
with his counsel, will undoubtedly get
you passes over all the railroads in the
United States if in return you will
give him pass to Paradise"
"Ah," replied the archbishop, quiet
ly, 81 would do so if it were not for
separating him from his counsel"
The archbishop's reply made him
two influential friends, and it is
typical of the way in which lie has
kept Philadelphia in good humor for
twenty-four years.
At the same time he has not neglect
ed the Church. When he assumed
charge of the archdiocese it had
250,OO0 Catholic families; now it has
double that number.
He has built, just outside of Phil
adelphia, the second largest Augustin-
ian monastery in the world; the larg-
| est is in Spain. He has erected pro-
tectory for boys, founded several
large hospitals and with the $3.50, ZOO
which was collected as a gift for him
on his recent golden Jubilee, and which
! he refused to accept, he has started
building an orphanage.
The archbishop was once asked how
he raised all the money for his various
enterprises.
"Why," he replied, 81 just talk to
people and somehow they give"
1t was just his talking that ended
Philadelphia's great street railway
strike in 1895. This leading citizen
and that had tried, without success, to
get the strike leaders to arbitrate. A
big bribe had failed to move them.
Riot and disorder grew apace. The
city's business was paralyzed. Then
somebody thought of Archbishop
Ryan; he was approached, and con-
sented to see what he could do.
He went to the place where the
leaders were assembled. He intro.
| duced himself, and said he guessed it
| wouldn't hurt if they'd talk over the
situation little. 1t turned out that
the archbishop did about all the talk.
ing.
He got the men with him at the
start by funny story, and he held
them by the flashes of wit with which
he interspersed his argument. An
hour or so later, when he left the
meeting, he carried with him the word
OF the leaders that they would arbi-
trate. The next day Philadelphia was
peaceful town again and street cars
were running as usual on every line.

been almost solely that of a speaker,
gave him the honorary title Of arch
bishop Of Salamis.
This occurred in the same year that
Archbishop Wood, of Philadelphia,
died. Archbishop Wood had been ul-
tra-conservative. Among other things,
he would not let a. member of the
Grand Army of the Republic be buried
in a Catholic cemetery.
He held that the Grand Army of the
Republic was secret society. He
was opposed to all such organizations,
and he would have no rites other than
those of the Church at the grave. AS
a result, in Philadelphia, the leading
Protestant city in America, the city of
the most pronounced anti Catholic
riots of 1914, when eight churches were
burned and many people killed, the
progress Of the Catholic Church was
by no means what leading Catholics
desired.
Upon the death Of Archbishop Wood
the Church began looking around for
his successor. It did not take it long
to discover that Bishop Ryan was the
only man in sight who was fitted for
the post.
A man was wanted who could soften
the widespread hostility against the
Church; he would have to be solne-
thing Of diplomatist and man who
could use his tongue we'll. Bishop
Ryan, by means Of his wit and liberal
ity, had won host of Protestant
friends in st. Louis; his policy had re-
ceived the pope's stamp Of approval;
he was the man for the place.
So Patrick J. Ryan, coadjutor- bishop
Of the archdiocese of st. Louis, be-
came second archbishop of the lately
created archdiocese of Philadelphia.
His first act caused the town to
gasp. A G.. A. R. man, Catholic,
died, and, anxiously, the members of
the dead mans post presented them
selves before the archbishop and asked
if they might bury their comrade in
Catholic cemetery.
He not only gave his permission, but
he put on his chaplain's uniform,
preached the sermon and led the way
to the grave. And the veterans, for
getting that they were in church and
the solemnity Of the occasion, cheered
their new-found comrade in arms.
That act, supplemented by few
sermons revealing the speakers toler.
ance, oratorical powers and overflow
ing humor, broke down much Of the
old prejudice, and before long the
archbishop was addressing meetings,
religious and otherwise, not under
Catholic auspices.
At one Of them the Rev. DR.. Henry
G. McCook, Of the famous fighting
McCooks, and one Of Philadelphia's
leading Presbyterian ministers, walk
ed across the platform to grasp the
archbishop's hand, and to say that he,
too, had been a chaplain in the civil
war. Now, whenever DR.. McCook and
Archbishop Ryan attend banquets at
the Union league, Of which they were
members, they always see to it that
they sit side by side, and each in his
sermons frequently states that "my
good friend, DR.. McCook," or my
warm friend, Archbishop Ryan, de-
