God for the one bulwark OF every citi-

Avoiding even the semblance of ex-
aggeration, one can calmly assert we
have now in this country several com

themselves apparently securely, this

say nothing of the numerous smaller

The supreme court Of the United States
is open to every citizen that can prove
that any trust or combine Is doing
business in restraint of trade or de-
stroying competition.
One other thing must be borne In
mind and that is the selection Of pub

government. A Roosevelt as president,
or Van SAINT as governor, made suits

IL the people of a state elect a govern

whose avowed sympathies and open
action is with the Ubiquitous trust or

political buncombe. but solid sense.
Unfortunately the environment of pub

benumbed conscience in matter of the
rights of the people. Many cases are
in present history Of "a man of the
people" elected to office becoming
long before his successor is named,
a friend of the corporations. We must
expect such things. but to use to select
for places of honor and power, men
who at the outset are hand lin glove

absurd But we do it. and then cry

My sister and visited an "institu-

the site Of stone Presbyterian
church, pure Gothic, that was famous
for its stained glass, lofty columns and
forest arches forty years ago. AS boy
in my early teens had to go to Sun

pile for two and one-half years. 1t was

awful, forbidding, and from the first
Sunday set foot in it, and heard Rev.

moving to the Highlands, and Father
Connolly has some of the leading busi-
ness men of the city in his parish. He
is pious as we'll as learned pastor.
Some of his sermons have recently
appeared in the Record and have been
read with interest.
In due time the congregation of St.
Charles Borromeo, 200 West Chestnut
street, must have a new church building
and the Rev. Charles P. Ratio is looking
to that end. The present building is
wholly inadequate to accommodate the
large number of people who go there on
Sundays and holy days. Father Ratio is
one at the most eloquent of the Catholic
clergy and is held in the highest esteem
by everybody. He is native of Louis
vile of Italian parentsge.
The dear old Brook-street church Of
St. Michael, of which the Rev. John
Sheridan is the pastor, is not attended by
congregations as large as in I'VE olden
time, :" when the fathers and mothers Of
the present generation we're young, but
still a great many go there, and Father
Sheridan does his part to keep up the
work started half century ago.
The German Catholics of Louisville
have reason to feel proud of the fine
church edifices and the devotion of their
Pensioners. Congregations like st. Bon
iface, St. Martins, St. Anthouy's and
Immaculate Conception are ones which
any diocese might be proud of.
The orders of St. Dominick, St. Fran
els and the Passionists are strong and ably
represented in this city. The Dourinicans
probably have the largest congregation
in the city at St. Louis Bert-and's. and
the Franciscans are not far behind.
From the Passionist Retreat, on the New
burg road, at the outskirts of the city,
devoted missionaries are sent to all parts
of the country to preach the gospel.
of course in this article only brief
mention can be made of the work of the
clergy in this city, and all Of the churches
have not been named. The purpose Of
this article is to give brief resume of
some of the work being done by the
clergy and laity for the betterment of the
Catholic community in the city of Louis
vile and vicinity.
Catholics have reason to feel proud of
their clergy, their churches and the devo-
ton of many Of their membership. Let
us hope that during the coming year

than during the year now about to close.
