THIS PRIEST breaches IN SIX Ian
GIrAGES

The presence Of so many foreigners of various
nationaIities in the Canadian northwest has put
a great strain upon the Catholic clergy there For
merly the large COMMUNICATING Catholic popul-
alton caused difficulties Now, it appears the
Slavs and Poles are Increasing very considerably,
and the Bishops and priests have in some instances
had more difficulties than they could cope with.
Undoubtedly one of the chief has been that of Ian
guage Not every priest is a ingost by natural
ability or opportunity. However, the Rev Father
Kulavy, O. NJ. l., is lingoist, and he has lately
been putting his polygot abilities at the disposition
of the Catholics of Edmonton, town in the prov
ince of Assiniboia, Canada. He found that there
were Catholics in the parish speaking only English
or German or French of Polish or Ruthenin
Greek As the reverend Father was conversant'
with these languages, he has lately preached in all
six, so that the Pensioners might have the benefit
of hearing the Word Of God in their own mother
tongue

PRIESTS PROTEST AGAINST ALDERMAN


An open letter against Stanley H. Kunz, alder
man and candidate for reelection in the Sixteenth
ward, Chicago, has been issued in the name of the
Catholic priests of the order of the Resurrectionist
Fathers and signed by their Chicago superior, Very
KEY John kasprzycki, G. r., rector of st. Stanis-
laus Catholic Church, Noble and Ingraham streets
The letter states that priests the signers do
not wish TO mix up in politics for political purposes
but feel it their duty to against public sins
and mlsdeeds and drive vice from public life. The
Sixteenth ward the appeal says, made up largely
of Polish Catholics and it is to them and in their
behalf the appeal IS made. The appeal then pictures
the deplorable conditions III the ward and says:
TO explain and remove all question and cir
culated reports that W. PRIESTS living in the Six
teenth ward any way directly or indirectly favor
or support the abuses and trickery of Kunz. who
had the effrontery to insult, abuse and heap cal
jimmy upon us as priests, We hereby declare that
the whole conduct of the present senator-aderman
is bad and opposed TO all social order and particu
larly 1T nerferes with work for the good of the
Polish Catholics here and we are bound to warn all
the people of It, the people to whom kunz ironically
declares the people want me
In making this declaration we do not care at
all to enter into warfare with Kunz nor to in
teretere or take part in any street or curbstone
politics; we merely warn the people, those who are
loyal TO the Catholic Church and the Christian
faith, and who are being misled by disturbing in
dividuals, and we point to them where the danger
is
I'VE have confidence that the people will heed
our advice and that the people will on election day
speak forth and show that they go the right way
and will declare whom they want as representative
IN the city council-whether man who will per-
form his duty with conscience, who is recognized
as such and has the endorsement of the Municipal
Voters league, or man who is deprived of any
regard feeling in the performance of his duties,
who is condemned by the Municipal Voters league
and who bring no honor at all to ward. "-Cath-

written by lie Comte de Segur we come across the
following altogether unexpected passage referring

mysterious affinity with the soul. The frequent OBJ

self to the heart in a familiar language, for she
speaks to il Of love: and welding this powerful
instrument for The governing of souls, she thrusts
down her roots the deeper as she finds in the ca
racity Of loving fresher and more fertile soil. In
fact, She has the strongest hold on the heart that

A mist of fragrant incense fills the air
And yeiis the lights upon the altar throne;

And silent glory fingers everywhere

For angels bend i'm alteration there,

school halls. The custom met with the disapprovaI
OF large number of Catholics who thought it i'm
proper to trun church buildings into adiuncts of
political parties-oftnnes to foster the candidates
whose records did not afterwards commend them
selves TO Catholics. Some of the Polish priests did
not approve of the custom. Father Cora of St.

THE MOTHER.
By Charles Hanson Towne.
+;ra6 If rOi1-Of everything

BY Charles Hanson Towne.
She was so tired of roil-Of everything
Save loving those who needed all her love
Her heart was like the golden heart OF Spring
When white clouds sail above.
Autumn of life and tears were hers: and yet
She sang and loved, and gladdened us the while
Nor storms nor snow could make her once forget
Young ApriIs radiant smile.
She was so weary; but never guessed
How weary, till she smiled at set of sun,
And Whispered she drifted into rest
My loving now is done
Tired of all save loving!" Let this be
The epitaph inscribed where now she lies
Time shall not hide the words, nor memory
The love-look of her eyes.
