a demand for special privileges for
another class.
1t appears that in this community a
newspaper which does not support the
demands of one class or the other can
not hope to gain the necessary sup
port. 1t is to be hoped for the cause
of real Democracy that the passing of
the Times will not lead to the estab-
lishment of yellow journal in our
midst. We have become accustomed
to hide-bound Republican organs.
There is also evidence that the people
are beginning to lose faith in some of
the doctrines advocated by these Or
gans. Their power for evil is limited
because of the length of time that they
have been established. People expect
them to support Republican candidates
and policies through thick and thin
and consequently the fact that they
do support those candidates and pol
icies has little weight. Should there,
however, be established here a news
paper holding itself out as Democratic
but which would refuse to support
any but Socialistic candidates it's
power for harm would be considerable.

Patrick Collins asked nothing for the
Irish that he was not anxious to see
granted to immigrants or native born
of every race-line, color and creed,
says the Boston Pilot. His sense of
brotherhood and justice was so fully
realized that the Italians held men,
orial meeting for him; words of high
est appreciation were spoken of him
by the Germans; the Hebrews prayed
for his soul at the installation of Rab-
bi Eichler at Temple Ohabel last Sun
day, and sent their sympathy to the
bereaved family. The church of the
Advent - Ritualist - included him in
the Mondays commemoration of the
dead; and, finally, the Methodist
preachers meeting, held on the same
day, adjourned as a mark of respect
and sent a beautiful letter of sympathy
to Mrs. Collins. The Chinese of Bos-
ton sent beautiful floral offering, and
the Negro citizens, to whom the de-
parted had always been devoted
friend, eulogized him at their meetings
and rejoiced that one of their race
was assisting in the care of him dur

tor of the Catholic church at Mimic,

sidine's Silver Jubilee" appears the
following in the Review of that date:
"Tle first priest ordained for the old
Vicariate Apostolic OF Dakota is
Father John w. Considine. now pastor
OF Mimic, N. D. The twenty-fftf an
niversary of his ordination occurred
on the 21st of last February, and the
twenty-6fth anniversary Of his arrival
in Dakota, at Pembina, was the 18TH
Of last April. The Right Rev. John
Stanley, Bishop of Fargo, one of the
three bishops who now administer
what used to be. as late as II years
ago. Bishop Martyrs vicariate, wished
to celebrate this double silver jubilee
i'll fashion becoming the admirably
amicable relations between himself and
his clergy. Wishing to get together
as many Of them as possible, he chose
the summer and day in the middle of
the week, so that the Sunday-laboring
missionaries might be free to fore
gather. which would have been more
difficult in the cold days of February
and the busy Lenten days Of April.
The 18th of July, falling on Wednes-
day, seemed all the more fitting in that
this Catholic festival would rub off
some OF the birthstone that Orange
celebrations yearly deposit on that
date.

Southern Minnesota Pioneer Dead.

The death of Michael Dowd occurred
at his home in Newry September %
at 8 o'clock a. m. The funeral was
held Hlonday at 10 o'clock from St.
Mary's Catholic church. A very large
number of his friends and neighbors
followed the remains to his last rest
ing place.
Though Mr.. Dowd was a man about
80 years of age he had always been
in excellent health until three or four
years ago, when his strong constitu-
ton showed signs of breaking down.
He visited friends at Austin a week
before his death and returned home
Monday somewhat i'll. A doctor was
called, but it was thought that In a
few days he would be all right again.
A severe asthmatic attack followed,
which resulted in heart failure and
caused his death.
Mr.. Dowd was born in Boyle. County
Roscommon, Ireland, and came to this
country in 1916. He first came to Min
nesota in 1860 and shortly afterwards
was married to Anna Mccoy, whom
he survived about ten years. His first
residence was in Mower county, near
Austin. He moved to his farm in
Newry over 40 years ago, which place
has since been his home. BY his in
dustry and perseverance he made from
the wilderness home that was a
credit to him. Blessed with good
health he was always genial and had
hosts of friends. All through life he
cherished fond and patriotic attach
ment for his native land. Two sons
and two daughters survive him, Mich

society. The parade was the society's
thirtieth public protest against bias
phemy and profanity. There were 70
branches of the society in the parade,
organized into sixteen divisions, each
of which went to the particular church
assigned to it. A sermon condemning
profanity was preached at each of the
churches. There is no vice so cause
less, so utterly without passion as that
of profanity. In the great majority of
cases the use of profanity is due to
habit, but it is a habit which does
the cause of religion a great deal of
harm. To profess to be member of
the church and at the same time to
constantly take the name of God in
vain not only works against the sal
walton of the individual but it scan
dalizes all religion.
