him a note-you have it in your hand.
The man took it and read it. before
he realized that it was not intended

it was for a woman. He half smiled,
thinking Of the pages stupidity, and
that he had happened upon a liaison
of that most virtuous King. He was

thing in his craven face made him in

only too well aware of his sensitive

a spirit of strength and manliness

when luxury is promoting effeminacy

of the opinion that football even in its

harmful than the college clubs where
young men are often first introduced
to the accessories of fast living. 1t is
to be hoped for the sake of manly
sport that football as played at col

it unnecessary and undesirable to abol-
ish it.

POLITICS IN GREAT BRITAIN.

It seems to be pretty we'll conceded
that the next general election in Great
Britain will defeat Unionists and put
the Liberals in power. 1t is not by any
means, however. so we'll known what
the policy of the Liberal Party will be
in reference to Ireland. The Liberal
leaders are as hopelessly divided on
the Irish question as the Unionist lead
ers are on the fiscal question. Sill

THE VISIT OF THE BRITISH.

Even the small number Of Ameri-
cans who were really in favor Of an
Anglo American alliance must admit
that the recent visit of the British
fleet to American waters did not have
the effect desired and hoped for. New
York city did not prove to be over
running with enthusiasm for the Brit
ishers. No public demonstration was
attempted. There were some private
affairs from which the general public
was carefully excluded so that no
hostile demonstration might be made.
The only public meeting held in con-
nection with the visit was that at
Cooper's Institute where q large meet
ing assembled to protest against any
alliance with Great Britain. Prince
Louis of Battenberg was received by
the municipal officers of the city of
New York in a courteous manner, but
great care was taken that no special

there was a parade and great public
demonstration at which Prince Henry
was present, and German flags
mingled freely with American flags.
The difference in the two receptions is
no doubt due to the influence of the
large number of Irish-Americans in
New York. Those who were really

Australia for Home Rule.

The federal house of representatives
at Melbourne, Australia, last week,
adopted by 80 to Fl votes a motion to
petition King Edward to grant home
rule to Ireland.
This success of the home rulers In
attributed in large measure to Will
liam Redmond's recent campaign in
Australia. The motion had been holly
debated and the labor party and lib
erals supported the home rulers.
The federal premier, Alfred Deakin,
in the course of the debate, promised
to vote for the home rule principle as
a necessary preliminary to the fedora
ton of the empire. but he would have
preferred resolution simply express
ing the opinion of the house to a pc
tition, which might lead to an unwel-
come answer from the Balfour govern
ment.

OBSERVANCE OF THANKSGIVING

Last Thursday for the first time in
the Archdiocese Of st. Paul the OBJ
servance of Thanksgiving Day was
commanded by the Archbishop of the
Diocese. In a letter to the clergy the
saying of Mass and the delivery of a
sermon proper to the character of the
day was ordered. The rule laid down
in that letter was made the permanent
law Of the Archdiocese to be fol-
lowed on all succeeding Thanksgiving
days without further order. The ac-
ton Of Archbishop Ireland is highly
commendatory not only from the
standpoint of religion but from that of
good citizenship.
The Catholic Church, which has ever
been the first in acknowledging the SUI
premacy OF God and in rendering thanks
for his manifold blessings, should miss
no opportunity to join with all the
citizens in national thanksgiving for
the blessings vouchsafed to the people
as a nation. A universal observance
by the Church of Thanksgiving Day
throughout the United States by order
of ecclesiastical authority would be
nothing new or extraordinary in
church history. The yearly proclama-
ton of the President of the United
States and the governors OF the differ
ent states setting apart common day
for rendering thanks to Almighty God
is the outgrowth Of a custom which
the first settlers in New England
adopted. Now that this custom has
become the law Of the nation and also
the law of large majority Of the in
dividual states 1t is proper that the
Church should give to the day that re.
| ligious tone which should attend Its
proper observance.
The adoption by the Church of {
festival or holiday in its inception non
Catholic is nothing new. Many Of thu
festivals Of the Church were instituted
to succeed pagan festivals. Some O
the days which the Church commando
its adherents to keep holy were Sc
apart in the early days of the Chris
tan era to be observed by the peopl
in place Of pagan celebrations. Tn
Archbishop of st. Paul shows tn
proper spirit by commanding Catholi
observance Of a day which In Its in
ception though Christian was non
Catholic.

SHOULD BE REFORMED.

The game of football is attracting
much attention from the press, college
authorities and public authorities.
Each year has added largely to the
number of young men and boys who
take part in the playing of the game.
The increased number Of participants
has lead to an increased number of
cases in which serious injury has been
inflicted through the playing of the
game. The fact that the game is dis
tinctively a college one adds an ex-
ceptional rivalry to it which in turn
increases the danger. Football as it
Is played Is certainly not a game for
weaklings. 1t Is q game that only
those who are perfectly sound in body
and strong of limb should engage in.
Like all outdoor sports worth engaging
in it has Its elements of danger. Take
away all possibility Of any hurt or
danger from the game and 1t ceases to
be worth while for those who are
strong and active. Human nature en-
joys going to the border Of danger
Ping pong and croquet are hardly the
games for youths of twenty weighing
two hundred pounds. 1t Is indisput-
able. however, that football as it is
now played is dangerous to life and
limb. Not more so perhaps than other

gerous. Reports so far from the two
states of Michigan and Wisconsin
! show that twenty-one men have been
killed and fifty-one wounded during
the open hunting season. This record
for two states far exceeds all the
casualties in the history Of American
| football yet we do not hear a great
! deal from wise editors about legis-
lation prohibiting the hunting of wild
game. Fathers who would sooner lose
their homesteads than miss their an
nual hunt are in favor Of abolishine
football. The remedy Is not In abol-
ishing sport which has taken such
a strong hold upon the general public
as football but in so modifying the
game as to reduce danger to the min
imum. The defects in football are
due to college authorities and those II
control of colleges athletics. The ac'
ton of Columbia College in abolishint
football is needlessly radical as Is also
the contemplated action Of the Cit,
Council of Chicago in forbidding foot
ball within that city. 1t is the opinion
of those who are expert in playing thu
game that the rules could be so modi
fed without taking away the interes

Governor Douglas of Massachusetts,
who refused to be the Democratic can
didate for reelection at the last cleo
ton, has announced, according to a
Boston dispatch, that he will be the
Democratic candidate for representa-
tive in Congress from the Fourteenth
Massachusetts district next year, If
nothing is done for reciprocity and
tariff revision in the coming session
of Congress. 1t is to be hoped that
Governor Douglas will become a can
didate and that he will be elected. He
has shown during his term of office
as governor that he is a man of origi-
nal Ideas. He is a refreshing in
stance of man in politics for the
good that he can do his fellow citizens
and not for personal gain that comes
to himself. He has ample means of
his own and needs no political prefer
ment to bring him distinction. He has
certain views, however, with the cour-
age and ability to present them. The
Massachusetts delegation in Congress
is badly in need of some one to repre-
sent the fast growing tariff revision
sentiment that exists in that state.

feature of their platform. These latter
leaders seem inclined to the belief that
the Irish can be wheedled out Of Home
Rule by other sops.
Mr.. Redmond, the leader of the Irish
Parliamentary Party, in recent
speech delivered in Glasgow, Scotland,
Irish could not be counted upon to
support the Liberals one whit sooner
than they would the Unionists unless
the Liberals are in favor Of Home
Rule. He pointed out the fact that in
the last session of Parliament the Lib
eral Party voted to a man for the
amendment which Mr.. Redmond pro-
posed to the address of the Crown.
This amendment declared that the
present system of government in Ire
land is in opposition to the will of the
people. 1t denounced the system as
giving the Irish people no voice in the
management of their own affairs and
that it lacked the confidence of any
section of the people, that it was also
productive Of discomfort and unrest
and incapable Of promoting the ma
terial and intellectual progress of the
people. With that declaration support
ed by the entire Liberal Party in his
hand Mr.. Redmond asked them by
what right, if they came into power,
they could continue to support the
present system Of government. There
is section Of the Liberal Party that
are Imperialists. This section is rep
resented by Lord Rosebery and they
are from principle opposed to HOME
Rule. There is another section rep
resented by such men as Mr.. Asquith
who are opposed to Home Rule be-
cause they believe that it Is unpopular
with the English constituencies and
consequently might endanger Liberal
success. The next few months will
call for a shrewd management and
leadership on the part of the Irish Ma
tionalists. In the present undecided
position of the Liberal Party it is
questionable matter as to how Irish
voters in England and Scotland should
vote as between Liberal and Unionist
candidates. Mr.. Redmond has advised
Irish electors to vote as body; that
if the Liberal candidate presented for
their votes is opposed to Home Rule
they should vote against him and de-
feat him, preferring rather to elect
Unionist member than a Liberal OPP
posed to Home Rule. AS between the
two English parties the Irish leaders
refuse to give any decision at the pres
ent time. If the Liberal Party is to be-
come a Unionist Party or has already
become such the Irish can not afford
to support it. One thing seems GER
tain; that the Irish leaders will make
it impossible for the Liberal leaders
to disregard their pledges in reference
to Ireland without endangering Liber-
al success. A large Liberal majority
at the next election might be as dis
astrous to Ireland as the success of
the Unionists. The desirable situation
would be that in which the Irish Ma
tionalists held the balance OF power
making it impossible for the Liberals
to form a government without Irish
help. In such situation the selection
Of Sir Henry Campbell Bannermann
or John Morley as Prime Minister
would be assured and his retention in
power would depend upon the faithful
ness with which he and his govern
ment observed their pledges to the
Irish leaders.
