FREAKIsH TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT.

The announcement that Catholic lady of Chi
cago, presumably a society leader, is to start
movement having for its object the social ostracism
of all Catholic women who are not total abstain
ers along with those who serve wine at dinners, is
startling. All the more because she is a Catholic.
1t starts the thought and almost fixes the convic-
ton that women are the same the world over ever
anxious and enthusiastic for new fads and never
serious in contemplation of the issue. Up to this
time, however, Catholic women engaged in tenn
perance work have been content to follow the pre-
cepts of Christian persuasion and example Now
an attempt is to be made to ram total abstinence
down the throats eff Catholics under the penalty of
social ostracism. With all its tomfoolery and
fanaticism, the Womens Christian Temperance
Union never went to such lengths.
Let us look this proposition square in the
face The more prosperous and intelligent of the
Catholic population are descendants of the Irish
and German races. Speaking for the Irish, TEN
perance is necessary preparation to success in all
the affairs of life. The practice of total absti-
nence would elevate them still higher. Drink only
inflames an ardent, excitable temperament, and
Irishmen endowed with these aggressive at
tributes. Therefore all the better if they let drink
alone entirely. But you can never drive an Irish
man or an Irish woman. You may persuade and
win them over to your side, but never if coupled
with persuasion Is the threat of cutting their ac-
quaintance unless they yield compliance.
The Germans are not of an ardent and excitable
temperament, and therefore drink is less harmful
to them than it is to Irish consumers The Ger
mans take it with their food. They can talk half
the day over it. 1t appears to be- of the neces
stiles of their social life. Any person who watches
them i'll pleasant conversation at summer gardens
with their families enjoying the music can not
help envying a that drinks without getting
drunk There is little need for total abstinence So
cieties among German Catholics, or Protestants
either.
Now imagine the Daughters of Temperance
such as this Chicago woman proposes to organize.
dropping all efforts at moral persuasion and lust
setting themselves up as the pinks of perfection
Into this prudish circle none are admitted who
take even one glass of wine. Out of this prudish
circle goes the edict that all friendship and charity
for Catholics other than their own particular kind
of Catholics must cease. Turn away and avoid
Them if they were afflicted with pestilence.
Charge their own children to cease PLAYING with
the children of neighbors And all because these

alien conqueror. The example of Sweden and Nor
way should events turn out as they promise to turn
out, is without precedent in history and for the
first time impress upon nations the external sig
nificance of peace on earth to men of good will.
c. c. Berner president of the Norwegian storth-
ing, said to the Associated Press Norway at
present desires to continue under a monarch. This
fact and a spirit of Cancellation caused our offer
of the throne to a prince of the house of Berna-
dotte. This offer has brought forth no answer.
Norway, however cannot wait forever and in
reasonable time will consider the failure to answer
as a refusal and will invite another prince to oc-
cupy the throne. The storthing would not take the
responsibility Of deciding in favor of a republic
but would refer that question TO the people"
OF course if the people through plebescite de
clare their preference for monarchy rather than
a republic, the acceptance of the Danish prince
supported by the emperor of Germany would be the
wsest thing to do under the circumstances. In
common with all other potentates of Europe, Viii
liam is constitutionally opposed to republics so
near his domnons as France is and Norway would
be. His belief in the divine right of kings trans
cends any article of his Lutheran creed Therefore
in the beginning Norway ought to be foxy and
placate the Kaiser.
But whether it be a Danish king Nor
wegian president this Scandinavian people may
elect, this side of the ocean people who think
perceive a tendency for self-govenment in all the
countries of Europe
