And strong brown faces bravey pale
For Tear their proud attempt shall fail,

While the circle stroke of his sabre, swung

When the Sherman monument was dedicated at
Washington few years ago, Corporal Tanner (now
commander of the G. A. RI. in speech that
son alluded to the gallant charge by Major Pat
keenan, at the battle of Chancellorsvie Va You re-
quested Martin l. j. Griffin of Philadelphia the his

Tanners statements. Such facts were not presented
by Mr. Griffin. L have been the lookout since for
something relating to the event narrated by Tanner

taking up Rev. Goshens notes of alarm sun
pose we anaIyze them to find what foundation he
has for ncendiary utterances.
1t Is found at present that immigration ia tbie
country exceeds any previous period. and that the
maximum number are Jews driven by persecution
from Russia and natives of southern Eurone Grant
eel Where does the peril come in? Russian Jews.
Savs, Greeks and Italians landed in this country
ten years ago-twenty, thirty years ago. These
have become absorbed in our political and social
system, and have benefited rather than hurt our
industrial activity. Nearly every trace of foreign
habit and custom, and all traces of foreign illit-
eraey are wiped out i'll the second generation of
such people They are good artisans, laborers mer-
chants, husbandmen and better STILL they are good
American citizens. Nobody can pick out any Of
these races and say their people are inclined to
crime because they come from Russia. or southern
Europe, Or any other part of Europe. Nobody can
accuse them as persons addicted to race suicide or
to the cultivation of the graft conscience. to fire.
quent divorce and those other evils which saturate
Anglo-American society.
1t is true that the present large immigration
may land our soil undesirable persons but not 50
many to excite alarm. Under our Immigration
laws and the vigilance of inspectors no anarchist
dare set his foot here, person with an ncurabIe
disease or one without visible means of support is
permitted to enter Every day or two we read Of
deportations for these causes. This being true.
then what motive moves Rev. Goshen to brighten
the school ma'ams All, the natives of southern
Europe arc Catholics! As Catholics they will be
taught hostility to the public schools There's the
rub.
As matter of fact, the only ones justified in
Directing to foreign immigration and who at the
same time offer substantial argument are the mem
bers of trades unions. They perceive the peril to
a living wage,in the. large number willing to work
for any wage rendered It is labor conditions |
rather than religious conditions that are most af
fected by heavy immigration.

A MINISTERIAL ALARMIST.

Down in the bottom of his heart is Rev. Elmer
l. Goshen an inveterate hater of the Catholic
Church and its Institutions? Or should he be char
ltably considered as the young preacher who may
learn wisdom he grows older? Let us take the
latter view the best explanation for that itching
for notoriety which finds expression in his polite
bgotry and oratorical fub-dub.
What Rev Goshen may utter in the Congrega-
tlonal church does not concern Catholics, except
those utterances are published in the daily papers
and in sense become public property. 1t is only
when the incendiary habit gets the best of him at
public functions and his utterances are liable to
mislead the mixed crowds do we take the preacher
seriously 1t is then time for sane persons to call
him down
Take for example the Grafton he delivered at
Mount Olivet cemetery on last Memorial Day
Very appropriate and in harmony with the occa-
sion, up to a certain point. Another would have
been tactful and quit at the right time; another
would certainly avoid inviting the resentment of
old veterans of the Catholic faith; another would
remember that many graves of soldiers of foreign
nativity were less than a mile distant from the
platform from which he spoke, among them the
grave of General Patrick Connor an Irishman by
birth, an American by adoption and Catholic in
creed.
But not so the Rev. Elmer l. Goshen. He pre-
tended to peer into the destiny of the republic. and
see the breakers ahead To his vision two great
dangers would soon confront the American people
One was foreign immigration. The other was the
assault upon the public schools and the demand for
sectarian division of the school moneys Both
propositions We're fim-hammed in presentation so
as to appear that the first was the coroary of the
second The impression intended for the listener
and the opinion Rev. Goshen wanted
carried away, was that the Objectionable
foreign immigration came from Catholic
countries and that these illiterate and
dangerous persons led in the fight against the pub
lie schools. The word Catholic" was not men
toned, but everybody knew the preacher meant it.
Somebody might say that this address was de-
hvered 50 long ago~that it is no longer matter of
local interest. Just So were it not fact that Rev.
Goshen IS still injecting false alarm into later
public functions The most recent exhibition took
place at meeting of all the teachers of the public
schools: The same bugaboo about foreign immi-
grafton and the assault upon the public schools
that he conjured up at Mt. Olivet, Rev. Goshen
presented to the schoolma ans, with one modifca
ton Inferentially he admitted that the assault
upon the public schools was not delivered by per-
sons of one denomination alone, but others would
share his condemnation. Such admission argues
that Rev. Goshen has been reading up since Dec
grafton Day.

The Intermountain Catholic. (Salt Lake City [Utah] ;) 1899-1920, 1905-09-30

The Catholics of Salt Lake are peaceabe and
desire to live in peace with their neighbors They
make no upon the public schools, and, p6pula-
tion considered, Catholics pay more in taxes for
their support than the members of any other sect
At the same time they pay handsomely for the
education of their children in other places, thereby
not aggrayating the present congestion by reason
of inadequate school room in the city schools Do
the taxpayers appreciate it? Does Rev. Goshen
ever think Of it2
And while this matter is on our mind, could
not superintendent of schools have chosen some
other than sectarian preacher to talk to the
schoolna ans. That of itself smacks of sectarian-
ism. The superintendent need not have gone out
of the school board for an orator or a scholar
Why not Hon. III. P. Henderson instead of min

Il " 4 Ala our youth and our
schools, Greeting.
We come this year again to fill this
space which the editor of this paper has
given US, with no apology, but with an
ticipation that the same approval be
given as was given last
winter by teachers and others. So we
will have but few words to explain our
purpose, since that was done when it
was first originated. Teachers at once
recognize it to be means for news and
brief expression of thoughts, senti-
ments, and experiences which viii! en-
able us to help each other in our pro-
fession of perpetuating the welfare of
mankind. To the general reader, we
will say in the language of another
thus: 1.-The public school is, or shoull
be, public concern, operated for the
benefit of the public We wish to
make it so; hence, all read the School
News space and be ready to help us by
moral support rather than unproffes-
sional criticism.
If any motto should be chosen for Is
as teachers for this years work, we re-
fer to the short stanza. quoted above
all that is in it. And for fear that we
should lose part of it by taking it all
for motto, we woull simmer it down
to few words,-the mate worth of the
individual. Shall we erdeavor to find
it and develop it? By so doing we can
make the publ. school ''public bene-
fit and insure worth and happiness to
the individual.
DR.. Sanford Bell of the state univer-
sity, in lecture which we heard him
deliver at the Teachers Institute in
Lamar last spring, said, "Our first duty
is to grow, then our next duty is to
help our neighbor grow" He conveyed
the idea also that we are to keep on
growing, teachers to grow while
teaching, scholars to grow while at
school, the country to grow through
the influence Of schools, s,--God's King
dom to grow, for where there is civili-
zation and education God is recognized.
How comprehensive the whole history
of mankind must be. How particular
ly responsible is the place of teacher,
for his is particularly to help others
grow,-accomplished best by recogniz-
ing that "inate th"-finding those
faculties most susceptible to develop
ment which will make that worth"
grow. Of course we will not take the
restrictive sense of DR.. Bells phrase
"to grow" He meant it to be compre-
hensive.

Railroad Should
Investigate This.

The Guthrie, Fairview G. West
ern Railroad Construction COM
pany have printed on the back of
their letter heads a map of their
proposed line through Oklahoma
to Trinidad and Pueblo. The
map was certainly made without
investigation into the feasibility
of the route as outlined. 1t
shows the route as running from
Beaver to Guymon, Oklahoma,
where it crosses the Rock Island,
thence to Mineral Up. o. and
northwest past Kenton into Colo
RADIO near the point of juncture
of this state, New Mexico and
Oklahoma, then practically due
west to Trinidad and north to
Pueblo over the accustomed
route.
AS far as Mineral the route
would perhaps be practicable and
cheaply built, but how the rail-
road company expects to ascend
the abrupt Black mesa at Ken
ton is unexplained. 1t is well
known that a road cannot be
built as shown by the map. The
company should send representa-
tives to investigate this matter
at once. They will see that a
much better route lies wholly
north of the Cimarron in Colora-
do, where the railroad can be
built cheaply on the flats. 1t
would also be a better paying
proposition to run entirely north
of the Cimarron, to enter Colo
RADIO at it's eastern line.
Were road built now on the
proposed route it would draw
practically no business from this
county as our people would soon
er drive their herds to the Santa
Fe than to a road as far south,
and freighting from the Santa
Fe would be preferred on account
of better roads.
A railroad would lose nothing
by keeping On the flats in this
county, as much of the Clmarron
trade now comes to our mer-
chants, fifty miles distant, rath-
.er than go the shorter journey to
Kenton, or Clayton, N. M, on
account of our lower prices.
This county with her million
and half acres of good farming
