The extension of the sanitary sew
erage from Ninth street TO Fountain
avenue on Broadway has aroused a
great deal of discussion since brought
up in the Sun several days ago. The
latest plan suggested is for the city
to issue bonds and pay for the ex-
tension. There are various other
plans suggested. but none of them is
practicable. One is for the school
board to pay all excess cost over 81
a foot, which would bankrupt the
board II It had any money and could
legally spend IL for that purpose.
The charter, however, does not per-
nit the school board to spend money
for street improvements or sewers.
Another plan is TO have the prop
erty owners pay the additional cost,
although the law does not require
them to pay more than 81 a front
foot, and for the Illinois Central to
pay over a good lump sum to get
the sewerage past its hospital. II Is
not believed this plan would work,
for most of the property owners
would probably. object TO paying
more than the legal pro rata; at least
some of them would certainly OBJ

NO, my friend, do not try to excuse
yourself for not practicing your reli-
gion, for you yourself, and only YOU,
are the loser. When you quit the
church for any reason you are hurting
yourself immensely and hurting others
by your bad example, but are not hurt
ing the church. If you mean it as re-
venge, you are taking revenge not
against the priest, bishop or people,
but against God Himself, for 1t is He
who requires you to live up to the
Church. HE that. despiseth you (the
Church) despiseth Me-" are the words
OF God Himself. Let every one assure
himself that, though his parish. If

The second and much more serious
error is that all the children (of this
marriage of Ephraim Blaine and Maria
L. Gillespie, James G. Blaines parents)
We're brought up in the Presbyterian
faith This is absolutely false. They
We're all brought up, not in the Pres
byterian faith, but in the religion of
their mother, the Catholic faith. And
not only that, but James G. Blaine's
father, Ephraim, died in that faith and
his remains rest in the Catholic ceme-
terry at Brownsville, Pa, beside those
of his Catholic wife.
These are facts we'll known to the
older residents of the place, and were
furnished me by the Catholic priest of
Brownsville, who prepared James G.
Blaine for confirmation and his first
holy communion in the Catholic faith
Perhaps this will throw new light or
what Mr.. Blaine wrote when he was 8
candidate for the presidential nomina-
ton: I will never consent to make an,
public declaration on the subject (o1
religion). No pressure will ever draw
me into any avowal of hostility or un.
friendliness to Catholics And fol
good reasons evidently.
Yet later on by a strange irony thu
public declaration of Burchard touch
ing religion, and that the religion o
Catholics, lost James G. Blaine th,

to hide away and conceal was in tn,

JAMES G. BLAINE.
His Mothers Religion and the Religion

His Mothers Religion and the Religion
in Which He was Brought Up.
Father Sheedy of Altoona, Pa, writes
the New Your Sun under date of No
vember 20:
ITO the Editor of the Sum-,
"Sir-In the book notice of the life
of James G. Blaine in Sundays Sun
find the following statement:
"In 1920 Ephraim Lyon Blaine mar
ried Maria Louise Gillespie. also a de-
scendant of a Scotch-1rish immigrant,
but a Roman Catholic. The marriage
ceremony was performed by a priest
of the Roman Catholic church at the
Gillespie homestead. BY divergence
from the usual practice in the case of
the marriage of Catholic and Prot
estant, all the children were brought
up in the Presbyterian faith
"Now, there are here two glaring err
rors that, for the sake Of historical ac-
curacy, should be corrected. Whether
the errors are to be credited to Edward
Stanwood. the writer Of the life OF
Blaine, or to the reviewer, ! cannot
state. am however, inclined to think
that they are due to Mr.. Stanwood and
are quite inexcusable in one who is
said to be exceptionally qualified for
the task undertaken by him.
"The first false statement is that
Mr.. Blaine's mother, Maria Louise Gill
lespie, was a descendant Of Scotch
Irish immigrant No; there was no
Scotch in her makeup; Gillespie is
pure Irish without any admixture OF
Scotch or anything else. Let US be
done with this 'Scotch-1rish' myth, at
least when we come to write honest
history.
