PURITY IN POLITICS

The New York Globe and Commercial Advertiser has
this to say Of the Hearst vote in the recent New York
election:
While it is true that Mr.. Hearst received practically
en- masse the support of the reckless and understanding
classes that would destroy existing institutions without
thought of consequence or substitutes, the votes of these
alone would not have summed up anything like 225,000.
The socialstic and the semi-socialistic, the anarchistic
and semi-anarchistic, do not number this many. OF the
thousands who marched behind the Hearst banner per-
haps a majority were controlled by the thought of rebuk-
ing graft in politics and greed in business life. A feel
ing of evaporation recruited one hundred votes where
municipal ownership did ten"
The New York Sun, having been democratic through
so many years of its former brilliant career under the
elder Dana, seems to be actuated either by it's old politi'
cal leaning towards democracy, or, which is more prob
able, like most perverts, it desires 10 out-Herod the Heros
of republicanism himself in its opposition to Hearst's
course. 1t says:
The sympathies of the community In its hour OF
reflection and sobriety are not with Mr.. Hearst. Quite
the reverse. There is a widespread sense of relief from
a grave disaster and a calamity which was not rightly
apprehended before it had been averted.'
The Republican, of Denver, makes comment on these
statements that there is in these comments nothing to
indicate that the people of the metropolis had to any con
siderable extent taken the municipal ownership" war cry
OF the Hearst faction as anything more than it appeared
TO be from this dlstance-a resonant shiboleth that
served the purpose of a day without any real expecta-
ton of its being taken seriously as a political principle
There are two facts which the papers essaying TO be
leaders of thought in either of the two great political
parties would do well 10 put into the pipe of their medita-
ions and thoroughly smoke. One fact is that undeniably
a strong and growing sentiment IS tending towards
municipal ownership of monopolistic utilities, and this is
independent of and without reference to socialism Or any
other political ism thus far crystalized into political or
ganizauon. In fact this sentiment is dividing alike tue
socialists. the democrats and the republicans.
The second fact is that throughout the country, the
people have arisen in their wrath against bossism in
party, with its inseparable adjuncts of corruption and
thievery; and to overthrow this bossism 'be. pcop., are
willing TO vote for any candidate of whose election there
is reasonable probability, or who can be counted upon to
secure even a large minority. In fact, TO take away
from political positions the opportunity and the incite
ment for graft and corruption which cause the birth and
maintenance Of bossism, is the fundamental reason with
mulutudes for fayoTing municipal ownership.

cradle attendants, is not yet

DOES CHRISTIANITY TEACH
PREJUDICE AGAINST JEWS?

The indignant and panied amazement expressed in
Mr.. Bayley's answer to Mr.. Friedman will, we believe,
voice the sentiment of all Christian teachers. That
Jewish children are usually made to realize that they are
Jews by Gentle playmates is probably true, but that
hatred of the Jew is Systematically fostered in Sunday
schools and Christian homes" is hardly true.
The News has no interest in this matter except TO
remove misunderstanding from the minds of various
factors in the community-factors equally respected and
admired. 1t would also gladly help to remove whatever
abuse and %prejudices exist to the regret of Christian and
Jew alike.
Children are cruel in their thoughtlessness and
shallow fun making. Every ~red-haired chnds finds this
out. Every Italian child learns that he is a "dago"
Every German child is "Dutchy." Every Jewish child
is liable in the same way and for the same reason to
hear himself called a "sheeny.'
To be sure, if good manners and fine feeling were
carefully instiled into the minds of all children in ali
homes, and if children always behaved as their home
training dictates, none of these things would happen.
But this, unfortunately, is not the situation in this
faulty old world. Children deightedly catch at every
chance to tease their playmates even when in good
humor, and at every chance to torment when in a hate
full mood.
the Jewish people even in America is undoubtedly true,
but for this the Christian Sunday schools are not respon-
sible. Jewish seclusion and racial pride have much to
do with it. Jewish cleverness and success in bushes
ness class, naturally receives the petty jealousy and dis.
trust of both the unprosperous and competing.
But that any intelligent part of any American com.
munity deliberately encourages this feeling is far from
the truth. The churches are as little responsible for
whatever prejudice exists against the Jews as the Jewish
people are for the occasional purse-proud member of their
race whom the shallow persist in taking as typical of all.
The discussion will not. however, be unavailing if 1t
make parents more careful to check in their children
the coarse brutality which gets its fun by giving thought
less wounds to others. Epithets and such names based
on peculiarities of either personal appearance, race or
language are as ill bred as they are provincial and
narrow.
If parents can control anything in their %childrens
conduct they should be able to show them the abominable
indecency of this kind Of Tudeness.

It seems that at last a united effort on the part OF
the United States aud Canada is to he made To preserve
Niagara Falls. II has been apparent for SOME time
that the falls have been gradually wearing away. II is

O'Doherty was born in 1868, was a
lawyer by profession, and had been a
member of Londonderry corporation
since 1896. His death is serious loss
to the Irish party, as he was one of it's
most practical working members. 1t
strongly exemplifies the effect of the
constant strain of parliamentary work
on the human system. Fighting as they
are in the camp of the enemy, the
members of the Irish party must be
always on duty; and the atmosphere
of the London House of Commons Is
notoriously destructive to health. It
was this which broke down the iron
constitution of Parnell, who never
seemed to know what fatigue was, but
who was cut off in the prime of his
life, just as O'Doherty has been. To be
an Irish Nationalist representative,
and discharge faithfully all the re-
quirements of the position, involves
sacrifices of which the world has only
a slight appreciation.

Division No. l. A. o. H., held its
regular meeting last Sunday afternoon
in the Cathedral hall. The attendance
of the members was large and an in
teresting meeting was had. The mat
ter of the establishment of the Hibern

able remarks in support of the move
ment. 1t is an excellent move and no
doubt will prove great success. The
matter of the Hibernian home project
also came up for consideration and
many of the members made some very
fine talks in support of the project.
The movement receives the endorse
ment of Division No 1 of this city,
and it is sincerely hoped that it will
prove a great success. Rev. Father
Corbett, the chaplain of the division,
was present at the meeting and gave
a very clear, plain talk to the division.

Mgr. De Neve, of blessed memory,
who was the first president of that in

companions. His death took place at
his home, 222 North Fifty-third ave-
nue. West. He has lived there for thir-
teen years. He leaves a family of nine
children, five boys and four girls. The
boys all of whom live in West Duluth
and are we'll known there are:
Thomas A. S., James, Joseph E. L.,
John and William F. The other chill
dren are: Mrs. William Seguin, Mrs.

Another member of the family is JOS

Miss Brotherton, daughter of Solo,
mon Brotherton and who is dead. The
funeral was held Thursday morning at
y o'clock from St. James Catholic
church and ;nterment was had in Cal

feature of this affair is the misfortune
which has befallen Mrs. O'Brien, one
OF the daughters of the deceased. She
and her whole family are quarantined
with smallpox and she is therefore not
permitted to even look upon her

worries over her family, she is almost

He said, No. and added that the

paramount Importance is that of the
mother. AS we turn the pages of
memorys album, the first photograph
is the fairest and the best. The
mother makes the home. The word
itself-Mother-is sweeter to the
heart of man than honey and the
honeycomb'
1.-The influence of a good mother
has saved souls in the forming of
character, and the memory of her and
a happy home has always exercised
restraining power upon the passions
of man. Mothers love brings bright
ness to the home. Let us analyze
that love. 1t has two elements-sac-
rifice and devotedness. The duties of
the Christian mother are solemn. She
was free in entering into the COM
pact, but once entered upon her
course she becomes a power for the
full force of the natural law and it's
consequent obligations for the good
of the race and the preservation of
public order.
Maternal love implies devotedness.
The whole being of the mother should
be wrapped UP in the interests of her
children. She is the great priestess
of the natural order; her altar, the
family fireside. While her husband is
busy with the affairs of the world,
into her hands is committed the care
of an immortal soul, the most pre-
cious treasure ever fashioned by the
hand of God.
"The mortal training of her child
must begin at her own knee. She
must teach his tiny feet to walk in
the ways of virtue and in the counsels
! of God. To do this she must make
the home holy. The grace of the sac
rament of matrimony alone will en-
able the Christian mother to accom-.
plish this work. Insist on public Or
der, as you will, and persuade parents
of their natural duties, and after all
it is religion that sanctifies the home
And if mothers lose sight of the
Christian obligation, everything pure
| and holy is lost
women may not be called to great
! deeds in order that they may be
great. Joan of Arc and the Amazons
of history are exceptions. Many un-
known heroines, pure, sinless, uncom-
| planning, are working for the glory of
God in misery and poverty, and they
shall obtain their reward"
