nothing to do with attendance in Cath

Catholics can rightly make no selection

1t is a fact worthy of note that when
the true Catholic becomes wealthy he
is sure to hunt up some charity with
which he can divide. says the Buffalo

of instances may be found in proof of
this, the latest being that of Patrick

blessed with this worlds goods. He
has given eighty acres of land in King

Little Delaware" is having q hard
time of it in political way since it
left the Democratic column. Since
1895 there has been only one session
Of Congress in which it had two Sem
ators, and there have been two ses-
sions when it had no representatives
in the Senate and in the other sessions
1t has had but one representative. This
result is due to the overwhelming
force of political corruption in which
Addicks has been leading figure. The
other day Delaware elected a senator
and now it transpires that he is di-
rectly connected with the Gun Powder
trust which has been fattening itself
at the expense of the United States
government Cor years. Addicks, Alice
and Dupont are poor substitutes for
the distinguished men who represented
Delaware in the upper House of Con-
gress in Democratic days. Then Del
aware, although one of the smallest
states in the Union, had the most dis
tinguished representation. Such men
as Thomas +. Bayard. the Salisburys
and Judge Gray honored Delaware and
made it conspicuous among other
states Those We're days when money
was not the controlling force in sem
atorial elections.

would expect to find in a small town
with so many churches. wide preva-
lence of religious sentiment and high
standard of morals, but it is just the
contrary. A large portion of the pop
ulation, especially the male element,
does not belong to any of these organi-
cations and does not attend services
regularly. The low moral tone of the
town in question Is charged by the
writer to denominationalism which is
held directly responsible for the con-
tinuance of the condition. TOO weak
to exert any influence alone, and too
jealous to act together. the churches
do not command the respect Of the
community and are unable to stem the
tide of prevailing evil. Each minister
is too timid to oppose prevalent GUS
toms alone, dreading the reflex action
Of public sentiment on himself and
