 The latest instruction from Rome marks one more stage in the struggle between the church and the French government, which makes no secret of its design to hamper in every way possible the exercise of the Catholic religion on French soil At this mo- ment every episcopal residence, every parish house, every seminary, in Q word. every piece of church property throughout the length and breadth of France is legally at the disposal of the open and avowed enemies of the church. What these enemies propose doing was stated plainly by NJ. Buissen, in the course of speech de- livered from the tribunal in the French house of deputies. Here is how Buissen described the program that is in the process of being car. ried out; "A Goddess states, Goddess schools. Goddess municipal govern ment, legislation from which God shall be banished, and science and a morality in which He will have no place. The democracy is preparing to detach the nation, the family and the individual from the church."

By the wise and just provision of congress in enacting at its last ses- sion that 10 per cent of the gross re- ceipts from the National reserves shall be made over to the several states in which they are situated, for the benefit of the counties which would otherwise receive no revenue from a part of their area, real grievance was redressed. Even with the present use of the reserves the benefits thus reaped from them by tho communities in their neighborhood are of substantial importance of this provision will increase, and eventual ly the counties will find themselves far better off than they would nave been without the reserves. for 3ri- vate ownership followed by exploita- ton would have destroyed the sources of revenue by leaving little or nothing of permanent taxable val ue. whereas now every resource is conserved and will be made to pay its just share of income. Since the fundamental purpose for which re- ssrves eIist is to secure the best per manent use of all resources, their effect is to add to property value. and by turning over 10 per cent of their gross receipts to local use they will contribute fsr more to the local pub lie neefs than the taxes they would pay if they were private property.

= The course taken by the president
 in San Domingo has been censured
 already by the refusal of the senate
 to ratify any arrangement he has
 made with that republic, says a
 New York writer. His action in Cuba
 is quite as open to objection. It is
 true that the Platt amendment to the
 act established the independence of
 Cuba gives out country the right to interpose when the Cubans fall into anarchy. But that amendment vests no such power in the president, nor do the laws and the constitution of the American republic vest any such power in the national executive. It is true that such powers are exer- cised by European rulers as is the power to declare war and the power to make peace; both of which are from our president and vested in congress. Not even tine in- vitation from president Palma could warrant our national executive fin as- suming for the country the responsi- bility for Cuban ! affairs, until the vitation through their representatives gave him warrant for doing so. It is they who have to bear the cost of the and to take the risks of the complications which are sure to arise.

 the elemental securities. and with the elemental sympathy and horror of the race. The jury have been lost
 to view and to chronicle in the safe surroundings of their inviolable homes. But the members of that
 jury have commended themselves to the admiration and the gratitude of every home in all this land in which children are loved. God is feared.

INDIAN WHO IS A PRIEST.
A Pottawatomie Who Spoke in the
 Tongue of His Fathers in Rome.


 To be the first full blood Indian to become a Roman Catholic priest is the unusual distinction of the Rev Father Albert Negahnquet of Kan sas, now conducting religious labors among his fellow racemen in Okla homa and Indian Territory. So far as now known Father Negahnquet is the only living Roman Catholic priest who is full blood Indian.
 Father Negahnquet was born on the Pottawatomie reservation near St Mary's, this state, in 1877. Soon afterward he was brought to Topeka by his parents and in the Church of the Assumption here he was baptized. He was the youngest of family of ten children.
 His parents and members of the family removed to Pottawatomie county. Olka., where there are now many members of that tribe. In the southern part of that country the Catholics in an early day established great community, monastery, schools. and the like. The mission aries of that church naturally came and worked among the Indians near by. Father Negahnquet. as boy. was sent to the school. He was an interesting child. readily tractible. and he applied himself to his studies. Mother Katherine Drexel, daughter of the millionaire Drexel of Phila- delphia. on the occasion of one of her periodical visits. took notice of this particular little Indian boy. She never forgot him. and when he be- came old enough she sent him to the large Indian school at Carlisle, Pa. Later he was transferred to the Catholic college at Washington, D. C.. with the purpose in view of edu- eating him for the priesthood.
 He was the honor man at Wash ington, and from there he went to Rome. He studied philosophy and theology there In the Propaganda college. being one year in the College of the Pope. Before the departure from Rome of priests of this class tI lt tu5tOtn1Ft tbf tnth III hts hhoahtt tongue to give an address IL must have been strange when the young American Indian priest came for ward and in the tongue of his fathers the varlike Pottavatomies. spoke.
 Then Father NeEahnquet sailed away to Oklahoma Territory. and for a few weeks vas the guest of his ,,.ran.s in their rude home Soon sfterusrd he sang the first mass celebrated by a full blood Indian pries; on American soil. in the big Catholic church at Oklahoma City.
