CARDINAL MORAN.

Australian Prelate Exerts Powerful In
fluenee In Southern Hemisphere.
A member of the Australian Parlia-
ment, J. Meagher of Sydney, has been
in London on a visit, and he says:
Il suppose we may claim to have
in Australia the most illustrious of
living Irishmen, Cardinal Moran, a
churchnan, historian, and patriot
His influence in the Southern Hemis-
phere is Unreasonable. 1t is felt in
historian will bear me out that only
for the cardinal the Australian states
would not be federated to-day.
when federation was purely a de-
batting society question, conference
Was held in Bathurst. The cardinal
attended, and he delivered speech
which thrilled the whole continent.
From that hour the federal movement
began in real earnest. and the cardinal
was the center figure. Sir Henry
Parges, who an enemy of Catholics,
u
nlent the greatness of his eminence's
services. and the late federal prime
minister Sir Edmund Barton, declared
that history would award the honors
of the achievement to the great pre-
late.
The cardinal is not only a leader,
in religious, but in secular matters.
His people look to him for guidance
on all questions. The minister of
works has often acknowledged, that.
next to the state, the cardinal is the
greatest builder and the largest en-
ployer of labor in Australia. The COM
missioners of education recently said
that his cminence is one of the few
men in Australia who have a correct
grasp Of the educational requirements
of the people. He gives lead to the
state authorities, and at the last ST.
Patrick's day celebration he achieved
a great triumph by a schools in
dustrial exhibition of huge dimensions
and workmanship i'm the arts and
crafts.
The cardinal realized that the lact
of the Irish people not having an OPP
portunity to learn trades in the past
| was one of their great drawbacks, and
that we live in the age of skilled labor
So he has brought technical education
| into the schools. Cultivation of irish
patriotism in the schools is another
of the aims of the cardinals life, and
in all the Irish celebrations the chill
dren are given the place of honor. At
| the st. Patrick's day celebration in
Sydney this year he had over six
| thousand children formed into a living
| shamrock on the grounds, each way
| ing a green flag and singing national
| songs.
HE has organized Il Home Rule
| tribute, proposing that by q sys-
| tematic collection the Irish party
| should be subsidized to the extent of
100000 year, and OF that he guar
antees $4,000.
"The cardinal is now in his seventy
| sixth year, but he is as vigorous and
straight as man of forty"

LABOR in POLITICS.

The Executive Committee of the
American Federation of Labor has en-
tered politics and made it's declaration
of policy. 1t says that congressman
the almighty dollar have been indiffer-
ent to the rights of man." They have
refused to adopt or enforce legislation
in the interest of the toiling millions
and have turned I, deaf ear to the
voices of the masses. 1t then sets forth
what it conceives to be the just rights
of man. The program includes the
eight hour day. prohibition of the in
junction in labor disputes. the abolition
of the ELECTORAL college the direct
nomination and election of the presi-
dent. vice president, senators and
ferior courts. There is also Il demand
for the ownership and operation of all
public utilities by the municipalities,
the states or the nation, and for the
establishment of municipal Elephants
and slaughter-houseS.
The Federation of Labor's policy is II
queer mixture of democracy and COM
munonism. 1t contemplates Il making
over of the Constitution Of the United
States. It's policy could not be carried
out without rewriting the document
which for more than q century has
served so we'll as the fundamental law
of the country. 1t is Il strange specta-
Gle to find people who profess to be-
lieve in the rights of men advocating
policies which if enacted into law
would destroy individualism and set up
communionism in it's place. In the
past those who have fought for the
rights of men have dwelt upon the i'm
pOrtance of the individual as the unit
in society. The Federation of Labor
in criticisng officials who it declares,
have lost sight of the rights of men
in the fight for the almighty dollar.
proposes as a remedy such paternalism
as the government ownership of COM
retitive businesses. 1t would be hard
to conceive Il way in which the rights
of men could be more thoroughly de-
stroyed than by taking away from him
in legitimate business. And yet this is
just what the Federation of Labor asks
to have done when it advocates gov
eminent owners nip. Few things could
contribute more to the Capitalization
and absolutism of government than by
making the government the owner and
manager of business that is private
in it's character. The Federation of
Labor will question candidates for con-
gresS and the state legislatures as t"
whether or no they are friendly to the
Federation'S policy. Many weak kneed
candidates who desire office will SUBJ
scribe to the platform, but it will he
IL good while before the Federation of
Labor or any other organiZat ton can
bring about such Il complete change
in the theory and practice of our gov
eminent as that proposed by the Fed
eration'S platform. 1t will be found
that there are toiling millions in this
country who owe no allegiance to the
Federation that have a far different
conception of what the rights of man
are.
Labor, as represented by the Fedora
ton, in it's attempt To oppose ccntral-
ization of power. proposes Il scheme
that would centralze all power and
business in the government. II is not

manner in which the United States
Appraisers building was saved

April Is, 10 and 20. He begins his re-
port by saying that the earthquake
did no damage whatever to the build
Ing, but the fire menaeed 1t for three
days. The report then goes on to say:
ION the 18th the building was saved
from fire by heroic work on the south
end with the aid of a detachment from
the revenue cutter Bear, the United
states soldiers on duty at the build
ing, customs employees stationed on the
roof and at each window on the south
end with wet cloths and improyised
mops for fighting the fire as soon as
ignition occurred on the window cas-
ings or any other exposed woodwork.
Special credit should be given to Cor
nelius Toohey, examiner of teas, who
directed the work from the roof, and
0. X. Cloudman. messenger In uni
form. who looked after the windows on
the inside Of the building.
Tn the middle OF the day the fire
was within block Of the north end of
the Appraisers building. and it was
then decided to pull down a row Of
one-story shacks just across Jackson
street to lessen the heat of the fire
when 1t reached there. When these
buildings had been pulled down and a
strong south wind being favorable
you consented to the firing Of these
shacks. This was done after station
