When they came home Sunday night
they aroused the family, who heard part
of the trouble, Minnie Elgin went down
and saw the young men were fighting and
tried 10 persuade Miles to come in. As
Miles was talking with Miss Elgin, she

At Youghal, in the south Of Ireland.
there was, a few days ago. a public
ceremony that awakened some dor
mant recollections. says the Catholic
Standard and Times of Philadelphia.
1t was the unwilling of monument
to priest who had been flogged
through the streets by one of those
ruffian magistrates like "Flogging
Fitzgerald" who did not scruple to
mingle the judicial office with that of
the hangman and public fagellator.
Father O'Neill-for this was his name
was one Of the popular heroes Of 49,
He was first publicly flogged through
the streets of Youghal and then was
exiled. his offense being his refusal to
disclose secrets regarding the insur-
gents that were revealed to him in the
confessional. A nephew OF the vene-
rated priest, Peter ONeill Crowley,
was killed in 1867 while leading a
Fenian band. The Nationalist party
was represented at the unwilling by
Sir Thomas Esmonde and Captain
Anthony j. Donelan. Canon Peter
O'Leary. the well-known Gaelic au-
thor. delivered an address. and Mgr.
Keller. who suffered Imprisonment in
1887 for his Land League affiliations,
also spoke.

Women Who Fail az Mothers.

In the present day there is an ever-
increasing tendency to minimize the
Importance and dignity Of motherhood,
The modern woman does not find her
ideals conferred in the nursery. neither
does she trouble as to who shall guide
and guard the tiny lives that should
by divine right be her own special
charge. So hireling hands are dep-
uted to supplant the mother love and
care and mother herself becomes q
mere name to the nursery inmates.
And yet, where the woman who all
lows other hands than her own to full
fill her most sacred responsibilities.
she would indignantly deny the asper-
sion, and consider herself harsllly mis-
judged. But because a woman does
not beat her children, allow them to
be neglected Or underfed, it does not
follow that she is a good mother. A
good mother is she to whom her chill.
dren are her first consideration-she
whom no pleasure tempts into neglect
Of the wee folks claims--she who real.

"A mother is mother still,
The hottest thing alive"
And in living up to the high pres.
tige Of her God-given position that
woman finds her happiness perfected
in domestic love.

can give a valid and sufficient reason
for not voting for him this year. 1t is
a certainty that there are many who
voted against him two years ago who
will this year vote for him. The COM
ing election, however. will be a better
test Of the real independence Of the
voters OF this state than was the cleo
ton two years ago. Many votes at
that time were Influenced by preju-
diced politicians and prejudiced
press. A bitter factional fight within
the Republican party no doubt caused
his election then. If the Governor is
to succeed this year 1t must be upon
the strength Of the excellent admins
tration that he has given the state. We
believe that he can and will succeed.

DEMOCRATIC PROSPECTS.

Ex-Mayor J. C. Haynes has been re-
nominated by the Democrats by de-
cisive vote. Mr.. Haynes conducted no
campaign. He took the sensible view
that the people knew him and that If
they wanted him they would re-nom-
mate him. He refused to enter into
any scramble for the Democratic NOM
ination. His opponent carried on an
active campaign and yet made a very
poor showing against the ex-mayor.
Ex-Mayor Haynes may we'll be proud
Of the endorsement that he received
at the hands of his party. Although
he was abused from the stump by
Democratic speakers who were work.
ing for his opponent while he himself
was conducting no campaign at all.
he maintained dignified silence,
trusting the good sense and Judgment
Of the people.
His prospects Of election are indeed
bright. He will receive practically the
eHIHc euppOTI VI Tie beIiiOCIdtlC par.
ty, and. If the recent Republican pri-
mary is any indication of what to ex-
pect. he will receive about half the
Republican vote. He has always been
close observer Of political affairs. He
believes in giving the people what they
want under the law. There is without
question strong feeling in this COM
munity against the Sunday saloon.
There should be no attempt to make
this a wide open city. Municipal gov
eminent is a constant struggle to OBJ
tain the best possible out Of the many
contending forces that exist in every
large city Large cities can not be
governed on theory. The best mayors
Of large cities are those who realize
that perfection is not attainable and
exert all the power at their command
to protect life and property and to
maintain order and public decency.
Mayor Haynes understands what the
people of this city want. He knows
what can be done and what can not be
done. We know that he is a high
minded. public-spirited citizen and
that if he is reelected mayor he will
give the city the very best administra-
ton that can be given 1t.

1t has often been suggested that our
priests should become members of the
labor organizations and participate in
their gatherings so that they might
offset the socialistic mouthings Of the
blatherskite demagogues who too often
misrepresent honest minded and con-
servative workingmen who are not
skilled enough in debate to talk to the
point and put themselves right before
the public, says the irish American.
An excellent example In this direction
comes from Germany where Cardinal
Fischer. Of Cologne, and his assistant,
the Most. Rev. DR.. Muller, went from
NESTING to meeting on Labor Sunday"
at Essen. and delivered addresses in
seven or eight halls. The exact num-
'bsr Of workers in the Catholic Labor
procession was $4,000.

The question Of municipal owner

not as large as it should have been.

thousands of votes cast in favor of

can be reckoned as so many who al
ways think they could run your BUSH
ness better than you yourself can,
and better than they are running their
own, for that matter. They embrace
about all the theorists and expert
mentors in the city and who voted so
on the assumption that they could not
make our public credit worse. The
effect Is about the same as taking an
overdose Of poison--it defeats it's own
end. Inability to float bonds will for
long time prevent municipal owner

Then, again, 1t is not easy to con-
vince the public that street car sys-
tenn can be run by municipality at
the same profit as it can be by a cor
poration. In a corporation man
either tries to earn his salary or he
loses his job, while in q city manage
ment man holds his Job If he has
the pull whether he does his work or
not. The insolence of ONCE has been
characterized by ancient and modern
writer's till the average man recog-
nizes the truth of the imputation. In
civility is almost unknown in a BUSH
ness office and to avoid grievances of
an irremedial character the fewer mat
tiers entrusted to public officials the

The death Of David Richard Pigot,
who was for many years Master Of
the Queens Bench Division, position
to which he was promoted from a
county court judgeship. removes link
with the period Of Daniel O'Connell,
says the Quebec Saturday Budget.
Deceased, who was a son Of Lord Chief
Baron Pigot, O'Connell's closest friend,
who, indeed, like Sir Michael O'Logh-
lin, the master Of the rolls, owed hix
promotion to O'Connell's influence
was from his very earliest years on
terms Of as great intimacy with o'Con-
nell as a member Of a younger genera
ton can be with one Of an older gen.
Grafton. Lord Justice F1tz- Gibbon has
often stated that he is one Of the few
persons now living who have heard and
can recollect the tones Of O'Connells
voice-his father. the late Master Fitz-
Gibbon, who was leading counsel for
the defense in the State Trials Of 1914,
having brought the future Lord Jus
tice, then a little boy Of seven years
old, into court to hear O'Connell speak
in his own defense. Master Pigot,
however, had risen to mans estate,
and had been called to the bar in the
lifetime Of o'Connell, who was a con-
slant visitor at his fathers house.
O'Connell's correspondence literally
abounds with expressions Of deep at
lection and high appreciation Of the
Lord Chief Baron. The passing away
Of the deceased recalls the fact that
the judge outlived his brother John by
thirty-fve years. John Edward Pisot
was one Of the most distinguished Of
the Young 1relanders, and was called
to the Irish bar in 1S45. He is was

at least they show that the Scientists
are alive. Now, why do not we Cath
olics show similar courage in de-
Tending our religion? The Catholic
position is assailed a hundred times
oftener than is that Of the Christian
Scientists. Why can we not write
out dignifled yet firm corrections of
misstatements, carry them to the Sec

ton? If the great daily misrepre-
sents us it ought to be willing to cor

"The Domineerins Girl"

AS Washington paper describes
this all too familiar type or Miss
Smarty," the domineering girl is al
ways talking in an imperative tone.
regardless Of the conversation Of 9TH
ers. Her favorite position is in the
center of the room, where nothing
which might need her supervision will
escape her notice. She usually illus
Ing gestures and a toss Of the head.
meant to imply that her executive
ability is not to be questioned. She
overrules everyones suggestions and
supplants them with her own brilliant
ly conceived ideas. She is not popu-
lar, but she is In evidence everywhere
by her own persistence-is the domi-
neering girl.
In the family circle she monopolizes
the conversation at the table. and
never waits for her mother to direct
the maid. She tells her small brother
what he must and must not do, and
demands obedience Of her younger sis.
ter. She runs her mothers social at
fairs, and is continually adjusting the
domestic arrangements to suit her
fancy, thereby meriting the dislike Of
the servants.
The domineering girl always wants
to be chairman Of every committee in
her class at school, and her one sor-
row is that she cannot be president Of
the athletic association and captain of
the football eleven. She could run
them to much better advantage than
the acting heads.
The domineering girl seldom asks q
question, and she never seeks advice.
1t is seldom that she can find a chum.
No girl likes to be continually with q.
person who demands that she lose
her identity and walk along path
laid down for her, whether she will
or not. And there is no other alterna-
tive for the girl who chums with the
domineering girl; she will operate their
partnership and will brook no inter-
ference. She is not happy unless
someone is doing her bidding. She
simply has to be first and foremost In
everything. and she feels herself il
doing 1t or experimenting it.
The advice Of the domineering girl
is to remember that the other people
have ideas Of their own and that theil
suggestions may be as good as or bet-
ter than her own. She should not for-
get that the sound of her voice and
the continual commands she is putting
forth become tiresome. If she wants
to be popular, a girl must not be DOM
ineering; let others have some say-so
in the game.
