Ireland and the Reactionaries.

There is no necessary connection be-
tween the failure to make Archbishop
ireland cardinal and the turn of af-
fairs in France, but they run on paral-
lei lines in the history Of the Roman
Catholic church. The same influences
which have delayed Ireland's appoint
ment are those which dictated the elec-
tion Of Cardinal Sarto to the chair of
st. Peter. In other words, the reac-
tionary party is in command Of the
church and was from the time the pro-
test. of Austria prevented the selec-
,tion Of Cardinal Rampolla to succeed
Leo XIII. .~ -- ~..., ..
Rampolla headed the progressive.
modern party in the church which fol-
lowed the policy Of Leo, who had sue
cessfully STAYED off the French crisis.
His advice was to make concessions
and keep the peace with France, the
greatest European country which is
avowedly Catholic. The break did not
come until after Leo had passed away
and the question Of his successor arose.
Then the reactionaries gathered their
forces for a struggle: and they have
succeeded in forcing the new pope, who
is comparatively unused to diplomacy,
into position of extreme difficulty.
Archbishop ireland was. during all
this time, conspicuously talked of for
the cardinalate. But Archbishop Ire
land came from a country where the
church and the state were separated.
Not only were they separated, but it
appeared that each was prospering in
its own field. The church in America
was growing marvelouslv and the free
schools of America were far from
paganizing the country. To elevate
such man to the college of cardinals
would be too strong an argument
against their own theories. The church
and state advocates could not do it
nor see it done. They managed to pre-
vent Leo from doing what he was in
clined to do in this matter, tho they
did not succeed in changing his pol
icy of conciliation toward, republican
governments. - - -
The reactionaries have full swing
If they do not succeed in managing
matters in France to the glory Of thu
church, there may come another reac
tion in which men like Archbishop Ire
land will have more Of voice, in, af
fairs. ~ .ei.

I.REL LAND'S HOPES

Former Editor Of Catholic. Herald
Says Ambassadors Interven-

New York, Dec. 17,-Aside from
Mr. and Mrs. Bellamy Storer, Presi-
dent Roosevelt and the victim of their
quarrel, Archbishop ireland, probably
no person in America has been in a
position to know more of the inside his
tory OF the controversy over the red
hat than DR.. Michael Walsh, formerly
editor Of the Catholic Herald.
!, DIR. Walsh says that at best, Mrs.
Storer's Intervention was ill-advised.
He admits that he had much correspon-
dence, with Rome relative to the be-
stowal of a red hat on another .Ameri-
can prelate, and that, while editor of
the Catholic Herald, Mgr. Rampolla
cardinal secretary Of state under Pope
Leo Kill, informed him that the Vat
lean i was favorable to Archbishop Ire.
Leo ived,'' said Dr.. Walsh, "Arch-
bishop Ireland would have been a car
dinal long before now.'' -.
There Were Others. :
The public seems to have gained the
impression, in DR.. Walsh s opinion. that
the .Storers were the only persons pro.
noting the interests Of the archbishop
OF st. Paul. He explained that this was
9 mistake; that not only was President
Mckinley openly committed to the sup
port Of the archbishop, so far as he
could be in his official capacity, but
prac tically every republican politician
admired Mgr. Ireland and desired tc
see him rewarded. Especially was this
true of Mark Hanna. &
DR.. Walsh said he could see no other
result of the Storer affair than the de-
struction of Mgr. Ireland's chances
ever to wear the red hat. He believed
the honor will go to the archbishop OF
New Orleans. - [,'"
"The ambition of Mrs. Storer to di
rect the affairs of the Catholic church
is not unlike that of other converts tc
the faith,'' said DR.. Walsh, "and- the
results often have been harmful to the
church and Woefnlly disappointing tt
the proselyte.''
