What is the best way to go about
the conversion of our non Catholic
brethren in this country?" asks the
"Pittsburg Observer" which answers
the question saying: (Which is the
better method-to attack their religion,
showing up its errors. or to explain
our own? William c. Robinson, dean
Of the law faculty of the Catholic Uni
versity of America, in an article in the
Catholic World earnestly recommends
the expositorial plan as being much
more effective than the controversial
one. Present conditions are unfavor-
able for attack. he says. The older
beliefs are passing away. and nothing
is being invented or organized to take
their place. The result is that nom
Catholics are largely without a firm
hold upon religious truth. but the wish
to believe is still strong and willing to
listen to us when we tell them the
grounds Of our faith and explain to
them our doctrines and practices. Many
of them are often prejudiced, but pref
udice can best be overcome by ex-
PLANTATION. not by argument"

Governor johnson continues to give
evidence that he is good politician.
His statement that he is not candi-
date for the Democratic nomina tion
for the presidency and that Mr.. Bryan
will receive the nomination is both sen.
sible and polite. He has not been de-
ceived by the many pleasant things
that have been said about him. Ht
realizes that Mr. Bryan has such a hold
upon the Democratic party that no
man or set Of men could defeat him for
the nomination, and he realizes what
is still more true, that a nomination
without the active support Of Mr.. Bry-
an and his friends would mean utter
and Overwhelming defeat. Governor
Johnson. by the course he is pursuing,
is making himself a more available
candidate than he otherwise would be.
If for any reason Mr. Bryan should de.
eide not to make a third race, the
course pursued by Mnnesota's gov
ernor would surely bring favorable con-
sideration. The situation seems to be
that Mr.. Bryan can have the non1ina-
ton for the asking. vr even without
asking In case he decides not to take
the nomination Governor johnson Is
more likely to receive it than any other

A press dispatch from Omaha Of
recent date says: Count John A.
creighton's millions will not go to the
charitable and educational institutions,
as contemplated in his will, without a
contest, which promises to be. long
and bitter. The seven heirs not remem-
bered in the will are about to file
petition asking for a judicial construc-
ton Of the thirteenth clause, which
deals with the disposition Of the resi-
due Of the estate. 1t is contended that
If the count had known how large his
estate was growing he would have left
larger portions to his relatives. There
is also an ambiguity about the clause
in that the benenciaries are referred
to by the pronoun him and her, which,
it is contended, cannot apply to the in

sage to young lady Of rank to come
to him at once, as he had to tell her
something Of Importance. But the lady
refused to go. thinking that a day la

interest her. About an hour later, the
messenger returned and said to her:
u intreat you to come quickly. During
the late war your mother had a large
quantity Of gold and silver walled up
in your house. and the dying man, who
did the work. will tell you where to

this she lost no time in repairing to

Good for the president! And Hurrah

Oklahoma that the constitution was

people has force in it. and the president

the amelioration Of its people, political
religious. or economic, has been ac-
complished by the methods pursued by
the Nationalist Party.
The attitude of the Nationalist Party
and its leaders should not be nisun-
derstood. They do not oppose or con-
denim those who wish to work for Ire
land in another or different way from
that pursued by 1reland's parliamentary
representation. The Irish Party insists
only that there shall be in the House
of Commons compact, pledge bound
party, acting in unison on every ques-
ton affecting Ireland. The Irish Party
does not ask unquestioning submission
to the dictates Of any leader or leaders,
but permits and asks for the widest
discussion on national politics within
the ranks Of the party itself. 1t does
insist that differences be settled with
in the ranks Of the Irish party and not
aired in the House or Commons. II
insists only that those who stand for
election to Parliament from Irish con.
stituencies shall make the pledge to
act in accordance with the will Of the
majority of that party as determined
by its conferences and conventions and
to represent the sentiment of the Irish
people as a whole as determined oy
national conventions Of the people of
Ireland. Those unwilling to 50 act are
opposed at the polls by the Irish Ma
tionalist Party. The result of this pol.
icy is that there is in the House OF
Commons party with over eighty
members, acting together on all ques-
tons affecting Ireland.
1t is the discipline Of the party that
has given to it all the power that II
possesses. Those who oppose the party
have a right to nominate their candi-
dates and go before the people on cleo
ton day. Wherever they do this they
are defeated by the candidates Of the
Nationalist Party. This being the SEN
tinaent Of Ireland, the leaders Of the
party have a right to demand that
those who go before the people, pledged
to act with the party. continue to do so
or resign their seats Immediately
Nothing more has ever been demand
ed. Recent bye-elections prove con-
clusively that the people Of ireland
still support this policy. Until those
opposing the Irish Party. convince the
people Of Ireland that they have bet

en- to them by friends and supporters Of

Were Catholics really animated by
the subtle spirit ascribed to them by
certain writer's and preachers, they
would cease to take any interest in the
working Of the public school system,
but leave the issue to time and inevi-
table result, says the Catholic Stand
ard and Times. Loss Of faith must
naturally ensue when no faith is taught
either at school or at home. AS it is,
there are fifty millions of churchless
people here; If things remain as they
are. another half century must witness
the extinction Of the Christian religion
in all but the Catholic body. But were
they actuated by such a cold -blooded
spirit. they would, in turn, cease to be
Christians in all but name. No follower
Of the great Teacher can calmly behold
such destruction of the temples Of the
Holy Ghost.
According to the press dispatches
that was shameful scene in Cooper
Institute, New York, last Sunday, says
the Syracuse Catholic Sun. Several
hundred riotous Italians disgraced their
race by attempting to howl down every
speaker who dared to utter a protest
against the nti-clericalism now ram
pant in Italy. One of the rioters de-
clared-and probably he voiced the SEN
timents of thousands of his kind-that
If the Catholics Of this country under
took to make such protests against
Italian anti-clericalism, as last year
they did against that Of France, the
Italian anti clericals in this country
will see to it that American Catholic
Bishops and priests receive such treat
nnent as recently Cardinal Merry Del
Val received in Italy, viz: they will be
mobbed. Somebody should disabuse
the minds of those Black Handists, So
cialists and anarchists in time to save
their skulls. They dare not attempt
anything Of the kind in this country.
We have laws here and they must obey
them whether they like to do so or not.
If those laws should prove imperative
there are enough right thinking Amer

Republican politician in Albany. After

have missed good opportunity. They
made it impossible for the people of that
state to express themselves on the Re-

They held state convention and
promptly divided into two factions, one
of which nominated Mr. Whitney and
the other Mr.. Bartlett. When Republi-

There may be some among our read

say that the Judge is right. Indeed.
We might go a little further and say
that some: theaters should be closed

the number Of attendants at vespers
in Catholic churches on Sunday even

it would become no less.
