Catholic, a Lutheran, a Unitarian or
what not. We believe in the separa-
tion Of Church and state, full religious
liberty, freedom of conscience, of
speech. and of the press. not only in
the United States but in every country
en- Gods footstool. st comes with poor
srace from the Lutheran ministers to
cast aspersions on Catholics here or ii,
Europe. for there is not today coun-
try where Lutheransm prevails that
there is not to be found a union of
church and state, with the ruler as
lead of the church. There is no rec
ord of Lutheran ministers crying out
or protesting against union of church
and state in any European nation
where Lutheranism is in the ascend
ant. They and their church followers
have the fat of the land, while honest
and loyal members of dissenting
churches are Disseminated against in
the land Of their birth.
1t is a well-known historical fact,
which cannot be gainsaid, that the
founder of Lutheranism was destitute
Of democratic principles, and catered
to royalty and aristocracy. He flat
tered princes and pandered to their
vices. The German Protestant histor-
ian, Frederick Won Schlegel, candidly
says that Luther was by no means an
advocate OF democracy, but he asserted
the absolute power of princes. It was
by such conduct and the influence
which he thereby acquired, as we'll as
by the sanction Of the civil power, that
the Reformation was promoted and
consolidated. Luther was not the ad-
vocate of popular liberty" No one
will deny that he gave permission to
Phillip, the landgrave of Hesse. to have
two wives at once. Guizot, the Pro-
testant French historian, corroborates
Won Schlegel. and says that "the Re.
formation and absolute monarchy tri !.
unphed simultaneously throughout
Europe
The Irish Standard will not draw in
vidious comparisons between Catholic
and Protestant countries as regards re-
ligious liberty and toleration. Suffice
IL to say that Austria compares favor
ably with Germany, and Italy and
Spain with Sweden and Denmark. We
have no apology to make for bigotry
If it exists in Catholic countries, but
the Lutherans should not cast the first
stone either in the United States or in
Europe. Despite the un-American ut
terances of the Lutheran clergy of New
York, we would cheerfully vote for a
Lutheran for President, provided ,e
was not notorious bigot and advocat-
ed the political principles of the party
to which we belong.

Nov. 4, 1856. Fillmore received S74,534
cut of total popular vote of 4,053, ,ss7.
and received s votes out of 296 in the
electoral college. For the Senate Of
the United States five Americans were
elected. and for the House of Repre-
sentatives fourteen Americans.
1t was during this period that relig-
lous questions were discussed in both
houses of Congress. There were two
Catholic Democrats in the lower house
at the time, one of them being John
Kelly. of New York. They were kept
busy in explaining Catholic doctrine as
bearing on their loyalty to American
institutions, and everything that could

testant authorities was used by their
antagonists. Catholicity and the Slav-
cry question occupied the attention OF
Congress in those days to the exclusion
of other matters until the breaking out
of the Civil War. when Knownothing-
ism fell to pieces. never again to lift
its hated head, until Apaism appeared
as its offspring in the COS, to die in the
atmosphere of American liberty after Il
brief and inglorious existence.
The Civil War sounded the death
knell of bigotry in, this republic.
Among the foremost to spring to arms
for the preservation of the Union and
the suppression of the Rebellion were
the Catholics and citizens of foreign
birth, who proved their loyalty and de-
votion to the land of their birth and
adoption. The:2 fought and hled side
by side with the American born sol.
diers Of every religion and state and
many of them rose to distinction by
their gallantry and patriotism. 1t is
impossible to rcsurrect Knownothing-
ism in this country now or hereafter.
The days of bigotry are gone and only

Bishop McGolrick's parish. He serv-
ed as an altar boy, taught catechism
and made himself so useful around the
church that he soon attracted the at
tention of Father McGolrick. who OBJ
served that he had vocation for the
priesthood. In 1876. or thereabouts
Father McGolrick accompanied him 10
F1ance and placed him in the same
seminary where Archbishop Ireland
was educated for the priesthood. There
he remained about four years. his pa
rents paying for his tuition, when he
came home and went to Montreal to
finish his education. In due time ho
was ordained and returned to Mime
apolis, where he remained until he
went to Duluth with Bishop McGo!"
rick in the fall of 1882 The success Of
Bishop McGolrick in the new diocese
to which he was appointed nineteen
years ago, may be truly said to De
largely due to the great zeal and en-
ergy of the boy whom he selected for
the priesthood in Minneapolis. Father
Corbett, in his capacity as chancellor
of the diocese, has displayed ability of
Il high order. He is prudent and sa-
gacious and is an untiring worker in
the cause of religion. When other
priests were off on a vacation enjoying
a well-earned rest, Father Corbett was
al home in Duluth looking after the
affairs of the church in a diocese
spreading over 100000 square miles. He
has never had vacation since his or
dination, nor is he likely to have any
if he is not forced to take it in spite
OF himself.
The people Of Duluth appreciate the
labors of this worthy priest. They
know what he has accomplished bet.
ter than outsiders, and they do not
hesitate to give him credit. Father
Corbett is of a modest nature and does
not like to see his name in the papers:
but the diocese of Duluth, for which
he has done so much. cannot be writ
ten up without mentioning his name.

Editor Irish Standard. City:
Dear sir---In the last issue of your
paper l read with pleasure of Ireland's
prosperity (?) as depicted by that
mountebank, w. E. Curtis. This fact
obviates the necessity of further effort
on the part of Irish h-Americans in her
behalf. According to your esteemed
correspondent. the area Of Ireland un-
der cultivation has been reduced one
half in the twenty years, 1s75-1S95.
Other signs of prosperity he forgot, or
omitted to mention, are as follows: In
crease in taxation, s5OO,O0o in the last
two years; loss in population through
emigration. 100000; deaths from con-
sumption brought on by starvation,
10000: increase in poorhouse inmates
10000; victims of insanity brought
about by want of proper nourishment
10000 more: increase in police force,
7s1 men, and crime decreasing propor-
tionately. All this shows Ireland to be
unreasonable in demanding anything
more than the pen of Curtis and John
Redmond's mouth to make her truly
prosperous. Respectfully yours.

I wonder if all the men and women
Of Irish descent or birth in the North
west are aware of the excellence OF
your paper. l am afraid not, for il
they did it would have subscription
list as large as that of a certain Swed-
ish- American newspaper now being
litigated for in our courts. Are the
Celts less appreciative than the
Swedes? They are not. but they are
certainly more careless. I have a cou-
pie Of Irish ancestors, one of whom had
his head taken off by Ireton at LINER
lex. How proud 1 am of his glorious
memory words cannot tell I read your
paper as regularly as the weeks come
around. but only partially for its
friendship for Ireland and the Irish
hut fully as much for it's superior lit
erary quality and vast and good selec
ton of interesting anecdotes and
stories. Your issue Of November 18th
last is the one which causes me to
write the above. and it Is only one OF
many. Your paper is just right in plan
and execution and the fault that it has
not circulation which reaches to
every lover Of literature and justice to
Ireland is not in it but in the Celtic
population. They should remember the
future is made sure by study of the
rast. That 1rishmen of today are made
better by study of the vast army OF
Irishmen who have blessed the human
race. but are gone on before.
The Irish Standard is certainly ap-
preciated by its large corps Of readers,
but where it is read by ten it should be

shoulders to the wheel and have an
Irish editor ride in an automobile, II
he wants to. as well as a Swede.
