named the North Dakota. and the senior Senator
from that state. who has always been a loyal sup
porter OF the Presidents policies. felt that the

THE CATHOLIC CENTENARY.

No American who was fortunate enough 10
find a place in St PatrickS Cathedral yester-
lav morning can have brought away the old
o1ltworn opinions about Catholicism and the
Catholics TO which he could hardly have failed
10 revert in memory as he gaZed upon the
scene Stripped of It's outward splendors, the
spectacle at the solemn pontiffcal high mass
marking the climax of the centenary celebration
presented a vivid picture of the intelligence.
numerical strength and vast influence of Catho-
lcism in the United States
SO far as material prosperity counts the
archdiocese has ample reason 10 rejoice on this,
the one hundredth anniversary of its founda-
ton From old ST. Peters. in Barclay street,
built in 1856. or twenty-five years before the
arrival Of bishop the Catholic Church in New
York City has grown TO a community of 31S
churches and 1S6 chapels frequented by nearly
one and one-Guarter million worshippers and
representing. with its affiliated charitable in

rant for iustifiable pride is found in the char
acter Of the men and women who owe it allie

Catholics. and notably those of this archdio-

the most progressive body of all that look

wide import afOrding. ii does. clear proof
that the vital strength of Catholicism lies deep
below the more or less accidental forms of

STATE RIGHTS N 1Elr YORK H4BR0R

STATE RIGHTS N NEW YORh H4RBOR.
The decision OF tie supreme Court of le
United States in the case Of the Central Rail
road of New Jersey against the corporation
and collector OF Jersey City i Of considerable
local interest 10 the municipality in question,
inasmuch a. it affirms its right to levy and col
lect taxes upon the land owned by the railroad
under the waters Of the North River and New
York Bay. The contention of the railroad had
been that under the compact or treaty of 1893
between the states Of New York ana New ,Jer-
sey for the settlement Of territorial limits and
jurisdiction between them. the State of New
York had exclusive jurisdiction Of and over
ali the waters Of the Bay of New York and
of and over all the waters Of Hudson River
lying west Of Manhattan Island and 10 the
south Of the mouth Of Spuyten Duyyil Creek.
and Of and over the lands covered 10y the said
waters 10 loyy water mark the westerly .r
New Jersey side thereof" and that therefore
the submerged lands ia question were within
the jurisdiction Of New York and were not
subject 10 taxation 10y the State Of New Jersey
or by any municipality thereof. The New Jer-
sey Supreme Court and Court Of Errors and
Appeals held Otherwise. declaring that ''juris
diction' did not mean Soyerei=nty. and that the
jurisdiction provided ia the compact of 1882
was extra-territorjaI and limited 10 certain
bounds which did not include taxation. With
TINS view the supreme tDlTt AT Washington
now agrees. on tho ground that while -jurisdic-
ton is vested in New York. apparently for the
purposes Of quarantine and immigrant control
only. the compact expressly provides that tine
State of New Jersey shall have the exclusive
right Of property ia ami 10 the land under
the water lying west Of the middle Of the Bay
of New York and west Of the middle Of that
.-part Of tllc Hudson River which lies between
Manhattan island and New Jersey" That

ond longest tunnel in this section of
Colorado. having attained that distinc
ton with the round of holes blasted on
New Years day, at which time
it passed the heading of the Cen

Five. On January |, the Central tun-
mel was 6, ,l73 feet in length, or one foot
longer than the McClellard tunnel.
tral tunnel was driven 80 feet and the
McClelIaud tunnel 203 feet so that on
February |, 1908 the breast of the
McClelland tunnel is just l22 feet
Central tunnel.
The McClelland tunnel has been
driven a total of ,27l feet since the
latter part Of last May, while the Cen
tral tunnel has been driven but 900 feet
during that time. In this connection
it is interesting to note that the Cen
tral tunnelis being driven by an army
of 1000 stockholders, and the com
pany recently issued bonds to com
plete tie work, while the McCleiland
tunnel represents the efforts of one
man, Geo. E. McCleIland of this city,
who by MS untIr.ng energy and per
