PREEATE OPPOSED CHANGE
Archbishop Publishes Official
Correspondence

LONDON Sept l3=Archbishop
Bourne has sent 10 the newspapers a
copy of the correspondence which pre-
ceded the change in the plans for the
Catholic procession, from which II ap-
pears that Premier AsQuith sent 10 the
archbishop on Thursday morning the
first intimation Of his wish that the
ceremony Of carrying the host through
the streets Of London should be aban-
oOned.
Archbishop Bourne in reply TO the
premier protested against changing the
plans at the last moment He pointed
out that q similar procession had taken
place IN many parts Of England with
oct hindrznce. and he would under no
circumstances agree TO an arrangement
that would place Catholics in the posi-
ton Of being tolerated under certain
conditions.
On Saturday Home Secretary Glad
stone wrote from Scotland TO Arch
bishop Bourne, supporting Premier As
quith's request bat admitting that he
should not think any reasonable person
could object TO such procession
From that on the negotiations were
continued through an offcial OF the
home secretarys Of7ce. and when the
matter was settled both Asquith and
Gladstone. whose communications were
couched in most courteous terms, ex-
pressed their personal thanks TO Arch
bishop Bourne, assuring him that every
precaution would be taken to protect
the procession from insult or annoy
ance
II is evident. however, that the Cath
olics consider that they had been badly
treated Father Sprankling. admins
tor Of st. Georges Catholic cathedral.
yesterday referred 10 Premier Asquith' S
action as one that would go down TO
posterity as an insult TO millions OF
Catholics.
Cardinal Tannutelli in an interview
after the procession said:
II has been an admirable affirmation
of faith and sympathy which will not
easily be forgotten by those who wit
messed il. The demonstrations Of SYM
psthy came spontaneously and were
well accepted by all nom Catholics who
by their oemeanOr protested against the
attempts. arrfcialIy conducted, to To-
mert hostility against our pacific re-
union II those who solicited and OBJ
fained the prohibition TO the carrying
OF the sacrament intend to inspire the
faithful with greater enthusiasm. they
can boast they succeeded even beyond
their expectations"
The London morning papers in their
editorials take the line in most cases of
careful avoidance OF anything calcu-
lated 10 fan the fame of religious con-
trovensy.
Several Of the papers frankly call for
the repeal Of the obsolete laws which
caused the trouble and strongly depre-
cate the fanatical attitude Of the Pro-
testant societies
The Daily Telegraph strongly de-
nnunces the weakness Of the govern
nnent and its irresolution and its sus-
tremists. 1t cOngratulates the Catholics
upon the calmness and dignity with
which they bore the exceedingly bitter

Wea;i with the Republican Press
that there is no more important OF.
tire II the county than Judge OF the
county coui %. The ST. Judges
have she management OF theccunty's

and one OF the chart 'tsristics OF ke

to get next to the public ~. From

son why the people of Ba county
don't want q +: publican coul.. Two
years ago the republicans succeeded,
through combination of political
circumstanco, in electing q kepuDli-
can Presiding Judge, one OF strong
partisan procliylties, who uniortu-
ma, ly holds two years longer. The
ele elton OF either Of the district judges
would give the Republicans the county

would uNe 1t to q partisan purpose.

stalled by exposure by The lines.
The evident purpose Of that report
was 30 patent that 1t reacted upon
the perpetrators. A full Republican
court would have been able to have
adopted that trump" financial statf.
ment to the injury Of the Democratic
party. We call attention to this at
th,s time to warn Democrats under
no circumstances to neglect their
nominees for county judges. Judges
Hyde and Paddock are both worthy
and competent men for the places.
They are entitled to the full party
