WARNING IS SOUNDED
Cardinal Logue Strikes at
Socialism, Anarchy and
Divorce.
THEY THREATEN NATION.

New York, May OH his praise of
Americas wonderful progress and
prosperity, Cardinal Logue, in an inter
view, sounded a note of warning
against anarchism, socialism, the di-
vorce evil and the lack of religious
principles as constituting the gravest
menace to the nation. Anarchism he
declared, should be eradicated wherev-
er existing, root and branch. A so
cialistic government, if its doctrines
were put in practice, would crumble
and fall within six months: the divorce
evil threatens the very foundation of
society. while the lack of religious
faith is inimical to the political and
moral health of any community.
Cardinal Logue spoke enthusiastic
ally Of his visit through the states and
Canada, and declared that Niagara
Falls was one of the most beautiful
scenic effects and impressively grand
that he had ever witnessed. His stay
in this country is growing to a close,
and on Saturday. June 8, he will leave
for his home in Ireland.

Gates are mainly demagogues. and'that
its teachings are dangerous. They
have mo idea that the present public

country has been in a condition of
temporary excitation, from which it

Burrows and Beveridge were the two
men most considered for the chair

the purpose and aspiration of the high

1t would be hard to find two men in
the party more accurately representa-

idealism, and animate with what has
well been called the public conscience.
Senator Burrows Is OF the class of men
who smile indulgently at the Bever-

who don't know what is meant by pub,
