What Roosevelt Says.

.,Taft will make our greatest Presi'
dent with the exception Of Washing
ton and Lincoln" is the statement
credited to President Roosevelt in an
interview which is the leading article
Of Success Magazine for October.
In the course Of the interview the
president is quoted as follows;
1.-THE bigness Of the job demands a
man OF Tait's type. He is thoroughly
prepared for the task which will con-
front him. Never has there been q
candidate for the presidency so adj
mirably trained in varied administers
tive service. Then, Taft is q thor
oughly national man. There no
stronger appeal to him from the north
than from the south, from the west
than from the east. Greed and color
make no difference to him. He seeks
to do substantial Justice to all. There
Isn't a mean streak In the mans
makeup.
II sincerely believe that Taft will
make our greatest president, except
ing, Of course, our two greatest,
Washington and Lincoln"

IN. CaIderhead,a strsnkth.

The Manhattan Republic, one Of
the leading squsre deal papers Of the
district, has this sensible editorial on
the congressional situation;
"Our best Judgment Is that the
Democratic meeting Wednesday eve
ming at which Mr. Levitt, candidate
for congress. spoke, did not injure
Mr.. Calderhead nor make Mr.. Levitt .
vote. Mr.. Levitt used the same argu-
ments that were urged against Mr..
Calderhead's denomination only be did
not pretend to know any Of the facts
in the case, and 1t was evident from
his comment that in most instances
he did not. He does not have a COM
prehensive grasp Of the matters about
which he attempts to talk and In a
Joint discussion his ignorance would
become painfully apparent and he
would only be able to founder around
like fish out Of water. The Demo-
Gratis have men in the district who are
posted on governmental matters, but
Mr.. Levitt is not.
"He found fault with MIR. Calder
head for his position against the cleo
ton of United States senator's, physi-
cal valuation Of railroads, bank guar
anty law, tariff revision, the primary
law, and some other matters. But he
oyerlooks the fact that the Republican
platform declares for each Of these In
Kansas and Mr.. Calderhead states
that he will stand upon the state plat
form. Mr.. Levitt remembers thai

his own past record states that a can
didate is bound by not only the
declaration, but the omissions Of the
party platform, and as an ardent
worshipper Of Mr. Bryan, he cannot
consistently criticize Mr.. Calderhead
for past mistakes.
1.-The Republicans Of Kansas
threshed out all these matters In a
family quarrel. Mr.. Levitt put in
much time reading from the argu-
ments used by Republican papers in
that campaign. As result they de-
cided that Mr.. Calderhead's personal
qualifications were such that he
should be sent back to congress but
with instructions how to act in GER
tain cases. Should Mr.. Calderhead
refuse to abide by his instructions, 1t
would be different matter, but II Is
understood that he will. The stuff
that Mr.. Levitt reads therefore be.

"If Mr.. Levitt can show that Mr..
Calderhead is not in harmony with the
Republican platform, and that he :
Levitt, comes nearer representing the
the wishes Of the Republicans Of Kan.
sas, then it will be time enough for
Republicans to consider voting for
Levitt. But until that is completely
established, Republicans will prefer
to vote for man who will vote for
Taft, the best equipped man ever
nominated for president, than to vote
for man who is doing all he can to-
vote for man who is doing all he
can to secure the election Of Bryan"

A Pertinent Question,

An Eastern Catholic exchange sensi-
bly, asks: why do we have so many
little parish booklets and ostensible
church calendars, that in too many
cases pose as papers and permit solicit
tation of subscriptions thereto not alone
within the boundaries of the parish, but
among the people generally within adj
jacent territory, too often to the det-
riment and embarrassment of the rec
ognized diocesan weekly. Too often.
also, advertising is solicited at prices
that border dangerously on graft and
out of all proportion to the results pos
sible to be assured.
Would 1t not be better and wiser for
our literary clergy, whose cacoethes
scribendi finds vent in the diffusive
and dubious pamphlet form, to Loyalty
and constantly contribute to the
columns of their diocesan journals the
excellent and timely fruits of their edi-
In union there is strength. In a
of parish squibs there is
fostered and maintained an insulated
which does not make for
broader and progressive Catholic jour

Good old.EashIoned Religion.

1t is interesting TO read in the Dublin
Leader how the good Catholics of the
famous fishing village of Cladagh, Gal
way, Ireland, inaugurate every year the
period of their traditional industry.
The fishing seasons open about the
18th of August, and on that day, if it
happens to be fine, all the fishing boats
in the trimmest condition and fully
manned, form in a long line. One of the
friars from the neighboring Dominican
Convent enters the leading boat. and in
professional order they all sail out to
the lighthouse. where thesails are low
cred. The reverend father then recites
the Rosary, and the responses are Civ
en- by over hundred fishermen, while
the boats are swayed from size to side
by the waves. When the prayers are
finished holy water is sprinkled on the
sea and the boats return home in the
same order.
The ceremony, which has been con-
tinued from time immemorial, they new
er fail to carry out, and if by any
chance the 18th of August is too rough
for the boats to go out, the ceremony
is deferred until the following Sunday.
The Dominican Fathers assist in their
turn, and when good year follows the
fishermen do not forget the father Who
officiated at the ceremony of the open
ing.

Discouraged? Let the word and the

Manhood is made for better things The
disheartening trials of today may be

Mission Bells of Monterey.

o bells that ring, o bells that sang
Above the martyrs wilderness,
Till from that REDEEMED coast line
sprang
The Gospel seed to cheer and bless,
What are your garnered sheaves to-
day?
o Mission bells; Eleison bells.
Q Mission bells of Monterey,
o bells that crash. o bells that clash
Above the chimney crowded plain,
On wall and tower your voices dash,
But never with the old refrain;
In mart and temple gone astray
Ye bangle bells! Ye jangle bells.
Ye wrangle bells of Monterey!
o bells that die, so far. so nigh,
Come back once more across the sea i;
Not with zealot's furious cry,
Not with the creed's austerity:
Come with his love alone to stay,
o Mission bells; Eleison belts!
o Mission bells of Monterey!

These choicest gifts of Natures han

O may their fragrance, as prayer,
Ascend to heaven for me,
That. when the battle here is won,
Ny soul may rest in Thee.
How faithfully the altar lamp
Its homage pays to Thee!
A symbol of the soul endowed
With love and constancy.
O make my heart a lamp of love
Forever burning bright;
And be Thy grace the holy oil
To feed 1t, day and night.
These tapers tall of burning wax
Consume themselves away,
Thee with tongues of flame;
They never cease to pray,
So let my soul forever burn
With ardent faith and love,
Until. it's terms of exile reached,
