THE GENERAL INTENTION.
Recommended by His Holiness,
Plus x.
THE SACRED LITURGY.

Catholic liturgy is the public service
Of God, and embraces all those Ceremo-
MES wherein priest and people unite in
prayer to the Most High. But pre-emi-
nently, sacred liturgy is identified with
the Holy Sacrifice Of the mass. In the
beginning the word liturgy meant
nothing else: and for the saints and
doctors of the early ages, the liturgy
was the one awful act, symbolic yet
real, whereby the whole round world
was bound by gold chains to the throne
of Cod"
But how has the present day departed
from that first charity, Holy mass is
the same now as then; it is offered on
myriad affairs from the rising TO the
setting Of the sun: but where are the
n1yriads who should be gathered round
those affairs? Yet upon the people rests
the solemn obligation OF honoring God
publicly as a people, in addition to the
promptings Of private devotion.
Our intention, therefore, and the aim
OF our actions this month should be
that the sacred liturgy become in real
fly what its name signifies, the prayer
Of the people: and that presence at
daily mass may be not the exception,
but the rule. Do we sometimes COM
plain that we ask God for so much, yet
receive SO lllliG- 1GTndE1S II Is THAT we
ask alone; perhaps 1T is that we have
never tested the efficacy of prayer per
severingly poured out not where two or
three are gathered in Chlist's name,
but q whole people-and Christ in the
midst Of them, Do we feel that our
faith is weak, and that at it's command
the mountainous difficulties in our way
do not remove themselves? The Eu-
ChaTist is the sacrament of faith, and
its liturgy the voice of the faithful. We
see everywhere today the need there
is Of Catholic spirit; yet how is Cath
Ole spirit to grow, unless the source Of
its growth be the Catholic altar? The
language of the liturgyis itself bond
of union and stability, venerable in IT'S
age, honored in its origin, glorious in
its memories.
Let us pray, then. that the sacred lit
urgy may be known and valued better
by all Catholics; that devout attend
ance at mass may grow in frequency
and that, far from being a mere per-
Torrance of duty, it may mark the be-
ginning on earth Of those divine praises
which eternity viii make familiar.

CHEYENNE, WYO.

without supernatural aid. the Right
Rev. J. J. Beane, bishop of Cheyenne.
Monday night delivered his first
address at Denver of a series
on The Reasonablness of the
Catholic Belief" Over eight thousand
people heard the address. Bishop Keane
stated that scientists have vainly en-
deavored to prove that neither God nor
any other supernatural or heavenly aid
was necessary to explain the beginning
Of the universe, and that this failure
has done more to intesify the general
belief IL Color a diety of omni-
potent powers-that any other one
cause in recent years. These lectures
are being given nightly this week in

the local council of the knights of Co

INTEREST InRO[LER
MATCH

Seattle, June 16.-Intense interest
is being exhibited among the sportA
ing circles of Seattle ana the north
west over the outcome Of the wrest-
ling match between DR.. NIB. F. Roll
Ter, the crack athlete, and Big YOU
stiff, the giant Turk whose prowess
on the mat Is known all over the
world, which will be pulled off Fri
day night at the Arena on the Pay
Streak OF the Pacific
exposition.
Both of the big men are In the
pink of condition and each is conf
dent of victory The fact that the
two men have defeated everybody Of
prominence in wrestling in the United
States except Frank Gotch makes 1t
difficult to predict the outcome of a
match between them.
DR.. Roller left Chicago Sunday
night for Seattle. He comes direct
from a victory at Tusceolo, ILL.,, his
birthplace, over the well-known
heavyweight wrestler, Jack Reimer.
Roller won the handicap match by
throwing Reimer three times in an
hour This Is trick which Cham
pion Gotch himself failed to perform.
In a handicap bout between Reimer
and the champion recently, Gotch
succeeded in throwing his opponent
only once in an hour and lost RS
handicap.

ment. A prominent attorney of Olyni-
pia is smoking cigarettes, carrying
the makings openly and rolling them
obtrusively and offers to defend any
offender arrested and thus test the
validity of the law. There is quiet
rebellion against the new marriage
license law and that also probably
will be brought into court for a test.
1t is desirable to have this question
of validity promptly settled. There
is wide divergence in the attitude of
officials in various cities Of the state.
Some have got right at the work Of
enforcing the law. In several of the
smaller cities the saloons have COM
piled with the "open-face'' require
ment. There have been some arrests
for violation of the cigarette law.
But generally the officials are wait
ing to see what the courts will say
about the new laws. There is no
finality in legislative enactments.
The legislature proposes and courts
dispose. And the courts have dis
posed of lot of laws in the last ten
years. Twenty-Five per cent o fthe
enactments have been found defec-
tive. This encourages those affect
ed to take a chance on any new meas
ure. And the example of judges ig-
noring the law in the matter of
gowns has it's effect also. There has
long been doubt in the minds Of many
as to the desirability of constitu-
tional restraint. Some hold that leg
islative acts should be taken as an
expression of the sentiment OF the
ruling majority and stand as the law
This is the system in England. In
this country the legislators run coun-
ter to the more or less outgrown linn
itations of a constitution, and a con-
stitution which is susceptible OF va
rious interpretations. 1t is probable
that the wholesome laws now chal-
longing attention will be nullified
or qualified despite the fact that they
are approved by two-thirds of the
people of the state.-Everett Trib-

RICH JAP NAY Be
DEPOREED
OFFICIALS HOLD
HIM UP ON HIS RETURN BE-
CAUSE HIS REPUTATION IS
BAD-LIVED IN SEATTLE.

Vancouver, B. c., June 16.-As
the result of objections lodged by the
United States immigration authori-
ties Hirade, prominent Japanese Of
Seattle, is held here pending the de-
cision of board of inquiry which is
investigating the case. Hirade ar
rived on Saturday evening on the
Empress Of India bound for Seattle,
but he was not allowed to proceed.
The reason of this action Is that
the United States officials are not
satisfied that the Jap Is a desirable
citizen, although he resided on this
Coast for Is years. 1t Is in his con-
nections in Seattle which led the i'm
migration people to seize this appor-
tunity of Investigating his conduct.
Hirade is a banker. holding an in
terest in an oriental bank at Seattle.
He is also said to be the proprietor
of one or more other establishments,
and when Hirade went on a trip to
japan recently it was decided that
before he would be readmitted to the
United STATES his character would
have to undergo searching investi-
cation.
When he arrived on Saturday he
was informed of this, and until the
board of inquiry concludes his fate
will be in the balance. He was al
lowed to land by the Canadian immi-
grafton authorities on the guarantee
of Consul Yada, who promises to pro-
duce him if it was decided that he
should be deported. Hirade has been
i'll Seattle for many years. Besides
his interest in the bank he has con-
siderable other property and is sail
to be one of the wealthiest of the
japanese colony at the Sound city.

an Sugar Refining company, which
was originally started by Hawaiian
planters.
There are also some beet sugar
plants. These concerns. according to
the popular impression, work in har-
mony. This accounts for the fact
that they are unable to get a rela-
lively higher price for product In
California than the refiners quote in
this market.
1t is generally believed that Adolph
and John D. Spreckels are not on

SUGAR BARONS OF PACIFIC
COAST MAY ENGAGE IN WAR
WITHIN NEXT FEW MONTHS
SPRECKEIAS INTERESTED.

Plans for an extensive sugar war
on the Pacific coast are being laid in
Wall street, according to dispatches
from New York, which declare that
Independent refining interests are
getting ready to compete with the
Western Sugar Refining company
and the California Hawaiian Sugar
Refining company.
The talked of plans have not yet
taken definite shape, says a San
Francisco report, although the in
refining interests point out
that, unless the current high prices
quoted for sugar in San Francisco are
lowered to conform with those now
prevailing in the east, arrangements
to erect plants on the Pacific coast
will be speedily completed.
The New York dispatches quote
the head of one of the large eastern
sugar refining concerns as giving this
review of the situation:
'As the situation stands now, re-
fined sugar in California. where
there is no competition, is bringing
something like $50 cents, without
the refners having to pay any duty
on sugar coming from the Hawaiian
islands. This compares with 4.S5
cents, the price ruling in this mar
ket, where there is much rivalry for
business.
I'm other words, the combination
on the coast has everything It's own
way and for that reason it Is dis
posed to obtain the highest price
possible for its sugar. This has in
vited considerable criticism among
many persons in the trade, and l
don't mind telling you that certain
persons who are prominently identi
fed with Independent refineries in
the east are discussing the advis-
ability of extending their operations
to the coast"
