the dead, otherwise what was the use
of making themS
There are few that die in the perfect
state required for entrance into the
presence of God. This perfection is
required as numerous texts signify.
Likewise there are vast numbers OF
devout christians who die with some
slight stain of sin on their souls.
Where do they goY Not assuredly to
the eternal fire which mentioned SO
frequently wide Matt. XIV. 41-46;
Mark tx, A, As; II Thess. i. o. Jude
49, which SO clearly speak of an
eternal punishment, but to middle
state, as dictated by reason and logic.
To deny the Purgatory idea of Cath
olics because it is not mentioned in
the Bible under the express term
"Purgatory' orthodox PrOtestants
might just as we'll deny the Trinity
and Incarnation as terms, because
they are not so mentioned in the Scrip
lures An existence of purgatory is
logical in every way. The justice of
God demands it, and the reason of
man should assent to it. Millions dy-
ing in every shade of sin from the
smallest to the greatest and every de-
gree of contrition from perfect to the
hastily summoned death-bed repent
ance must he treated by just God
with the same measure of Justice pro
rata that He would accord the man
who should die in perfect condition
| of morals. Even the heathens believed
in this doctrine for Plato (Gorgias,
Vol. |, p. $50, II. ny distinguishes
between durable and incurable offences
to be punished hereafter-one for a
time, the other forever.
But over all this mass of authority
shadows the justice and mercy of God,
who will see that men REPAY the last
farthing" Matt. V. 26) and who has
the power to settle all things rightly.
Catholics have no prepared formuls
for the pains of purgatory, or hell, eth
|
back to tell just what is the "ordel
of the day" there. They believe how
ever, that the dead in purgatory are
blessed for they shall certainly see thu
face of God. Neither does the Catho
lie Church know anything about thu
duration of the sufferings in Purgator!
or of what kind they may be. Their
is no set performance decreed by tn
Catholic Church in this matter ant
will not be. Exclusion from tn
beatific vision, or the happiness of tn
sight of God, will be, SO many think
the principal worm that will tor
ture in purgatory, but as for applying
hot pinchers, rakes and pitchforks-
that is entirely untenable. If purga
tory is such hot place, it will take
peculiar form of manufacture of thes
articles to stand the climate. Let u
have no more such rubbish.

We are in receipt of considerably
red-lined tract from friend in Wash
ington, giving the answers of the va
rious churches as to where our dead
go. Among them we find the Catholic
side represented, or rather misrepre-
scented, and so badly that this week
we shall try to express in as few words
as possible the Catholic idea in regard
to the matter. We are always ready
to write on anything from baseball to
church doctrine according to our un-
derstanding and the brain power
which we have been granted The
tract was evidently sent to draw re-
ply, and while we shall attack no 9th
er church we correct the misre
presentations contained in it to the
best of our ability.

sin contained probably the most of
Tending error. that of casting the
vote of that state for William H Taft
of New York" instead of Ohio GER
tiicate after certificate failed TO show
the names of the state of the persons
voted for. 1t was failure of the Off
Gals who prepared the certificates to
designate the state which caused the
teliers to refrain from saying that the
certificates were not in due form
Only once did Senator Bailey add
these words and that was in the case
of Mississippi where the certificate
was very short and easily examined.
In discussing the canvass, Senator
Bailey said:
'Of course / had not the slightest
disposition to challenge the vote OF
Wisconsin because I perfectly under
stood that the electors of that state
desired and intended to vote for the
Republican candidate for president.
/ was not, however, willing TO allow
the vote TO be recorded for William
H. Taft of Ohio when it had been
cast for William II. Taft, of New
York, without calling attention to the
mistake. The addition of the state OF
the candidate for whom the electoral
vote is absolutely essential to a prop
er certificate for under the cOnStitu-
ton the electors of a state cannot
vote for candidates for president and
vice president who are inhabitants OF
the same state as the voting electors.
An examination of those certifi-
Gates would show quite a number OF
irregularities that would be sufficient
to exclude them in court room. 1
believe it plain that there ought to be
some form prescribed so that the
IeectorS OF every state could easily
make it certain that their certificate
was duly and properly made"
Senator Bailey will probably intro
duce during this session bill pre-
scribing q form.

Washington, Feb. 11.-Senator

on appropriations concerning the ef-
feet OF limitations upon the secret
service contained in the sundry civil
bill for the fiscal year 1909, which
was the subject of protest by Presi-

The committee found the admins
trattOn had not been hampered in it's
work by the action of congress in
limiting the operations of the secret
service. HemenWay declared the
charge made by the president con-
corning the secret service was alb
sOlutely wrong and erroneous. and
never ought to have been made"

HOME COMING OF BIG

paCity OF $40 persons which will sf-
ford ample accommodation for the
members and friends of the league.
FOrty-eight men have died on this
fleet since 1t left Hampton Roads in
December, 1907, up to the time the
ships sailed from Gibraltar, according
10 the navy departments figures.
Some of the bodies have been sent

the remainder have found resting

walks OF life.
Wireless teIegraphy is playing a
part in making pleasant for officers
and men the final stage of the trip by
conveying to the ships the news Of
the day at home and abroad, also it
is the means by which orders may at
any time be conveyed to Admiral
Sperry by the ~avy department. This
can be accomplished through the gov
eminent or other wireless stations on
shore and by relay through various
east and west bound trans Atlantic
liners.
The sensitive instruments can pick
up the budget of press news sent
broadcast over the ocean by wireless
from Cape Cod, Mass, and from Poid
