Rev. w. K. Ryan, the spiritual director,
was unanimously elected the chairman
of the meeting, as well as the manager

Canada's Railroad Bosses.

1t is no exaggeration to assert that
there is no other single body of men in
Canada vested with such all-inclusive
powers over so much capital and organ
ization as the Dominion railway com
mission. The commissioners have su-
pervision over intrastate as well as over
interstate commerce. They seem to be
able to deal with everything concerning
a railroad, from fixing it's location to
forbidding it to blow its whistle. In adj
dition, the commission has supervision
and rather inclusive powers over express
companies, telephone companies, and

What the Census Shows.
lThe Newark Monitors

tine newark MONITOR
Whenever the remarkable increase III
the Catholic population of the United
States is mentioned in certain quarters,
a supplementary commentary is APP
pended that quite takes away all the
glory. For instance, the current Out
look, while acknowledging that in six
teen years our numbers have doubled,
gives as a reason the large tide of i'm
migration and the fact that the bap-
tized persons, including infants and
adults who never attend church arc
counted; while in Protestant denomina-
lions only those are included who are
voluntarily enrolled.
1t is not true that immigration plays
even a conspicuous part in the remark
able increase. Certainly immigration
has helped to swell the numbers, ana
we are proud of the heroic efforts made
in every diocese of the country to care
for the immigrants and to supply them
with priests as far as possible of their
own country and speaking their own
language.
As regards enumerating baptized in
fants and even non-churchgoing adults
even so: they are Catholics, affiliated
to no other church, called by no other
name.
Indeed, if the full qIOtium of baptized
adult Catholics were recorded and hand
ed in by the parish priests-we mean, of
course, the 1on-churchgoing ones-the
figures would be very much augmented.
This voluntary enrolment" in the
separated churches sounds big and fair
but means very little. Thousands

Decrease of Rural Population in
Enuland.

A remarkable illustration of the de-
crease in rural population comes from
the neighborhood of Tiverton. Only a
few years ago there were sixty-two
childrens names on the books of Cove
school; now there are only seventeen.
In fact, the attendance has so seriously
fallen off that the Tiverton education
authority has decided to close the school
and transfer the seventeen scholars to
Botham. which is three and a half miles
nearer Tiverton. The children have to
be conveyed to the new school every
morning and brought back every night
at the expense of the authority. This
is cheaper than maintaining school
at cove Tor seventeen scholars, for the
cost was Else yeaf, which works o,,t
