canal would provide a means TO bring
vessels and men to the defense of the
National Capital, which would make inn
possible a repetition of the disaster which
occurred in the war of 1872, when the
English took possession of Washington.
The construction of this canal would

suggested that much smaller channel

DAY OF PERSONALITIES PAST.

Two northern Iowa editors have
signed peace tract and agree not to
indulge in any further personal abuse,
one of the other. The conclusion is
sensible, remarks the Monticello Qa.
Express, but it would have been not
only more sensible but wiser had the
occasion for the agreement never
arisen. They are both smirched with
the filth intended for the other, and
among some good people they have the
reputation of being blackguards. The
day of personal journalism is past. The
occasional newspaper man who uses
the language of the fish market in his
controversies with those who do not
agree with him belongs to period
that is not now. The public cares no
thing for the personal quarrels and
spiteful doings of publisher of a
newspaper. Publishers Auxiliary.

MADE DOMESTIC PRELATE.
lnvestiture of MonsiSnor Faust Took
Place at AsSinins Wednesday
MorninQ.

Holy Name church at Assinins was
the scene of very solemn occasion
Wednesday morning, the occasion be-
ing the investiture of Rev. Father
Faust as domestic prelate to his holi-
ness Pope Plus X, with the title of
monsignor.
Bishop Els of Marquette was present
and presided, saying Mass and per-
forming the investiture. He was as
sisted by other priests. A large num-
ber of the priests of the diocese were
present, as we'll as host of FIR.
Faust's county friends.
This investiture will not make any
difference in the method OF living or in
the station of Father Faust. 1t is the
same as the honors bestowed upon Ma
poleon's soldiers when he conferred up
on them the Cross of the Legion of
Honor. This bestowal did not increase
or promote them to the rank of officer,
they were still common soldiers, though
soldiers who had done brave deeds and
had gained the confidence of their
great commander, who showed this
confidence by presenting them with a
token. And so it is with the priest.
He is still the parish priest, striving
his best to make the best of circum-
stances at the old Indian mission at
Assinins, where the scene of his labors
has been laid for eight years past, and
here is the battle field where he re-
ceived his Cross of the Legion of Hon.
or-the emperor, the Pope, the token,
simply the title of monsignor, like the
Napoleonic cross. the highest honor
that can be conferred on a priest of
God.
To the good old German priest the re-
ceiving of this honor makes little diff
ference. What other men would con-
slider the highest honor he considers a
trife. Not through independence or
haughtiness. but through the great un-
selfshness and self-sacriRce that has
characterized his work during his many
years as a priest of the Catholic
church. Down in his heart the good
father considers this trifle; in fact he
would have been better pleased to have
received material recognition, that he
might lavish it on his poor people, the
| Indians.

BALDWIN FOUND GUILTY.
Editor Of Escanaba Journal Who As
sailed Osborn's Character Con-
victed OF Criminal Libel.

Escanaba, Mich, Sept. 13. Charged
with criminal libel in having assailed
the character and reputation of Chase
S. Osborn of Sault Ste. Marie in the
publication of campaign article in the
Escanaba Journal of. which weekly
newspaper he is the editor and publish
er, F. l.. Baldwin was tried before a
jury in the court of Police Judge Emil
Glaser here today. The jury returned
a verdict of guilty, whereupon the de-
fendant was sentenced to ninety days
in Jail and was fined 800.
The article upon which the charge
was based aroused the odium of the
representative press of the state and
was resented even by friends of the
author. 1t was published during the
height of the struggle for the Republi-
can nomination for governor, and rath-
er than injuring the candidacy of Mr..
Osborn it is felt that it had no small
part in rolling up the 500 mans re-
markable plurality. Mr.. Osborn was
moved deeply by the unwarranted at
tack upon him, and he at once took
steps to bring the Escanaba publisher
before the bar of justice. The guber-
natorial nominee was in court today.
Prosecuting Attorney Doetsch of
Delta county and Attorney M. c.
Spencer of Escanaba appeared for the
people. Editor Baldwin was defended
by former Judge c. r. Brown of Mar
quette and Attorney Ryall of this city.
The trial aroused great interest and its
course was followed with eagerness by
crowd which packed the court room
