TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPT.

Indianapolis. Ind, July st has at
last been definitely decided by the
Democrats that william J. Bryan. the
peerless one" shall not be invited to
come into Indiana and make campaign
speeches this year. He will not even
be asked to come in and work for his
old friend and running mate, John w
Kern. although 1t is undoubtedly true
that there are thousands of Democrats
in the state that would like to hear him
again. They have always warmed up to
the tune of Bryan's voice and have
made the welkin and the neighborhood
ring with their shouts OF praise for
Bryan every time he has delivered a
speech in this state, but this year they
are TO have none of IL.
Bryan. as everybody knows. has long
been the popular idol of the Indiana
Democracy, just as he has been the
popular idol of the great mass of
Democracy. just as he has been the
popular idol OF the great mass Of
Democrats all over the country, but
while this is true, it is also true that
the Democrats who have all along pro-
fessed 70 love Bryan to the very core
have not voted for him as they might
have been expected to do. They have
not voted as they have shouted. es-
pecially in Indiana. This always has
been one of the stories of politics in
Indiana 1t will be remembered that
during the closing days of the cam
paign OF 1908 Bryan made speaking
tour OF Indiana, starting in at Union
City in the early morning of the Sat
urday before the election and visiting
Richmond. Muncie, Marion, Anderson,
Peru, Rochester, South Bend Michigan
City, Laporte, Gary and numerous other
places and winding up at Chicago that
night This was one of the most re-
narkable one day speaking trips ever
made in Indiana by candidate
Bryan was greeted by enormous crowds
all over the state. At Muncie there
was the largest crowd ever seen in
that city and the crowd yelled itself
hoarse and black in the face when
Bryan came to town. 1t looked like
Bryan would carry Delaware county by
five Thousand. judging from the crowd
But when the votes were counted or
the following Tuesday it was found
that the county had gone Republican
by about the usual majority. And sc
it was everywhere The same thing
happened.
But in spite Of all of this. Bryan is q
Democratic idol Indiana has been a
Bryan Democratic state ever since
Bryan entered national politics Ir
1904 fully 10000, Democrats, according
to the estimates published at that time
remained away from the polls and re
fused to vote for Judge Parker fol
President, because they were for Bryar
first, last and all the time. The result
is well remem bered. Parker was snow
ed so deep that he could not be resur-
rected
Now, since it has been decided thai
BRYAN is not TO he asked to come into
Indiana this year. mainly because the
Taggart crowd does not want him Il
come. it is believed to be a safe esti
mate to say that the soreness in the
party over this fact this year will bt
almost as great as it was in 1904. and
that the result viii be fully over
whelming.
Early in the season it was said tina
the Democratic state organization
would probably ask Bryan to max,

MAY RESTORE ABBEY.

The Paris Eclair gives welcome
news of the fate of the famous Abbey
of Solesmes, from which the Benedic-
tine Fathers were expelled by the
French government. Such is the
esteem in which the Benedictines are
held in France that twice when the
abbey was put up to auction not bid
was made. After these vain attempts
to dispose of the property a commit
tee of men of letters, under the pres
idency of NJ. Victor Charpentier took
steps with a view to getting the gov
eminent to give them on easy terms
the splendid granite building ON the
banks of the Sarthe. The intention
was to set up at Solesmes a sanitOrium
for savents, painters and others. The
proposal was not received very favor
ably by the Catholic public in France,
many of whom cherished the hope
that the Benedictine monks would one
day return to their beloved cloisters.
NJ. Maurice Barres. who was a mem
Der of the committee, resigned and the
project fell through. The abbey has
now being offered for sale a third time
and has been purchased by the Mar
quis de Juigne for 100000 francs. The
Eclair believes that his object was to
save it for the Benedictines, and pre-
diets that when the fitting time comes
it will be restored to them.

MONSIGNOR KENNEDY A CARDI.
NAIL

New York-A cablegram received
in New York from Rome contains
news of the greatest Importance to
Catholics in America. This news is
to the effect that the Holy Father has
decided to create an additional Ameri-
can cardinal at the consistory to be
held this autumn. The cablegram is
from a reliable source and states that
His Holiness would elevate to the car
dinalate Bishop Thomas F. Kennedy,
now recor of the American college in
the Eternal City
Bishop Kennedy is a native of the
city of Philadelphia, and is a figure
standing prominently in the forefront
both in affairs at the Vatican and i'll
Catholic affairs throughout America.
He keeps in as close touch as possible
with the latter and is well known 30
all leading American prelates. He is
the parsonage in Rome through whom
audiences with the Holy Father him
self are arranged, and it is thus that
he MAS become personally acquainted
with many American bishops and arch
bishops with whom he is a great ia
vorite. He is a prelate of scholarship
and of great talents, and it is, more
over, well known that he is one oe the
pTelates in whom the Holy Father has
great confidence, as well as being the
one man upon whom all the American
prelates can unite in favoring his Sc
lection for the second cardinal in tine

A CARPET OF FLOWERS.

1t will be over a carpet of natural
flowers that the Holy Eucharist will
be carried through the streets of Mon
treal at the procession during the Eu-
chariStic congress. Not square inch
of the pavement will be left bare, and
tons of flowers will be used for the
purpose, being spread on the ground
all along the way, few yards in adj
vance of the canopy covering the papal
legate carrying the consecrated host.
In anticipation of the event, the
Sacred Heart league started a move
ment in April last, for the raising of
flowers and thousands answered to
the call from Nova Scotia to the Rock
les Everywhere in North America.
where there is Catholic center, a few
families have raised flowers for the
Eucharistic congress- the finest of
which will be used to decorate the
grounds and the balance to carpet the
streets.
In some localities the propaganda of
the Sacred Heart league did not take
soon enough to allow the people to
have by this time flowers ready to be
to Montreal: in some other
places the distance does not allow a
safe shipment of such perishables as
natural flowers. In these cases, the
were sent in cash, and
though the committee has plenty of
time, the cash receipts for flowers al
ready amount to over six hundred dol
lars from the outside.-MontreaI Star.

ERS FROM ILLNESS

Montreal Quebec, Sept. 8-Cardi-
nal Vannutelli, the papel legate to the
eucharistic congress, announced this
morning that he was considerably re-
freshed by the few hours reast he had
been able to get after the curtailment
of the governments reception last
night on account of his indisposition.
To the correspondent of the Associ-
ated Press the legate said today:
please state that l am quite my
conceded today l really regreat that
fatigue prevented me from seeing the
good people who conferred such honor
upon me. / hope to do better at the
city's reception tonight.
This morning the cardinal officiated
at pontifical mass in the cathedral
forms of religious orders. Many were
unable to get within block of the
church. The lagete gave the papal
blessing from the balcony.
Mayor Guerin announced that the
city hoped at tonight's reception to
prevent a reception of the confusion
that prevailed at last nights affair.
The reception will be held at the
city hall, and police, instead of the
papal chamberlains, will be near the
legate
Cardinal Vannutelli is extremely
sensitive in the matter of personal at
tention. Several times he has firmly
intimated to those about him that
while he appreciated the motives. he
would prefer that they would be less
solicitous about his physical condi-

DENIES TROUBLE WITH PORTU
GAL.

The Vatican has authorized a denial
of the report that it was on the verge
of a rupture with Portugal because of
the Portuguese governments recent
censure of the Catholic bishop of
Braga for suppressing a Franciscan
newspaper without first having Sc
cured the consent of the government
to do so.
1t also was asserted at the Vatican
that there was no clerical plot for the
overthrow of the Portuguese mon
archy, and that the presence in Por-
tugal of Alexandra Lerroux, chief Of
the Republicans in Barcelona, Spain,
had led the Vatican authorities to be-
lieve that the reports of such a plot
were instigated by Lerroux in order to
give their enemies pretext for an at
tack on Catholics
Concerning PortugaPs protest o.
August 20, against the objectionable
attitude" of Mgr. Dr. j. Tonti, the
Papal nuncio at Lisbon, during the pc
Rod of tension between Portugal and
the Holy See, the Vatican points out
that the whole affair has been greatly
exaggerated.
The anti-clericals have tried to
create the impression that there is a
conflict between the Vatican and the
Portuguese government, although that
there was no conflict is proven by the
cordial well wishes sent by King Man.
