IRISH GUESTS.

The national convention of the
United Irish League of America will
take place In Buffalo. September 81
and 90. Preparations for the event
are practically completed and hope is
entertained that the gathering win be
one of the most successful, if not the
most successful the League has ever
had.
The convention will be honored by
the presence of four distinguished
members Of Parliament. viz, John E.
Redmond, r. P. OConnor, Joseph
Devlin and Alderman Boyle of Man.
chester. Bourke Corcoran Of New
York and Michael J. Ryan of Phila-
delphia will also be present and speak
on the opening day Of the convention.
After the convention has adjourned
the Irish guests will spend several
weeks in this country speaking in as
many cities as they will be able to
reach during their limited stay. They
will have to leave in time to be pres
ent at the opening Of Parliament on
Nov. 15ths
During the five or six weeks that
they are permitted to remain in Amer
lea John Redmond and his three COL
leagues will have an opportunity to
explain to Irish Americans the course
the Irish Party has pursued and the
position which 1t now occupies. In
view Of the fact that the time is so
limited and so many audiences will
be eager to hear what the men who
have been In the thick of the fight
have to say about Ireland's chances
for Home Rule in the immediate flu
ture, 1t becomes necessary to arrange
the details of the itineraries of the
speakers as early as possible. All the
Irish societies wishing to be host of
one of the Irish ENJOYS should make
application in time to enable the COM
mittee in charge of the arrangements

satisfactory to all concerned.
The Irish Home Rule struggle has
reached a crisis. How 1t will pass
through the critical stage will depend
largely on how the men at the front
are supported and encouraged. Irish
Americans should not be slow to lend
their aid in a way that will show the
Irish leaders that they have faith IN
them and their cause. Now is the time
to help with dollars and cheers to gain
for Ireland the freedom it has so long
sought. The next session of Parlia-
lnent will be an important one. The
Home Rule question will in all prob
ability be the predominant issue. The
Irish Party never needed encourage
ment more than now. The reception
which the Irish ENJOYS receive in
America will materially affect the re-
suits. Let all make an effort to add
some Zest to the cause.
On to Buffalo for the sake of Ire
land!

DEMOCRACY AND THE LORDS.

1t is said that the Catholics of Eng
land are the most democratic citizens
of the country. They are anxious to
see reforms brought about with view
to making Home Rule possible for Ire
land. The House of Lords is the OBJ
stacle which is preventing the onward
march. The democracy of England,
Scotland, Wales and Ireland Is op-
posed to the rule of hereditary families
and the influence eXerted against this
flaw in English government should
have telling effect. The fact that the
agitation against the House of Lords
has resulted in having the question
submitted to a conference shows that
progress is being made. If the confer
ence fails to come to an amicable
agreement it does not mean that the
question will be dropped. The Cath
Ollie Times Of London says:
Nothing can put back the resolve
of the democracy Of these islands to
have done with the brake of hereditary
privilege slowing down the wheel of
social and political progress. That fact
is so clear that staunch Tories recog-
nize the futility of going to the coun-
try with the House of Lords as an
election cry. But the settlement of
principles and details in questions of
Il constitutional character needs very
careful handling and requires cautious
consideration, which demands time.
Every aspect of the matter must be
viewed and it's results on future legls-
lative progress weighed and estimated.
Let then the conference take time, if it
only be able to announce In November
that time has been used to good pur-
pose. A settlement by accord between
both political parties will be welcomed
by us all. But it must be a real set
Element. And such a settlement can
not be considered real which does not
clear the path of social progress from
all obstruction and pave the way for
the grant Of Home Rule by curbng the
power of the unelected peers"
In view of the critical position in
which, they now find themselves it
would not be surprising if the Lords
would indicate their willingness to
make the desired concessions before
the opposition becomes so strong as to
wrest from them more power than
they would lose now in order to set
tie the questions that are troubling
the Empire. If the "unelected peers"
do not heed the just demands made
upon them they may find themselves
in deeper water before the troubled
clouds blow over.

MONTREAL'S WELCOME
Tho Twenty first international Eu-
charistio Congress in Session.

Montreal, Sept. with solemn
ceremony the twenty-firs information
al Eucharistic congress was opened in
ST. James cathedral in the presence of
hundreds of archbishops, bishops and
priests, representing nearly every
Catholic center in civilization. Long
before the papal legate, vincenzo
Vannutelli, quit the palace of the Arch
bishop Of Montreal, accompanied by
his suite, who were attired in the APP
parel of their rank, as papal chamber
lains, the streets leading to the cathed-
raj were damned.
When the legate reached the main
entrance of the cathedral, he was met
by Mgr. Bruchesi, the archbishop Of
Montreal, and by other church digni-.
taries and heads of religious orders
who escorted him to special throne
at which stood the papal chamberlains
Thomas Hughes Kelly of New York
and M. De Maitigni of Montreal, at
tired in the quaint garb of the ponti-
fical orders they represent. Cardinal
Logue occupied a second throne on
the Epistle side of the sanctuary.
The ceremony opened with the read
ing of the papal brief appointing Car
dinal Vannutelli legate to the con-
gress. Mgr. Bruchesi, archbishop of
Montreal. then delivered an address of
welcome in the name Of the hierarchy
of Canada and the United States
In this word of welcome the arch
bishop declared that there need be no
fear Of any untoward events in con-
nection with the congress, nor would
there be any opposition to the carry
ing of the Host through the streets of
Montreal.
II deem it a duty OH this solemn oc-
casion," he said, Ito make known to
your eminence the extraordinary good
will with which our separated breth-
rem greeted the name of our congress.
Their leading dailies have spoken of
1t as a solemn and inspiring event,
while several prominent men have Of
fered their gold and even their dwell
ings to welcome our distinguished
guests. They respect our tabernacle;
their attitude in viewing the passage
of the sacred host through our streets
will no rnosf oourton,,c Tho., 49, a..
stand that we are logical with the faith
and convictions for which we would be
ready to die. and they thereby render
a silent homage to that far-reaching
movement, by which the English par
lament so lately responded to the ap-
peal of the millions of Catholic sub
jects of the empire, in resembling the
obnoxious clause from the royal &C.
claration. Is this the awakening fore
told by many? Is 1t step toward doc
trinal unity?"
Earlier in the night the congress as
a body sent message to the pope to
which the pontin replied through the
papal secretary of state, Cardinal Mer-
ry del Val. At the close of these for
malities the pope's representative
mounted the pulpit, and. looking out
upon a multitude of men and women
gathered from all parts of the world

NEW RAILROAD FOLDER.

The 1910 edition of the Denver &
Rio Grande folder, Natural Re
sources of Colorado, Utah and New
Mexico" is especially valuable be-
cause the large map. which takes in
the territory from the Rocky Noun
tains west to the Pacific Coast, is
not only brought right up to date but
shows also the route and stations of
the new Western Pacific Railway, the
Pacific Coast extension of the Den
yer & Rio Grande Railroad from
Salt Lake City to San Francisco.
This new line was opened for
freight traffic some time ago, and
it is anticipated that passenger bust
ness will be inaugurated early in Au-
gust. 1t is said that the route through
the Sierras and down the Feather
River rivals in scenic attractions the
worldfamous Denver & Rio Grande.
Another interesting feature in con-
nection with this new Pacific Coast
line is the fact that there is no grade
of more than fifty-two feet to the
mile. which makes it possible to
conduct transportation across the
mountains at a lower cost over that
line than over any other now operat-
ing on the American continent. The
map is being distributed by the
Passenger department of the Denver
and Rio Grande Railroad.

MoGoTE RESERVOIR NEXT.

Within few weeks preliminary
voir, the location for which is eight
mi es southwest of Romeo. in the
foot hill of the Mogote peaks. Here
is natural reservoir site, being a
basin almost one hundred feet deep
and covering some 1,20O acres. The
only opening is a narrow canyon a
few rods wide. This will be closed
by concrete dam ninety feet high.
The most expensive part of the work
will be the construction of the tun-
mel to bring the water from the Cone
Jos river. This tunnel viii. be twelve
feet high, fourteen feet wide, half a
nile long and most of the way through
solid rock. 1t is estimated that the
project. when completed, will cost
$3.50 900 and will conserve $4,000 acre
feet or in other words will water
1000 acres.
Back of this new enterprise is a
stock company headed by Zeph. Chas.
Fe.t, Of Denver. Stock will be sold
to land owners on the bases of the
cost price of the reservoir and stock
holders will be given the preference
over outsiders in the distribution of
water. 1t will be optional with land
owners whether they buy stock or
not.
The first work undertaken will be
prospecting for a solid foundation for
the dam. The dirt taken from the ex.
cavation will be used to form the
temporary dam in the mouth of the
canyon to impound this fall and win
ter's rain and snow, so that an esti-
mate as to seepage and evaporation
may be formed
The reservoir site is on govern
ment land and the project has already
received the approval of the interior
department. First reservoir rights
have been secured on water from the
Conejos river. 1t is estimated that
the volume of water in the river
during the spring floods will fill the
reservoir in fourteen days. None of
the rights of any of the present
irrigation companies will be molested
or impaired as the reservoir can
be filled in the spring with water that
would otherwise never be used. Water
can be delivered to practically all
points in the southern end of the val
ley, west of the Rio Grande. 1t will
mean the cultivation of considerable
new land as well as an additional
safe guard against shortage on land
already under cultivation
