METHoDlSTS REPLY.

In the August number of the North
American Review Rev. s. NJ. Vernon
ID. D., of Temple University. Pa, has
as he states, responded to the request
of the publishers of the North Amer
lean Review and offered reply to
the article OH the Methodist Episcopal
Church of America in Italy by Arch
bishop Ireland, published a month ago
in the same magazine. In that ar
ticle Archbishop Ireland clearly point
ed out the nature of the Methodist
propaganda by extracts from Metho-
dist writer's ranking high in their
church. Among other sources he quoted
from -Four and One-half Years in the
Italy Mission-A Criticism by Everett
Is. Stackpole. D. D."
Strangely enough DR.. Vernon de-
voted more than one-fourth of his re-
ply to an attempt to show why Dr.
Stackpole should not be considered an
authority in the Methodist church and
instead of denying the truth Of the
Doctors writings he makes the plea
that the book is sixteen years old. And
with that the Rev. Stackpole is laid
aside for private use. He has, how

\ scheme OF one OF the Lodges Of
French Masons of Montreal was I'M
carthed short time ago which throws
considerable light on the nature of that
organization. The Lodge seems to be
intent on perpetrating some scandal
lous outrages during the week the Eu-
charistic congress is being held in
Montreal. According to the report the
Lodge planned to direct strangers
among the clergy to houses of evil
reputation under the pretext of di-
recting them to respectable boarding
houses and then expose their victims.
1t is to be hoped that nothing will oc-
cur to mar the splendor of that great
event and those who attend should ex-
ercise all possible vigilance TO avoid
being the dupes of these French Ma
sons.

BUYING UP VOTES.

Some time ago a man who was en-
ployed in Pennsylvania to distribute
brides among the members Of the
state legislature, made the astound
ing statement that every man has his
price. When asked what he meant,
he replied that he thought it was
possible to buy any mans vote if a
sufficient price were offered and g
proper method of procedure followed.
Of course, no one will take that
statement seriously. There are men
in this country today who could not
be moved to do that which is opposed
to the dictates of their conscience for
any bride, no matter how fabulous in
size. The one who makes such dec
laration is man without a conscience
who has associated with men of his
own kind.
But there is something worth con-
sidering in the statement w:Hch lays
stress on the method Of procedure. The
ease or difficulty Of overcoming a
temptation depends very largely on the
manner in which it presents itself.
If Satan were to appear before the
victim whom he would seduce in the
hideous form of creature with horns
and cloven feet, his mission of de-
stroying souls Would be vain. He does
not appear to his victim in that way.
Rather does he make the foulest crime
assume the appearance Of a thing of
pleasure. Reason is first dethroned ana
then the rest is easy.
Much in the same way do those who
buy up legislatures proceed. Money
may be sufficient to buy some men but
subtle argument combined with money
must be supplied before others can be
reached. When a man is strongly
tempted it takes but little argument
to speed him on his way. If a corpor-
alton wants to have certain measure
passed or rejected all it has to do is
to trump up number of plausible ar
guments which corrupt legislators may
use on their constituents and money
will do the rest. Then there is the
added force of the assured friendlness
of wealthy corporation when election
time comes around.
The Catholic Church warns people
to avoid the occasions of sin. 1t is true
that people often do rash things when
circumstances lead up to them which
they would never think of doing if
they We're to consider the matter calm
ly. If the men who are in public serv-
ice will by the uprightness Of their
lives show themselves to be dangerous
persons for corporation agents to APP
proach they will forego much Of the
dangers that Turk in their way.

objection to chautauqua entertain

properly conducted. AS in the case Of
the latter the nature Of the entertain

community. If theatergoers and chau-
tauqua visitors are willing to spend
their money for demoralizing enter
tainments. they will get just such en-
tertainments; if they place their ban
on them they will soon get rid of them.

great trouble is too many Catholics
are afraid to assert themselves, even
when they know they are right just
because they will receive a little hos
tile criticism. When a man takes a
| back seat the world takes it for grant,
ed that the back seat was made for
his special use. There isn't any need
iof Catholics being afraid of voicing
their sentients when it is clear to
all that they are being imposed on.
They should consider their religion

abuse just as they would anything
else belonging to them.

DR.. Vernon's article is neither a refu-

for Methodism. He condemns Dr..
Stackpole in the introduction of his
paper and before he reaches the end
he is guilty himself of destinations 50

Osservatore Romano, the official pa
per of the Vatican, offers enlightening
comment on the question of the atti-
tude of the Holy See toward Spain.
1t says:
"Since the question of the juridiciAl
position of the religious Orders and
Congregations has arisen in Spain.
number of newspapers have diffusel
inexact news concerning the DISPOSE

posed a systematic refusal to any rea-
sonable agreement. On the contrary,
we are authorized to declare that the
Holy See has shown itself disposed 20
make important concessions not less
with the present Cabinet than with it's
predecessors. Among them we note:
the limitation of the religious houses,
by the suppression of all those in
which less than twelve religious reside
i-saVing some opportune exceptions;
the obligation for opening new houses;
the subsection of the religious Con-
gregations to the imposts of the Realm
which are paid by other Spanish juri-
dicial persons or subjects; the obliga-
ton for foreigners, who intend 10

tons possessing juridicial personality

the civil laws. All this, while it DEM
onstrates the benevolent dispositions of
the Holy Father towards the Spanish
nation, proves also how incorrect and
unjust it would be for the Government
to take, of its own initiative, measures
relating to the Orders and Congrega-
tions, which from their very nature
are of a religious character, and which
are at present the object of negotia-
tons between the two powers, as
| though the attitude of the Holy See
rendered impossible any fair arrange
ment."
| Premier Canalejas may, however,
! find trouble in carrying out his pro-
posed plans. Spain is essentially a
Catholic country and the bishops of
Spain have registered their protest
against the Premier's action. The peo-
jple are incensed over the unwarranted
move that has been taken and from
all indications the Church is too much
| alive and active to submit to anything
like the policy which the anti-clerical
party is striving to carry out.
The dispatches concerning the devel-
opments between Spain and the, Vat
lean are not reliable. Telegraphic
agencies are in the control of the anti
clerical leaders and nothing that would
injure their cause is transmitted by
them,

SPAIN AND THE HOLY SEE.

Premier Canalejas has proceeded Il
step further in his anti clerical pro-
gram. According to press dispatches
the Spanish ambassador to the Vat
lean has been called back to Madrid,
thus ending the possibility &of peace
full diplomatic negotiations: At the
same time the attempt is being made
to have it appear as if the Spanish
government had been driven to this
action by the intolerancy of the Vat
lean.
The fact is the prime minister of
Spain has violated the terms of the
Concordat which is mutual agree
ment between Spain and the Holy Sec
covering the conservation and promo
ton of religious interests in the Span
ish kingdom. No government on earth
would think of violating the terms OF
it's treaty with another government UNI
less it were looking for trouble. This
is what Premier Canalejas has done
He has violated the agreement with
the Vatican and then he accuses the
Vatican of being intolerant.
In reality it isn't the intolerance 81
the Vatican that is rousing the Premier
to follow his unwarranted course, L
is his inherent anti-clerical hatred
He. backed up by the Masonic and
athfestic element in Spain, and in
censed by the success of the same
movement in France. is plotting the
downfall Of the Church. He is taking

semblance of an excuse for his present
procedure.

TOURIST TRADE.

A conservative estimate places the
annual number of United States tour
lists in Europe at between 10000 aud
100000. Placing the average individ-
ual expenditure at $1,000 this would
mean that United States pleasure seek
ers dump not less than one hundred
and fifty million dollars into European
Golfers annually. 1t is true that the
average individual expenditure may
not reach $1,000. but when it is con-
sidered that estimates of United States
as high as 100000 it does seem that
the estimated expenditure is fairly
conservative. Since the automobile
craze took hold of the country each
year has seen more and more United
States tourists taking their favorite
cars with them, thus enabling them to
suit their excursions more to their taste
and, incidentally, to strew their course
with a greater abundance of Amer
lean dollars.
There are very few people for whom
the idea of travelling in foreign coun-
try does not possess a fascination The
enchanting lure of distant places often
causes people to spend money for trav-
ell at the sacrifice of necessities in the
home. Then there are those who visit
Europe to see the wonderful scenery
renowned in books when perhaps they
have never taken enough interest in
their own country to visit it's scenic
places that differ from the best in Eu-
rope only in that they are not asso-
ciated with the shadowy grandeurs Of
the past. Things near at hand are
usually not considered wonderful and
the average person who has a thou
sand dollars to burn is much more like
ly to hasten away to Europe than to
plan a tour of the United States.
AS a result the merchants and hotel
keepers of Europe thrive on tourist
trade. France is the most fortunate
of the European countries in this re-
spect. Paris bankers have estimated
that their country is enriched by six
hundred million dollars every year as
"a result of tourist traffic. England
comes in for another large share and
so with Germany and the various other
countries.
| A great deal of this large expendi-
ture goes out for Partisan finery. Paris
dictates what fashionable people shall
wear and it is for this reason more
than any other that the French cap
ital gets such a large share of the
money spent by travellers in Europe
In view of the fact that our own coun.
. try is not rich in historical associa-
. tons about the only way it would be
possible to keep large share of Am
erican money at home would be to
institute a fashion center here that
would at least not take dictations from
European fashion centers. Until ther
! 1t is likely that American wealth will
F! be spent in Europe without European.
