Tom Watson of Georgia is opposed
10 female suffrage for the reason that
it would augment the power Of the
Papal hierarchy in, obtaining political
control of this country. Listen to the
crank: 1.-The Pope will tell Cardinal
Gibbons what to do. the Cardinal would
tell Brother Ireland and from them
the orders would go to the priests
and the priests would tell the women.
Within twenty four hours the priests
could change enough votes to control
any congressional or presidential cleo
ton" II 7 ON kept posted he would
know that the prelates and priests are
not advocates of female suffrage. The

an executive officer of the govern
ment, and that he was usurping tho
power of the legislative body. If
Taft understood human nature, he
would have never tried to fix bills re-
lating to railroads and make amend
ments at the suggestion of railway
presidents before consulting either
branch Of Congress. Senator Cum
minis says:
my protest against the course of
this bill is not because the railroad
men were heard, but because they
were not heard in proper form. Be
tween Nov. 10 and the day when this
left the hands of the attorney general
and was placed in the hands of the
chairman of the committee of this
senate, many and radical changes were
made; and so far as 1 can now recol-
lect, substantially every change was
made to remove objections urged by
the railroads.
not know what the arguments or show
ings were that led to these changes,
If these railroad officials had appear
ed before us, what they said and what
they presented would have been pre-
served and laid before the senate and
such weight could now be given to
their facts and their arguments as
they deserve
President Taft should be more care
full in future. He may have a major
ity in Congress to pass any measures
he recommends, but he should recog-
nize the rights of the lawmakers and
keep within his own province. Let
the parties interested in legislation ap-
pear before Congress and not at the
executive mansion, and the represen-
tatives of the people will deal justly
with them. The people of the United
States do not elect presidents to make
laws at the national capital. The
Americans are not Porto Ricans or
Filipinos, but self governing people
and they will resent the interference
of president in legislative matters
His powers are defined in the consti-
tuition of the United States, and he
should not be permitted to arrogate
any power which it does not grant
him. In our opinion, Senator Cum
minis was fully justified in resentine
his high-handed methods, especially
in the affairs of corporate interests.

AUTocRAT. OF THE HOUSE.

speaker cannon OF the House OF
Representatives, has been rebuked.
Though he retains his position he will
DC no longer a car. as he is shorn of
his power. Ing future he, will be a
mere figurehead, who must obey the
will of the majority. The Republican
insurgents and Democrats are re-
sponsible for ousting him from the
Rules Committee of which he had the
appointment and to which he be-
longed. The committee consisted here
tofore of five members-three Repub-
licans and two Democrats with the
Speaker as chairman. Hereafter it
will be made up of six Republicans and
four Democrats elected by the House,
and they will select their own chair
man.
After Cannon had his claws clipped
a motion was made to get rid of him
as presiding officer, but that was con-
sidered too great a humiliation for the
old man to bear. The forty-t three in
surgents who voted with the Demo-
Gratis to eliminate him from the Rules
Committee would not vote for his
overthrow. Only nine of them voted
to GUST him from the office, and when
the matter was over he had the au-
dacity of haunting the whole body of
insurgents on their cowardice.
Three of the congressman from Min
nesota stood by Cannon all through,
namely, Tawney, Stevens and Nye.
The two latter displayed insurgency
of mild nature in voting against the
Payne tariff and left Tawney stand
alone on that occasion; but evidently
Stevens and Nye have since fallen into
the ranks of the standpatters for
reasons best known to themselves. In
the fight against Cannon, Nye came
out openly for the sage of Danville.
On Washingtons birthday he delivered
an address in which he lauded Taft
and received letter of thanks. from
the White House. Last Saturday
when Cannon's fate hung in the bal
ance, Nye made a speech which help
ed to save him from Sdecapitation as
presiding officer. In vehement tones
Mr.. Nye said:''' NJ a.

AS the uproar gradually died out

LESSON OF EASTER SUNDAY.

The penitential season Of Lent is
drawing to a close and the joyous fes-
tival of Easter is to be celebrated to-
morrow by Christians Of every race
and cline throughout the habitable
globe. The Catholic Church has al
ways looked upon Easter, next to
Christmas. as the greatest event in
her calendar. On Easter Sunday, as
related by st. Mark, Christ arose
triumphant from the tomb in which
His sacred body was laid. His resur-
rection is an article of Catholic faith
and convincing proof OF the divinity
of Jesus. The gospel narrative is
brief and simple. 1t reads as follows:
MARY Magdalene and Mary, the
mother of James and Salome, bought
sweet spices, that coming, they might
anoiit Jesus. And very early in the
morning. the first day of the week,
they came to the sepulchre, the sun
being now risen. And they said one
the stone from tho door of the sepul-
chre? And looking they saw the stone
rolled back: for 1t was very great.
And entering into the sepulchre they
saw young man sitting at the right
side, clothed with a white robe, ane
they were astonished. Who saith to
| them: Be not affrighted; you seek
Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucitied;
he is risen, he is not here; behold the
place where they laid him. But go,
,, tell his disciples and Peter that He
goeth before you into Galilee; there
you shall see Him as He told you"
| The most eloquent sermons have
been preached on the foregoing words
| from Sacred Writ for twenty centuries.
and they will be heard tomorrow In
many languages in every part of the
Christian world, and continue to be
heard on every recurring anniversary
of the day until the crack of doom
The predominant note in every sermon
on Easter Sunday is the divinity OF
Christ the Goldman. Christ had fore
told that he would rise from the dead
on the third day. He appeared soon
after to his disciples and showed them
his hands and his side. One of them
was absent, and when he was told by
the rest that they had seen the Lord
he declared he would not believe them
until he saw for himself the print of
the nails and put his own hand in the
wounds. Soon after Christ appeared
to them again when Thomas waa
present, and the doubter believed and
exclaimed: My Lord and my God.
Christ, the crucif1ed son of God, re-
manned on earth for 40 days after his
resurrection and then assembled glo-
riously into Heaven where he sits al
the right hand of His Eternal Father
until He comes again to judge the lis
ing and the dead. These truths are
believed by three hundred million
members of the church established by
Christ and His apostles. They are
embodied in its creed. Other Chris
tians who belong not to the Catholic
fold believe them In whole or in part;
