A BISHOPS TRIBUTE
To the Irish Party-Has Helped the
Cause Of Education.

The Bishop of Clifton (the Right
Rev. Dr. Burton), speaking at the lay
ing of a foundation stone of a new
Catholic school at Bristol, paid a
most cordial tribute to the services
which the Irish Party have rendered
to the cause Of Catholic education IL
this country. Referring to the rea-
sons which gave Catholics courage
and hope for the future of their
schools, his Lordship said there had
been another reason for which he
thought they should be thankful rs
Catholics, and it was the way in which
their claims had been met in Parlia-
ment. He did not speak as a Con-
servative or Liberal, or a Radical.
but as a Catholic especially, but he
felt bound to render that public testi-
mony for the way in which their edu-
cation had been impressed upon leg
islators by legislators from Ireland.
But for those so or so solid votes fo:
the Catholics Of England where would
they be now?

to New York. where they will assist
in the dedication of St Patrick's ca
thedral, which has recently been
cleared of debt of 100000. The
three cardinals who attend the con-
gress are expected to take part and
every bishop in the United States has
been invited to he present by Arch
bishop Farley, head of the New York
archdiocese. A most elaborate pro-
gram is being arranged.

is colonization. Hardly was the land
open to white men, before Archbishop
Ireland started half a dozen of Cath
olic colonies; and he has continued
his work of caring for the incoming
Catholic to this day.
The settlements have multiplied a
hundredfold. The need of six new
bishops is proof of his success
Through colonization the Catholics
grouped in centers were taken care of,
and the result is ten bishops and 500
priests in Minnesota and Dakota. The
western and northern dioceses of
Lead, Bismarck, Crookston, and Du-
luth are not thickly settled but they
have bishops to direct their settle
ment. This is according to the prac-
tice of the Apostles, who appointed
bishops to form the churches. These
new bishops are missionary bishops.
The Right Reverend Bishop Wehrle
writes: "At my installation I will
have a congress of Catholic laymen
and Catholic societies: and colonial
tion will be one of the matters to be
discussed" The whole province is
organized for colonization under Bish-
op James McGolrick of Duluth No
Catholic will be lost there if they are
willing to follow the hierarchy.
The Northerners who take naturally
to the Northwest are diminishing as
an element of our immigration. Their
places are being taken by the virile
Slavs and the refined Latins of south
ern Europe. The South, which con-
tains more cheap lands than any other
part of the Union today, is the nat
ural home of these newcomers If
the South follows the example of the
Northwest it can easily add $4,000
new Catholics to it's population each
year. This would call for more bish-
ops, more priests. more Catholic or
ganizations. Beyond doubt, if such
organization paves the way, the popu-
lation will inevitably follow.
Two things should be done at once.
Bishops in Southern Europe should be
informed of all places in the South
ern States where new lands are avail
able within reach of churches where
provision has been made for the souls
of the immigrants. Many such places
exist in the South already, but how
are the immigrants, intent on their
own economic betterment, expected to
learn where these places are? Sec
ondly, industrial villages under the
supervision of Catholic priests should
be established in Southern mining and
numbering towns for the spiritual AMI
material guidance of those immigrants
who have to earn some money before
they can start farming.
In the East, we are conserving our
big battalions by adding industrial anl
agricultural schools under direct
Catholic management to our ordinary
educational equipment, by social set
Elements, vacation schools, etc.
We are further getting something

tion on the various secular agencies

CANDIDATE FOR :.
GOVERNOR TALKS
c. A. JOHNSON TELLS ABOUT
THE ALLEGED CONFERENCE
AT A BISMARCK HOTEL.

Minot, N. D., Aug. 27.--In regard to
| the report which has been widely Cir
culated among the democratic organs
throughout the state, that G. A. John
son, republican nominee for governor
Of North Dakota. held an extended
conference at a Bismarck hotel, Mr..
johnson said today:
YES, / met Alex Mckenzie in Bis
marck in the same capacity as / met
q large number OF other residents OF
Bismarck, and as / am meeting a
large number of people about the
state. AS a free American citizen
believe that I have the right to meet
talk and shake hands with any and all
people that l may meet, and state
further that whether after next No

Dakota or merely a private citizen,
shall be glad to meet and talk with

needy, or any other citizen OF North
Dakota. no matter in what station in
life he may be. AS the republican
nominee for governor of this state,
honor which was conferred upon me
by the people, and not by any one
man, I believe that it is not only my
privilege but also my duty to talk
with all the voters that ! may meet
during this campaign.
THE reported details Of my alleged
visit with Mckenzie, however, are en-
tirely false. The statement that I
arrived in Bismarck on the same train,
that / had an extended conference
with Mr. Mckenzie at a hotel that 7
went out driving with him and Mr..
Poole and that we met in accordance
with q pre-arranged plan, are a tissue
of falsehood.
II have that faith in the people to
whom owe my nomination that their
vote will not be Influenced by the mis-
representations and the efforts Of the
democratic organs to cause my defeat.

PENNILESS and
HALF STARVED
FIVE LITTLE CHILDREN AND MO.
THEIR RECEIVE AID BY PoPU-
LAR SUBSCRIPTION

Monango Journal One of the most
pathetic cases of poverty that has
come TO our attention in this state OF
plenty was revealed at Merricourt last
week. A family oy che name Of Mar
quette with Ave little children the old
est 10 years and the youngest q
months old, were found to be abso-
lutely penniless and suffering for want
OF the necessaries of life. None OF the
children had shoes or stockings and
barely enough rags on to cover their
starved little bodies. The mother is
an invalid and barely strong enough
to speak and only had on thin skirt
and an old coat to cover herself. 1t
seems the family had been living on
claim in the hills but no one seems
to have known of them or the difficult
ties they were in. The mother has
been sick for long time and became
worse from the date Of the little baby'S
birth for lack of proper care and med
ical attention. Since then she has been
unable to be UP and the little S-yea1-
old daughter has had all the care of
the baby while the father has nursed
his wife as best he could. Last week
he took the family to Cakes and the
mother was placed in the county ward
of the cakes hospital. but Thursday
he brought them back to Merricourt.
Not having a place in the world to go,
kind Merricourt people took them in
and furnished them with clothing ano
food. They wanted to go to Wiscon-
sin where they expected to find re-
lief, SO J. o. Glenn, the big-hearted
merchant of Merricourt went out with
subscription paper and raised over
$40 to send them on their way. The
mother was not expected to live TO
reach her destination.
Just why the father did not inform
someone of his circumstances or seek
help sooner, or who is to blame for
the sad state OF affairs is noe known.
| It seems strange that family should
be reduced to such abject poverty in
community where the people gener-
ally are so we'll off and work plenti-
| full But without the facts no one can
judge. Anyhow. Merricourt people
certainly did the christian act without
| question.

HOLMES VICTIM
OF BOXCAR THUGS
SEEMS ONLY PLAUSIBLE sOLU-
TON OF MYsTERY-FuNERAL
AT MARVEL YESTERDAY.

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 26.-No
new developments have transpired
which would tend to throw additional
light upon ths manner in which Ru-
dolph Holmes of Marvel. .csrne to his
death last Saturday nigh2 or Sunday
morning, but Grand Forks authorities
who have been investigating the case
are firmly convinced that he met his
fate at the hands of the apparently
well organized band Of box car toughs
engaged in working along the Great
Northern between this city and Devils
Lake.
Holmes, it is believed, was beaten
and robbed and thrown from a NOV
ing freight train in just such man
ner as two other men have been dealt
with within the last three weeks. That
he boarded lie freight train as re-
suit of suggestions made by men hay-
ing designs upon his purse also seems
quite certain. and that these men had
intimate knowledge OF the running
times of freights H. and out Of Grand
Forks also appears to be a settled
fact.
Absence of any money or means Of
Identification upon the person of
Holmes when found strengthens the
theory of murder. Farmers coming
TO Grand Forks in the manner that
Holmes came here are not in the
habit Of using freight trains in return
ing home, and this would be especial
ly true when the freights leave dur
ing the middle of night or very early
in the morning.
On SatuI day night there were two
west bound freights out of Grand
Forks on the Great Northern, one
leaving at about midnight and the
other departing at about o'clock. 1t
would have been an easy matter for
thugs to have become acquainted with
Holmes in Grand Forks or East Grand
Forks Saturday evening and, learning
that he resided at Marvel and that he
might be anxious TO return home. sug-
gest the freight train. Once aboard
the train and in box car the, accom-
plishment of the robbery would be an
easy matter, and to throw Holmes
from the train would be merely fol-
lowing out the practice seemingly
adopted by the thugs working along
the Great Northern line west of here.
No Trace Found Here.
Absolutely no trace of Holmes hav-
ing been in Grand Forks can be
found. The MARVEL party that went to
Larsrnore Thursday morning to iden-
tiEy the remains was In Grand Forks

SOME WHEAT YIELDS.

Lisbon Free Press: The threshing
crews are at work all over the county,
and while Ransom has the best show
ing OF any as to results and far bet
ter than the average counties, yet the
yield is quite spotted after all. Some
small areas OF summer fallowed
ground have produced twenty to
twenty-five bushels per acre, while
there are sections where the yield will
only average ten bushels. some being
as low as even three bushels per acre,
which renders the average below nor
NAL, but the grade is fine and the kerr
nels are plump. Reports are all the
way from three to twenty bushels per
acre, but the average may not be over
seven bushels for the entire county.
Page Record: A shortage Of 100000
bushels Of wheat from the amount
yearly shipped from the Page elevators
is the prediction of those who keep in
close touch with the local wheat ques-
ton.
Considerable threshing has been
done the past week and the results,
are very disappointing. An average Of
five bushels to the acre seems to be a
fair estimate. Some localities will
fall below this, particularly that portion
to the east and north OF town, where
threshing has been on the jump. The
yield in this section is running around
two and three bushels, mostly Maca-
roni. This wheat was considerably
damaged by hail.
Portions Of the north and to the west
and south Jared a trifle better in most
OF the returns, where yields of from
four to ten and even as high as nine
teen bushels are reported. There was
more Blue Stem raised In this section,
which did better thir year than did
either the Macaroni or Velvet Chaff.
We presume one reason for this is
that large percentage of the Blue
Stem was planted on corn ground and
summer fallow while the other varie-
ties were mostly on old wheat land.
An extensive farmer to the north.
reports yield Of nine bushels on his
summer fallow, while the old land will
about yield the seed. This is about
the way it runs in ali of the north
western and western localities.
