The Franco Americans of Crookston
are to be congratulated on acquiring
Father Corbett of Duluth for their first
bishop. He was baptized by the late
Monsignore Ravoux, one of the pio-
neer French missionaries of the North
west, at the romantic village of Men
dota, adjacent to historic Fort Shell
ing. In his teens he went to France
and became proficient in French lit
erature. The Irish Americans will
also feel proud of the new bishop. On
the maternal side he comes from the
Kenricks. noted Irish family that
gave two famous archbishops to the
American Church. The Scandinavians.
Germans, Americans and others will
prize him as most desirable citizen.
He is full of life and activity and a
valuable acquisition to any mixed COM
munity.

Henri Watterson thinks that Roose-
welt is 'the man on horseback" and
that he will try to get third term
if urged by his admirers to stand for
the nomination against Taft. The
friends of Grant wanted a third term
for that great soldier in Republican
convention, but he failed to get the
necessary votes for nomination. If
the Republican party must tramp,e on
a time honored precedent for CAM
didate for the presidency it is in a
sad plight. If Roosevelt is ambitious
for third term he will get left. This
country does not depend on the pre-
carious existence of one man for the
highest Office in the gift of the people.
Taft is preferable to Roosevelt, but
the Republicans do not want him for
another term. The Democrats will
name winner in 1912.

The Indiana Catholic calls the Rev.
DR.. Peter c. Yorke of San Francisco
a brilliant defender of the faith. That
is not saying enough. Father Yorke
demonstrated his ability as contro-
yersialist fifteen years ago when he

coast. We agree with our esteemed
contemporary that Father Yorke's
presentation of the Roosevelt-Vatican
incident should be issued in pamphlet
form and circulated broadcast
