THE MISSIONARIES.

We do not realize, says the Los
Angeles "Tidings," the hardships, the
perils, and the lifelong sacrifices of
these holy souls, for we seldom hear
the story of their devotion. And yet
the self-same hardships were endured,
the same sacrifices made that we
might enjoy today the blessings of
our Faith. Was it worth while if we
now fold our hands and say 81 am
content to let God solve this problem
as He will?
Let us rather, with our aims and
our prayers, aid this vanguard of the
army of the Lord, and help them to
give to hungry souls little of the
rich feast He has spread for u.s."

FIRST SCHOOL IN VERAPOLY
INDIA.

The Diocese of Verapoly is a very
important mission of Malabar, and
numbers some seventy-fiye thousand
Catholics scattered over the native
kingdom of Cochin and Travancore.
1t has long been in charge of the Dis
calced Carmelites, the first mission
aries of this Order having visited the
district in 1887.
The first school of any kind in this
we're taught in the vernacular and
English, was founded by the Carmelite
missionaries. Assisted by their bene-
factors in America and Europe they
have been most jealous in increasing
the number of these schools and per-
fecting those already established
Much still remains to be done, how.
ever, for the needs and development
Of the people are constantly ex
tending.
The Papal Seminary at Puttempally
was established by a decree of the
Sacred Congregation of the Propa
ganda in 1890 for candidates to the
priesthood belonging to the Syrian
Rite and residents of these vicariates

of the Carmelite Fathers

A NEEDY MISSION OF THE PHILIP
PINES.

am missionary of the Congrega-
ton of the Sacred Heart and since
November, 1910, have been stationed
at Baewag, in Surigao Province, Do
cese of Cebu, Philippine Islands. The
natives here are Catholics and Agll-
payans. There are nearly three
thousand Catholics and fine hundred
Aglipayans. Of the Catholics, how
ever, only about five hundred come to
Mass on Sunday. The reason for this
negligence are, the peoples ignorance
of their Christian duties. their natural
levity and the wretched condition of
the church edifice which is, in fact,
falling to ruin.
But God had blessed our work here,
and the number of parishioners who
come the the services is constantly
increasing. There are also many
more communions than there were a
wear ago. The children are all fond OF
the missionary. Every morning
have one hundred and fifty children
at catechism class. Some are only
seven years old, others have attained
the age of sixteen or seventeen years.
On Sunday more than two hundred
come to Mass and religious instruc-
ton, In other respects these children
are neglected. They live without any
care or duties, roaming at will on the
mountain or seashore, without moral
training or discipline.
The government provides public
schools, but the Catholic children dc
not like to go to these schools, which
are without religion. What will be
come of these children? The CHIEF
hope of saving them is to gather them
together in Catholic school. To
build Catholic schoolhouse we need
funds and when l arrived here there
was not a cent in the parish's treas
ury. The church was then in a still
worse condition than it is at the
present. There was not decent vest
ment for the use in the celebration o.
the Holy Sacrifice, no ciborium, NJ
ostensorium, and the altar linen:
were very old. Even yet, although
conditions are little improved,
have not been able to obtain a proper
supply of the articles necessary TO-
the divine services. From the natives
l can only expect small contribution
because they are very poor. :,
The United States government il
actively furthering the materia
progress of the Filipinos, but i
American Catholics do not help tn
missionaries in their efforts to in
struct the natives, these poor peopl
will lose their faith. A generation ha
grown up since the United States OF
cupation of the islands and the dc
parture of the Spanish missionaries
l ask the Catholics of the Unite
States, therefore, to help me to repai
my church and to erect an unpretent
ing parochial school in Baewae
Surely they do not wish the Filipino
to become merely civilized heathens
On the contrary, know they desire t
assist these people to become civilize
Catholic Christians.
1 thank the friends of the mission
in advance for the aid feel confiden
they will send me.

are working, with unwearied zeal and
ardor for the training of the ecclesias-

their efforts that the Malabar native
clergy are the most numerous ON the

''Hoss" Race at Whitebird.

They say the horse-racing fever has
broken out in the metropolis of the
Salmon, Whitebird, and that the
town is being divided over the out
come of q race to be held Friday OF
this week. Two horses are matched
for quarter mile dash for purse Of
$500 and a large amount Of side bets
have been made on the outcome Of the
race.
Sam Jones and Wash Schatzer are
the principals in the affair and it is
said Sam has something just about as
fast as creased tightening in the
Snake river cayuse known as "Dixie'
and "Wash" claims his roam mare is
just a little the fastest "hoss" that
ever picked living from the side
hills.
The race will be held on a straight-a
way course two miles from White
bird. All the cattlepunchers will b.
there and a big time is assured.

Rice Secretary.
Riley Rice of Cottonwood was a
seat visitor the first of the
week. Mr.. Rice who is an ardent be-
leiver in the good to be derived from
the organization Of the farmers and is
one of the leading members of the
Farmers Union of Idaho county, re-
Gently returned from Moscow where he
went as delegate to tie Idaho WASH
ington convention of that society.
Mr.. Rice was elected secretary of the
tri-state organization and reports say
that had he signifed his willingness he
could have been elected to the head of
the organization. The meeting at
Moscow was quite well attended and
among other things brought up were
resolutions having for their purpose
the endorsement of certain political
beliefs but were promptly voted down
by the organization, the delegates
wisely holding that when one attempts
to mix religion OF politics with bust
ness, business is quite apt to be the
loser.

Alshie for Governor.

While it is somewhat early to make
political forecasts for 1912 with any
great degree of accuracy if one is to
draw his conclusions as to the choice
Of the republicans of Idaho for guber-
material honors from the expressed
opinion Of the influential papers of that
political faith it would seem as though
Judge Ailshie would be the nominee
of that party in 1912. Judge Alishie
is the strong man Of the republican
party Of Idaho and the selecting Of
him to the head Of the ticket would
do more to unite the party than any
move that could be made. He is
especially strong in the North and
would BY no means be an easy man
to defeat.
In referring TO him in its last
week issue as the logical candidate
of the republican party two years
hence, the Rich6eld Recorder said:
"Judge Alshie Of the supreme
court was passenger on Thursdays
train. on his way up to HALEY to
address the high school graduating
class. He had conditionally accepted
an invitation to come to Richfeld for
the school closing, but it was impos-
sible to do 30 owing to the setting Of
some important cases in the supreme
court at the time the Rich6eld school
closed Judge Ailshie is one Of the
most pleasing speakers in the state,
and the people Of Haily are to be
congratulated upon securing him.
There are a great many people who
believe he is the best candidate in the
state for governor next year, and it ID
not impossible that the demand will
be strong enough, from good men in
all parties, to take him away from the
bench and put him in the executive
chamber. There is no other man in
the state whom the Office of governor
has persistehtly sought or promises to
seek, and the novelty Of such . situa-
ton where there are SO many who are
waiting for the office to come within
hailing distance Of them appeals
strongly in his favor. Meantime, he
has not announced or indicated hii
position, but no man. could we'll resist
the constant and genuine enthusiasm
that has SO far marked the mention
of his name, if it should continue W
to convention time next year. Thu
state would gain All executive heat
with whom friendship that never for
gets is a cardinal virtue; with whom
the mere dollar-chascr' is social ex
crescence; and one who is interested il
the affairs of the state as he is in hi
own. Under the direct primary law
the people have the chance Of thei
lives to initiate movement for tina
sort of an executive-and the indi
cations are that they are going t.
do it."
