When questioned as 10 what would

Mr.. Bryan replied that it would be

that, according to Mr. Bryan, the

cutive an ovation second only to that

he denies that he nourishes aspira-

candidate for the presidency will in

Very little of definite nature was
accomplished by the Harmony ban
quet." Aside from permitting the
speakers an opportunity of airing
their views before a representative
audience, the party has not benefited
by the gathering-unless, of course,
the private conference about which

gravity is such necessary safeguard
that it ought not to be tempered with.
There is no doubt but that the BIZ
cameral form of government is safer
than single chamber government.
History has proven that the check and
balance system is the most efficient
in the long run. But unless the peo-
pie have the privilege of choosing the
members of both bodies it is neces-
sary for democratic government that
some limit be put on the power of
the hereditary house. That is all that
the democracy of Great Britain de-
mands at the present time and if that

SUPERIOR, WIS.

A pretty wedding took place Thurs
day morning, June LIST, at Sacred Heart
cathedral when Miss Dora Lepine,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. D. Lepine,
Hughitt avenue, and John Connolly of
this city were united in marriage, Rev.
Father Owens officiating. The bride
was given in marriage by her father.
She was gowned in white satin, wore
bridal veil and carried prayer book.
Her bridesmaid, Miss Katherine Clyne,
wore gown Of lavender colored mar
quisette, large picture hat and car
ried bouquet of white roses. Thomas
Connolly of St. Paul, a brother of the
groom, acted as best man. During the
service the adult and children's choirs
sang. Sister Eleanor presided at the
organ. After the ceremony a wedding
breakfast was served at the home of
the brides parents. Covers were laid
for 20 guests, the table decorations
were purple lilacs. Miss Anna Rooney
and Miss Genevieve Moran assisted in
serving the guests. Mr.. and Mrs. Con-
molly left on the afternoon train for
the Twin Cities and La Crosse where
they will spend their honeymoon, and
on their return will make their home

DIED AT ANOKA
William T. Casey Passes Away After
Several Weeks illness.

William L. Casey, only son of Sher-
if and Mrs. John Casey, died Satur-
day afternoon, May 81, of typhoid fever
after several weeks illness, says the
Anoka Union of the 31st ult.
William Casey was born in Fridley,
May %, 1856, and when a baby came
with his parents to Anoka to live,
where he attended school, and lately
entered the livery business with his
father.
August 90, 1909, he was married to
Miss Margaret Sanders, and his wife
and seven months old baby survive
him.
The funeral services were held from
st. Stephens church Monday morning
at ten o'clock, requiem high mass being
sung by Rev. oliver Dolphin, who spoke
words of consolation to the sorrowing
wife, parents and sisters. Miss Lucy
Guth sang Lead Kindly Light" and
Nearer My God to Thee"
The church was crowded to capacity
and the funeral cortege was one Of
the largest ever seen in Anoka. The
A. O. H. of which he was member,
attended in a body. He was also a
member of the M. w. A.
Will Casey was known to a great
many people in Anoka and vicinity,
and he was a fayOrite because of his
kindly nature and geniality. 1t was
said of him that he did not have an
enemy, and his close friends were
many. He always had cheerful word
of greeting, and his death caused many
sincere grief. The sympathy of all
goes out to the bereaved ones. Some
idea of the regard in which he was
held, could be told by the beautiful
floral tributes given in such lavish pro-
fusion.

ONE CORPORATIONS FAIRNESS.


On March, II of the present year
fourteen men were killed in the Nor
man mine at Virginia, Minnesota.
The mine is the property of the Oil
yer Mining Company. At the time
of the unfortunate disaster an inves-
tigation showed that no blame at
tached to the company in the way of
criminal negligence. 1t was the re-
suit. of unfortunate circumstances for
which no one could be held respon-
sible
The relatives of the victims of the
disaster ut first threatened to fly to
the courts for redress. But at the
suggestion of the officials Of the COM
pany, action was stayed and though
less than three months have elapsed
since the accident took place, all
claims have been settled by the Oil
yer Mining Company in way that
commends generous approval.
The heirs of the men who were
killed in the Norman mine have all
received the maximum amount pro-
vided by law, which is $4,000 in each
case. In providing for the care of
the children of one of the victims the
officers Of the company have shown
themselves considerable far beyond
expectation. Paul Paulson, who met
death in the unfortunate disaster, left
seven orphans whose ages range from
two to twelve years. In addition to
giving these children $4,000, the COM
pany has paid up all claims against
the Paulson home and all other debts
outstanding so that the $4,000 will be
entirely for the use of the children.
And as a further consideration each
child will receive from the company
an allowance of ten dollars per month
until he or she is eighteen years of
age. BY this arrangement the chill
dren will be enabled to receive a
high school education.
For their generous consideration of
the rights and needs of their unfor
tunate employees who were the vic
tins of the Norman mine disaster, the
managers of the oliver Mining Com
pany deserve full credit. 1t was
considerate act.

TO SUPPORT CATHOLIC PRESS

~ SUPPORT CATHOLIC PRESS.
The Seventh Annual Convention of
the state federation of Catholic So
ceties of Kansas was held last week.
AS might be expected, one of the
principal topics discussed was the i'm
portance and need of the Catholic
press. A good deal of weight was
attached 10 this phase of Catholic en-
deavor, as the following extract from
the published minutes of the meeting
will show:
ut is deplorable fact that many
Catholic homes have as yet no Cath
olic paper. Should this mean that
many Catholics have no love for
knowing anything about Catholic af-
fairs, about news concerning the
Church in this and other countries?
Why should the Catholic press, so
strongly recommended by the high
est authorities of the Church be al
ways left in struggling condition?
Why would our people, the individual
family, and the masses as whole,
prefer to be left uneducated on Cath
olic affairs of vital Importance? Con-
sidering these unfortunate conditions
let it be resolved:
First, That this Federation take up
the question of the Catholic newspa-
per.
Second, That every man attending
the convention promise to take at
least one Catholic paper.
Third, That on his return to his re-
spective parish every one of us agi-
tate most zealously that his Catholic
neighbor take one until no family can
be found in his locality who is with
out Catholic newspaper
Fourth, That at the next annual
convention every delegate report the
number of subscriptions he secured
for the Catholic paper"
The convention must be given cred
it for having the right intention. But
an intention is not everything. Active
work must be done to convince Cath
olcs that the Catholic paper is for
them and that their welfare as mcm-
bers of the One True Church is one
with the welfare Of every other Cath
Ollie in the land.
The Catholic paper is doing mis-
sionary work as effective as any that
is being donesin any other way If it
is not as efficacious in gaining con-
verts as the living voice it is at least
efficacious in retaining them. 1t
should be recommended more from
the pulpit than it is.

A MERITED HONOR,

The magnificent demonstration
which was held in Baltimore on Tues.
day in honor of Cardinal Gibbons was
an event of which Catholics through
out the land may be justly proud. For
a man to assert the faith that is in
him, to defend and promote the work
Of the church he loves. and, while &C
complishing his task, win and keep
the admiration of his fellow citizens
of all creeds, is feat that none but
gifted, truly Christian and broad
and generous hearted man can do.
Cardinal Gibbons has done it and his
labors have won their merited recog.
milton.
1t is we'll that the Church can count
among her workers men of the type
of Cardinal Gibbons. 1t is good for
the Church that the high ideals of her
foremost workers are recognized and
Landed by public officials of all creeds
Cardinal Gibbons Is a type of what
Catholicity aims at making all it's ad.
herents. His broad sympathies, his
deep faith, his love for all men are
marks of the true Christian. If the
celebration in Baltimore does nothing
more than dispel prejudice by giving
Catholicity fairer hearing it will not
be in vain.
To few men 10 1t given to hear
their own deeds extolled by sincere
admirers Of such high rank in the ma.
ton. And yet few there are who have
done such gallant service during such
a long period of years as Cardinal Glib
bons. If then he has been exception
ally honored it can truly be said that
it is because he is an exceptional man

FROM DULUTH

The first passenger boat to arrive
in the local harbor was the Harmonic,
of the Northern Navigation company
which came in at 9 o'clock Saturday
morning, bringing about fifty passen-
gers from Sarnia, Ont. She left again
that afternoon at o'clock with about
the same number of passengers for
the Canadian port. This marks the
opening of a passenger season which
promises to be the busiest in the his
tory of this port. The trip was made
without mishap, and while the weather
on the lakes was cold and somewhat
disagreeable, still the passengers re-
ported that they enjoyed it.
Next Friday the steamer Octorara of
the Anchor line will arrive in Duluth
from Buffalo, which port she will leave
next Tuesday. Following the arrival
of this boat, many others of different
lines will be coming to Duluth, and
the tourist season will be in full swing.
Father e. j. Walsh, for the past sew
en- years pastor of the st. Rose Catho.
olic Church, Proctor, was given fare

lRELAND,s JUSTIFICATION,

No nation has ever waged war
against deadly enemy with more
justification on it's side than Ireland
has in it's present struggle for the
curtailment of the power Of the House
of Lords. In the light of history Ire
land would be fully justified in de-
manding the complete humiliation of
the upper House in its present form.
But to that extreme the Irish Party
does not wish to go. They simply de-
mand a reform whereby the Peers
will not have unlimited power to re-
ject wholesome legislation.
And why should not the power of that
body be curtailed. for has it not act
ed as a dead weight for submberging
every democratic measure that has
been proposed for Ireland during the
last hundred years? When the Cath
olic Relief Bill was proposed the
Lords opposed it until they say that
further resistance would mean civil
upheaval. In accordance with their
chronic habit of refusing Ireland any
thing and everything that was in
tended for the betterment of that
country, they opposed land drainage
for sixteen years. In 1888 they ere.
ated an agitation against the bill pro.
viding for Irish national education,
which resulted in the withdrawal of
that measure. In 1885 the population
of Ireland was 100000 and the num-
Der of voters 60,0O0--or seven-tenths
of one per cent of the total popula-
ton! And even then the House of
Lords could see no reason why there
should be a reform and it required
forty years Of persistent agitation to
open their eyes to the necessity of a
change in the franchise law for Ire
land. The same noble assemblage of
blue-blooded aristocrats steadfastly
opposed compensation for tenants i'm
provements in Ireland for quarter
of century. In like manner they
refused the abolition of church rates
for eleven years. In 1868 they threw
out the resolutions for the disestab.
lishment of the Irish church. For
three successive years they refused
to pass the bill for the abolition of
university tests. When the Irish
Church Bill was sent up to them in
1869 they mutilated it to such an ex-
tent as to cause prolonged dissention
between the two Houses. They re.
fused in 1870 to pass the Land Act as
it came from the House of Commons
but instead insisted on the right to
evict tenants, They rejected the bill
providing for compensation for dis
turbance by large majority and
thereby contributed to the cause of
crime and anarchy. When it came
to pass the Perpetual Coercion Bill
for Ireland the Peers acted with rec
ord haste, disposing of the bill practi-
cally at a single sitting, but amended
the Land Act passed by the House of
Commons the same year (1SS7) so as
to practically defeat its purpose. In
1893 Home Rule Bill passed the
House of Commons only to be reject
ed by the Peers.
From. these few typical examples
taken from many others of equal i'm
port one may Judge the logical atti-
tude the Irish people should take to-
ward the English House Of Lords,

Bishop Gibbons was appointed coad-
jutor with the right of succession to
the late Archbishop Bayley of Balti-
more. He was installed archbishop at
the cathedral in this city Feb. 10, 1878.
In 1887 he received the red hat of the
cardinalate in Rome at the hands Of
Pope Leo XIII.
