remove the clauses disqualifying them
from the right of holding office in the
organization? We think not, and here
are our reasons: The Y. NJ. G. A., &C.
cording to its own constitution, pro.
fesses Ito be engaged in the Sayior's
service" or, in other words, to be pro-
noting the cause of religion. Its Off
GERS must publicly avow their faith in
Jesus, the Redeemer, as divine and
testify their faith by becoming and
remaining members OF churches held
to be evangelical" Now who can
conceive of a person who is seri-
ously and strongly attached to par
ticular church remaining perfectly
non-sectarian in conducting the bust
ness of an organization the purpose of
which is to promote religion? Can a
Baptist or Methodist or Universal.
list who realizes that missionary work
ought to be done in a certain field be
Indifferent as to the denomination of
the missionary that is to be sent into
that field?
When young man reaches the use
OF reason he remains in the church in
which he was baptized or accepts the
doctrines of another church because
he believes that church teaches the
true faith, and consequently he prefers
that church above all the others. Ger
talnly no serious minded person who
has studied. the teachings of the vari.
GUS sects and taken note of their con.
f1icting doctrines can remain indiffey
ent as to what choice he will make.
That goes without saying. If then
such a person is elected to position
III an organization which processes to
foster religion it is utterly impossible
to conceive of him as being indiffer
ent in the matter Of creeds. If he
would be Indifferent he would not be
true to his own convictions. Hence.
the inevitable conclusion that an or.
ganlzatlon made up of various creeds
and doing religious work can be nom
sectarlan is inconceivable. If an hon.
est Methodist is in power the en-
phasis will be on Methodism; if a
Presbyterian, it will incline toward
Presbyterianism; and if a Catholic
toward Catholicism. And necessarily
So
Again the principle Of putting all
creeds Oh the same footing is one that
Catholics cannot accept. If they were
to acquiesce in that the next thing
would be to applaud the work of the
Methodist mission in Rome, or if dis
approval could be made at all it would
have to be on the ground that the enc
mics OF the Catholic Church were car
rying on competition contrary to the
rules of propriety.
II the Y. M. c. A. wants to claim TO
be non-sectarian it ought to repeal the
clauses in its constitution which at
present disqualify Catholics and 9th
ers from the right to hold Office. Then
Catholics can offer no objections to
its procedure. But even then there
does not seem to be any good reason
why they should flock to its support

HELPING THE CAUSE
Numerous St. Patrick's Day Speeches
Sound Note of Victory.

The st. Patrick's Day we have just
nature Of first-rate time for the
Homo Rule cause. The Irish leaders
have been speaking right, left, and
centre in Great Britain, and the cause
; of Irish freedom has been very much
alive in all parts of the world, says the
Weekly Freeman (Dublin). How ir-
have killed the cause of Home Rule
so often; they have left it, according
to themselves, so frequently as dead as
poor Queen Anne; they have given
such assurances to the British people
and all whom it might corcern that
the Irish question was settled fo:. all
and wormWood to them to find that
every time they have said they thought
Home Rule was killed, Home Rule
turned up more vigorously, more ag-
gressively, more potently than ever.
The indestructable Irish cause and the
! unconquerable Irish race we today en-
joy the discontinue of all the prophets
| of evil. The cause of Irish Nation
hood was killed by Pitt andCastlereagh.
The cause was killed again, many
thought, by the granting Of Catholic
Emancipation. Surely little bit Of
Cancellation was bound to wean the
Irish from their allegiance to Ireland.
The cause was killed again when o.
Council was cast into prison. The
| Famine next killed the Irish cause
the Famine, for the ravages of which
English statesmen are so substantial
ly responsible The transportation Of
| the Young Irelanders next annihilated
the Irish cause. Then when Gavan
Duffy left Ireland as a corpse on the
dissecting table, surely any common
sense enemy of Ireland might well
| have concluded that her cause was
gone. Then when the Fenians were
sentenced and the Manchester Martyrs
handgcd, the cause was finally disposed
of. So the d:eary tale of baffled tyran
ny and rotten prophecy might be car
| ried on into our own days. But no!
The Irish cause was not killed, not
even seriously injured at any of the
epochs enumerated. 1t survived the
Coercion period, just as it survived the
pitch-cap period. You can't kill a ma
ton unless you have the desperate,
bloody daring to practise the Herodian
method on the nations children, and
succeed in carrying out that method

N|DDLEMEN GET PROFIT
A Kansas Investigation Places
Blame for High Cost
OF Living
Special to the Daily Leader.

Topeka, Kan June 20,--J H.
Mercer, state live stock sanitary
commissioner and secretary of the
Kansas Live Stock association, has
completed the investigation of the
cost of living probDem. He gave
out long statement today, showing
The figures he had obtained No
comment vas made on the figures,
except to show that in some in
stance the retailers were making as
. high. as 100 per cent profit on some
Of the meats sold
The investigation was started to
show that the producers were not
wholly responsible for the high
prices of meats. The average prices
paid stockmen for cattle was $i6S
a hundred pounds, hogs $6 and sheep
s4.4S From the price lists quoted
by the packers it was shown that the
packers were selling beef at IL
cents pound. pork at IL cents for
shoulders TO ~ cents pound for
fancy breakfast bacon and lambs at
~ l-2 cents. The prices quoted by
the packers for this year is is ~
per cent less than on the same date
year ago and the stockmen are
receiving 2S per cent less for their
stock than year ago Then letters
were sent to members of the asso-
citation to get figures from the re-
tailers on the cost to the cousum.
ers The retail prices showed that
steaks were sold on an average Of
20 cents pound roast beef at H.
fresh ham at rs, breakfast bacon at
~ and mutton at 20 cents a pound.
No effort was made by the associ-

meat prices, but II was intended to
