of this day and age have been true to
the faith of our fathers brought to us
from over the seas by the sturdy
pioneers of the bygone days.
We build thee, Oh Cathedral, with
happiness and joy, for we know that
as long as you stand as the mentor of
our life, that so long the stars and
stripes, the emblem Of liberty and
freedom will wave over our beloved
land and equality and freedom and
liberty will be ours to enjoy under the
best Government that the world has
ever produced.
For it is you, Oh Cathedral, and
your compeers in the great cities OF
this, our homeland, that must protect,
uphold and preserve this freeman's
Republic.
Let us resolve to aid this great
work by our united labor and help
that its completion may be fastened

GOVERNOR EBERHART's ADDRESS
Your Grace, Ladies and Gentlemen:
st. Paul ought to be proud of the
monument which you are erecting to
the honor of God. This Cathedral
compares very favorably with those of
the old world and will make our city
known beyond the confines of Ameri-
ca. The Archbishop will share the
glory of st. Christopher Wren who
built st. Paul's in London, and of him,
as of Wren, it may be said: IF you
seek his monument, look around you''
Not only that, but his influence for
good is a potent factor in city and
state. I was present at the corner
stone laying of the Cathedral and
while / viewed the procession as it
passed by was struck with the
thought that the religion of these men
was a power and influence for good
in the land.
The growth of such institutions
means much for the upbuilding and
betterment of citizenship. 1t will help
to solve in large measure the ques-
tons of public welfare involving so
much of selfishness. I do not think
so much of the Cathedral as of the in.
fuence it will exert in st. Paul and in
Minnesota. It's conservation will
mark another milestone in the path.

and brotherhood which seems to be

SENATOR GOLFERS ADDRESS.
Your Grace, Ladies and Gentlemen:
1t is a pleasure and an honor to
be accorded the privilege of address
ing this tremendous gathering here
this evening, when you have listened
to and been edited by the splendid
lecture and charmed by the eloquent
words of the preceding speakers, but
why was chosen as one of the speak
ers this evening, when you have heard
and will listen to orators of State and,
I may well say, National renown, is
past my understanding, unless it be to
emphasize by comparison and contrast
the broad Catholicity of our Church
and the democracy of this gathering
in that, while in the Church there
is always room for saint and sinner,
so here on this platform there is room
for orator and rube.
I am proud that 7 am an American
citizen, that | owe allegiance to the
stars and stripes, proud am I that
am of the faith which, from the day
of it's birth on Calvery's heights, has
illumined and frightened all the CEN
turtles gone before; and my heart is
filled with delight and satisfaction
that it has been my fortunate lot to
be native son of the magnificent
North Star State and Of the great
Archdiocese of st. Paul. So then, my
friends, | come to you this evening
from my fireside in the country, away
from the lights, and glitter, the glamor
and pulsing life of this mighty city.
l come from the stiffness and quietude
of the country to rejoice with you
upon what has been accomplished to
this day under the guidance of our
great Archbishop in the building of
our Cathedral, and to determine with
you that ceaseless shall be the labor

The work of tearing down the Kilt
son house began in 1905. The first
contract for grading and excavating
was let in the summer of 1906 to
Lauer Bros, who, later on, were sue
cessful in securing the contract for
the foundation.
On Sunday afternoon, June 2, 1907,
the cornerstone was laid in presence
of an assemblage larger in numbers
and more distinguished in it's repre-
sentatives of Church and State,
than ever signalized any other event
in the history of the Northwest.
The parade of 10000 Catholic men,
representing every parish in the Arch
diocese and some from adjoining do
ceses, was the largest in the civic life
of st. Paul. The celebration drew
more people to ST. Paul than ever be-
fore journeyed cityward in one day.
st. Paul was the Mecca of an army of
Catholics who came to witness the
browning act of fifty years of effort
from the days of pioneer missionary
endeavor among, the scattered inhab-
itants of Minnesota to the present
time The solemn event made an ap-
peal to all Christians who realize that
the founding of such an edif1ce is SYM
bolic of religious growth no less than
of the fervor of those who claim it as
the visible monument to their faith in
God. Four archbishops, a score OF
bishops, hundreds of priests and SEM
inarians viewed the parade and parti-
cipated in the ceremonies incident to
the cornerstone laying. Bishop McGol-
rick of Duluth, officiated at the plac-
ing of the cornerstone in position and
the Most Reverend Archbishop preach
ed the sermon on the occasion.
At the conclusion of the religious
observances, men prominent in the
state and nation dwelt on the signih-
canoe of the celebration from civic
and patriotic point of view. Address
es were delivered by Judge E. w: Ba-
lille, chairman of this portion of the
program; Hon. Robert A. Smith,
Mayor of St. Paul; Hon. John A. John
son, Governor of Minnesota; Hon.

HON.. r. D. o'BRIEN's ADDRESS.

Your Grace, Ladies and Gentlemen:
Christianity was given to humanity
not only to make men and women
better, but to make them happier. An
unfailing characteristic of rational and
true religion, therefore, is joyousness.
It was not intended by the Creator
that we should be unhappy even while
on this earth. On the contrary one
underlying principle of Christianity
is that belief in, and reliance upon it,
will afford consolation for the ills and
sorrows to which humanity is subject.
So we find that the great Christian
leaders have been great optimists;
men who believed that all things We're
ordered for the best; that the good
predominated over the bad. Had they
not been divinely inspired with op-
timism the twelve Apostles would
never have undertaken to carry out
the divine command to preach the
gospel to all the nations and so
throughout history the same spirit has
always been manifested by those who
have accomplished great things. 1t is
because Christian philosophy was in
tended to inspire hope and joy and
gratitude in human hearts, that we
find the great masterpieces of music
whose harmonies have filled continent
after continent, have been inspired by
religion; and that the genius of the
sculptor, the architect or the painter
has reached it's climax only when ex
erted under the same inspiration; and
thus from the beginning of Christian
ity until today it's message has been
one of hope and joy both for this
world and the next.
How natural, and fully in accord
with the teachings of history, it is
therefore, that we should gather here
tonight to triumphantly celebrate the
inception and progress of great work
so sentient with this spirit. From
what we have seen this evening we
can predict that the completion O
the Cathedral of st. Paul viii. make
it the architectural triumph of Amer
lea. And beautiful as our City of st
Paul now is, it will be increased {:
hundred fold, when the graceful SWEEP
of Summit Avenue is crowned by THU
stately dome.

The execution of this work, OF
course, was conceived by the genius
of our great Archbishop, who with all
his other attributes, is the embodi-
ment of Christian optimism, but his
hands cannot lay the courses of gran
lite, nor his means furnish the marble
columns for the Cathedral. This is
your work and already you have shown
that in the near future it will be per-
formed. And SO each child who con-
tributes a penny; each youth or maid
en- who gives dollar, and each widow
who contributes her mite, shares
equally in the honor and glory and
benefit which will come to all from
the completion Of this great work.
So I repeat. what after all is mere
ly paraphrasing what the Archbishop
has already said this evening, that
without detracting in the least from
the credit due him, the completion of
the Cathedral must be because OF the
united action of the many.
HON. PIERCE BUTLER's ADDRESS.
Your Grace, Ladies and Gentlemen:
The welfare of the State is un-
doubtedly promoted by the teachings
of religion. The laws of the State di-
rect and control the objective, or ex-
ternal, acts of the people, but the sub
jective, or inner, life of the individ-
ual may be better illumined and more
effectually controlled by moral precept
than by statute law.
Religion inculcates the right. 1t
promotes love of justice which binds
men together in fraternal bond and
fixes allegiance to eternal truth. With
out it, there cannot be perfection OF
Government in the Republic.
Patriotism, therefore, bids all to aid
in the advancement of religion.
Religion Is apt to 1anguish and slip
away, IL unaided by external ordinan-
ces and authoritative calls to wor-
ship. It's house ought to be in keep
