what will undoubtedly prove the great

many millions of dollars in decorating

position all in itself. The two main

columns and crossed at convenient in

@HE United States will celebrate
the opening of the Panama
canal with the greatest expo
n sition in hfstory-the Panama
Pacific International exposition in San
Francisco in 1915.
The nations of the world will join
with America in the celebration. Every
civilized nation on earth and every
country within the sweep of both
shores of the Pacific ocean will be rep
resented at the Panama Pacific Inter-
national exposition by the finest as
sen1blage of displays that the world
has seen.
Plans for the exposition are already
matured, and for the next year the ex-
position authorities will be occupied in
building rather than planning. After
that will come the arrangements for
exhibits and the final touches on pro-
gram of events of world Importance
and interest A notable commission of
architects of national reputation is en-
gagged upon the plans, and within few
weeks first construction work will be-
gin, when grading OF the site and the
building of a sea wall which will serve,
in part. as the basis of magnificent
esplanade along San Francisco harbor

The opening of the Panama canal
will be not only the most important
commercial event in the history of the
world. but II will mark supreme

LANGAN NIGHT.

The large attendance of Division
4, A. o. H., last Monday evening,
due in a great measure to their in
terest in the parade tomorrow, was
a source of pleasure to President
John Hennessy and the other Off
GERS, as talk on the benefits OF the
A. o. II. by James P. Langan, the
we'll known engineer, was one of the
best Hibernian addresses ever heard
locally. Mr. Langan stated that In
all his travels he always found the
members OF the A. o. II. TO be the
first In responding TO the principles
OF fraternity and, though allied with
other organizations, the Hibernians
In his opinion not only practiced the
motto Of the order, friendship, unity
and Christian charity, but they were
one OF the greatest bulwarks of the
Catholic church in no matter what
section OF the country. Mr.. Langan's
talk was heartily encored by those
present, and he promised to attend
the meetings whenever his duties
would permit. Two other veteran
members were present, Corporal Pat
Kenealey and Thomas Dignan, and
each delivered a few we'll chosen re-
marks.

NOTICE AND PROFIT.

The Kentucky Irish American
would suggest to the Guardians of
Liberty, the Junior Order and their
kind, that they watch closely the
proceedings and every utterance Of
the Catholic Federation that meets
here next week. Should they do
this they will learn the spirit and
lesson Of true patriotism and loyalty
to God and country and remove from
their hearts the prejudice now exist.
ing therein. The spirit of liberation
and fairness that will characterize
this convention and the great DEM
onstration that will take place to-
morrow should remove every vestige
of hostility that exists against such
a large element of our population
simply because of their religion,
which teaches more than any other
loyalty to God and country. True it
is that the above mentioned societies
are made up of the ignorant, led by
few evil-minded and selfish malcon-
tents, who have neither patriotism
nor principle. But like all such
movements, they will fail when ex-
posed and their discreditable pur-
poses become knowgA The Catholic
4 IlyunDx1nnaeA-r.thes breathe the.
Christian spirit which should prevail
everywhere, and If our suggestion
wore honestly needed all would see
the utter absurdity of the Guardians
and Juniors, which are out Of place
in a free and glorious country like
ours. Again we say watch the
Federation convention, take home to
yourselves its declarations and rec
concentrations, and acting in like
spirit, you will all become better and
more patriotic citizens Of this great,
glorious and free country.

see here will ever remain pleasant

Catholics have been most generous

WHO THEY ARE.

Neither the "Jack Sullivan" or
the paul Kelly" who have been so
frequently mentioned in connection
with the Rosenthal murder case,
have a drop of Irish blood coursing
through their veins. The latter is a
sicnian, who has assumed an Irish
name, to suit his own purposes, and
the former is Jew, who received
from his parents the name Of Jacob
Reich, which he changed to Jack
Sullivan. These are not the only
instances of non-Irish criminals
hiding their identity under Irish
names, which police officials and
court officers well know Thus far
not one identified with the Irish
race has been connected with the
foul murder.

HOPE IN FUTURE.

The belated explanation made to
the Evening Post in its Thursday
issue by Postmaster R. E. Woods,
telling why. several hundred copies
of the Kentucky Irish American OF
July 81 were not delivered until
August Z, and how the missing sack
of papers was found in the head
quarters of the Evening Post, only
emphasizes the fact brought out in
the O'Donnell trial that a change is
needed badly in the local office.
Louisville citizens can console them
selves with the fact that no matter
who is elected, Taft or Wilson, the
present Post Office regime is due to
vacate.

FAITHFUL TO PROMISE.

The vote of the workingman will
be eagerly sought by the politicians
in the coming campaign, but labor
will not be deceived. It's vote will
be cast for the party that has kept
its word. and already the subject is
being given earnest consideration.
What the Democratic party has done
for labor was discussed in the House
last Saturday by Representative
Wilson. Of Pennsylvania. Congress

promise made to labor In the Denver
