Indignation and alarm all over the
United States. The facts are:
1. The delay of the steamereat
quarantine was for reasons of ravi-
cation and unloading.
2. Mr.. Bonzano is not apostolic
delegate to the United States, but
apostolic delegate to the Catholic
church in the United States-a mat
ter wholly different. There is not
now, never has been, and, if the
Menace and the Guardians Of Lib
erty remain unsurpassed, never will
be delegate from the Vatican to
the United States.
3. The president tartly denies
that he sent any message by wire
less or otherwise to Mr.. Benzano.
Many papers, even in the far west,
printed this dispatch accompanied
but cut Of Mr.. Bonzano, which had
been sent out, gratis, in advance.
The cost of these cuts and their.
transmission must have been con-
siderable. This affair and other re-
lated matters have put the blunder-
ing Hierarchy and it's press bureau,
even though, perhaps, not respon-
sible for the dispatch above quoted,
in bad very bad, with the poIiti-
clans Of both parties, who now real
ize that it's attentions are about as
safe and desirable as the embrace
OF a smallpox patient, and that the
antebellum political belief, Dad
Luck Near Catholics" has a sub
stantial foundation in fact.
In return for many favors from
President Taft, the Catholic Hierar-
chy and it's press bureau, and the
Catholic press of the country, have
almost certainly placed him in a pre-
d1cament fatal to his hopes Of re-
election, from which all the COM
bined wealth and acuteness OF his
managers can hardly extricate him.
That his Overwhelming crushing de-
feat in November is assured is al
most the unanimous belief of news.
paper men.
A determined effort, however, will
be made to rehabilitate the presi-
dent in the eyes of the great Pro
testant anti-CathOlic majority, and
money, newspaper space and influ-
ence will not be spared in a desDer-
ate attempt to accom- lish that end.
What can the president do to
square himself with the Protest
ants? What will the selfish, poIiti-
cally-blind Catholic Hierarchy and
its bungling press agents do to him
next; and what will the Hierarchy
do to Governor Wilson and his cam
paign? These are the absorbing
questions Of the hour in newspaper
and political circles. Significant and
perhaps startling developments are
certain within q few weeks.
The great Protestant, anti-Catho-
lie majority has been relying upon
the powerful bishops Of Methodfsm
to protect its interests at Washing

ton and to resist the encroachments
OF the Hierarchy; but in the case
o. the Indian school and in several
other important matters during the
past four years they appear to have
been woefully neglectful of the trust
reposed in them. have the Metho-
dist bishops been asleep? What do
the people pay them for, if not to
guard Protestant rights and preserve
the foundations Of religious and civ
il liberty? Is it not higl time for
all the bishops Of Professionalism to
wake up and get into the political
game where their talents as organic
ers and effective public speakers
may be of great service to the ma
ton in the peril that now confronts
it?-The Menace, Saturday, August

A USEFUL LITTLE LANTERN.

Put into a strong, clear glass bot
tie with a tight cork or a screw top
2 piece of phosphorus about as large
as a bean. (Be careful in handling
it, as it is very poisonous and infam-
mable.) Heat pure olive oil for ff-
teen minutes, but do not let it boil.
Fill the bottle one-third full and
cork tightly. The upper part will
give a good light. If it should be
dim, uncork to admit air, and cork
again and the light will brighten.
This lantern will last five or six
months. It is small, cheap, safe and
always lighted, ready for use.
