Walsh says. and even if time is re-
CURED and some expense, the foreign
mission cause proposes to go to law 10
enforce its rights and gain the site.
Rather Walsh admits the process may
prove slow one, and states that the
foreign mission seminary work is much
held back and injured by the delay.
Catholics plan, in the seminary, a
novel method in foreign work. So far
as known, it is new. 1t is the accum-

With that fund. as its size warrants,

People, who oppose the, Pro-
gressive movement, have, diligently
sought from the beginning to es
tablishI THE impression that the
Progressive platform is visionary
and impracticable.
: 1t does not matter whether they
are sincere or not i'm their repre+
sentations. But it they are, it
seems certain that they need a
course of instr uction i'm what is
really happening among the other
civilized nations of the world
What would you think, for ex-
ample, of country which owns
and operates all of it's railroads.
it's telegraIhs, it's telephones, and
in which the cities not only own
their street railways and other
public utilities, but also own, and
operate their meat shops, their ba-
keries, their markets, their the
alters, and many of their factories?
What would you think if you were
told that this same nationj insure
at cost all it's laboring people, "a
gaimst sickness and nohH employ
ment, paying them sick benefit
when incapacitated for work and
"a fixed income when unable to
get work? Or that it takes care
of iIta widows and orphans in the
same way, and pays a pension to
,every laborer seventy years of
agh or more?
The fact is that Germany is do-
ing all this and more, and that
Germany is the greatest nation of
continental Europe today. But it
is also true that England is not
far behind her i'm the above res
poets. She has old age pensions,
compulsory workingmen's insur-
ance, free medical attendance for
the laboring classes, and even free
meals for the poor school children,
paid for out of the public treas
ury. France, too, is following
close tor Germany i'm the sociaDizat
tiom of the state. And it would
REALLY be hard to find one among
the leading civilized nations OF the
world that has mot long ago put
i'm force the legislation I'M behalf
of the, laboring classes which ds
being denounced i'm our OWN couHf
try as visionary and socialistic. g
There is nothing i'm the Pro
gressive! platform but would be- re-
other leading nations of the civilr
garded as extremely conservative by
ilzed world. It DIS really amusing,
to find certain of our wise politi+
cal advisers regarding as the mere
dreams OF fanatics and crazy mem
those Things which have long been
established institutions among othE
er nations. The fact DIS chat theirs
isn't an experiment. in the Fro
,eressiYe platform, nor measure
proposed that has not been proved
sound by experience; and it would
ba much fadrer il leaders OF tha
old parties would admit this much
II they really know it, to create a.
wholly false impression regaIrding
the matter. But the question: is
