MATCHMAKING CATHOLICS.

We thank Father Phelan, of
the western Waterman" for
calling attention to the fact that
the word "Romanist' is used call
through Chambers Encyclo-
pedia" as a synonym for Catholic.
The fact that it is found there
rather disproves the conclusion
which he arrives at, namely, that
this Encyclopedia is not a work
where one would expect to find
simple vituperation - Itseems to
us that the conclusion he should
have reached is, that Chamber
Encyclopedia is not a work which
Catholics ought to patronize. In
the absence of other encyclopedias
it found its way into the libraries
of Catholics in the past; but there
is now no reason for them to refer
to it's pages as most modern en-
cyclopedias make it a custom to
submit all articles dealing with
Catholic subjects. to a Catholic
scholar for revision. In this way
they avoid giving offense to their
Catholic readers by the use of
such words as "Romanist, +" Pap
list, " etc.,-words which in the be-
ginning were undoubtedly used as
insults and which have not yet
lost their opprobrious significa-
ton.
But whatever may be said in re-
gard to the past, there is no longer
any excuse for the use of such
words by any one who makes pre-
tentions to scholarship. 1t is no
justification to assert that they
are used without malice. LII any
one declares that these ''nick-
Names can be applied to Catho-
lies without giving offence he
leaves himself open to the charge
of being crassly ignorant of their
traditional meaning. Thank God
they are now used less frequent
ly than in days gone by, and the
sooner they disappear entirely
the better. Their use does NO
credit to the intelligence of those
who have recourse to them
Catholics have always resented
them and they are justified in do
ing so. Let them be speedily con
signed to oblivion with all the
other weapons and evidences Of
anti-Catholic bigotry.

DOMAIN OF TEMPERANCE.
WHO MAKES THE DRUNkARD7

The drunkard is the direct product
OF the saloon. In 80 cases out of
every 100, he began to drink In the
saloon, when he was thoughtless boy
or inexperienced young man. He con-
tinued his drinking there, until he
formed the habit and the habit grew
to an appetite. When he tried to re-
form, as every drunkard does try, the
temptation of the saloon drew him
back to his vice. His earnings, in
very large part, perhaps too, the estate
that he inherited, have gone into the
till of the saloonkeeper. The good re-
pute he once had, the respect of
friends, the welfare of his loved ones
he has sacrificed them all and upon
the sacrifice the saloon keeper has
fattened
What beautiful justice there is now
in the anxiety of the friends of the
liquor business to relieve that bust
ness of it's proper odium OF response
bility for the drunkard's condition!

A GERMAN FATHER MATHEW.

German papers report the activities
of a Catholic priest, Father Elpidius,
whose campaign for abstinence begins
to remind one of that of Father
Mathew, says the Catholic Abstainer.
He is a Franciscan, who appears bare
footed, save for sandals, in a brown
robe, with the white cord and Cruel
fix of his order He breaches uncom-
promising abstinence, and thousands
are taking the pledge and joining the
Kreuzbund Neague of the Crosse, the
German Catholic abstinence organiza-
tion 1t is said that ten thousand have
given up drink in Silesia alone. The
excellence of German organization,
the completeness of it's literature and
the solidity of German methods will
probably succeed in conserving the
results of the eloquent Franciscan's
campaign. He is thoroughly informed
on the modern and scientific phases of
the alcohol problem.

may have occurred in the past
through dearth of priests and
spiritual ministrations.

Some weeks before the fall cleo
ton in Georgia the so-called Guar
dams of Liberty came out publicly
and advised the voters to oppose
Joseph S. Gray, of Savannah, who
sought the nomination for the
office of State Railroad Commits
sioner. Their opposition was
based on the fact that he was "a
Roman Catholic, a Knight Of Co.
lumbus, against free speech, free
press, and our liberties. To the
credit of the voters of Georgia it
must be said that this appeal to
religious prejudice did not have
the effect which the Guardians in
tended. Mr.. Gray swept the state
by an overwhelming majority and
the Atlanta Constitution declared
that the indefensible dragooning
of religious prejudice against him
largely contributed to the end. .
The American people do not care
to have religion injected into poll
tics, and as a general rule they
cannot be coerced into voting
against a candidate, otherwise
eligible, on the sole ground of his
religion.

work Of this great apostle and

work or this great apostle and
leader.
1t is sad, therefore, to realize
that the memory of Father Mat
hew is no longer honored as here
tofore, and that his example is no
longer an incentive, to continued
activity on behalf of the cause
which was so dear to him. The
rising generation know very little
about his claim to their remem-
brance and gratitude. His deeds
are, for the most part, a closed
book to them. Their interest in
the movement of which he was the
founder has never been stimulated
by the recital of his wonderful
success in spite Of the century-old
prejudices with which he had to
contend.
Nor can it be said in justifca-
tion for this lack of interest that
the cause which he championed
does not need champions today.
The drink question is as vital a
problem at the present time as it
was when Father Mathew began
his crusade three-quarters Of a
century ago. It has assumed new
phases, it is true, and to meet
these changed conditions new
methods are necessary; but the
fundamental principle enunciated
and put into practical operation
by him is as true today as it was
then. He declared that no man
in the enjoyment of normal health
needs intoxicating beverages; and
the verdict of scientific investiga-
ton since that time confirms his
conclusion and reiterates his state
ment with positiveness born
of conviction.
The present generation needs
the inspiration that comes from
his enthusiastic activity which
crowded such wonderful results
into the compass of less than a
score of years. The crying need
Of our time is for another Father
Mathew, versed' in the scientific
knowledge of the present regard
ing the ravages of alcohol, to con-
vince the rising generation that
this humble priest laid the foun-
dalton upon which must be based
the temperance reform of the fu-
ture if it would be productive of
lasting results. It is a truism to
say that individual total abstin-
ence, if put into practice by peo-
pie generally, would solve the
liquor problem in a generation.
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1912-10-12

Some months ago a movement
was set on foot in Buenos Aires,
South America, to found great
Catholic paper-a paper which, IN
addition to it's Catholic features,
would be equipped to take it's
place beside the great secular
dailies. For that purpose a gen
erous woman whose name is with
held, gave two hundred thousand
dollars to Gel Pueblo as the
nucleus to fund to develop that
publication into a virile Catholic
daily. In chronicling the gift Gel
Pueblo" says: "This paper has re-
ceived donation Of two hundred
thousand dollars as basis for the
formation of a capital sufficient
for the establishing of Ell Pueblo
on a footing which modern jour
nalism demands; as basis, we
say, because it is readily under
stood, that with two hundred thou
sand dollars it would not be pos
sible to realize a work which
mapped out with due amplitude.
would require millions.
If the establishing Of a Catholic
daily paper in Buenos Aires re.
quires millions how far will the
one hundred and fifty thousand
dollars which is being raised fol-
the proposed English Catholic
daily in Buffalo go towards the
work?

According to court statistics
compiled by the Secretary of State
Of Ohio for the year ending June
30, 1912, $685. divorces were
granted in that State during the
year as compared with 5,521 the
preceding year In all, 5000 suits
for divorce were entered during
that time, an increase Of twenty
one over the previous year. In
965 cases drunkenness was given
as the reason for seeking a sever
ance of the marriage bond; in
1872 infdelity was the moving
cause; and in 5,126 abandonment
and cruelty were alleged. The
figures show that one marriage in
every five is a failure in Ohio and
lands the parties thereto in the
divorce court. This large per-
centage of marriages which prove
failure indicates that the statute
law of Ohio needs to be amended
in the interest of family life and
social stability. It is a deplorable
condition of affairs which, how
ever, is not unique in the United
States.

public school as, soon as these
children have made their First
Communion.
1t is almost impossible to I'M
derstand the sinful levity Of such
parents and their open defiance
of the laws Of the Church. Their
action appears still more criminal
when earnest Christian believers
outside the Catholic Church all
over the United States begin to
call loudly for religious and moral
instruction in the public schools
as the only means of counterfeit
ing the growing loss of positive
religion, and with it, as a neces-
sary consequence, the loss of
moral principles and habits among
the youth Of the country. y
"The crazy notion Of some
parents that their American citi-
zenship demands to have their
children attend the public school,
as if our Catholic schools were
not American, or the positively
anti Christian idea that the minds
and hearts of their children will
profit ever so much more by going
to the public school, although with
the loss of fuller and deeper re-
ligious training, are most assured
ly no excuses whatever.
