THE GERMAN CENTRE PARTY.
What the Organization Is and What
1t Has Done.

There has lately been published by
the Catholic Publishing Company,
Amsterdam, an interesting account of
the history and work of the great
German Catholic party, THE Centre"
from the pen of M. Erzberger. The
author. himself a member of the
Reichstag, is at pains to show that
the Centre is essentially a political
and not a sectarian party. BY this
he means that the party, though pre-
dominantly Catholic, opens its ranks
to men of all religions-it is supported
by voters who are not Catholics, and
has always counted Professionals among
its members within the Reichstag.
Windthorst affirmed this fundamental
principal of the party when he said:
THE Centre party is not a sectarian

had been begun, and each succeeding
Pope, notably Clement VIII, added to-
the decorations originally planned.
Rich marbles and mosaics grew in
the course of centuries around the al
tars and on the pilasters, and high
up in the golden dome the colossal
statues which adorn the inches were
added one by one in the course Of
three hundred years.
Fifty years ago, under Pope Plus
TX, the task was begun of substitute
ing the Carrara marble for stone in
the pediments of the great pilasters
of the nave. Now it remains to clothe
with the same marble the entire length
of the seventy-five Corinthian pilas-.
tiers. The cost will run into at least
100000 and the public will be APP
pealed to for subscriptions. The Pope,
himself and Cardinal Rampo1Ia al
ready have made large gifts toward
the work, which may not be completed
for another half century.

fines as ''the systematic study of the

The Liberties of Parliament.

The liberties of Parliament have al
ways been dear to the Centre. And
never were these indicated with
greater boldness than at the last
general election. The electoral mani
festo of the party used these decisive
words:
"The decision regarding the ap-
prevail of the expenses of the Empire
belongs to the proper responsibility
of the Reichstag, as is laid down in
the constitution. The expression of
the Chancellor, the parties in the
Reichstag bear no responsibility; they
may accept or refuse demands shows
a conception which, belonging to the
princely absolutism of bygone CEN
turtles, should not be brought forward
by any official member of modern,
constitutional state. The dissolution
of the Reichstag is in our opinion an
attack on its position as an independ-
ent factor of the legislative power.

the general fund of the city, will be
paid off June l, 1913. This was de-

a motion made by Mayor Zimmerman.
All street improvement bonds which

The city owed $28,435.20 when the
field examiners went over the books
of the special street improvement
fund. Since that time the city has
paid off $4,000 of the bonds, leaving
$26,435.20 to be paid. The budget

due, leaving a balance of SIS, ABS 20,
which augmented by the interest until
June /, the earliest date at which the

A number of bonds will be called in

Connersville. His children attended
the local schools during his residence
here. .. ,..-.. e.
The Rev. Mr.. Marlatt was born in
Washington township, Wayne county,
June q, 1885. His father, Thomas
Marlatt, was son of Abraham Mar
latt, who fought in Almonds legion of
dragons in the war of the Revolu-
ton. He came to Indiana in 1916 and

Attending school in an old log
schoolhouse on his fathers farm, he
later became a student at Whitewater

strongest supporters of education, in
the ministry of the church. For many
years he was member of the board of
