CATHOLICS NOT TO AID
CAUSE OF ORLEAN|STS
Vatican Forbids Support and
French RoyaIists Are
Dismayed.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
PARIS, September 7.-Gloom has been
cast over French royalist circles by the
unequivocal instructions given to Catho-
lies, through the medium Of Mgr. Cam
pistron, Bishop of Annecy, not to ally
themselves with the parties Of dynastic
opposition in France.
On receiving Mgr. Campistron in audi
ence recently the Pope enjoined him to
unite all Catholics on the ground Of re-
ligion only under the banner Of the
cross"
More precise instructions were issued
to the bishop by Cardinal Merry del Val.
seled French Catholics to keep clear OF
the royalist cause. His opinion of the
hopelessness of attempting to overthrow
the republic clearly emerges from the ar
guments he then advanced.
Even should the Orleanist cause sue
ceed in two or three years." said the
cardinal, -the throne would be quickly
overturned again, in which case the
church, il it had lent support to the roy
alists. would be sadly compromised, and
il the royalists failed in their attempt
the result to Catholics would be just as
bad. These arguments apply with equal
force to the imperialist cause"
Admits to Instructions.
To the dismay of the royalists the
Bishop Of Annecy admits receiving these
instructions from the papal secretary OF
state, and also confirms the report that
his only answer to the political group
who recently waited upon him was to re-
peat them.
1t is pointed out. however. that the car
dinal only reaffirmed what Piux has
always insisted upon from the day or his
elevation to the holy see, namely, that
the church must take a strictly neutral
attitude in politics and avoid even the
semblance of political alliance with any
particular party.
In connection with this the republicans
of Paris are recalling the rebuff admin
istered by Pope Leo XIII. to the Prince
of Orleans family. whom he received in
audience.

The primary campaign in Per-
kins county was one of the most
bitter fractional affairs ever pulled
off in the Northwest-especially in
the city Of Lennon. A day or two
after the primary election a circu-
lar was distributed attacking the
standing Of the First National
Bank of that city, the author Of the
circular being unknown. 1t was
stated in the circular that the bank
was insolvent and was still doing
business. While the fight was
bitter between the banks and news
papers of the city, all the interested
parties of both factions took imme-
date action in denouncing the un-
demanded methods OF the author
of the circular and came out in a
circular stating the true condition
of the First National Banks fl
nances. While these political
scraps become quite heated at
times, the dirty work resorted to
in this ease is a disgrace to any
man who will resort to such tac-
ties and might result in much harm
which could not be easily rectified.
However, in this case it is not
likely that any bad effects will fol-
low. The First National Bank of
Lennon is the strongest bank be-
tween Aberdeen and Miles City,
and had this fact not been so we'll
known 1t is probable hat the bust
ness standing of the institution
would have been greatly damaged
as a result of the low down tactics
of the author of the circular, who
made plain statements which might
land him in the penitentiary should
his identity be discovered.

sued until he struck her a severe

was sorry that it occurred, and she
has always liked Jim, and did not
object to his smoking. On the
contrary she enjoyed the smell of
Il good cigar, but could not stand

PROPOSED AUTOMOBILE HIGHWAY.

In another column The News

lean outlining plans WHICH are be-
ing made to establish an autom0-
Bile highway from this city to
Aberdeen. The plan is the out
come of some discussion on the
subject at the meeting Of the North
west Development League at Fps
wich about two weeks ago, and no
doubt considerable credit is due
j. w. Parmley, Of Ipswich, for the
progress which has already been
made in the appointment Of com
petent committees in Walworth,
Edmunds and Brown counties.
Not only does Mr.. Parmley enjoy
a state wide reputation as an adyo-
cate of good roads, but he is con
sidered as one Of the foremost
workers along this line in the en-
tire Northwest, gaining this enVla-
BILE reputation because OF the ac-
tive interest he has taken in the
matter for several years past. This
project is n most cCmmendable one
and deserves the cooperation Of
the people of every town along the
proposed highway as well as the
farmers along the route. a mum
Der Of public spirited men have
already contributed funds for the
enterprise and others will follow
suit as soon as the proposition is
put up to them. 1t is practically
certain that every man who lives
on or near this road will be willing
10 contribute something toward the
good work-at least the road tax
and work for this year. The News
believes the commercial clubs of
the several towns should unite in
their efforts to promote the plan.
