telegraph.


SeW ssrleane PicAyumr: PosamAse
ter General Burleson wants the DA-
tional Government to cake charge OF
the telegrapb and telephone sergice
OF the JniteH statee ss pal@ Of the
postal business, ana while nothing
can be done at Che present time to
consummate che scheme, Che an
nouncement of the proposition from
the national Cabinet shows that it
is being seriously considered.
In several of the great European
nations the telegraph and telephone
services are under the control OF
the postal department, and it SCENE
that this &ill sooneq or later come
to be the case in our own country.
Bue che questioA mas be Gell
asked: How ie all to be donee Ne
have more miles sfe telegraph and
telephone lines than the whole OF
Europe together. Yhe European Cos
ernments started with their teleg-
raphy as a part of the government
service. and it has grown gradually
under government care. But our
government has allowed it to grow
up for more than three-quarters Of
century in private ownership
until it is valued at two thousand
million dollars. Now it is proposed
that the government shall take it
over.
But of course the government
would not accept the owners valua-
ton, but we can suppose that the
price. should be reduced to half that
sum stated above, where would the
United States get the money? 1t is
plain the sale, if it were consum-
mated, would have to be made for
bonds at low interest.
The sellers might not be willing
to accept the terms, and then the
property would be appropriated, but
the addition of billion dollars to
the national debt would be no tri-
fling affair. But the American peo-
pie may not be satisfied with taking
over the telegraph. They may de-
termine to have the railroads also.

THE RIGHT MAN.

Mayor John H. Buschemeyer. This
looks good and also sounds good. A
ran in every way qualified to fill the
position, straight and square, one who
is not a professional politician. \
candidate without blot or blemish, one
who has not been aligned with any
faction. With these undisputable
facts before the people, there are none
who will deny that he is the man who
should be our next Mayor, that he Is
the one who will give Louisville
honest and good government and con-
tinue her progress and advancement.
Will some one tell us why John H
Euschemeyer would not make an ideal
Mayor and what objection any advo-
cate of better and greater Louisville
can have to rallying to his support
Workingmen, business men, profes-
sional men, all who would see Louis

IMMIGRATION.

The Burnett immigration bill to
check immigration from Europe into
this country, which has been intro
duced in this Congress after havins
failed last year through President
Taft's veto, is to be pressed through
theoretically after 1t is reported
back to the House of Representa-
tives by it's Committee on Immigra-
ton. Its friends and its foes are
getting ready for action when it
comes up again for debate. Its
illiteracy test is directed against
Italians, Greeks, Hungarians and
Poles. AS the True Voice points
out, there is little doubt that immi
grafton restriction will continue to
be Urged by powertu' influence in
Congress and there is little doubt,
too, that some sort Of restriction
will ultimately be adopted. Differ
ence of opinion arises as to WHIST
tests shall be required. President
Taft gave unanswerable reasons FOR
his veto of the Burnett bill when II
succeeded in passing Congress be-
fore. So cogent was his argument
that the bill failed-not only to pass
over his veto-but to receive the
support that was given 1t on Its
first passage. There is not a single
sound argument to support the
literacy test for immigrants. II
those who are active in the campaign
for restriction would only devise
some means to keep out immigrants
that are really undesirable-the
loafers and sharps and crooks that
annually pour into this country from
Europe-no one could have any
objection. The trouble is that their
bill is framed so as to exclude the
Industrious classes that come here
TO work and to make their homes.
This country can assimilate In time
all those that may come. But we
don't want the undesirables that
our present laws admit and that the
proposed law is not framed to
exclude.

WHITE PERIL.

The culpability of a portion OF the
medical profession in the awful
crime known as trace suicide" has
not attracted the attention its I'M
portance deserves. We should think
the subject ought TO have the
thoughtful consideration Of the more
conscientious element in the profess
sion, for the highest interests of
society are at stake II some check be
not devised to protect the nation
from the effects of the desire to
cover up sin and let wickedness have
it's fling unchecked by any fear of
material consequences. The Rev.
DR.. Ely, a non-Catholic preacher,
entered into this subject recently
at the Lemon Hill services in Phlla-
delphia. Unless the foreign element
come to the rescue Of the nation, he
forsaw its ruin. The Standard and
Times thus quotes him:
Permit me to say, in this con-
nection, that / believe that Goddess
doctors, by the abuse Of the scien-
tific light which is entrusted to
them, are in large measure respon-
sible for childless homes and all the
consequent misery and unhappiness
Too often they are responsible fol
the murder of unborn babes, not
only by their direct efforts, but by
their suggestions to proud and
sinful women. The only hope ir
America for freedom from this curse
lies in the strong and healthy
foreign mothers, who come some
what ignorant, it is true, but who
are nevertheless innocent of the
perversions which unscrupulou'
scientists have sown in thoy.se1ds o.
minds to the rriIation of the
old-fashioned American home. Wher
say this I mean only that part Of
the medical profession which in this
respect is Goddess, and am re
minded, too, that the ministers o.
God, including myself. are just al
guilty if we fail to warn the people
both in regard to the dangers o.
their choice and the eternal conse
quences following"

ONLY SKIN DEEP.

Father Bernard Vaughan, whose

vide Ireland, and threaten perils
dimmed only lightly by riots in Derry
and strike in Dublin, are only skin
deep and would disappear like heat
rash were 1t not for the paid agi-
tators who keep them alive. During
his sojourn in the Emerald Isle he
was the guest Of leading Catholics
and Professionals. from the Lord
Lieutenant downward. He addressed
audiences composed of every political
party and had for Chairmen LORD
Aberdeen on one occasion and Car

THE KNIGHTS OF OLD.

dedicated to the X. OF CD
The knights of old, the Knights or
old,
How brightly cleaned their
lancesi
How gallantly they backward rolled
The heather worlds advances!
How dear they held the faith! How
kept
All threat ming danger from it;
How bravely from it's pathway swept
The turbans of Mahomet!
The knights of old, the knights Of
old,
How high they held the duty
To fend the feeble and the old,
To shield the breast of beauty
The Christ they saw in every child,
In every beggar lowly,
And for the sake Of Mary mild
All womanhood was holy.
And so they Jared, and so they
fought,
Serenely strong and tender,
And left the world the thrilling
thought
OF dreams and deeds of splendor,
And though today their swords are
rust,
Their banners dim and faded,
Their voices charge us from the dust
To serve mankind as they did!
The knights of old, the Knights Of
old,
Oh, you who dare inherit
The title of those warriors bold,
Take, too, their dauntless spirit,
Let church and country, truth and
right,
Still claim your best endeavor,
And be the noble name Of Knight
Unstained by you foreveri

Catholic parents. There are healthy
gains all over the city, while losses
are reported nowhere. The strides
that have been made by the Cath
Ollie common school system in its
short history are remarkable. The
difficulties to be overcome have
been so numerous that the task has
seemed impossible, but there is
scarcely a city where several OF
the parish schools are not ad-
mittedly superior to the costlier
public institutions. The value OF
these schools in this day of anarchy
so far as religious beliefs are con-
cerned, can not be overestimated.

The Kentucky Irish American is
in receipt of an anonymous COM

his Organization in the parade last

that at one corner they received
