coNsIsTENcVs GAIN.

DR.. Kraeplin, a Heidelberg profes-
sor, is ready to furnish proof that the
best method for fighting the drink
evil is "the personal example of total
abstinence" Some may find this war
fare against alcohol bit burdensome
lin fact, much more troublesome than
preaching total abstinence-bu what
is lost in hilarity is more than com
pensated for by what is gained in con-
sistency. For twelve years the pro-
fessor has been preaching total abb
stfnence by example, and he has never
regretted the style of warfare which
he has taken up. Il have to thank
total abstinence" he says, "for it's
beneficial results in respect to my
own health" The professor thinks
that his usefulness would have al
ready been much impaired had he per-
mitted himself to indulge in alcoholic
beverages.

The man who receives Holy
Communion privately, says the
Holy Name Journal, is securing
his own personal sanctifcation in
the highest possible way. The
man who approaches the altar
with the society is doing more.
He not only guards his own saliva
ton, but by his public profession
of faith, he acts as a pacemaker
for less courageous men who need
the help of numbers before they
can meet their obligations. Be a
pacemaker.

culated as to make it little more
than a parody on religion.
Not so with the Catholic
Church. In every community
it. stands out as a distinct re-
ligious organization among the
churches. It proposes to all a
definite body of doctrinal truths
and uniform code of morality.
It's social features are not en-
phasized so as to dominate its re-
ligious character. In fact, it has
been accused Of neglecting the so
cial phase of church life. At any
rate, Catholics are not divided on
the fundamental questions of re-
ligion and morality and where
there is more than one Catholic
Church in community the faith
full form but one body no matter
which church they worship in. 1t
is not divided into warning sects,
but represents the true commun-
ity" church which plays a most
important part in the social life
Of the people and does far more
for the betterment of the com
munity than all the other churches
put together.
Surely, the Rev. Mr.. Cool will
not DENY that the creed of the
Catholic Church is far different
from that Of any other religious
denomination. We are rather
surprised that a minister of the
Gospel should declare that it
makes no difference what creed is
taught the rising generation.
Does he not teach his people some
form of belief, however meagre
and attenuated it may be in doc
trinal content? He does not claim
to teach Catholic dogma. What,
then does he preach? Is his pull
pit given over to a popular discus
sion Of modern fads and novelties
which have no bearing on the
question of religion? Is he an
alien to that class Of ministers
who still possess some idea, vague
though it be, Of the real function
Of a religious teacher? If not,
then he must from time to time
refer to the Gospel and preach
some, at least, of the truths taught
by the Saviour Himself. This
demands some form Of religious
creed distinct from that held and
taught by ministers of other de-
nominations. This must be ap-
parent to every right-thinking
man and even the Rev. Mr.. Cool
ought to be able to see how incon-
sistent his assertion is when
viewed in the light of his position
as minister in definite religious
denomination. We will not at
tempt to extricate him from his
peculiar situation. His ingenuity
will probably suggest some ex-
PLANTATION of an attitude towards
dogmatic teaching which is not
uncommon among a certain class
Of Protestant ministers.

AN UN-AMERICAN Fedora
TION.

Have you observed that the
three principal officers of the A.
P. A. organization known as the
American Federation of Pa
triotic Voters" belong to the Twin
Cities? It's president, D. J. Reyn-
olds, and its secretary, C. W.
Bibb, belong to Minneapolis, and
it's treasurer, John D. Roberts,
halls from St. Paul. It's platform
demands absolute separation of
church and state" and mo diver
sion of public property or funds
for sectarian purposes whatso-
ever" It declares that "the pub
lie schools are essential to the
safety Of the state; that such
schools should be free from &C.
clesiastical influence or control
that persons disloyal to the gov
eminent or to public schools
should be vigorously excluded
from teaching therein.
1t is needless to state that this
organization is entirely anti Cath
Ole and was called into being for
the purpose Of opposing the buga-
boo of so-called Catholic domino
ton in American politics. Its
true animus is shown in the sew
enth plank Of its platform, which
says: "We urge an amendment
to the Constitution so that sub
jects Of foreign powers shall be
denied election franchise. In
the minds of these patriotic vot-
ers" Catholics are subjects of a
foreign power and, therefore,
should be debarred from having
a voice in the government of this
country.
1t is too much to expect that
the men who organized this fed
Grafton and those who belong to
it can familiarize themselves suf-
fciently with American history to
learn the all-important part which
Catholics played, not only in the
discovery and exploration of this
country, but in its progress and
development as a nation. Had the
Catholic colonists of Maryland
displayed as much bigotry as the
Puritans Of New England we
would still be in the "blue-law' =
stage as far as religious freedom
and liberty Of conscience are con-
cerned. And yet, the propagators
of bigotry in our day dare to rise
their heads and pirate about the
religious liberty guaranteed by
the Constitution, as il they were
in any way responsible for that
glorious prerogative of which all
genuine Americans, whose patriot
ism is not of the A. P. A. type,
are so justly proud. IL this ag-
gregation of ''patriotic voters
had any sense Of shame they
would hide their heads and beWail
the un-C Christian principles and
un-American ideals of their Puri-
tan ancestory.

THE INCONSISTENCY OF A
PROTESTANT MINISTER.

In the course of an address de-
livered before the delegates to the
State Conference Of Charities and
Corrections in Minneapolis last
week, the Rev. j. w. Cool, Of Lynd-
hurst Congregational Church of
that city, declared that a multi
plicity of churches was detri-
mental to the social welfare of
rural communities. He advocated
the closing of all churches in
these localities except a Catholic,
a Lutheran and a Protestant
Evangelical. "When we get down
to fundamentals he asked,
"what is the difference in our
faiths?" He supplied his own an
swer to the question when he said:
cit is time for us to get over the
idea that we must teach our chill
dren in our faith. What differ
ence does it make what faith we
teach them? When we eliminate
all except the three churches I
mention then the others will So
cialize themselves. I"
If the Rev. Mr.. Cool really be-
lieves that it makes no difference
what ones religious creed is, why
does he hesitate to follow his line
of reasoning to it's logical conclu-
sion? IL one creed be as good as
another, what is the need of three
different churches? Why not elm
mate two of them and make the
other the community" church
which he postulates for "the So
cialization of rural communities g"
And if community" church be
necessary for the social welfare
of the country why not for the
city?
We cannot agree with the Rev.
Mr.. Cool that the rural districts
are suffering from a multiplicity
of churches. The source of the
evils of which he complains is far
more fundamental They are
traceable to cause of which the
multiplicity of churches is only
an effect, namely, a multiplicity
of sects, or denominations, an
tagonistic to one another in their
efforts to add to the number of
their commitments, if not in posi-
tive doctrinal content. In most
of the villages and small towns
throughout the country one can
count number of Protestant
churches all Of which make their
appeal to a comparatively small
number of people and clamor for
recognition by means other than
those justified by the Gospel. This
keeps the non-Catholics divided
on the question Of religion and
initiates against the socializa-
ton of the rural communities
which the Rev. Mr.. Cool declares
so desirable. Each Protestant
church becomes a social centre
more or less segregated from the
ordinary life of the community in
its social activities. It's members
usually form a clique, and the
stronger the religious tie that
binds them, the more distinctly it
stands out as a unit in the social
life Of the community. 1t would
be useless to try to eliminate this
condition by closing all the non
Catholic churches but one, unless
that one adopted a creed so emas-

The daily papers of the Twin
Cities have intimated that the ad-
dress given by the Most Reverend
Archbishop Ireland at the civic
opening of the Pro-Cathedral in
Minneapolis last Sunday evening
was his last public utterance, at
least outside of purely religious
functions. They may be true
prophets; but the Most Reverend
Archbishop has given no hint that
such is the case.

Working On The
Bible Revision
(By United Press Association

ROME, Sept. l9-Announcement
was made today at the vatican that
the Right Rev. Abbot Gasquet,
supreme head of the monastic order
of the English Benedictines, and who
is already in the United States on a
visit, has just been instrusted with
special mission there by Pope Plus.
1t is hoped that Father Gasquet will
be able to secure contributions IN
America that will make possible the
complete revision of the Bible which
the Catholic church now has under
way
The preparing Of a revised text of
the Bible that would stand the test
of all modern criticism and research
has been one of the greatest ambitions
of Pope Plus from the moment he
was elected pope ten years ago. The
amount of money which it was fore
seen would be entailed made it i'm
possible for his holiness to undertake
the work until 1907 and now with a
goodly part of it completed, he is fac
ing the necessity OF having to aban-
don it unless generous subscrip-
tions are Forthcoming.
The actual work Of therevision was
intrusted by Pope Plus in 1907 to the
order Of Benedictines. The work has
since been carried steadily on in their
monasteries in all parts Of the world.
Owing to the fact that the great
bulk of the original Biblical manu-
scripts and early texts are preserved
in museums from which they cannot
be taken the work presented decided
obstacles. These were later largely
overcome by having photographs made
of all such manuscripts and these per
NIT the most minute examination of
all existing texts and early Biblical
manuscripts. Over 300 volumes of
these photographs, including the col
lection of the late j. P. Morgan, have
already been forwarded to Rome.
The next step of noting all the diff
| ferences in these texts and compiling
them was to be carried on by the Ben
edictine monks in the monastery of
San Calisto, just outside the walls of
Rome, but for the moment financial
difficulties have forced a temporary
abandonment of the work In this
emergency Pope Plus has authorized
Father Gasquet, on his present trip
to inspect the Benedictine monasteries
in the United States, to make an es-
pecial appeal for funds which will per-
NIT the finishing of the work. When
the last Latin text is completed it will
be the first full revision that has been
made since 1892.
