THE IRISH AND THE SALOONS.

Edward d. Page of the Merchants
formed committee of legislators re-
Gently that the majority of the saloon
keepers are Irish"
The New York Sun takes issue with
this gentleman who registered his
guess. The chances are that IL the
legislators asked the too willing in
formant for his proofs he would have
talked himself into absurdity in trying
to cloud the question.
The Sun says: I'VE doubt it, though
it may have been once true. The
names over the doors of drinking
places are not dependable. Many nom
Irish saloon proprietors keep Irish
names over their places of business be-
cause OF their popular suggestion Of
joviality and good cheer. Many places
started and made prosperous by Irish
men have been sold, but retain the
names of their former owners. There
are many Germans, Jews and Italians
in the retail liquor business"
The Sun is right, says the Monitor
Of New Jersey. The number Of Irish
in the saloon business is constantly
decreasing. And this is true not only
In New York City, but throughout the
country. Comparatively few Of the
sons of Irish saloon keepers are con-
tent to remain in the business, and
they are trained to other avenues Of
livelihood.
Most OF the saloons, moreover, in
many districts are owned by the brew.
cries, and are conducted by represents
tives OF these brewing interests. And
the proportion Of Irish brewers Is
small.

A recent issue of the San
Francisco Monitor" warns Cath
olics against tThe Metropolitan
Magazine" of New York. cit is, -
says the Monitor, "the swell
Socialist publication Of the coun-
try, and has all the appearances of
a high-class popular literary
monthly. Yet it carries more poi
son in its pages than the Appeal
to Reason, which is frankly
labeled Socialist just now,
copies Of The Metropolitan are
being circulated among Catholics,
for the reason, doubtless, that a
series Of articles on Socialism and
Spiritual Expansion, by George
ID. Heron are being published.
The Catholic bulletin. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1911-1995, 1913-05-17

For the present it will suffice to
say that Heron is a deposed Con-
gregational minister, who de-
serted his wife and five small chill
dren to live the free life with
another woman. Catholics will
not take lessons in spiritual ex-
pansion' from such a person.
Steer clear of "The Metropolitan
Magazine. +"

Never accept as undoubtedly true
what an accuser says, until after you
have heard the accused and found him
guilty. Do not lightly condemn the
actions Of others; we must consider
the intention of our neighbor, which
is often good and pure, although the
act itself seems blameworthy. Treat
sinners as a good mother treats her
sick child; she lavishes more caresses
on her child when he is sick than when
he is well. Bartol.

very convenient and cOmprehen-
sive term in the mouths of those
who would make religion a per-
sonal matter depending entirely
upon the individuals conception
of what is necessary for his spirit
ual welfare. 1t is a term which
is frequently used by those who
would appear learned by giving
their hearers the impression that
they have made a profound study
of religious problems, and that, as
a consequence, they have enamel
pated themselves from the con-
ception of religion-of man S
duty to God, to himself, and to
his neighbor-which prevailed in
the ages of faith and learning
which they, in the light of their
modern and superficial knowl-
edge, regard as the dark ages. !"
It is an easy matter for men
like DIR. Black to attempt to brush
away with wave of the hand, as
it were, the primary dogmas of
Christianity as enunciated by
Christ Himself, but what will they
substitute in place of them? 1t is
absurd to talk of moral standards
apart from the fundamental prin-
ciples of religion upon which they
are based and which alone can
give them the sanction that makes
them binding upon mankind.
Without definite dogmatic teach
ing there can be no unchanglng
standards of human conduct, and
in the absence Of such immutable
principles mems ideas of right
and wrong are as varied and
variable as the individuals them
selves. Nor is it true to say that
''the greatest result Of the mod
ern movement is that the EN-.
phasis of religion is put upon its
social significance" unless the
modern movement" be regarded
as synonymous with Protestant
ism. Outside the Catholic Church
religion is little more than a so.
cial function and in the absence
of definite dogmatic teaching
there is nothing left for a minister
to do but to emphasize its social
significance.
If Protestant congregations in
their respective churches are will
ing to listen to distinguished
preachers enunciating such al
emasculated Christianity, we
make no objections; but when il
comes to preaching distinctively
Protestant doctrine in the State
University of Minnesota we be.
lieve it is time to utter an EN-.
phatic protest. The State Uni
versity is a seat Of secular learn
ing, and it is bad enough to have
some of its professors give ex.
preston to anti-Catholic views in
their lectures, without having min.
listers brought in by those in
charge of the institution to preach
sectarian doctrine to the student
body. There is no justification for
such action. 1t is not in keeping
with thesapurpose for which the
institution was founded The
University is undenominational
and should be kept so. If this is
not done it will be a grave ques-
ton whether Catholics are justi-
fed in patronizing it for the pur-
pose of securing an education al
the expense of danger to their
faith from the sectarian teaching
carried on under its aegis.

FISH TALE FROM CALEDONIA
Story Quite Unusual Is
Circulated in Portage
After High Water.

Catching carp on the highway is
the burden of the latest fish story frc 10
that good old town of Caledonia. LIS
truth is vouched for by reliable resi-
dents. 1t seems Mrs. Grover Staudep-
mayer was coming home from Bara-
boo Wednesday, riding in a lumber
wagon drawn by team, and the ve-
hicle was passing stretch of road
several feet under water, not far from
the Staudenmayer place. gas the
horses waded carefully along through
this backset from the swollen Baraboo
river-.with the water nearly up to
the wagon box-the occupants of the
wagon,distinctly heard thump against
something alive and wriggling. In q
moment a seven-pound carp fioated to
the surface of the water and turned
over in expiring struggles. The i'm
pact of the wagon had fatally injured
the big fish. The party took the
carp home and exhibited it TO the
wondering neighbors.

THE BAR|BEAU
CAMPFIRE GIRLS
New Organization Being
Formed In this City
BY Young Ladies.

The Baribeau Campfire is bein g
formed by the following:
Miss Frances Enright
Miss La Verne Wood
Miss Lillian Reinking
Miss Evva Varnell
The campfire movement was started
by DR.. and Mrs. Luther H. Gulick in
one of the eastern states and was made
a national organization just one year
ago.
It's object is "to give the girls
through romance, adventure and or
ganization that efficient training fol
life which the boy gets through team
games, competitive athletics and
wholesome work. It is not feminized
adaptation of the boy scout movement,
but method of work carefully con-
structed from the cristalized expert
ence of the successful endeavors in
behalf of girls" 1t is so simple that
it can be carried on by any group of
girls; so adaptable that it fits the need
of the city as well as the country, of
the poor as well AS the rich, summer
as we'll as winter, indoors as we'll as
outdoors; so beautiful in form that it
will attract and hold the affection of
girls; SO useful in content that it will
serve the needs of the various organi-
zatiops that are working in the inter
ests of girls.
When a girl first joins she becomes
wood gatherer and receives from
headquarters silver ring with bundle
of fagots upon it, seven in number to
represent the seven points of law:
Seek beauty
Give service
Pursue knowledge
Be trustworthy
Hold on to health
Glorify work
Be happy
In time the member must be able tC
fulfill fifteen requirements such as
making garments, refrain from drink
ing soda, commit poem and do Other
useful things. She then becomes 6
fire maker. Then there are lot more
of attainments and the young ledy
becomes a torch bearer and the honors
here are more difficult to secure. Fol
lowing the degrees wood gatherer, fire
M maker and torch bearer there will bt
all kinds of open air events such as
folk dances, festivals and tramps afield
The local camp was named for Jear
| Baribeau, the mythical Frenchmar
who is supposed to have tramped anc
trapped along the stream which bears
his name. Miss Enright is known ir
the camp as Minnewaukan, the Indiar
name once applied to Devils lake
Each of the other members will nc
doubt take aboriginal names, the
membership will be increased anC
some pleasing events unfolded By
those interested in the movement.

JUDGES FAVOR
INCOME TAX
Baraboo Negative Team
Wins Decision at Capital
City.
SPARTANS VICTORIOUS HERE
Triangular Debate Held
Friday--Baraboo Has
Poor Support.
SPARTANS VICTORIOUS HERE

| In the triangular debate held Fri
day between the high schools of Bara-
boo, Madison and Sparta on the ques-
tion "Resolved that the levying of a
graduated Income Tax should be dis
continued in Wisconsin," the decision
of the judges was cast In favor of the
team supporting the negative inIevery
case.
The BarabOo team, defending the
negative, defeated the Madison team
yesterday afternoon at the Capital
City. The local debaters were: George
Weber, Arnold Braun and Allen
Schneider sswhile the affirmative team
of Madison were composed of Howard
Eaton, Leroy Burlingame and Robert
Snaddon. Professor z. Lyman:of the
university public speaking depart
ment; Fred Mackenzie, managing
editor of LaFolIette's weekly, and
Principal Miller of the university
high school, acted as judges of the
debate at Madison.
The Sparta team won the decision
over the Baraboo trio at the local high
school last evening. Baraboo was
represented in the debate by Roy At
kinsoN, William Kasiska and Ray
Thomas, supporting the affirmative;
and Sparta by F. E. Steel, Bruce Nc
Coy and Robert Smith. The Sparta
team, perhaps because they had the
more popular side of the question,
simply outclassed the Baraboo boys in
every respect, and the decision of the
judges was east unanimously in favor
of the visitors. The debaters for Bara-
boo did well. especially Mr.. Atkinson
who in face of defeat fought hard.
The principal points argued by the
affirmative were, the unpopularity of
the tax, the fact that the tax had
failed in other states, and that better
tax could be levied to supplement the
personal property tax than one on
mans income. The negative argued
the following points; that the income
tax avoided the defects in personal
property tax, that the income
tax benefits most, not the state,
but the town and county, and
they gave reasons for the tax having
failed in other states. The debate was
presided over by George Dickens. The
following were judges: Superintend-
ent Wittenberg, Whitewater; Attor-
ney Rundell, Monroe; and Mr..
Slummtvitz, employed In the board of
state affairs in Madison. A song was
given by a graded school chorus, and
violin solo by Clayton Rodwell, assist
ed by Miss Helen Hoadley at the
piano.
Perhaps one cause of the Baraboo
team not winning over Sparta was the
lack ofsupport on the part of the people
of Baraboo. Debating is one of the
best activities is which the high
school students indulge, and therefore
the same support should be given it as
is given base ball, basket ball, or
football.
