the thing he sought, one thing that
made this mechanician different; and
voiced his thought before considering

stated abruptly. You're no workman.

HuERrA AND WILSON.

When Bryan and Wilson took the
stand that they could not or would
not recognize a government founded
on assination they brought upon
themselves train of attendent diff
ficulties not easy to overcome.
England recognized Huerta in &C
cordance with her belief in the prime
iples of International law. We are in
an embarrassing position SO long as
Huerta has the strength TO maintain
his position.
The only policy left for US to pursue
is the Fabian" policy the policy Of
delay and waiting-waiting for the
Huerta regime to collapse
At one time it was thought that the
collapse would come very soon, but
Huerta seems to be maintaining him
self pretty we'll, while England Is
clamoring for Intervention and acting

ment.

MANCHESTER MARTYRS.

Tomorrow Nov. 8, is the anniver-
sary Of The Manchester Martyrs. The
National anthem OF Ireland. God save
Ireland" was inspired by their execu-
ton.
In evry Community Of the world
where Irishmen gather together the
names OF Allen, Larkin and O'Brien
will be especially honored and revered
on this anniversary.
The finest article written in con-
nection with their execution is from
the pen of A. NJ. Sullivan, from which
the following extracts are taken:
William Philip Allen was born near
the town of Tipperary, in April, 1S4s.
Before he was quite three years old
his parents removed to Bandon,
County Cork, where the father, who
protested the Protestant religion, re-
ceived the appointment of bridewell-
keeper. His mother good plous
Cathoic, whose warmesc aspiration
was to see her children in the fold
of the true chucrh. encouraged this
disposition by all the means in her
power. and the result of her pious
care shortly became apparent. A mis-
sion, opened in the town by some
Catholic order of priests, completed
the good work. which the prayers
and the example of an affectionate
mother had commenced; and young
Allen, after regularly attending the
religious services and exercises Of
the mission, became so much impress
sed with the truth of the lectures and
sermons he had listened to, that he
formally renowned the alien religion,
and was received. by the respected
parish priest of the town into the
bosom of the Cathoic Church. It
was In the summer OF 81 that Allen
last journeyed to Manchester. He was
then little more than nineteen years
old.
Michael O'Brien was born near Bal
lymacoda. County Cork, the birthplace
Of the Inflated and heroic Peter Crow
ley. His father rented large farm
in the same parish, but the blight Of
the bad laws which are the curse Of
Ireland fell upon him, and in the year
1856, the O'Briens were flung upon
the world dispossessed of lands and
home, though they owed no man a
penny at the time. Michael O'Brien
was apprenticed to draper In Yong
hal, and earned, during the period Of
his apprenticeship, the respect and
esteem Of all who knew him. He was
quiet and gentlemanly in manners,
and his character for morality and
good conduct was irreproachable.
Having served out his time in Youg.
hal, he went to Cork, and be. spent
some time % an assistent IN one 81

If the Minneapolis health depart
ment is in earnest about seeking out
places of filth why not engage the
services of Go Lightly Morrill,, his
imagination has become so used to
painting pictures Of filth, his vocab-
ulary fit for no other purpose and his
devoted adherent follwing his insin-
uations like buzzards following a bad
smell all would combine to make his
report like his matinee, the usual
Morril type of entertainment. His
last Sunday matinee entitled "To
Hell and Back" might suggest that he
may not always be provided with a
return ticket from that dreary region.

THE RED PLAGUE,

Among the most notable voices
raised against socialism and the need
or religious training to combat the
RED Plague, was the voice Of Hon.
Bird G.. Coler at the Procathedral last
Sunday evening.
His analysis of the subject and his
strong appeal for the necessity OF
religious training in our schools has
placed the master fairly och squarely
before the public. Something needs
to be done, something must be done.
Germany recalled the Jesuits-France
recalled the nuns. Rome has defeat.
ed Nathan-all of which indicate that
the Catholic Church is the only in.
stitution to which the civil authorities
can turn in their dilemma.
The public at large should care.
fully peruse Mr.. Coler's address. 1t
contains much sound advice and the
best exposition of the evil and the
remedy for popular study which has
been given under local auspices.
The one important thing we need
to do is to study ourselves. The lay
Catholics should study the situation
closely-The remedy Is in their owr
hands.
At present the eyes of the world
are upon the church in its fight
against socialism. Others outside the
church are studying the Catholic
attitude.
Many are satisfied with the credi,
given but do not understand why II
Is given.

A French school master has caus-
ed great larm among the young men
OF France He figured out that the
government must increase the time
during which young men must remain
in the army. The time must be in.
creased each year because Of tho
decline in population. This must be
done in order to keep pace with the
German army.
France lost to Germany through
the annexation of Alsace-Loraine to
the latter country 1,597,990 of her
population. Since then France has
increased her population by only
