The Bishop then REPEATED the whole

These words drew tremendous an.

of protest to the previous demonstra-
ton being very evident.

SOCIALISTS HOPE TO DIVIDE
LABOR UNIONS.

During his address before the Amer
lean Federation. of Labor in Seattle
Bishop Carroll of Helena, Mont,
quoted from the report of George w.
Perkins, fraternal delegate to the In
ternational Secretariat, made to the
convention the previous day. Speak
ing of the conditions in Germany and
other European countries, Mr.. Per-
kins had said: Without in any way
discussing, or being understood as
favoring the dual organizations of the
so-called Christian unions, the fact
that the regular or free unions were
and are today to some extent commit
ted to socialism and against the
Church, gives the Christian unions
and unionists an excuse to organize
as SUCH"
No sooner had the Bishop uttered
the words: The free unions are COM
mitted to socialism and against the
Church." when some visitors, presum.
ably socialists, at the left side Of the
hall applauded. President Gompers
restored order with the remark that,

THE SEATTLE CONVENTION.

less important in it's aftermath and

gram than was the convention itself.

labor unions are placing themselves
under religious leadership and incor.
porating the doctrines of Christianity

ment and at the same time wedding
out from their ranks and disowning
those who deny the teachings of re.
ligion.
The position of the Catholic church
at the Seattle meeting was explained
by Bishop Carroll of Helena, Mon
tana, when he said:
Il hope that the day will never come
when it will be necessary to divide
the ranks of labor in the United
States. So to do would weaken the
cause of labor. Our government guar
antees the fullest liberty to religion.
America welcomes religion and wishes
that religious principles permeate the
minds and hearts of her people, Why,
then. should unionism do anything
which would suggest antagonism to
religion? Such a thing would be un-
American and should be condemned
by the American Federation of Labor"
The applause which greeted the
bishops statements showed very plain
ly the sentiments prevailing among
the delegates.
The Socialist organs, however, are
much disturbed over the friendship
existing between the trade unions and
the Catholic church, and declare that
it is an attempt by the church to oh.
tain control should socialism make
further progress in the ranks of the
trade unionists.
The Socialists themselves in this
instance are unable to see that by
their denial of God and religion they
have arrayed both the church and
trade unions against them.
The revolutionary socialists are
attempting to place the friendship of
the church in false light to satisfy
socialistic purposes and whine be-

Success.

Success is a term often used, if not
much abused, in these days. No ap-
peal to pulpit or parent, pew or
preacher seems to be quite complete
without it. What is called "the Cos,
pei of success" finds a large number
of advocates. All too often the term
is used in cold and purely CONNER
cial sense. When we ask if mans
life is success, it is ordinarily taken
for granted that the answer is to be
given in dollars and position. Char
acter, friendliness, and high sense
of fidelity to duty frequently are re-
garded as almost too trivial to men.

THE SCOPE OF CHARITY,

An excellent book entitled "The
Scope of Charity" by Rev. James
Donahoe, has just come from the
press.
The work reviews in sectional form
the various phases of Catholic Chart,
and applies to charity in general.
Father Donahoe deals with his sub
ject under the following headings:
The Aims of Charity.
The Excellence and Defects of Cath
Ollie Charity.
Relief.
Prevention.
Rescue Work.
How Much of a Priests Time and
Money is Wasted
City Missionary Work.
Cooperation in Charity Work.
The Evil Power of the Liquor Traf
fic.
Public and Private Relief.
Throughout the book there is note
of the changing attitude of those who
donate toward and who foster public
charity, both denominative and unde
nominative. This note is the social
uplift aspect of the work Catholic
charity as is clearly shown by FIR
Donahoe's work. comes not alone ir
the giving of proportionate number
of dependents and in lessening the
forces of those agencies that exer
demoralizing influences.
Charity and kindness toward the
fallen and unfortunate is indeed q
higher and more effective form Of
charity than the mere giving of mon
ey. The material collected for the
book. The subjects tested together
with Father Donahoe's conception OF
the needs and aims of charity, make
this work an invaluable one in the
hands of those interested in the con

That is the way William Vernon
Backus, lawyer, lecturer, liquist
financier and organizer of the Appre.
citation League of the United Statesr
recently incorporated, pointed out the
only road to real happiness.
Telling people to be happy and
healthy, and all that, is nothing
new" continued Backus, "but telling
them how and why to be happy and
showing them that courtesy is real
financial investment-that much of
my creed is new"
Backus' plan, in a nutshell, is to
have every member of the Apprecia-
ton League-it costs nothing to join
report employees in any vocation for
courtesy, instead of discourtesy.

KEEPING ITS PLACE.

Advising the churches not to try to
influence legislature in favor of Eu.
genie Marriage and other fads. Gov.
ernor Baldwin of Connecticut gave the
Catholic Church as an example OF a
church Winding it's own business when
he said, "The Catholic Church con
tents itself with looking after the indi
vidual and in laying down rules for its
members as matters of religion, not in
trying to work for rules to govern the
conduct of others. That is why the
Catholic Church does not join in the
movements that aim to make people
good by legislation.

HAVE WE A STATE CHURCH

When Mr.. Blaine was Secretary of
State in President Harrison's Cabinet
he devoted himself to the work of
bringing about closer relations be-
tween the United States and all of
the Central and South American re-
publics, says the Newark, N. j., Moni-
tor.
1t was a task worthy of the great
American statesman who undertook it.
It's Importance is brought home to us
today by this Mexican chaos big with
possibilities of the gravest dangers.
Had Mr.. Blaine's policy of Pan
American solidarity been crowned
with the success he desired, the moral
influence of the United States, backed
by all the republics on the American
continent, would be an irresistible fac
tor in restoring order to distracted
Mexico.
What Mr.. Blaine began, Mr.. Roose-
welt continued when President of the
United States. He, too. appreciated
to the full the beneficial results of
bringing all the American Govern
ments into a species of union on a
basis of perfect equality. The bond
between them was to be that of mu-
tual interests. In order to strength
en- it. method of demonstrating to
our sister republics that this country
is not under the influence of anti
Catholic prejudices was adopted.
What is known as the Pan-American
Mass was celebrated annually at St.
Patrick's Church, Washington, d. c.
1t was in President Roosevelt's Ad-
ministration that this Mass was first
offered up for the success of policy
with which the welfare of the Ameri-
can continent is identified. The Presi-
dent, members of his cabinet and the
representatives of Central and South
American republics were present. I'm
der President Taft's administration.
Secretary Knox requested the Right
Rev. Mgr. William Russell, rector OF
st. Patrick's, to make the celebration
of the Pan-American Mass annual.
Bigots Protest.
The celebration this year took place
on Thanksgiving Day. Some time ago
President Wilson promised to be pres.
ent His promise has stirred the anti.
Catholic bigots of Washington to en-.
ter a protest We wish to say in pass
ing that we are surprised that repre-.
sentatives of the Episcopal Church
should join in demonstration of this
kind. We were of the opinion that
the Episcopal Church was only too
willing to allow certain Protestant
sects a monopoly of the "anti-Popery"
rant.
A resolution adopted at an Epis-
copalian gathering at Washington
proves that We were mistaken. 1t
starts out with the statement that
