THEY NEED HELP.

High water has again visited
Louisville and rendered hundreds OF
moor families homeless. The waters
i'm the Ohio river rose to a forty-foot
stage. completely inundating the
Point and Shippingport. Profiting
by past experience many OF those
whose homes we're on the river front
removed their small effects before
their quarters were submerged, thus
minimizing the loss and damage.
Fortunately there has been no severe
cold weather this week, but never
theless there has already been much
suffering. For four days policemen,
firemen and scores Of others were
bnsv with wagons and skiffs and did
valiant work in helping the unfortu-
mates away from the danger that
threatened them. Many Of these poor
people are in destitute circumstances
and are in need of help, and there
fore all who can should assist IN
relieving the distress that follows
the flood. A visit and inspection OF
the flooded districts should open the
purse strings of the most selfish and
hard-hearted.

STRANGE METHODS.

INQUIRIES have reached the Ken
lucky Irish American regarding the
reliability and standing OF an
insurance company that has been
soliciting business from the priests
throughout Kentucky. The same
methods were pursued in Missouri
and the best answer is given in the
following letter written the Fort
nightly Review by priest of the st.
Louis archdiocese:
"There is an indemnity and
accident insurance company in Min
neapolis which sends its agents all
over the country, producing numer-
Gus testimonials and getting con-
tracts under the most glowing
representations. They appeal espe-
cially to the clergy, to whom they
make a reduced rate on the plea that
a clergyman's name is splendld
advertisement. They tell you that
i,muunsss illness or accident all you
have 10 do Is fo~vend your claim,
accompanied by physicians certifl-
cate. to headquarters, and you VIII
get your insurance. The rates are
SO ailuring that, however sceptic one
may be, he is induced to take a
policy on the strength of the repre-
sensations made orally and black on
white. But when the policyholder
gets i'll. or meets with an accident
the promises are not kept. Blanks
must be filled out, the physician is
called upon for additional state
ments. and after a considerable
interval the policyholder is notified
that his policy has been cancelled
and his premium is returned. II the
company were honest in its dealings
why does it neglect to have an
examination of the applicants health
made before issuing a policy as
other insurance companies do?"

JUBILATION
over Recognition Accord
ed Irish Priests In All
Lands.

Great jubilation is being expressed
in ireland as to the number of Irish
priests who have been of recent
wears selected for Bishoprics all over
the world. In many instances no
doubt their predecessors also were
Irishmen, particularly in the case OF
American and Australian sees.
Nevertheless some of the new Bish-
obs. Archbishop Mannix, for in
stance. have been selected directly
from ireland, and the great mission
ary College of All Hallows seems
now at the zenith Of its illustrious
career and usefulness. At Liverpool
the other day Father P. j. DOWNING
assured an audience that when ne
was studying the records of the Tor
eign work of the Irish monks. he was
simply astounded by the greatness OF
that work. There was scarcely d
known land in Europe-certalnly no
civilized land-that did not owe the
beginning of it's civilization to the
irish monk. Irish priests were IN
fact horn missionaries. Recent MS.
torical investigation had proved tnat
had II not been for the zeal and
faithful and constant care OF the
irish priest in days of old great
many elements Of human knowledge
would have utterly disappeared.

sULzER NOT AFRAID.

Irrespective of party, one can not
but admire the vigorously inde-
pendent manner in which Gov. sulzer
begins his administration. The
dismissal Of Gen. Organ from COM
mand of the State guard by Gov. Dix
had a suspicious look; his reappoint-
ment by Gov. sulzer proves that
gentleman to have sense OF fairness
not often met with. The frills and
poppycock generally attendant upon
Gubernatorial inaugurations were
cast aside by Mr.. sulzer, who went
into office without ostentation OF
vainglorious display. Possibly the
present administration may not be
80 full Of social gayety as has been
the custom, but that fact VIII not
cause any sorrow among the plain
people, to whom Mr.. sulzer has ever
been consistent friend. More
power to you. Governorl

man nature and a divine love for his
