AHTa1SSaNSAMLSSION FIELDS:A

The manner of establishing a new
mission in China is as follows: First,
the head of the projected mission Sc
lects a place of residence, and after
becoming acquainted with the people
he engages catechists. The catechu-
mems, after one or two years proof
of their sincerity and three weeks Of
spiritual exercises are then baptized.
The cathechumens are taught by
Chinese teachers.
Protestant missionaries, of whom
there are swarm in China, generally
reside in the cities, while the Catholic
missionaries, unencumbered by fam
lilies, establish their missions far in
the interior among the common peo-
pie, and are thereby very successful
in their religious labors.
The present government of China
is very favorably disposed towards the
Catholic missions, but the President
Yuen Schi Kai is not, as has been
stated by several Catholic papers, a
member Of the Catholic Church.
The people in rural districts in
China live very clean, moral lives,
and only in the cities among the veal
thy is there any polygamy practiced.
The Chinese have great respect for
authority and this, with their rever-
ence for the dead, make the spirit and
teaching of the Catholic Church in it's
respect for authority and its prayers
for the dead very grateful and sccep-
table to the Chinese mind.
The following figures will show
what money contributed for the Chin
csc missions can do: In China money
can readily be placed at 10 per cent.
Accordingly the interest on $4,000
amounting to 5000 would be sufficient
for the maintenance of one mission
airy, since living in China is quite
cheap. The same sum would be suffi-
cient to maintain a teacher in the
High School or College.
The interest on $500 would main
tain a catechist, and sum of 5000
would be permanent fund at 10 per
cent, sufficient for one Chinese semi
marian or student for priesthood.
To bring China into the fold of
Christ; to win that land whose civil
cation and culture antedate that of
Babylon or Greece or Rome and whose
population exceeds that of Europe and
America, this is the duty and obliga-
ton not only Of few missionaries,
but of the entire Catholic Church, for
our Lord gave this command to all
His followers: Going therefore, teach
We all nations"-Remember also that
in "all nations" the Chinese are in
cluded.

The Mexican Situation

The act of Huerta, the Mexican dicta
tor, in imprisoning members of congress
who were opposed to his policies is en-
tirely consistent with his previous con-
duct.
The United States will probably make
no further demand upon or hold any re-
lations with Huerta 1t may recognize
his opponents, or 1t may take some other
course; something it must and will do.
There is no use in Disgusting the gravity
of the situation.
For our part, Americans can be hearth
ly glad that the Wilson administration
has not shown any recognition OF Huerta
and will not. Recognition of assassina-
ton as the step to political power would
be worse in effect upon this country and
people than would years of war.

Too Much progressive"

Isn't this constant progressive" talk
getting a bit monotonous? 1t would
seem that some newspapers like to roll it
''like sweet morsel" and continually
harp upon "progressiveness." Hash
the state always moved along those
lines? One would think from this con-
tinual harping on that word that the
state had gone to the fermentation bow
vows, and that only by herculean efforts
of those who seem to have patent upon
this word progressive" can the state be
rescued from the depths to which it has
fallen! Let us hear less about this "pro-
gressive" within and more about the
good the grand old state has accomplished
and will continue to accomplish Beware

the terrible condition of things. AS a

A squirrel who lived in an old oak
heard some woodsmen at the foot saying
that as it was rotten at the heart they
must cut it down. Recommending on the
situation Jack Squirrel remarked
"If men were hacked and slashed about
Because their hearts weren't sound,
There'd few be left to WELD the axe
And beetle, I'll be bound"
Query: Where would the Tammany
leaders, who have brought about the fall
OF Sulzer, be if the axe was used that
way2
