BISHOPS HOUSE.

Rev. Dear Father:
This year it is our duty to make a
visit to the tombs of the Apostles and
place before the Holy Father a de-
tailed account of our diocese. These
ad limina visits which are part of that
indispensable unity that binds par
ticular Church to the Roman Church
and the bishops to the Vicar of Jesus
Christ who is the head go back to
remotest antiquity.
This unity which Christ promised to
His Church is her greatest inherit
ance and is ESSENTIAL to her very exist
ence. Take away that unity and we
would indeed be sheep without shep-
herd, blown about by every wind, a
disorder contradictory at the same
time to Divine perfection and to hui
man nature. Christ could not have
intended to found a Church such as
this but a Church so united that in
spite of difference of tongues and
races the Apostle could say: Unum
corpus multi sumus. Over that great
society He placed one who was to
take His place, to be His Vice Regent
and who is to continue His work
usque ad consummationem saeculi:
Thou are Peter and upon this Rock I
will build my Church. Yes, Peter was
to be the rock upon which the Church
was to rest. He was to be the source
whence all power comes, the centre
towards which loyalty and obedience
and love should converge.
The successor of st. Peter then is
the foundation of the Church founded
by Jesus Christ. To those who see
with human eye only weak founda-
ton, only a man feeble and aged, liv-
ing prisoner is his own palace, not
knowing whether he may die there
or be murdered or eXiled tomorrow.
They have named his the Prisoner of
the Vatican. And he is SO. But the
mind of this August Prisoner is free
and unfettered to soar beyond sun
and star to the throne of God whence
he derives knowledge to govern the
faithful in justice and holiness and
truth and lead them to everlasting
pastures.
What a strange figure in the midst
of the world is he whom we name
Sovereign Pontiff. Age has chilled his
strength, no armed legions await to
carry out his commands, and yet when
he speaks his words are borne on the
wings of the winds to the remotest
corners of the earth and his DEGREES
are listened to with reverence by
three hundred million Of human be-
ings We above all others know that
when he speaks his voice is the voice
of Truth The Ancients said, in the
silence of the night the Sage could
hear the music of the spheres accom-
plishing in space the harmonious laws

GAR D | NAILS IN GU RIA
ALL ITALIANS EXCEPT FOUR
MOST OF THE OTHERS ARE
coSMoPoLlTANs.

OF the thirty-one Cardinals in Curia
all belong to Italy except four: Their
Eminences, Cardinals Merry del Val
SPAIN, BiIlot (France), Van Rossum
(Holland) and Gasquet (England)
But, on the other hand, most of the
Italian Princes of the Church might
claim to be called cosmopolitan.
Serafno Vannute1li spent almost a
quarter of a century in Mexico,
Munich, Central and South America,
Belgium, Vienna; his brother Car
dinal passed over twenty years in
Holland, Belgium, Constantinople and
Lisbon; Cardinal Agliardi spent three
years in India and four in Vienna;
Cardinal Di Pietro was for ten years
in the Argentine, Brazil, Munich,
Madrid; Cardinal Gotti lived for three
years in Brazil; Cardinal Ferrata has
filled diplomatic Offices in Switzerland,
Belgium, France; Cardinal MartinelIi
was the second Apostolic Delegate to
the United States; Cardinal Falconio
was the third; Cardinals Rinaldini
Lorenzelli, Gasparri, Vico, Belmonte,
Serafni have had years of experience
in countries outside of Italy. Indeed
the only Cardinals of the Curia who
have not spent parts of their lives
abroad are Cardinals De Lai, Cassetta,
Della volpe, Cagiano, Bisleti, Pompili
Giustini, Lega and Secchi, all Of these
having passed their lives in various
Offices in the Roman Curia.

LETTER OF BISHOP O'REILLY

of creation: so when the successor of
st. Peter speaks, the heart of man,
when passion is silent, knows that in
the midsts of the world it hears the
voice of Eternal Truth. And we, Rev
erend Father, you and /, and those
who are faithful to us, know that
every sound that comes to us from
the aged prisoner, whether these
sounds be sad as those of suffering
soul or joyous as those of an angel,
we know they are always superior to
humanity, and ingratitude alone does
not discern this.
It is to this Pope we go to carry
our loyalty and obedience, yours as
well as mine, / as your messenger, to
offer to him without limitation the
undying attachment of our love and
submission. We shall tell him that
every day there arises to Heaven the
cry of admiration for the glorious vir-
tues that adorn his life. And further
more we shall tell him that every mo-
ment Of his glorious reign showed to
every mind not closed to truth that
with him the judgments of man count
for little, and the judgments of God
count for ALL
On my ad limina visit it is proper
that l observe the ancient custom and
make to the Holy Father an offering
of Peters Pence. Therefore I order
that the collection for this purpose
be taken up on Sunday, July 10Th. |
probably will be on the ocean when
this collection is taken up but the
names of the parishes and missions
and the amounts contributed by them
will be forwarded to me in time to
present it to the Holy Father. Iwould
ask as special favor that you be gen.
erous and urge your people to be gen
erous. l take pride in the open
hands and open hearts of the priests
and people of the Diocese of Fargo,
and it would be humiliating if this
year when I am to offer it with my
own hand it did not show a much
greater generosity on the part of
priests and people than usual.
And now in leaving the Diocese, lest
in the hazards of chance we meet not
again, | wish to say to the Reverend
Clergy, am pleased with you. Where
ever | may be the chain that binds us
will be a frightening chain and not a
broken one. | do believe there is lit
tie servility in the priests of this Do
cese. l believe they work in the
great taskmaster's eye," not for fear
only, but for love also. l hope you
may remember me before God, and
rest assured that no day will close
without the prayer being said that
you may advance in wisdom and in
grace before God and man." Let us,
you and l, never forget that the great
Teacher said: BE We perfect as your
Heavenly Father is perfect" and so
in turning to another day I bid you
farewell for a season and wish you
in the words so we'll known to you:
He who is just let him become more
just, and he who is holy let him be-
come more holy.
Faithfully yours in Christ,
FLAMES O'REILLY,
Bishop of Fargo.

tTicity, physiology and zootechnology
the erection of which was rendered
necessary by the progress of science,
others sill have been added, and the
Chairs, which in 1887 numbered nine
ty, have been extended to 1875.
Amongst the new schools founded
within the past few years are those

traditions of the Church, which in
every age has been the centre of cul-
ture and progress in the civilized
world, as well as spreading civiliza,
ton to the nations and races outside.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
IRISH PARTY CONFIDENT.
House of Commons, Westminster,

House of Commons, Westminster,
June "a, 1914.
Editor, "The Catholic Bulletin"
st. Paul, MINI.
Rev. and dear Father
have read your able article on our
work with much interest and shall
have much pleasure in handing it on
to Messrs. John Redmond and T. p.
O'Connor. You deal admirably with
the past and the present of our move
ment, and | trust your forecast of
what is to come will prove to be cor
rect. Many plans are daily laid to
upset our coach, but we have a very
careful driver who avoids the ruts
and foils our assailants. AS the days
go on we are getting nearer home,
but few indeed can imagine the
anxious moments we are passing
through. The eyes of the world are
fixed on Redmond and he feels it's
gaze. If by any chance he should
make false move, men who did little
themselves would be the first to twit
him about it. So it may be truly said
that the task of emancipating Ire
land is anything but an easy one.
With Gods help, however, all OBJ
stacles are being overcome, and the
Irish Party feels confident that, not
withstanding all the Orange bluff,
the Home Rule ship will get safely
into port, bringing Ireland's sons home
to make Irelands laws in Ireland.
I am, dear and Rev. Father,
Yours sincerely,
JOHN FITZGIBBON, M. P.

GERMAN SOCIETIES MEET
GERMAN MEMS SOCIETIES MEET
AT ANAMooSE, N. D., AND OR
CAME A sTAATs-vERRAN0-
OFFICERS ELECTED - EFT
NEXT YEAR AT KARLSRUHE.

The Diocesan Verband of German
Catholic Mems Societies of the Dio-
cese of Fargo convened On July and
2, at Anamoose, N. D.
Solemn High Mass was celebrated
at half past ten o'clock and sermon
on "The Duty and Mission of Cath
Ollie Man. was preached by Rev. H.
Decker.
After the parade of the societies at
two o'clock the Verband met in the
opera house in general meeting.
Among the most important subjects
discussed was the matter of the pro-
posed Staats-Verband Of all German
Catholics Mems Societies of the State
of North Dakota. The Diocesan Yer
band of Fargo has always taken spe-
cial interest in this most important
question, having several times before
discussed it in a very thorough
manner.
"The Catholic laity as a body" said
one of the speakers from Anamoose,
"Ias rights, duties and responsibilities
outside of their religious obligations.
They are members of the faith, but
they are citizens as we'll These obi
cations can be fulfilled by them alone;
and he who fulfills his obligations is
one who realizes that he is the child
of the Catholic Church and at the
same time a citizen of the state and
who is unf1inchingly loyal to both.
1.-THE Catholic laity have also rights,
duties and responsibilities in relation
to the civil government. That is why
we need a Staats-Verband, an organi-
zation to stand and fight for religious
liberty, liberty Of education, for a
social system based upon Christian
principles
The matter was well received and
the sentiments of the meeting embed
led in the following resolution which
was unanimously adopted:
Be it Resolved, That the Diocesan
Verband of German Catholic Mems
Societies of the Diocese of Fargo duly
assembled, do most heartily en-
dorse and approve the proposed
Staats-Verband Of all German Catho-
lie Mems Societies and do hereby
elect and empower Rev. A. Mittereder
of Foxholm to act as temporary pres
ident of above named Staats-Verband
and recommend to all local societies
of German Catholic men Of the state
of North Dakota the prompt and gen
erous assistance of this most import
ant and worthy object.
Karlsruhe was elected by the dele
gates as the place of the next annu
al meeting.
The officers of the Fargo District
Verband are: John Birtel, president;
A. Wald, vice president; F. Goldad

urer.
