A SEVERE ARRANGEMENT.

Catholics have often been ac-
cused of saying very hard things
about the public school system, but
they have never attempted to I'M
dermine its foundation so COM
pletely as President Miles of the
Wisconsin State Board of Educa-
ton and Chairman of the Com
mittee on Vocational Education of
the National Association of Manu-
facturers, who criticised educa-
tional methods before the annual
Conference of the National Cor
poration Schools Association of
Philadelphia in the following
terms: ''In more than forty of the
forty-eight states, public educa-
ton is not system but semi
ignorant, headless tumble. J" Other
speakers, many of whom are con-
nected with large industrial and
other corporations denounced
the waste, inefficiency, and IN
competency of the present system
of education. Apart altogether
from the religious phase Of the
question, is not this indictment a
sufficient reason for Catholics to
build and maintain their own edH-
cational institutions none Of
which have ever been made the OBJ
ject Of so severe a criticism?

DOMAIN OF TEMPERANCE.
SAVINGS BANKS AND PRoHIRI-
TON.

There is a very decided connection
between the savings bank and prohi-
bition. In Knox county, Maine, more
than one-half of the total population
men, women and children-are de-
positors in these savings institutions,
and though the population of that
county has not increased in twenty
years, the deposits in the savings
bank increased by about $3,000,000.
After Oklahoma's first two years as
a prohibition state, the deposits in the
bank increased more than $4,000, 900.
In Springfield, Ohio, in a single bank
ing institution, the number Of deposit
tors nearly doubled in three months
after the closing of the saloons. In
Battle Creek, Michigan, after eigh-
teen months of prohibition, there was
an increase Of over million in de-
posits. And the same is true in every
state where prohibition or local option
has chance.

A NATIONAL DISGRACE.

In it's dealings with Mexico the
United States stands disgraced
before the world. Never before
has the escutcheon of it's national
honor been so furnished. The
American people have been
shocked beyond expression at the
revelations lately made in the
public press regarding the cause
of the present strained relations
between this country and Mexico
and the manner in which the
United States has fagrantly
violated every principle of inter
national diplomacy in its negotia-
lions with a sister republic.
These revelations make clear to
the average reader the lengths to
which so-called "big business y
will go to promote its own inter
ests at the expense of national
honor. Soulless corporations do
not hesitate to drag the country to
the verge of war, compromising
the sacred principles for which
America is supposed to stand and
bringing ruin and desolation to an
inoffensive people to glut their
lust for gold.
But this is not the worst feature
of the Mexican situation. The
United States, knowingly or un-
knowingly, has allowed itself to
be placed in the position of
abetting the so-called Constitu-
tionalists in their unholy war OF
rapine and plumber, and especially
of aiding cut-throat like Villa
whose outrages against civiliza-
ton and religion cry to heaven for
vengeance.
Words cannot describe the hor-
rors of the guerilla warfare which
he is waging in Mexico, apparent
~ not only with the implicit ap-
prevail of the American govern
ment, but with its cooperation. II
