STIRRING UP HATRED.

Gov. Osborn. OF Michigan. made a
remarkable address before the De-
troit Board of Commerce. He was
speaking about peace and religious
libertys and the blessings of a free
government. 81 am sorry that in
our day in this country" he said,
"there are men we all know who
would stir up hatred and strife be-
tween Catholic and Protestant. am
sorry to find that II Is being re-
Elected In great many portions OF
the United States. Now | am not
going to make a plea for or de-
tense of the. Catholic church. II
can take care OF itself. But | am
going to warn those Protestants who
worry themselves into an anti-Cath-
Ollie frame of mind. They will do
themselves and their country and
Professionalism more harm than they
will the Catholic church. No one
ever does an unjust thing without
being made unjust. No one ever
chcrisbes hatred without embittering
his own life."

Cardinal Farley has conferred the
title of Monsignor on Father Luke
j. Evers, rector of st. Andrews
church on Duane street. New York
City, and known to nearly all the
printers and newspaper men In the
metropolis. The elevation of Father
Evers is particularly gratifying to
his friends and parishioners among
the night workers of the city, for
whose benefit he established the
early Sunday morning mass at 1880.
He was the founder. of that service
and ii was largely due to his work
In that direction that the late Pope
Plus bestowed the title OF Mon
signor, through the Cardinal, before
he died. Father Evers had also
been commended by Pope Leo
XIII.

EVANGELIST IMPRESSED.

Thirty-five thousand four hundred
and thirty-two men marched in the
Holy Name parade at Scranton, and
Billy Sunday, the Protestant evan
gelist who is now holding revival
meetings throughout the country,
sent a telegram to the Scranton
Times, rapping religious bigotry and
speaking of the tremendous moral
force such a demonstration as this
procession was. His greeting fol-
lows:~
''Tt is a tremendous moral effect
upon a community and the nation
to see thousands of men marching
the street as protest against
disappearing God by taking his name
in vain. l am glad the day has
come when the attitude of the
Catholics against Protestants and
Protestants against Catholics is not
ruled by a spirit of bigotry and re-
venge. Give our love to everybody
in Scranton"
The Times, on the day following
the parade, had a commendation of
this act of reverence as it's leading
editorial, paying this tribute to the
baseball evangelist:
This message of good will and
appreciation from Protestant
evangelist in reference to a Catholic
demonstration is only a further in
stance of the many recent proofs OF
better and more tolerant feeling
among people of different religious
faiths. Right here it is but fair to
say that the visit of Billy Sunday to
Scranton had much to do with the
promotion of this better feeling.
The situation in this regard was
much better at the end of his seven
weeks campaign than at the begin
ming"
