CATHOLICS OF UNITED STATES
GIVE SUPPORT TO MISSIONS.

Catholics of the United States are
steadily advancing to first place in
support of Catholic missions of the
world, and supplanting France in
that respect. Ten years ago Catho-
lies of France gave $S15,OOO; five
years ago s675,00O. and last year, ac-
cording to reports just made public
$500.00'0. Ten years ago Catholics
of the United States gave $4,000 a
year, and last year, according to the
same report, $4,000.
The great givers to Catholic world
missions are among American dio-
ceses, New York with gifts last year
amounting to $157,000; Boston,
$4,000; Philadelphia, s53,00'v;
Cleveland, $500, and Baltimore.
s7,10o.
Not city in Catholic countries
like Austria, Italy, Belgium and
Spain comes anywhere near the gifts
of these generous Catholic American
cities. st. Louis far outranks Rome;
Minneapolis outranks Vienna, New
Orleans gives more than London, and
Catholics give more than do those of
Liverpool.

SAY ITALIAN PEOPLE KNOW
THEIR POWER.

Government Is Afraid to Crush Strike
Movement, Republicans Assert.
Two regions Of Italy, the Marches,
which comprises a portion of the for
mer papal States. and Emilia. east of
the Marches. which include 1850
square miles of territory and have a
population of 100000, held troops
the same as in war times during the
recent strike agitation. The trouble,
as already told, began after two So
cialist workmen had been killed at
Ancona and it led to a general strike,
which the government put down by
sending large bodies Of troops to
the disturbed regions.
The trouble, however, was prud-
emily repressed by the government
without violence or bloodshed of any
consequence. Carabineers and SOL
diers who used their arms in self
defense and in attempts to prevent
looting, the destruction Of public
buildings and acts Of vandalism,
were captured by the Republicans
and compelled to surrender their
swords. and were kept in prison for
five hours. They were afterward
cashiered.
The republicans are now declar-
ing that the army is no longer royal,
but national. The people. they say.
realize their power and sooner or
later will triumph. The leaders de-
clare that the Government does not
dare to crush the movement, and that
King Victor Emmanuel is investing
his money abroad.

MAKING AMERICA TRULY CATH

Result.
While the cry of Romish control

II we made no conversions the Cath
olics of the country will be dominant
in another generation.
The higher birth rate among Cath.
olics over our separated brethren will
alone make America Catholic. The
hardest part of it is that the preach
ers can do nothing to stop it. They
dare not institute campaign against
their people for not carrying out the
Scriptural injunction to increase and
multiply.
1t surpasseth understanding how
some American women have q holv
horror of child. They can fondle
blear-eyed pup, but a baby-it

the music of their pattering feet. But
In time the other kind of people will
move Uneven the foreigner and the

CATHOLIC SETTLEMENT HOUSE.

CATHOLIC SETTLEMENT HOUSE.
Word comes from the Catholics of
Chicago that they are going to build
a community house like Hull House
and run it in connection with old St.
Patrick's church at Desplaines and
Adams streets.
This social center is the first TO
be established in Catholic church
in Chicago and, according to DR..
Anna Dwyer, it is the biggest thing
Chicago Catholics have done.
Plans were discussed and a large
meeting for the benefit of the fund
was held in the gold room of the
Congress hotel. Among the speak
ers were Archbishop Quigley, who is
the real head of the movement; Gov
ernor Dunno. Mayor Harrison. Judge
Scully. Judge Hopkins, DR.. John y.

ELOPEIss MARRIED TWICE
Couple United First by Baptist Min

ASCCIs AuSn NY 1ElCSts
Newark, N. j., June 2O.-Mrs.
Katherine Ketcham, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Frank j. Schneider of Is
Oakland Terrace, and Harold r.
Ketcham, who eloped on June 3,
were married again today. The cere-
mony was performed in the rectory
of the Church of Our Lady Help of
Christians by the Rev. Edward M.
Ferrell.
The couple were married first in
Stelton, near New Brunswick, by the
Rev. s. v. Robinson, a Baptist min
lister. The second ceremony was nee
essary because Mrs. Ketcham is a
Roman Catholic and law of her
church is that Catholic married by
clergyman of another denomination
must be married again by Catholic
clergyman or suffer ex-communica-
tion.

Thus the struggle is getting gradu-
ally narrowed down to a fight over
impossible amendments which the
house of lords will make in amending
the bill and possible amendments
which Asquith and Redmond can ac-
cept. This is not a stage without
grave difficulties but, it is far less
difficult than some weeks ago. It
will be fought with ordinary parlia-
mentary weapons and not under the
shadow of bristling orange rifles and
mutinous soldiers. look, therefore,
to its ending in settlement not alto
gether ideal, but with assurance of
free and united Ireland.
This change in the situation is due
to many causes, but undoubtedly the
national volunteers are the chief rea-
son. The Tories, too, have helped to
make the Intervention of these vol
unteers more effective and more
striking by their illogical attempts to
force the hand of the government to
put them down.
The liberals rejoiced while Lord
Robert Cecil and other tory extrem-
lists who had given Godspeed to the
orange volunteer movement, COM
planned of the Irish volunteer as
illegal, unconstitutional, and calcu-
lated to intimidate the free will of
parliament. and now and then Lord
Cecil or other tories asked who began
and who were responsible for all this
illegality A tempest of cheers from
liberal benches supplied an effective
answer. In short. this debate imme-
diately helped the volunteer move
ment and WIS perhaps one of the
most vital turning points of the
whole struggle.
1t is at last realized that this ap-
peal of Sir Edward Carson to force
mas brought into being another and
far stronger appeal to force from the
overwhelming nationalist majority,
and what is perhaps as important,
has ranged on the side of this coun-
ter appeal all the democratic masses
OF England, driven to fury by the in
science of the oranagemen, by the
arrogance of the aristocracy, and
above all, by the attempt Of the tory
army to dictate to popular min.
1stry and the democratic house of
commons. Thus, party of law and
order has already met the nemesis
which always pursues such a party
when 1t appeals to force and law
lessness.

There were other Owenite expert.
ments. one at Yellow Springs. Ohio
another at Haverstraw. in New York
another at Coxsackie in the same
state. and third in Canton Ohio,
the Kendall Community.
Then followed the disciples of
Charles Fourier. His theory was not
purely Socialistic. but a kind of
compromise of a scheme Of harmony
between capital and labor in which
he gave to all laborers q choice and
variety of occupation, short hours
and sought to make labor attractive.
The various communities were called
Phalanxes. The famous Brook farm
at West Roxbury. Mass. was one of
these. There were many others but
in ten years or more they were no
more.
Another Frenchman, Ettiene Ca',-
OF, described what he called voyage
In Icaria which gave his ideal of a
community on the communistic and
socialistic basis. This led to the at
tempt to establish a settlement in
Texas. another one in Illinois, and
a third in Iowa, called Icarian COM
munities. but they too. faded out.
Mr.. Morris Hillquit, leading So
cialist in this country, reviews this
history and gives as his conclusion
that the socialistic principle is not
adapted at all to small communities,
that 1t cannot be the result of ,egis-
lation but that it must come through
economic necessity and through the
demand of one class, the labor class.
By acquiring the political power
they can and should vest all product
i've agencies in the government and
then will follow a regulation of
wages. prices and all economic con-
ditions with view to securing COM
munity happiness.
Il shall not stop to discuss social
ism in general or what it means, for
it might be difficult to give an accur-
ate definition. so varying are the
views of persons who call themselves
Socialists. But no one can read the
history of these isolated efforts in the
direction of regeneration of socie-
ty or the socialistic principle and the
abolition of the institution of pri-
vate property, without most well
come lesson.
They teach that destroying what
we have that is good in society and
that has been tested by time, in or
der to see a millennium which must
rest for it's successful achievement
on the elimination of all elements of
human nature as we know it and a
reforming of it that is possible only
after hundreds of centuries.
But while the new Harmony ex-
pertinent in Socialism was a failure,
the leading intellectual men and
women who were associated with it.,
many of whom remained in New
Harmony, preserving their high pur-
pose of serving mankind and give
their attention to reform, less am
bilious but more useful.

of men ever lent themselves to ~ e
a revolutionary outlook as the army
in the minds of both the English and
the Irish masses.
In England these officers produced
an outburst of popular fury such as
Is unexampled in our times. The
Curragh officers shook many of the
Oldest and apparently strongest in
stitutions to their very foundations.
They transformed a comparatively
unknown member of the house of
commons former private soldier
into popular hero who today
could get returned for score of con
stituencies; and it brought out in
the house of commons when that
gentleman-John Ward-spoke the
longest, the fiercest shout that has
been heard in the house FOR several
generations.
That shout did not die in it's effect
in the days that followed. 1t is true,
of course, that the state of panic to
which it brought the tory party has
to a certain extent disappeared; it is
true that the outburst of popular
rage which for the moment obliter-
ated every fissure in the progressive
ranks and promised an alliance de-
fensive and offensive between their
claims and labor has since been in
terrupted; all this is true, but yet
the effects of John Wards speech
still echo, and indeed the echoes will
never die.
1t is certain that the English army
of today is doomed; it may come
soon or it may come later; but a
democratized English army instead
of the tory army of today has taken
It's place among the purposes to
which the democratic forces are
pledged to devote themselves.
In Ireland the Curragh camp re-
volt helped to give birth to the na-
tional volunteers. 1t was known
that this movement of revolt was
largely inspired by Irishmen and
Irishwomen of the classes that have
always been opposed to Irish lib erty.
It came from landlords, from orange
men, from all the ranks and associa-
tfons of that ascendant party that is
responsible for the worst horrors of
Irish history-famine, exile, whole
sale eviction, wholesale immigration
and wholesale death. There was only
one answer to a challenge so insolent
and that was for the people to de-
fend themselves.
Another force which produced the
volunteer movement was the Unborn
military spirit of the Irish people. It
is known, of course, that the Irish
nation has always supplied a far
larger proportion of the British SOL
diery than any of the other races;
and the achievements of Irish SOL
diers in British battles also are we'll
known. Imagine the effects on such
people of centuries during which
they were forbidden by the law to
carry arms. To drill, to carry gun,
to exercise any of these primordial
rights of free nation have been put
down in Ireland for centuries by
every weapon the law can create.
There are still on the statute books
of Ireland innumerable enactments
which punish such acts as those of
the orange volunteers with lengthy
terms of servitude and public fog
gings; and often these enactments
have been put into force and fog
gfngs have publicly taken place.

First in Ten Years.

When Governor Eberhardt reads
his farewell message to the legisla-
ture Wednesday, Jan. 6, it will be the
first time in ten years that such a
message has been delivered in Min
nesota.
Never before in the history of the
state has such lapse Of time occur
red between such messages. This is
due to the fact that since Van SAINT
returned to private life in January
1905, no governor has been unseated
by election except Eberhardt.
John A. Johnson, who succeeded
Van SAINT in 1905, was reelected in
1906 and 1908 He died in 1908
and Eberhardt, then lieutenant gov
ernor, succeeded him automatically
Eberhardt succeeded himself in 1910
and 1912, but was defeated by w. E
Lee at the primary election in June
1914. The present governor will de-
liver his farewell address at the same
time that Governor Hammond reads
his inaugural at the joint session OF
both houses of the legislature the sec
ond day of the next session.
