PRIEsT-RIDDEN.

Referring to the charge often
made against the Catholics that they
are priest-ridden, the following sta
tistics taken from the Independent, a
Protestant publication, prove mighty
interesting:
From the elaborate statistics oil
the diverse Christian denominations
published, we gather the result that
the adjective = 'priest-ridden. at
tachea<lunno Catholics, but in its
- Protestant denomin-
atlo1e. These very statistics show
that the Catholic priests have the
largest parishes, and the Baptists the
smallest, that the Methodists have
four times as many churches and
three times as many ministers; the
Baptists nearly five times as many
ministers as there are Catholic
priests in the country, although they
have little more than one-half the
communicates. The result is that
there are only ninety Baptists on an
average to one of the churches; 10
Methodists to each of their congrega-
tons; while the average number of
Catholics to one church is not less
than 76S."

fame and prosperity. There is per-
haps no citizen of distinction in our
midst who is so universally loved as
Prof. Taft, and therefore his words
are eagerly listened to. In recent
interview he said among other
things:
81 am simply an observer of
politics. try to keep up with what
is going on by reading the news
papers, but aside from that my in
terest is chiefly in the constitution
and the independence of the
judiciary. and l am willing to devote
the rest of my life to those prin-
ciples."
That sounds like Taft. No per-
sonal aim, but the maintenance OF
the constitution is what he has sci
before himself as the ambition of his
life. Worthy task for a great
patriot! And so opportune besides
when every sort of wild theories are
threatening the stability Of oui
Government.

ONLY ONCE MORE.

On January IS, 1913, after a
debate which had lasted nearly two
months, the British House of Com
mons passed the home rule bill to its
third reading and final stage.
Immediately after its passage in the
Commons the bill was sent to the
House of Lords, where 1t was de-
bated for four days and then re-
jected. It then went back to the
Commons. In order to become a
law, in spite of its rejection by the
Lords, it must be passed three
times by the Commons without
important amendment. A bill thus
passed will receive the royal assent
despite the Lords veto. 1t has
already been passed twice by the
Commons, and upon its third
passage, this year, it will become a
law. That this will be done there
now seems no doubt.

DIsGUsTs JEWISH PEOPLE.

Every jew who has the interests
of the Jewish community at hear
will turn with disgust from the anti
Catholic movement which has beer
revived in the city of New York
There is not a single argument
which the anti-Catholic fanatics use
against the Roman Catholic church
that could not be used also against
the Jews. That so many Govern
ment Offices In the city and State OF
New York are filled by Catholics is
due to the fact that the American
citizen, whether Jew, Protestant or
Catholic, cares very little about the
religious belief Of candidates; and
Il is best, especially for us Jews.
that in the future the concern OF
voters about the religious belief OF
candidates should be as small as
ossible.-Jewish Morning Journal.

NOBODY KNOWS.

The full membership of the Col
lege of Cardinals is seventy, but
deaths have reduced the number to
fifty-six, and therefore the subject
Of holding another consistory is
again being bruited. Forty-four
have died during the present
pontificate and thirty-two have
been created by Plus X. The real
truth is nobody knows anything
definite about the next consistory,
the first authentic news of which
will be read in the Osservatore
Romano about month before the
date fixed for the event. Neverthe-
less there 10 every probability that a
consistory will be held during the
first half of the year, when the
vacancies caused by the ten deaths
that have taken place since the last
great consistory Of 1911 will be
filled.

TAFT's NOBLE WORK.

The Southern Guardian and other
papers note in friendly manner the
fact that since HIS retirement from
the Presidency William Howard Taft
has kept aloof from politics. As
professor at Yale University he ex-
pounds the mysteries of law TO the
statesmen of the coming generation.
However. his professorship is not
confined TO Yale-all the citizens of

The first death of the new year in
Louisville occurred at Fourteenth
and Broadway, when Edward Mess
mer was run over and killed by a
recklessly driven automobile. From
all the evidence 1t was another plain

PRAISES THE SISTERS.


When Lord Cry, late Governor
General of CaIaoa, was delivering a
speech at the laying of a cornerstone
in ,Ea' awayo, Africa, he recounted
some of his experiences as admins
traitor during the Matabele rebellion
in 1896, and paid beautiful tribute
to the Sisters who left precious
memories behind them for their
work in an African hospital. Many
brave, rough pioneer" said he,
with a heart of gold, blessed, as
he died, those gentle Dominican
Sisters. who appeared to him in his
dreams to be as the angels of
the opportunity now, fifteen or six
teen years after they have left. of
paying a tribute to the devotion
which they showed in the treatment
of the sick and suffering in the early
days of the history of this hospital.
No one can ever disparage the
Dominican Sisters without being
called upon by every true Rhodesian
pioneer to give a direct and an i'm
mediate account of his words. They
have eft a precious memory behind
them, and Bulawayo and the whole
of Rhodesia are the richer for this
heritage. l confess that by those
who like myself are lovers of the
picturesque and the beautiful, of
the atmosphere engendered by dis
ciplined obedience to authority, of
devoted self-sacrifice and of abso-
lutte disregard for self-interest in
concern for the welfare of others,
the passing away of the Dominican
Sisters was witnessed with deep
regret"

CONDUCTING oONCLAvEs.

successor to the Papal throne is

space divided into apartments, each
with three or four small rooms or
cells, in each of which are cruel

Access TO the conclave is free
through one door only, locked from
without by the Marshal of the con-
clave and from within by the
Cardinal Camerlengo. There are
four openings provided for the
passage of food and other neces-
saries. guarded from within and
without. Once the conclave begins
