TRIALS OF CHURCH REVIEWED
Discusses TribHIasiens Through Which
Institution Went In the Early
Centuries.

THE Trials and Triumphs of the
Early Church" was the theme Of an
interesting lecture which c. A Buschle
Of this city gave last evening at the
semi-monthly meeting of Allouez
council, knights Of Columbus, in Co
lnmbus hall
Mr.. Bueschle. who has made a deep
study Of the Catholic church, espeei-
ally that period covering the first FIVE
years of its existence. gave a compre-
hensive review of the trials which that
institution has faced in the past.
He. discussed the various forms OF
what he called false doctrines, which
had assailed the church in the early
centuries, and gave short sketch OF
those that led the movements and pio-
neers Of the church who opposed
them
The speaker stated that it was his
| purpose in giving his address to create
a general interest among the mem
bers OF the church in its history, max
ing the unique statement that preju-
dice against the church can be traced
/ largely to lack of thorough knowledge
of the doctrinal teachings and histor-
. ical facts of the church on the part OF
many of its adherents.
/ Hits Social Ambition.
/ In closing Mr.. Buschle, in attacking
/ the desire of communicates to scale
/ the social ladder to the detriment Of
their religious natures, quoted Car
dinal Woolsley's famed admonition tC
/ Oliver Cromwell in Henry VIII" 81

WASHINGTON. Dec. i.-The
republicans can name a yellow
dog and win.
This is the profound convic-
ton OF the party leaders who
nominated Taft three years
ago. Senator Penrose, who was
one Of these leaders. voiced
this opinion in an interview
published recently in Dallas.
Tex. newspaper.
Penrose was In Dallas with
the Liberty bell mot Intended
as a ioke).
ANY republican who is nomi-
mated for president" said the
Pennsylvania senator. will defeat
Woodrow Wilson-certainly any re-
publican who has been mentioned
for the nomination thus far"
The senator disposed OF the pro-
eressiye party with wave OF his
hand
THAT is all gone. They h-
blown up; they don't count" he
said.
The interesting thing about the
Penrose statement is the fact that
Penrose believes il. and viii act &C
cordingly.
There is not a particle OF doubt
that Penrose, Barnes. Murray.
Crane. Root. Jim Watson. Tawney.
Hilles and other members OF the re-
publican national committee are
planning TO disregard the progress
sive element and name some man
like Weeks OF Massachusetts or
Burton OF Ohio as the republican
candidate.
The elimination OF Root has re-
suited already In the solidifying ct
Roots strength for Weeks.
Root and Lodge are now out for
Weeks, whose campaign is being
managed in part by gentlemen con
nected with the shoe machinery
trust.
Hughes is eliminated. and the
game becomes more simple.
The republicans evidently do net
intend TO accept Roosevelt's chsl-
longe to name n progressive like
Cummins. or Borah. which means
that the progressives will name
Hiram Johnson or some man equal
~ good, will maintain their party
solidarity and conduct a vigorous
campaign. resulting in the protnt
success OF Woodrow Wilson.
