A TREMENDOUS influence IN favor OF
prohibition is found in the increasing &C
tivity OF the Catholic Church in this great
movement. Priests and laymen are alike
bestirring themselves as never before,
and societies are being formed for more
efficient service in the temperance cause.
At meeting of the Catholic Total Alb
stiuence Union in Pittsburg last week
Bishop Donahue, OF West Virginia, who
has been holding himself in leash, made
a powerful address in which he advocated
State and national prohibition. He de-
cared that the country wants prohibition
and predicted that il is bound TO come
within short term of years. He said;
at is only question OF time when
Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey and
the other Eastern States will align them
selves on the side OF prohibition, as have
West Virginia, Georgia and other States.
| want TO say that it will be happy day
when this has been done. Years OF the
past show that the liquor traffic has work
ed AGAINST the good OF the country"
When the great Catholic Church gets
intellectually into the fight the time oil
the saloon is limited indeed.

A BIT of excitement was caused the
first Of the week by the publication OF a
story 10 the effect that the German gov
erument has been furnishing enormous
sums OF money TO create German Senti-
meat in the United States, to damage
factories manufacturing arms and ammu-
nniOnS for the Allies, and TO manipulate
affairs generally in favor of the German
cause. We do not know just how much
truth there may be in this charge, but that
the marvellously efficient and comprehen-
sive plans OF the TeutonS cover practi-
caly the whole earth is undoubtedly true.
and we are quite ready to believe that the
United States is swarming with agents OF
the German government who have I'M
limited resources at their command
There is growing belief that if the
Germans shall win in the present war
they will not be satisfied with dominating
Europe, but that The United States and
other desirable portions OF the earth will
become the objects OF their desires. This
may or may not be the case-but will
anyone dare set a limit TO German ambi-
lion If she shall triumph over the nations
with whom she is now at war ?

The number OF "jitney" boats from
Wilmington to Plant No. /. at Car

since the smaller boats were forbid

of the larger boats also have been
lefuaed permission to land there and
at present there are but seven regu,

pier will not be finished, it is said
until the last part of December
