K. of c. to Combat
Bigotry

New York, Jan. 14.-Plans for an
organized campaign against anti-Cath-
olic publications and movements have
been completed by special commits
sion named by the supreme body Of
the knights of Columbus.
The commission, comprising Colonel
P. H. Callahan of Louisville, Joseph
Scott, Los Angeles, Albert G. Begley,
Vancouver, B. c.; Thomas A. Lawlor,
Lansing, Mich, and Joseph G. Pelliter
of Boston, was in session in New York
for three days. It has an appropria-
tion Of $4,000 at its disposal and is
commissioned to bring legal action to
have the use Of the mails denied to
leading anti Catholic publications,
among those specifically mentioned be-
ing q weekly newspaper.
"The commission is charged with
the duty of investigating the reasons
and sources of the bigoted movement
against Catholics as evidenced by the
issuance of indecent and slanderous
publications and the organization Of
societies pledged to drive Catholics
out of public life," said Colonel Gala.

DENIED CONSOLATION OF MASS

DENIED CONSOLATION OF MASS.
The following item appeared in the
Catholic Times, Dublin. couple of
weeks ago:
"Quite recently the Tavistock Board
of Guardians decided not to allow Ger
man alien inmates in the House to at
tend divine service In the town on
Sundays. Then Father Weddick, the
priest in charge of Tavistock, wrote
the Board on the question, hoping they
would consider the matter favorably,
and the Rev. E. Rattenbury Hodges, a
Unitarian minister, gave notice to
move a RECESSION of the resolution.
This he did at the last meeting of the
Guardians, urging that the institution
was not a prison. and the Guardians
had no right to act as gaolers to these
persons, who had as much right as
any other inmates to go out at stated
hours, in conformity with the rules of
the house. A discussion took place,
but the board, by sixteen votes to
four, declined to alter its previous de.
cisiOn,"

ARCHBISHOP RIoRpAh,s WILL.

Archbishop Riordan died as every
good priest Of the Catholic Church de-
sires to die, without worldly riches.
His personal will disposes of his H.
brary and episcopal insignia, the lat
ter the gifts of friends at different
times during his long incumbency of
the metropolitan see of San Francisco,
and an interest in the modest estate
of his father consisting of certain
property in Chicago. Otherwise his
belongings at the time of his demise
were on par with those of an ordi-
nary layman in humble circumstances.
The Archbishop was man Of the
finest literary and artistic tastes and
discernment and his collection of
books, pictures and articles of virtue
was a very valuable one. Judged from
that point of view, and goes to enrich
the library of st. Patrick's Seminary,
Menlo Park.
His episcopal ornaments and insig-
MIA are bequeathed to his successor
through the Rt. Rev. Bishop Hanna.
The interest in the family estate re-
verts to his brother, Father Daniel
Riordan, and sister, Mrs. Lily, of Chi
cago.

shriner. Official Organ
Denounces Menace

In the December 1, 1914, issue of
THE Crescent" a magazine published
monthly in the interests of the Ma
sonic Mystic Shriners, appears the
following:
There is paper printed in Aurora,
which under date of September 26 did
the editor of "The Crescent" the
honor to say that 1.-THE Crescent"
gave several pages 10 boosting the
knights of Columbus in the September
issue.
On another page this same sheet
says: "an item contains three dis.
tinct knocks on that Sheet" and fur
ther says that knocking is pastime
which the editor of The Crescent
much enjoys, as we'll as an opportunity
to court the friendship of the knights
of Columbus"
Very frankly the editor of "The
Crescent" admits that he'd rather have
the acquaintance of any decent Knight
of Columbus than to meet the editor
of the sheet referred to-a sheet which
distorts facts and tries to ride to popu-
larity by appealing to and inaaming
the most Objectionable phases of sec.
tartan hatred.
We believe the sheet has a mission
I and its advertising columns discover
what that mission is.
Here "The Crescent" quotes "Men-
ace" advertisements, which it de-
scribes as "balderdash and rot on mar.
riage" and proprietary announce
ments, such as have been kept out of
all highgrade papers for years."
Continuing, "The Crescent" says:
Water will find it's level and the
filth of advertising will naturally seek
the filth of editorial expression. And
so the aforesaid sheet is at least con-
sistent in its filth
There can be no greater crime
against humanity than the playing on
the sick and credulous and assisting
them into the hands of the charlatan
and others of his ilk. There can be
no greater crime against the working
classes than the fictitious promises OF
large salaries for "easy work" and the

our distinguished editor of the sheet
will say that none but Protestants are
prosecuted and that the Catholics are
allowed to sell their wares uncllal-
lenged) is, thank fortune, making the
number less each week through its
fraud department.
The best thing for this sheet to do
is to cleanse it's own columns, purge
its own filth and then, If there is any
thing left of it to stand, turn the
small portion loose on the fellows in
the glass house.
That's all, friend.

FATHER STARK CHAPLAIN OF
CALIFORNIA SENATE.

Rev. Henry l. Stark, c. 8. p, was
unanimously chosen chaplain of the
senate to serve for the current ses.
sion of that body. The nomination
for this position and his election
without dissenting vote is a great
compliment to Father Stark person
ally, since he neither sought nor de.
sired the Office. The new chaplain is
a young man and one of the first
priests to enter the Paulist commu-
nifty from this Coast. He is active and
able in the work Of his missionary
calling and possesses prudence as we'll
as piety, . combination very much ap-
preciated BY legislators in the incum.

GIVES MISSION IN PROTESTANT
CHURCH..

Father Welsh, one of the Paulist
Fathers of San Francisco, had the
unique privilege of giving an entire
course of Catholic lectures in the
Congregational Church of Cheney,
Cheney, Washington. The local Catho-
lie Church was too small for the
number of people who wished to at
tend the mission. The Congregational
minister Of the town offered Father
Welsh the large church. The church
was crowded each night with non-C Cath.
olics, who were anxious to hear the
doctrines Of the Church explained.

Miners Pay Tribute to
Work of Priest
'ather McEachen Praised for Labor
Among Ohio Strikers.

The following notice appearing in
the United Mine Workers Journal Of
December 31,1914, speaks eloquently
for itself and requires no comment:
Bridgeport, Ohio, Dec. 26.
"Beg to give space for word Of
thanks to our very good friend, Rev.
Father McEachen, for the great, good
and generous work he has done for
the suffering miners and their families
in Eastern Ohio.
"Rev. Father McEachen in his un-
tiring endeavor has collected and dis.
tributed through the agencies of our
organization good and warm clothing
and other necessities to thousands Of
poor, wanting children. The many
words Of thanks the local officers re.
ceived at the time distribution was
made, surely belong to our dear friend,
Rev. Father McEachen, for he is Ger.
tainly the champion of the helpless.
FRITZ KRAATZ,
freSlQenC u. u. Id.
candy HOCHEvAR,
"Rec. sec., L. U. 49,"
The New York Call, Socialist paper,
in it's issue of Nov. Is, also spoke
warmly of the labors of the priest
among the starving strikers. Father
McEachen, SO the Call informs us, was
formerly a miner himself and is a
member of the United Mine Workers.
The tribute by the officers of Local
Union 13 to Father McEachen reminds
US of like praise spoken Of the Cana
dian clergy by the fraternal delegate
from the Canadian Trades and Labor
Congress before the American Fedora.
tion of Labor convention in 1913.
Speaking of the trouble for the French
workers after the English conquest Of
Canada, he said: II must give credit
to the clergy for having, under such
circumstances, stood by those who re-
mained, and for having shared with
them the hardships of the time.''
These are good things for the Catholic
worker and remember when the So
cialists seek to inform him that the
clergy are and have ever been the
enemies of the working class.

Father Stark will no doubt follow
closely in the footsteps of his former
superior and predecessor, Father Wy
man, the most satisfactory and re-
spected chaplain the Senate ever had.
The fact that the selection was ini-

lister of London, dated September T.,
1898, more interesting, as afterwards,
during the administration of Presi-
dent Thomas Jefferson, the United
States declared an embargo on all
English importations to this country
and against expectations from this
country to England. And therein it
is stated that reason and usage had
established that when two nations go
to war, those who choose to live in
peace retain their natural right to pur-
sue their agriculture, manufactures
and usual vocations, to carry the prod
uce of their industry for exchange to
all nations, belligerent or neutral as
usual, to go and come freely without
injury or molestation; and, in short,
that the war among others should be
for them as If it did not exist. Two
restrictions on this natural right had
been submitted to by nations at peace,
namely, that of not furnishing to
either party implements merely Of war
for the annoyance of the other, nor
anything whatever to place block
ade by the enemy. What those i'm
plements of war are had been so
often agreed and was so we'll under
stood as to leave little question about
them at that day. Almost every ma
tion had made a particular enumera-
tion of them in it's treaties under the
name of contraband. Corn, flour and
meal had never been included in their
enumeration, and consequently re-
mained articles of free commerce.
Accretion like that of the soil gave
employment to such proportion of
mankind, could never be suspended
for them whenever any two nations
should think proper to go to war.
/ That state of war then existing fur
nished no legitimate right to either of
those belligerent powers to interrupt
the agriculture of the United States
or to the peaceable exchange Of their
products with all other nations. If
any nation whatever had the right to
shut, against their products, all the
ports of the earth except her own and
those of her friends, she might shut
these also, and thus prevent altogether
the expectation of that produce.
Am. State Papers, Vol. I, F. 1872.
AS to the remedy for this, the
United States should demand a speedy
settlement of the question. Above all,
no unreasonable delay by way of ne
gotiations should be allowed. We can
never retract the position we have
taken, and our farmers, merchants,
manufacturers and shippers should be
afforded a speedy and effectual relief.
In case we fail in this, what is our
remedy? Not war, except as a last
resort, and only after a succession OF
repealed and defiant infringements of
international law, on the part of Great
Britain.
If Great Britain does not accede to
our demands we should do what
Thomas Jefferson did about 1908, as
remember, resort to strict en-
barge, prohibit all exports from this
country to Great Britain, and prevent
all importations of British merchan'
disc or products to this country. This
would be costly to ourselves, but much
less costly than war and quite as ef
fectual, as Great Britain relies on us
for her foodstuffs, not being herself q
self-sustaining nation.

The difference between disburse-
ments from revenue fund and total
expenditures is largely due to income
of trust funds, including also in cur
rent years the comparatively large
sums for buildings derived from spe.
cial levies and the state highway tax.
The difference between total ex.
penditures and total payments is
largely due to reinvestment of trust
funds.
The estimates for the current year
are unofficial, and do not pretend to
accuracy. They are reliable only as
showing the increase still continues.
Agitation for economy has been con-
Quoted by various bodies the last four
years with no little emphasis on the
need of reorganization. In the last leg

tional commission.
Appointment Of Commission
Last October Governor Eberhart
called together thirty citizens whom
he named as a volunteer commission
for the reorganization of the state
government, now popularity known as
the economy and efficiency commits.
sion-C. p. Craig of Duluth, Chair
man.
This commission met in November,
adopted O plan of study and a scope
of investigation, arranged with the
university for the expert assistance
of DR.. +. Dana Durand, former director
of the federal census, now head of
the department of statistics at the
university employed secretary and a
stenographer The members contribute
their time and bear their own ex-
penses. Other expense has been met
by voluntary contribution, except that
the stenographer is paid from the gov.
ernor's contingent fund.
The commission divided its field
into five groups of offices assigned to
give committees of five members each,
to be coordinated by an executive COM
mittee, also of five members.
The Problem.
1t early appeared that before any
practical measures of economy could
be considered with profit, plan for
administrative organization must be
devised and adopted. There is not any
scheme of accounting worthy of the
name and the business of the state is
not so organized that one can easily
be devised. Appropriations are made
by the legislature without much knowl-
edge of the comparative needs or
merits of the branches of the service
for which they are proposed. Elk.
penses are not classified by any sys-
tenn that throws any light on the wis
dom or justice of the appropriations,
and the states business is not so or
ganized that it can easily be accom-
plished.
Primarily, the problem of economy
and efficiency in the state government
is one of administrative organization.
The main fact is that there is not a
state administration. There are rath.
er sixty or seventy Independent gov.
ernments, unrelated, unconnected,
each hanging by its own string"
each coming to the legislature for
its appropriation without regard to
the problem as whole. Broadly speak.
ing there is no way Of obtaining CO.
operation between the several depart
ments, though there is a great deal
of voluntary cooperation, and there
is no way Of comparing their work,
no control over their management.
