registering mild opposition to the un'
usually rainy weather and especially
during the month of March when the

W. O. Radkey, at Prince Albert Sas-

One often hears the remark about
the rains in Oregon, but here from May
20 to June it rained heavy every day

in that period, the rainfall was over
four inches. On the night of June l
we had heavy white frost putting

NEW BISHOP OF CORK.

DR.. cohaIan Succeeds Bishop O'cal-
Iaehan.
The Right Reverend Daniel Coha-
Ian, Auxiliary Bishop of Cork, has
just been appointed as successor in
that see to the Right Reverend Bish-
op O'Callaghan, who died last Deem
Der.
Bishop Cohalan was born in County
Cork in 1858, and received his educa-
ton in Cork and at Maynooth. He
was ordained in 1882. After serving
as professor for several years in diff
ferent colleges he was appointed pro-
lessor Of theology at Maynooth in
1886, where he remained until 1914,
when he was named Auxiliary Bish.
op of Cork, and Titular Bishop of
Vaga. He is the author of a number

which is only one-fifth of the popula-
ton and yet takes more than one-half
the places in the bureaucracy. The
Irish Privy Council consists of forty
three Episcopalian Professionals, ten
Catholics and nine Presbyterians;
eight out of every ten deputy-lieuten.

Through their clubs and associations
this small and powerful class are now
governing Ireland.
Some days ago attention was drawn
by prominent writer's to the promi-
nence with which Mr.. Dillon has kept
himself in the limelight recently,
while at the same time Mr.. Redmond
has studiously kept aloof, having taken
no part in any public function for
weeks past, not even in the reception
of the Colonial visitors.
A partition organ, published in the
Midlands, suggested fortnight ago
that ''as there was no real leadership"
Mr.. Dillon should become leader This
week the same newspaper says:
I'VE should have real active leader
ship from the Irish Party. The coun-
try undoubtedly rallied to Mr.. John
Dillon, NJ. p, after the rebellion, and
in very real sense he saved the party
situation. Mr.. Redmonds policy of
active opposition to the Government
has been largely failure"
To Be Pushed Aside.
So Mr.. Redmond is, if possible, to
be pushed aside, and Mr.. Dillon is to
assume the actual leadership.
Bachelor" of the illustrated Sun
day Herald writes: THE retirement
of Sir Walter Nugent, NJ. P, from the
directorate of the 'Freeman's Journal
has caused mild sensation in Irish
political circles. Sir Walter belongs
to what may be called the Redmond
wing of the Nationalist Party, and his
withdrawal is taken to mean that the
always moderate influence of Mr.. Red
mond is slightly waning.
I'm the meantime" continues Bach
elor,' II hear of a reconstruction by
which well-known Parliamentary
journalist will go over to Dublin to
look after the paper, while Mr.. Dillon,
who has long guided its policy behind
the scenes, will be given the title of
political adviser to the editor"
The above writer makes no mention
of the dismissal of editors Gncluding
the editor of the "Freeman'D on the
tacit understanding that jobs will soon
be provided for some of them at the
public expense, and the anxiety and
CONSERVATION amongst the staffs, many
of whom have not yet been re-em-
ployed, at what is taking place and
what may occur next.
Colonel Arthur Lynch is adding to
the perpleXities of the situation by de-
veloping leadership aspirations and is
said to be contemplating a tour of
the United States.

Death of Venerable Jesuit Hastened
by Outrages Of a Frenzied
Lisbon Mob.

Another priest, venerable Jesuit,
has been added to the list of victims
of the barbarity of the Portuguese
revolutionists. Father Machado, aged
seventy, who was we'll known through
out the whole of Portugal as "The
APOSTLE" died after his arrival at Glib
raltar. His death was accelerated by
the outrage inflicted on him by mobs
in Lisbon and by the privations lie
suffered while incarcerated in the ar
