hitting the people Of cn9 mission

Most Blessed Sacrament.
The requests for Monstrances come
from all over the country From lit
tie town in Nebraska, self-sacrificing
priest. who is giving the best years Of
his life to mission work, asks humbly
for the necessary articles for Benedic-
ton and the Exposition of the Blessed
Sacrament, after the weekly Mass.
From Texas comes another special re-
quest from one of the missions where
the Mexican children attend the week
ly Mass. From Florida there is still
another. From almost every state in
the South and West have come these
requests, and from little village in
Illinois there comes a graphic presen-
tation of the needs of one mission par
ish. a
The urgency of all these requests
forces the Society into this special APP
peal in order that the mission chapels
may have the necessary articles for
the proper observances of the Church.
Many of these gifts have been passed
through our Society in memory of
some deceased relative or friend
Could there be a more fitting tribute
to the memory of deceased dear one
than the donation of a Monstrance for
some mission chapel?
Will you not help, to at least some
small degree, in aiding the Society to
secure these articles for the self-sacri-
ficing priests of the missions? Ad

that Senator Penrose is willing to &C

We do not doubt that this is true. In

Penrose has no monopoly of such an
opinion. All Republicans hold to IT,

a fortnight before the convention
meets. that this. that that or the other
man is the wisest choice? There
has been no consultation among the
men who must make the nomination.
Very first state delegations even
have met for conference.
Therefore. it SENS to us that the
wisest thing politically is to wait
until the convention assemblies, to
hear then the reasons why the parts
ans of the various candidates think
their man is the best to choose. to
weigh the probabilities of the cam
paign which will follow, to adjust
such differences as may appear-and
then to nominate the man who ap-
pears most likely to attract all the
voting elements which are opposed
to the continuance OF Democratic
