Court Defines Church Rights.

The supreme court handed down a
decision denying court examination of
Archbishop Sebastian G. Messmer,
Milwaukee, in the case brought
against the Catholic prelate and a
number of Catholic bishops by the
Kuryer Publishing company, Milwau-
kee is justiiable. The case arose over
the issuance and circulation of a pas
toral letter by Archbishop Messmer
and Bishops Schwebach, Els, Fox and
Schinner, forbidding Polish Catholics
to read or tolerate in their homes the
paper published by the company. The
KuryeT company entered suit for dam
ages, and the court holds that the
churchmen acted within their rights
as the letter simply forbade the read
ing Of the paper, matter of church
discipline, and did not mention COM
mercial contracts or business rela-
tons.

A GERMAN

There has been some 'frightful-
ness practiced in this country BY
radical elements ~picturing the imag-
mary menaces to the United States
when the war closes. In some quar-.
tiers there has been an insistent alarm
sounded as to Germany's designs upon
us. and that she is interested in
fomenting feeling in Mexico against
US. OF course these views have been
given a wide circulation in Germany.
n have probably done much to make
n bad situation worse. The natural
effect Of such representations is that
we hold Germany To be our mortal
enemy. Under these circumstances
the speech OF tho German chancellor
in the ReiChstag clears the atmos-
phere to a considerable extent. He
denied most cmphatically hat Ger
many la any aggressive intentions
towards the United states. or tina she
was contemplating territorial acQui-
sitions of any character whatsoever
on this hemisphere. We cannot do
otherwise II a accept these repre-
sensations as official and as in unqual-
ified denial ol the ooncocuons of the
alarmists who would have US believe
more ~ OF Germany than We do with
regard To her submarine warfare.
