The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1917-01-18

Our FRIEND GARDEN of the Souris Mes
seng Z is besides himself and accuses the Cour-
ant editor of multitudinous political flip fops,
of being after the dollars and cents, of being
imported to Bottineau Co. by some Hanna
section bosses,'' of doing valiant service as a
Hanna apologist, land a number of other things
that are not nice. Surely Garden rust have
had a better bringing up than his Indifferent
handling of the truth would indicate. But for
a poor country editor to be accused Of being
after the money'-by an undertaker-is the
limit Of humiliation.

As an Investment Gives Aid When
Most Needed.
If fire should destroy your residence
and household effects what would be
your loss? Would you lose all, or
have you an insurance policy cover
ing part of the loss? Fire, like
DEATH strikes at unforeseen times,
strikes generally when unexpected
and it .behooves all to seek and secure
the best protection. ~
The insurance agencies, whose adj
vertisements appear on this page
would be glad to call upon you, giving
YOU the cost on fire, water and lorna
do insurance and write you a policy
taking effect Immediately. Perhaps
you have policy that has been in
force for some time and you wish the
amount increased-they too will do
that for you.
Insurance costs little, but gives aid
when most needed.

GUIDE RIGHT
A VERY TIMELY BIT OF PRE-
PAREDNESS.

A most effective and timely con-
tribution to the forces of national
preparedness is the latest publication
issued by the Central Bureau of the
Central Verein. 1t is in the form
of compact and attractive booklet
entitled Guide Right, or Funda-
mental Tactics against the Soldiers
Worst Enemy" IN a popular and
still sanely conservative manner it
points out the dangers arising for
the young soldier from the menace
of immortality, which unfortunately
is very real and serious in camp and
field life.
Catholic societies can do no better
service to the young men going
forth to battle for the country than
to provide each of them with copy
OF this timely little publication. The
appearance of compact and safely
and sanely written treatise on SO i'm
portant and delicate subject is a
step in the right direction. 1t marks
the beginning of a very effective well
fare work for our Catholic soldier
boys Copies can be secured by writ
ing to the Central Bureau of the
Central Verein, 201 Temple Bldg, ST..
Louis, Mo. The price, cents, makes
it easily available.

FROM BARRY TO BENSON
HISTORY OF THE AMERICAN
NAVY SHOWS PROMINENT
PART PLAYED BY CATHOLICS.

Periodical literature and the daily
press have much to say. these days,
about the past and present of the
American navy, and it is a noticeable
fact that, almost without exception,
when they desire to include the his
tory OF the American uavy-they use
words similar to these. from the
days of Paul Jones to Admiral
Dewey" We suggest correction
from Commodore John Barry to Ad-
miral Benson Jones was not the
father of the American navy. and
Dewey is no more. Can it be that so
many of these writer's know. but little
or next to nothing of Barrys Very
likely, observes the Catholic Column
bian.
A young man. DESTROYS OF posting
himself on the life of Barry, recently
applied to the librarian of a public
library in one of our cities for some
directions, as he noted nothing in the
catalogue that would aid him. and was
informed by the librarian that said
librarian had never heard of Com
modore Barry. The young man was
asked where he had got hold of such
name. and he replied in his reader
when he went to school. What
SCHOOL," was put to him and the reply
was, a Catholic school, No wonder
press writer's know but little of Barry
since librarians do not, and less won

great figure of our early navy. We
move to amend the statement from
Jones to Dewey by inserting from

IRISH CONVENTION
1o1 MEMBERS TO SELECT THEIR
OWN AiSMAN-EVERY CLASS
TO BE REPRESENTED.

The convention to be convoked
by the British government in an at
tempt to solve the Irish problem
will be composed of 101 members
representing every walk of life in
Ireland and will be presided over by
a chairman of it's own selection, or,
failing that, by a man chosen by the
government. The convention will be
purely an Irish assemblage. The
county, borough and urban district
councils will select their own repre-
sentatives. The churches will be rep
resented by their Bishops-in the
case of the Presbyterians by their
moderator; while the chambers of
commerce of Dublin, Belfast and Cork
will name their own delegates, as will
each political party.
In announcing the composition of
the convention in the House of Com
mons, Premier Lloyd George said the
government had thought to make it
Ireland, this plan including an invita-
ton to the county councils and to
each of the borough councils to send
its chairman.
The fifteen members to be nomi-
mated by the government, said the
premier, would be taken from among
leading Irishmen of all sections. The
government, he added, would prefer
that the convention nominate it's own
chairman, but the government was
prepared to nominate one, if neces-
sary.

Reviewing the wonderful efforts
made by Irish Catholics in the build
ing of churches, The Builder says:
"Caeteris paribus, the building of
Armagh, Queenstown, and other of the
greatest churches of Ireland is as re-
markable as the completion of st.
Peters at Rome or st. Pauls in Lon
don, as the one was made possible
by the offerings of half of Christendom
and the wealth of medieval Rome,
and the other was assisted by the
imposition of many dues by the City
of London and the funds of the Estab-
lished Church, while the cathedrals OF
Ireland have been chiefly built out of
the offerings of the peasantry of Ire
land. Armagh Cathedral has cost
G250,000 up to the present time.
Among other Cathedrals which have
been built in Ireland are those of
Queenstown, which stands like SEN
tinel Oh the fairway of the great
Atlantic liners, and on which e250,00
has been expended; Killarney fine
example and pleasing Cathedral, cost
G1S0,000; and Monaghan, built at a
cost of 9150,000.
Kilkenny, a simple and pleasing
cathedral, cost 100000, and about the
same amount has been expended on
the Cathedral at Limerick. Other
Cathedrals have been erected in Lon
denderry, Thurles, Letterkenny. Sligo,
and Loughrea, and Longford, besides
long list of parochial churches in
every district of Ireland, the erection
of which has been made possible both
by gifts of money and offerings in
kind, taking the shape OF material
carriage, etc. 1t is stated that in the
Diocese of Dublin alone no less than
G751,S34 has been spent upon church
building during the last fifty years.

oalled-has decided that

called-has decided that
it is not.
What brought the question before
their lordships was an appeal by rela-
tives of man who died recently and
who in his will bequeathed large
sum of money to the Secular Society"
-an organization that is composed of
perniciously active infidels. The ap-
pellants contended that. as the object
of the society is to destroy Christian
ity, it has no legal right to exist. and
is, therefore, incapable of lawfully re-
ceiving a bequest. After an exhaus-
tive review of authorities on the sub
iect. the Lord Chancellor, who is the
president of the committee of Law
Lords held that the contention of
the appellants was we'll founded. AL.
though he expressed the opinion that
a temperate attack on religion. in
which the deceneies of controversy
were maintained, did not constitute
the crime of blasphemy, he also held
that Christianity was part of the law
of the land, and that civil polity of the
nation was to a large extent based
upon the Christian religion; that the
courts would not help in the promo
ton of objects contrary to the Chris.
tian religion apart altogether from any
criminal liability; and that, If the law
of England was to be altered on the
point, the change must be effected not
by judicial decision, but by the act of
the legislature" But the other four
Law Lords" took the opposite view,
one of them declaring: with all re-
spect for the great names of the law.
yers who had used it, the phrase
Christianity is part of the law of Eng
land is not law, but rhetoric" The
appeal was consequently dismissed.
So by majority of four to one the
highest judicial authority in England
has definitely decided that there is no
Christianity in the law of that coun-
try.

Wages in Colonial Days.

The farm laborer received one dol
lar per week, plus house to live in
and food for himself and family, and
he was allowed to cultivate for him
self as large a field as he chose and
to keep all the livestock he cared TO
own. Common labor was paid twenty
five cents per day which was more
than sufficient to satisfy the standard
Of living. These wages remained the
standard until the coming Of the
Americans, and the railroads caused
steady advances to rates totaling
sometimes several hundred per cent
greater than formerly paid.
The Spanish government collected
tribute from the Indians. Every
male between the ages of eighteen
and fifty, was expected to pay from
fifty cents to a dollar and a quarter
per year, the amount varying with
the needs of the Treasury. Special
instructions were issued, however, to
excuse the payment if the Indians
could not afford it. The result of this
provision was a constant wonder to
the Treasury officials that the amount
collected was so small. This collec-
