in the past. For considerable period,
and to some extent still, the section
of the country in which Archbishop
Ireland lives has been a center for the
disaffected and the reasonable, and
all such have found in this distin,

fight as hard for America when OPP
posed to pro-German or anti-American
propaganda as can any soldier in the
trenches when facing liquid fire or
machine guns. In addition to this
patriotism and elevated character,
Archbishop Ireland possessed mental
endowments that have been equalled
by but few Americans of this genera

good work, and his has been an in

Their wars, their wounds, their battle

Shall cease in Love, for which this
glory stands;
Where CROPPED through ages Red; no.

For hint of life when this life dis

Moved by the myriad miracle of
spheres
To yearn for wigwams woven not with
hands.
From far Hill, the One, True, Tire
less Chief,
Dying twixt penitent and callous thief,
And scorn from lips for whom in love
He pleads,
Speaks here of ageless wigwams
angel-spun,
Beyond the arrows of the outmost

Where braves redeemed are decked
with stars as beads.
In death, Captain in the Great Cru

Of light and trumpets and the Mystic

Which wounds to heal the nations for
the Lord,
Beneath this spacious dome in state is
laid,
That loving reverence to his rest be
paid;
Gone his keen soul to its august re-
ward
Where the full fountains of Gods
grace are stored
With love and mercy, in that grace
displayed.
In life, this Captain, sighted as a seer,
Attuned to skyey bugles his quick ear,
Fought the good fight; his blameless
sword laid down,
He passes from this outpost of the
Faith,
Through cleaning portals of illus

A truly good man is gone, and Amer
leans, regardless of creed or quality,
will mourn for the death of John Ire
land. A champion of liberty, his adj
vocacy of the free school, efforts to
secure the spread of enlightenment,
labors for the reconciliation of re-
ligion with the spirit of the age in
which he lived, his simplicity of life
and his answering devotion to the
cause of purity, brought to him such
activity that it has been said his life
was las busy as the Pope's and as
stormy as statesman's." John Ire
land had many worldly honors as we'll
as those bestowed upon him by the
Church, but none fitted him so well
as the sobriquet given him in France
few years ago, that of "the peoples

Few American citizens throughout
the 142 years which have elapsed
since the signing of the Declaration
of independence have earned the
respect, esteem and love Of as many
people as had John Ireland, Arch
bishop of the diocese of st. Paul.
Militant for that which he believed TO
be right, defender of his Church
whom every Catholic respected, even
though Of different opinion on GER
tain Church policies, Archbishop Ire
land became a figure of world repute,
and his position in Europe was quite
as exalted as within the environs of
his own diocese. Whenever he moved,
whether in the palaces of princes or
the homes of the humblest of his par
isnioners, he was always the same
lovable man, sympathetic yet forceful,
commanding but never domineering.

Archbishop Ireland strongly cham
pioned religious freedom in America.
He was democratic to degree, visit
ing royalties and dignitaries in Eng
land, France, Ireland, Belgium and
Italy in 1900 He represented himself
as simply an American prelate." He
made frequent attacks upon the falla-
cies of Socialism, and did not hesitate
to defend capital when occasion arose,
He said at a dinner in st. Paul: The
Church is no enemy of wealth.
Wealth we'll used is gift of the Al
mighty"

Many persuade themselves that they
have no true sorrow for their sins if
