ABSENT AND NOT VOTING"

Sfs IA L
"a movement is on: foot to- secure the election
Of q loyalist congress" Excerpt from Washing
ton correspondence .
N. Yes,5you can bet your bottom dollar that there
is such 8 movement on foot! And it's not confined
to Washington, either. Not BY . long shot It's
on foot right here at home. And it's on foot IN
every state, county, village and hamlet in the
United States.
4 The folks have watched the present congress
as they have never watched another since civil
war days. They have drawn their own conclu-
sions and they are in first class shape to be intel
ligently careful about the next congress-the con-
gress that will be elected this fall.
All Of which means this that mere "self-as-
sessed" patriotism isn't going to get by. Every
man in the house and the senate now who expects
to run again this fall has got to do more than Just
talk about his love for his country He has got
to dig up his recent record and show what he
has done for his country.
The folks will be able to judge what that rec
ord is worth. If it's clean one, then there's
good chance for Mr.. Candidate If it isn't-if it
is tinged with cheap politics and petty jealousies,
even in lieu Of out and out prot ermanism then
God help him. >s }s N Ss4s IS
Here's something to figure on in this connec-
tion "a candidate can't say simply, Il didn't vote
against the war, the draft, the shipping bill, the
appropriation measures, or the Overnan bill" he
has got to make it more than negative. He has
rot to show what he worked and voted for. He
has got to prove that he has not been an obstruc-
ZIONIST in fact, even if he has managed to dodge
the roll call in number Of cases.
The practice Of certain senators and congress
men in doing their dirty best to block war mea-
sures both openly on the floor and in secret CLOAK
room" conferences for days on end, and then duck
ing out at the last minute to avoid going on record
when the vote is TAKEN has become notorious. The
country knows all about it. So that absent and
not voting" is going to be one Of the worst posi-
bic albis this fall.

4 TAFT AS. A GREAT TEACHER

For generations one American problem has
been what to do with our ex-presidents. Finally
one Of them is solving the problem in simple,
wholesome American way. Instead Of snarling
and swapping alta president who belongs to the
opposition party, VIM. H. Taft has calmly ana
earnestly tackled any job that offered chance
to help wake up America and win the war Tor
democracy. .
He has temporarily given up his work Of teach
ing Yale students the law, in order that ne might
teach the whole American people how patriotic
ex-president can make of himself live asset
instead Of dead liability.
Ex-President Taft now works at desk in
Washington, bringing to bear his ability and COM
mon sense on one of the vital war problems
labor. That's democracy.

ON SCROLL OF FAME
THE NAME OF ANOTHER
LAFAYETTEtJS WRITTEN.

In the Official Journal issued in
Paris, there is striking citation of
Count Gilbert de Lafayette who was
killed in the fighting in Champagne
on June IL. The young man was a
son of the Marquis de Lafayette and
descendant of the Lafayette OF
Revolutionary fame. The citation
which praises the high moral value
and rare courage of the young man, is
as follows
As a scout he obtained clear and
exact information from the first line
when they we're under the most VIC
lent bombardment When his battery
was undergoing the most severe artil.
lery fire, he refused to take shelter
although as scout he was not
obliged to remain in the position. He
was unwilling, however, to abandon
his comrades and was MORALLY
wounded few minutes later

LOOKING BACKWARD
VENERABLE CARDINAL VIEWS
PAST AND is CONFIDENT
OF FUTURE.

Cardinal Gibbons has this beautiful
retrospect of fifty years:
q have lived long time, and |
have lived through a very critical
time. Not only have l held office
many years, but | have held Office
during a time of transition, when the
old order was changed.
Il am the last living Father of the
Vatican Council Now, alone upon this
earth, / can report what happened
within those sacred walls-not by
hearsay, nor from books, but from
what | actually saw and heard.
There are few Americans living
now who can remember the things
which | can. | followed Mr.. Lincoln S
dead body in procession when it was
brought to this city; have seen every
President since his death, and have
known most of them personally; |
was d grown man and priest during
the Civil War, when it seemed as if
our country were to be permanently
divided
Very few people now living have
seen the country in such distress as |
have seen it. But | have lived, thank
God, to see it in wonderful prosperity
and to behold it grown into one of the
great powers of the earth. Younger
men may tremble for the future of this
country, but can have nothing but
hope when | think what we have al
ready passed through, for can see no
troubles in the future which could
equal, much less surpass. those which
have afflicted us in bygone days.
IF only the American people will
hold fast to that instrument which
has been bequeathed to them as the
palladium of their liberties-the Con.
stitution of the United States-and
fear and distrust the man who would
touch that ark with profane hands.
the permanence of our institutions is
assured"

DIOCESE OF CROOKSTON
Diocesan Correspondent; Rev. 10
seph Wurm, Crookston. Mimi.

Crookston: The Very Reverend P.
Aloysius Hermanutz. o. S. B., V. G.,
was a visitor at the Episcopal resi-
dence last week.
Bemidii The Right Rev. Bishop
confirmed a large class last Sunday,
assisted by Father Philippe, the pas
tor, Father Dufault and Father Flor
ian, o. S. B. This parish, owing to
the zeal and deep interest of rather
Philippe, is in a fourishing condition.
The presbytery has been moved and
remodelled; and the church has been
enlarged, beautified and well fur
nished. The Indebtedness on the en-
tire property has been so reduced
that in the near future a parochial
school will be erected Father Phil
ippes excellent work deserves high
commentator.
Wilton: Last Sunday afternoon the
Bishop dedicated the new church in
Wilton and blessed the cemetery
The church is a model country build
ing with all the necessary furnishings.
The credit of the establishment of this
mission is due entirely to Father
Philippe. Father O'Reardon is the
present pastor.

TOO MANY DRIVES
KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS OBJECT
TO DISCRIMINATION IN COL
LECTING FUNDS.

1t is to be very much regretted that
what seems to be an anti-CatholiC in
fiuence is trying to interfere with the
splendid patriotic work that is being
performed by the knights of Columbus
Committee on War Activities. AS is
well known, the leaders of the Knights
of Columbus recently agreed to go into
Joint drive" for the raising OF war
funds with the Young Mems and the
Young WOmens Christian Associa-
tiOns. War Camp Community Service.
American Library Association. Jewish
Welfare League and Salvation Army.
1t has now been reported in the daily
press that the war department in
tends to foster war drive for the
Protestant organizations in NOvem-
Der and another one for the Catholics.
the Jews, and the Salvation Army in
January. Supreme knight Flaherty
has protested TO Secretary Baker
against this arrangement He tele-
graphed: This would be drawing a
religious line in time Of war that
can not fail to cause great criticism
and disturbance throughout the coun-
try"
The board of directors of the Knights
of Columbus will meet in Chicago on
the first, day of next month to consid-
er what steps they ought to take in
the matter. AS showing how unfair
the reported decision of the war de-
partment in this connection would be,
Supreme knight O'Flaherty points out
that there will be a liberty loan drive
in October. The drive of the Y NJ. c.
A, the Y. w. c. A. and the American
Library Association will follow in No
vember. Then will come the Red
Cross membership drive in December,
next the Christmas holidays and the
Knights of Columbus, the Jews and
the Salvation Army are left to get
what is left after the first of the year.
The Knights are already in nearly
400 war chests throughout the coun-
try. The feeling of the contributors
has been most generous. The work of
collecting these funds for the various
organizations has created a splendid,
thoroughly American spirit They
have all worked for one another and
all worked together. Business men
have managed the funds and assigned
the quotas and everything has been
satisfactory and harmonious. The
boards of trade throughout the cOun-
try are almost unanimously in favor Of
one joint war chest for all the actiy-
tiles excepting the Red Cross, which,
of course, stands in class by itself
and quite different from any of these
others and which everybody is only too
glad to support standing alone.

MUST HAVE PERMIT
BAN PUT ON ALIENS DEPARTING
FROM U. S.

Freedom of departure from this
country of aliens, by means of which
number of dangerous enemy agents
have been able to escape from the
authorities since the United States
entered the war, will not be permitted
after September Is, under proclama-
ton signed by President Wilson and
an executive order, both of which
were made public by the State De-
partment. The proclamation and ex-
ecutive order puts into effect the
alien control law passed by Congress
last May.
Under the executive order aliens
after September Is will be required
to obtain permits before leaving the
United States, and additional restric-
tions will be placed on the entry of
aliens into this country. Attempts to
evade the draft through leaving the
country, which officials believe will
increase with the passage of the bill
extending the draft ages, will be rem
dered less easy of accomplishment by
the new restrictions.

Beda College Endowment
RECTOR MAKING PLEA TO GIVE
COLLEGE PERMANENT HOME
IN ROME.

The Beda College, Rome, which is
now under separate roof from the
English College, has been temporarily
housed in the premises which were
occupied by the Austrian Poles before
the war and which are for the time
being vacant
An appeal is being made in Eng.
land by the rector of the college,
Monsignor Mann, who wishes to com
plete the endowment commenced by
Leo XIII who designed the college for
converted Anglican clergymen and
Catholics having vocations to the
priesthood late in life. The first step
of the rector has been to form an
association of old students of the
Beda, with secretary, and soon an
appeal will go out to these and their
friends to do what they can to give
the college permanent home in the
Eternal City.

Mount st. Charles College has

answer has been received from the
government. Some time during the
coming scholastic year it is hoped to
have the unit in operation. This col
lege is located at Helena, Mont, and
is under the direction of Bishop Car
roll. Last year there were about one
hundred and fifty students in all de-
partmentS. This year, it should not
be difficult to secure one hundred stu
dents for the Collegiate Department
alone. Already the neighboring states
of North Dakota, Idaho and Utah have
promised gOodly number If Mon
tana does her share, the students
training unit of Mount ST. Charles Col

VANITY HURTS CHINA
REPUBLIC KNOWS NOT HOW TO
ADAPT ITSELF TO NEW
REGIME.

China is finding it difficult to raise
money. American bankers have been
approached on the idea of floating a
loan of fifty million dollars, but they
very frankly declare that they must
have the assurance of help and CO.
operation from the American State
Department.
The root of the trouble lies in the
fact that China is today practically
without government, says the Field
Altar.
If her people could overcome hui
man respect they might be induced to
call outsiders to their aid, to show
them how to run a republican ma.
chine But to lose face is an awful
misfortune in the eyes of the sensi-
tive Chinese.
In the meantime, mines of wealth
lie idle, railroad enterprises are held
up, people starve for lack of work,
and bandits multiply over the land
while pirates infest the China Sea.

JOYCE KILMER
written for The Catholic Bulletin by
Nina.)

He sent a message-this lover true.
To his Heavenly Queen in robes of
blue;
Of how he loved her-and to ask her
Son
To bid him welcome when life was
done.
Then to his dear ones he said fare
well,
To enter that battle of seething He'll;
To fight for suffering Frances cause,
And save her from a demons claws.
He who heard music in summer rain
Now enters the battle fearless of
pain;
The victory was brilliant, but he fell,
How we miss him none can tell.
Gladly he gave up his young life,
Mid the roar of cannon in that strife:
Deaths angel bore his soul above
To that Home of Eternal Love.
Last night stood in the falling dew,
He knelt before his Queen in blue,
And as he bent to kiss her hand,
He begged her blessing on blood
soaked land.

THE CATHEDRAL OF RHEIMS.

There is no gable now, now wall
That does not suffer, night and day,
As shot and shell in crushing torrent
fall
The stricken tocsin quiyers through
the tower;
The triple nave, the apse, the lonely
choir
Are circled, hour by hour.
With laundering brands of fire
And Death is scattered broadcast
among men.
The Virgins gentle hands, the Saints
pure faces,
All, even the pardoning hands of
Christ the Lord,
We're struck and broken by the wan
ton sword
Of sacrilegious lust.
o beauty slain, o glory in the dust.
Strong walls of faith, most basely
oyerthrown
The crawling flames, like adders glis-
tening
Ate the white fabric of this lovely
thing.
Now from it's soul arose a piteous
moan,
The soul that always loved the just
and fair
Granite and marble loud their woe
confessed.
The silver monstrances that Popes had
blessed,
The chalices and lamps and crosiers
rare
We're scared and twisted by flaming
BREATH
The horror everywhere did range and
swell

OUTSIDE OF THE CITIES.

Mnneota: Sixty families of the
parish of ST Edward raised more than
$1,000 for Tyler sufferers after a
strong plea from Father Stewart and
H. j. Tillemans last Sunday.
FarihauIt; The parish of the Sa-
cred Heart which is in charge of Mgr
Guillot, has lost it's first boy in the
war. He is Jean Baptiste Desmarais,
who was killed in battle in France on
July 10. A solemn requiem will be
celebrated in this church for him next
week.
lVsnhoe: The dedication and I'M
yelling of two fags-one a service
flag and one the Stars and Stripes
took place Sunday, August IS, in the
Church of SIS. Peter and Paul, at High
Mass. Each flag is 6x12 feet in size;
they are beautiful emblems made OF
wool bunting, and are a contribution
by the congregation and others. The
service flag has been placed at the
right-hand side of the sacristy, while
the Stars and Stripes occupy a DO
sition at the left, where both will re-
main during the period of the war al
least. The service flag contains thir
ty-six stars, each of which represents
one boy from the congregation who
is in the service of his country.
Rev. Stanislaus F. Dobrenski. the
pastor, officiated at these special serv
ices and his message to the big gath
ering present was most touching. In
his sermon he compared the lot oil
the people of Europe, before the dis
covery of America, to that of the PEG
pie OF Israel under the tyranny oil
Pharaoh. God heard the prayers OF
these suffering people. gave then
