THE I. w. w.

1t must be satisfying to all
Catholics who consider the ques-
ton at all to note how certain or
carnations, especially since the
beginning of the war, have shown
their true colors, observes the
Denver Catholic Register. The
activities of the l. w. w. give an
excellent example,, Catholics
were not allowed to enter as
members into this brotherhood.
The Church was looked upon, by
the order itself, and even by some
of her own members not suffi-
GENTLY fervent or Obedient, as
narrow and too eXacting in issu-
ING this prohibition.
Too little do people realize that
the Church is Gods spokesman
upon earth; neither do they seem
to think that the experience of
almost two thousand years has
been an excellent teacher. They
do not know also, or admit, that
before she puts her ban upon any
body Of men, any practice, any
custom, or amy book, she has en-
ergetically and COMPREHENSIVE
studied it and detected the evil
that exists in it, if not for the
participants themselves, for 9TH
ers, or the evil that will even
tually come out Of it. She does
nothing hurriedly or rashly
and, to. say the least, is I'M
selfish enough to- encourage and
promote any cause that makes for
good. But, wherever evil raises
it's head, or even turks, she wages
an unrelenting battle.
Right-minded people now will
be convinced, from the result Of
the Investigations, discoveries,
and activities. Of the government,
that, when condemning such an
organization as the |. W. w., the
Church was doing a deed that was
not only to Gods glory, but was
also to the evident good and adj
vancement of the country and the
commonwealth. It may take time
as it often dOes-but the wis
dom of the Church finally makes
itself known to men; and were
it possible today to bring before
the world all the rushing tide of
evil that she has stemmed, men
would be surprised at its magni-
tude. It is neither narrowness
nor selfshness to fight evil: 1t is
an evidence Of the noblest of aims
and most sublime dignity.

DILLON CHOSEN
WILL SUCCEED JOHN REDMOND
AS LEADER OF THE NATIONAL
IST PARTY-SKETCH OF HIS
CAREER IN IRELAND'S CAUSE.

John Dillon, member of Parliament
elected Chairman of the Nationalist
party, succeeding the late John Red
mond The motion to elect Mr.. Dillon
was made by Joseph Devlin.
John Dillon, whose friends some
times said that he dictated the policies
of John Redmond, first entered Par
lament in 1880, from Tipperary, at
the age of 20 years. He was a ply
stefan by training, but abandoned the
medical profession for a political ca
reer in which he was closely assOci-
ated with Mr.. Redmond during the
closing years of the latter's life.
Retiring from Parliament in 1883,
he spent two years in California, re-
turning in 1885 to be defeated as a
member Of North Tyrone, but being
Mayo, which he has since represented.
Possessed of height and long limbs to
a degree to make him a conspicuous
figure, and presenting an air which
his associates have described as one
of melancholy, Mr.. Dillon has often
stood forth as a spectacular orator in
his activities in the House of Com
mons.
Early during the second year Of the
war he bitterly opposed the British
Governments plan to raise an addi
tional 100000 troops. He attacked
CONSUMPTION, but finally agreed to con-
form to the wishes of John Redmond
in not further opposing the military
service bill. Early in 1916 he de-
nounced the governments methods of
dealing with the Irish revolt and con-
demned the executions. He made sew
eral motions in the House of Commons
urging the Government to disclose it's
plans for the administration of Ire
land, declaring Ireland would welcome
election on the home rule question.
On several occasions Mr.. Dillon has
publicly criticized the British war poll
cies notably in connection with Rou-
mania, Greece and the censorship. In
an address in Dublin last December
he condemned the Sim Feiners, de-
claring they had alienated sympathy
in the United States for the Irish
cause

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

To follow the rapid turn of
events in Russia one must know
something about the principles
that are at stake and the parties
that are struggling for mastery.
Since the overthrow Of Kerensky,
the Bolsheviki have been dOmi-
mating the situation, with the
Mensheviki making. a rival bid
for power, notes The Echo.
'Bolshe" means more; "Men-
she" less. The Bolsheviki want
everything or nothing; the Men
sheviki are content with less. The.
Bolsheviki advocate recourse to
violent revolution to attain their
end; the Mensheviki believe in
the process of evolution; the lat
ter are MARKHAM Socialists; the
former are Anarchists and Mill
lists.
The present conflict between
the Bolsheviki and the Menshe-
wiki harks back to the personal
differences that existed fifty
years ago between Michael Baku-
min (1S14-1S76), the founder of
Anarchism, and Karl Marx (1818-
1889, the pioneer of Socialism.
The two were originally friends.
Bakunin, a Russian, had resigned
his position as cavalry officer in
order to devote his time to study
In Berlin he studied Hegel, Schop-
penhauer and Stirner, the latter
being considered the founder of
philosophical anarchism as distin-
gushed from Bakunin s propagan-
ola of deed.
Socialism, based on the materi-
alistic conception Of history and
depending upon an alleged inev-
liable process Of evolution for it's
realization, was repudiated by
Bakunin. The controversy be-
tween Bakunin and Marx came
to head in the International
Workingmen's Association, which
Marx had largely been instrument
tai III founding in 1864. At the
conference of the international in
Geneva in 1873, open hostilities
broke out and Bakunin rallied to
himself the delegates from Rus
STA and the Latin countries. The
international was wrecked. Bak-
unin died inY1876. In Russia, the
propaganda of deed" which he
had preached was advanced by
Anarchist and Nihilist groups.
Prince Kropotkin is their leader.
The Bolsheviki are the disciples
of Bakunin and their aim is the
establishment of a Federated Re
public Of free communities in

TO EXHAUST WHISKY IN EIGHT
ZEN MONTHS.

Whisky drinkers of the country,
at their present rate of consump-
ton, are drinking themselves out of
a supply. So rapid is the rate that
all of the whisky in the United
States will be gone in eighteen
months, the summer of 1919. This
is conservative estimate of Gov
eminent officials who have been
watching the rate of flow from the
warehouses since the Presidents
proclamation stopping distilling on
September 8. There are only about
Isl, 100000 gallons left in these
warehouses.
The normal per capita consump-
ton of whisky in the United States
is about one gallon year. At this
rate the available supply, figuring
from February 1, will last little
more than eighteen months, but ex-
pert authorities say that the odd
100000 will be absorbed during
the eighteen months period and that
all the whisky left on August 1,
1919, will be in private hands and
that It will not be much at that,

APPEAL MADE BY A SECULAR
DAILY - FAIR PRESENTATION
OF CATHOLICS CAUSE MADE BY
METROPOLITAN NEWSPAPER.

Under the caption, Help the Catho-
lie War Relief Fund, the Chicago
Evening American, of March IA, has
an editorial of which the following is
a part:
The great Catholic Church Of
America is engaged in raising fund
of seven million five hundred thou
sand dollars for war relief work.
This is a worthy, a noble enterprise.
1t should have the support of all
Americans, of whatever religious
faith.
This is a country free from relig-
ious prejudice.
In this great war it should be free
from all religious feeling-of any kind.
Through their great organization
the Catholics will have unusual facili-
ties for helping the soldiers on the
other side and in the training camps
here.
They have already done a great and
wonderful work. Help to enable them
to make it still more wonderful and
still greater.
In this time of war it is the duty
of all the people to do everything
possible for the soldiers who are fight
ing the war, risking their lives, bear
ing the real brunt Of the great strug-
gle.
The work that the Catholics have
already done has been undenOmina-
tiOnal. When they have found sol
diers needing help, help has been
given them.
Catholics have been heavy contribu-
tors to all other funds that have been
raised-to the Y. M. c. A., the Red
Cross, the Jewish Relief Fund. In
fact, no worthy cause has appealed
to them in vain.
They are now raising this fund as
their share-their contribution to wal
relief work. .t..
The most important men in the
Church, prelates as well as laymen,
are engaged in the work
The Knights of Columbus, who have
distinguished themselves in war work
are taking an active part in it.

American Missionaries
PROMOTION OF SIX CLERICS AT
TECHNY, ILLINOIS - FIRST
FRUITS OF. AMERICAN MISSION
AIRY SEMINARY.

America, to the 'front.'" Thousands
are enlisting in the service of our
country in it's hour of need.
America, to the 'front.'" This cry
comes from distant lands, darkened
by the shadows of paganism. There
are no thousands to heed it. But
America is slowly and surely doing
it's part to fill the ranks of valiant
missionaries who carry ON the holy
war against the forces of heathenism
and superstition, barbarism and sin.
On March 10, six theological stu
dents of st. Mary's Mission House,
Techny, H., received Tonsure and the
Minor Orders at the hands Of Rt. Rev.
Alexander McGavick, d. D., of Chi
cago. These young clerics are the
first fruits of Americas first mission
house, founded by the Society Of the
Divine Word at Techny, in 1909.
They are Robert Clark of the diocese
of Brooklyn, N. Y, Francis Gothier
of the diocese of Scranton, Pa, Flor
ian Haas of the diocese of Fort
Wayne, Ind, Clifford King of the
diocese of Ogdensburg, n. Y, Joseph
Murphy of the archdiocese of Chi
cago, Peter Weyland of the diocese of
ST. Cloud, Mimi. They will be
ordained in the fall of 1920 With
the ceremonies of the above date they
have crossed the threshold leading to
the sanctuary and to the missionary
priesthood
At present there are 100 candidates
for the foreign missions of the So
ciety of the Divine Word at Techny.
But the combined light and zeal of
thousands of missionaries must be
brought to bear upon the forces of
heathenism. America has to do her
part. The march has already begun
on our own soil, and may it never
cease. an

HELP THE K. c.. FUND

That organization has already built
recreation halls in the training camps,
and any soldier now in training will
testify as to the benefits it has con-
ferred
In an Eastern city last Winter, when
suddenly six thousand men, enlisted
for the regular army, were turned on
the town without shelter, it was the
Knights of Columbus which first took
them in, and which afterWard enlisted
all the other churches in caring for
and feeding them until the govern
ment could accommodate them.
The spirit that was shown in that
city in that busy twelve days is the
spirit that should be shown in all
war relief work.
Each denomination should help the
other.
This is a country of religious free
dom, and it should be without relig-
ious prejudice.
Under our systematic system upon
which the country is founded-every
man is given the right to worship God
as he sees fit, and is presumed to
respect the belief of his neighbor
That religious liberty has been the
salvation of the country.
Fighting for us in France now are
Catholics, Jews, PreSbyterians, Bap-
lists, men of every sect and creed.
No distinction has been made in draw
ing them for the service of their coun-
try.
No distinction has been made by
them in enlisting for the service of
their country
And there should be no distinction
in contributing to relief funds.
Let all Americans help this great
fund, for it is for a great purpose, and
will be productive of great good.
1t will be carefully and wisely eX.
pended, by men trained in war work
Every cent of it will go to help the
soldiers, and everything that helps
the soldiers will help to win the war
The Evening American urges upon
all of its readers that they give as
freely as they can afford to the Cath,
Ollie War Fund, and that they urge
their neighbOrs to give in the same
liberal measure.
Make the fund a success, and make
it 4 success. as quickly as possible.

The statement relative to lynch
ings for the year 1917 recently
given out by Major Motion, prin-
cipal Of the Tuskegee Normal and
Industrial Institute, should keep
Americans from boasting too
loudly of their civilization. Ac-
cording to his figures there were
thirty-eight victims of mob bru-
tality, two white, thirty-siX col
ored. One was a woman. Twelve
were lynched on the usual
charges; the others were put to
death for offences that included
mot getting out of the road and
being insolent; - "disputing white
mans words; - stealing a
coat; :" accidentally killing child
by running automobile over it,"
"vagrancy;' opposition to war
draft; " writing insolent letter, -

AN ADMISSION OF GUILT.

The secret ways of European
diplomacy have been exposed to
the glare Of the searchlight, and
they have disclosed strange
meanderings. The light thrown
upon the agreement alleged to
have been entered upon by Eng
land, France, Italy and Russia,
relative to the Holy Father, has
turned lurid red. The Russian
revolutionists, in a burst Of demo-
cratic fervor, gave to the world
the hidden secrets of the Roman
off archives. The price Of Italy s
belated entrance into the war, af-
ter juggling with the triple alli-
ance, was the exclusion Of the
Pope from the inevitable peace
conference at the end Of hostili-
ties -
The Roman question for the
past fifty years has been a thorn
in the side Of foreign govern
ments. The position occupied by
the Holy Father in Rome was eX-
tremely delicate, and at times en-
barrassing, for distinguished for
eigners. The title which the Vat
lean possessed over the Papal
dominions was the most valid
deed of possession in the world.
Original donations, traditional oc-
cupation, consent of the governed,
all tended to fortlfy the rights Of
the Holy See against everything
except injustice and superior

Clyde r. White, State Chairman
of War Savings Societies, esti-
mated, at the close of War Club
Week that 1000 clubs had been
organized in Minnesota, with an
average membership of 10 to a
club, or $4,000 individuals, and
that the amount per week pledged
by each individual averages S1.O0.
This would give the Government
approximately $500,0OO a week
for the next 40 weeks, or $780,
100000. The States quota in
War-Savings is 100000, and
Mr.. White believes that sufficient
additional clubs will be organized
to insure that figure.

strength. The sacrilegious Carl
baldi and the INSCRIPTIONS Ca
your succeeded with their com
bined iniquity in despoiling the
Church Of God of her earthly pos
sessions.
Well did the cabinets Of the
four above mentioned govern
ments realize the delicacy Of the
question. Well did they realize
also that millions Of spiritual sub
Jects Of that same Holy See were
fighting for the triumph OF the
Allied cause. But feelings Of
honor, integrity, and common de-
cency seem to- have had no part
this so-called diplomacy. When
the 1dishonorable pact was finally
nnfolded to a startled and dis
guisted world, SonninO in Italy
and Cecil in England raised the
feeble voice Of protest character
istic of a guilty person caught
red-handed. Italy's very fear OF
the Pope's participation in a
peace congress was an open adj
mission of objectionable guilt on
her part in retaining stolen goods.
1t is somewhat nauseating to read
empty phrases proclaiming pro-
lection for small nations on the
part of a power that, indirectly, at
least, places the stamp Of APP
proval upon the outrageous rob-
berry committed by Italy on the
Pope Of Rome in 1870.

1t is frequently asked why
hotels do not display a church
register announcing Catholic
services. The answer is that,
usually, such a list has not been
presented to the hotel authorities.
1t would be a most useful work if
our Catholic societies everywhere
would take up this matter, and
present neatly framed an
nouncement of such services to
the local hotels.
