Priestcraft at Panama

FREDERICK J. HASKINS s. interesting book, 1.-The
u Panama Canal, seems to have been prepared with
intent to avoid facts uncomplimentary to Rome and
its clergy but it contains two statements which are In
structely interesting concerning the operations of priest
craftin Central America. On page 2l5 we read:
"On New Years Day, 1880, de Lesseps formally in
augurated the work of building the canal large party
Of ladies and gentlemen visited the mouth OF the Rio
Grande where the first hovefu of sod to be turned
An address made by Count de Lesseps and 0enedec

the speechakng continued so long that the party did not
have time go ashore turn the sod it was brought on
board and Miss Fernando de Lesseps there made the IN

And so the French effort to divide the land and unite
the world" began with drunken spree and blessing by
the pope local bishop No wonder it was such dlsas-
tros and humating failure It not until science and
the soda fountain had displaced superstition and saloons
that American genius completed the great work at cost
slightly greater than that of Frances failure But the
popes bishop remained to carry his sanced graft as
will be noted in the following excerpt from pages 1884 OF
the same volume Discussing the relations of the Panama
and United States governments, Mr.. Haskins says:
"Whie there has been substantial agreement between
the two countries it has been difficult to prevent some con-
dtons which are contrary to American ideas OF morality

Getting Their Wires Crossed

THERE rs NO telling what excitable priests may do
or say when United States senator says something
plainly truthful about the papacy. Frantic denials
from priests are to be expected but would naturally
expect one dgnfed the Roman Catholic senator from
Arizona to talk consistently and keep the clear in his
marks on such occasion.
II is reported that Ashurst Of Arizona followed Sens

emphatic declaration, published everywhere by the news

We would suggest that the popes senator's, editors,

EADORE MURDER CASE
Priests HOuSekeeper Declared
Sane-Trial to Be at Le-
land on July 29

Mrs. Stanislaus Lypchinski,
housekeeper for Priest Bienowske,
who was charged with the murder
of Sister Mary Johns eleven years
ago at Isadore, Michigan, has been
declared sane by the proper au-
thorities of the state, and will be
placed on trial at Leland, Michi-
gan July 29th. Attorneys for the
accused woman tried to dodge a
trial on the plea of insanity, pre-
sumably on the theory that insane
people, like dead ones, tell no tales; /;
but this time the old game Of evad-
ing justice and hiding evidence in
an insane asylum wouldn't work,
and the housekeeper, who is per-
haps the scapegoat for the iniq-
uities of others, must stand trial.
This trial, we predict, will be a
farce and end in an acquittal or
no decision. 1t was only a poor
nun who was murdered. Eleven
years have gone by in which to
hide the evidence Of the crime, a
priests housekeeper is accused Of
the crime, and, if guilty, the priest
knew of it even if he was not di.
rectly connected with it. Other
priests seem to have known of it
and even a bishop is said to have
had the history Of the case.

Wheat Sl30 a Bushel.

Senator Capper, of Kansas, offered
in the senate few days ago a start
ling illustration OF his contention that
everybody was making money out OF
wheat except the man who raised IT.
Ii takes four and half bushels OF
wheat to make a barrel OF -four, he
pointed out. The wheat raiser gets
about S8.37 for the four and a half
bushels, or S1.S6 tushel. For these
four and a half bushels OF wheat,
when converted into -four, the miller
gets Sl2.70. or S2.S2 a bushel When
these four and half bushei Of grain,
formed into -four, reach the baker he
converts the material into bread.
which he sells for S5S.70, thus receiv-
ing a few cents more than Sl3 for
what was originally bushel OF wheat
When this bread, made from the
original four and a half bushels nj
wheat, is doled out in thin slices by
hotel keepers, in Washington it brings
S5s7, or virtually S130 bushel, ten
times the amount received by the ba-
ker, more than twenty times the
amount received by the miller and
more than 80 times the amount re-
ceived by the man who raised the
wheat.
The government, through the grain
corporation, Senator Capper said
profted S23,OO0,O00 at the expense OF
farmers last year, the farmers selling
from 20 to 70 cents less than the guar
anteed price.
The situation Of the live stock farm
er is even more deplorable, he said
Farmers are selling their grain fed
beeves and hogs for less than il costs
to produce them, but the consumer
finds little or no change in the price OF

The American Cemetery.

Every one of the 2i,000 American
soldiers who lie in the Argonne GENE
tery at Romagne-sous-Montfaucon
France, has received as good a burial
as was possible, according to Prof. II.
Elwood, of the Ohio State University,
who has just returned after having
helped supervise the engineering and
landscape gardening at the huge ceme-
terry. Elwood was an artillery cap
tain.
Each body was wrapped in cloth,
put in new wooden coffin and buried
FIVE and one-half feet deep, Capt.
Elwood said. All but 200 Of the
bodies have been absolutely identified,
he added, and the greater part of the
200 would have been probably correct
ly identified had the graves registra-
ton service cared to accept evidence
found on the bodies.
The graves are laid out in rows OF
2s and two rows form a plot. Ap-
proximately so acres of land were
needed for the cemetery, Captain Ell
wood stated, but the American gov
ernment has taken over total OF us
acres. The additional ground was
purchased TO insure the beauty and
setting of the scenery against future
building activities and to provide
room eventually for an American park.
Plan. already have been drawn for
the construction Of buildings and
many trees and much shrubbery have
been planted.
Practically every foot OF the ground
was pock-marked with she'll holes
from long hghtisg. The site was di-
rectly in the path Of the American artil-
lery in the Argonne drive. Grading
and leveling Of the entire area was
necessary before any Of the graves
could be dug.
Flowers were brought all the way
from Luxemburg for planting, since
none were available close hand. AT
the entrance to the cemetery is huge
golden star made Of growing purple
and yellow pansies. German prison
ers of war were utilized in the work OF
building the cemetery.
