CHURCH OF ST. BONIFACE.

In 1878 twelve German families sep
arated from st. Patrick's, the first
Catholic parish in Melrose, and form
ed the st. BOniface congregation I'M
der the direction of Father Paul Ret
tenmaier, o. S. B. A frame church,
3Ox9O, and costing about $4,000 was
built on the northwest corner of
block SO of the original townsite in
1879. A parochial school was built
on the same block while Father
Eversmann, o. S. B., was pastor, and
a parsonage was built in 1889 at the
cost of $500. The number of fam
lilies in 1891 was 1870 and about 800
children attended the parochial
school.
An extension was built to the
church in 1885, but in 1897 work was
commenced on the present stately
church which is the largest in the
county. 1t is built of red brick with
granite facings, it's dimensions are IS
by 1874, and the east front is fianked
by two towers. The cost of this
church exclusive of furniture was
about $4,000 On May 1, 1898, the cor
ner stone was laid, and the dedica-
ton took place on June 7, 1899, Bishop
Trobec officiating. A chime of five
bells was bought in 1903 and a large
pipe organ in 1905. In 1912 the church
was decorated by the Associated Art
lists of Milwaukee.
The present parsonage is built of
red brick and was erected in the
year 1907.
The old frame school was destroyed
by fire January 5, 1910: for the resi-
of the year the school was conducted
in the basement of the church. In
the meantime the present school was
built opposite the church. The ma
terial used is red brick. In the base
ment Is a gymnasium and a hail. The
school rooms which are capable of &C
commodating $50 children are 80 b.
27, and II feet high. Its cost wa!
$4,000. 1t was opened in January
1911. -.....---.-----.----1 81.

ONE OF OUR OWN FIELDS.

The Philippine Islands is a nomi-
nally Catholic country with large part
of it's territory inhabited by multi
tude of pagan tribes. The wild tribes
are found scattered from northern Lu.
zon to southern Mindanao, and occupy
fully one-half the superficial area OF
the Islands. Including the Negrito

SECURITY STATE BANK.

your old age, the safest way to make

tematic saving is easy if one enters
into it with the intention of sticking.
With the facilities offered you by this
bank and the benefits of the advice

age you, the bank will pay you per
cent interest on your savings while
they are in your account, so that your
money is not only accruing but is
earning you interest as we'll.

4 Game of Double Cross

HE statement issued over the signatures
Of thirty-one prominent Republicans,
who have advocated some form of interna-
ional agreement. explaining why their sup
port is given TO Senator Harding. when sub
jected to tho X-ray test of logical analysis,
but serves to Accumulate the inconsistency
OF their position in the pending campaign.
Included among the signcrs are Elihu Root,
George w. Wickersham Henry L. Stimson.
n. Lawrence Lowell Henry W. Taft and
Charles F.. Hughes. That men OF their ca
pacty for sound thinking and logical rea-
sonng should attach their signatures to
statement which is tantamount to con-
fcssion of belief in the insincerity of the
candidates latest attitude toward the
league covenant, strikingly illustrates the
extremity to which they have been driven
for plausible explanation by tho desire TO
maintain their party regularity.
Divestod of its irrelevant features. the
core of their statement bases their oppos-
tion to league ratification OH objection TO
Article y. OF the covenant. From this
premise they conclude: THE question ac-
cordingly, is not between a league and no
league, but is whether certain provisions in
the proposed league agreement shall be ac-
cepted unchanged or shall be changed"
Ihen. entering upon discussion Of Article
X, they affirm: I'VE cannot regard such
league to preserve peace"
In brief, the statement attempts to con-
vcy the impression that with this article
left out of the covenant and "a few other
minor changes made. the Republican pro-
gram contemplatcs the United States en-
tering the league as n member If the
signers be sincere in this belief, then they
are supporting their candidate in n game of
duplicity in which not only is the public
being deceived, but in this game of decep-
ton it is on the cards to doube-cross Sen
ators Borah. Johnson and the whole body
OF their irreconcilable followers who in
good faith have accepted the candidates
statement that he is opposed to the league
with or without reservations and had
turned his back on the whole business.
There is no escape from this legitimate
definition Of their position. They either are
deceived themselves to what the Repub-
lican program is to be- or else they are un-
blushingly lending assistance to scheme
10 doublc-cros the irrcconcilable element
OF their own party and the public as we'll.
On one horn OF a dilemma they have i'm
paled themselves, and in so doing they pre-
sent n pitiable spectacle before the Amer
lean people.
