IRISH BOND ISSUE
PRESS GENEROUS IN
GIVING SPACE.

The campaign for the sale of bonds
of the Irish Republic progresses fav
orably in Southeast Minnesota. Great
publicity has been given the work,
while more than 100 newspapers have
given generous space to the drive, the
majority of these papers rejecting a
favorable attitude towards the cause.
The campaign in Minnesota is I'M
der the direction of Mr.. Edward T.
Foley, State Chairman. Mr.. John E.
Barry is acting as State Organizer
District organization work is being
done by Gerald Mclaughlin, l.. J. Mad
den and P. J. Johnson, who were sent
to Minnesota from National headquar-
ters
Close to one thousand articles were
printed in Minnesota newspapers on
the state campaign in the past thirty

THE HOLY CITY'S RULE
Christian institutions gradually were
reOpened.
Extra-TerritoriaI Rights.

All of the Christian elements in
Jerusalem have enjoyed under Turkish
rule eXtra-territorial, or what the
French call capitulatory, rights
Neither in person or property rights
were they subject to the jurisdiction
of the Turkish courts. This applied
to nationals of Great Britain, France,
Italy, Holland, Belgium, Spain and
the United States, but did not apply
to nationals of Bulgaria and Serbia.
1t is a question of much interest
what will become of these extra-terri-
torial rights if the Holy Land is put
under the mandate of some Christian
nation.
If the United States is unwilling to
take the mandate for Palestine, it is
believed Great Britain generally will
be urged to do so. Under British
mandate, Palestine would be recog.
nized as the homeland of the Jews,
but the nationals of all nations would
be treated on an equality. This seems
to be the only feasible alternative to
allowing the Holy Land to remain I'M
der the rule of the Moslems, of whom
Emir Feisal has proclaimed himself
King.

THE EUCHARISTIC CONVENTION

tention Of nOnCatholics to the CEN
tral act of Christian worship, the Sac.
rifice of the Mass.
Bishop Gallagher, in his sermon, de-
clared that sacrifice had been insti-
tuted by God as the appropriate means
of man fulfilling his obligation to his
Creator and Master. He described in
detail the sacrifice that was offered
to God under the old law and the
various types that prefigured the un-
bloody sacrifice Of the new law. Man
kind, he declared was under the SEN
tence of death and unless a victim
could have been found, man would
have been doomed to eternal punish
ment. Christ, the victim, offered him
self upon the Cross and now by virtue
OF the power He has given His priests
the sacrifice is continued in an I'M
bloody manner, in the Mass.
The observance Of the devotion of
the holy hour, with procession of
Bishops, MonsignOri and Priests, fol-
lowed by Benediction of the Most
Blessed Sacrament, was held in the
evening Of the first day and proved
one Of the most impressive features
OF the convention. The great Cathc-
dral was throngcd, and more than
two hundred priests were in the pro-
cessiOn, in which the Most Rev. Arch
bishop Dougherty carried the Holy
Eucharist. Bishop Schrembs, from
prle-dieu in the middle aisle led the
congregation in prayers and mCdita-
ton during the holy hour
Sessions of the Convention.
The sessions held in the Girls High
School were marked by the prCsenta-
tion Of an interesting series Of papers
on Eucharistic subjects, followed by
discussions of various points. Bishop
Schrembs presided.
On the first day the Rev. V. i.
kienberger, o. p, of Providence, r. J.,
discussed 'the Mass and the Priests
Personal Sanctification," and Rev.
Charles A. Bruehl, of st. Charles Sem
mary, read paper on Dogma in the
Mass
The second days session, which was
opened by pontifical High Mass for
deceased members of the League, cele-
brated by Bishop Schrembs, was mark
ed in the morning by the reading Of
papers on "The History of the Cere-
monies of the Mass According to the
Roman Rite" by the Rev. John F.
Sullivan, and "the Structure of the
Mass" by the Rev. Henry Bergman,
G. IS. R. In the afternoon the papers
| on '"The Rite of Exposition and Bene-
diction," by the Rev. Anthony Stein,

| by the Rev. Charles F. Vita, were
followed by the introduction of res
| olutions, prepared by a committee
headed by the Right Rev. Monsignor
John B. Peterson, of Boston. The Rev.
John Graham, S. S. S., of New York,
director general of the Priests Eu-
| charistic League, addressed the dele

GERMAN PRESIDENTS GREETING
TO NEW NUNCIO AT BERLIN
POPE HAS ACQUIRED RIGHT OF
RECOGNITION FROM ALL THE
WORLD.
(By N. C. W. c. News Scrvice.)

(By N. C. W. c. News Scrvice)
With the naming of Mgr Pacelli as
Apostolic Nuncio to Berlin the re3a-
tions between the Holy See and the
new Germanu republic have entered
new phase. They, however, even in
the midst of the political changes that
have been taking place since Novem-
ber, 1918, have never been interrupt
ed. This period has been a time in
which preparation has been carried
on directed especially TO make har-
monious the diplomatic representation
already existing with the new constl-
tuition of the republic Of the German
people.
ITp to 1918, only two of the twenty
six states which formed the German
empire had direct diplomatic relations
with the Holy See. They were Ba-
yaria and Prussia. At an earlier time
a nuncio had been sent from Cologne
from 1884 to 1894, at which latter
time the sovereignty and the cleo
tcral dignity of the ecclesiastical
princes of the empire were suppressed.
Those princes were the Archbishops of
Cologne, Treves and Mayennce.
In the present arrangement, Bavaria
has preserved unchanged its dlplo-
matte relations with the Holy See and
lust rs at the eve of the war, so also
at the present time has at Rome as
its minister to the Vatican, Baron de
Ritter de Gruenstein, who for several
years has occupied this office. Up to
few weeks ago, the apostolic nuncio
at Munich was Mgr. Pacelli, who went

Some fifteen years ago, the Calais

civilian nurses the nuns in attendance

it would be far more advantageous to
recall the Sisters. Although the City
