M0D|F|ES LIQUOR LAW
SOUTH DAKOTA SENATE PRAC-
TICALLY REPEALS SEARCH
AND SEIZURE LAW.

A practical repeal of the search and
seizure prohibition law in South Da-
kota was accomplished in the senate
on June %. S. B. SO, designed to
meet the objections of the law of 1919
which was referred, passed with only
seven dissenting votes. This bill if
passed by the house increases the
amount of wine allowed a church for
sacramental purposes to IL gallons a
year instead of s, prevents search
without warrant, cuts out reference to
a public nuisance, and with that elm
mates the provision allowing veterin-
arians to prescribe and in other. fea-
lures complies with the federal pro-
hibition law.
The reason for it's enactment was
given as the fact that Roman Catholic
churches are unable to get such wine,
as are other churches which require
it. They cannot get it under the 1913
law because it has been referred and
is imperative till decided; it is diff
cult to get it under the 1917 law be-
cause it must be obtained in person
from a druggist with a permit, and
there are only three such druggists in
| the state, far from many communi
ties. The present bill permits its
lshipment by mail.

THE PAPAL BUST
POPE POSES FIRST TIME FOR
ARTIST FROM AMERICA.

Hendrick Christian Anderson, the
American sculptor, is working on a
pen-and-ink drawing, a medallion head
and a complete bust, for which Pope
Benedict is posing.
All three are life-like representa-.
tions and are said to be highly ap-
proved by the Pontiff, who has will.
ingly signed the drawing. The bust
and medallion are treated in broad
renaissance manner with the simplic
ity characteristic of the artist and are
expected to be reproduced and soon
exhibited in America.
The concession made by the Pope
in posing for Mr.. Anderson is the first
he has made to any American artist
During his poses His holiness talked
of art and artists with the sculptor
and showed considerable knowledge OF
and great interest in present-day de-
velOpments.

Who IS |NT0LERANT :?
PRESBYTERIAN MINISTER SUF-
FERS FOR OPINIONS.

The Rev. j. B. Armour, Presbyterian
minister, Ballymoney, County Antrim,
has for twenty-eight years been in
agreement with the Irish Catholic ma
jority in demanding self-government.
How has he been treated by the men,
bers of his own denomination who so
constantly attribute intolerance to
Catholics? He has just related at a
meeting of the Presbyterian General
Assembly that after he had advocated
self-government in an address to that
body some years ago, he was boy
cotted by his fellow ministers. For
four years none of them called at his
house. For ten years he was not al.
lowed to preach outside of his own
church. And at no time was he suf-
fered to speak, even on purely Pres
byterian matters, in Belfast. Presby-
terian free-thinkers won't stand free.

PRIEST TELLS OF LEG
ISlATION IN HIS COUNTRY
IRISH CATHOLIC CAPTURED
JERUSALEM.

1t was an Irish Catholic who cap.
tured Jerusalem in the world war.
This little known fact was brought
home by Father James Molloy, of New
Zealand, who is a visitor in Denver at
present. Sir John Shea was COM
mander of the Goth division, which
actually captured the Holy City. AL
lenby was communicating chief of the
forces, and all the honor given him
has been deserved, but Shea was d-
rectly over the victorious division.
Father Molloy served through the
Palestine and Mesopotamia cam
paigns. 1t was picturesque army
that captured the Holy Land. The
right wing contained 10000 ebony
Arabs mounted on the famous Arabian
horses; the center of the army rode
on $4,000 camels; and the left rode
in-thousands of Fords.
The Allies refused to shell Jerusa-
lem, the Turks asking this but send
ing shells from it's walls themselves.
When they were not fighting, the
Allies were digging for archaeological
specimens, and they found many Of
great value. Their army started from
Egypt, where they had used the
Sphinx, seventy-fve feet high, as an
observation post.

BISHOP SHANAHAN
IRISH BISHOP NAMED FOR SOUTH
NIGERIA,

The Right Rev. Monsignor J. J.
Shanahan, G. S. Sp., Prefect Apos-
tolic of South Nigeria, who was lately
consecrated bishop of Abila at the Col
lege Church, Maynooth, is native of
Tipperary and is in his forty-fifth
year. He had been a missionary in
Nigeria for seventeen years, and in
the large area allotted to him, he had
succeeded in winning thousands of
souls to Catholicism. There are now
1900 Catholics under his rule, while
there are many catechumens under
instruction. During DR.. Shanahan's S
time as Prefect Apostolic, numerous
churches and schools have been erect
ed in Nigeria.
Bishop Shanahan said his last wish
was that his ashes should be laid in
Nigeria, just as the ashes of their fore
fathers-Ireland's missionaries and
saints-lie in every part of the world
where they had labored. ''The best
compliment" he added, 81 can pay to
Ireland, my mother, is by doing her
work, which is Gods work too.''

BISHOP Won EUCH
VENERABLE PRELATE HAS La
BORED SIXTY YEARS IN ICE.
LAND AND DENMARK,

Truly remarkable, if not unique, in
the history of the Catholic missions is
the career of Rt Rev. John Won Euch,
Vicar Apostolic of Denmark and Ice
land. This year marks the siXtieth
anniversary of his ordination to the
priesthood in the cathedral of Osna-
brueck, Germany, by Bishop Melchers.
AS few weeks after his ordination
he began to labor in the land of St.
Canute, the good bishop can look back
on sixty years of uninterrupted mis-
sionary endeavor. The venerable jub-
Harlan is Sc years of age. Because of
his advanced age, the hard times, and
his numerous jubilees of the past, he
observed his double diamond jubilee
without special festivities.
On the occasion of his eighty-frst
birthday, six years ago, King Chris.
tian x of Denmark conferred on him
the cross of commander of the Or.
der of Danebrog. Three years ago
when he celebrated his silver jubilee
as Bishop he was appointed assistant
at the Papal throne and created a
Roman count by Pope Benedict
Under the direction of Bishop von
Euch the Church in Denmark made
much progress during the last ter
years, especially in the organization oil
youth and the development of the
Catholic high school. Unfortunately
the war and the consequent high cost
of living has hampered building op
erations, and the Jesuit college at Co
penhagen has been forced to suspend

SCIENCE AND RELIGION
GERMAN PRELATES EXILED FROM
INDIA NOTED SCIENTISTS.

Expulsion of German Catholic mis-
sionaries from India, Ceylon and 9TH
er British possessions, and from the
Caroline Islands, is lamented as loss
to science as we'll as to religion, it is
said by educators identified with the
Catholic University. 1t is pointed out
that most of these German mission
aries were men of exceptional attain
ments, in chemistry, botany, anthro-
pology, philology and other depart
tments of practical knowledge, and
that they had made valuable contri-
button to the literature of those sci
ences.

charge of German Catholic mission
ary effort in the Caroline Islands be.
fore they were seized by Japan after
the outbreak of the war, is the au.
thor of grammars, dictionaries and
other books in the native dialects OF
the islands. Other German mission
aries had constructed grammar fol
many of the tongues and dialects oil
India. Not a few have added largely
to the knowledge of the fauna anc
flora of those countries.
Bishop Walleser is now in New
York awaiting the results of the
Pope's efforts to bring about a with
drawal or modification of the British
order banishing the German mission
aries.

Advanced Laws in New Zealand

Father MollOy says that New Zealand
has some highly advanced legislation.
Prohibition is voted on every three
years and it takes three-fifths vote
to change from wet to dry or vice
versa. There is special board
for labor difficulties, and when
question has been submitted to it, it
must be settled there, not outside.
Ninety-tive out of a hundred of its
awards are accepted.
1t is impossible for man TO be
elected to Office on minority vote.
If three men are running, and none
gets majority vote, the two highest
must go before the people in another
election. People who neglect to vote
are deprived of this light in subso-
quent elections. Consequently few
fail. Public utilities are owned by
the government and economically
operated. Markets are conducted by
the government to keep private mar
kets from prOfteering. The same
thing is true of theaters. A maternity
bonus of 500 is given for every white
child legitimately born; doctors serv-
ices in such cases are free and drug
store supplies arr furnished at cost

REPLIES TO DEVOY AND COHA-
Ian AND REsENTS THEIR AC-
TION AT CHICAGO-DECLA
HE HAS AUTHORITY FROM IRISH
PEOPLE AND DAHL EIREANN FOR
HIS PLANS IN AMERICA.

De Valera has given out the fol-
opponents here.
My mission is from the people of
Ireland to the people of America. 1t
would be inconsistent with my duty
to become a puppet to be manipulate
ed by anybody. 1t would injure our
cause even to allow it to appear that
| was punpet.
In my years in America and in my
experience in meeting people all over
the country | have not had the slight
est difficulty in working in greatest
harmony and closest cooperation with
all except one or two individuals.
The Chicago Work.
As regards Chicago, the work I in
tended there could have easily been
co-ordinated with the work that our
American friends wished to do there.
The arguments against my appearing
in Chicago apply equally to my ap-
pearing in America at all.
| believe that the public meeting in
Chicago demonstrated to the dele
gates who had come from other parts
of the country, where perhaps the
Irish question was not so well under
stood, that this question of Ireland
was live, American question, inter
esting large section of the American
people.
[ cannot see how such demonstra-
tion could have interferred with any
other efforts that were being made.
It's only effect could be to strengthen
these efforts.
AS regards the plank in the plat
form, as a representative of Ireland
cago convention a possible future pol
icy of the American nation was being
determined. That policy, insofar as
it affected Ireland, was vital to us. 1t
was important that Irelands claim
for Justice should he presented in a
public manner to the peoples repre-
sentatives there assembled.
| believe it was positively harmful
to our interests that resolution mis-
representing Ireland's claim by un-
Devastating it should have been pre-
Sented.
1t is not for me to say that the
Irish people would be satisfied with
something which it was obvious they
could not have been satisfied with.
