Negro Bishop Becomes
Archbishop

A letter from Bishop Schrembs of
Cleveland, Ohio, to the Tacoma edi-
tor Of The Enterprise states that
Bishop Schrembs met the colored
Catholic bishop in Rome during his
ad limina visit to his holiness the
Pope.
The letter further states, quoting
Rev. Father Ragspiel, S. V. D., that
Bishop Silverio Gomez Pimenta me
gro) titular bishop of Camaco in
June, 1890, was lately promoted by
the Pope to the See of Mariana, in
the diocese of the state of Minas-
Gereas, Brazil, containing two mil
lion Catholics, black, white and In
dams. The archbishop is the only
Negro American Catholic bishop now
officially listed. A former Negro
Catholic bishop was the Bishop of
Panama, in about 1857, who built
the very first cathedral on the west
ern continents at Panama. He was
removed to the archbishopric Of
Lima. Peru.
Few people know that an Amer
lean Negro has occupied the seat Of
a Catholic bishopric in the United
States. Bishop John Augustine He
ally of Portland Maine, was Negro.
according to Rev. Father Joseph b.
l.. Glenn of Richmond, Virginia, and
his sister was the foundress of that
great Catholic order known as the
Ursaline Nuns in France. Many 9TH
er persons supposed to be white are
colored, in fact, and it takes long
time for the truth to come out some
times. Bishop Healy was fair and

Dever Loses in Chicago

He deserved to lose. When a man
like Dever accepts the aid and sup
port of a certain class of people in
polictics and then throws them over
board in catering to their especial
enemies he ought to ,ail. Dever is a
Catholic--so is this writer--and we
know that a large number of the col
ored voters who assisted lin putting
Dever into the mayoraltyship of the
great city of Chicago in two cleo
lions did so because they believed
him to be a Catholic, and necessarily
an enemy of the KL rsux Klan and,
incidentally, a friend to those whom.
the Khan hated.
The reported unfair tactics of De-
ver's lieutenants in throwing hun
dreds of black men and women in
Jail at the primary elections shows
that Dever is not very far from be-
ing a klansman himself.
Our colored voters should be
warned that an Irish politician linked
up with the Negro hating South lis
not to be trusted even though he be
the father of a priest. Watch out
for politicians playing both ways at
once. The church is not to blame
but Dever is. Don't expect a
Democrat to work miracles because
you help to put him in office. The
old South still has control of the
Democratic party. Don't vote for a
man Just because he claims to be
Catholic and a hater of the Ku Klux
Klanl He is liable to be Kluxer.
Don't vote against a man just be-
cause he is a Catholic. He may be
alright just the same. "a word to
the wise is sufficient"
