.of mo!l<:I;n age~. Still in this time of peace the snme tariff is imt10serl that was considererl quffieient in time of_w;tr. The qnes tioil still remains t o be nn8wererl , shou,rl a . wnr tariff he levied in time of peflce? H not-wf.Jy not? ft. should 11ot and the rensons why it should not be lt> dPd nrP si mpiP·. Any one CPnversnnt wilh th e present lnriff kn •. ws that it is the necessp.rie'l, not the luxuries rh:tt. are mainly tnxerl. The Democrats cln.im that th !s duty, or t.nx if you will, falls upon tha workingman, while the Repuulicnns say that the importer pays the rlnty. True, the importer pays the <luty, but when he afterwMds sells these imported goorl8, he adcts this <iuty to the original cost of tbe goons, thus insuring himself from io8s: 'rhe t'e tail rlealer noes likewise and the person bnying from him not only pnys the originAl cost of the goorl~ bnt al~o the necessary profit of the seller atHi the duty. So JOU see tile people instead of the mouopolitits pny the tnrifE Another reason why the tariff shoulrl be rerluce0 iq simply because the govemment has no neect for the money whi ch arises from this high duty. Our torm ofgovemme.nt is .sneh tha~ tb~ people are its _principal (nctor-while the officials from the pn·si<Jent clown nr'? merely the. people'" ('tnployers. It th refore seems prep9sterous bn t nev~rtlwl et'~ true that the employee shon lrl take from the employer mun ey for whkh he has no nee<l whatever, keeping, it from theregnlar channels of commerce and allowing it tv lie idly when it is so mnc:h needed to give to our .business tha t imputns so necessary to youthful industries. It is therefore evident to you that the mvney is not neerle<l anrl conseq\'iently the tariff tax is nnnecessry, President Clevelend in hi s letr.er ,>f ncceptance snid"' UnnPcessnr.r tnxntion is unjn ~t taxation." To o•>tain a fair irlea of ~"tll" present financial affairs it is but necessary to sny that $113,000,000 lies irlly in the trea~ury.Tbil" is the state of our country at tbe present time and if affair~ Are carried on mnch longer as they have been in the past.

This ct·y of free.trnd e is simply th~ fabt:ication of an ene my's minct. Presirlent Cleveland , Ju {lge 'fhuq:nao and Speaker Carlisle . declare pollitiv~ly that free-lrarle is not wanterl hut that the raw tn ~\eria!s sl)ould be admitted free of duty . To expose bri(llf% .yetfot•cibly the doctrine of Democracy but few wotds 'are' needed. The party wants the tariff reduced simply because the money derived from this exces::~ive duty comes f1·om the poor and wheti colle cted is not ne<,ded to entry on the government. This money not ne~·ded .invites extravagant appropriation on the part of Congress and being kept from business does it material harm . These few facts which I have mesented are, not new ones but repetition mars not their beauty not causes them to lose their trnthfulness. And, in

concluding this brief epitome of Democracy it is pleas_ urable to remark that the day is not far off when the majority of this R~public guided by good sense, will unite under the em blazoned banner of 'tariff reform' and deciare themselves for that party founded by Jefferson, strengthened by Jackson and so fearlessly upheld

by Grover Cleveland.

A BOOK THAT AMUSED AND INSTRUCTED ME.

It is fashionable nowadays to wr it0 u f.> OD st;teh subjects. Therefore, etc ... . I harl just returned from. "my sunny"southern home,'' my mind still' impressed wi,th the lively pictures of vacation, which my imagination continnallv repict.ured. I sitting thus brooding over .joys that had fled, .when a little book, "Liberalism and the Church,'' was hanrled to me.

I opened it with reverential care and "" I gRzed up on the first page, I resolved not to rea·! it. , -"Why?" said the donor!

- "0h!" saic~ I, it is on(! of Brolvus o a · ~ wur ·s Hncl in my present state of mind I could never rea r! ir.." ''Well" continued the Rev. "try it."

I did. I turned over a few. more pag\'~ . 11. !!TP.w m " · ' · and more interesting as I proceeded. I :>till cu11Liu ueti to peruse it !l.dmiring all the time the wisdom of the priest and curiously watching the hows and whys of the editor, who was a man of our times, ani mated with the spirit of the age.

Indeed to tell the t rut h I at the start favored the editor.

I ehuckled inwardly at the intellectual tournam ent: the editor tbrowing out his subtle and difficult qu-13stic;ms, and the priest valiantly wrestling with t em; \ but it pa ined me indeed , I must say, to see thecleve~-. news­ p::>.per man knocked about here and there in the field of argument.

The editor not witbst.an ding the variou:; bruises and cuts be ltH.c! recei v•·d still persisted iu telling tbP- priest that he ohjeeted to tbe Church's dogmas.

- "On wbat aul.huri ty ?" demanded the priest.

•·On the authority of reason: No better authority is needed for a rational being."

-"Do you say the dogmas of the Church contradict reason r" -- "Certainly! her dogmas are unpardonable and . absurd."

-"Does it mean 'in your vocabtdary anything. more than that they do not lie in the . plane of reason, and that by reason alone you are unable to see or demonstrate these truths?" .

- I t me:• ns that they ~re contrary to reason and are in~rin~icaUy incredible."

"That is 1\ ser ions a~f'erlion an<i I presum e y.ot~ fl!'C reany to prOYC jt."

- "Th:~t is easy <.'l).ough" says t'he e•li tor, '·b.ut it wonld necel:lsitatc a sort of <'!iscussion for wh ich I have -

no taste."

- "I <io not clou bt it" respondetl the pries t , who pro cee<len to reconcile reason ann faith .. . . I had noticed <'luring all t his time the rn.pin ch ange of subj ects which tlw m etropolit an editor was bou nrl to r<~sor t to in o rd er to stan•l a show ng11inst i1is mighty opponent. . The eclitor seemed pos~essed of an insatiable appetite to kuow everything anrl to know it a ll i1i a bunch, or a,S Sheridan says,- "l-Ie wishecl to know a ll nhout Gorl in one word." The how's. anrl why's o f the ed itor am userl me n·ot:1. little and k ept up my interest: - "Infidel s". s~.ys I.arnbert, "uave no cornurs on how's. How do yoc~ think? How do you know .that you · know anything?

How do you know th n.t yon :1.re, and thP.t you ar e what. you are and n ot something else ?"!! Nuts for the infidel to f'mck between acts.

I also noticed th n.t the ed itor n ~ver answe red questions but. h e was a! ways ask ing them n.n<l o nce w hen nsked to prove n.n assertion that he harl ad vancccl, he <l eclin e<l on thP plea ••that it was a sort of discussion which he had no taste for .... '' "I do ubt so."

The editor still c0nLinuPd to shift topics n,s I n,dv~ n­ ced ;-"he first began by objecting t o the cb ur cl1--no t as a' theologian b ut as a publicisf-that 5he held principleE and authorit.ed practices rl a ngero us to liberty . b ostil l-. to progress and at war with modern civilization and then he attacked her m a in tcnchings in n, w:~y whieh seemed unanswerable! all thes·e rlark ol .jections vanished before t.h e clear logic and better know ledge of t he priest.

As I came to the end of the work I noticerl the ed iLor's d isappefrance. He went aw'.Ly I a m sure totally im persua,ded. All the arg um ents that the pri es t uttered which so baffled him passed to the wind . He might hax e a,dmired them for their brilliancy; but woulrl not a llow hi s mind to consider and weigh their tr uE- wo1·t h ; a practice which many of like ilk tolto<v a11d wh ieh recalls the old max im: "A man persnaded ag<tinst his own will is of the same opinion st. ill.'

Enfin, d'après les ordres reçus de qui de droit, le · Roi partit le matln suivant à quatre heures pour le Schloss Berg. , Ce château .n'est qu' à une petite di st!trwe au Sud-Ouest de Munich. !,.es chars ou les tramways, si l'o"n veut., nous conduisent <l.Starnberg, vilhge d' envir.on 19JO habitants . el situé à la pointe Nord d'un lac du· ·même nom. Ce lac, h: plus beau de .la Btvière, affeete un peu la forme d' un triai;gle aigu dont la base est an ·Sud-Ouest. ·Il esL longde 13 miles a peu près sur· une largeur de-l à 3 miles. Le Schloss Berg est sis au côté Est du Starnbergersee, mais il e<>t impossible d' y aller par terre. Le va. pear nous y transporte en dix minutes, ou bien la ellaloupe en Une df>mÎ-heure. Tout le long du trajet les contours du lac offrent Loutes les variétés que puisse fournir la nature. Ènfin l' on entrevoit Je châ.teau comme un cottage au ·miiieu des arbres et des rnonticulea. Un série de montagnes s' é tagent au loin en fermant solidement l'horizon; ce sont 'les Alpes bu Milieu.

Il n' en a cependant pa~ toujqurs été ain@i, car av ant la construction d' autres èhfi.teaux, celui de Berg était le rendez-vous d'un monde bruyant "qui le fréquentait comme lieu d' agréable passe temps. Le Schloss Berg. est d'ttilleur l' un des anciens châteaux de Ja Bavière.

Il n'est pas très-spacieux, mais de jolie appa renee. li est presque carré et flanqué à chaque coin d' une tour qui surpasse 'd'un étage le' corps de la bâtisse. Au centre de l' une des f<:l.cades se trouve la tour princi)1ale. Elle est crénellée comme les autres, mais plus élevée et porte le drapeau nàitional. Le châtQau comprent un souba~semeut· et deux · étages séparés par une· élégante galerie. · te carré se termine· en ct·éneaux, puis le toit en cro1,1pe · est couronné d' une jolie plate-forme.

_:_ Our scenic artists Rev. A. M. Granger and Bro. Gignac are busily engaged putting the finishing touch. es on some elegant new scenery especially for the production of the "Ticket of Leave Man" on Oct. 23rd.

While in Chica,<>'O Father Dooling received a severe bruise on his right hand while protecting two knights from the vicious kick of a horse. We trust the Rev. Geotleman will not long have to suffer the pain ·and inconvenience brought vn by the accident.

-We cannot refrain from inserting a few words o( p~i e and congratulation for the delicste a.nrl refined taste Mr. Kelly, our euargetic sa1-ristan, has continu. ally exhibited in dressing the chapel altars.

- Profs. Chalifoux and Roy, two prominent Chicago musicians are down on the programme for two numbers on Tuesday night. We teet assured that all who come will be deHghted with their selections. · - A. mOst delightful excursion was that of the Dooling Knights of the Sword to CbiCHgo, on Thursday, Oct. 11th. While in Chicago everything immaginable was done by the friends of the Rev. Spiritu11.l Director to make the day a pleasant one in every respect. The Knights sre especially indebted for hospitality to the Holy Name School, Mesdames 1\IcCartby and Sampson, and Mr. Maloney, to whom they extend sincere thanks.

ERRATUM Owing to the newness of our proof-reader a rather awkward omission is found in the Editorials. IDstead of: "Our defects are readily observed by the man of let. ters; nor do we usually escape the criticism of the un. lettered, a.nd Ollf ideas properly connected, eV'en the uneducated men will readily perceive it;" read: ''Our defects are readily observed by the man of letters, nor do we usually escape the criticism of the unlettered. If our language is simple, pure, and easy to comprehend and our ideas properly connected, even the uneducated ma:J will readily perceive our meaning." Also _in the sentence: "He should be careful in his choice of works none but the best:'' s ·ly-"t·e:~.d none but the best."

"PHILIPS RESTITUTION" That the student who ptrpetuall y dwells in paradi.saical gardens thickly sown with greek roots and other such rare plants, mUBt sometimes allow biJD.&elf a leiturely walk in the less dense by-ways of fiction is no longer a debated question. Students must and will read light lit. erAture. And if while doing so, while intellectually amusing themselves, they are not exposed Lo injure them· selves, it is well; but if their mental recreation not only is not injurious but also a source of health, pleasure and 8 u hstantial informatioll, t.hen it i& capital iooeed.

The prayer book was given to Mother Seton by Bishop Severus of Boston and bears·an inscription in that prelate's writing. _E,trly in November tbere will be a meeting of the Trustees of the Catholic University to decide upon the last particnfars Of the University and to draw up the course Of studies to be foll.:>wed thet·ein.

He says to an enemy: ''The Catholic Church has, by the voices <•f Twenty Popes, 11nrl in the last in~tancc by that of Leo XIII, "as contrary to the law of Na.tions; .the hunting ·and s•lle of men." \ The eyes of all the European world were turned .to Rome most recently to behold the meeting of William II and Leo XHI.

A grand pilgrim!lge to the Holy Land is now being organized in New York ami throughout- the States. Itis the fi·r st of-tlie k ind e,·er n.ttempt('d in om· country.
