Tn n·jecting lt·nnscenrlentnli ~ m the positivistsdeny all t,ruth. Heitce their vnunted 1<eience i'l without. foundation fior alllmowlerlge rests on the fund:unent:d principl<'s of trnn~ct'nrlent. Ail~m.

Th:ere is ;1~1 g<>rm of ci viliz ttinn or govemment in a J>utely natmnl .Jtate. anrl hence it cou ld not he rl eve l" oped, spontaneon~ly or otherwise.

Even granting some germ according to evolntionism or the Dflrwini::t11 theory nnrl grllnting- spontaneous reiiroduction, the thrnry is still insu fficient. As every ldnd produces <only fts k!nrl nnd as nll hybrid s ure st.erile no am ount t>f devrlopmt-nt would generate a new orner nf heing.

But grnnting the ~ponta.neous rlevelopmeot. of species, whence comes the right. to govern? Certainly not from concretP. 11:t t nre for then the govern,,r nnrl the governerl wnulr1 be id en Lical which is a contr!lclict.ion, an impossil,ility .

Positivists s:ty lha.t the right to govern comes from a. law inherent in nature. If they mean the intelligent, moral corle, commonly" callerl conscience, they must admit an all-wise Creator for this law is not inlterent in concrete nature. lt is the Infinite Reason of the Creator communic.1ling His will to Hi s creatures. Government

·would then originate nvt in natura but in natur~'s God. If they m~an Llle regular physical ch.'!nges which are laws imposed on nature by the Creator we have again the ideJ,tity of governor anrl governed as stated above.· 1'he5e physical changes or laws imposed on nature are not intelligent; t LlE-y are only the actualization of a germ ci·eation.

Nut in .positivism then, do we find :t solution to ott!' problem . PosiL.ivi'sm is contradictory in pllilosuplly ami degrading t(> unm~nily. ..

Po!itic:d 'Xriters o,ft.he Middle nge,s, · intent on establislling ceutr'llized :power ~s . a ~·emedy fur tlle evils ot feudalism , asserteri thn:t govemment derives its right from the :mmediate and express appointment of God. Wishillg to estalilislt regal u.uLhority on religious lMsis they ex11ggerated principles and cOJl vertecl royal power into an absorbent force tending t'). concenLrate in itself all other forc-es. Monarchy thus . los t its true charn.cter which consists .in Llaving just limit-s, and drifted ou towards oriental . despotism in which the governing power was evet'yLhing, the peoplt' anrl their affairs uuthing.

ThP. cllurch has been clCCU~~d Of teaching these princi pies uf Jespotism. If so '·'t hey would certai uly appear iu the writings of · hrr doctors or theologians. '\Ve find o n the co ntr:;ti'Y, · the most e nlightened opinions on the subjeet in St. Tllomas, Suarez, Bell:trmine, Ligonri anrl in our own illo1strious Ba,lrnes.

Th e doctrines of th e Catholic Church on government have been conuemncrl without being hea1·d or examined, her enemies copying one another's cal umni es withont referring t o the real sonrces where they might easily have fouud the truth.

Tlle ad vaca tes of this theory hold that the right to command is vested in the superior and ea.n not belong to the communit.y since it is not superior. In one sense the commnnity is 11 0t. superior to itself and in another sense it i:;. The community considered collectively i ~ ecr tninly superior to · i't<>elf considered indi viriun.lly; regarded as a n organic wllole it can com ouuni cnte it~ su periority or delegate ils authority in trust to an individual.

Power resides in the community by llatural right, but in tltc inrlividualrulel' only by .human and delegate\1 right. The positive law being taken away tllere is nu reason why one m :tn sl.wuld govern rather than anotheJ'.

Society in it~ pcrfectiou i.e. in the state, must have the power of self-preservation independently of individuals.

It must therefore pu«se~s· s upreme power immediately.

No individual and no family ca.n presume upon having directly from God the governmeut of a people.

Tl ri, year of grac.e, 1889, is one tlmt wi II lurr g have a p l:\ee in the memori es of Au~e ri ca 's citizem;. .Almost at it:; dawn we made ready to celebrate tl1 e first one hundred year.; ufour cou stitutio11al exi&tence.

This glot·ions event was celeb rated on April 30, amid the roaring of cannon the bu rsting of fireworks t ire !'?oTatitnd e of and sho11ts of •·1'oy, :ua nifestina 0 sixty m ill ions of lhe world's frees t and m o~t intelsouo-!1 t th e repose th at ligent men. The g 1111 Shaveaaa.in 0 0 true liberty iu :;nres them ; the fi reworks are ex tin guio:;hed and th e slJOut&of triumph lta\' e died away, but the memory oCtl1 e tri llllJ phs then co HtllleJlllllprat ed sti ll linger,; in !he IJreasts of our citizens. But it were uut meet that sut:h a meuwt·aul e year sltould mark o11l y one victory; o1· that Ol l r people should be forgetful , of other. s nccesses. :\ u t' was jt thu s.

Th e closi11g days of this year witn essed another celebration which "vas a so nrce of great joy to a large part of our people a11J a spectacle of ·interest to many others. A nother centennial has dawned upon us, that of the permanent foundation of the Catholic Chnrch in this country. In this great e1·cnt is fuud fur tho ught. Here \Verc 1r oticed triumphs

.

I.et us take a hasty l'eview of the formatiu11 ao,d growth of the Catholic Church in the Gnited States.

When ,, one huudreJ years ago, Fath!'l r John Oarroll was appoin ted Bish1>p, he found the Ohut·eh without orgauization ; .the few Catholics w.ere scattered ov.e r an imm.ense- territory, aud \\·e1·e persecnted with a'll the f nry that uigotry could snggt>st. His jm·i,$dietion extended O\'er the who le country; he had about thirty priests and there were upwards of 30,000 Catholic~.

The fi rst thought of Bishop Carroll was to secure priests a nd teachers for his flock. H e iudueed the l::; ulpicia ns to open a Semi11ary for the trainiHg of yo nng men for tlte pries t.ltood. They did so and chose Baltimot·e fo1· its site. CommtmitieR of N uno came ow:rfrom E urope and open ed schools in various: partr-; of the con nt•·y. The great French R evolu tion was ragi ng at this time and priests were forced to lly from their cou ntt·y aud seek r efnge here. They found a good ft-ieml in Dishup Carroll and t.h1w re r1Jered hiru g reat ass ist<:wce. Dubois first bish op~f New Y or·k and Olltln;rlls of Boston at•e n ame~; too well 1JU\\' to need J'ur tl1er mention.

Bishop Ca t:t·oll soon l1ad the satisfaction of seei ug the Clllirch get a firm footlwld in this country and thong!1 e"e u at l1i s death which occnred iu 1815, the Chun :h co ul d ltardl;v· uc :mid to l;e perfeetly estab_ li shed, yet, the hold i t had and the success it. euj uyed were in a g reat 1u ea~·ure du e to the energy of the first American B ishop. '\Vhat ll!ie to r eco unt tir e <~t nwu l es and victories · 00 ' 111any a re uow li,·i11g wlr o saw the Clrnrch pass through her wo rst ord eah; a nd who 11 0\\' rejoice with h er in her tri1rtrrplt . A few \\'OI'd s will sum ~lp. In one cent ur·y th e Olum:h lms inereased h om 30,000 to 12, UOO,UOO O J' from a proportion of oue in every 100 to one in e very fh e of the aetual popu lation aud thio in the face of e1·ery obstacle. There is a g reat tlwug h_t be)li_nJ tl1i.s auJ 11011- Catlwlics -wonld find profitable matt.er for refl ecti on, if they could lay aside their perj ndicei::i, ami ealm ly consider the case.

If then the C hurch has l1acl such a marked' s nce-t·ss in the past centnry, when circumstances so conspired against h er, what may we not hope for in the nex t hnncii·ed years, uow that she is so firml y established and numbers so many faithful children.

LI1'ER A.RY N OTES. "8t. N icholas" for N ovember commences a n ew voh:une, and abounds with good things for the little ones. It m ain_ tains the high standard 1t has always held.

"A short Cut to t he 'l'rue Church" by Hev. Father Edmund Hill C. P. is a con cise argument addressed to all who believe in the divinity o(Christ and the inspirations of the gospels showi.ng that the logical result of t heiT belief is the Chu rch of I{ome. Tbe writer undertak es to reinove from tile path of th e serious inquirm; four mountai ns-t~e pope, t ransubstantiation, t he confessional, and the immaculate conceptiom A li those he claims are based upon scriptura1 texts, which he cites freely. The book is clearly written and there i£ no mistaking its meaning. ·

Chica,c;o H em ld,"L ect nres on E nglish L iterature " is the title of an excellent work just published by Maurice Francis '.Egan, L . L . D· Tlte prin cipal nwrit of t l1is work is the wisdom ·which the author shows in discrim inating between trne and false lite-,- J r ature, anrl it is for this reason that th e book should -be ( · recommended to all youn g persons who desire to att.ain a good, forcible, and elegant E nglish style. I n the tirst chapter the author says that literature is one of the principle f actorsin life; and in the n ext chapters he makes some observations on the literary influence of Clutucer, Southwell and sevt!ral oth er E nglish wri~ ers . But t he most valu able lect ures in· the book are those on "A estlw,tics" and "Li terature and Mann ers;" fo r here we fi nd Mr. Egan in his tntfl eLar acter as a writer.

If so, you can go by t he lYi on on R oute via L ouisville aml

Mammoth Cave, or Cincinnati and Chattanooga, Binningham, Montgomery, Mobile an Ll Ute gulf coast f or the sa me that will take yon thro ugh the dreary, uninhabited Mississipi swamps ; we are conHdent you cannot select another line to the South enj oying half' the advantages that are possessed by tbe :Mon on Route ancl its so n them connections.

N o one should think of goi ng s6nth without visiting the }',{am moth Cave, the great n a.turaJ wonder of this continent .

So much has been written of this worlll fam ous wonder tha.t it is impossible to say anythi ng new in regard to it. It cann ot be described ; its (•a.verns must be explored, its darkness felt, its beauties seen, to be appreeiated or r ealized. It is the greates t curiosity- N iagant n ot excepted. Or, F lorida ward, pass en route over the old Historical Battle F ields along the line of the I'V. & A. or t !H' K ' I' . V . &; G. Hailw::~~ys.

F rom Mobile to New Orl eans (141 miles) tlte ride along the gulf coast is alone worthy the en tiro cost of the whole trip.

In full sight of t he wa,y, past Ocean t:lprin gs, Mississippi City, Pass Chri sti<m, Hay i:3t. Louis <UHl Bean voir, the home of J eff Davis. ·when you decide to go south make up your ri:l.iml to ravel over the lin e tlwt pr.sses through the best country and gives you the best places to stop over. This is emphat ic· ally the Mon on Route, in · connection with the L ouisville and Nashville, and the Cincinn ati Southern Hail ways, Pnllm an palace sleepers aml pala.ce coaches, do ubl e daily trains.

The best to Cincinnati , Louisville, New Orleans. or F lorida.
