“We gave the Democrats an overflow:
they desire t y do with it,” said Mr. Sher.
man at Columbus on L incoln’ 8 birthday.
That is one way to look at it, to be eure,
but this overflowing treasury is the re-
gnlt of needless and oppressive taxation
which the Republicans also “gave the
Democrats,” and which the Democrats
propose to reform. These high taxes
have promoted and nourished John
Sherman's stout friends, the monopolists
and trusts, every one of which President
Cleveland declares presents a c'ear case
“for an easy redaction of taxation.”

The Folly weighed anchor. As she ap-

“Here comes Clarke. What rae you going

The answer came from the Nickel : “Stand
your ground, surround him and don't let

A dignitary at the Propaganda gives the
following resume of the controversy i-—-
| “At the Propaganda,” he says, ‘‘the Irish

Ireland-—by which Pope Leo means not enly

priests are mostly of Irish descont. In the
eolonies the Church would have languished
had not the Irish clergy come to the rescue.
Buch being the case, it behooves the Vicar
of Christ not to crush ine nationalist
movement.
“The other side of the question, as urged
by the Duke of Norfolk, shows that home
rule is only another word for separation,
The fact that special penal laws no longer
exist, and overy Irishmen enjoys the privi
leges of a Pritish subject, proves that there
is no inherent principle of persecutien in
England's dealings with Ireland.
“Moreover, a party has arisen in England,
headed by Gladstone, prepared to take up
the Irish question in the largest sense.
Such being the case, and SBeotland being
as much an integral part of the United
Kingdom as Ireland, it would be falal to
the interests of the Holy See and its Cath-
olic subjects all over the world to allow it

In conclusion, the English party st the

tion of the Holy See in Germany and its in-
fluence for good between Ireland and
