About 30 percent, of the population lived In towns and cities of 3 000 population and over In li90. These facts nie neces tai In considering municipal mlsruio, corruption, vice and briber.

This incident serves to illustrate why tho poli tician is moro dangerous to our govern ment than tho camblei, or the saloon ke per NOT EMIGRANT B FAULT Is tho fault with the emigrant who seeks to escape the privations of his own country and to find plenty for himself anil family hero? No; It Is not. 'I he lault Is with American citizenship, with out patriotism In regard for tho ballot box Wo will seo dalk dajs nnd bloody iltos if this coiditlou is not changed lint how 7 It must bo done by spiritual and educational ciupndo through tho church and school. Llko tlio liquor evil it ovists because, tho counti 's citizenship will have It so. We havo OuO.tXK) citizens In tho church of Ood. What could not ho accomplished by them for good If their effoit was combined? They could accom plish anything. Yet wo seo a deplorablo condition, not only in tho nation but in the city. Kvll Influences are nt tho foro and havo control How will wo got nt tho remedy .' Tlio ballot la tho only means by which the bov eieign citizen teglsteis his opinion on public questions I smllo Inwardly and sometimes outwardly when I hear tho answers ot tome citizens to what is a bal lot' What tho ballot and the uso to which It Is DUt Is a much brouder com bined subject. "Politics" todnv Is not ns Webster described It in his dictionary. Our Christian men and women nro not absolved from a responsibility for a bad stato of affairs Woman can do much by moral Influence nnd should do so. Why? Ilecnuso sho nnd her children nro nffected for better or worso by cvory political act pcrpctratedi Women, however, In this country do not take tho Interest In po litical mutters as they do In Orent Brit ain where they Insplro purer politics for tho bako of their country, their fam ilies and themselves. Much could bo ac complished hero If women stood together for good In these premises, do not ex hort the so-called women leaders; I appeal to you, my hearers, to carry tho question Into your homes and Sabbath school nnd so on and Into tho public schools, CANNOT DC DONE. You cannot build up moral reforms with Immoral elements, If tho peoplo are not roused to tneir uuty tney aro tho prin cipals, and the evil-doers aro the agents. The principals of evil aro not necessarily those who continue It; tho principals aro those who mako It possible, who created It. Those who directly deal In evil can not be accused of being moro than ugents If we by our carclossnods or selfishness put evil In their hands. Let this thought apply to you and your own city. All that Is needed for riform Is that all who seek It shall manifest their lovo nnd Interest In their fellow men und stand together. Thero Is too much standing togothor for the church and too llttlo for Jesus Christ nnd humanity. Ho lies who lovoth his Ood whom ho hus not seen nnd lovcth not tils brother whom he has soon. An Incen tive Is In tho truth that younger genera tion will take cue from what It sees nnd hears. , It iVqot necessary for me tp go Into do tall as iUobJect or niothod ot attaining leform. You know what I mean, you knew all those things beforo you asked The mission for women which was conducted by the Dominican fathers In St. Peter's cathedral last week closed yesterday. The cathedral was crowded at the closing service, as It vvns at every seivlce held during the week, but par tlculnily those of the evenings. Last night the mission for men be gan and wilt continue until tho end of the week. There will be sendees every night this week except Saturday.

The set vices weio opened by ltev. Father Splinter, the director of the mission, who led In tho recitation of the losaiy. He nfter- wnids gave a. short talk on tho losaiy. Ho vvns followed by P.ev. Futher Dlnl hnn, who dellveied the .sermon of the evening. He Is a man of commanding piesence, with a pleasing voice that easily filled the large cathedral. The ttttei mires of the speaker were listened to with the closest attention. He took for his text the Hplstle of the Ttomans, thltteenth chapter, eleventh to four teenth verses: , lirethrcn, knowing the time that It .s now the hour for us to awtho from sleep, for now ou' silvation is nearer than when wo first believed Tho nlhht Is far spent nnd tho day Is nt hand Let us therefore cast off tho works of darkness and put on tho minor of UMit As In tho day let us walk becomingly, not In banqueting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not In contention and jeal ousy Hut put yo on the Lord Jesus Chrlt and mrko not provisions for the flesh In its lusts. The speaker dwelt at length on the value of the &oul and said no earthly calamity could be compared to the loss tho person sustains who loses his soul, for it Is n loss that cm never be 10 paliod hnd never forgotten. Ho spoke of tho sins that endanger one's poul and urged his hearers to avoid them nnd lend clean, pure lives that will make them acceptable in the sight of Ood. He closed with tin eloquent per oration In which he lefeired to the In stability of eaithly rewards and earth ly gloiles and urged his hearers not to Imperil their hopes of eternal salva tion by the pursuit of earthly baubles. There was benediction of the blessed sacrament by Rev Fnther Gough. There will nlo be a mission for the children today and tomoi row. Instruc tions will bo Imparted to them In Col lege hall at 7 30 each moinlng and 3 o'clock In the afternoon. As Is Its annual custom, the John Mitchell club last night fittingly com memorated the nnnlversaty ot Robert Emmot, Ireland's revered young hero nnd maityr. The exercises occurred nt the Academy of Music and were nt- tended by un audience thnt lined the house. Ameilcan nnd Irish Hags were Inter twined nil nbout the stage, bespeak ing, as was the Intent, the sympathy ot America for the oppiessed Green Isle nnd the devotion of tho Irishman for the country wheie he found that without which he cannpt rest liberty. C. T. Roland was chairman of the evening and Attorney M. F. Conry made the commemorative speech. It was nn eloquent effort nnd evoked round nfter round of upplauBe from his auditors. Ono leference that was tecelved In a particularly demonstra tive manner was as to where the Irish American would be found tf the pres ent imminent crisis should call for tt lepetitlon o the services which m tide him famed In the history of American wars. THE OTHER NUMBERS. The opening number of tho pio r.riimmo was a well executed piano solo by Miss Mary Johnson. Edward Walsh followed with a tenor solo, "My Leaf," nnd was compelled to lespond to an encoie. William Gllroy recited YVoolsoy's soliloquy In a veiy accept able manner, and Professor William A.
