LOUISVILLE, KY. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1915. CHANT HIM FAITH. Tho people or the United States have every faith In -President Wilson in this day ot his trials. Wo owe him something more than lip service for the calm deliberation that holds tho dogs of war In leash. If ho had listened to Henry Watterson and every hotspurt who prated about maintaining the honor of this coun try we would have been tangled In a most Inglorious war, and while resentment may have its place In politics It does not outrank Judicial reasoning. . In these perilous times It behooves all good citizens to pray to God to illumine, direct and strengthen the President that he may pilot the Ship of State safely through the lowering storms. Upon his coolness, courage, clearness of vision to see the light, firmness and patriotism depend the welfare of tho republic. May the Holy Spirit bo his light and his In spiration! HOW A HE WE TO GET OUT? To the Pan-American appeal for peace which has been sent to prom inent men In Mexico, Francisco Villa has telegraphed his acceptance, but a number of the Carranza men have replied that only the "First Chief" It authorized to make answer for the so-called Constitutionalists. Car ranza himself has moved from Vera Cruz to Mexico City and from there he 13 expected to refuse any co operation with outside Influences, to denounce any Interference In Mexi can affairs, and to Insist that he be recognized as the de facto ruler ot the country The reverend editor of the True Voice, who has followed closely the situation in Mexico, said last week that he expected no other result from the appeal. Such homilies make no Impression on the men we have cncourgjEd .in .their lawlessness for two years past7 Wo have now got into a nice predicament in regard to Mexico and we have only our selves to blame for it. How we snail get out is the question that Is now puzzling our statesmen In Washing ton. The situation is not improving any, either. Reports from Washington Indicate that Carranza will insist upon recog nition by the United States. There Is little likelihood that it will be accorded him or his faction. All along our Government has been more inclined to favor Villa than Carranzaz. Wo think there Is little choice between them and neither of them is fit to be entrusted with con trol of conditions in Mexico. But we shall soon have to choose between the bandit who fawns upon ub and o bandit who defies us. COMES FROM GREAT BRITAIN. (When Russia, the present ally of England, decided to make cotton contraband in 1905, (Britain's dls pleasuro was voiced tin a protest in no uncertain terms, as the following note delivered to Russia by Great Britain shows: "Tho quantity of raw cotton that might be utilized for explosives would bo infinitesimal in compari son with the bulk ot the cotton: exported from "India to Japan tor peaceful purposes, and to treat harmleea cargoes of this latter description as unconditionally con traband would be to subject a 'Branch of innocent commerce, which is gpeelally important in the Far Bast, to a most unwarrantable lnT terference." Tea years later, ,in 1915, Qreat Britain declared United States cotton contraband. The difference wae this: 'Russia's crop came In great quantities from India, there fore (England's products were affected. American protests matter, little, iBngland has decided cotton, shall b contraband. RESENTS ATTACKS, The 6a Francisco Star, reseating be attaKS on tmairman ifranK alsfV, of the Commission on In- Isirial Relatione, wants the facts lout the industrial unrest in this mtry. The facts are more im- taut than the feelings of John Rockefeller, Jr., and should be it out, even if the 'bringing of aut raises goose ftamp on some of our more timid1 le testimony of- Ivy Lt; press agent in the uniea, shows how .other Interest have relations in this condition end PRINTING CO., Incorporated, Puhll.hare still maintain them in tho condition that fully justifies the existence of the Commission on Industrial Relations, and also the alleged objectionable methods of Chairman Walsh. The commission does not exist for tho purpose of giving the Rockefellers an opportunity to clothe themselves in summer gar ments of whitewash. It Is not at, all difficult to understand why tho Eastern papers have turned against Chairman Walsh. He has been, showing up special privilege; he has dared to call attention to the blightj of landlordism. He has thus at tacked the very inner temple ot privilege, the holy of holies of those who exploit industry and ore responsible for industrial unrest. That is an unpardonable crime in the eyes of special privilege. The owners of privilege know what is wrong, but they don't want the' people to know what Is wrong. Frank P. Walsh wants the people to know. Hence the denunciations of him. PREJUDICE. Prejudice and hatred assume various forms, but tho expression of bigotry is recognized by the same extremes of thought and action which at the present time so shame fully characterize the State ot Georgia. Georgia contains a popula tion of approximately two and a half million. Out of that large number of people there are no more than, eighteen thousand Catholics, count ing men, women and children. It la, absolutely certain that If the religious etatistics wore reversed the namo of Georgia might not be spojten with dorlslon by all the papers throughout tho country. CATHOLIC PRIEST. A render of the Catholic Bulletin or St. Paul asked this question: "If a person is dying with diphtheria or any other contagious disease, can a priest go and give him tho sacra ments?" And here is the reply: "A priest is not only free to administer the necessary sacraments to one dying from a contagious disease, but he is obliged to do bo, oven at the risk of his own life. It is not un known that priests who administered the sacraments to people afflicted with contagious diseases have thus acquired the disease and died; but even though a priest were certain thfif Diinl. n ...ini.l, .m.l.1 JUtt-... 1 I...UI. ouvi, 4 ICOUU WUUIU IUI1UW JUiM' visit to the sick, he would consider his life well spent In giving spiritual aid to tho dying." Almost every day we read of some priest who has risked his life to save that of another person; Indeed It Is frequently to be noted that the priest has sacrificed himself for the sake of one in danger. The Catholic priest, to all appearances, has abso lutely no fear of death. In emer gency he will take any risk for another. It Is his duty so to do and he never shirks. And how do we regard the anointed one who will do so much for us who Is doing for us every day? We meet him on the afreet and -pass him by, just as If he wero one of the common crowd; we show him no mark of respect; often times we fall to recognize the cloth. This is not right. The priest should have our deepest regard. Possibly wo may not be personally acquainted with him, but we know him to be one of God's anointed and he is entitled to our salute. When you pass a Catholic church you raise your hat; you do so because you know the Blessed Sacrament Is within the tabornacle. Do you not realize that tho priest is the only one who may handle the Sacred Host? Surely under the conditions he is entitled to the recognition which his office should Inspire. Gentlemen, when the priest passes you on the street raise your hat. separate American passengers, from British ammunition. Trouble will not follow this course. MEMORY OP COUSIN. Beautiful and tender was the thought of two prominent non-CathJ ollc gentlemen of New Orleans, that prompted them to honor the memory of a dear dead Catholic relative by; a generous gift given to a cause that they knew would have touched her, gentle heart the' care anil protee- tlon of young girls.
