Now, I am not a Catholic but I would be willing to leave the settlement of too anttburroom question to the Catho lic bishops. Cardinal 'Mahnlng says: "Prevention of Intemperance 5s not only better than cure but prevention ts a duty, and cure la a lame, halting attempt to undo an «vll which we have wilfully per mitted.” lie further said in a speech at the Liverpool temperance congress: "I say openly afid boldly. If the pres ent condition of England cannot be cured twltihouc a Maine law, a Maine law I .would have. I admit that a Maine law may be callod an extreme remedy; but have I not already proved that there is an extreme evil, and Of temporizing measure* wilt not remedy thla dvll, let us have an extreme remedy. • • • • How to that men who prole's to be statesmen can avaate their time and tho time ot the legislature before they .take this subject In hand?" Tho great Cardinal Newman made utterances equally as strong. In America the greatest of the Catho lic Bishops Is that grand American ora tor, preacher, reformer and statesman (as be deserves to be called) Bishop Ireland.
