Hough, a Methodist, says of Dr. Hough: Dr. Hough is pastor of one of' the biggest temples of worship in Detroit The Central M. E. Church-——and he him- self is acknowledgedly one of the great- est leaders in his faith and in 1libe thought; his utterances are watched on three econtiments and, not by Methodists alone. Here he answers—affirmatively, firmly, vigorously—for political safety under a Catholic ident. There is not a line of truckling or evasion in his article. Have the. Catholics certain bigotries tp live down? he asks. Then, he says, o have the Protestants! If this article does not excite your admiras tion, write us for thejreturn of your thirty-five cents. You “will get it--hy air mail! Dr. Hough thinks that veason for Protestants to fear a Catholic Presi- dent, but, all things heing equal, he believes that it would be well for the country for us to have one, and, he thinks, the time is ripe for it. Space forbids the reproouction of all of Dr. Hough's well considered and timely article, but we commend to Empire readers the graphs lere presented: When a Protestant refuses to vote for a Catholic whose character and abili- ties he admits and with whose policies and makes that refusal sim- e the candidate is a Catholic, that Protestant is not worthy of the name or of the privilege of American citizenship. Men of good-will in the Protestant groupy ought to be eager that Catholics should have a share in public office in proportion to their percentage of the population, and should be watch- ing for Catholic candi whom they can conscientiously supj And is not too much to say that in the presence of the great body of earnest and loyal and capable citizens of the Roman Cath- olic communion to be found in the United States, we confront a situation which makes moral demands upgn all of ug. We should not rest quite contented until the time has come when we can place a high minded Catholic, a man of unquestioned character and ability, in the chair of the Presidency of the United States. There will always be plenty of Protestant Presidents, There ought to be an occasional Catholic President. * » * There are those who have hesitations regarding Roman Catholic leadership because they fear the attitude produced by the teaching of that com- munion regarding such matters as birth control, and fear that the occupation by members of that church of/ powerful political positions may tend to result in legislation which is of a reactionary character in respect of many matters which have no - direct connection with ecclesiastical affairs, but do connect Ahemselves very definitely with certain teachings of the Roman Catholic C hurch.

L The Grand Reunion. (Cincinnati Znquirer.) The really grand reunion of military will take place—il eve when' the blue and the gray veterans of the Civil War shall meet in fraternal comradeship in annual encampment This should have heen arranged and accomplished long and long ago. The ranks of these historic armies have been sadly, dreadfully thinned. To day the youngest of the men who saw heroic service in the War of the Rebellion m 1 the weight of 80 years on ‘his shoulders her the blue nor the gray surviving veterans can hope to take part in many more annual gatherings. Why can they no thave at least one meeting to- gether? What a spectacle that would be! What memories would come stealing among the ranks of such pathetic, herolc remnant of the hosts that once met in deadly fray ,n some the most B ge hattles in all the history the world! The history of of old, harsh emotions of the civil strife have been softened by the touch of Time, the great healer. No more does the ‘“‘rebel yell” thrill} with the dread of apprehension; no mor2 does the ‘“bloody shirt,”” waved bhefore the gaze of Southron veteran, excite to a delirium of mad- ness, for Northman and Southron have become brothers indeed. Today “Dixie” and ‘Yankee Doo- dle” mingle their strains with the smiles and shoutings of those who once heard them as an inspiration to mortal conflicts. Today the per- fume of the magnolia of the South and the car- nation of the North breathe the sweet odors of peace. The hoof of the war horse no more spurns the dust of American grim battle fields, and the roar of the great guns and musketry of inter- necine strife has passed into the corridors of memory. Why not have the ‘“‘grand” reunion? There is talk of abandoning the meetings of the Grand Armies of the Republic and the Confederate or- ganization. That should never be. It probably will never happen while veterans of either side are able to get together. The fact is indicated in the gallant recent declaration of the Nationalj Commander of the G. A. R., who said: | The Grand Army will stick to- gether as long as there are two of its members alive. | But the remorseless years claim their tofl.| Soon but few of these heroes will be left alive. So, in the near future let us hope that the decimated blue and gray legions, for once, at least, may foregather together in historic, heaft- touching comradeship. | PRSI RS R SR 50 P The Anti-Saloon League has decided to ngm} the Marshall law referendum and to keep,in the Ohio statutes the enactment of the last Legis- lature to nullify a decision of the Supreme Court/ of the United States, And we criticize Bolshe-| vism!-—(Cincinnatl Enquirer.) | Ever since the oldest imhabitant can mnem-] ber, the British Empire has been on tht verge of disruption, defeat, decay, disappearance and all the other alliterative evils.
