LOUISVILLE Ky SATURDAY NOVEMBER 7 1903

KENTUCKY STEADFAST

The people of Kentucky have

spoken in no uncertain voice in

favor of Democracy They have

voted for peace prosperity and

progress They have elected Gov

Beckham thus condemning force

fraud and assassination More

than that the people of Louisville

not only helped to swell the major

ities of the Democratic State can

didates but elected Democratic city

officers legislative and judicial

The Kentucky Irish American

desires to congratulate the Dem

ocratic victors State and local on

their success It asks in return

that each and all of the successful

candidates be true to the trust reo

posed in them by the people of

Kentucky If they are true to

this trust they can each and all ex

pect our support when they again

offer for office But if they become

recreant in their duties the Ken

tucky Irish American will not hesi

tate to condemn their conduct

The election of Tuesday was a

great victory for the Democrats

It showed to the world that the

State is peopled with men who be ¬

lieve in the government of the

people by the people and for the

people Kentucky is now out of

that class of States where men are

not allowed to hold office because

pf their religious convictions Letus hope that it will always remain

so

APROPOS TO THE LIBRARY

Louisville is to have a new

library thanks to Andrew Carnegie

d1he taxpayers of Louisville

The building in which this library

is to be located has not been erected

but it is even now time to be ¬

gin mapping out plans for the lit ¬

erature that is to be there when

it is erected Lest the matterbe overlooked we wonld respect¬

fully call the attention of theLibrary Board to the fact that thereare thousands of Catholic taxpayerswho will contribute to the supportof this library that there are

thousands of IrishAmerican tax ¬

payers who will contribute to itssupport Therefore Catholic liter ¬

ature and Irish liteiature should be

given a place in this new library

In several of the Eastern cities

where libraries flourish the Catho ¬

lic and Irish elements have been

overlooked We do not mean that

the books must be printed in Celticcharacters or in the Gaelic languagebut we mean that there are master ¬

pieces of English literature writtenin the English language by Irishmen and Irish women that thereare gems of prose and poetry writ¬

ten in English by Catholic men andwomen and that all of these should

be placed upon the shelves of theproposed library

We do not believe that any mem

bet of the Louisville Library Board

would discriminate against books

of the kind we refer to but it ispossible that Catholic and Irishliterature might be overlooked

CHURCH MUSIC

ATbesubject of church music

seems To be engrossing the mindsof many leading priests and pre¬

lates at the present time Many

or the foremost thinkers who oc¬

cupy high ecclesiastical positionsinsist upon dinging to the plainGregorian chant white there Tare

equally as many learned teacherswbo uphold classical music

Church music is hardly a matter of

dogma so it does seem that a llay

man hbuld Tie allowed Jo give Voice

to1 his sentimentsXaOcf firsj iplace She chiirch is

the house of God His children

o

seek to beautify iit r with artisticpaintings with myriads of lightsJwith gold and silver and withbeautifully sculptured statuesWhy then should we not add all

that is beautiful in music

We are taught that our HeavenlyFather is loving and forgivingthat when we have finished oUr

career on this earth we will joinHim in the heavenly home pre-

pared

¬

for us ages ago Why thenshould we sing the sorrowfulGregorian chants instead of musictthat is typical of joy and glory

The lark the nightingale and othertbirds of the field praise the jCreiltoriin joyous tones Why thenshouldwe continually cry out in anguishThere are times for all things Noone would think of renderingHaydns Imperial Mass at a re-

quiem

¬

service Why then should

we whine in mournful music atEaster when our redemption was

complete or at Christmas whenIthe angels proclaim Glory to God

on high Peace on earth to men of

good will

Several changes were made inthe standing of the candidates inthe Kentucky Irish AmericansWorlds Fall contest during thepresent week and the interestJ

seems to be unflagging A new

entry has been made in the singleladies race The new candidate is

a member of the Ladies AuxiliaryA O H and is quite popularThe lady in question will in all

probability cut considerable figurein the contest The standing of

the candidates will be published

next week Those who haveclipped ballots for their friendsshould send them in at once Newand old subscribers have the rightto cast fifty votes on the paymentof one dollar

LondonlTl1Underertucky prototype the LouisvilleTimes under date of FridayOctober 30 saideThe Irish arebetter off in Ireland than America

says John Redmond not with anelection coming on1 Hpweverthe Irish of Louisville have grownaccustomed to expect dirty flings

from the Times And yet when itcomes to a question of finances theeditor of the Times is just as gladto get an Irish dollar as any otherdollar

The Kome correspondents ofAmerican newspapers continue todistribute Cardinals recklessly

throughout the United States Onething is certain Catholic Cardinals

are not named by newspapers andmany of the predictions fall farshort of the truth

111 the death of Wi11lam Fitz-

gerald editor of the Cathplc Jour ¬

nal of the South at Memphis Cathblic journalism has lost One of Itsablestl exponents and the South aloyal citizen We extend our heartfelt sympathy to his family in thisItheir hour of trial

Next to bodily cleanliness icxerciscmay be reckoned as the greatest ala tobeauty In fact exercise is almost necessary to cleanliness for it is a great In4

ceritive to perspiration which isnatureaway of throwing the impurities of tjiebody to the surface of the skis fromwhich they are then removed by the riseof water Open air exercised should etaken every day but according tostrength One should return hornejifterwalking riding pr cycling with a seij

In bright or cloudy weatherIn sunshine or in rain

In happiness or sorrowIn pleasure or in pain

It helps me in my strugglesIt reproves trie wbenI sin

Its look of gentle patienceRebukes the strife within

In days of pain and anguishThe greatest help I knew

Was to hold that little crucifixUntil I calmer grew

And looking on that FigureWhich hung in patience Jhere

I saw the dreadful toitureWhich He In love did bear

His feet are nailed togetherHis loving arms outspread

And blood is dropping slowlyDown from His thorncrowned head

And how could I then murmurOr bitterly complain

When love for me induced HimTo undergo such pain

So when the time approachesThat I will have to die

I hope that little crucifixWill close beside me He

That the Holy Name of JesusMay be the last I say

And kissing that dear crucifixMy soul may pass away
