OMAHA , Oct. 1. To the Editor of The
Bee ; During the last six year * state con
ventions of the Nebraska democracy as well
as Douglas county conventions ot the same
party havn unanimously and emphatically
declared against dragging religion Into
politics and making ctccd a test for office.
Are these declarations to be nullflcd now and
democrats who mantaln them Insulted as
the price of fusion ?
The question will bo determined by the
democratic convention of Douglas county.
< A determined effort Is being made to sacrifice
, everything for fusion. The machlno cares
1 not for principles , and will not scruple at
; any minus which might assist Its members
to office. It behooves democrats who prefer
I principles to office to watch carefully the
I machine schemes. It will not do to permit
! a committee or a caucus to dictate nomlna-
1 tlons , or grant that power to any fraction
> of Its members. It should Insist , In event
> of fusion , that candidates ot other parties
j submitted for endorsement should not only
bo competent nnd reputable , but also per
sonally acceptable to the democracy. To
! uccept an odious republican who has been
I kicked out of his party , who has no other
I recommendation than the graveyard knell
! of hungry bigots , Is to consign the ticket to
| disastrous defeat.
H Is the duty of democrats to leave Red-
i field to the tender mercies of the party that
raised him from obscurity to office. The fact
i that he has bitten the hand that nourished
him and snarls at his political creators Is no
reason why a democratic convention should
deliberately Invite an attack of hydrophobia.

NEW YORK. Oil. ' 1 , The New York Freo-
man's Journal tomo-itm' will publish a trans
lation of Ptpo Leo Kill's most recent ency
clical , of which the Mowing Is nn abstract :
"To our vcnerahlc brothers and patriarchs ,
primate , bishops , archbishops and other ordl-
narles In peace ami communion with the
apostolic see : Venerable brothers , health ana
apostolic benediction.
"How Important It Is for both public and
private Interests that devotion to the moat
august Virgin Mary should bo maintained
atslduoiwly and thread with zeal will be
understood by ocrybody who reflects on the
eminent position of honor and glory In which
God has placed Mary. Fiom all eternity ho
chose her to become mother of the Word who
was to clothe Himself In human llcsh.
"On the approach of the month of October
wo were unwilling , venerable brothers , to
fall to write to yon again this year ; with
our utmost ardor we exhort each one of you
anew to merit grace for yourselves anil for
the church militant by the recital of the
rosary. This species of prayer accma In the
providence of God to have taken on a mar
velous growth at the end of this century
In order that by Its means the flagging piety
of the faithful might bo stimulated , ns wlt-
ncs sthoje temples , these noted and ro-
nouned shrines consecrated to the service
of the Mother of God.
"In the month of May we offered flowers to
this divine mother and now we would that
October , the month of fruits , bo employed
by all who honor her with a special devo
tion.
CONSnCIlATED CLUBS.
"Catholics are wont to establish under mul-
tltudo of forms those salutary societies of
which wo weak , such as cluU , rural bands ,
gathering ; held on feast days for the recrea
tion of the mind , patronages for youth , con
fraternities and many other unions founded
for excellent ends.
"In the course of time they were confirmed
by law , distinguished by Insignia , endowed
with privileges , devoted to service In the
church consecrated to the wants of soul and
body. They received different names and
different epochs.
"Amid three grouplnRs we have no hesita
tion In assigning the place of honor to the
confraternity known as that of the Most High
Hosary , for considering Its origin It Is dis
tinguished above all similar Institutions by
antiquity , since It has hod for Its founder
Domlnlck himself. The soul of this Institu
tion Is the rosary of Mary.
"Tho power and efficacy of this same
rosary , regarded as an obligation Imposed on
the members of the confraternity to which
It has given Its nameIs , made especially
prominent.
"By the example'of our predecessors wo
too , veneral brotliers"fervcntly exhort and
encourage , * s wo have often before done , to
cherish with especial solicitude , In such wise
that It nifty , -thanks to your efforts , ce A
dJlly Increase of effective membership en
rolled under Its standard- that by your con
currence nd that at those of the clergy under
your charge to whom the care of couls Is
chiefly entrusted , the mass of the people may
arrive at a true know ledge and appreciation
of the virtues of this association and of Its
utility for the eternal salvation of nun. We
urge this the more earnestly since , within
qulto recent times , there has been a re-
bloscomtng of one of those forms of devo
tion to the mother ot God In the rosary the
'perpetual rosary , ' \Vc heartily bless this In
stitution and earnestly desire you to consc-
crate your sonl and activity to Its Increase.
"Wo entertain n most lively hope that the
praises and prayers of the rosary will prove
most powerful when , lisulng from the lips
and hearts ot a grc.it multitude , they go on
unceasingly , and when day and night nllcr-
nato In the different regions ot the globe
the continuous concert of prnjcrful voices
rises In harmony with meditation on divine
things ,
"And now , ns a pledge of heavenly favor
and In testimony of our paternal love , we
grant the apostolic benediction moot af
fectionately on the Lord to yourselves , ven
erable brothers , to your clergy nml to all the
people confli1c.i1 to your faith and vigilance. "

In speaking sbout the Injunction which
ox-Maynr Kd Johnston secured to prevent
the city from payfc the Plvonka claim for
rent , onii prominent city official s.itd yester
day that Johnston was Interfering with mat
ters which dlil not concern him. Up to HIP
present time thla claim has not been pre
sented to the city council , except In an In
formal way , and there Is no Intention , It Is
claimed , of paying It. The matter came uj >
some time ago In a letter from Plvonka In
which a demand was made for the rent which
tie alleges 4s due , and the communlratlnn was
referred to the committee rti public buildIng -
Ing * . It Is still In the hands of the com
mittee , no report or recommendation hav
ing as > et been made. Chairman Schuttz of
the nuance committee said that the city had
no money with which to pay the clulm , oven
It It was desired , Ho figured that Johnston
had procured the tnjunctlrri for political ef
fect alone am ) not because lie feared that
Plvonka would get the money. Other city
officials talked In the * amc way , all de
claring that the council had no Intention 01 !
paying the claim at this time.
Poveral taxpayers took occasion to icmark
In this connection that whllo Johnston was
In the Injunction business he ought to enJoin -
Join the council from pa ) Ing the Drlscall
claim. This claim was woiked up while
Johnston was mayor m1 according to docu
ments now on nie In the district court wns
the biggest kind ot n fraud.

The Ullcn Tlmony personal Injury claim has
bsbbcd up again , this time with an offer to
settle for $160. Mrs. Tlmony fell on the side
walk on N street last winter and broke her
knee cap. At the time of the Injury the
woman stitcd to Mayor Hnsor and others that
she did not blame the city. A little later nn
attorney Induced her to sign papers and a
claim for $5,000 damages wra Hied. This
< MHU to naught , ns suit was never com
menced. Mrs. Tlmony went to her homo at
Platte Center where another attorney got hold
of her and notified the city authuiltles that
he was about to commence suit for $ ! ! , BOO. A
few dajs ago Mrs. Tlmony was In the city
and called at Mayor Cnsor's office. She ap
peared to think that she ought to have some
thing from the city and agiced that If she
received $ lliO , which would more than pay
her doctor 1/111. she would be satisfied. With
thla understanding the mayor favors a settle
ment , as he considers It much cheaper to
( .ottle at the figures mentioned than to stmid
suit and perhaps gct.bcalmi. The matter
Is now bclnc investigated nnd a uettlcmcnt
will most likely bo arranged.
