f h' 16 THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15, 191V. HART Y WILL . CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY h ERE' ARCHBISHOP CAME TO OMAHA YEAR AGO AS HEAD OF CHURCH Rapidly Pushing Educational Interests and Raising Large Sum for Completion of New Cathedral to be Mas terpiece of Architecture; Great Work Ac complished in Philippine. Totiay marks the first anniver sary of Archbishop Harty's arrival in Omaha. Just a year ago he reached the Gate City, coming from the Philippine is lands, where he had for more than 12 years governed the see of Manila with its Catholic population of more than 1,500,000, . . His administration in the Philip pines fell in troubled times, due to the grave problems that resulted from the transfer of the islands from the sovereignty of Spain to that 6f the Itntted States. His labors in the phiiinninra. tint merely in matters . fU'Fl'""l T , At the last annual retreat in June 110 priests, who had already contributed much to the cathedral fund and who are by no means well-to-do men, sub scribed $70,000 in seven minutes. The laity in their turn have been equally generous. As the result of so great munificence, the towers, the erection of which had been deferred to a later date, will ioon complete and adorn the noble facade and be a titting mon ument to the civic pride of Omaha. These towers will cost $110,000. Their striking effect will make tlie great edifice worthy to be called The Pinnacled Cathedral of the Middle West.1" SffTHhS "hit concerned 'thei; Red CfOSS tO Open Public aSmiV ac,'vU,es' Shop in Downtown Section Gives Co-Operation Credit.

After that a waiting list will be established but just how long they would have to wait was notj stated. It is authentically stated at headquarters that Tut five men from Omaha units asked for discharges in time to enable them to enlist in the regular army. The guards arc still buoyed up with hope that "the every effort which is being made to have the Seventh regi ment recognized and drafted into fed eral service" will bear fruit and that within a short time the War de partment at Washington will obtain cognizance of the reat injustice that has been meted out to the "Unlucky Seventh" by rescinding certain orders and calling the regiment to the de fense of the colors. Answer Foolish Questions. The officers are cheerful and cpn fidtnt, and with an inexhaustible sup ply of patience they are calmly an swering foolish questions and advis ing the guards to "bide a wee." While it is clearly evident from their actions that the guards are dis couraged and disappointed, they are bearing it brave'y and with great for titude. 'Aw, what's t the use of being knockers?" suserted one guard. "We'll get a chance after while everybody knows that. Every cloud has a silver lining. !.ey tell me, and all we fel lows have to do is to turn th cloud inside out. Salvation Army Again Will Give Dinner to Worthy Poor The Salvation Army is busily pre narine for its Chtistmas dinner. As usual this organization will do its share in distributing the generou' bounty of the public of Omaha. Car tain J. A. Mace, officer in charge, I expects to give several hundred bas kets to the worthy poor. Every case will be carefully inves tigated and only the worthy poor will hp considered. The ooor chil dren also will be remembered. The investigators have found many pa thetic cases. Mrs. P. was left des titute by her husband with three small children. To provide for them she sold all her furniture, believing that would tide her over until, she could find sonic work, but her money gave out and she was without coal and food. The captain heard of the story and xitnnlied not onlv her needs in oro- viding food and fuel, but bought her some turniture and now tne woman is able to make a little for the chil dren. A South Side doctor reported a case where a woman, a widow, was dying, with several children on her hands. Baskets were sent to her at The need this year is just as great as ever and Captain Mace is sure tnat the public will help. 1 Omaha Shriners Donate $1,000 to "Y.

The Pretext for National Prohibition The plea for National Prohibition is made on the ground that the Prohibition States could not protect themselves against liquor shipments from "Wet" States. ,-.' This plausible reason no longer exists. The Webb Kenyon Law, together with the Reed Amendment (gen erally known as the, "Bone-Dry" Law), forbid any rail road or express company tol transpdrt liquor into States whose laws prphibit it, and make it a crime for anyone to bring liquor into any Prohibition State. i... If a State wants to be "Bone-Dry," it can become so by adopting State Prohibition, with the assurance that the Federal Government will see to it that no liquor is shipped in. - . ' The amended Webb-Kenyon Law was passed in rec ognition of the right of each State to adopt its own policy , on liquor legislation free from outside interference. For the same reason those States which do not want Prohibi tion must have the same right of protection for their policy FREE FROM OUTSIDE INTERFERENCE. - It would be most unfair to coerce by Prohibition those States that long ago discovered Prohibition to be a fallacy and a failure.
