Kept By Catholics Bat Not By
Oraagemes.
(By K. C. W. C. News Service.)
Dublin. August 31.—Since the
truce was declared there has been
tcniplete peace in the south and
west and in the Catholic parts of
the north of Ireland. There have
been violations of the truce, but.
they have been all committed by
Orangemen. Using bombs and rifles,
they have once more attacked Cath*
die quarters in Belfast.
Incitements are frequently ad-
dressed to the mobs by those who
profess to speak as leaders, includ-
ing Protestant clergymen. At meet-
ings held to celebrate the “Relief
of Derry” a resolution was passed
demanding the immediate release of
six spec Sal constables and three civi-
lians in custody on a charge of
murder. Furious attacks were made
on the Irish Hierarchy and the Cath-
olic Church. Hopes were expressed
that the Anglo-Irish peace negotia-
tions would break down, and that
the British Government would, by
force, reconquer Catholic Ireland.
The Orange attitude is the outstand-
ing obstacle to peace. Although no
agreement between the British Cab-
inet and Dai! Eireanu has yet
been reached it is Che Arm belief
of those closely in touch with affairs
that the present negr-iattons will
result iu a permanent settlement.

Aiding Agriculture In Ireland.
The Salesian Agricultural College
established In Limerick County a
year ago has been a greet success.
Before coming to Ireland the super-

Italy and made a . thorough study
of the Italian systems of agriculture. ‘
They also made similar studies in

. at tbs- same time jjirtisides owr a upon a chain, ell ng ail orders? hon-
: province composed of:; dioceses the ors, dignities and trusts. Within hiB
i Bishops of which are called s.uffra- diocese he rules by divine law. All
i gans or provincials.:: Formerly the other officials, except the Pope, rale
i metropolitan’s authority was much i>y human law. The Bishop, like
i greater than it is At present. It the Pope, receives his authority as
: »nn, *„ . flHj apostles dfd:—hot directly. It is
true, but through the Supreme Pon-
*'T—from Christ Himself. In sub-
mission to the Holy See, and within
lews of the Church and by the de-
crees of council, he prescribes rules
to promote God’s honor and the sal-
vation of souls, which the faithful,
clerical and lay, are bound to obey.
He possesses the plentitude of the
priesthood, standing on the same
sacramental plane as the Archbish-
op, Cardinal or Pope: and because
of this, he is able to make others
priests and Bishops, All the orders
are said to cluster around the
Eucharist (Lord’s Supper). The dea-
con assists the priest at Mass and
may administer Holy Communion to
the faithful, but he may ndt utter
the divine words of consecration by
which bread and wine are transub-
stantiated into the living body and
blood of the Saviour. The priest is
privileged to pronounce these words
end thus to affect the great miracle
of the real presence, but he eannot
impart this power to another.
The Bishop alone Is able to make
others priests and Bishops. Hence,
the perpetuity of the Church de-
pends upon the episcopacy. The
power to ordain is unique with the
Bishop. It is sometimes said that
there are only two things which a
Bishop can do and which a priest
cannot do, namely, ordain and con-
firm. There are many things—
blessings, dedications, consecrations,
and other like functions, reserved to
the Bishop, but there is really only
one thing done by Bishops which the
priests cannot be authorized to do;
for by special authoriration of the
Holy See. without having received
any additional sacramental rite, the
prieist can administer the Sacrament
of Confirmation. The Bishop is the
teacher and the guardian of divine
He Is the Citral Figure In the
Hierarchy of the Chsrch.
(By the Rev. J. L. Quinn.)
The officials of the Catholic
Church form a threefold hierarchy.
The first, which is of divine institu-
tion, consists of the Pope, as succes-
sor of St. Peter, Bishops, priests and
deacons. The lesser ministers of
the Church and sanctuary are deriv-
ed from the deaconate. The second
hierarchy is made up of the same of-
ficials, ranking, by ecclesiastical
right, according to the degrees of
steps in the sacrament of ordination.
They are the Bishops, with the su-
preme Pontiff at their head, priests
and deacons. The lesser ministers,
subdeacons, acolytes, exorcists, lec-
tors and porters, are Included, here,
although the rites by which they are
ordained are not sacramental. The
third hierarchy Is that of jurisdic-
tion. It has been established by ec-
clesiastical authority for administra-
tive and judicial purposes, its mem-
bers exercise ordinary and delegated
authority. Ordinary authority is
that which belongs to an official by
the very nature of his office. Bish-
ops are called "ordinaries" because
us the lawful successors of the Apos-
'? I SSTatAS'toft-
" union with the supreme pastor of ■
Christendom. The Pope and Bishops
are the essential or constituent mem-
bers of the hierarchy of jurisdiction.
The Pope, of course, is simply a
Bishop, but the first Bishop of Chris-
tendom. Christ constituted St. Peter
the chairman or president of the
Apostolic group, and made him His
v'car or representative, and the
Pope, as successor of St. Peter, oc-
cupies the same position towards
the successors of the other Apostles.
He is first in both honor and author-
ity. The title "patriarch," applied
to the heads of the 12 tribes of
Israel, was probably first used in the
Christian church as a title of honor
’ bi Theodosius 11 in addressing Pope
Leo I. For some time afterwards
the title was given by any venerable
Bishop or Archbishop.
Gradually, however. It became of-
ficial and was applied to three
Bishops only, namely, that of Rome,
of Alexandria, and of Antioch. In
the confusion of the breaking up of
’ the cast, schisms and crusades, pa-
triarchates—Catholic and Schismatic
—were multiplied. As a lawful offi-
cial of the Church a patriarch exer-
cises authority second only to that
’ of the Pope. He has the same rights
‘ over his metropolitans or Arch-
' — — y their silt-
' fragan Bishops- The Bishop of
■ Rome as Supreme Pontiff legislates
' for the whole Church, but as pa-
triarch for the western countries
' only. Many of the laws which we
■ observe are not of the Universal
1 Church, but at the western pa-
■ triarefaate.
‘ The office of primate In the west
’ and the corresponding office of ex-
■ arch in the east have only a nominal
: existence. These officials were sup-
■ posed to exercise authority over the -
i provinces of a nation or district.
■ They enjoyed privileges, rather than
• rights. They had no real authority
’ in law, but were allowed to preside
1 at national councils, to crown the
s sovereign, occasionally to hear np-
1 oealB from episcopal and me.rope 11-
‘ tan courts, and were granted prece-
i denee in clerical functions.

A metropolitan and ian- Archbishop tiff-
= are practically the same. The only mis .
= difference is that a metropolitan al- the limits prescribed" by the general
ways has suffragans whereas an
g Archbishop may not have.
3 Of the subordinates to the Rtr.hop
the archdeacon was in former times
the most important : official. His
authority was second only to that
of the Bishop. He had charge of
the temporal affairs, Supervised insti-
tutions, directed the work of the
deacons and to some extent that of
the priests, examined matrimonial
cases and conducted clerical trials.
He was not always .simply a dea-
con, but frequently ?a priest. His
office has never existed tn America
and is now practically extinct
throughout the world.As the arch-
deacon had charge ct the temporal
a if airs, so In the fourth century,
the archpriest was Introduced to as-
sist the Bishop in religious and lit-
urgical duties and to Superintend the
work of the priests.:; Later, when it
became necessary to provide for the
country people, mother churches
were erected in rural districts and
smaller churches or chapels in the
neighboring hamlets and manors.
The mother church was the parish
church in which all the people heard
Suday Mass; and In which were
performed ail baptisms, marriages
and funeral services. The pastor of
such a. church, although subject to
the archdeacon, was head of the lo-
cal clergy, supervised their ministry
and was called an archpriest, Later
still as parishes increased the dio-
ceses were districted and over each
district was placed an archpriest or
rural dean. St. Charles Borromeo
abolished the office of dean in his
diocese and established In its place
that of rural vicar or vicarforane. niiu luo 6_„.„
The two offices are now practically truth of Christian morality; there-
the same. Deans have no proper jur-
isdiction. They are appointed by
the Bishop and act simply as bls
delegates in fhh .performance of to children,
stated duties. They are not, how-
ever, mere title-bearers, but useful
officials who mayWd, as a rule, do
render great ASBfetance to their
Bishop. In the present system the
