EDITORIALS.

IT WAS A PLEASURE to see so many old stu­dents at the commencement exercises-There is noth­ing fike the sunshiny influence of friendly smiles to illu­mine a happy feast. Our every effort then is helped by mutual good feeling. Let us hope that this years gath­ering is only the beginning of more numerous and re­gular reunion in the future; such as will lead to strengthening the ties of friendship and to keep alive our affections for the old home.

OUR EXCHANGES have so far continued com­ing in with long reports of <;losing exercises. All the editors 'are in gay humor an:.l prcpariug to swing their hammocks for the next two months. The Journal'istic scribes of Bourbonnais Grove must also herein signify their future absence from the sanctum and bid all the brethern a hearty "Goodbye and happy vacation."

* * * IT WOULD BE VERY DESIRABLE that all who

can, shonl<l retum on the day appointed for the reopening

and that is Sept. 7. We would all begin together old and new leaving no time for tears of "blues" and thoughts far away. Let not the old students be shown the example by the new.

* * COLLEGE EDUCATION- is it a profitable invest­

ment? Some say no, and to prove their point bring for -, ward examples of men who have been eminently succes­

ful in their rEspective professions and who have never made a college course ... That there have been and still are some self-made men and that these are often most successful, because they are practical men such as the world needs them, we grant almost unrestrictedly. This self-training however, applies rather to men who have first, a certain liking or aptitude for this or that walk of life; who, secondly, have the natural energy to per­fect themselves by their own exertion withOllt the as­sistance of a system of studies; or, thirdly, to men whom perchance a fortuitous combination of -circum­stances forces so to bestir themselves th<tt they acquire in a short but profitable experience what others se~k in books for years. As a rule, however, for common cases there is nothing that will better draw out the latent fa­culties of the mind to their fullest perfection than a thorough college education. The graduate who has pro­fited by the many and wise lessons imparted him at college need not fear to launch his bark upon the rough se>t of life, for owing to constant drill he has acquired the adroitness which will enable him to reach exactly the harbor of his aim. To whom do we owe the wonder­ful progress of the sciences, all the inventions of which we so proudly boast? It is to the men of study, of deep research, of constant application. Of course we under­stnnu it does not require nn educated man to sell calico, whisky, to malcemoney; if a business man is educated so much the better for him. But as the spiqt, ,Jjveth not of bread alone, so . society liveth not of .. ,,pney alone. Science is tbe God-given aliment that ~:·,m;es society God-like. "The Modern product of wcalth 'and pseudo­educati<m is anythi11g but a credit to our country."

OUR BANNER

" lVfANY .AN EYE HAS DANCED TO SEE

THAT .BANNER IN Tim SKY."

A ban nor ! ·w hat a potency i t is every wl.J I\re and at all t imes! l:i'rom the gay red-white-and-blue that. grace­fu lly waves in heaven's gentl E> breeze to the anarchists " red rag" t!ta t sways the mob on the street corner, a flag is a power, a veritable power, eontrol~ing mnnkind's most v;~rie<l feelings, exciting men to the highest pitch of enthnsi:lsm tor the cause it r epresents ; it is the sig­na l that calls for heroism's proudest deed8.

For each nation her bmmer represents her powm·, her laws, her langnage; it is the emblem of her glory .. as w ell as the symbol of her strength. This sign so full of meaning for the patriot is dear to him ever and alwnys . Bnt there ttrc times when it is more particularly signi­ficant an!l surpassingly dear and capnble of nerving bim up for the most g lorions achi evemen ts of heroism; such for instn.nce are the times of war.

Imagine the mag ic effect of his nation' s colors upon the soltlicr when at some terrible, ·decisive .:.1oment his general points to the fiag unsullied y et by defeat. The sight of his banner as well as the word s of his comman­der wUl raise him to such a. pitch of p!ttriotic enthnsL asm that be cun searcely, await t he signal for the onset.

At t he given word he rushes wildly and, fearless of danger, intent only upon guarding h1s hrcnner and win­ning for it the proud ltonors of triumph .... But see his !lag now! . . . It waivers, disappenrs almost t'ompletely from his gaze ! Only now and then the now desperate warrior catches a glimpse of his dear ensign throngh a thick mist of, cannon smoke and wllizzing missiles. Dauntless he dashes along clearin.g every obstacle, for now he sees his standard seized by the sa,cti ligious hands of the enemy. He break;; through the almost in­Silpcrab le barriers that at every step check.his approach , m ows down the hostile host' that sav:tgely presses upon its prey, the banner. The ~rne soldier, though, by dint of con rage arrives wi tbin g rasping d ist::mce of his na­tion's fln.g. Another spr ing ariel he has se ized it from tb c unhall owed grip o f the enemy l Happy indeetl wotl!l he be to sht·oud his remains within the sacred shadow of hi r:: rcscuefl. br-mner! ... With this in one hand howeve r, an c1 his weapon in t he other he rushes from [l.n10ngst the sla.in. Again his comrad es are rallied and the d r,y is wo11 ! .. . That night the victorious banner flont s bigl1 o v er the cxnlting camp. ·

It is i11tcr esting to li sten to our veterans recounting tlte hardy scenes of war they saw, how much they dar­ed to m ve t.he stars nnd stripes, and wh:).t eause for j oy,

• ''; 1' For 't'Hr-'now Qappily at peace, especially for us boys who hav.e never heard the war cam:rons roar nor even seen a ·sham fight, the flag has only a festi v.e significan­ce;. it reminds· of 4th. o{ July and Decoration Day and 'l'hfiriksgiving Q.nd bther great national fes tivities. We bowever l'ack no lbve for that banner whose o-lori.ous • • . b

. bi·story ~e liil.\re aJieady graven in our young minds. Already . we have learned to cherish it as if we our­' selves had fought and ~weated and bled in its defence. Thus evei-y recurring festival that sports the red-white and-blue reminds us of past hard-fought combats, of glories . won, of independence g<tinecl, of a happy re­union affected. We read in its foldings as they play­fully rip)Jle in the free azure above, the whole history bf.'our nation. As we Amerieans glory in ow· colors so ... . every natiOn exults in her own; every banner has a -certain power of attraction, and accordi.ng as it merits

, it, obtains the admiration and esteem of its followers. Here, whioh we ca~ rightly 'call •at horne, we see

throughout the length and breath of our free land the s:tm;e banner representing all classes, all nationalities molten into our gr!lind Union, our incomparable Repub­lic! May the day never dawn when our stars shall wane and other sigas rise instead to lead on Uncle Sam! A!Jr~ad the banner is a token o£ our youthful life ; -it teUs how we a,re waxing strong and going ahead! It tells ofour cus.toms, our institutions, our laws; in a word it bespea.ks the nation.

·For the traveller who se.eks novel sights in tht strmwe · . b

old lands of worlds gone by, there is, they say, nothing better ~lculated to utterly delight him than tlle unex­pected sight of his banner. Perhaps 'twill be at a random ·. 'walk along the far lone beach; or again ' ttnay be he will descry it amid the thousands that flutter from the topmost mast of a crowded harbor. Wherever it be and wheneve~; his heart wifl leap for j oy when he sees his na.tional colors. The American, tor insW.nce, will read a story on every stripe and the stars knowingly twinkle 1

bright memories of the far beyond. At once he is trans­ported among his own, his coun.try -men; he speaks free­ly his own tongue, as he -meets friend after friend. These recollections are in themselves an ecstacy of purest de­light : . .. May we live to try that as we have minor pleasures of ·the _flag, as seeing it on a festal Clike, cir­cus horses, 4th of July trains and the hobby-horse.

pondent to the J ou.rnal for the coming year. - The ending of this year was presaged Ly the

happy event of the ordinations, which took place at tbe beginning aed towards the middle of J nne. Rev. .J. Shannon, Rev. J. Gibbons, Rev. J . Dunnion and Rev. A. Labrie were ordained priests in Chicago by the Rt. Rev. Archbishop F eehan. Rev. J. Soum i ~ was ordain­ed at the same time at St. Paul, Minnesota by Rt. Rev. Bishop Ireland.

. deaconship in Chicago: Messrs. J. Barl'y. J . Dmn , W. Hogan, A. McGavick, T. McGrady, M. MetcLer. C. Mugan. Mr. E . Therrien received minor orders. May heaven bless their offering, and be the manifold fruits of a zealous ministry; their passpor t to the eternal years.

- The annual picnic of the societies came off as usual to gladden us with ice cream and lemonade, toast and strawberries, the Minnie Lillie ride. the dandy baud etc. May it be ever so.

- Some of our base-ballists play ed a cou ple of games in Chicago agair.st the Ignatius boys. The first game was 5 to 3 in favor of Chicago. Mr. Sulli van was not there and the boys had all they could do to keep the score down. But fhp, second game Mr. Sulli van -was there and ! to the sr.venth inning score was 0 to 0. Through a poor play on the third by McM. itt the eighth inning the Chicago boys got 3 runs, and 3 more on other errors. Our boys then scored up 1 and so stood the contest!. five in favor of Cllicago. We won 't blame it on the grounds, the umpire or auything else. Boys you are to play them again, we under-;tand, beat them the next time, and if you don't in .Chicago, in- · v ite them to Bourbonnais Grove.

>" ,It would not be just for us to pass this progrnm by + .. witbont giving our impressions on the character of its

. execution. The collegt band and orchestra, under the able guidance of Prof. Therrien, would do credit to al. moet any ~vatory of mu!iic and quite a. number of its membe:rs displayed an uncommon talent in this art. The violin solo by Eddie O'Connor, of Indiana, WM

quite remarkable. The tones of his violin were clear an~ sweet and .his soul !ieemed to be in his instrument. We cannot speak too highly uf the piano and violin aooompaDoiment executed by Mose R"y and A. Granger as pianists and G. Martineau violinist. These three young men seemed to have been touched by the magic wand vi the fair goddess of the lyre.

John .Dore of Boston, Mass., in his greetings to the friends ntl parents or the students and to the stranger!' . who were present, bad all the dignity of an orator in his anpearance on the stage. His voice is clear and firm, articulation poeitive and distinct, and his wards were well oho en for the occaaion .. Judging from this rtfort we woulrl think him a promi ing candidat.e for the high· er places of the stage forum.

C. Harbour, in his french declamation, L'Epave, show­ed much native power and consiilemble dramatic force, and d(ileS not seem to be embarrased by his ' tender years. We nl\tutally ask ourselves in this ' case, as in tJ111t of Dennis Ricou, the little orator from Louisiana, who followed with a selection from Byron , what will these boys be able to do when they eome to maturity if in their boyhood they can 8pcak anri declaim with such grace and naturalness.

Philip Lesage, of Bourbonnais, gave a well prepared dissertation on revolutionistli and the grounds for the same philosophically treated. Mr. Lcsngc shows himself a better writer than speaker, although he has promise 1\8. a speaker.

Glenn Park, ofTroy, Ala., a graduate of the com­mercial department, pronounced the valedictory with much feeling and grace. His farewells to the scenes of college life and the anticipations offuture were deliver­ed with spirit and n tendeme..«S that showed the senti ­ments were from the soul and not at all unreal to tuc st•tdents of d. Viateur's.

Degrees were conferred on the followmg gentlemen , iwbo b:lve gone out from their alma ?"fUller into the wide,

After the distribution of prizes Father Marsile calletl upon Father Bollman, an alumnus of St. Viateur's, who, with a few brief yet eloquent remarks, spoke in sub­stance as follows :

Alumni of St. Viatew·'s, R ev. Clergy andfriends:-I must acknowledge that it is an impertinent thing on my part when there arc fhthers here older than myself to address :rou. aJHl were it not for the kindness and urgent request. of that good and poetic man, Father Marsile, J would not accept the invitation.

We sec from the work of this and other colleges, that education is good and is the polishing of a man that he may go out \nto the world and be of service to man· kind. Education of the intellect is not true education, it must be joined with the heart to make it worthy or praise and the struggl<>s of a long pursuit therefore. In Joliet they arc educated. It is said well cduc!l.ted rascals but with them tl1e heart has been neglected, and only the intellect educated. There nrc men who gather sue­cess from richns and spoils :md plunder. Man is a social being anti is usually hound to help make society better and happier aml more prosperous. Education then ot the. heart and mind should go hand in hand.

The boys ~~ho have not received premiums this y ear will t ry again and know how to improve for another Contest. If all students received preri1iums there would be no honor in the prize. It is enough if a stt1dent can sny I have done my duty. Tllis will give him a happy vacation. If t he parents are not careful "home rule" will be an established fiwt in many fam ilies where the boy s have become masters over a! l. Learn to love and respect your parents and he happy.

Father Marsile then proclaimefl vacation, announcing that the college would open again September 7, which closed ti.J.e ' ~6 commemcernent exercises.

REVOLUTION.

DISCOURSE DELIVERED BY MR. PHILIP LESAGE OF THE

GR ADUATING CLASS OF 86. .

Ladies and Gentlemen:­• The explosion of an Anarchist bomb in Chicago, has

had on the American people the effect. of a tremendous thunderclap, bursting unexpectedly in the midst of a peaceful crowd engrossed by the spectacle ot a strange but apparently undangerous pbenomm\0n. The simul­taneous strike of many thousand workmel). had, for several months stopped all traffic on the railroad lines of the i:loutbwest and paralized all business. That event to which in the old ·world would ha ve been attributed all the importance of a revolutionary act, seemed to us who fully trust the wisdo'rn and force of our pol itica l institutions, a mere incident which could be easily overcome by the efficacity of our unl imited liberty and the practical good sense of the nation. ·Bu t it was at that very moment that, from behind the red fl ag of the cosmopolite Anarcldfm wns thrown the murderous bomb which spreading death and. terror in the great metropolis of the West, awoke every one of us to a danger quite unsuspected . However, we must ,acknowl­e<lgc it, after recovering themselves from their surpri~e tlw m~jority of the veo~)] e, J?rom~ to fi.nd oqt that the

great number of dyn~miters were of foreign importa­tion, and that the immense major.:ity of'the strikers had answered to the explosion .o;f indignation of the peop'le by repudiating all connection ai).d. s,Ym·pathif- with the Anarchists, soon reassamed their assu.!ance. •rBut for serious men, the fact of the possibility Of the ·organiza­tion and of a beginljli.ng of execution of the anarchist plot, in such circumstances, was quite a revelation. Should not the great and complex· problem of labor and capital, monopolism and liberty, exposed ;o us by the general strike and whose solution seems so difficult, open the way to the tempting but deceivi:Jig theories of communism and socialism? Are not those anarchist principles themselves the logically ne.eessary conse­quenpe of the modern principles which seem to Btevail everywhere? In a word have· we not t0 fo0k for the sources of these social difficulties i.n the revolutionary ~

principles which every where . are substituted t~ the eternal principles of the divine Jaw ?-1 have said the word : Revolutionary principles, l{ev:olutioB;-there is the source of the evil. Let us suppress it, anli we shall suppress at the same time what is called the .sociai question .

What .then is Revolution, and what connection exists between it and the present state of society? This is the question which I will try to answer by the ap.pHcation of the ethic principles which have been the object of our studies, in the class of philosophy, during the last .

• f

sesswn. <i.

Revolution is not a fact, it is an idea. ~evolution is not revolt against the legitimate ruler of society; that is a fact whose proper name is disobedience ; revolution ·~

is the principle intended to justify, to legitimate that fact. It is the negation of the eternal principles oh which society is based. ·

Society is essential to map who is essentially a social being. But if it is essential to man; it must neeessarily be a means for leading him to his immediate end which is progress towards moral as well as intdle.ctual and ma­terial perfection. Moral progress means pr.Qgress towards what is good and right and the withdrawal from what is ev il or wrong; but that only is good which agrees with the law of nature; that evil or wrong, which disa­grees with it. This eternal law, engraved in the heart of every reasonable being, prescribes that we should fear and serve God, ti.J.at we should treat others as \ve would like to be treated ourselves and consequently that we should respect theit; rights as we would like to have ours respected. Rights suppose correlative duties, and as the end of society cannot be but the good of its members, upon it devolves the obligation of protecting all rights and consequently of enforcing all duties. MoJal progress lies then in the wise !lind legitimate use of rights and iu tbe fulf\lmeut of duties. The end of man

~T. VIATEUR':::l COLLMi-J.; <JOURNAL. r' ' ~' I I

is not only moral progress, it is also intellectual pro­gress which is progress towards truth and consequently witbtlrawal from error, for truth is the light of the mind a:; error is its darkness, and as light and dorknc;;;s can­not exist at the same time in the saruo place, so truth and error cannot live together in the hum:m intclle-::t. Whence for society t he duty of protecting truth agaim;t en·or. If man !-telungs to the spiritual world by the no­hle.st part of his person-his soul,- he belongs to the material world by his body; whenc•3 it is that be must progress also materially; but llS om body hils to be submitted to our rea~·-mable in tellect, ~o must material progre~s serve moral aml int-ellectual progress; tl!erefure it is the duty of society to protect material progrrss in as much as it serves moral and intellectual progress.

Such then are the principles which have presided a.t the primitive natural constitution of society nncl which in, the course of time have been developed by Christi:tn civilization. But what has become of them, in the laws which now-a-days preside over the political govern­ment of modern societies? l\len try to substitute to

.them, a code of right exclusive of duties, :1. code v;hich they pretend to condense in this ~nblimc formula: " L iberty, Equality, Ftatemity. This fonnula itst>lf is in­deed true ; neither is it of late invention. The child of Bethlehem developed it throngh his ml,rtnllife and scalrd it with his blood on ~fount Calvary. What is new(md als.o false is the interpretation ginn to it ill our modern societ\es. They ascrihc to Liberty-that word fall~u

from heaven to signify a qnnsi-clivine prerogative of

mA.n, which prcsupp•. •ses an intelligent reaS<'n-thc souse of thnt material independence which nllow;:~ the brute to satisfy it~ bestial instincts. Liberty, g1:1ntlemen, is some­thing holy and gr:1n<l, soml":lthing whic·h cannot have any connection with evil. Liberty is e~sentially good; and to define it: "the right or Joing everything evil us well as good, ''is a profhnntion of that noble word.. Th:>.t in­cleed is not. Iibert.}·, it i~ lic<mse, the greate~t P-IH3rny of

~tituti(lllj in a word frer,lom l'n• l prnte<.!ti<Jll nf alJ private natnrnl rights g"n.ntecl hy the Creator .~o every

reasonable being. I say freedom and protection because protection cannot be separated from liberty. Liberty without protection would be a mere tleception and would mean the ensla>i!lg of the weak by the strong. Such liberty then, as we b:we just described, is the only real liberty because it is b:1sed on the eterH::tl principles of nntuml right. Do onr modern politician~ and economist., understand liberty in that sense? For them liberty is the unlimited fret>tlrllll of action and speech within the limits of the written poli tical law inespectivcly of all primordi:ll rights and duties. Is that liberty? No it is licens<', it is revolution. True liberty, individual as well as natioml, is limited by the primordial rights of God and of our fellow-men, in a word hy the necessities of the common good. Whence it follO\YS that freedom of nction :mel speech, which would disturb private tranqui­lity aJl(l puhlic peace, is no liberty at all but rcvolution­a.ry license, because peace and tranquility are primor­dial rights of society :ma of its members and these pri­mordial rights l~re the limits of political liberty . Whence again to mohopolize, unde1~ the pretext of freedom, with the tacit approb:ltiou of the political authori ty, public sen-ices, such :ts public transport..'l.tion , is no liberty but revoluti011ary license bcc:tnse it is the ensl:wing of the public to the rapacious caprices of a few. 'Vhencc again to usc i ntimidation, violence, to oblige an employer who p:1ys well, to raise the saLny of the employee, who i>' forced to work or not to work fur that employer, is no freedom ot work hnt violntion o£ the right of the em­ployer who bas the same ri ght as the laborer to protect his interests. This again, I say, is no liberty but revolu­tionary license. N"ow, Gentl:'.ffi"n, I a~k, lmve we to wonder at the anarchists, who druwing vn extrC'me but logi~ul couelnsioa frm~ t bat false lmt enmmon notion of liberty, prfJchim :)l tblicly th~ tcvery bw limiting frceriom of action !'.Dd speech is u nj ust , nud that comequent­ly all h.w3 protective of public anc1 privnto rights n.re iniqnitons and mn:' t be st:ppre5sed by all mca:1s, CYeu througt< ·dole;1ce?

the principle,.., of Chrbtiall civiliz:tt.iun. But there arc lights, eitbcr :•cquired by personal merit or inbcritc11 from pn.rcnts who hold from 1mturc the right of t rans­mitting them to their ot!~pri ng. ]t is cle:u tha.t these are 110t and caunot be equal in all men, otherwh;e we should say that e,·il has the same right as go6d or that be who merits :t grc:tt deal has no more rights than lw wl10 mcrits l!ut little, a thing· which is evidently ab­surd. Siuce there is neccssnrily inequality of rights it follows tlwt absolute tqnality woul<l be unjust, be­cm:JSc it would involve the violation of legttimate rights. No, Gentlemen, true an<l rightful politicftl equality cannot be a social leveling by the violent suppression of lcgitimtttcly acquired rights; but iL only secures to citizens equality of rights in equality ot'mcrits . Whence politic equality eaunot suppress either natural or acquir­ed sup·.·.\l'iorities, because inequali ty of mental {acuities as well as of corporal gi£ts, is from nature and that ac_ qui red superiorities are the effvct of the free exertion of thcs'l naturnl,m<lowments.

I say equality of right~ ~n eqn~1lity of merits! And let ns understm1d that word merit in the greatest ex ­tent of its signification; that is, merit iu moral, in intel­lectual and in m<tterial acqu irements, namely: in virtue, in knowlec1ge and in r iches. These are personal properties which create private rigl..ts; and it is tlle acknowledge­ment and equal protection of them without tiny dis­tinction of birth or condition, that constitutes the only pos~iblc equ:~lity. EqL1ality of riguts in equality of merit, means private and social progres> t,ecau~e it stimulates a noble !Wd wund ambition; whilst utopian absolute eqna.lity, which means social equ:tliscJtion by tl1e suppression of superiorities, enco,1ragcs indolenci'!,

arouses cupidity and all evil p~tssions, a11d that is nothing cbe than revolution.

HI hn,d not already been trcsp:1ss ing too much on your kind (}ttention, I would tell you how the Revolu­tionist, miseutcrpreting the most dev ine of the natural preceptr;, have profhned the word fraternity to express that egotistic nm1 selfish fbeling which unites them in one common and irrecondlial!le hatred against all the opponents of their oub versi ve doctrines. Their latest expression of fraternity is dynamite, the most recent revolutionary progres::;. · .

Now Ladie,; and Gentlemen, I have accomplished. my task; Ilea ve to your patriotism to draw· conclusions. Bnt I may perhaps be allowc<~ to exhort my fellow studeJJts by saying to them: "Let us beware of revol n­tiomry doctrines, and all political tl;leory opposed to the eternal principle of natural right, are revolutionary. If the .American constitution stands as the wisest of ·mo­dern poiiticn.l institutions, it is because its founders based it on the eternal principle of natural right; if American

1 liberty is the force of that constitution i t is because that li berty is in the thought of its author nothing but the sec Llri ty to citizens for the full exercise of their . respective rights. But at the present d!l,y, revolution seems to invade tuc country . It ouliterates the true notion of liberty. There is the danger. Let us then be on onr guard. Let ns love our count ry, let us lovf' its institutions, so that, our minds being enlightened !Jy a rer.l patriotism, we may not f>~il to cast aside all tl1c empty dcclamntions of modern politieiaiJS and seck for truth in the wise teachings of a sound c;hrist.ian philoso­phy.
