Mr. Kllis spoke very highly of the little inland town and was cer tainly surprised as were the balance of too party. Our resources were of the best he stated and it was to be hoped that the people of his county and those of Lake would get better acquainted, as that was the object of the visit of the Rend Commercial Club. Several of the party made a few remarks as did several business men of the city. The meeting did not break up until about 11 o'clock as all were getting acquainted with each other. The whole trend of the meeting was one that showed good spirit and to work for one common good -the build ing up of this part of the state as that would insure the building of railroads while the matter of good roads was prominent in all their talk. The visi- tors were loud in their praise of the ' treatment they received at the hands of the Lakeview citizens and they also sMike very highly of the band boys and of their music, which was rendered in front of the Hotel and also at the Court House. Sunday morning tho visitors were loaded in several of the automobiles belonging to Lakeview business men anil were taken through the Cootie Lake Valley as far as New Pine Creek on the State line.

CORNER STQj LAYING UNDER IDEAL WEATHER CONDI. TIONS BEFORE CROWDS JUDGE B. DALY'S ADDRESS GIVEN IN FULL t Very Impressive Ceremony Conducted by Rev. Father O'Malley, S. J., Assisted by Frank Schmidt On Sunday afternoon last the cere mony of laying the corner stone to the new Cathoilc church was performed by Father O'Malley, the present pastor in the presence of a large number of interested spectators. The services were all conducted in Latin, response being made by Frank Schmidt, assisted by. Messrs. O'Shea, Hutchin and Pangree. After the corner stone had been placed in position Honorable B Daly who needs no introduction here acted a speech maker of the day, and deliv ered the following remarks: Rev. Father O'Malley, Ladies and Gentlemen : This comer stone which will form part of the foundation of a magnificent and beautiful Catholic Church, will mark an important epoch, not only in the religious and spiritual life of this community, but also in the material progress and development of Lake County, for the reason that member f the Catholic, faith seldom become residents and home builders of a county where there is no Church of their own creed in which to worship. - The manner in which the rnoney has been secured to build this church is very complimentary to the people of Lakeview, because many of those who have subscribed liberally are not mem bers of the Church and some of them are active members or other churches of the county. This generous spirit demonstrates the fact that the people of this community are possessed with that broad, liberal spirit of tollerance. .il . . , . - and believe in tne right of every per- ' enn ti tL'.ircliin I..V-I nijimlinr ti Ihu w vjuv. .. v ...... ..p, .v dictates of his own conscience.

A few weeks ago there was held in Baltimore one of the mt noted gath erings that probably ever assembled in this country. Among those that were present on that occasion were Presi dent Taft, Vice-President Sherman. Speaker Clark of the United State Senate. Ex-President Roosevelt, and many other distinguished statesmen of thi and other countries. These men met to celebrate the fifteenth adver sary of the entry of Cardinal Gibbins to the priesthood, and the twenty-fifth anniversary of his selection as a Car dinal. Cardinal Gibbins is respected and honored by all creeds an I classes of men. because he is rot only a devout follower of Jesus Christ, but hs is also a thorough American, and teaches his people to be patriotic and to love the stars and stripes because they float over the greatest and grandest Nation that has ever existed in all the history of the world ; a Nation that in its or ganic law proclaims the principal "That all men are created equal that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights ; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit, of haDpiness,.'
