Show OFFICIAL ENDORSEMENT. Editor Intermountain Catholic: lly Dear Sir Replying to your faver asking my approval of The Intermountain Catholic since its establishment es-tablishment in this diocese. I will state that I consider the founding of a Catholic paper In Salt Lake not the least of the many blessings bestowed by Providence on the Church, here during the past two years. ' Its birth occurred at an opportune time. Its zeal In prop- gating Catholic truth has had, since its inception, my hearty though silent approval. I believe with Our Holy Father that "a good Catholic Journal is a perpetual mission in a parish," and that it will serve ns a question box, at all times, for anxious inquirers. In my visitations I shall hope to And The Intermountain Intermoun-tain Catholic in the home of every Catholic family. Its mission is to espouse truth, justice and morality, and all devoted priests will find it an able co-operator in their missionary work. It is my wish that all my priests and the laity entrusted to my charge should encourage your noble effort and that of the irenerous founder of The Intermountain Catholic Tours sincerely, L.
