Editor Intermountain Catholic: Allow- me to congratulate the management man-agement of your paper upon the manner man-ner in which you have so far kept the promises which , you made in the announcement an-nouncement of the -consolidation of The Colorado Catholic with The Intermountain Inter-mountain Catholic. It seems to me that your paper is calculated ,to bring about a closer union of Catholics in the intermountain country than could be possible from any other source. Your journal bears evidence in its columns of being what it purports to be. the organ of the intermountain Catholics in the intermountain states, and not the organ of a single diocese. This, in my judgment, is as it should be. Please find enclosed a renewal of my subscription for two years in advance. ad-vance. Sincerely, SACERDOS. The above is from an esteemed subscriber sub-scriber in Montana, and we beg to assure him of our kindly appreciation of his generous words. A closer union of Catholics in Montana, Mon-tana, Idaho. Utah, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico is what The Intermountain Inter-mountain Catholic seeks to accomplish. The local news from all these states will, we are satisfied, serve' to bring the readers of The Intermountain Catholic Cath-olic to a closer knowledge of Catholic life in all parts of the intermountain country than they have found'possfble hitberto. - - . The different Catholic societies, such as the Ancient Order of : Hibernians, Catholic Knights, the Knights of St. John, and kindred organizations, will find in the columns of The Intermountain Intermoun-tain Catholic a knowledge of the work of these organizations in their respective respec-tive communities. We are satisfied that the view which our clerical friend from Montana takes of this particular mission of The Intermountain Catholic will find fulfillment. |
