Show ; ' OFFICIAL ENDORSEMENT. Editor Intermountaln Catholic: My Dear Sir:Keplying to your favor asking my approval of The lntermountala Catholic since its establishment in tr.U diocese, 1 will f?iate that I consider the founding of a Catholic paper in Sail Lax not the least of the many blsFinKS bestowed be-stowed by providence on the Church here during the past two years. Its birth occurred oc-curred at an opportune time. Its zeal, lu propagating Ca.iholic truth, has had, kZnte 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 tnat it will serve as a question box, at all ; times, for anxious inquirer. In my visitations visi-tations I shall hope to find The Inter. mountain Catholic in the homes of every ' Catholic family. Its mission is to es pouse (ruth. Justice and morality, and an devoted priests will find in it an able co- ( operator in their missionary work.. It is j my wish that all my priests and the laity ; entrusted to my charge should encourage ' your noble effort and that of the generous gen-erous founder of The Intermountain Catholic. Yours sincerely, L. SCANLAN, Bishop of Salt Lake. Salt Lake City, Oct. 2. 1900. |
