I will state that I consider miii the founding of a Catholic racer in Salt Lake not the j . 1 io least of the many blessings bestowed by Providence r hssu on the Church here during the past two years. Its 1. state birth occurred at an opportune time. Its zeal in prop- 'iKiiiff egating Catholic truth has had, since its inception, that : rny hearty though silent approval. I believe with . that Our Holy father that "a good Catholic journal is a icut t perpetual mission in a parish." and that it will serve )at as a question box, at ell times, for anxious inquirers. the v In my visitations I shall hope to find The Intermoun- ' spring tain Catholic in the home ot every Catholic family. . said ts mission is to espouse truth, justice and morality, .v be ar,d a11 devoted priests will find it an able co-6pera- u' cat tor in their missionary work. It is my wish that all of j.ii my Priests and the laity entrusted to my charg? la,, d should encourage your noble effort and that of the lor Oh generous founder of The Intermountain Catholic. th? a Tours sincerely, L.
