Doyle, W(illia)m T.:
Milwaukee, Wis(consin)
to (Henry F. Brownson):
(Detroit, Michigan)
Doyle will call on Brownson next Tuesday evening. The comment of the Ave Maria on the inconsistency of the controversy with President (Charles W.) Eliot is quite apt. Doyle encloses a clipping "Attack on Labor Unions" which shows that one man is not afraid to declare the danger in trade-unionism before the public. He likes ( ) Stephenson, whose error is the prevalent one nowadays; and he is not as deeply tinged with it as most of the popular writers. Catholic commentators on Mivart are chary of all mention of Newman and his ideas on Development. Doyle quotes from the official account describing (James Cardinal Gibbons at the Parliament of Religions.
