THE BISHOP OF ILLINOIS.

LET Us PUT TILE DIOCESE ~ CoAAAsstoS.
Editors of tie Diocese Many Of your reAders think
you right the leading editorial OF your INST issue
Tho Diocese is not in proper condon to elect Bfsh-
on at the coming September Convention. It u far
more important thai we should not take false step
than that we should have Bishop Of our o"n raghf
away. Great principles involved IN the present
don those principles Tor the tempordng purposo Of
gratifying the deHre to get Bishop at ones, we VII
provo ourselves unworthy Of the great tr1st commit
ted to hands, and will do harm to the Church thht
it will require many years TO overcome.
Clause J. Canon xV., Title l., Of the Canon Of the
General Convention provides that Diocese without
full Episcopal charge and authority OF the Bishop Of
another Diocese until Bishop 90 duly elected
placed in charge would have full control Of the Dio-
cese and would attend to every need Why not place
tho Diocese IN charge Of some good Bishop on whom
we readily agree and walt until We arc better pre-
pared than to elect successor to the great White
house. PAcE.
To 1he Editor ef Tbs Cateaoo 7r1ouns:
CHICAGO, Aug. Tine above communication
from the August issue OF the Diocese the organ
Of the Episcopalians OF Illinois, confirms the 1u-
mors Of deliberste ATTEMPT to postpone any
election OF Bishop until more favorable oppor-
tunlty to press the alleged claims Of the Rev.
Dr.. De Koven. The plan is said to be to put
this Diocese in charge ot Bishop Of another
Diocese, and then have the charge transferred to
some Ritualistic English Bishop, OF whom there
are several without dioceses. It Is even reported
that, with the sanction Of the Chancellor,
and certainly to his knowledge, communication
has been opened with the Rs.-Rev. Henry Las
celles Jenner, D. D., formerly Lord Bishop Of
Dunedin, New Zealand. whose Episcopate in that
island WAS broughtto close in 1871, with the
view OF getting HIM here.

We are pleased to announce that
this substantial home company is
about to establish agencies in the var
ious towns in this county.
The company was organized in 1867,
and has succeeded in building up .
prosperous and solid business. The
law Of Iowa, under which it operates,
requires the company to keep on de-
post with the Auditor of State, an
amount equal to its entire liability to
policy holders, thus making the policy
holder absolutely safe. 1t issues all
the approved forms of life insurance
policies at the usual rates of first
class companies.
Its business is confined to Iowa, and
it loans all its money in Iowa, thus
giving all its policy holders the ad-
vantage of the low mortality and high
rates Of interest in the State.
DR.. B. M. FailoT, general agent fol-
Northeastern Iowa, is now here max.
ing arrangements for agencies in the
county and will be pleased to see al
who are in favor Of the advancement
Of home interests. Any one contem.
plating insurance should call and see
! him at once,
