The Pope.

Rome, 25.-The Pope to-day, received
cardinals, who presented the customary
congratulations. In replying to sn ad-
dress his holiness said: The pspscy is
proclaimed to DO great moral force,
and the powers are reunlting their re-
lations with il.
In reply to congratulations by the car
dinals, the Pope, abiding to the Martin
ucui case, said fresh attack upon the
dependence of the sovereignty OF the
papacy had recently been made. The
consideration VII CHI formerly was
shown for the holy see, and which WAS
dictated by political and pru Genital
reasons Of state, has now been put aside,
His holiness added that despite every
thing he Reuld continue to defend the
rights and interests of the church.

MORE CHANCES FOR GUITEAU

/ Mr. Scoyille, in the Guiteau case,
evidently talked against tine last
week, His speech occupied fully three
more days than 1t was anticipated he
would consume, and the monotonous
repetitions character zing his remarks
astouished many who could not un-
derstaud what he hoped to accomp-
] lish. But Mr. Scoville did accomplish
something. By prolonging the case
through the week just closed he has
secured his client 4 longer lease OF
life, no matter what may be the
verdict of the now thoroughly
wearicd jury, or, finally, of The court
in banc. The statutes. regulating
criminal matters in the district of
Columbia present many pc
cuiiar features. One Of these
is a provision that a convicted
criminal cannot be sentenced till a pc
riod OF thirty dsys after the expira-
ton of the term during which he was
convicted. One general term of the
criminal court Of the district (the
tribunal trying Guiteau) ended on
Saturday last and a new one COM
menced yesterday. Had Guiteau been
convicted any time during last week,
his sentence would not have beeu
pronounced until late in February.
Bat tie trial runs oyer into the new
term ana thus Guiteau secures a fur
ther delay. In availins himself of
these technical advantages Mr.. Sco-
vile has but adopted the course that
would have been chosen by any law
Yer of ability and keen perception.
He plays for all the chances-a hung

man, or anything else that may come
up during the next three months to
change the course Of events. Ii may
be that the delay will not avert the
worst for Guiteau, but at all events
Mr.. Scovllle is wise to grasp every
chance and results may vindicate his
energy and keen watchfuness. There
are many who now believe that this
jury will not find Guiteau guilty off
murder.

The Bolton Journal rises to a ques-
ton of privilege as follows:
The Waco EXAMINER has joined
the San Antonio Express in its pro-
tective proclivities. The Dallas Her.
ald continues to vigorously advocate
free trade. AS the tariff issue is now

The EXAMINER does not endorse
protection as distinctively leading
feature of a tariff, nor, on the other
hand, does it believe that a tree trade
or tariff for revenue only, no matter
how commendable the principle, will
meet the appreciation of the country.
Hence we favor a revision OF the tarif1

COLOR AND EnIrCATInN.

The supreme court of Illinois seems
bent on forcing the color line into
social matters, and invoking the pow
er OF the law to regulate customs that
IN other communities adjust them
selves by the common consent, and,
we may add, the common sense of the
citizens, white and colored alike. The
city OF Quincy afforded the opportu-
nity for this interference in Illinois.
The school board in Quincy had divid-
d the city into eight districts for
school purposes, and adopted rule
requiring all children of African de-
scent 10 attend one school especially
intended for coi0red children, eXclud-
ing them frcm tho other schools.
The supreme court, hearing the case
on quo warranto against the school
board. held that the regulations abOye
described are in violation of the stat
ute of the state which prohibits di-
rectors and school officers from max
ing and enforcing any regulation
which shall directly or indirectly ex-
clude any child from the public schools
on account of color. The court says :
"The free schools of the state are pub
lie institutions, and III their manage
ment and control the law contem-
plates that they shall be so managed
that all the children within the Dis
trict, between the ages of seven and
twenty-one years, regardless of race
or color, shall haye equal and the
same rights to he derived theretrom;'
and concludes by saying that the
| Quincy board of education had nC
right TO make and enforce the rule
complained of in the Information
