The Popes encyclical on liberty says
aHuman liberty, in individuals as in socie.
ties or governments, implies the necessity Of
conforming to a supreme rational law which
emanates from God. The church is not an
enemy of honest, legitimate industry, but il
an enemy of license. Ib condemns false lib
eraIism or naturalism. which declares that
there is no supreme law and that everyone
must form his own faith and religion. Such
doctrine tends to destroy the consciousness
of the difference between good and evil, be-
tween Justice and injustice, and makes force
the sole basis of society. The church is moi
an enemy of democracy and rejects no form
of government"
Referring to Seth Lows withdrawal from
the Republican party because he cannot sup.
port the principles of protection to home in
dustry, the Brooklyn Times truthfully says
''The Republican party is not the place fol
free traders, progressive or otherwise. It is
not the place for those who cherish the delu.
sion that at some time in the hazy future the
friends of American labor are going to aban-
don our industries to pauper competition and

lection creates new industries and opens up
new fields for the employment of American
skill and energy, with every year there is GER
tain to arise stronger demand for such leg

of America and not of England
School teachers ethics are sometimes in
scrutable. The students of one of the prom-
inent educational institutions of Worcester,
Mass, are sorrowing over the recent action
taken by the faculty in the case of certain
student. The young man has great natural
aptitude fer drawing, and his thesis drawing
was surprise to the faculty. They had
formed low opinion of his ability as a
draughtsman and scholar, and at once sus-
pected that he had had help in preparing the
drawing. Accordingly they informed him

prepared by some other person unless he
could prove that he drew it himself. He de-
clined to furnish any proof beyond his word
but demanded the strictest investigation, and,
in case of his vindication, an apology. He
came triumphantly out of the affair and re-
ceived the apology he demanded.
The Tribune truthfully says: One by one
the Mugwump organs are cenfessing the
truth of the charge made against them four
years ago, and then SO hotly denied, that they
deserted the Republican party, not on any
question personal to Mr.. Blaine, but simply
and solely because they were opposed to the
Republican principle of protection to Ameri-
can industries. They did not then dare to
admit the truth, since it would inevitably
have defeated Cleveland. Their conspiracy
to befoul Mr.. Blaine with lying accusations
and to get the Democracy in power and then
commit it to free trade policy has not sue
ceeded in its prime purpose, which was to
secure the passage of a free trade bill before
the voters of the country could pass upon the
revenue issue. In this they have been beat.
en-. But their scheme has been exposed and
denials are no longer either possible or use
full. They now admit it all, and with G
serene impudence that would be startling did
it come from people less accustomed to the
contempt of their fellow citizens.
