pendent lat a recent joint session of the
county commissioners Of jefferson and
Meagher counties, the two boards decided
to build bridge across the Missouri river

the ground being that the debt OF the
county already exceeds the limit allowed
by law.

PERHAPS the southern Episcopalians who draw the color line closely about their Christianity can reconcile their course with something of religion which they can comprehend, but to those other Christians who recognize in every man 6 brother their action looks very much like fundamental negation of the very basis on which the religious structure is reared. Christianity that affects supe riority on account of the tinge of mems skin is not of the kind that can appeal with most hopefulness to the sympathies and love of mapkind. The founder of Christianity did not stop to inquire whether those he wanted to spread his gospel were black or white, and we take it that it is rather late to do it in the nineteenth century.

THE NEXT POPE.

Whether or not the college of cardi- nals will depart from the established custom and elect other t!san an Italian to succeed Leo XII, io is undesirable that there Is a widespi cad impression, not wholly unmixed with a strong de- sire, that the next pope wlli be either English or AmericaI. Many of the leading European journals, in discussing the question Of succession which occu- pies large pace il the public mind owing to the coz dition of Pope Leo's hea.th. interpret the feeling in high ecclesiastical quart rters to be that depar- ture is very likely to take place from the custom that has for more than three centuries and half made it necessary that an Italian should be elected as head of the church. It seems, however. rather too much to expect from a college of cardinals where thirty-three of the sixty are Italian that they will sanction or permit any departure from the time honored practice.
 It is interesting, however, to note the leading English and American candi- dates mentioned. They are Cardinals Howard, Manning, Newman, Moran, the Irish archbishop of Sydney, Gibbons and gaschereau, the archbishop of Quebec. Some have even gone so far as to suggest Archbishop Corrigan of New York as a possibility. Of course, in so far as ability is concerned, any one of these digni- taries, unless possibly the last named, would be equal to any demand the high office of head of the Catholic church oould make upon him. In point of political expediency, however, Cardinal Taschereau is generally regarded as the most available, while perhaps as thor oughly rounded out candidate, from every point of view, our own Cardinal Gibbons stands head and shoulders above Ahem all.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1889-06-10

As we said above, however, it is far from likely, even with the prevailing preference in most if not all the countries outside of Italy,>tha anyone other than an Italian will be called to the papal chair. The Catholic church IS slow to depart from established customs or prac- tices, and perhaps in no direction would it hesitate more to make the departure than in the selection of Its ruling head. And especially so when, as now, Italian influence is the reigning one in the col. lege of cardinals. .#
