4 friend said to US the other day,
jestingly, we presume, in reference to
our local mention Of Bishop Howe's
visit last week, that she denied the
apostolic confirmation and demanded
the proof" Well, may the good Lord
deliver US from religious controversy,
and particularly about the "historic
episcopacy." While an editor is held
justly responsible for his credence and
political deliverances in the editorial
page, he should be free to give free ex-
preston to the different opinions of his
patrons-to defer to their shades of eX-
preston, upon the hypothesis that the
freedom of the press presupposes a
judicious freedom Of utterance growing
out of the liberty of conscience. A pres
idento Of the United States Senate once
deferred to two members from a GER
tain State in the following courteous
way. The gentleman from Arkansas
has the floor, and when the other man,
who pronounced the word differently
rose to speak, he would say, the gentle
man from ArkansaaO has the floor.
