DR.. J. NJ. King, of Now York, a leading can
didate for the episeopacy, offered resolution
for proposed amendment to the Constitution
of the United States. 1t relates to the protec-

the attitude of the churches with relation to

applauded.
DR.. King offered another resolution, declar-

National Government for ecclesiastical educa-
ton was not in accord with the principles Of
the Constitution, and the churches should re-
fuse to receive money from the Government for
the education of tho Indians. DIR. King spoke
earnestly ON the subject stating that all the
churches had been getting assistance from the
Government in their Indian work. He be-

with sincere regret that we note the intended

italian Crisis.

In the Chamber Of Deputies at Rome on May
5. the Government demanded vote of conf
dence on its financial program. which included
heavy reduction in the credits to be devoted
to military and naval expenditures. A long and
heated debate followed. When the question
was pat to vote the Government was defeated
by eight votes
Premier Rudini rendered King Humbert
tho designations of himself and Cabinet.
1t is universally admitted that change of
pies as we'll as of ministers is necessary
and the present phase of tho situation points
to the withdrawal of Italy from the Triple
Alliance on account of her inevitable decrease
of armament.
At this writing no Cabinet has been made up
All Europe is anxiously awaiting the situa-
ton.

The following is the plank in the Re-
publican platform which tho Demo
cratic party denounces as revolution
arp and an outrage on the people Of the
South" Will any honest, patriotic cit
izen say that it is unpatriotic and I'M
American? The "force bill" issue is a
side issue raised to create sectional
prejudice and to hold the solid south in
line, and here is the Republican decla-
ration it is based on:
We demand that every citizen Of the United
States shall be allowed TO cast one free and un.
restricted ballot In all public elections, and that
such ballot shall be counted and returned as
cast; that such laws shall DO enacted and en-
forced as will secure TO every citizen, BIO he rich
or poor, native or foreign born, white or black,
this sovereign right guaranteed BY the constitu'
ton.
The free and honest popular ballot, tho Just
and equal, representation OF all the people, as
well as their Just and equal protection under tho
laws arc the foundation OF our republican In
Institutions, and the party will never relent its
efforts until the integrity Of the ballot and tue
purity OF elections shall be fully guaranteed and
protected in'every state.
