LONDON, May lO.-Dr. Vaughan, who
was inducted Sunday as archbishop of
| Westminster, has not yet received the
pallium. Until Dr. Vaughan receives his
palilunl-a part of Roman Catholic
arehbishops vestment, which is made for
| ana buried with him-he will, strictly
/ speaking, be only the archbishop-elect of
Westminster. DR.. Vaughan will evident
| ~ pursue in some respects a different
| course from the late Cardinal Manning.
10 an allusion to the part Cardinal Man
| nlng took in regard to the labor agitation
Dr Vaughan replied that it.appeared to
MIN that the employees of labor and the
people employed in labor were the
people to discuss these questions. 1t was
not for a person in his position to lay
uown how many hours man should work.
Will Help Whenever He Can.
But it did appear to him that the sooner
I~ople got to understand each other land
TO realize that they must give and take,
the better it would be for all concerned;
and If he could see his way-if it was man
nestly for the interests of the community
he would do what he could to bring
ABOUT that consum nation; as no one who
had the interests of the community at
heart could refrain from rendering any as
sistance in his power. On the subject of
temperance Archbishop Vaughan is much
more liberal than was Cardinal Manning.
he Is content to urge some such restric-
ton as only drinking at meals, and not
frequenting public houses, being thank
tul for even the smallest success in this
direction.
Impossible to Shut OF the Beer.

drinking in a country where it has existed
since the time of the Druids, he considers
not only Quixotic, bat utterly impossible;
and instead of wasting effort in attempt
ing the impossible he would prefer to
la Dor in a direction that cannot be but
productive of good-the founding of coun-
ter-attraction3 to the public house, to
which men could take their wives and
families and enjoy some little relaxation
and amusem ent.
His Ideas on Education.
But it is on education that the new
archbishop speaks his mind freely. He
said that he feared an enormous number
of men are drifting away from Christian
ity;i and this he ascribed to the Goddess
system of education in the board schools.
The whole future of the country, he point
ed out, will depend upon the education
NO" btLIS gwen TO Une chllGreD: vet
thousands are being educated now upon
whom Christianity will sit very lightly
indeed. If only the Christian denomina-
tions had little more courage of their
convictions and would insist upon equal
terms for denominational schools and
board schools his hopes for the future
would be brighter.
Makes an Example of France.
He said with emphasis: Continue to
EDUCATE the children without religion def
nite2y taught, and social questions and the
labor question will become more pressing
and difficult as time goes on" As an apt
Illustration of his argument he cited the
anarchist doings in France II should
have thought" he said, "that people see-
ing what is going on there, and what we
may come to in this country, would see the
necessity of teaching the principles and
doctrines of Christianity to the children;
that they would see that by training chill
dren to be clever and intellectual without
religion they are simply strengthening the
mental powers to be used on the side of
selfshness, greed, or practical disorder or
anarchy"
