FINLAND POLITICALLY.
From the Westminster Review

from the Westminster Reyiew.]
Politically, the position of the Fin
landers is peculiar. Their country en-
joys a large measure of freedom and in
ternal independence, yet 1t is under the
ultimate supreme control of Russia.
Most natives demur to the idea that
it has been absorbed in the Russian en-
pire, and they point to the fact that
each successive car during the present
century, on assuming office as grand
duke of Finland, has entered into a sol-
emn pledge to maintain unaltered the
original rights and constitutional laws
of the grand duehy. A copy of the first
imperial warrant to that effect, granted
in 1909, is hung up on view in all the
churches of Finland. The administra-
ton of the country is presided over by
a governor general, who is appointed by
the car. and with that functionary
there is associated a secretary of state,
who must be native of Finland.
The four legislative orders are con-
voked every three years. and each sits
separately, but they may deliberate in
common if this is asked by one of the
orders and supported by another of
them The privileges of the nobility
have been abolished. except so far as
concerns representation in their own
diet, where. unlike the other orders,
they are allowed, if absent. to vote by
proxy. The clerical chamber is always
presided over by the archbishop, and in
cludes the bishops and twenty-eight
deputies elected by the priests, also two
chosen by the universities, and certain
representatives of the public schools
The third chamber consists of about
fffty-six representatives of the bour-
geois class, one from each town except
in places with a population of over
5000. where one extra member is al
lowed for every additional 5000 inhab-
itants.
With the exception of the nobility,
clergy, women, soldiers and servants.
all ratepayers in towns have a vote,
but the rating qualification is high, and
excludes a large proportion of the in

Cardinal RampolIa and His Cordial
fty tic America-Records in the
Vatican Regarding the Eariy Set
Element in America.
ICopyright, 1894, by S. S. Mcclure
lStmited1

BY WILLIAM CLERGY CURTIS.
Two years ago Congress passed a res
olution instructing the President of the
United States to request a loan of Ger
tain historical relics and papers relat-
ing to Columbus and the discovery OF
america, from the Queen of England,
the government Of France, the Queen of
Spain. the descendants of Columbus,
municipality o. Genoa, and the pope of
Rome, for exhibition in the convent of
La Rabida at the Worlds Columbian
exposition.
: A copy of the resolution was for
warded to the United States legation in
Italy, with instructions to present it
personally at the Vatican, with an APP
propriate explanat ton, and to ask its
favorable consideration. But Mr.. White
house, the secretary Of legation, VINO
was acting as charge de affaires in the
absence of the minister, was unable to
secure an interview with the papal
authorities, and was compelled TO re-
port his inability to carry out the in
structions of the department in Wash
5ngton. No ambassador to the Vatican
IS ever seen at any function at the
palace of the king, and on the other
hand, no matter how loyal a Catholic
he may be, no diplomat accredited to
the court is ever received by or can
communicate with the pope. The Amer
tcan minister to Rome being accredited
to the court was not recognized at the
Vatican.
After a friendly conference with Car
dinal Gibbons, the secretary of state.
John w. Foster, sent instructions to

in Congress as an excuse for a politi-
cal debate. as the Catholic church was
supposed to control a great many votes
at our elections. The cardinal bright
ened up at this. and exclaimed that it
would be a glorious thing If the holy
father could visit America, breathe the
pure air of its prairies, and the spirit
of its progress. and live among the
liberal and enlightened institutions
that have given the United States its
greatness, its prosperity, it's influence,
and the happiness of its people Then,
speaking with great earnestness and
rapidity, he compared the condition of
the Catholic church in America with
that in portions of the old world, and
grew enthusiastic over its intelligence,
its enterprise, and progress, and it's
power, which he believed was due to
the independence and freedom of our
people. The minds, the consciences
and the judgments of men, he said,
must necessarily be broader and more
keen and accurate in the pure atmos-
phere Of America than they could be
among ruins and decay.
