THE EPISCOPALIANS.

The triennial General Convention OF the
Episcopal Church opens its sessions at
Minneapolis today, and it is not unlikely
that there will be lively discussion over
so important matter as the name OF the
great religious organization.
The present official name OF "The Pro-
testant Episcopal Church in the United
States of America" the name which it
has borne since its first establishment in
this country as branch OF the Church
OF England, is not liked by a large and
seemingly increasing party of Episcopal
ians as implying an association with Pro-
testantism which contradicts their claims
and convictions OF the Church's catholic
ity and its historic position. So high an
authority as Bishop POTTER OF New York
has declared that the name Is inadequate,
and fails to express the church, and the
extremist view goes even farther than
that to declare that the name ought to
be the "Holy Catholic Church." from
the exact language used in the creed re-
cited by thousands at service. The title
"Church OF America" has also been sug-
gestive, corresponding to the "Church Of
England" branch. But such a title as
this would evidently 1t seems to us, ex-
press by suggestion at least, far more than
the church could claim.
We shall probably be furnished, in con-
nection with this discussion, with most
valuable and interesting studies OF church
history, traditions and prospects.
