the ideas which he held in those days
were abruptly altered by the policy to-
ward the papacy of the dynasty which
he loved, and the entrance OF the Itai-
ian troops into Rome changed him on
the instant into one OF the most bitter
enemies OF reconciliation between the
Vatican and the Cuirinal. Following
his appointment to the bishopric OF Pa
dua. he lived on terms OF armed neu-
trality with the civil officials there. and
his enmity had grown so pronounced
when he was made archbishop ot Bo-
logna that the government refused TO
grant him an exequatur.
Since his creation as cardinal, Paroc-
chi has become less demonstrative in his
hostility, but il is foregone conclusion
that Italy and the other members Of
the triple alliance would regard with
marked disfavor and prevent. if possi-
bic. his elevation 10 the holy see.
France. on the contrary. it is said,
would welcome his selection. His friends
declare that in the event Of his success
Cardinal Parocchi would endeavor TO
the utmost to again give to the church
the universal character which IL enjoy
ed in past centuries and make the pa
pacy more OF a social than a diplomatic
power. Among the foreign cardinals
who are believed to favor the choice of
Parocchi is Cardinal Langemieux, the
archbishop of Reims.
1t has often happened at the conclave

Symmachus law been observed that the
papabeli-the papal candidates-are al
ready known. and the papeggianti-the
electors or makers-have for some time
past been carrying on campaign for
their respective candidates. 1t is. Of
course, impossible TO foretell with GER
tainty the result of the coming con-
clave, but the prominent names that
will come before it are already known.
Five years ago Cardinal Parocchi was
looked upon as the coming man, and.
while the trend of events has since in a
measure diminished his chances. he will.

is. as has already been said, OF lowly

fame in the main to his own native
ability and force of character. Born

it may be added, all votes have to be
given in person and not by proxy. This
provision will deprive Cardinal Moran
of Sydney, Australia, Of his vote. for he
could not reach Rome in time to take
part in the conclave, and rough wealth
er might also prevent Cardinal Gibbons
from attending.
The succession OF any one but an
Italian to the papacy is impossible. No
tangible advantage could accrue to the
church from the election of Spanish,
French, German. English or American
cardinal. On the other hand, the Ital-
ian crown and people would strenuously
oppose the establishment in Rome of
what, in such a contingency, would
practically be foreign sovereign and
court, belonging to a nation which may
at any moment find itself at odds with
the italian government. King Hum

mendous sacrifice no faithful son OF the
church would ever consent.
Thus 1t is very clear that the next
pope will be an Italian, and in making
predictions as to Pope Leo's successor
only cardinals OF that nation need be
considered.
Nearly II centuries ago Pope Sym
machus issued a decree forbidding the
princes of the church TO discuss his pos

Toastmaster Neumann mentioned
that this was the leading tenet of Ma

ter Henry f. Cooper, n brother of Pa
cific Lodge, to respond.
Masonry had more significance to
Minister Cooper than any other word
in the language. 1t inspired belief
in the Deity and a reverence for the
Holy Name, and suggested at once the
nearness and dearness of a Supreme
Being who is constantly guiding. Min
lister Cooper spoke of the times in
history when sects had become cruel
and had resorted to coercion and even
to torture to enforce their especial be-
liefs. Masonry sprang up at one of
