Bishop Melville Jackson.

Montgomery, Ala, May 2O.-Assist-
ant Bishop II. NJ. Jackson lives in the
country, five miles from Eufaula, in tie
southeastern part of the State. For
some time past there has been COM
plant of indifference on his part to his
work and failure on his part to visit
parishes where candidates were ready
for confirmation. This spring he en-.
tered upon visitations over the diocese
and has been preaching and working
with unusual vigor. During this time
when complaints were made against
him, excuses were offered Of serious
sickness, which incapacitated him.
There was qualification expressed at
his renewed interest in bis work, and
hope was entertained that he might
overcome the widespread dissatisfaction
that had been created. Ga Saturday
before last Easter he drove in from his
home to take train in Eutsula in
order to reach an appointment for next
day in north Alabama. He got out of
his carriage, and when on the street
persons who saw him report that he
was barely able to walk. This report
spread over the town and over the
state. The vestry OF st. James Church
wrote to Bishop Wilmer, giving details,
and sent copy of their letter to Bish.
op Jackson.
Current rumor is that Bishop Jackson
claims to have been sick for u day or two at
home, and unable to eat, and that on starting
| of he took a drink Of whisky on an empty
stomach, which produced the distressing re-
| suit now so widely known.
1t is understood that he makes no denial Of
! his condition on the occasion referred to, but
| pleads sickness and weakness as the cause.
The diocesan council net at Admission on
May 3. Bishop Wilmer, although 80 years
OF age and quite feeble, was present and pre-.
sided. Bishop Jackson was not present at
the opening of the council but teegrsphed
that the alarming illness Of his father who
lives with him. prevented his leaving home
/ On the first day of the council, and after re-
| ligious services, Bishop Wilmer requested all
| the clergy to meet him. No laymen were
present. and it was his intention, as far as
possible. to confne to the clergymen the
knowledge OF what was done 1t soon
! became known, however, that the clergy
| had unmOusly requested Bishop Jackson's
resignation. This WAS doEe in kindly,
| christian manner, ana Win promise 10 ala
him in securing from the council stipua.
ton for portion Of the salary he now re-
celves for five years to como.
Next morning, Bishop Jackson, having
! been wired, appeared. There was much con-
sultation OF the clergy with him. Lsymen
also met him. but they did not refer TO the
I subject which was uppermost in their minds.
During the day Bishop jackson addressed q
note to the clerical committed which was act.
ing for all, to the effect that the matter was
of so serious character he must have time to
consider, and that in due time he would give
his reply.
So far as the public knows, nothing more
has been done. Some prominent clcrgymen
have been TO see Bishop Jackson, and, it is re.
ported, have urged him to resign.

ONE OF THE republican newspapers

conference will stand justified; 1t has
cleared the atmosphere as to the Sena-
torship, and impressed upon the people
of the State the importance Of naming
the man before the legislature meets"
Tt NAV seem so to republicans in Wash
inpton. but that it does not, to the
democrats of Virginia, is patent even
to some of the few who took part in
the conference referred to. The natu-
raj feeling of antagonism it excited Ger
tainly did not justify it, and, unques-
tionably, the political atmosphere is no
clearer now than it was before the con-
ference was held, and that the people
are no more impressed now, with the
Importance OF naming the man before
the legislature meets" than they were
then. is plain to be seen, the more so,
as nearly all ofthe well informed and dis
interested men among them knew then,
that the man had already been named.
But the republicans of Washington,
like those OF the North, from which
nearlv all of the white ones among
them came, know nothing about South
ern people or their affairs.

The Northern South-haters are con-

tiers into the South is prevented by the
disregard of law and order in this Sec

lynchings of negroes for the crime that
has been developed in them since they
were set free. But that tune is not
