a LTHOUGH the local situation

4 y. for Republican enthusiasm.
the general results of the
election are full of encouragement.
Especially notable are the great Re-
publican pluralities recorded in the
middle and western states, now the
dominant force in Republican national
politics.
1t does not appear from the returns
from these states that the tariff re-
form doctrine as enunciated by Mr..
Cleveland is revolutionzing their in
habitants politically. in spite of the
alarm of Speaker Henderson and other
Republicans in the west. No doubt
there is an intense feeling of hostility
to trusts and monOpoies in that sec
tion. which is the eXplana ton of the
rising demand for Il revision of the
protective tariff. But it is evidently
satisfied that President Roosevelt is in
earnest in his efforts to bring about a
better regulation of trust and monopoly
evils and not inclined to prefer a des-
tructive to constructive remedy.
The result of these large Republican
puralities in the western congressional
elections is Enthusiastically popular en-
dorsement of the president and a serv-
ing of notice that he is to be the next
presidential nominee. They insure his
nomination by reclamation. They also
indicate his election. No lukewarm-
ness or underwriting in the financial
centres of the east can prevail against
him. assuming that he carries himself
as well in the next eighteen months
as he has carried himself thus far.
The state results betoken the general
2ladness of Republicans in this COM
monwealth to substitute harmony for
factionalisn and to seek within party
lines the correction of evils and abuses
monotonously magnitied by the opposi-
ton. Judge Pennypacker comes to the
governOrship with an extraordinary
commission from the best people in his
fearlessly and to show that there is
sufficient capacity in the party 10 re-
SiSt and TO overcome objectionable in
tluences and tendencies. He will enter
the executive mansion at Harrisburg
With no obligation beyond his oath of
office, and the party will look to him
to adhere to the spirit and letter of
that obligation religiously.

a widespread conception Of diplomacy. as
the practice Of deceit and evasion, which
resulted from the fact that in years past

that Cardinal Gibbons will shortly call a

whether the Catholic church. in this
country, is TO remain in q missionary

This matter is of prime importance to
the American church. and II is under
stood that if the American hierarchy de
sires independence, such viii be granted
The question Is to be voted on BY prov
inces.
It is significant Of the feeling in
church circles that at a meeting last
week of the bishops of the prov ince Of
Cincinnati. which comprises the do
ceses OF Columbus. Grand Rapids. Gov
ingJcn. Cleveland, Detroit. Fort Wayne,
Indianapolis. Louisville. and Nash lille.
and over which Archbishop Elder pre-
sided, II was decided by unanIn-6Is vote,
TO retain the missionary status occupied
at present Il IS generally expected
that a majority of the provinces will
favor present conditions as it is as
sumed, especially by the conservative
element IN the church, that the organi-
zation in this country is not sufficiently
well established to cut itself away from
the direction OF the propaganda.
It is also argued by the advocates of
the present condition that. as foreigners
by birth still dominate the affairs Of the
Catholic church in this country, il would
be iR5udicious and hasty to establish an
American church from heterogeneous
elements which would be American in
name only
