treasures of the library of the Vatican. he
wrote the encyclical letter on socialism IN
1878, letter which did much to win Prince
Bismarck, and during 1870 he established
the council of education for Rome.
In 1880 the celebration of the 25th ami
versary of the coronation of Alexander,
car OF Russia, gave Leo XIII an opportu-
nifty of reopening relations with the Rus

sian Catholics. He seconded this by pro
claiming a solemn office of honor to the
memory of the Russian saints, Cyril and

Leo XIII and the italian Government.
The great question in the minds of all
men after the election of the new pope bore
on his policy toward the Italian govern
ment. His predecessor, Plus TX, had never
given up the claim to the temporal power
of which he had been deprived, and it was
soon seen that Leo XIII insisted as strongly
on his rights as temporal sovereign In
the first encyclical letter this position was
taken in the plainest possible way. The
pope also renewed the protests which Car,
dinal Pecci had made against the civilmar-
riage, which had become the law of the land.
From the first the new pontilf saw that
the field of influence open to him was that
of the peacemaker. He put himself into
communication with Germany, offering his
services as mediator between the govern
ment and the Catholic population, and these
were accepted. He interested himself in
eastern nations. He complained most Bit
terly Of the action of the Italian govern
ment, on the ground that priests were sub
ject to military CONSUMPTION; that the insti-
buttons Of charity In Rome were no longer
in charge of the church; that heterodox
schools were opened; that the bishops had
been deprived of all their functions and rev.
enues, and that the government had taken
to itself the patronage of the dioceses.
The Italian government was at that time
led by Prime Minister Depretis, man to
whom the idea of the temporal power of
the pope was an abomination. The minis
ter's policy was to deprive the papal gov
eminent of all power except in things spir-
itual The diplomatic training and subtle
brain of Leo XIII enabled him to sec that
his onlHchance to influence the government

Joachim Pecci's first position of impor-
lance was that Of governor of Benevento, a
small territory situated in the midst of
what was the kingdom of Naples. When
the French withdrew from Italy and Naples
was restored to the Bourbons, Benevento
reverted to the pope 1t was then an indie
pendent principality in the midst of a king
dom. The men who had been foremost in
their opposition to Napoleon had gradually
become guerrillas and bandits, levying
blackmail and smuggling. They found their
refuge in the high and broken lands of
Benevento until that state had become
menace to all about 1t.
This was the condition Of things with
which this young man of % was expected
