THE DRIFT OF POLITICS.

Senator John w. Parks. of Plymouth
one of the prominent members of the upper
branch of the State Legislature during the
last two sessions, was in the city yester-
day on legal business. Incidentally he
found few minutes to give to discus

ton invariably put to a member OF the
Legislature is will you be a candidate FOR
denomination and reelection" and when
the conventions had been complied with in
Senator Parks's case he replied:

I'm in rather a peculiar position. My dis

AMERICAS EFFECT ON ROME.

1t is. of course, absurd to imagine that
Cardinal Gibbons will be chosen to succeed
Leo XIII, but the frequent mention Of his
name as possibility at Rome and in other
capitals of Europe gives a striking illustra-
ton of the power exerted among the Roman
hierarchy by the American Catholic clergy.
A few decades ago it was easy to hear
mutterings of fear lest the growing num-
Der of Roman Catholics in the United
States should become a menace to our free
institutions. Out Of this fear came the
utterly senseless "Knownothing" political
movement many years ago. and other anti
Catholic agitation.
To the man with knowledge and vision
enough to read events and developments
lean Republic has had much more effect
on the Church of Rome than the church
has had on the Republic. With it's un-
paralleled organization for gathering mi
mute and correct information of affairs and
sentiment in all parts of the world. the
Vatican has been a careful observer Of the
American character. and no point in our
development from weak band of strug-
Cling colonists to one of the mighty nations

strength and power has furnished food for

thoroughly American character. American
institutions and American national aspira-
tions were understood by Leo his direction
of church polity as related to American
affairs amply demonstrated.
No American prelate ever spent a period
in Rome during Leo's papal reign that he
did not come back better American, and
no question of American affairs ever came
before him that was not settled in full
harmony with American ideals. The reor-
ganizations of the church in Porto Rico,

What can be accomplished by the persis

What can be accomplished by the persist
ence of a court, even in the face of ad-
verse local sentiment and disagreeing juries,
is we'll shown by the Turner case in Ala
hama. Notwithstanding the undisputed fact
that Fletcher Turner had held young ne
gro in peonage the jury in the Federal
Court disagreed last week. and the Journal
took occasion at the time to comment on
this point of weakness in our governmental
system But Judge Jones, of the Alabama
district. is a man of determination and
resource. 1t lay with him. as TO whether
Turner should be tried again and as to
whether he should be released on bail in the
meantime. He showed disposition to try
the young man again and again, until a
unanimous verdict could be got one way or
the other. and. since the prospects of get
ting his liberty in the meantime did not
seem bright, Turner finally pleaded guilty
and was fined $1,000. His plea must have
made the disagreeing jurors feel a bit fool
ish. But the great point gained is that the
court has found way of UNFOLDING the
dignity of the law.

There can be no doubt in the mind of any
right thing in declining to pass an ordi-
nance requiring all trains to come to a full
stop before every crossing where there are
street-car tracks. This would mean the

people. The proposed legislation savored
too much of the methods of the small town

The Grail ordinance was but a makeshift
at best. What is wanted is not some back
ward step to interfere with progress, but
