III ELECTION OF 4 BISHOP
COADJUTOR.

As announced in The Messenger yes
terday. the council of the Episcopal
church for the diocese of East Caro-
lima Will meet in G~oldsboro on October
eth to elect a bishop coadiutor for this
diocese. AS We understand il, a
bishop coadjutor is merely an assis-
tant TO the presiding bishop. Such
assistant, while clothed with all the
clerical functions and powers of a
bishop in charge. still he is under the
authority Of the head of the diocese in
lay matters connected with the church,
and is subject to the authority Of the
presiding bishop. This step is taken
because Of the feeble health or the
venerable n beloved Bishop Watson.
The election of this bishop. coadjutor is
an important matter. not only to the
Episcopal church in this diocese. but to
the cause of Christianity generally
within the pounds of the diocese.
Therefore it should be the prayer of all
true Christians of all denominations
that in this matter the members Of the
council will work in harmony and will
act with conservatism and with due
regard. not only for the interests of the
Episcopal church, but for the cause Of
Christianity. That the health and ad-
vanced age of the presiding bishop is
such as to require this action is a.
cause of regret and sorrow to his en-
tire church and to many outside Of it.
In his long paStorate Of st. James
church and his seventeen years as
bishop of the diocese he has won the
love and esteem Of all persons ire
spective of church, and it brings sad
ness to the hearts Of E~piscopalians and
members of other denominations to
realize that the time has come in his
long and useful life when he can no
longer alone carry the heavy burden
which the holy office places upon his
shoulders. May the appointment of
his assistant so tighten his labors that
for many years to come he will have
the strength to continue his good work
as bishop of the diocese of East Caro-
lima

DEATH OF LORD SALISBURY.

This mornings press dispatches an
nounce that Lord Salisbury. ex-prime
minister of England. died at 9:05
o'clock last night. His death was not
unexpected. In fact it had been look
ed for hourly for several days.
In the death of Lord Salisbury passes
away one of England's leading states
men of the present generation. He
was one of the leading characters in
British politics for the past fifty years.
He belonged to the great and ancient
family of Cecil which has been promi-
nent in England for centuries. He be-
gan his political career as a member
of parliament in 1854. His first no
toriety as a public MAJ was acquired
by his advocacy of Disraeli's reform
measure in 1859. From that time on
he has stood out prominently as a
member of the conservative party in
England. On the death of Lord Bea-
consfield OisraelN in 1881 he became
the leader of the conservative party
and he held the office of prime min
lister in four administrations from that
time up to the wear 1900. when he re-
tired from active politics because of
old age and bodily infirmities.

Parents Acquitted.

Pittsburg, August 21.-Coroner Ha-
san, of Fayette county decided today
that Mr.. and Mrs. Jubileer were ignor-
ant of any wrong doing when they
shipped the body of their five year old
son from their home to Dravosburg in
a tin cam, and discharged them with a
reprimand.
The couple today convinced the coro-
ner that the boy had accidentally shot
and killed himself and they, not know
ing a burial permit was required, were
conveying the remains to a friends
house in Dravosburg for interment.

The battle will SOC be raging about
Portland, Me. The land forces are in
readiness to defend the port against the
fleet that is advancing upon it. No
one knows when the attack will be
made and the defending force has to
be on the alert all the time. There is
something absurd about these sham
battles and playing at war. but we
have the troops and the warships and
if our soldiers and sailors are to be
effective when real war comes upon
us they must know something about
it beforehand. We have learned this
mode of instruction from the European
monarchies since We have become lone
of the powers" Now that President
Roosevelt is in Immediate n direct
command of the army and navy We
ma look for a good many OF these
spectacular performances on land and
ON water.
