POPE LEO XIII.
A Protestant Estimate.

In estimating the character and influ-
ence of Pope Leo Kill, the Protestant
reader must remember and it is as
q PrOtertant to Protestants we write
that the Pope of Rome is controlled in
his actions by two considerations, both
of which Protestants are apt to ignore.
The first of these is his profound re-
ligous faith in a principle which the
Protestant never believes and often
fails to understand faith in the sup
remacy and infalibility Of the Church.
We do not believe it, though we think
we understand il. The second is the
fact that he works through an organ
ization governed as all ORDINATIONS are,
by its traditions, that is, its habits.
Man is said to be master of himself,
yet he is controlled, not merely by the
infirmities and the habits, but also by
the necessary laws, Of his body, through
which alone he can act on the world.
So the lope is controlled, not only by
the imperfections of the Church the
the head Of which he is, but also by its
temper, its habits and its necessary
laws. Working always in a spirit Of
entire and consecrated loyalty to the
essential principle Of the Roman Cath
olic Church, and always with tactful
and diplomatic skill in harmony with
its past traditions and its present per-
sonnel, Pope Leo XIII. has done all
that piety and statecraft combined
could do, consistently with this spirit
of loyalty and this harmonious cooper
alton with the hierarchy, to bring the
Church and the demOcrotic movement
of our age into harmony, by inspiring
the Church with the humanistic spirit
and by endeavoring to inspire democra.
cy with the spirit of respect to law and
order founded on and inspired by the
spirit of reveIance for God and the in.
stitutions of religion.
1t is the claim of the Roman Church
to be the only Church of God. the sole
heir to the authority of Christ, his true
vicegerent, "a church established by
Christ for the instruction of all; spread
for that end through all nations; visibly
conducted in the succession of pastors
and people through ALL" A consider,

Anglican church have during the past

NEW ROAD
FOR DEMTNG
Phelps Dodge and Company
Will Furnish the Money
Il will Begin at Deming
and will End at FierrO

The Evening News has reliable in
formation from q gentleman who Is
registered at the Hotel Sheldon, but
for various reasons does not desire to
be quoted, that the Phelps Dodge syn
dicate will shortly build from Deming
into Santa Rita and Hanover district,
where they control the Hanover group
Of claims.
The road will begin at Deming and
its terminus will be at Flerro station.
This Is a result Of series of negotions
which have been on foot for some time,
between the Phelps Dodge people and
the Santa Fe, to purchase the Santa Fe
branch up to Fierro from Deming.
The gentleman stated,'T have the
positive assurance Of President James
5. Douglas Of the Phelps Dodge COM
plly that the road will be built. For
some reason or other the Phelps
Dllge syndicate likes to build and con-
troll its own roads. Mr.. Douglas told
me some time ago that just as soon as
the f. p. & S. W. road was completed
and put in good condition with its con-
templated branches, the construction
of the Deming-Fierro branch will be
begun.
As understand Mr.. Douglas he
stated that the company proposed To
erect smelter at Deming, SO that the
ores of the Hanover properties and
those Of the Globe mines, which are
quite refractory in their nature might
be treated together. 1t appears that
the test Of the combination Of two ores
show that they are almost selfAuxing
ore. This is because of the iron in the
Hanover mines. The smelter will be
no small affair and will add greatly Ia
the prosperity Of the town. The road
from Fierro will add greatly to the
prosperity of the town and will doubt
less be continued on to Globe by branch
es Of the E. P. & S. w. 30 that the
Globe ores will all be transported over
the Deming smelters.
