FRANCE AND THE VATICAN.

The trouble between church and
state in France has reached serious
point. The enemies of the church in
unfortunate France, having succeed
ed in their work of driving out the
religious orders and closing hundreds
of Catholic schools, have enlisted in
an attempt to destroy the authority
Of the vatican with the bishops and
priests of France. In order to under
stand the situation it must be borne
in mind that there exists in France
between church and state an agree
ment known as the Concordat. This
agreement was entered into in the
year 1901 between Plus VII, who was
then Pope, and Napoleon I. After the
destruction of the social fabric by the
French revolution the great Napoleon
recognized the necessity of the aid of
the church in establishing order in So
ciety. The ConcOrdat was the result
of negotiations entered into, and this
agreement was concluded on July 49,
1901, and has been the basis on which
the vatican and France has since
worked. This agreement consists of
seventeen articles. BY it the church
was to rclinquish all claim to the con-
fiscated lands which had belonged to
the church, and the French govern
mcnt in turn was to pay certain
amounts to the bishops and priests
yearly out of the public treasury. The
state was given the right Of nominat-
ing bishops, but the Pope reserved
the right to confirm or reject the NOM
nations. So long as the rulers of
France were Catholics the agreement
worked very well, but when Combes,
the Radicals and Socialists came into
power it became apparent that the
Concordat furnished an excellent
chance for quarrel. Nothing could
be more abhorent to the Catholic mind
than the thought that an apostate
appoint the bishops of the, church.
Not only does the present French
government insist upon selecting the
French bishops, but it insists upon
doing so without intervention or SUI
pervision from the vatican. If the
vatican should yield upon this point
there would be nothing in the way Of
nominating men VIGOROUSLY unfit for
the positions. Religion would very
soon be brought into disrepute by such
an. arrangement.
With the breaking off of diplomatic
| relations to-day critical stage has
been reached in the movement which
for some time has been steadily bear
ing France and the vatican further
apart. The present crisis, which only
terminates a long phase of the con-
| flict, arises from disciplinary action
| against two bishops who have shown
themselves supporters of the govern
ment in its proceedings against the re-
ligious orders and who were sum-
moned to Rome under threat Of ex-
communication and deprivation of
their functions. The cabinet forbade
the bishops to obey. One finally
Welded to pressure from the vatican
md the present situation followed.
| The outcome will probably be the
setting aside of the Concordat. TIL,
French government has the power t,
1eprive the church Of its state rev
niue, but it will never succeed in es
tranging the bishops and priests from

Ex-Governor Pattison, Of Pennsyl-

having been twice elected governor Of
that state Oil The Democratic ticket.
His uEtimely death suggests an evil

the subcommittee on platform which
had such long session at st. Louis.
There is reason to believe that his
life was sacrificed to politics. In

Massachusetts, sat through an all

Gov. Pattison, went home and died

Chairman Taggart has named n
powerful executive committee to
handle the campaign. AS we predict
ed last week, Mr.. Sheehan has been
made chairman. Ex-senator Smith,
of New Jersey, whom many thought
should have had Mr.. Taggart's place,
is also on the committee. There are
no better political managers in the
country than Sheehan and Smith.
August Belmont, John r. Mclean and
Col. Guffey will be able to look after
the financing of the campaign. Sena-
tor Martin represents the South, and
the selection of Mr.. Ryan, of Wiscon-
sin, for the seventh member means
that there is to be determined eff
fort to get the vote of that state.

The past week has witnessed de-
cided strengthening of the Democratic
lines. The most notable feature Of
the campaign so far is the overWhelm-

Judge Parker. 1t is altogether too
early to make predictions, but Demo-
Gratis certainly have reasons to be
hopeful Many things will happen be-
tween now and election day, and I'M
less the Democrats are unfortunate

the vatican. France may cut off the
revenue to-day as it has already done
i'll some cases, but when it commands
French bishops to disobey the COM
mand of the vatican matters of re-
ligion and discipline, it will utterly
fail. There may be some bishops who
will be inclined to follow Combes in
the hope of reward, but any such will
find themselves without ecclesiastical
office and without focks. The ma
tional feeling is strong in France. A
movement to establish national
church independent of the vatican
might gain Roadway were it not for
the fact the French people are Catho-
lie to the core. Combes has succeed
ed in his warfare on the religious
orders. The appeal for national
public school system has won, but
when the people are called upon to
pay taxes for establishing an entirely
new school system in place of the one
destroyed, there may be another story
to tell. Combes will find that in a
struggle with the vatican for control
of the clergy Of France he will come
out very bad second. France is one
of the richest countries in the world,
and the French people are abundant
ly able to support their clergy and
maintain their churches. Indeed, we
believe it will be distinct gain for
Catholicity in France when the Con-
cordat is finally abandoned. France
needs the church and by that we mean
the French government. The church
can get along without France.

EVERY BALE WILL BE NEEDED

Hon. Hsrv1e Jordan, president of the
Southern Cotton Growers Association
has issued an appeal to planters to
hold their cotton for higher prices.
He says the estimates of the crop by
the bear spectators are too large, and
believes the crop will not go much be-
yond 10000, 900 bales And even if it
should reach II, 200, 600 bales he says
"she world wants ever bale of it and
the spinners are better able to pay
high prices this season than last, be-
cause yarns have advanced three cents
a pound this season and heavy de-
mand for Certain goods exists" He
argues that the growers debts have
been paid and that there is no neces-
sity of rushing the cotton to market
for fear prices will be lower than they
are now. He urges producers to "stand
firm and refuse to sell at present
prices" They "should demand II or
II cents pound for the balance If the
crop" This is good advice, if the in
formation and calculations upUn which
it is based are accurate

SOUTH ABLE TO STAND ALONE

The suggestion recently made by
the democratic press that the South,
in future, assert her political indepen-
deco, rikes q popular cord Many
are there who believe that in the next
presidential campaign the South will
demand and secure a seat at the head
of The party table, to which it is en-
TITLED by reason of the fact that 1t fur
nishes nearly all the electoral votes,
and can be depended upon to remain
true and steadfast when the battle is
Ga between the two great political
organizations In the campaign just
closed the Sou was promised VIC
tory if 1t won accept the candidate
and the issues of the New York wing
of the Democracy and allow that wing
to conduct the fight. As usual, the
South accepted the proposition and
subordinated itself completely. The
result is 100 well known. The recent
presidential race has demonstrated
most conv1ncingly that the South is
the stronghold of Democracy, and if
there is to be Demo cratic party in the
future the South should have much
larger share in It's control than has
| been the case IN the past. 1t is GER
ta1nly high time for the leaders of The
party in this section of the country to
cease playing second fiddle and to de-
mand recognition of the South in the
nomination of national candidates.
It is quite safe to say thasit Southern
man had been nominated fer Presi-
dent this year the defeat of the DEM
ocracy would not have been any great
er than it was, and might have been
much less sweeping If, as 1t would
appear from the overwhelming Repub-
llcan landslide, that the South is the
only Democratic party of the country,
the right of the South to name the
candidate for President in 1853 can
not be disputed, and Southern man
should be nominated in that year
without any regard whatever as to his
chance of election or defeat, If he is
defeated merely because he is from the
South it viii merely prove how false
have baeR Northern professions that
sectionalism is dead and the country is
united, and it is better for our peoplt
to have that fact clearly established
Certain is it our past loyalty to candi-
dates of the East and middle West hal
brought US no reward, and we are The
poorer therefor.
