fortunate events Of yesterday, when
there were violent encounters between
the soldiery and the Catholic peasantry
in certain provinces where the church
is strongest, may prove but the prelude
to more serious disorders on Dec. IL.
Church doors were broken in and sane
tuaries violently entered by the state Is
representatives, who had been denied
peaceful entrance. Many inventories
still remain to be taken, and there will
be repetitions of these scenes in many
places.
! One cannot but believe that the good
pope--a pious and kindly man of the
finest impulses, but with no great
genius for statecraft-has been badly
advised. The majority must rule in
France as elsewhere and, since the ma.
jority has declared, not once but sew
eraJ times and in the most emphatic
way, for the entire separation of church
and state, it would seem the part of
wisdom for the church to follow the
policy it has followed in America and
other progressively democratic coun-
tries-that Of conformity to the polit-
ical institutions Of the country.
On the other hand, the government
is calculating radical change in pol
icy. The people are behind it, true;
but it must show true craftsmanship
by tempering its frmness with GER
tain wise laxity. In the end the church
will not only submit, but will greatly
profit by it's new independence.

HE SAYS MARS is INHABlTED.-
Edward S. Morse, member of the Ma
tional Academy of Sciences, says that
Mars is inhabited, or, at the least he
sees good reason for believing so in the
markings of the planet. In a new book,
Mars and Its Mystery, Mr.. Morse holds
that the markings of Mars are not such
as result from natural causes, but are Of
a character to indicate intelligent effort
He makes comparisons with the similar
artificial markings on the surface of the
earth. Altogether his argument is in
teresting and rather convincing, tho not
conclusive. . The book is valuable as an
exposition of late research into the char
acter of our planetary neighbor.

What Does the Standard Mean?

e The present organization has existed
unchallenged for many years.-C1rcular
of the Standard Oil company.
If this were true it would not be
proof that the organization is either
legal or just. Slavery existed un-
challenged for many years, but always
was blot on the American republic.
But it is not true. The Standard Oil
trust has been challenged all thru its
existence. The independent reiners
challenged the old South Improvement
company, the basis Of the Standard Oil
trust. The legislature of Pennsylva-
MIA challenged and denounced 1t. The
congress of the United States did the
same thing.
But perhaps the Standard people re.
fer to legal challenge. AS to that, At
torney General David Watson chal-
1enged the trust soon after it was
formed in the supreme court Of Ohio
and obtained a solemn decree for it's
dissolution. This order was never
obeyed honestly. 1t was evaded by
the trick Of appointing liquidating
trustees who never liquidated, but went
on managing the trust, tho their sole
duty was to wind it up.
It was challenged again in 1897 by
Attorney General Monett Of Ohio, who
became satisfied that the supreme court
order of 1890 had not been obeyed. The
liquidating trustees fed before his at
tack and formed the Standard Oil COM
pany Of New Jersey, which has been in
court in one way or another nearly
every year since.
The form Of the Standard Oil COM
pany has been challenged frequently,
and the only rG-,on that its status has
not been settled yooner is that the Off
GERS of the company have avoided serv-
ice Of subpenas which would have
brought the matter to head. Attor.
ney General Hadley Of Missouri was
hampered in this way last year by the
cowardly skulking Of John D. Rookie.
teller. Undoubtedly the United States
& will be annoyed by the same kind of
skulking this year.
So many successful and unsuccessful
legal attacks are a matter of record
that it is rather short memoried Of the
Standard to come in and plead that
the organization has existed unchal
lenged for many years. The fact is
s that there has never been year since
the oil trust was formed when its ex
istence was not challenged in court, in
/ congress or in public protest.
