Discomfort IS OUTSPOKEN

LONDON. April S.--ENen the thnn'
derer the London Times does not take
kindly to the change OF religion, faith
made by Princess Eua of Battenberg
in connection with the announcement
of the hetrohal to the king Of Spain.
Ii such things as the crime of lese
majestic could be possible on the part
OF the London Times, it would appear
that this newspaper comet close III
the line in the publication of great
leader in which it says:
1--WE trust that in the visits to her
native land, which we hope the princess
will often pay in future years as queen
OF Spain the Roman Catholic aspect
on her new dignity will be made as
little prominent As possible. The Brit
ish public will gladly wrlcomt her.
but it will not 50 gladly welcome the
sight OF Roman confessors al Bucking.

the Westminster cathedral"
In this connection the London Times
says:
"On one point, indeed, the approval
of the match in the protestant country
is not so general, and it would be mere.
ly courtly atfectation to ignore the
fact. Everybody wishes to see these
young people happy; everybody ap.
plauds the political situation that may
result from the marriage. But there is
the religious difficulty. We all know
that the king OF Spain must marry no
one but Roman Catholic and, if the
bride is not one already, she must be-
come one She must do in fact, what
German and other princesses, like the
present Russian empress and the em-
press. mother, are often obliged to do
on marrying with Russian sovereign
she must be converted and profess
the kings religion.
Now these sudden conversions for a
purpose are not to tn. taste of the
sincerely religious people, who still
we are happy to believe from the bulk
Of the population Of England. Their
view is adequately expressed in the
letters of the bishop Of London, Canon
Ransford and others, They regard re
ligion as the most important thing in
life-a thing not to bc forfeited or eX-
charged for a crown or for any other
worldly dignity on possession.
The objections expressed by the
bishops of London have been as he indi-
