MR. 1soUITH AND THE CATHOLICS.

The acrimonious political wrangle over Mr.
Asuuth's course toward the recent Eucharlstlc
procession OF the Roman Catholic Church IN
London is comparable in unseemliness to the
hostile demonstrations which portion of the
populace made toward the procession Itself. 1t
was deplorable to have a function which large
part of the Christian and civilized world re-
garded with peculiar reverence treated even as
mere raree show, not to mention its being
assaiIed with insult and with threats Of vio-
Ience and it was deplored by multtudes who
as natter of conscience and faith most
strongly dissent from the doctrines and prac-
tices of the Roman Catholic Church. 1t is
pretty safe to reckon that the man who has
most sincere and intelligent devotion to his own
religious faith is most inclined to treat with
courtesy the sincere faith and worship of his
neighbor. however much it may differ from MS
own. But it is scarcely less deplorable, now
that the incident is over. to have it taken up
and exploited with partisan animosity as fac
tional stock in trade for the political campaign.
Mr. Asquith's dilemma was trying one. and
entitled him to the sympathy, at least to
the forbearance, of all thoughtful citizens. In
deed the whole situation was peculiarly trying.
A solemn religious procession, Offering nelther
religious nor civil menace or offence TO any one,
and participated in by many Of the most emil
nent and loyal citizens Of the kingdom, would
seem to have been something which should be
permitted. Yet. in fact, it was, at least as
fully designed, a technical violation Of the law
and of a law enacted not in the Dark Ages but
in our own times. It was the government s
duty 10 enforce the law and to maintain order !;
vet To have done so TO the very letter would
have invited the charge Of intolerance and big
otry. On the other hand, to have ignored the
law entirely and let the procession be con-
Quoted as originally planned would have pro-
voked disorder and scandalous occurrences, be-
sides bringing upon the government the serious
reproacb of Indifference to the law Mr.. As
outh chose a middle course. He advised and
persuaded the Catholic dignitaries TO modify
their plans by emitting from the procession
that feature which would have been most OBJ
viously in violation Of the law and most pro-
vocatiye of mob resentment. and to the pro-
cession thus modified he gave a full and, hap.
ply az efficient measure of protection
The root of the trouble lay, Of course, in the
somewhat ambiguous status of England in re-
spect to the relation between Church and State
The kingdom is neither despotic nor free. 1t
does grant a notably large degree OF religious
liberty, to Catholic as well as Protestant, 10

THE POOR OLD FATHERS AGAIN.

ProcIaiming himself a conservative, opposed
TO the reckless radicalism of Mr.. Taft and seek
ing reforms which will restore the government
TO IT'S old foundations" Mr.. Bryan. with that iu-
consistency which is the virtue Of great minds.
cannot forbear the pleasure OF jumping on
the poor old fathers Of the Constitution AMI
smashing the "old foundations of the govern
1nent into srnithereens whenever he finds the
wicked Republicans following the precepts and
example of the fathers and building securely
upon the aforesaid foundations. Thus he de-
nounces the dangerous tendency Of the Repub-
ncen party toward imperialism in its Philip
pine policy. It tends he SAYS, 'to ignore all
constitutional restraints, for IT administers a
government IN the Philippines without -consti-
s'tutional limitations" How very, very shock
ingi For ''the ignoring Of the-Constitution in
dealing with the Philippines tends TO the weak
.ening of the Constitution at home. and tends
salso To disregard of constitutional principles
s'of government" Quod erat deinOrlStrGf1dHn.
Alas. the poor old fathers, How little did
they think what q raling over the Goals they
would get from the great Constitutionalist Of
lincoln when they established the principle
and maintained the practice OF administering
territorial governments without constitutional
limitations There was that man Jefferson for
instance aided and abetted by James Madison
and Albert GaIlatin and John Randolph of
ernment in Louisiana without constitutional
limitations How monstrously, in the light Of
this later wisdom, did he and his strict CON
s1rucfionist associates thus advocate imperial
ism, weaken the Constitution at home and dis
regard constitutional principles of government! /!
Then there were James Monroe and John
Quincy Adams and Andrew Jackson, who per.
sisted ia administering a government in Florida
without constitutional limitations and thus
played ducks and brakes with whole consti-
futional system. Let them forever be GRathemG

Jew as well as GENTLE. Yet 1t maintains
State Church and it retains upon Its statute
book and in It's constitution certain rlgld ois-
ordinations of creed. Had England been like
Russia. or like the Rome of short time ago.,
it would have forbidden and suppressed entirely
the whole procession and. indeed, the Euchar-
istic Congress itself Had it been like Amer
ica it would have let the original plan be exc
cuted without controversy or disturbance. BE-
ing England, with It's significant history ana
its ineradicable characteristics of temperament
and resolution, it had to pursue composite
policy and to pay the penalty which such
policy inevitably involves. The whole incident
was one which might more wisely and pront-
ably be left in the past than kept In the fore

swept the state and attracted all the independent
voters. AS it is they can. gain votes from the
Republican state ticket. and the great indepen-
dent vote will all be cast for Charles z Hughes.
1t is to him and the high ideals he has estab-
lshed that Is due the fact that the Democratic
party has also been forced to nominate the
strongest ticket they could and also choose men
of high ideals. IT is small part OF the service
which Governor Hughes has given TO the people
