BY EDWARD LOWE TEMPLE.

Among all the churches that. in one
form or another. claim the allegiance OF
Christian people In America. there is
none that. In respect 10 its government
or the spirit of Its institutions. bears
closer resemblance TO- or is more nearly
affiliated with. the national government
than the Protestant Episcopal Church.
IN the beginning II was the church OF
George Washington and OF most OF the
signers OF the Declaration and OF the
trainers OF the Constitution. Deriving
her descent directly from the Church of
England. It Is not strange that, before
she had substantiateo her claim to con-
fdence on her own merits. she should
have been criticised and distrusted as
the daughter OF royalty and perhaps as
having some lingering royalist sympa-
thies.

But such Misunderstanding passed

can character came 10 be known and
recognized, and he would now be a fool
1sh man who should couple the churches
in England and America in any different
sense than the subjects OF Great Brit
ain bear 10 American citizens.
No suggestion OF the Intimate relations
Of church and state has OF course ever
obtained on this continent, and indeed
in most respects the American church
is more democratic than the British. Her
historical derivation is only what IS
common TO all American citizens.
In England many livings Tor parishesl
are controlled by wealthy land owners
or representatives OF old and great fam
ilies, who have unchallenged right OF ap-
pointment thereto and disposition there
or There. too. bishops, appointed to
their sees by the Crown through the
prime minister. are entitled to seats IN
the House Of Lords. and to be- styled
your lordship." so that church and
state are almost inextricably united.
Primary Unit Prevails.
In the American church there is no sug-
gestion whatever OF anything Of this
kind. The primary unit IS the Individual

its own choice "a rector and vestry) and
the parishioners hold their annual meet
