The breach between the French gov
eminent and the Vatican appear to
have reached a stage wblcb preclude
compromise. The friction bad Ita origin
some time ago In the peseag of the aa
ocintlon law in France, under the
operation of which many Catholic
school were closed by tba government
It waa Intensified when on hla visit to
Ilome 1'resldent Lonbet Ignored the
Vatican and recognised tbe king of
Italy a the sol sovereign In Rome.
Thl gave great offense to the church
authorities and the pop sent a protest
to the powers. A soon a the French
government " Informed of the natnre
of the protest It recalled Ita ambassador
to the Vatican and, this action haa been
sustained by an overwhelming vote of
the Chamber of Peputlea, clearly evi
dencing the strong feeling there Is In
France against tba papal claim of tem
pore I power.
In presenting the position of the gov
ernment to the chamber, Premier
Combes declared that the action taken
meant thst the government will not al
low the pnpecy to interfere In It inter
national relation "an.d that we Intend
to have done once for all with tba super
annuated Action of temporal' power,
whlrh disappeared thlrtyfonr year
ago." Huch a declaration front tb prim
lulnlater of a Catholic nation, Indorsed
almost unanimously by the representa
tive of tho people, 1 a severe bl6w to
tbe Vatican, whleh still holds that the
kingdom of Italy is not an accomplished
fact, that Home Is the capital city of
tbe state of the church and tbtt the
pope- la tbe only legitimate sovereign In
Home. Tb attitude of the French gov
ernment la an unqualified denial of
these claim and pretentious and from
nd other source would ucb denial carry
so much weight.
What the ultimate effect of tb rup
ture may be upon the relation of
Franc with th papacy cannot be
clearly foreseen. Propositions looking
to tho serration of church and state
and to ttie termination of th concordat,
which more than a century ago waa
forced npon Plue VII by Napoleon, wer
rejected by the Chamber of Depntle by
large msjorlties, the premier being op
posed to extreme action at present, but
theee quest Ions will not be lost sight of
and It 1 a safe prediction that In the
not remote future there will be a aepa
ration of stale and church In Franca
and the concordat will be terminated.
The late electtona showed that the
French radicals ar increasing in
slreugth, and while they have not hith
erto attacked the concordat, perhaps
chiefly ant of reejMct for Ita arlglA, ax-
wt'T.g fAWm are Cke'y to toad t-ra

The eiege of Port Arthur ha b-sun.

Vies sure known to the ay-li-nce of mod
ern military etiglneerlng. It is certain
that the exlatlna defenses of Port Ar
thur ar of tbe most elaborate and for
midable character and according to the
statement of a Russian naval officer the
number of troops there exceeds 25,000.
while the place has enough provisions to
last a year. It la believed that not lea
than 150,000 troope will b needed to
take tbe stronghold by storm, but ss this
Is a Buselsn estimate It Is safe to dis
count It somewhat. It Is stated that the
Japanese commander will have an army
of 100.000 for operatione agalnet Port
Arthur.
It Is evident that the Japanese hav
decided that they must at any cost ae
enre possession of Port Arthur and that
thl must be accomplished, if at all,
within a short time, or before Russia
can add to Ita naval force or materially
In creae Ita army. In pursuing tbla pur
pose tbe Ja panes ar undoubtedly pre
pared to make whatever aarrlflce tbe
formldabl task may call for and It is
a sen red that tba loss of life In tbe siege
of tbe ao-called Gibraltar of the east will
b enormous.

The death of Senator Quay removes
from tb Held of American polltlce a
strong character, a man who wielded a
greater Influence and authority in the
political affair of Pennsylvania than
any on sine th time of Kimon Cam
eron and who won national recognition
by hla capable management of tbe re
publican campaign of 1884. While in no
ens a statesman, Mr. Quay wa r.-.ost
thoroughly a politician vigilant, adroit
and resourceful and not alwaya over
scrupulous a to th mean to the end,
though doubtles in thl respect not so
bad a bl more bitter enemle charged.
II waa essentially a "bo us" and the ma
chine ha built np about him in bis state
became almost invincible. Alwaya faith
ful to bla friends, he created a following
that wa ever loyal to him.
Aa a senator of the United State Mr.
Quay took no conspicuous part In legis
lation, but be waa an earnest supporter
of the policies of hi party. A a mem
ber of the senate committee on teni
toriea, Mr. Quay took great Interest In
tli question of the admission of the
territories to ststehood and made a per
sistent effort In the last session of the
flfty-seventh congress to eccure the ne
cessary legislation for their admission.
He very rarely addressed the senate or
engaged In debate, but he gave careful
attention to hla duties and was a good
worker In committee. Mr. Quay served
throughout the civil war, attaining the
rank of colonel, II made an excellent
record aa a soldier, receiving a congres
sional medal of honor.
While not to be classed among our
greatest political leader, and although
frequently employing methods that could
not be commended, yet Matthew Stan
ley Quay had uncommon ability for
party organisation and management and
among the republicans of Pennsylvania
there la no one of equal capacity in
the respects to take his place.

There la no reason for apprehending
that the republkan factional fight In
Wisconsin win endanger the national
ticket. The two factions have the same
electoral ticket and it wiil be chosen,
perhep by folly a large a vote a wa
cat by the perty four year ago. when
McKlniey had a plurality of over 100,
000. There are soggeations of trading
with the dcroofTaU, which might en
danger the national ticket, but although
the fight between tbe faction Is un
doubtedly bitter, the feeling will not be
carried so far ss to Jeopardize the
cbolc of republican electors. Governor
LaFoIlette is as sincere a republican
as there Is in his state and as earnestly
desirous of the success of the republi
can party in the nation. Jt la most
Improbable, therefore, that he and hla
supporters would make any trade that
could prove injurious to the national
ticket The leaders of the other faction
are no leas devoted to the party at large
and can be depended npon to do nothing
that might take Wisconsin out of the
republican column.
Democratic hope respecting that state
baa Borne be sis so far aa atate officer
are concerned and It la not Improbable
that the republican may lose one or
two congressional districts, but that the
republicans will carry the atate for the
national ticket there la not the slight
est reason to doubt.
Dr. Kelper, who, priding himself on
being "on of the old guard of demo
crat who since 1857 haa never missed
casting a rote for tbe success of hla
party," placed bla thumb and index
finger on the ""public pulee" of the
World-Herald with pen In hand and
poetry In bl vein, must bare been
stunned by the Injection of the follow
ing paragraph Jn tbe middle of hla
effutlon:
Inflammation began on my face and
spread all over my body. My eyes wer
swollen snd seemed butting out of their
sockets. I wss in a terrible pllarht snd
Buffered the moat Intense pains throughout
my body. The doctor aald that my raaa
was a very Severn one. Under his treat
ment, however, tha inflammation did not
diminish and tha palna whlh shot through
my body Increaaed In severity. A few daya
afur I had discontinued the service of a
physician a friend from Maine, who waa
vlaltlna ma, sneke very highly of Pink Pllla
for Pal People. After using six bottles of
tha pills I wss up and around tha house
attending to my household duties aa well
as ever.
A regular practitioner who offers thl
prescription for the IM of the body
politic Is liable to he disciplined for vio
lating tbe medical code.
Three nominee on the democratic
electoral ticket of New York bare with
drawn a a result of an Investigation
by legal authority Into their eligibility
or ineligibility by reason of being ofll
cially connected with national bonk.
The conclusion wa reached that It I
not safe for tbe party to take a chance
of having any of It electoral votes abut
out of the electoral college on a techni
cality. Ktrange that this point is a a
rule overlooked at the time nominations
are made. Tbe same situation haa
arisen every four years In some state
where nominees for presidential elector
have had to be pulled off the ticket as
a result of this neglect, although tha al
leged disqualification Is one that haa no
defensible reason behind It and la be
yond the understanding of the ordinary
mortal.
Great ado is mndo at fit. Loul over
the action of the exposition guard that
made Mis Alice I(ooser1t pay an en
trance fee because he did not know that
the wo th president' daughter. That
Incldont forcibly recalls a remark one
made by Adellna I'attl when astonish
ment was expressed In her presence that
the Jewels of the Madonna In one of the
cathedral bad been carried away by
thieve. "Robbers," excKlmed Madam
Pattl. "are no respecters of Madonnas
any more than of prima donnas." Gate
keeper at exposition evidently do not
respect the daughters of presidents any
more than they do daughter of other
people, when It come to collecting toll.
Th latest Indictment of William Ran
dolph Hearst la that he haa organised
a newspaper trust with the proprietors
of several Chicago dallies and raised tho
price of hla Huuduy red light edition to
new agenta In defiance of the Bherman
law thnt prohibits combinations In re
strnlnt of trade for the purpose of rais
ing the price of necessities. The only
defense William Kandolph Hearst will
bo able to mnke 1 that bis orange
colored wares have not yet bucuiue one
of the necessities of life.

When a boy tell ma that be Just yearns
for an education, that be longs to go to
oollg, but that he has no one to help him
aa other boys have; that, if be bad a rich
father to send him to college be oouid
make aome tiling of himself, I know per
fectly well that that boy does not yearn
for an education, but thai bs would simply
like to hav it If it could be gotten without
mocn anon, lie a oca nor ton, tor u mm
Lincoln did. Wben a boy. today, says that
bs cannot go to college, though deaf, dum.b
aad blind girls manage to do It, I know
that b ba such a knack of seeing dlffl-
cultiea that he will not only mlee college.
but will probably also miss most of what

STRAIGHT TALK OS I'HIOHI.
Th Oospel at Cesnsnoa Seas fee Or-
araalsed l.br.
falle'a Wackta.
Th gospel of common sens has never, to
knn.lMte... been ao well and aptly ap-
piled In ths exposition of trades unionism.
Its defects as well ss It virtues, as In a re
cent sddrca to worklngmMi by President
Mallm of tb New Haven railroad. Th
speaker took tbs ground, ss he had a per
fect right to do, that he wss sa much of a
worklngmari as any of thoss whom h ad-
reased: that he spok as on who knew
from long, personal sxperlence of th dlffl-
eultlss, snxletles snd burdens whicn every
one must encounter who esms his dslly
bread. II polnud out frankly the weak
nesses of the unions, tt tb ssms Una ss
frankly sdmlttlng their sdvantagea where
Drooerly aulded.
This Is the ag of th worklngman, Mr.
Mellen said, snd also the age of large op
portunities for every man who brings to
his work sn elert mind, sn earnest soul
and a fslthful spirit. Modern Industrial
conditions are such, tha stress upon th
men st the top Is so exacting, that ths Ut
ter soon war out, and th call Is con
stantly for new man to nil tha places qf
the old. Hut the man wanted for these
higher branches of service are not ths fir-
brands, th trouhl bredere, the talkrs,
hut rather the quiet man who works while I
others do the talking; thoss who are raucn
interested In their work aa their wagee;
and auch men, when found, need no help
from any source to secure either recogni
tion or increaaa of pay. Speaking directly
to members of th union President Mellen
aald that h wished them to understand
thst he regurded th unions ss a condition
that has come to stay, snd thst he desired
hla men generally to Join them. Ha did not,
however, regard these labor organisation!
aa an unmixed blessing. Said he:
They tre a good thing for tn arone, in
lnmnlnt man, for tn walking aeiegai
and th omcrs. hut are unnecessary for
th man who hss ths stuff an? courage
within himself to carve his own wsy in tn
world. Therefor, when I say unions ao
much good I mean they help the lama, the
halt and ths weary, at tn expepae ot tna
really competent. Divested of all ciap-
taan. th union Is simply a means or svsr-
sglng wages, snd sn employer views It ss
such. It Is a device for making thoss who
ar willing to work csrs for tnos wno
wsnt to 'soldier.' "
The chief trouble with unionism. Presi
dent Mellon said, wss It letoleranca Its
conduct towsrd thoae who differed with It
had been too often thst of the religious
bigots of ths old tlms who burned thos
whom they could not convert. H advised
thinking, sober-minded, eonservstlvs work
Ingmen to Join unions and tndeavor to
domlnst their councils, which sre now too
often controlled by hotheads, by anarchleta,
floaters snd demagogues. The danger to b
apprehended from the unions, hs said,
grows out of ths spsthy of ssna snd rea
sonable men In their membership who re
main st horn snd permit llre-eatar snd
self-seekers to speak snd set for thorn.
It Is ss foolish and a useless to try to
suppreaa tradea unlona on tha ona hand as
It Is to endeavor to abolish trade eomblna
tlonk on th other. Both are here to re
main as surely sa tha tldea are to .flow
and tha only sensible rule for right-minded
man to follow la that advlaed by President
Mellen. Join auch of these comblnatlone
aa your Interests dlrtats and do your part
In overcoming their ovlla and enlarging
their benefits.
