THE St. Louis Central Baptist

may suffer for the lack of funds in
case the religious orders in the
Philippines are suppressed. To
| this the Church Progress answers:
t“We were not aware that the
Papal income from our Oriental
possibilities was so important a
factor in the sustenance of Rome.
But we assure our contemporary
that the Papacy has passed through considering the killing of innocent

THE Chicago Board of Educa,

thrown out of use in the public
schools, because they referred to

Rightly so: England is no more
"the mother country” than Ireland
or Germany: all Europe has con
tributed to our birth and growth

I should be the last to feel offended

at fault.
In the second case, if Dr. Mivart
refused to sign the profession of
faith because he cannot accept the
propositions contained therein,
then he has suffered shipwreck in
his faith and placed himself out-
side the pale of the Church.
Neither the age. nor the eminent
position of the man, nor the ser-
vices he may have rendered to re-
ligion, can excuse him. On the
contrary, the higher the standing
of the person, the more necessary
it is to take cognizance of his er-
roneous suggestions in order to
prevent others from adopting sim-
ilar views or from concluding that,
because the Church docs not speak,
their adoption was permissible.
