vcossor may not bo an Italian nftor all.
That tho Italian cardinals who form
jin overwhelming majority In tho
sacred college will do their beat to
give t hooHico to a countryman thero
is no doubt. But so much blttemoRa
"htia developed In tho fight between tho
Rampolla-GottI faction and Its oppos-
ors that tho latter are plainly threat-
'onlng If too hard pressed to throw
their support co a forolgner.
Cardinal Gibbons' name has uaf .
ally been mentioned In connection
with thoao rumors. The contingency
la not Hkoly to arise It Is true. Still
It 1b a possibility and the fact that
It exists has had tho roeult of greatly
Increasing tho keen Interest felt In
the only Aemrlcan representative lu
the congregation.
Cardinal Kopp Bishop of Broalau.
has also been ppokon of as a possible
candidate sluuld tho straggle be-
tween the Rampolla and antl-Rampolla
parties provo strong enough to give
the victory to any but an Italian. It
is hardly Hkoly however that tho
Gorman could b". successful In any
event Inasmuch as his elevation to
the papal throno might mean the Ir-
xeparablo loss of Franco to the holy
see.
It la an open secret that tho sup-
porters of Cardinals Rampolla anil
Gottl will vote for their respective
candidates on tho first ballot after
which tho ono who leads In the vote
will receive the united support 'ifl
both parties.
The collego as a whole is fast di-
viding for and against Rampolla.
There are howpvor throe classes
Cardinal Rampolla's direct supporters
those who will vote with him but not
for him and thoso who will voto
against him and his policy.
His supporters arguo that ho is tho
best man to contlnuo Leo's policy. His
opponents urge Uivtl the outgoing ad-
ministration sought to ingratiate tho
papacy with governments not with
peoples. Hence when tho French
government showed Its teeth tho
church did not have Uie French peo-
plo back of It. The cardinals who
arue thus Including tho supporters of
Cardinal Vannutelll agr?o with Car
dinal Gibbons that tho church will bo
strongest when it Is absolutely inde
pendent of all political opwers.

seriously considering tho advisability
of tilling a petition In the district

llnomen recently In their employ and
now in tho employ of tho Missouri

P1" b? tf Guthrie Telephone

termed "scabs" and other opproblous

Wennor. socretary'of Uie commission
to tho St. Louis exposition has not
boon drawing his per diem as a mem-

sition after having boon appointed
secretary of the territorial land board
ho stated to Governor Ferguson that
hn illiJ not care to receive nay for his
services on that board and that all J
work dono by him would be without
cost to tho territory. It will take a
month or two months for Mr. Wen
nor to arranga matters so that a new
men oan stop Into tho office and carry
on th bji&lnoss and no appointment
of a successor to Mr. Wennor will be
made beforo that time. It Is probable
that the raorabers of tho Oklahoma
commission will meet hore this week
