The weather bureau here fs ccntldcnt that Cincinnati and all points above it will have their highest water tomorrow, and that at no place will it reach such a stage as three years ago. At Parke rsburg, W. Va., the river gauged forty-three feet and six-tenths to-night, and was rising less than an inch an hour. There is a great volume of water averaging fifty-five feet from there down to Huntington, and a slight rise in the Little Kanawha and the Muskingum to-day kept the water from receding there.

Church unel State. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: In your issue of the 21st Inst., under the head of "Capacity for Self-Govcrnment," you account for Iberian failure in self-government by suggesting that the AngloSaxon is the only race capable of s. ich government. The capacity of races is to he measured by their achievements, and the Anglo-Saxon is the, only one who nas, .13 yet, satisfactorily demonstrated capacity for self-government. Rut capacity Is a' thing of training, as well as of nature. An Anglo-Saxon child, raised by a Chinese, would be a Chinese In mind. Spanish-Americans have, of course, never had training la good government, as their foremost preceptor, Spain, was bad. indeed. And. too, they have always been hampered with a b'g eil stacle, unknown to us. The church has been, for ages, the most reliable piliar of govrntnent in Spain, and Its political power is gre-at. It helps the government to hold the people In physical subjection and the- government helps it to hold the people In mental subjection, and. between th- two. the people are in bigoted serfdom. Of all bondage, that of church takes deepest root and is hardest to eradicate. Long time must be had therefor. Spanish emigrants to America wvre all bigots of the e-hure h. as weil as serfs of the King. They and their descendants linally liberated themselves from the King, but net trorn his church. The church had too strong a hold on ail the people, even the liberators, for them to free themselves In a shart tlmo from its fetters. The church's political power is the great obstacle to good government and progre-ss in Spanish America. The church fears liberty and progress as Inimical to its interests. Its antecedents, organization, spirit and practice are monarchical. Its functionaries throughout Spanish-America continue to be largely from Spain. Portirlo Diaz saw that the church's large political power in Mexico would be fatal
