Bishop's Authority. mm HO POWER IN OTHER MATTERS What Consecration Confers When There is no Shadow of Right Can not Coerce At Washington. EDITOR P. C. A It was with much pain that I read an article in the Saturday isue of your paper, rela tive of myself and church matters. I am quite sure that you do not mean to misrepresent me, but you have done so nevertheless, and I Wg you will kindly permit me through your col umns, to correct you on two points: You failed to grasp my views of the Dishop's position in this diocese. The very last thins I wish to convey was, that I held the view that the Bishop had " no color of authority for ruling the Church in Hawaii." He has the spiritual rule of this diocese. The Bishop in every diocese is the spirit ual ruler and head of the church, and the very act of consecration confers upon him certain sacred powers and prerogative which give him spiritual jurisdiction in the diocese to which he may be appointed. The Episcopal Church is founded on the principle of the Bishop's authority in spiritual mat aters, as a monarchy is, on the prin ciple of government by a monarch, in temporal matters. What I wished you to understand was that the Bishop had no coercive authority whatever confer red on him either by the English Church or English crown, or by virtue of his office, to discipline either the clergy or the laity, or to interfere in any way with the rights or liberties of any man in. this country; and that when he undertakes to do so, he does so, ultra vires and entirely on his own responsibility, without a shadow of authority, and by English Ecclesiasti cal law only those persons in the church who choose to acknowledge his temporal supremacy are bound by it. The Bishop is quite clear on this point himself, when he states in the April issue of his Diocesan Magazine that the "Anglican Church in Hawaii is a voluntary Association." This is quite true, and he, by virtue of his office is president of the association. The pre sident of any association enjoys cer tain powers and privileges attached to his office, as does the Bishop, but thes. powers are limited, and he may not go beyond them, without the consent of the members of the association, and if he does, his action is not lawful. In England and in the United States, Bishops have coercive authority con ferred upon them by the church, with the consent of their respective govern ments, very right and necessary in the interests of good government, but here no such power has lxeen conferred, which makes all the difference, and it is the coercive ruling of his diocese that I say the Bishop exercises with out authority. All good churchmen hold the office of the episcopate in the deepest venera tion and respect, and when it is un worthily represented, it is the greatest calamity that could befall a church. With regard to my visit to Washing ton to attend the general convention of the American Church, you infer that I was received there with marked at tention, which was not the case. I was received with the courtesy that any clergyman from a foreign diocese, might expect at such a convention, from such a body of men, with per haps a tinge of extra interest, coming from the Sandwich Islands, and a new possession. In a few cases the cour tesy extended to me by Bishops was noticably scant, but the instances were few. The House of Deputies po litely gave me a seat on the floor of their house, by which I had access, to members of committees, but not to the committees in session, as your paper would intimate. The House of Bishops sits in council alone, and the public are excluded, the House of Deputies is comprised of the clerical and lay dele gates, and it is this House that ex tend a welcome to such visitors as I was. I have to say that I did use every endeavor to put the members of this convention in full possession of the facts, and the true condition and state of our church, in order that they might legislate the more intelligently in the matter of this new possesion. This was the purpose of my going to the convention I presume. After three weeks' session I left Washington, feel ing that we had the sincere sympathy of a very great proportion of that Con gress, and that we might rely upon the American Church for assistance in the satisfactory settlement of our dif ficulties, if our cause be right, and the movement general. The joint commit tee on the "increased responsibilities of the church" in that part of its re port which refers to this diocese, dis tinctly expresses its opinion, that in such a case as ours, "the church is charged with obligations of duty to ex tend help." I am verv trulv vours. JOHN USBORXE. ORIENT BICYCLES. Major Taylor on his "Orient" made the world's record time for one mile in 1:31 4-5. He also holds numerous world's records at other distances. Or ient wheels are made by the Waltham Watch Co., and are the only bicycles in the world that are really "built like a watch," because built by people who BUILD WATCHES. The Honolulu Bi cycle Co., 209 Hotel street, Arlington Block, have an elegant line of the "Or ients," ranging in price from $30 to $S5. They are without any doubt the most elegant and perfect wheel ever seen in this market. tmmma - t lit if n The Emporium is one of the largest and by far the handsomest store in America.
