POPE PIUS X.
Cardinal Sarto, the patriarch
of Venice, is the choice of the
cardinals' conclave to succeed
Pope Leo XIII, and he has as
sumed the potificate, taking the
title of Pius X. Pro in what can
be learned regarding the career
and characteristics of the new
pope, his selection appears to
have been an eminently wise one,
and it is extremely probable that
he will carry out the same policy
that was pursued by Leo XIII.
Cardinal Sarto enjoyed great
popularity in his diocese, and
has been honored by all for his
purity, for the straight upright
ness of his life, and for liberal
ideas. He is said to be a modest
and agreeable man, higaly culti
vated, very kind-hearted, and al
though 68 years of age, is strong
and robust and fully able to as
sume the heavy burdens of the
papacy. He has never taken any
great part in the political and
public life of the church, but
divided his time between study
and good works. Although most
faithful to the holy see he was on
very friendly terms with the
late King Humbert of Italy and
has enjoyed the esteem of the
present king and the Italian
government. Consequenty there
is not likely to be any serious
trouble between the Vatican and
quirinal while Pius lives. He
was considered among the more
liberal members of the Italian
episcopate and sacred college,
and it is said that Leo XIII al
ways thought very highly of
him.
The election of Cardinal Sarto
may be regarded as a defeat for
the Intransigents, chief among
whom stands Cardinal Rampolla,
who has been secretary of the
state for many years. Many re
garded Rampolla as the probable
successor of Leo. He has many
enthusiastic admirers, and also
many bitter enemies, his chief
-weakness lying in the fact that
he openly denounced the "triple
alliance" and therefore was not
acceptable to Germany, Italy or
Austria. But for his uncompro
ming attitude, he might have
succeeded in his ambition. The
interests of the ch urch, however,
may be better advanced by Sarto,
who is free from all political en
tanglements, and liberal in his
ideas. Pope Pius will undoubt
edly prove an able successor
Leo XIII. Dultith Evening
