Nolwllhslnnding‘ his high office, His Eminence was one | of the most democratic of Americans, During dally walks about the city, he received the respectful salutations of { persons of all faiths, respanding with PWhis genial and cordial smile whether Ito . a policeman or a distinguished financier. . Cerdinal Gibbons retained to the last a keen interest on soclalogy. * “We are confronted by at least 3 great evils,” he sald in a regent inter- view. “They are polygamy and di- vorce; inperfect education; and the tendency of our women to become more like men and less womanly. Woman occupies the thronme in the homt. She could not seek another one That has been proved time and again e | In history and that is why I am op- posed to woman suffrage.” Saw Power of Press The trend of the times and the power of the press ks a protector of soclety greatly impressed Cardinal Gibbons during the last years of his life. “Thla power of the press is mcal- cuable,” he said in speaking of recent ‘developments. “Its argus, almost P | searchlight eye, is ever looking for Y | the weak spot in humanity, to throw it Into cold prominence. As a rule the public exposures of public men are f now public benefactions. The shatter- pg of popular idols has of late be- ‘v me a thing of almost daily occur- ence.
