French Ministry Crisis and Roman Church

The French ministry is said to be in jeopardy because of the scandals which have arisen over the expulsion of the Carthusian monks. Charges of attempted bribery are made on both sides, but whether the monks endeavored to bribe or members of the government desired to be bribed, the whole cause of the trouble lies at the feet of the Roman Church. Its priests should be engaged in better business than making intoxicating wine, from which they derive a profit, it is said, of a million dollars a year.
