As you have unlertaken Ihe t duty or giving me InCormaton , wIll you kindly answer for me the following ques- tons ? , First-Is the organization to which you refer a secret organization ? Are Its discus- sions In the face or day ? Do the persons , whose political errors they especially op- post have an opportunity to know their purposes and to be convinced by their aril- ments ? If the organization be I organizaton In any re- spect secret , why Is I deemed necessary to maintain such secrecy In the United , States or America and at the close or the nine- teenth century ? Second-Is It the custom or many persons who belong to I to deny , when required of , that they are members or such an assocIa- ton ? And I this be true , does such a falsehood cost 'hem the respect and frIend- ship or their associates or diminish their influence - fuence In the order ? Third-Do members or the association , after joining j I , retain their membership or other political parties ? ; )0 they agree together upon candidates for offices br delegates to conventions to nominate olcers and then go Into their party caucuses to support such delegatcs , agreed upon In secret , without ConsultatIon with theIr political lrethren ? I that be true , does It seem to you that course Is honest ? I'onrth-Do you understand that any considerable - silcrable number or Catholic laymen , In this country , accept the interpretation which you put upon the fifteen articles , which you quote a principles or the Roman Catholic Catholc church ? I I not true , that thaI luterllreta- ton Is absolutely rejected ly thc Catholic laity In general and that they afrm for themselves as absolute independence .ot the pope or or the clergy In all secular matters as you or I claim for ourselves In regard to Protestant clergymen ? Fifth-Are .101 Italy ant France , two Catholic countrIes today as absolutely free from any temporal power or influence of the sett pope ? or the Catholic clergy as I Massachu- Sixth-i have had sent me a little leaflet , purporting to be the principles or the American - can Protective associatIon , whIch you doubtless - less have seen When you say , In your third article , that the American Protective associa- ton ( Is opposed to lhe holding or ofcls In the national : , stale or munIcipal government by any subject or supporter or such ecclesIastical power ; and In your fIfth article , that you " "protest against the employment or the suh- jetts or any unamerlcan ecclesiastical power as ofcers or teachers of our public schools " do you mean or no thaI no Catholic shaH hold such national , state or munIcipal ofce shal , and that no Catholic shall be a teacher In a public school ? You don't answer this ques- ton by quoting the language or church 'les offIcIals In bygone days or the Intemperate language or some priests In recent times It Is a practical question . Do you or do you I not mean to exclude from such office and from such employment as teachers the bulk or the Catholic Population or Massachusetts ? Seventh-Is I your opinion thlt General Philip H. SherIdan , were he living , would be unfit to hold civil or military office In this country. ? Or that his dauhter. Ir she en tertalned the ( religIous belief of her father , should be disqualifIed from being a teacher In a public school ? !

The government does all It can to prevent snch importations. J has Its detectives on ; both shIes or the big pond , and the stewardesses - esses or the steam ! llps oren give tips to the Inspectors. There are female Inspectors at New York who sometimes meet these smug : glng maidens upon their lallng , 'hey may . have gotten a pointer on the other side , or the girls may have been too confiding In their talks wIth other people on the vessel. I they are suspected they are taken with thclr baggage Into a private room at the custom imouse. H the girl can not show that she I all rIght her wardrobe Is sometimes taken I from her. I ( lie Inspectresses are 'Jrety ' sure she Is a smugler they make her try on some or the clothes.
