Mr. Editor: Aa I havo bocn asked,
"Did you write un insulting lottor to
tho Catholic priest?" will you give
UiIb space in Tho Tribuno that I may
explain why and what I wrote which
may vindicate tho honor of tho ono
that wrote mo and myself. Weeks
back tho Catholics held a mission In
their church and I received an Invita
tion to como every night. Tho writer
said he had read somo of my writings
upon tho Sabbath question, and he
would be pleased to havo me como to
their meetings. Tho note said that I
might ask any question and put It in
tho box. Now God choso this question:
"Can God convert tho Catholics and
non-Cnthollcs nnd Protestants of North
Platte so thoy will not help promoto
tho liquor business that makes 50 per
cont of our criminals? P. S. If It
would not be sacrillgious I would llko
to meet your people In your church
Sunday at 8 p. m. and show them a
cross that I mndo and tell you nil what
Inspired mo to mako it" Now Mr.
Editor, In ylow of the abovo question
can God or does God recognize that a
man is converted while ho is helping
to promoto such at damnable business
that makes 50 per cont of his follow
citizens criminals. Will any man's
money appease from such doings?
