A binve tnnn, Ignatius l,o)uU looked

"Kxerclses" comitlluto a mnnunl of
relelglous tactic by which the monanlic

fettered inspiration. In such an hour
you prayj then meditate; then weep,
etc, Admlrnble mechanism, In which
man I reduced t ) a pieco of clockwork
that can bo wound up nt will! Only,
ask nothing from him more than a
machine can produce Tho reverse of
animated organism, a machine Imparts
action, but yields no living production;
whereas, the first not only imparts ac
tion, but produce unlimited nnd organic
nature, resembling itself. Tho mechan
ism of tho Jemiiis has boon active and
powerful, but has produced no living
thing; It has failed to elicit that which,
in all communities, i the highest proof
of life It can show no great man. In
three hundred years, not one man!
What I the Jesuit' nature? Ho has
none. Ho I equally ready for all things.
Ho Is a machine, a mere Instrument to
be put In motion, without any individual
will. Tho machine ha It lawfatal
ity; jnwt a liberty is tho law of the soul.
How, then, can the Jesuit speak of
liberty P What have they to do with hcrP
Ye groat Intellects, who would blush
to attend to tho volco of tho people,
list to that of knowledge search,
study; and, after you bavo spent ten
year In studying the history and writ
ings of tho Jesuits, I will take It upon
mo to say that you will attach but one
meaning to tho whole Tho death of
Liberty. From lecture of Trof. M.J.

Protestantism has no prin
ciples or consistency. It was
the creation of a drunken,
thieving and lustful mob, and
consequently must always act
as the mob dictates.-Omaha
Roman Catholic Organ.
At tub Hufl'alo (Jerman-Amerlcan
Koman Catholic congress, September
ail, I8!l, Archbishop Katzcr, in the
course of a speech in German said:
"Ilcforo I am ft (lerman, bkkokk I m
i Am kick, I AM A Roman CATH
OLIC," That I stronger than tho re
mark made by John Hush In 1887.
TiiK Koman machine ha squealed.
It ha discovered that there are between
2,400 and 4,000 member of tho Amer
ican Protective association In thl city,
It figure aro about correct, but doe
ft know how many men sympathize
with tho movement who do not belong.
Auk you ft Protestant? Then please
tell u why it I right for tho Koman
Catholic to have their aecret wocletie,
composed entirely of Koman Catholics,
but wrong for Protestant to havo a o
cret society composed entirely of Protestant?
HO OS
The Human church tuMrr sipienU
until she U hurt. Whnt she U hurl
she will not stop to argue, but resort
to brute force. When she reports to
that mode of argument she convinces
even the thoughtless that U Is lime to
Imon the look out and when they begin
to watch, to weigh whnt is said, to note
tho acts of the combatants, Homo Is
always the looser. Her supply of ad
jectives, her expletives, her vile names
and senseless vlturperntlon when hulled
agalimt simh men as Hev. Harsha of
the Pirst Presbyterian church, Hev.
Hrown of Hanscom Park M. P.. church,
Krnest Stuth tho contractor, Hrecken-
ridge, Kller nnd Carr tho attorneys,
Munroo and Shaw tlio groccrymcn nnd
several thousand other men of equal
standing in this community and South
Omaha.; wo say, when they nro hurled
against such men, they net simply as a
boomerang. If Harsha, Hrown and
the othors named aro member of tho
American Protective Association then
tho aro hundreds of others who will be
only too anxious to join tholr forces
with tho men whom Homo slanders
when she says they are worse than tho
men who constituted tho ring of An
archist In Chicago and tho band of
desperadoes who comprised tho Koman
Catholic mafia of Now Orleans. Co
on, thou thing which John tho Itevol
ator saw! Go on, for thy day aro yet
a little while, and when thou thinkest
all Christendom Is bowing at thy feet
HI judgment will be rendered swift
and sure.
