We have It from a very reliable source that priests of the lloman Catholic church are buying there buttons and giving them to discreet members of their church with Instructions for them to profess to be members of the order and worm as much as possible out of unwary members. Newbdkai-kiui can obtain The Am Kit ican from any wholesale news dealer. Your customers will want it. Put it on your counter. Tub recommendations which Dr. Savllle made to the olty council lust night regarding a detention hospital in which to send doubtfnl cases and cases from the public station, are not only timely but absolutely neosary for the safety of the citizens of this great city. If the city council has a grain of com mon sense it will realize that Dr. Ha ville's suggestions should bo acted upon at once. Delays are always dan gerous. They may be doubly o at this time, Give us the relief he auks for. Thr Omaha judge who did not like "the stinger end of the Ike" and Jailed Its editor will wish he hsd not long be fore he gets through with It. Ills bide will rattle on the Jh.' back fence one of these days. Inter-Ocean. Our able contemporary may not bo ware of the fact that the people In this section and not the newspapers, retire Ioop1e holding official positions. Judge Hoott has not hurt himself po litically by calling Mr. Rosewater to a halt, because the people believe the talented editor has over-stepped the bounds of propriety, if not of the law, in dealing with men in official posi tions. THE World-Herald contained an ar ticle last Monday morning which set forth the outward alms and objects of the A. O. II. In mentioning the mili tary companies of the organization the writer says: "Many of the military companies have succeeded in giving its members thorough knowledge of military tac tics and discipline, and today their companies form a great factor in the Irish-American Military union of the United States, an organization com posed of Irishmen and men of Irish de cent" And yet sleepy Protestants say there is no need of alarm from Romanism.

No ono could dencrlbe the present situation bettor, in a lew words, than did Tom Watson, in an article headed, "The French Revolution a Precedent."

The peo ple were being persecuted by the laws and under the servility of foreign troops to keep the yoke around their neck. Tho liotlor senso of man can only toler ate this until the majority have become awakened to the danger and degrada tion, under which they are being placed, Today, In the United States, the majority of officers are placed under foreign or Roman control; our army and navy tho same, the police of our municipalities the same, and as a coo sequence the laws are becoming estranged to the purity of our constltu tlon. It Is pleasing to know that the country is awakening to its sense of duty and reports are coming to the front fnm every section announcing that the Americans are placing Amer leans on guard. Evrn with the upris ing of tho better x ople and its present good work it has scarcely begun to ful fill its obligations. Those who are in terested and who have not yet enlisted In the work should Join themselves with some patriotic order; alto, should thoho who are now enrolled exert them selves to the extremity of their power to push the work forward. No one should csxt aside the ability be has and rest on his oars slmp'y because the pre paratory work hus Issen accomplished in part in many places, all should in stead work with even that much more ardor. Ily constant work the poor peo ple can place men in office who will serve with Integrity and better the condition of tho now rotten governing power of the country. NOT AGAIN Si Til BUI JIEU010N When the devil gets mixed with his subjects in broils, the stew is apt to be come scorched. Tho Chicago Times uses its ungulded editorial buffoonry, trying to present the theories to the world that the American Protective Association would meddle with the religious factor of the Roman Catholic church. The Time slings a muddy editorial, which reads: "What with Bishop Ttonacum ar rayed against the priests of his parish and Mgr. Batolll threatening Arch- bishop Corrlgan with an appeal to the papal consistory it would appear that the Roman Catholic church in America has trouble enough on its hands at present without being subjected to any additional annoyances at the hands of the pestiferous A. F. A." ( , "This association does not care whit what the members of that rellgio polltlcal body stir up amongst them selves; neither does the A. P. A. fight them from ft religioua standpoint.

Why do we say thoro are thoe who glory in ft foreign flag? Because they rally around this standard in opposi tion to the wishes of the majority oi tho people, and on account of the per sistency in this devotion to a foreign flag when common sense should show them the .inconsistency of their posi tion. Then we may ask, according to tho language of the "street Arab," "Where aro we at?" How far aro we on the tho road toward dissolution whenwg see those foreign flogs flying in op. tlon to those who desire this wintry to bo an independent eountV.y"an,i no & foreign compound. K-te PleW mya "Did we not all corft from other coun tries?" Yes, MfL. Field. thU is verv true, tho An;'iel.,.an Indan included, but we,rt not au BgentH ()f tho dlJTer. p1k countries, trying to make this lund or a part of it, an annex to those coun tries or to any organization, tho head of which is in a foreign country. One of the indications of an attempt of this kind is the manifested insignia of those nations. Txt each person ask himself this question, "What consti tutes a traitor to any country?" We care not how free any nation may bo, It is proper, at any tltno, for this ques tion to bo' properly answered. It is proper for Uncle Sam to shake harTfls with the nations on tho other side of tho water wo will not mention tho or ganizations from which emanates the society which has been asked to excuse itself from almost every nation upon the face of the earth but It would be Inconsistent with good common soiiho, If, when Uncle Sam was having a friendly hi ndsbake with these nations, one of the most self-asserting fellows were to put a flag In his hat, the same a ft conductor marks his passengers so as to know where they are going, and expect Uncle Sam to wear it, as he is attending to the duties of tho nation which has been the envy of all peoples. "Where are we at?" STltlKINa VASES. The advice has been given the read er of this paper so often to patronize business men who advertise In this paper that It seems like ft waste of time to renew that request, yet at tho risk of wearying you we again take up that question. The opponents of this move ment never fall to spend their money with men whom they know to be per fectly sound on their side of tho ques tion. Then why should you bo less careful to patronize those men who have had the coursge to come out on the side you believe to be right? We have in our possession a communi cation from a prominent business man in Chicago wherein we are informed that the Romun Catholics of bis neigh borhood hod walked boldly into his place of business and informed him they would Institute a boycott on him if he did not prevent newsboys from selling the Chicago Amkrican on the corner In front of his store, and if his clerks persisted in buying said puper. Just how they expected him to go about the task of carrying out their demands is not quite clear, yet a man who has no control over the acts of elthor the newsboys or his clerks, except so far a their services concern his customers, is threatened with Roman Catholic dis pleasure. Another gentleman in this olty has informed us that he has been boycotted because ho had the nerve to say tho outrageous assaults on our newsboy was as damnable as it was un just and unlawful, yet in spite of all such case Americans flock into the itoros owned and operated by known enemies of the American orders and spend their money, never once think ing that a few doors farther down the street 1 an American who would highly appreciate their patronage, This is something for American to remember. When you have a cent to spend, spend it with those men who champion your cause or are member of Aitwtti . Unit. tVrnl trjtirr tlwm, a4 ftM tfc vmf glvln them Jwr trtls fcj vtwi.-. lHiy ftftd vt tb .

Wo have never known the Omaha lit to have any particular uho for tlio pmir lalmr ing man or his union except alsiut election time, and then its gieat heart fairly bleeds with pity for the wrongs they bear and tho privations they suf fer. However, as a matter of fact, the organization known as the A. P. A docs not take cognizance of labor un ions or capitalists. Neither are dis cussed or mentioned except when they benome the champion of the Roman Catholic church. Tho champions of the American order do not single out the K. of L. or speak of it collectively with other labor bodies in a oondomna tory manner as do the RcTCuin Catholic leaders of thoso orefs when referring to the A. P. A,,-' But their unfair tac tics will he ,,ncir own overthrow. Prot eBtan'wlll uonoor or later awaken to yYe fact that the church of Rome will use their organizations for the better ment of her subjects if opportunity pre sents itself, and when they realize chat they will not need any A. P. A. bugaboo to scare thom away from leaders of tho stripe of MtGulrc, Hajos, Powdorly Soveilgn, Debs, et al. From now on Protestant in labor unions must be treated fairly they must not bo sold out by their Roman Catholic associates, as was the cuso in tho Illinois Central strike of a few years ago. The priests must not order their men back to work and then hold tho corporations up for favors if they expect harmony in labor ranks. JUDGE ELLEIVS CASE. For several days the dally paper have contained sensational headlines concerning ex-County Judge Eller, Upon bolng asked for an expression re latlvo to the action of the county com mlssloncr upon bis report, the judge said: "It is not my desire, and I pre sume It is not the wish of the commls sloners to try the case In tho news papers." Tho fact are, a great deal of work has been done checking up bis accounts, and, we aro reliably Informed, hi accounts are correctly stated in his rejKirt, and tho report stands approved by the commissioners, so far as ac counts are concerned. Tho principal point In dispute, if we can correctly diagnose the case, la a difference of opinion as to the construc tion ol the law authorizing the employ' merit of help In the county judge' oRlce. The law provide that "the Judge of the county court mall be uj plied vWi the Iwlp nemmnifor the uh of mid ojjlce," and that "the salaries of Said clerks shall tie fixed, allowed and paid monthly by the county com missioners out of tho general fund of said county," The first year that Judge Eller filled the office the commissioners followed this law, The last year the commissioner, acting, as they undoubtedly believed they had a right to, under the law, did not pay tho clerk. Judge Eller pur sued the course he believed was lawful and just, and us ho believed his duty to be, presented in hi settlement his claim for clerk hire. The Judge does not criticize tho com missioner for their decision, and they will have none to offer for his taking an appeal from their decision. A WHINING FALSEHOOD. The St. Louis Jlrpublio drawls forth in an editorial strain a chlld-llko, please-don't-do-llr-defeat-us Roman Catholic stylo. The organs of the Vatican are coming to their broad and milk, Before the A. P. A. is done with Rome and hor press, they will force them to do more than write lies similar to the following, which ap peared in the above-mentioned puier: "Wo shall await with a dotrreo of In terest not unmixed with anxiety that plank In the Illinois ropubllcsn plat form of this year dealing with the A. P. A. This organization and its corol laries forced the Illinois republicans to the adoption of the Ed wards school law. It forced them to resist there peal of that law, It is now on record in Its state platform lately adopted at liloomington as demanding state in spection of private and parochial schools. It co-oieratod with the re publican party in the late municipal and town election in Illinois and gave that party it gains and victories in noarly every caso where there was ft distinct democratic Ions. Beyond ft doubt the democratic state convention which meets at Springfield June 27 will denounce this society and ita un-Americiui method in politic. Tfcellilftltt !...

Jtiwlhrr PidnM tUt In I he IVtw, Mr. ISxvl; llihp Hhth bat shown to you the firtvsslty of circulating the crlpturra, If younfieet ti eontinue as a church, It would U a very ginnl Idea for you to clrcuUte the sot iptiiri' by the thousands so that your nople will not believe m much that is con trary Ui script un and which you have retained of tho pagans, whom your church - lelied to conciliate and solicit their patronage. Hut If you Intend tho IsHly to tie a political organ I mat Ion, I would let tho ehuri'hns attend to the circulation of the scriptures and attend only to the management of tho polities of tho various countries. If your priests are asked whether your organization is a political machino or not they will answer that it is a church, and the mother of all churches. If you ask tome of our prominent) '''re-pullers" In the political circles, they will say It Is tho biggest political machino on earth. Many a man has mado his life miser able by trying to do too many things and when an organization attempts to bo a church and at tho same time bo the biggest "wire-puller" on earth, she will be very apt to fall in both things after a brief experience. So tell the nation that vou are the big Roman "wiie-puller" or stop tho polltl cal Bcheme and tend to your business as the manager of an organization you call a church, and when the Jesuits have pluublblo plans for political pur poses, toll them you are running tho business. And if they will persist In their obstinacy, then put them under the ban again, the same as they were for centuries. And if that will not "bring them to time," "lire 'cm." After the Jesuits are arranged for, then let the world Bee how a man can control a church. Do not bo afraid of investigation, do not boycott a family because they give a Douay Testament to a servant; do not kill a man because he translates the Bible into tho lan guage of tho people; do not say to the world, "Love one another, confound you," but win them by affection; do not tolerate prison convents which are not opened for Inspection; do not pro hibit marriage of clergy; but return to the purity of tho early church and at tempt to show what an efficient bishop you can bo intttoud of how deficient a bishop can be. Those suggestions are practical, pointed and pungent and can change the poverty of your environment to the position of a jmpular prelate. ALEI'It. Resolution.

Editor Ihk Ameiucan: Thooommentsof Dr. Scott F. Hershoy on "Papal Harvard" in last week's Amkhican aro timely and to the point. The American Alumni of "Fair" Harvard must have been pained to road of a Roman priest preaching to the faculty and students of their grand old Alma Mater. Now that we see Romanism is taught with in her saored precincts, that hor halls are open to Roman lecturers and that member of her board of overseers, en couraged by Pre.

ALUMNUS. How the Vatican Is Supported. Italy contributes only a small part of tho rovenuo 100,000 franc a year. The Romans show themselves in this regard loss generous than other Ital ians. On the other hand the Anglo- Saxon countries England, Ireland, Australia and tho United States begin to send important sums. If Catholi cism continues to grow in theso coun tries, it is easy to see that in time tho vaticun will draw considerable sums from thom. Again, there are the royal courts, such as that of Austria, which Bond annually rich presents to the pope. This Is even true of the prince of ancient Italian families. Francis II,, ox-king of Naples, and Maria Theresa, formerly grund duchess of Tuscany, never fall to Bond their offerings, which consist of sevoral thousands of francs. Tho Com to do ( 'hambord was accustomed to glvo annually 60,000 francs; the count of Paris sends the same sum. Tho expenses of tho Vatican amount annually to more than seven million francs. Tboy aro regulated as follows: For tho personal wants of tho jsipe, ono-half million francs; for tho cardinals, 700,000: for poor dlocoses. 400,000; administration of the Vatican, 1,800,000; secretary of state, ono hulf mlllllon; employes and ablegates, one and one-half millions; support of tbo schools and poor, 1,200,000. The car dlnuls at Rome live at the expenso of tho pope, Tho Income of each from this sourse is at least 22,000 francs. Tho secretary of state is charged with upholding relations with foreign gov ernment by tho mediation of uunclo. The four most important Paris, Vienna, Madrid and Lisbon each re ceive an allowance of 00,000 franca ft year. Tho lust Jublloe of Popo Leo XIII brought to the Vatican three mil lion francs. At the first, celebrated five years ago, twelve million franc were rocelvod. , The following letter wus received by Mr. James O.
