"THE AMERICAN
ROME-FAST AM l'UESLST,
I Today What Mie Has at tho Clox- tf
the Sixteenth IVnliirj.
The word Hume was once symbolical
of the mightiest iwer then dominant
on the fac of the earth the Hainan
empire. It waa the seat of jiower of an
educated and cultured nation, the
throne of all the C;rsars. Its name
ranked highest among the high, and
within tho stronj; walls of tho city were
the armed forces who caused the earth
to quake and nati jns to fall.
Iiome under a pagan power ruled the
world; under a papal power she strives
to hold tho same position, but thanks
to the A. 1 A. she is rapidly losing
ground. Today to speak of Home is to
Bjieak of an ecclesiastical hierarchy a
church so-called whose rule is tem
poral as well as spiritual.
Instead of the mighty phalanx of an
cient times, we behold a mo-ley assem
bly of cardinals, archbishops and
priests; instead of the iron coat-of-mail
we see a scapular; Instead of the shield
and spear the crucifix and beads. In
place of the senate hall in which Cicero
and Cato triumphed, the Vatican, built
and furnished by the life-blood of the
innocent dupes of popery, stands out,
and within its porticoes lives a sickly
prince,ruling many millions of ignorant,
blind-worshipping subjects.
Choose ye then between a Ciesar and
a Leo; choose between Home of the
past and Home of the present; choose
between open and secret warfare, be
tween the open field and the ambush;
death in an equal handed combat with
the sword and death by a treacherous
stiletto. Choose between intelligence
and ignorance, progress and retrogres
sion. And then tell me, which of the
two, in justice to posterity, you would
prefer.
Where are tho proud cohorts that
once conquered the world? And echo
answers "Where?" Gone with the
ages. In their place today stands a
pauper populace, a nation of vagabonds;
from a nation of heroes to a land of
organ-grinders and banana-peddlers.
O, Home, Home, how thou hast fallen!
The intelligence that throve under a
pagan power disappeared under the
papist. Under pagan rule Home tot
tered; under the papal power she fell.
"Where the thunderbolt had gleamed
a crucifix stood. On the shoulders of a
prelate was the purple that had dazzled
the world."
History repeats itself; as it was with
Home, so with Athens. Under a pagan
rule in Greece, art, literature and
philosophy reached their zenith.
Athens was the capital of the enlight
ened and cultivated world; the works
of her philosophers, scholars and ar
tists remain unassailed by modern
talent. But with the dawn of the papal
power all culture vanished all genius
was smothered or annihilated. From
a prosperous nation of intellectual
giants has come a race of weak-minded
slaves to the power of Home. Wha
was the cause of this appalling trans
formation? Home; not pagan Home,
but papal Home.
Instead of the reign of the illustrious
Caesar, the high consul of Homo, Italy
today exists under the reign of his un
holiness the pope, Leo XIII.; and in
stead of boasting of her ancient
temples, Home must bow her head in
shame and acknowledge a Vatican.
Scan then the pages of history, my
fellow-countrymen, and tell me, if you
can, that the Rome of today is prefer
able to the Rome of the past. Tell mo,
if you can, that the Roman Catholic
hierarchy is a church and not a politi
cal machine. Tell me, if you can, that
Home has not fettered with iron chains
the wheels of progress; that she has not
been the oppressor of liberty and the
enemy of religious freedom; that she
has not fostered immorality and crime
for centuries under the guise of religi
ous devotion. Tell me, if, in all human
probability, what she once has done
she will not do again if opportunity
offers. Who caused the expulsion of
Jews from Russia? Roman Catholics.
Who drove the Puritans from their
peaceful homes in England across the
broad Atlantic to seek new homes in
the wilds of savage America? Roman
Catholics. What law declares the
power of civil authorities subordinate
to that of ecclesiastics, and thereby
asserts its rule to be a temporal one?
Roman Catholic canon law. What
power nought to sustain the southern
rebellion and thereby to keep four mil
lions of souls in bondage? The Roman
Catholic hierarchy, through its ruler
in the Vatican. What authorities
teach that our public schools are edu
cators of atheism and "sinks of moral
iniquity?" Roman Catholic priebts
and prelates. What class have sought
to trail the stars and stripes in the dust
and hoist an Irish rag upon the flag
staff of honor? Roman Catholics.
Then, with a fair and impartial judg
ment, search once more the volumes of
the centuries gone by, and strange it
is, indeed, if you do not reach this con
clusion "Roman Catholicism is the
root of all national evil."
Italy had her inquisition, Austria
and Hungary their immoral convents,
within whose walls thousands of inno
cent persons were deliberately mur
dered; Ireland her countless rebellions,
civil wars and proverbial poverty.
Russia her czars and the boundless
Siberias, and France her Louis XVI.
and the massacre of St. Bartholomew.
And what is the result of j emitting
the tiger to go unchained? Look! From
Italy the MafUn, whoso cowardly knife
strikes In the silence and the darkness,
yet ceases nut in it works of vengeance.
From Austria and Hungary come the
scum of the present American popula
tion, and the embodiment of lawlessness
and ignorance.
Ireland produces the Clan-na-Gael,
H ibernians and Fenians, of whose char
acter and objects only too little is
known, yet enough to convince the
world of their treason to all uatious.
And from Russia we hear of the over
conspiring nihilist, whose ends are
murderous, yet no more despicable than
those of the Clan-na-Gael and similar
organizations.
And last comes France, giving to the
world the vicious anarchist, whose in
fernal instruments of destruction and
death carry universal terror in their
pathways. Upon the pages of her
national history are written in blood
the stories of countless revolutions and
insurrections; of the establishment of a
republic; of the overthrow of a repub
lic and its conversion into a second
monarchy; of the disastrous overthrow
of dynasty after dynasty; of the turbu
lent scones and ministerial crisis of
the present republic, and last, but not
least, she has quivered in the throes of
anarchy, upon the vertebrae of whose
advocates the knife of the guillotine is
already dulled.
And what is socialism what is an
archy? The fruit of Roman Catholic
ism.
But the half has never yet been told;
the further the matter is probed, the
more overwhelming truths come to
light. Yes, "Truth is stranger than
fiction." Believe what no one says, if
you wish, but investigate for yourself.
Rome is today what she was at the
close of the sixteenth century.

American Citizenship.
I was in early youth thoroughly
saturated with the idea that to be an
American citizen involved the right of
protection by the United States govern
ment throughout tho civilized world
and that if an American citizen should
be assaulted or deprived of his liberty
in any foreign land he had but to ap
peal to his government for protection,
his case would be at once inquired into,
and if found guilty of no crime against
tho laws of tho land in which he so
journed his release would be at once
demanded, backed up with the military
of the United States.
The case of Rev. Justus Nelson, a
citizen of the United States, imprisoned
in Para, Brazil, for the simple reason
that he was convicted of preaching and
publishing in his church paper that
the worship of Mary Is idolatiy, ought
rouse this Protestant nation from sea to
sea.
The Protestant religious press should
not be weak-kneed in insisting that
American Protestants shall be pro
tected in life, liberty and pursuit of
happiness at home or abroad. Aside
from an appeal by Bishop Foss, I have
seen nothing of any attempt to bring
the case of Justus II. Nelson to the at
tention of our government.
It seems to be that the entire board
of bishops backed by the officers of the
Missionary Society and the church at
large supplemented by every Protestant
organization in the country should
unite in demanding the attention of the
government to this case and the im
mediate release of this American citi
zen from a foreign prison.
It appears to me that our papers
should teem with appeals to the pub
lic, uutil Protestantism is aroused. If
some American should be imprisoned
in Brazil or Chili for disturbing the
peace in a drunken row or street brawl
the patriotic (?) public press would at
once be all ablaze with patriotic indig
nation and the government would be
forced at once to protect the rights of
American citizens and the president
would perhaps send a special message
to congress and the navy department
would get ready for the invasion of
foreign ports
But when a modern Paul, preaching
the gospel of Jesus Christ in its sim
plicity is imprisoned in a foreign land
his appeal as an American citizen is of
no avail; the Jesuitical hood blinds the
department of state and silences the
public press. Where are our mission
ary secretaries and church officials?
On to Washington ye leaders of Protes
tant forces and in the name of our God
given American liberty, which of ne
cessity denounces popery as the enemy
of our freedom, compel by your earnest
ness tho attention of our government in
the case of Brother Nelson.
Rev. Jesse W. Jennings'.
Not Forgotten.
Mr. Pecci: Of course you are aware
by this time that wc are having trouble
with Mr. Debs and his associates. I do
not know whether you are acquainted
witQ Mr. Debs or Mr. Sovereign or not,
but at the present time they are men
of prominence here. Their names are
frequently in the daily papers without
paying advertising rates. These men
have their friends and their enemies
here, and some of the people can talk
ot nothing else than the work these
men are doing. But I wish to call your
attention to one thing, and that is, if
the strike continues and if there is war
here, 1 will not forget you. You must
not let that worry you one moment. I
will never forget you, and to the iH'st
of my ability I will ever have you mind
ful of tho fact by my leturs etc., that
t here is one jierbon at least in this coun
try who Is aware that you exist, that
you have a purpose in life, and that it
is my duty to you, as a friend, to point
out some of the pits which you might
fall into and try to help you out of some
you have either fallen into or some one
has put you into.
No, I'll not forget you, l'ecci! The
cyclones may tear, tho wolves may
howl and the owls may hoot, but
nothing will deter mo fi-om my debt to
tho little old man on iho Tiler. Of
course I do not mean ly that, that 1
will pray for you after j ou arc dead. I
do not take any stock in that nonsense.
I will let some one else run that
machine if they wish, but I will do my
my little work while some one is grind
ing at the mill, even if that grinding is
low.
By tho way, what is your opinion of
your temporal power scheme? Have
you ever regretted the Jesuits were
given their full power back agaia? 1
am not referring to how they obtained
it, but what do you think of the work
they have done since their full restora
tion? 1 have often thought of your
rituation in regard to them. They
think they have a mortgage on earth
and heaven, but there is no man or set
of men so smart but that they at some
time found their match. You just "put
that in your pipe and smoke it." If
some one will put their big foot square
UKn those fellows I am sure it will
make you think you ought to smile, and
it will bo done. They have not treated
you right and I believe lu giving the
devil his dues, and if for no other
reason I would be glud to see some one
go to them tho same as a man goes to a
dog that is barking too much and say,
"Go and lie down."
No, l'ecci, I'll not forget you; I'll
write soon again. In the meantime do
not let these jays get you into trouble.
(jood bye, dear l'ecci, good bye,,
I'll write soon iiKiiln. so dou't cry.
The juys are bud men.
Hut 1 hope you will win,
Good bye, dear l'ecci, good bye.

"WHO WAS CHKISTJ"
A Reply to a (Jiiestimi by a Koman Catho
lic Lady.
I have been asked this question,
"Who was Christ?" and If I cannot
answer it satisfactorily, I can at least
do the best I know how. Now, it Is a
lady that asks the question and I should
bo ungentlemanly not to offer the best
answer I can. Remember, I do not seek
tho question the question sought me.
I may further remark, that when a
year ago I was asked the same question,
I artfully dodged an answer, but playing
the artful dodger was played out this
time, for we all know the proverbial
stick-too-it-ativencss of aa American
woman, especially, if she has the slight
est idea she has you where you have
pot to come down. However I am going
to do a little dodging now, I am going
to offer Lactantius, a very able writer,
who wrote about 28(i A. I)., he was born
in Italy, educated at Sicca in Africa,
was a teacher of rhetoric under Diocle
tian at Nicomodia in Bithnia, and after
ward tutor to Crispus a son of Constan
tine the Great, and died in 312 at Tieves
in Gaul. Before quoting from tnis justly
celebrated author of tne "Divine Insti
tutes". I beg to say that heathenism
with all its Gods and goddesses, took its
rise and form, not earlier than 1000 B.
C, in other words the age of mythology
commenced about 1000 B. C, 7"(i years
after tho Mason's had built the great
Pyramid, if we call to mind, then, that
"a Myth is tho shadow of a substance,'"
we can readily see that tho Science
Truths, of the Bible had become lust to
public view, and all that remained of
them to demonstrate that they had
ever been known, was the "Myth",ancl
a myth is a condensed though obscure
intellectual truth". The learning of
the authors of Greece and Rome had
become mythical; we even now say:
"The Myths of Greece and Home".
Now asking a question presupposes
the courtesy to hear the answer, you
need not believe the answer.it may not
be worth believing, but courtesy requi
res you to hear it, and it may be this is
the only satisfaction there will bo in
giving tho answer; I may bo in the
position of the famous orator dragged
before the Athenians, when he told
them "God hath made of one blood all
nations of men to dwell on all the face
of theearth",it was an unpleasant truth
to the learned Athenian, Ingersols and
Donnellys,and it is said butfew believed,
though none could deny, and some of
the latter got angry. This orator further
said: "In whom we live and move and
have our being." of course this oration
is just as true to us, if it was then true,
as itwas to the most learned Athenians,
at that time considered the most learn
ed In all the world. Greece died because
its learning could not keep it alive.
Then the Bible literature is older
than Greece or Rome, or the Gods of
Greece and Rjme; in fact the myths of
the Gods of Greece and Rome, Chaldea
and Phu'necia, and even F.gypt itself,
were the shadows of substances or truths
of an older learning, and as we have no
evidence of any other learning,it must
be the Bible it.elf:we win prove this:in
1520 B. C, it had been calculated 1520
years beifore that the Sun and Moon
would occupy, or stand to come Into
place in such and such a position to
each other, as the story of Jehua
vouches; this record sets at naught all
the assumed original learning of Grcoiv
and Rome on the subject of astronomy,
and demons' rates the earlier and most
profound learning of tho Bible. It dem
onstrates that
The Bible learning is thoroughly
acquainted with the laws of the unl-
vere:vi:(l)The attraction of gravita
tion, (2)The rotation and revolution (of
orlw in space), and (3)light or electricity;
tluse laws "hi whom wu live (attraction
of gravitation) and move (revolution)
and have our being (light or electricity );
I hose laws, the works of the Creator of
the Universe; these laws are tho same
yesterday, Unlay, and forever; so that
the Bible learning is a record of the
discovery, description, and operation,
of these laws of the universe as applied
to the bodies in space. To dnscrinetle
laws,individuality wasascriU'd to each,
viz: The attraction of gravitation was
called "man." The revolution was
calked "Theson of man." And light or
electricity was called "Tho great
spirit."
Toconsldera moment: when tho at
traction of gravitation began, that mo
ment, the revolution In'gan, and from
thence Instantly came light or elec
tricity, a natural result of motion in
space. These are the "mysteries" of the
ancients, the Invisible, except to reason
and intelligence. On these "throe"
"hang all the law and tho prophets:"
and Lactantius, says: "Therefore the
holy spirit of God dese'ondod from
heaven (space?) choso the holy virgin
(att gr.?) that lie might enter into her
womb (time?) ("so inslnuaret".) But
she being filled by tho possession (rev
olution?) of tho divine spirit (light?).
"Therefore God Himself shall give you
a sign. Behold, a virgin (att.gr.?) shall
conceive and bear a son (revolution?)
and she shall call his name Emmanuel."
"But Ho was never called Emmanuel
but Jesus, who In Latin is called saving
or Saviour." (salutaris sive salvator),
"Christ is not a proper name but a title
of ower and dominion." "God thero
fore,the contriver and founder of all
things before hecommenced this excel
lent work of the world begat a pure and
incorruptible spirit whom He called
His Son," These quotations will help
to explain the passage. "In tho Image
of God created He man."
Permit me to call to your kindly atten
tlon,that though tho learning of the
Bible holds to their being four systems
abnut a centre yet tho fortieth chapter
of Joshua is clearly a description of tho
"solhr system," and its "cosn.os:" It
contains 700 words,27,'l are used more
than once, leaving !H7 original worJs.

Majors on the Strike.
Lieutenant Governor Tom Majors
was detained at the Burlington & Mis
souri River depot for a short time yes
terday afternoon awaiting tho train
which should convey him lo his home
in Pern. Tom is always popular and
he never fails to collect a little, com
pany of auditors alxnit him whenever
he is not otherwise enyage d. La.-t
evening the chief topic for discussion
was the great strike, and as we may
suppose he had an opinion to express.
It was delivered off-hand in the course
of his conversat ion, and the Press repre
sentative stole it for the benefit of its
readers:
"The thing which impressed me most
as I read the account of the, rioting in
the morning papers," began the gov
ernor, 'was the. description of that
great mob of 0,000 people moving down
the tra;ks in a body and carrying de
struction and ruin with them, burning
property wherever they found it, and
yet the authorities seemed powerless to
check iu And this mob, these lawless
advocates of the cause of laiHir, are
Hungarians, Italians, Poles, all foreign
ers, who know nothing about the con
ditions of labor in this country, and
what is for its lcst good.
"I tell you this is the great danger to
this country this foreign element
which we have allowed to come into
the country, have been urged to cotne:
and the moment they landed at Castle
Garden we have shoved a certificate of
citizenship at them. And now they
are citizens wit h the same right to vote
as you or I have, although they are not
in sympathy with our national syste m.
nnd knowing nothing at all of the- prin
ciples of popular government. Many ot
them left European countries because
they would not submit to law and order
there, and when they came here they
imagined they were to eseaie both.
"Never mind how these1 people hap
IeneJ to get into this country. It is
enough that they are) horn to make
trouble. We have boon ho anxious to
develop this great land and so utimiud
ful of our Uliertli'H, and the necessity of
bulwarking them with an honest citi
zenship, that wo have taken in every
wretch who came to our shore. The
coi-H)rations, who have Us n importing
cheap lalsir, ar partly to blame, bi
we are) all deserving of evusure for not
putting a stop to tho prm-llco limp
