Every rvaJor of h!isUry niuat kno
that the KoniUh hierarchy ha boon In
ths buslm of murdering Protestant
with a!l H mltbt for moro than l.fifO
yrara art The rutins carver of thU
glyantic and dUNilUal organization
from It very hidi'loncy lia own
market! -Uh blood aud carnage.
Conctantints Ha founder, away luek
in 300 was a illatn of the tilackcnt
ty , guilty of many foul tuurdora. Of
cnunxt, I am primming that tho bier
arvhy ha not ono scintilla of true
Christianity In It composition, blnjr
merely an aggravated and diKuittod
form of ancient paganlmn. I do not
mean, then, that Constantlne wan the
founder of a christian church, but of
thii pagan organization under the
guhie of Christianity.
Th aplrlt of the founder of any or
ganization alwaya remain, inherea In
and animates that organization and
hapc ita ixliey throughout lu entire
exicUwo. Take for example tho great
organization known aa tho United
Statoa. It wa organized In the spirit
of liberty. This wan the niilrlt of all
1U founders, and this spirit still live
and dominate ia every part of our
'nation, just as the spirit of Constantino,
the murderer, still lives and dominates
In every part of tho Roman Catholic
hierarchy down to this very day.
iStrojMT ttukm, always tho same, may
bo wild, not only of Romanism, but of
every other human society. A band of
robbers and cut-throat will always
possess the spirit of robbery and
murder. It ntyy be destroyed, but it
cannot bo radically changed. So tho
Romish hierarchy may bo destroyed,
but so long as It exists it will bo mnijtcr
tiuhnu
Ilere and there artful men, like
Archbishop Ireland and Cardinal Gib
bona, may arise, and by skillful manip
ulation of language may appear to favor
liberty, and deceive the people; but tho
real spirit of Romanism can no more
change than a leopard can change his
spots. Rome has shown it usual ac
tivity In these latter year In it life
work. The Roman pontiflx cannot now
levy regular war against the Protestant
nations, and butcher and torture by the
wholesale; but he can murder his most
prominent enemies ono by one as oppor
tunity presents itsolf.
Among the victims of recent years
we may mention Abraham Lincoln,
James A. Garfield, Carter Harrison,
Carnot, the attempt on Crlspl, and the
murder of one of the soldiers of the
famou Garibaldi, who waa known to
bo unfriendly to the Vatican. All the
leaders of the recent riots are Roman
istsDebs, Sovereign. President Dwyor
at Cairo, Thomas O'Rourke at Mil
waukee, James Murvln at Chicago,
George P. Kern at St. Louis, Strike
Manager Chelan at Cincinnati, Alex
ander Shields at Hammond, Sun to, tho
murderer of President Carnot, at Mar
sell lea, Prance; Valllant, who threw
the murderous bomb Into the French
assembly at Parle; Piendergast, at
Chlcsgo, are all fal'bful servants of the
pope!
How lorg before the American peo
ple will begin to put 2 and 2 together?
How long before they will leatn that
Romanism Is a veritable devils den, out
of which Issues every species of plague,
every pest of humanity, and every
curse of the earth.
In my history of the "Massacre of SU
Bartholomew" I have shown that the
Roman Catholics engaged In thatdread
ful butchery of Protestants, wore a
white badge to distinguish themselves
from the Protestants. Now, I find that
the rioters and strikers In Chicago
adopted the sume budge a white rib
bon! Istt It a curious coincidence?

MIST PAY TAXES.
ArcuhMtep's Residence Property De
cided Sot Exempt.
Milwaukee, Wis., July 27. At the
meeting of the board of review today
Rev. F X, Katzer, archbishop of Uv?
archdiocese that includes Wisconsin
and northern Michigan, was called up
on to explain by what right a block of
property on Chet-tnut street between
Twenty third and Twenty fourth streets
occupied by him as a dwelling house,
was not taxed.
The board decided to leave the as
sessment of Archbishop Katzer's as it
was, which means that the house and
all it contains, together with the lots,
is to be taxed with nothing exempt.

Bttt.ttth, Minn., Aug. 2. The re
publican party hereabouts has placed
itself in a very "bad boat." They have
nominated Chas. A. Towne for congress
and also placed a Rcmasist on their
ticket for state legislature. They are
after the church of Rome for votes.
Bishop Megolerick'a Korthtcestern Wit
ness is after Towne's scalp and the A.
P. A. will not support him unless he
makes a stand for Americanism pure
and simple.
The democrats have denounced the
A. P. A. and they are "out of the race."
There Is a strong movement on foot
leaning to the formation of a new party
to be named The American Reform
Tarty. A convention is seriously talked
of. Should the new party be landed
intorxIsU-nce It will include the A. P.
A.. Ioval Orange lx)gi, Jr. O. U. A.
M. and P. O. S. of A. Th!r motto
will be "America for Americans."
Neither of the old parties have back
bone enough to deal with the questions
directly. They are both bound to cor
poration and Rome, htneea new party
is riecewary. It will come and prob
ably in time to decide the coming elec
tions. Your correspondent will keep
you fully advised. Zenith.
Pertinent wMlou.
Editor The Amkhr'an: Asa person
deeply Interested In the welfare of the
young ladle who are left destitute I
desire to use your pacr as a medium
through which the Protestant public
may be reached. First, I desire to
use two extracts from the Kansas City
dally papers, which apH-arcd some
time ago, to illustrate the situation.
From one Kansas City daily we take
the following:
"Willi you kindly answer the follow
ing ouesUon concerning the Kansas
City Humane Society: Why are little
f:irls arrested, and, without trial, put
nto the Hons) of tho Good Shepherd?
itoys have trial and the full benefit of
the law. Girls ought to have the bene
fit of a doubt. Is not this state of
things inhuman? Can a father who
docs not sumxM't bis family take from
tho mother tier dang hter, the only help
In tho supiort of her family, put her
In any Institution without first prefer
inir charge and proving them by pro-
ccssoflaw? Recent trials, In this and
other cities, concerning cruelty to chil
dren, especially girls, and tho Inhuman
treatment of mother in said catc,navo
prompted the asking of this publica
tion, and by publishing the same you
will greatly oblige mothers, taxpayers
and the peaou-iovlng and humane
public?"
Again, note the following:
"Humane Officer Marran yesterday
took Lizzie llothol, the 14 year-old
daughter of John M. Bethel to the in-
inilustruil school for girls at lhim-
cothe. This Is a state institution, and
though it has been in existence for
thiee years, Lizzie Bethel la tho first .
girl who has ever boon sent there from
Jackson county. The incorrigible girls
In Jackson county are usually sent to
the House of the Good Shepherd, in
this city."
The Chillicothe Home for girls is a
state Institution, costing .')0,(h)0, and
has a graded school. Music, paining,
sewing, dross-making and cooking are
taught in all their different branches.
Girls are clothed, boarded and educated
for $75 per year. Boys at the Boon
vlllo reform school at the cost of $120.00
per annum. The Chillicothe home is
non-sectarian, and has no bars or bolted
doors. If any of the above facta will be
of use to the friend of humanity, use
them. X.

Ilcsing and Koliglous Proscription.
Chicago, July 25, 1804. Editor The
American: It will be remembered
that not long ago the postmaster of
Chicago, Mr. Hosing, filled several
columns of a Chicago journal with a
rabid diatribe against tho A. P. A.
and denounced in furious terms what
he called "religious proscription."
Well to Illustrate probably the super
iority of his Roman Catholic soul to
anything like religion in politics he
furnishes to the world this beautiful
example. Tho reorganization of postal
atTalrs in Chicago July 1st, furnlshrd
Heslng the opportunity in Ravenswood.
Notice the process: B. F. Weber, a
Roman Catholic, asks Ilesing, another
Roman Catholic, to put Daleiden, a
Roman Catholic, in charge of the
Ravenswood postofflce in the place of
Ross, a Protestant. Ilesing complies
most cheerfully and accompanies this
act of religious proscription with in
sulting inuendos about the fanaticism
of the Protes'ant community of Ravens
wood, especially because the people
there objoct to having a Roman Catho
lic saloonkccpor for postal superinten
dent. He also publishes in connection
the assertion that he left the republi
can party because there were so many
temperance people in it, avowing what
was generally known before, that he
has no political principles or convic
tions which he does not subordinate to
the question of beer. He is on the side
of beer. His political platform is beer
and Roman Catholicism. L. A. W.
Resolutions.
Whereas, It is the custom of all de
liberative bodics,in session Bssembied,to
express their views in a formal manner
upon matters of interest to them, and in
some way set forth the obligations un
der which they have been placed, there
fore be it
Resolved: That we the teachers of
Douglas county in Institute assembled

are due the Board of Education of
Omaha, through whoso kindness we

the thanks of the teachers.
Resolved: That we recognize in Prof J
G. W. Hill, a worthy and efficient Sup

our congratulations for bringing to a
successful issue the greatest Institute
ever held in the county.
Resolved: That we extend to the
instructors, Mrs. I. R. Notson, Miss

A I It EH; HI OX WILL.
.Int. Shell.) 'i Objection t ISeqiittit t the
Human Catholic ( burrh tioes Over.
The will content cane has boen again
pasMsl, and the question must conse
quently remain undecided for some time
to come, whether a goodly share of the
late Jueeph Creighton's estate shall be
ud by the Catholic bishop of Omaha,
lit Rev. Richard Scannell, In the con
struction of an orphanage. The case,
which was set for hearing yesterday
has boen continued until August 6,
when Judge Baxter exccta to give the
parties a hearing.
Thlscae ba had a singular history
from the start. January 20, last, Mary
R. SI elby, Joseph Creighton' only
daughter and sole beir at law, had her
self appoint d eiiccial administrator U
look after the presumed f"7,0X of
realty and $4,000 of personal estate.
Matters ran along until May 22, when
Mr. Shelby stepped into court and de
sired to have the will probated. Noth
ing was done for some weeks. Then,
on Juno 15, Joseph Creighton' daugh
ter made a formal withdrawal of her
petition to have her father' will pro
bated, giving notice to the court that
she would decide later on what course
to pursue. She recently reached a de
cision and has filed a paper setting up
grounds f r having tho will set aside,
principal among which are incompe
tency, unduo influence and indefinite
noss in the provisions of the paper.
This last allegation is a thrust at the
provision in Joseph Creighton's will
wherein, after providing for his daugh
ter by leaving her lots 8 and 2 in block
22, a bequest is made to Rt. Rev. James
O'Connor, bishop of Omaha, or his suc
cessor in office. As Bishop Scannoll is
tho successor to the bishopric he has
been made a party to tho case. The
lands given to the church are the
southwest one-fourth of section 35 and
the northwest one-fourth of the north
west one-fourth of section 2 and lot 4
of section 35 and the east one-half of
tho northwest one-fourth of section 20,
township 80. The will provides that it
is tho wish and desire ot Joseph Creigh
ton that such lands and their proceeds
rball bo used for some charity, accord
ing to the bishop's judgment, but it Is
preferred that it be applied toward the
establishment of some orphanage. The
residue of the (State goes to the grand
children, four in number, to be held in
trust by Mrs. Shelby for their use.
This Is the will, Mrs. Shelby, the
daughter, contests.
The Omaha Ike hp.s slipped a cog
and on Friday evening of last week
gave axpneslon editor'ally to the fol
lowing: If Mr. Vilas is to be be believed
America at no distant day will be
blessed with a new patron saint duly
cannonized by the holy pontiff. His
name will be Saint Grovtr. P. S.
For patron saint, read patronage taint.
This admission by the Bee that the
Romish church is a political organiza
tion Is the first we have noted, and how
aimle.-sly he states that Saint Grover
should bo followed by a P. S. when he
clearly understands that it is chiming
In harmony with the saints who wear
the S. J. that would entitle him to any
olllcial distinction at the hands of his
great preceptor on the Tiber.

lie Tried Mrs. Surratt.
Washington, D. C, Aug. 1. Judge
Joseph Holt died at his residence here
today. His death was due directly to a
fall sustained a few days ago, to which
he paid little or no attention. Judge
Holt was in good health for a man of
his extreme years until a few days ago,
when he suffered a slight shock to his
nervous system by a mistep while de
scending a stairway in his houso. Since
then he sank rapidly. He had a long
and distinguished career but is chiefly
remembered for his participation as
judge advocate in the courtmartial
which tried Mrs. Surratt and other con
spirators executed for the assassination
of President Lincoln. He was born in
Breckinridge county. Kentucky, Jan.,
1807, and consequently was in his 88th
year. As a lawyer and as a democratic
orator in early life he was very con
spicuous and participated in events of
national consequence.
Rome Must Disgorge.
New Yokk, July 28.-The judgment
which Mary T. Upington obtained last
January, ejecting Michael Corrigan,
"archbishop," from two lots on 15ith
street, New York, has been affirmed by
the supreme court, general term. She
Is the wl e of George P. Upington, for
merly a lottery and policy dealer.
Mary McDonough Davy gave a deed of
the property to "Archbishop" Hughes
in 1862, with the condition that it
should be consecrated and a church
erected within a reasonable time. This
condition, it is held, was not complied
with. Mrs. Upington sued as an heir-at-law
of the testatrix The property
is said to be worth $00,000. ' The only
other heir i Louis J. Pooler, who has
a half interest. He would not sue, and
wa9 made a defendant, but he will get
hi share.
