If American society is to remain strong
and stable, greater protection must be
extended to young girls, especially In
large cities. Thousands of girls are

other places. The amount of concupis

thoughtful and patriotic citizen. Illicit

the republic, a single impure girl. The

The American: Some time ago
I wrote your business manager that we
were organizing a W. A. P. A. council
at this place and asked for sample
copies of your paper for distribution.
We have a council of only eighteen
members as yet, but more are coming
in all the time, and we hope soon to be
able to do much good for the cause.
We are with you heart and soul In the
fight against Romanism, and we believe
that the present strike and all the con
sequent trouble is a deep-laid scheme of
the Jesuits and Roman Catholic offi
cials to blot out this order and all such
papers as dare expose any of their vile
purposes or doings.
This is growing to be the opinion of
Chinese, 14 Japanese and 322 Indians.
Of the 13,620 parents of tho white
prisoners 05,732 were native and 60,153
word foreign born, and the birthplaces
of 8,735 wore reported as unknown. If
the unknown be omitted, the percent
age of prisoners fijom the native ele
ment Is 43.19, and of the foreign ele
ment 56 81. That is, 14.77 per cent, of
the population furnishes 56.81 per cent,
of the criminals of this country. Or
9,249,547 foreigners give to tho jails,
workhouses and penitentiaries 56.81
per cent, of the entire criminal popula
tion. From tho same bulletin the total
number of paupers In alms houses is
stated to be 73,045; 66,578 whites, 6,418
negroes, 13 Chinese and 36 Indians.
Of the 133,156 parents of the white
paupers 45,215 were native, 63,587 were
foreign-born and 25,354 unknown as to
birthplace. Omitting the unknown, as
In the case of criminals, 41.56 per cent,
of th9 paupers were of mvtive and 58.44
per cent, of foreign birth. The deduc
tion is the same precisely as that which
was applied to the criminal class.
If account be taken only of the 105,885
parents whose nativity is known, then
43.19 per cent, of the crime committed
in the United States by white men and
women can ba charged to the native
white element of the entire population,

truth and of Catholio practical life. It
now remains with Individual Catholics
so to live and work as to realize in
daily life the teachings of tho church
and bring others to realize them.
Temperance work, courageous and con
tinuous, w.'U put the church in her true
light and, more perhaps than aught
else, will commend her to America.
The archbishop appealed for cc
operation to priests and lay people,
both men and women, but particularly
to priests, of whom there were a very
large number present in the cathedral.
The priests must be the leaders in the
warfare by word and example; the peo
ple will Burely follow them. In the
hands of the priests is the future of the
Catholiy church in America.
The annual report of Secretary Doyle
shows a tremendous increase of mem
bership during the year. Reference
was made to a recent letter of Bishop
WTatterson, referring to which Secre
tary Doyle says:
"This letter marks the progress of
temperance sentiment, and shows to
what height the rise of public opinion
has come. Temperance ideas and the
enactment of the legislative bodies of
the churches are moulding into laws

law as it is enacted marks the progress

Father Sherman Scores Allgeld.
Milwaukee, Wis., July 30. Rev.
Thomas Sherman, sun of the late Gen
eral Sherman, preached at the anni
versary services at St. John's cathedral
Sunday morning. Today is the forty
first anniversary of tho founding of the
congregation. Father Sherman took
as his subject, "The Visible Unity of
the Church." The necessity of unity
in religion, he said, was shown by its
necessity in civil government. He told
how cities were united under a mayor,
and the cities, collected together,
formed a state, which was united under
the administration of a governor, with
the president as the head over all.
This was analogous, he said, to the
organization of the church, with its
parish priests, bishopa, archbishops,
eto., and with tho supreme rulor as the
head of the wholo system. The neces
sity of being united under the highest
executive was illustrated by the recent
labor troubles in Chicago. Father
Sherman took occasion here mildly to
score Governor Altgeld for his action,
and to praise President Cleveland for
his prompt measures to suppress the
riots. The lesson lay In tho fact that
tho head of the government, with the
authority given him by a united peo
ple, was able to end the confusion, while
if the affair rested solely in the hands
of Governor Altgeld the city would
have been plunged into anarchy. This,
he said, taught the need of allegiance
to one head, who would be over all
other executives. The sermon was sug
gested, Father Sherman said, by the
pope's late encyclical on the necessity
of unity in religion, in which all were
invited, whether christian, infidel,
pagan, or Jew, to return to unity.
Leo XIII, in his encyclical of Janu
ary 10th, 1890, says: "It Is impetuou
indeed to break the laws of Jesus
Christ for. the purpose of obeying the
magistrate, or to transgress the laws of
the church under tho pretext of obey
ing the civil law;" and "If the laws are
hostile to the duties imposed by relig
ion, or violate in tho person of the sov
ereign pontiff the authority of Jesus
Christ, then Indeed it is a duty to resist
them and a crime to obey them."
