He li in every wnne Republican; be ba ben Identified with Nebrnokn and the advancement of the inUrcU of Nebraska during the life of tho tus. No'MHly h ever dountod that Tom Majors would tand up for Nebrapka. No vUlifier can blacken hl character. He ha lnen 'bclore tho people of Nebraska Tor m long a time in a public capacity that they know him. It will be wanted effort on the jart of the pie-bald editor of the Bit to tradings him. The repub licans of Nebraska love Tom Major. II it friend are legion and they are all hade of political opinion, and exist in sufficient numbers to elect him to the office of governor deplto the frantic mouthing of tho little Omaha jona. Ivottewater never would abide by the judgment of a Republican convention. The last one spoke In thunder tones, and although tho echo answered Majors, yet this conceited little imp presumes to dictate to the rank and file of the party. The He publican of Ne braska are intelligent, they and each of them understand Honey's antagonism to Major, and in the exercise of the elective franchise will be guided only by their own judgement. And when the elector of Nebraska will have spoken next November, their cry will reverberate from this far western county to Douglas, and from there throughout tho entire state, and the people must not wonder if Honey, upon hearing that same cry of Major, be seen running from the fortress of the Jkt to hide himself beneath tho cooling but muddy waters of the Missouri. Sidney Telegraph. HORDS OF WARMNO For Patriotic American to Read and Re flect Tpon. t LaFayette said: "If anything dis turb your liberty, look out for the miserable band of the Jesuits." The black pope, Loyola, was born in 1401 and be founded the secret order of the Jesuits; while the black pope of today is a despot in Spain, a tory in England, a republican In Paraguay and vile enomy seeking to destroy our noble institution in America; he seeks to destroy the good he may find in the nations into which he crawls, covered with the slime of hi vices and crimes of the dark ages, whose aim is to rule Or ruin. When the Jesuits attacked Spain, she was the banker of the world to day she is the beggar of nations. Vhen they entered Italy, she was the artist and scholar of the world to day she is among the lowest of nations. When they first found Ireland, Bhe was the school mistress of the world today she is a tramp among nations. t When they found the United States, she was the haven of purity and the home of freedom and prayer today the stand with the curse of Jesuitism stamped upon her. When our beloved flag was flung to the breeze at the opening of the world' fair, was it not placed between the em blems of the two mwt popish nations on the face of the earth? and just a little lower than thoy? Thereby typical of , the crucifixion of our Lord on Calvary. Patriotic Americans, stand for lib erty and our glorious country. If cruci fied we must be, let it only come when true American blood can no longer flow through the veins of this our beloved country. Remember, Rome has long since boasted that "America will be the battle-ground of the whole world, and Roman Cathollo institutions will be erected over. Protestant graves. Think, yea think serious and soberly. God bless the emblem of this land, And save our glorious natlou From the evil hand of Jesuits, Stamped on her destination. In every country where they rule. They cause Its degradation, With priests and spies there underlies The curse of condemnal Ion. Pope Leo and his Jesuits, They call on all creation. To combine and take America, And destroy our Christian nation. Where 'eer they can a foot-hold gain, Through wealth, or secret planning. The ship of state ou either hand With anarchists they're manning. Tbt legions of the holy (?) cross Are armed and drilled for action, A force twelve hundred thousand strong For the pope, commands attention. Ye noble sons of freedom's soil. Beware of the cune upon us. Lest, some future day, our nation lay, Before Pope Leo, bleeding, dying. An American. Injunction Still Holds. Judge Scott decided in regard to the Injunction case of John Kowalewski and others of the St. Paul's Catholic church against Bishop Scannell and others that the temporary injunction shall stand until the hearing of the case for a permanent injunction. The court said it would hear the whole case upon testimony yet this term, In the mean time allowing the temporary injunction to remain in force and compelling the giving of a $500 bond. This ends the fight made by the peo ple of the parish on their bishop for 6ome time. Everything practically re mains in sta'u quo. The Kowalewski faction retains possession of the church edifice, as It has been doing since th Sunday morning member picked the lock and gained entrance to it The renewal of the defective mort gage, which the faction supporting the action of the bishop declare in con. science a just debt, is tied up until a decision on the final hearing of the case. AM om l.ETTKK To F. ltowwutcr From the Lincoln Call. Dear Sir Undeterred by the fact that you have not seen fit to- answer our numerous open letters addressed to you, we persevere, and now desire to proound a few questions to you. I It not a fact that you,' whose pallid and be-fotted virtues you would have us admire, you who have expressed such righteous indignation at the ras cally operations of one C. W. Mother, now a convict in the federal peniten tiary at Sioux Falls, S. I)., assisted this great rascal In hi manipulations? Is it not a fact that you received contri butions in money from Mosher when his penitentiary contract was under fire, and hasn't Mosher in his possession certain checks payable to your order that have a sinister significance? Is it not a fact that you, the self-appointed priest of picturesque purity, on the eve of tho Republican state convention held in this city two years ago, went into a deal with this great rascal Mosher, whom you abhor, now that he is in the pen, and a certain railroad official, and secured the overthrow of Tom. Major and Jack McColl and the nomination of Lorenzo Crounse? You have had a good deal to say about "bleeding tho state treasury." How can you account for the existence of certain notes of yours made to J. C. McBride when he was state tretisurer, and of which the principal and interest are to this day unpaid? If these notes do not "represont "blood money," why were liiey not proKeuted, niid why did you not pay thorn anyway? And what was the reason for your feverish anxiety not so very long ago to obtain posses sion of these notes for 9150, now held In this city? Your for perfect candor, The Call. WHAT THEY SAY. The pope soems to be exceedingly bitter on the Freemasons. He is at the head of the most secret machine in the world, and yet he objects to Masonic secrecy. We wish we were as safe trom the machinations of the church of Rome as we are from the effects of Free masonry. N. Y. Christian Enquirer. What Is Satolll here for? Who sent for him and who wants him? To a man on the outside, he seems to be a sort of general advertising agent for Rome, and his business to keep the Catholic church before the world through the columns of the newspapers. Baltimore Baptist. We would like to have some fair- minded Cathollo explain to us why with only fifteen per cent of the popu lation of tho country, the members of that church fill seventy-five per cent of the public offices. Is it because of their superior intelligence or higher qualifi cation for official position? No one will make so absurd a claim. Why then should the intelligent Catholics object if Protestant citizens unite in opposing the election of any more Cath olics to office until their proportionate representation is reduced to its proper limit?-Jfcdfcmd, Cut, Facts. Of course it was appropriate for the German Cathollo Vereln to adopt a resolution yesterday declaring that "We consider the temporal sovereignty of the holy see indispensable for the true government of tho church." The movement to restore me pope to his al leged temporal authority has been greatly accelerated of late. If vigor ously pushed it will probably result in the expulsion of tho pope from Italian territory. Why should the head of a church be given the temporal power of an earthly king? Is the restoration of the pope's temporal sovereignty any more necessary to tho welfare of the Roman Catholic church than the res toration of the inquisition? N. Y. Com mercial Advertiser. Well, the old soldiers of Nebraska have now a chance to choose between one of their number and one of the other kind Tom Majors has an hon orable war record, and is a "comrade" in every sense of tho word; he is also in every way worthy the support of comrades, and in the Standard's opin ion will get it from every loyal wearer of tho blue in the state. Steele City Standard. Some Learning. MR Pecci Dear Sir: I wish to make a quotation and then let you meditate on what the church of Rome is if left to herself and cot surrounded by the influences which cause her to build institutions of learning so as to meet, as well as possible, the demands of the age. "Tho laws forbade any one to be made an abbot, unless he had some learning; and the monks were re quired to devote some portion of every day to reading. It was rare to find any one among the bishops who was cap able of composing his own discourses. They contented themselves for the most part, with garbled extracts from Auguftine, Gregory and others." This Is written of the Seventh century, and I suppose you will say as soon as you read it, "That is a lie." An expres sion of that kind i a very common ar gument among a certain clas of peo ple, but it Is not convincing proof to a thinking man. And a presumptive ar gument that these words are tru-, is the fact that around the holy city of Home there Is so much Illiteracy, and in the nation which are known as pupal countries, there is so much ig nontnee it would be very strange if there were a difference when Rome proudly stalked through the land and wisdom shuddered in the darkness of Ignorance that covered the face of the earth. Tho abbot must have some learning. In this free land where we have been blessed with good schools we are im pressed with the idea that every voter must have some learning, and that he should not vote unless he has some learning; but here we find that the abbot must have some learning. And yet your followers who flock about u In flocks, say that the public school are of the devil. Why? Bocause the abbot (only) must have some learning. There is more than one way of holding the powec over men, bjut I tell you, frankly, I do not admire, that method by any means. I do not know whether you in dividually uphold it or not, but your church Is continually giving circum stantial evidence of the fact that that is her plan. It may be a wrong im pression, but the impression exists, and I would be glad to see some acts which would fully vindicate her from this charge. Let it be your aim, Mr. Pecci. to es tablish some system by which all your people will have some learning. The first stumbling block against which you will run will be a full knowledge of the Bible which condemns your custom of celibacy. You may say it is not a doc trine, therefore I have called it a cus tom. If, then, they have some learn ing, they will know what their duty as a church is to change the custom and if they have some learning they will attempt to do their duty. This is no age for standing still, and you must give your people some learn ing. Let your last days bo your best in this direction, and remove the Btigma that is stamped upon the organization you call the holy Roman Catholic church, tho mother ol all churches. Do not have a tomb built with an open Bible on it when you have done so little toward having it studied by the com mon people. It reminds me of the man who had a prayer pinned at the bottom of his bed and then when he retired pointed at them and said, "Them is my sentiments." Now is the time to teach your people somo learning, and if it is to be found in the Book which you will have on your tomb, do not be afraid of It now throwing lamp black upon some of the pet doctrines and usages of your church. There wm a bwwt thny called a mule He brayed and brayed and brayed; And boys wrote down one day at school, "The mule.h bifiyed and brayed." But when the monks saw these words there, "The mule, he brayed and brayed," They said to each, "Well I declare, The mule, he prayed and prayed." And from that sentence on the board, 'The mule, he brayed and brayed," They wrote a book with on accord, About that mule that prayed. Moral: Do not monkey any more with a limited, dwarfed education. Aleph. DEMOCRATS ASD THE A. P. A. rarty Leaders Urging Open Warfare Against the Organization. Washington, D. C, Sept. 24. The Democrats are wrestling with tho A. P. A. question. The operation of that and kindred organizations in various parts of tho United States is regarded as a menace to tho general order of things, and as particularly threatening to the Democratic party in certain lo calities. The Democrats are hesitating and doubtful about their treatment of the A. P. A.'s, very much as they were about the Populist movement when it first started. Tho chances are, how ever, that they will profit by their for mer experience and miike war on the A. P. A. from the very start instead iff waiting until the organization has reached greater proportions. In Illinois, Virginia, New York and Maine, and in scattering districts in al most all parts of the country, it is be lieved that this patriotic movement will have an effect upon the elec tions, and it is being urged by many of the Democratic leaders that there should be immediate and uncomprom ising war made upon the order, as one threatening to our institutions by drag ging sectarianism into politics. It is urged that as the order is almost solidly against the Democratic party there is no reason why there should be any hesitancy about making open war. The formation of tho Independent American Citizens' party in Illinois, for the purpose of running an Independ ent ticket in Cook county and elsewhere in the state, is regarded by Republi cans as a counter move on the part of the Democrats to draw off the A. P. A, support from the Republicans in that state. The new movement is said to be under Democratic leadership. Else where, it is thought, the Democrats will make open war on the order. The Republican campaign committee here refuse to pay any attention whatever to the A. P. A. movement, regarding It as a matter which should not be recog nized in politic. What Next! "The blindness of Irs. Mary Coyle, of Wilkesbarro, Pa., has been almost entirely cured, she avers, by a remark able process. She was almost totally blind. On Wednesday she visited the tomb of Father O'Haven, priest at her church for twenty-five years, and there wept and. prayed. Then she applied the dust of the grave to her'eyes. Now she sees as well as before she was blind." Catholic Citizen. Mrs. Helen M. Gougar, of Indiana the well known woman orator, Is to speak on "Municipal Reform" Saturday evening at 8 o'clock, at tho First Bap tist church. Good music will be pro vided and no 'admission fee will be asked, and it is hoped that every per son interested in the betterment of our city will be present. Mrs. Gougar has recently been Investigating the condi tions in Chicago and the lecture prom ises to be of unusual interest. Sunday evening at 7:30 Mrs Gougar will speak in the First M. E church. Fifteenth Street Theater. Tho ' Derby Winner" will appear at this popular house of entertainment for four nights and Wednesday matinee commencing Sunday matinee, Septem ber 30. There is a rich vein of comedy running through tho "Derby Winner," and it is handled very artistically by renowned comedians. Arthur Dunn, who is justly considered as funny a comedian as ever faced an audience, is seen at his best in the character of Tommy Bell; his singing and dancing and grotesque make-up are, to say the least, artistic, while his part affords him a splendid chance to show his all- around abilities.
