a eccret organisation, any Hron can
dofino It a ho choonca. The attack
made upon It hy Proa. Sccljo on Tut'-
day evening lias again aroused public
intervnt In tho organization, method
and purpose of thiu body. Tho Ad
writer has therefore obtained from
lit'?. J. U. Ounn, D. I)., secretary of
tho Cominltto of One Hundred, tho fol
lowing authorized Interview. Dr. Dunn
U In cloee touch with all the patriotic
order and la In almost dally corre
pondeneo with their leaJor, o that
the statement which ho make will Ihj
accepted on all sides a an authoritative
exposition of the A. P. A. from ono of
Its loadlntr aiwkeamon. Said Dr. Dunn
yesterday:
"lly some critic, it 1 ald to have
had It origin In Canada, and brought
to thU country by Orangemen, other
say It was started In Boston, but a it
could not thrive under the shade of
Bunker Hill, It wa taken west, and U
now brought hack east, while Mr. Dob
of tho A. It. U. affirms It wa formed In
an oftlee on Wall Btreet, three year
ago, by some railroad magnates to
break up the labor union.
"Now, the truth la, It wa started In
Clinton, Iowa, In March, 1S37, by Mr.
II. F. Bower, an American, for a
few year It made slow progro, but
after tho excitement in Boston, In 1888,
when a Roman Catholic priest sought
to dictate what text-book should be
used and what text-books should not be
used In tho public schools of Boston, and
tho Committee of One Hundred was
formed, and some 10,000,000 pages of
literature wa published and circulated
by the committeo all over the land, the
A. P. A. a well a the other patriotic
organizations Increased In membership,
especially tho former, the growth of
which during tho last few years has
boon phenomenal.
"The American Protective Associa
tion, known as the A. P. A., is but ono
of several national patriotic organiza
tions, each having state and local
branches, and all moving along parallel
lines. Among the organizations hav
ing active vigorous, branches in Massa
chusetts may be named tho A. P. A.,
the British American, the Patriotic
Sor.sot America, the United Order of
American Mechanics, the Junior Order
of American Mechanics and the Orange
men. With all these tho Committee of
One Hundred 1 in close touch.
"While each organization Is Inde
pendent and distinct, and employs its
own methods, all have for their aim
the purification of municipal, state and
federal governments, the overthrow of
'ring rule' in politics, by tho election to
office of Incorruptible, competent men,
which the introduction of the Austral
ian ballot now makes possible.
"No institution that civilization ever
gave birth to ha challenged so much
attention, given rise to so much com
ment, excited so much opposition, or
called forth so much abuse and vituper
ation as tho American Protective Asso
ciation, and no association is so little
understood by the public generally.
"The real origin of the association Is
to be found in the then condition of af
fairs, politically, in the country. Many
of the large cities, and even towns and
counties, groaned beneath the weight
of ring rule and bosslsm. Under estab
lished systems of fraud and corruption
rings and cliques made money out of
public office and used the public as
their victim in their schemes of self
aggrandizement. Inside these 'rings'
revolved other less important 'rings,'
ach in its turn corrupt and feeding
upon the spoils of office, making legisla
tion a costly privilege and reform al
most an impossibility. As a result
public funds were squandered, public
contracts were shamelessly bartered in
return for the ring-rule manufactured
votes that placed in office too often ig
norant men, corrupt In practice, dis
solute in character and unprincipled in
their dealings.
"To make matters worse, it was
found on careful investigation that,
wi ,h rare exceptions, no man unless
bearing the indorsement of Rome could
hope to obtain or long retain the emolu
ments of office. The Roman machine
dominated everything political. On a
still further investigation, it was found
that the aim of the Roman hierarchy
was to bring the United States under
the rule of Rome.
"l know all this is denied by many
adherents of the church of Rome, but
facts are stubborn things, and it is a
fact that Dr; Brownson in his Catliolic
Bevkw said: 'Undoubtedly it is the
Intention of the pope to possess this
country, and in this intention he Is
aided by the Jesuits and all the Catho
lic prelates and priests.' And it is a
fact that the Roman Catholic hie
rarchy, awviubW in Baltimore iu
1'2, Mnt out to the American people
this declaration, that the mUion of
their church In thl country was to
make it Catholic. 'The I'ulUd SUV,'
they aiJ, 'mu-t become a Catholic
country. It 1 alo a fact that Arch
blhhop Ireland, in the I Soman Catholic
congrcwi at Baltimore in 10, ex
claimed in a burt of enthusiasm, 'Our
work I to make America Catholic.'
And to aid in carrying out this million
of making America Catholic wa the
Catholic Truth Sjclety established.
To crown all, Pope Leo XIII., in an en
cyclical letter issued November, 18H.",
say that 'AH Catholic should exert
their power to cause the constitutions
of state to bo modelled on tho prln
clple of tho true church.'
"Now, in thl movement of making
America Catholic that I, making it
what Spain, Portugal, Mexico and
Italy were when thoroughly Catholic
countries It wa found that the Roman
hierarchy had a few year ago made
considerable progress. Many of the
outpost of Republicanism they had
taken. Our largo cities, with few ex
ccptlous, they had captured. Amerl
can publishers, at their bidding, had
in text-book suppressed and prevented
tho truths of history. For tho Amerl
can cycloKdla they had revised and re
written in tho Interest of Rome the his
tory of their intrigues and persecutions,
and to suit tholr wishes tho publishers
of our great dictionary had permitted
that work to bo mutilated in it deflnl
Hon. With political party leaders
the hierarchy had made terms so as to
secure grant of land and money and
annual subsidies to the extent of mil
lion of dollar in New York, and from
1.100,000 to 1400,000 annually by con
gress. "With such a condition of affairs, It
was surely high time for tho organiza
tion of some kind of society, to protect
the institutions thus menaced, to pro-
servo inviolate our pumtc scuooi
(which the Roman hierarchy had in
authoritative books and in councils and
by pastoral letters denounced as Im
moral and godless, as corrupters of
youth and seminaries of infidelity) to
purify government and break up ring
rule in politics, and to this end was the
A. P. A. formed.
'The organization Is not a religious
order opposed to Romanism as a re
ligious order. The American Protec
tive Association 1 only, as its namo
signifies, an association of men for the
secular business of protecting our coun
try against encroachments of political
Romanism, corrupt politics and what
ever dangers may menace the republic.
"One of its leading principles is that
it shall not Interfere with any man's
religion, except his religion interferes
with politic or good citizenship, and
those who charge the A. P. A. with
inciting a religious war make a false
charge. Even tho Catholic Western
Watchman, published in St, Loul, ad
mits this. It says: "Tho present op
position to Catholicism is not against
the religion of Catholics, but against
their political morals, that are a dis
grace to their religion.'
"The critics of the A. P. A. ought to
go to the root of the matter. The
average citizen looks with disgust and
alarm at the condition of thing in the
nation. He knows it is the veriest
trash to deny that Roman Catholics in
this country have not been claiming
and also getting more than they are
justly entltlod to in proportion to their
population. There is not a large city
in the land unless perhaps it is Phila
delphiathat is not under bondage to
Rome, and where 80 to 90 per cent, of
the offices, especially the high-salaried,
are not filled by the members of that
church. Even Dr, Washington Glad
den, who has so bitterly denounced the
A. P. A. because of its seeminjr antag
onism to Romanism, if he had been
honest, could have found plenty of ma
terial out of which to frame an indict
ment against that church, for he says:
For one I con! ess that I cannot look
with complacency upon the attitude of
some of the Roman Catholics towards
the public schools and their attempts
to use the municipal machinery for
their own purposes, where they have
the power are not reassuring.'
I have the greatest respect for the
personal statements of those Roman
Catholic laymen wh j assert that they
are loyal to American institutions, and
no doubt they mean to be loyal citizens
of the republic, and honestly think
they are. Yes, I am quite willing to
believe that they have no wish to inter
fere with the liberties and institutions
of America. But it must be borne in
mind that they belong to a system in
which free agency is impossible. The
Vatican claims absolute and supreme
authority in all things civil as well as
spiritual, and over the consciences of
men. In an encyclical issued by Leo
XIII. at Rome, January 10, 1S90, Ro
man Catholics are enjoined, even in
politics, always to serve first the inter
ests of Catholicism, and to submit
themselves in obedience to the will of
the pontiff as to God himself, and that
the civil laws are binding on them only
so long as they are conformable to the
Roman Catholic religion. In that
same encyclical the pope says it is a
duty to resist all civil laws hostile to
anything ordered by the church, and a
crime to obey them. These being the
facts, Is it not quite certain that what
ever hi private or ronal opinion
and feeling may e as an American
cillen, every gixid Hainan Catholic
must upKrt the church as against the
state.
"Now, no oiie object t Roman Cath
ollc taking an active part In po'.ities,
if they will do so a American citizens
and with a purpose to advance the in
U-rest and welfare of the republic.
But every honest American doe object,
and that most decidedly, to any alien,
bo he prince, poio or txjtrntate, nsi
dent on the Thame, the Tiber or the
Danube, Interfering or dictating in any
way with the civil or political affair of
the nation, especially to hi assumption
of supremacy over the United State
and hi claim to direct the duties and
fix the limit of the loyalty and aervl
tude of a large portion of the American
people.
"What are the principles a adopted
by that organization and set forth in
the declaration of It supreme council,
and not such principles a its enemies
say It hold. Here they are summar
ized. Restriction of immigration ex
tension of time for naturalization an
educational qualification for suffrage-
one general, non-sectarian free public
school system no public fund or pub
lic property for sectarian purposes-
taxation of ail property not ownel and
controlled by the public the opening
to public official inspection of all private
schools, convents, monasteries, and
places of a reformatory character no
support given for any official public
jtosltlon to any person who recognizes
primal allegiance in civil affairs to any
foreign or ecclesiastical power Amerl
can lands for American settlers.
"What is there un-American about
theso principles? Any citizen who Is
of good moral character who approves
theso principles is oliglble to member
ship, retrardless of his place of birth,
hi creed, or his party affiliations.
What is there prescriptive about this?
'It is charged against the organiza
tion that it is a secret society. Sup
lose it is. Unless such a society is
treasonable or dangerous to the safety
and peace of a community by Its prin
ciples or method, it has a right to ex
ist. There is nothing in law or com
mon justice to provent men from com
bining in organizations for any definite
object and maintaining their meetings,
plans and deliberations in secret if they
so choose. It Is BomethlDg very notice
able that those who rail against the A.
P A. because of its secrecy features,
have nothing to say about other secret
societies, such as the Clan-na-gael, the
Ancient Hibernians, the Foresters, the
Jesuits, etc.
"It is again charged that the A. P.
A. requires of its members the taking
of oaths never to trade with, nor to
employ a Roman Cathrlic. This charge
on the authority of those who know I
brand as an utter falsehood. In th' ob
ligations taken by the members not one
word is to be found about trading with
or employing Roman Catholics. Nor
Is there one word said about not voting
for a man because of his religion. Yet
the Catholic Review, perhaps the ablest
Roman Catholic journal in America, in
an editorial November 30, 18!0, (before
there was much talk of A. P. A.) said:
This is the rule for the Catholic voter
in present conditions, where a Catholic
candidate is on the ticket and his op
ponent Is a non-Catholic, let the Catho
lic have the vote, no matter what he
represents.
"Just as groundless is the charge
that the A. P. A. is a wing of the Re
publican party. It is neither the wing
nor tall of any party. Its members are
seeking to place in official positions
true and tried loyal Americans who
will administer public office for public
good.
"Thus briefly I have sketchod the
origin, principles and aims of the
American Protective Association.
From this it will be seen how greatly
the publlo has bjen deceived by news
paper reports, not that the reporters
who gathered up the news wilfully
sought to deceive their readers, but
they themselves had been imposed upon
by designing or ignorant men. As far
astray from the real facts in the case
were some of the reports published as
to the causes that created the sur
prises of recent elections that threw
political schemers and maeh ne party
leaders into confusion and upset all
their accustomed calculations, and de
feated petted candidates and schemes,
Further surprises in city, state and na
tional elections still await all such, A
new era of better things is being
ushered In." Chelsea (M&asJAclvertiser,

Chairman Babcork Repudiates a Circular
Sow Being Distributed.
Washington, Oct. 17. Chairman
Babcock, of the Republican congres'
sional campaign committee, today is'
sued the following formal statement to
the press:
I have been today handed what pur
ports to be an advance sheet of a docu
ment now being printed in this city. It
is entitled: "A Bold Appeal to Bigotry
Republicans Circulating A. P. A
Literature The Congressional Com
mittee Doing the Work But Shirking
tho Responsibility." The dooument is
made up of extracts from newspapers,
and is so utterly devoid of truth that it
would hardly seem necessary to deny
any such tin no of baae falsifications, all
of which are false upon their face. I
have re(eaUdly slated to the pre that
the Republican congresional committee
had atteolutely no connection of any
kind, either directly or Indirectly, with
any secret society, or In fact with any
other society; that It has conducted the
campaign strictly ujKtn the lines indi
cated in the last national platform,
realizing that the committee has no
authority to make or inject any huos
Into it campaign not authorized by it
party platform. We have worked
steadily on tnl line, and all the litera
ture that ha been published or handled
by the committee ha been exposed for
the public and for the public use in our
reception room at the headquarter,
210 Delaware avenue, northeast. No
one ha ever been refused any of the
documents published by or issued from
this committee, and they have all been
scattered broadcast over tho land as
the committee thought, and still think,
in the Interest of good government and
protection to all.
I desire to say once more that the
statements made in this pamphlet, or
folder, so far a they seek to connect
the congressional committee of the Re
publican organization in charge of the
campaign with any organization of any
kind are absolutely and unqualifiedly
false in every particular; that there is
not, nor ha there been, any connection,
directly or Indirectly, with any organ
ization outside of the authorized state,
central and district congressional com
mittees: nor has this committee
handled, mailed, nor asked to be
mailed, anv literature of any kind, ex
cept that exposed tor public use in its
reception rooms.
Schools in Sew Mexico.
In the bill providing for the admis
sion of New Mexico as a state, an
amendment was introduced in the
house of representatives providing that
the English language should be taught
in the publ c schools. It was not pro
vided nor Intended that no other lan
guage should be taught, but this
amendment was too strongly American
to suit the Democrats of Pennsylrania,
Delaware and New Jersey, 60 they put
themselves on record as voting solidly
against it. The provision in the bill
donating public lands for schools, is
the most liberal of the kind ever passed
by congress, and yet a lot of hide
bound Democrats would not consent
that the teaching of English be made a
compulsory part of the public school
curriculum.
If this be the Democratic sentiment
toward New Mexico, and if it can suc
ceed, that territory should not be ad
mitted to the union until public opinion
has altered. This is an English speak
ing country, our laws are printed in
English, our court proceedings are con
ducted in English, and nearly all the
business of the whole country is trans
acted in English. If there bo any one
thing which the public school children
of New Mexico should study, it Is the
English language. They may keep
up their Spanish, where it is their
native tongue, but in any event they
should be taught English.
The Democratic opposition to this
eminently wise and proper amendment
must be based upon the belief that
Democracy thrives and flourishes best
in regions of Ignorance and illiteracy.
If the New Mexican school children
were to be taught to read the declara
tion of independence and the constitu
tions of the United States in English,
perhaps they would not vote the Demo
cratic ticket on coming of age, and if
the older ones should read the Chicago
platform, and contrast it with the con
duct of the present congress, they cer
tainly would not.
On the whole, we incline to think the
Damocrats are right from their point
of view, for if they are afraid of any.
thing, it is of the diffusion of intelli
gence and the acquisition of informa
tion regarding the history of this coun
try. The longer New Mexico is kept
from learning the English language,
the longer the Democrats will have a
chance to control the politics of the
state if it be admitted. San F&rncisco
Chronicle.
Uniformed Ecclesiastics In the Public
Schools.
Judge Parker, of Pennsylvania, de
cides that nuns may receive certificates
as teachers from county superintend
ents under their religious names, and
may be permitted to teach while wear
ing the garb of nuns, that they may
permit pupils to address them by the
title of "sister," and may call a visiting
priest "father." But it enjoins the
directors of the Gallitzln public school
district from permitting the use of the
catechisms of the Roman Catholic
church as books of instruction in the
said public school building at any time,
whothor during school hours or other
wise; and from giving or permitting
religious sectarian instruction therein
at any time; or from using or permit
ting the use of public school property
for any other than free school pur
poses.
The decision presumptively was de
signed to keep the peace with all
parties. It has the aspect of heaging.
for it is grossly inconsistent. These

being called by religious names not
given to them by parents or guardians,

language of a sect are both passively
and actively recommending and teach
ing tho Roman Catholic religion.
Suppose that a Baptist teacher in
the public schools should wear a garb
on which was embroidered in large
letters:
"I belong to the Baptist church, the
only church in Christendom that Is
founded on the New Testament, and in
harmony with the plain teachings of
God's word," and an appeal has been
made to the directors to discharge such
persons unless they would wear an or
dinary raiment; suppose they had re
fused, and had it been taken to this
court; is there the least reason to be
lieve that the decision would not have
been in favor of the board of directors?
But do not the uniforms worn by these
persons and the names they bear em
phatically say such things of the Ro
man Catholic church as those teachers
would be saying of the Baptist collec
tion of churches?
Now let the apostolic ablegate visit
the school and let the nuns prostrate
themselves before him and kiss his
hand or signet. If they say nothing,
of course that will be only their form of
politeness.
Let the people of Pennsylvania
awake to the fact that this is not the
thin end of a wedge, but one well driven
In. And let that decision bo taken to
the highest court; and if sustained
there, let it be made a political issue,
with all that it im plies. N. T. Chris
