Item a thl from Houghton: "More
than 100 French Cauadians, nearly all
married men, have already left for

Canadians from tho Unltod State. The
families of these men will follow In

l'lUVATK letters from Supremo Pres
ident Traynor contain much valuable
Information regarding tho progress of
the A. 1'. A. movement iu the south.
Tho people of that section seem to be
as earnest and as anxious to preserve
tho free Institutions of this country as
we of tho north. This Is a suro sign
that the animosities of a third of a
century ago are gradually but surely
giving place to fealty to the re-United
States.
What did Gov. Waite mean when
ho told the middle of-the road Populist
women "that henceforth he would not
have anything to do with those whom
ho recegni.ud as the worst enemies of
the people? Rather would he go. at
the spring election, with tho men who
had given a pure administration to the
city of D.-nvt-r and win his way to vic
tory without tho so-callod Populist
parly?'' Tho men who gave to Denver
a pure administration were members of
the A. P. A. who hsd dominated the
Republican party.
The circulation of tho 7'e mutt be
dwindling at a rapid rate, if it editor
finds it necessary to call in the I'rott sl
ant clergymen and ask them why they
do not endorse tho policy of his paper.
Probably this will account for Lis dis
continuing his attacks upon the A. P.
A. The vicious thing should bo driven
into a corner and kept there until It
learns to toll tho truth, and until it
ceases to libel n en it cannot use. A
self confessed llbeler should not be al
lowed to lay down a code of morals for
as intelligent a community as this.
A UOL'T a year ago we called atten
tlon to the fact that a fellow under
Pat Joyce, at the Erie Freight house
on Fourteenth and Clark, had gone
around with two Roman Bisters and In
sisted on each man contributing to them
a certain amount or signing a paper
agreeing to pay them a given sum.
This year John Roach, a checker in the
same iretgnt House uudor tne same
man, performed a like service. When
will the Erie tak.j notice of these
things? Joyce should be given to nn
derstand that neither his time nor that

AS TO REV. IRVINE.
The Knights of Labor did a truly
graceful and honorable act when they
passed a resolution of confidence In
Rev. Alex, F. Irvine, after he had been
assailed by Omaha's great character
assassin the Omaha Jke. But how
must the sneaking cowards who wrote
and gave space to the slanderous
articles, how must they feci after re-
celvlf g such a scathing denunciation
from a body of honest laboring men
The Jke had no excuse for its malignant
attack upon Rev. Irvine. It had been
assured hy Don. W. II. Alexander and
two other eminently respectable gentle
men that there was not the least foun
datloa for the things which it intended
to publish. Yet, in spite of their as
surance, the contemptible "what its-It"
gave the sensation space. .Why? Prob
ably because Rev. Irvine published an
eight-dollar notice in his paper instead
of the Ike. Or, it may have been be
cause Rev. Irviae went before the
grand jury and testified against Rose-
water's pet, Seavey. At any rate, the
ghoul could not let a respectable man
alone.
Rev. Irvine must remember that it is
a mark of respectability to have the
V assail him. It never says anything
against a man it can use. The commun
ity will love him for the enemies he has
made.
hile we write this notice we have
bofore us a large bunch of letters from
the very best business men of New York
city, who unhesitatingly, and without
a single exception, speak in the highest
praise of the character and worth of
Rev. Irvine, and we are at a loss to
assign a good and sufficient reason for
the publication of anything which
would eem to reflect upon him in even
as untruthful a paper as the Omaha lite,
unless it was it thought he was an A
P. A. and an Orangeman.
TO THE SUPREME COUNCIL,
Before another issue of The Amer
ican is perused by its thousands of
readers, the national council of the A,
P. A. will meet in Milwaukee, and be
gin the transaction ol business of the
utmost importance to every citizen of
these United States, regardless of the
fact that he may not be a member of
the order, and for that reason we desire
to say a few words to the men who have
the destiny of the order in their keep
ing, but without any desire or thought
of dictating the policy of the organiza
tion:
First, we shall commend, in the
warmest terms, and without any Inten
tion of injuring the chances of any
gentleman who my be aspiring to the
office of supreme president; we say we
shall commeod the presiding officer of
the American Protective Association
for the work he has done, and for the
splendid Eervice rendered our order and
our country. In spite of the most un
precedented depression; in spite of the
millions expended by the subjects of
Rome, in spite of the opposition of the
daily press, in spite of the apalogetic
tlitude of certain gentlemen filling
Protectant pulpit, he ha carried the
n'.ItnonU to and planted the principle
of our order In tbu farthest and most
remote part of the country; he ha met
apal abuse with unanswerable argu
ments; he ha sacrificed hi bus!no
and neglecU-d hi family in the dis-
harge of w hat he considered hi duty.
'or I lie so rva-oos, and for those er-
Ices, we believe the order could do ltr
sold no great r honor than to re-ele-t
him to the p Itlon he now occupies.
He bus prort n himself honest, tlVicient,
trustworthy and cafe, and there U no
necessity for swapping horse while we
are causing the stream. When the
final battle has been won, when an
American president oecuple the white
house, win ii an American congress and
an American senate make American
aw for American cltieni, and when
the dally press cease to pander to
Rome, then and not till then, should a
change be made in the supreme presi
dent's office.
The next thing we shall suggest will
be the selection of a man from the south
for secretary. Mr. Beatty is no doubt
an efficient officer, but wo believe it the
part of wisdom to cement the north and
south, the east and west, as closely as
possible, and there is no better way
than by distributing the officers over as
much territory as jxissiblo, with the
understanding that each man chosen to
a supremo office Is to work incessantly,
untiringly and witho.it reward for the
advancement of the order. The coming
year is to be the most Important one in
our history. The presidential question
will hinge upon the attitude of the can
didates toward the A. P. A. Should
one of them have a predilection for our
order, he will be marked for the
slaughter; while he who is most pliant,
is the most subservient to the will of
the hierarchy, will receive tho support
of Rome. For that reason, the presi
dent and secretary of tho national
council of tho A. P. A. should be men
of wide cxicrienco, far-sighted and
awake to all the tricks of the Jesuits,
and we believe none are better qualified
to fill the two most lmortant positions
than Supremo President W. J. II.
Traynor of the north, and Green Clay
Smith of the south.
The next thing we would suggest
would be the careful, dispassionate dis
cussion of the question of a new party.
No one realizes the necessity for the
organization of such a thing more
than tho editor of this paper; yet he
questlous whether this is the time to
take such an advanced step. It has
been truly stated that Rome works
within the two o!d parties, and that
she bus been uniformly successful, from
this it is argued that we should do as
she has been, and is doing, if we would
become a power. Personally, we do
not favor such a plan, but that may be,
and no doubt is, the most politic thing
to do at this time. It appears to us
that If Protestants would take an active
interest in politics and not leave the
primaries and caucuses to the tender
mercies of the pope's Irish, the necess
ity for the A. P. A. becoming an inde
pendent political factor ia politics
would be obviated. We hope the su
preme council will not procted to a
settlement of this grave question with
out giving it careful consideration, for
there are splendid arguments both for
and against the oi ganizatlon of a new
parly.
Aside from this, we do not th'nk our
opinion on subjects which umy come
before the supreme body will he of
either interest or benefit, but we do
hope the delegates from all over the
country will consider well what we
have said about supreme officers and a
new party.
WAS HE ASSASSINATED?
There aro vague rumors and ques
tionings since the death and burial of
the great journalist, Tames W. Scott
People are saying that his death was
too sudden to have been natural, and
hint that the black-ccated villains who
nlanned the assassination of Lincoln
encompassed Scott's death. He was
known to have been an ardent anti
Romanist, and but a few days before his
death had written an editorial in de
fense of the taxation of church property,
of which he had that day or a few days
previous, published a list which re
mained untaxed in Cook county and
Chicago, the value of which aggregated
$100,000,000. The editorial referred to
read as follows:
"A LETTER TO THE CHURCHES.
"Brethren: When the Lord was go
ing about teaching, certain of the
Pharisees sought to ensnare hij speech.
Tell us, they said, what dost thou
think? Is it lawful to give tribute to
Ciesarornot? But he said: 'Show me
the coin of the tribute.' And he said
to them: 'Whose image and inscrip
tion is this?' They said to Him
'Uv jar's.' Then He said to them:
'Render, therefore, to Ctesar the things
that are C;esar's.'
"Caesar, brethren, according to the
prince of Denmark, albeit imperious, is
dead, and turned to clay. While Ca;sar
lived the church had little reason to
pay tribute to the state, for the chief
care of Ca'sar was to persecute it.
"You, brethren, owe allegiance not
to Crcsar, but to the state. If it were
the law that tribute should be paid
even to the persecutor of the church
for such measure of benefit as may have
been combined with persecution, how
much more I it not the law that tribute
shall le paid to the slate, which not
only doe Dot persecute any creed, but
protects thtm all; and as a grievous
at warrant the present in saying;
even prevent you frcmerscutlng one
another?
"In the commonwealth of which you
are part, brethren, revenue is necescary
for carrying on organized government.
You are sharer In all of gcod that pro
ceed therefrom. The commonwealth
asks not whether you be a Jew or a
Gentile; whether your god be eastern
or western; whether your cre d come
from the Ganges, the Great Wall, tae
Pantheon, the key of the fisherman,
the closet of Calvin, the groves of
Wtsley, or the forum of agnosticism.
What the commonwealth demands is
that each of you sheltered under the
roof of the state, and each having tu
own mansion, shall contribute a reason
able share of the general cost of the
ma-onry and the burden of keeping it
running and in repair. The common
wealth, solicitous that each of you shall
be free to cultivate its own ideals and
likewise to propigatj iU-elf in good
faith to all contemijoraries, offend ins
against none, and also that good will
may abound among you, and that you
shall Ihj helpful to all, so far as may be
without taking too many questions, re
mits from imM)bt of every kind the site
of your buildings and all appurtenances
you may place thereon, whether for
religion or for charity.
"Brethren, this is the frontier of in
dulgence given to you. to one as to all,
by the commonwealth. Whatever lands
any of you may hold, whereon either
now or hereafter private revenue in
your own treasuries shall arise, must
contribute their just share to the com
mon weal; and from every tenement
whence you gather profit for your pri
vate or corj)orate purse, you must share
vour gain with the purse of the people
who maintain your rights and safe
guard with their solemn zeal the
charter of your liberties. Do ye render
unto God all that appertains to Him
and cease now and forever to withhold
from the people the coin of tho tribute
which bears the imuge and Inscription
of the state. For it is fit that the
churches should sot to tho people an
example of truth and righteousness,
especially in the payment of taxes.
"Hark ye, brethren, finally, do ye
this of your own accord, and, therefore,
with grace. If ye do it not of your own
accord in the name of Jehovah, the
continental congress and the people of
Illinois, ye shall have to do it whether
ye will or not. Brethren, amen."
A day or so later he again said, edi
torially: "There appears to be no doubt in the
mind of Attorney General Maloney as
to his official duty in relation to the
millions of money due Cook county and
the city of Chicago from illegally ex
empt property.
"Mr. Maloney places tho blame, j istly
enough, on the assessors, but he docs
not point out any method by which the
vast injury inflicted on the people can
be corrtcted. The attorney general in
timates tli at a tax payer might make
complaint to him that certain church
property, exempt from taxation, was
us d for pecuniary gain, and that he
might then proceed by mandamus
against the assessor.
"This may be a practical method for
the future, but it does not appear effi
cacious for the recovery of the millions
now due. The people of Cook county
have a right to ask the law officer of
the state to go more deeply into this
question. Fully $10,000,000 should be
available to lay for urgent public pur
poses. The sum is due the city and
county treasury, and our legal proced
ure is utterly inadequate if it does not
contain a method by which the cash
shall be recovered.
"It may be that on more mature re
flection Attorney General Maloney will
change his mind as to the past delin
quencies of assessors. The courts will
act in cordial co-operation with the at
torney general in any proceedings he
may institute in behalf of tae despoiled
taxpayers. Should tho attorney gen
eral fail to find what appears to t im a
lawful mode for initiating recovery
proceedings, the bench and bar of Cook
county owe it to the community to come
to the attorney general's aid. Ten mil
lions of money must not remain uncol
lected. We want the cash.
NOTE AND COMMENT.
In another item under this
heading we have introduced you to a
man who does not believe in a literal
hell; in this we shall introduce to you
one who does not believe in a way
station at which Romanists pay all
their surplus cash to rascally priests to
have the spirits of their dear departed
released from. This skeptic, this non-
believer in the existence of purgatory,
is Rev. Feeman, of Marquette, Mich
In a recent sermon he is quoted as fol
lows: "In the evening he continued
his criticism of certain doctrines of the
Roman Catholic church, directing par
ticular attention to the doctrine of pur
gatory and to the practice of saying
masses for the dead in consideration of
a money payment. Mr. Feeman con
tended that there was no authority
whatever in the Bible for believing
there is any middle state purgatory
of the dead. This doctrine, he said,
was the invention of certain heathen
philosophers and was brought into the
church when it became popular. The
council of Trent, in 1V'J, finally made
belief in purgatory and in the iffieacy
of txi a mm.-s fr the dead an article of
faltb and erjoli e J it to be taught. The
Rowan church taught, be said, that
there were five different places to
which the sou's of the dead went. The
first was heaven, to which only a few
very good ffiea were directly admitted.
'We who have read history,' remarked
the speaker, 'cannot suppose that the
soul of many of the 'infallible' po.-s
went directly to heaven.' The speaker
here digressed somewhat to praise the
sanctity and virtue of certain CalLoiics,
speaking particularly of Feenelon, and
said that be had no doubt there were
very many Catholics wlio were as good
men as ever lived, aud whose souls cer
tainly went to heaven, for 'Blessed are
the dead who die in the Loid.' Tne
second place was hell, to which all here
tics and all Protestants went, accord
ing to the theory of tne Roman church.
The third place was limbus patrum,
where were confined the souls of the
antediluvians until Christ delivered
them. The fourth place was limbus
infantum, wh.-re went all the souls of
infanta who died without bap. ism. The
speaker characterized this as a ci jel
and inhuman doctriLe, without justifi
cation In Scripture and directly con
trary to the words of Christ, who said,
'Suffer little children to come unto me,
for of such is the kindom of heaven.'
The fifth place was purgatory, whither
went the souls of the great majority, or
at least all who did not die in mortal
sin. The duration of the suffering in
purgatory and the character of that
suffering were guaged by the character
of the sin committed and by the ability
of the lelatlves and friends of the dead
to pay for masses tJ secure their re
lease. Money, according to the doc
trine of tho Roman church, would
shorten the period of your father's or
mother's, or husband's, or wife's suffer
ing in purgatory. Therefore, if you
would contribute liberally to buy
masses you could shorten the pain of
those dear to you. 'This,' said the
speaker, 'is the Roman Catholic doc
trine of the forgiveness of sin. This is
the cruel and shameless traffic which
that church sanctions and practices.
Thus greed for gain is given an oppor
tunity to practice up n the highest and
tenderest feelings of the human heart.
It is a heartks, cruel, thameles?,
trafficking in human souls a creed of
money of bargain ana sale. Jesus
Christ said, 'He that believetb. in me
shall have everlasting life,' and I will
believe the words of my Lord and Mas
ter against all the line of popes.'
Tne speaker then asked any Catholics
who might be present what assurance
they had that the priest whom they
paid to say masses for departed rela
tives or friends performed the contract.
That these contracts were not always
performed was proved by certain scan
dalous trials not very long ago in
France. Certain Parisian priests had
agreed and had been paid their price to
say some hundreds of thousands of
masses for tho dead. It being physically
Impossible to fulfill their contract, they
had employed a broker to sub-let parts
of it to various poor country priests at
reduced rates, instead of returning the
money like honest men. But the broker
had pocketed t ae money and the masses
were not said. The purchasers learned
this and law-suits ensued which brought
out the facts of the whole shameless
transaction.' "
A SUGGESTION.
When that mass meeting at the col
iseum is held we suggest that it iin
meditely place in nomination a ticket,
and that the following eminently re
spectable citizens be the standard
bearers.
For Clerk of the District Court.
E. ROSEWATER.
For Sheriff,
ED. ROSEN WASSER.
For Treasurer,
DiCK SCANELL.
For County Judge,
EDWARD ROSEWATER.
For Clerk,
EDWARD ROSEN WASSER.
For Superintendent Public Inst.
CHARLES CONOYER,
For Surveyor,
E. ROSEWATER.
For Commissioners,
FATHER COLINARI
FATHER MORIARITY.
For Mayor,
E. ROSEWATER.
For City Treasurer,
JOHN RUSH,
For City Clerk,
PAT FORD.
The nominee for mayor should then
be compelled to appoint the following
gentlemen to positions:
Attorney, C. J. Smyth; Engineer,
E. Rosewater; physician, Dr. Rose
water; Member Board Public Works,
John B. Furay; Chief Police, Seth P,
Cole; Meat Inspector, P. Welch.
If this suggestion is not adopted we
fear the citizens movement will prove
futile in its opposition to the A. P. A
No other men than Rosev and the fath
ers can carry this county. We urge
the utmost caution in every move.
We have repeatedly said that Roman
Catholics believed and that their church
taught that persons not married in the
Roman church by a Roman priest lived
in a state of sin that the union was
"filthy concubinage" and that the fruits
of it were "bastards." In substantia-
tlon of thi charge read thi item from
the Omaha World lit r JJ of April 2i,
I...: "Anna C. McGuvkm has dis
missed her divorce c ase against Daniel
McGdckia. She wanted a divorce on
the ground of cruelty, and Diniel set
up a defense that the couple were ntvtr
married, alleging as his reasons that
Mrs. MiGuckin was a Protectant and
be was a Catholic, and they were not
married according to the rites of the
latter church, and that the marriage
was a common law marriage.'-
WANT A DAILY.
The following cumbers of shares have
been spoken for in the scheme to get
up a patriotic daily paper In Omaha:
Omalia, Nel shares.
Ctili-Hiio. Ill 5m)

There are to be 10,0x shares. Each
share is $15, payable when 1100,000 has
been subscribed. The capital stock Is
to be $l.j0,0iH. How many shares will
you want? Lot us have a daily.
Some two weeks as;o we mentioned
the fact that the inmates of the Roman
convent and the priests at the bead of
St. Mary's ave., until the colored fire
men were located at the house opposite
their place, had been in the habit of
using the telephone belonging to the
city and calling the firemen over for
messages. The only mistake contained
in the item was in referring to the fire
men as "micks." They were all Prot
estant Americans and assure us that
they acted under orders from Galligan,
the Roman chief. Mr. Robins says his
connection with the petition was only
to nave the old company returned.
The Missouri legislature is in the
throes of an extra session.

The Dust.
The "guns are on "em." The pulpit,
the rostrum and the press have turned
their attention to the.subjectof Roman
ism. While the guns were pointing at
the Roman Catholics because of the
Knownathing party, the bosk "Uncle
Tom's Cabin" although not written
by a Roman Ca'.holic, was the tool
they needed to causa the air to be filled
with dust so that the Roman Catholic
church would not hi seen. The north
and south began fighting, and the papal
church was proud of their wire-pulling,

England. Then we will have sufficient
dust, and will pay England for her
treatment of Ireland. HASTINGS.
