Editor The American: I notice ome agitation In your columns about the formation of a new party. Now, I would certainly like to ace a new party, or one of the old parties taking a Stronger American aland. I would not like to become a party to the formation of a party that would toon become a corrupt as either of the old parties; but I understand that this new American party Is to be barred against RomanUm, the great corrupter of every nation and party. Some na tions have become so corrupt that God has seen fit to wipe them off the face of the earth. And I think that Is what will have to be dono with Rome and the parties she la corrupting. The Republican party sends Pat Egan to Chill, war vessel to watt on Italian prleots and bring them to this country to curse our public schools, and sets President Harrison, like a little monkey, down 1 1 Cardinal Gibbons' feet. And the Democratic party Is no better. Its representative, Grover Cleveland, "the obedient servant" as he calls himself of the pope of Rome, will give this whole country over to Romanism in return for Its political support. Now, whom or what party are we to vote for? Only a few months ago the Demo cratic party voted 1400,000 of public money to Satolll and his priests, under the pretente of Romanizing the In dians. Next comes the word that the Republican party has given Archbishop Ireland 500,000 for Romanizing that party. Now, which party are Ameri cans to vote for? Is it not as good to perish In the boat steered by Father Phelan as the oner steered by Arch bishop Ireland. Mr. William?, in his 2Vte American, some time ago, said: 41 We have 8,000, 000 men In the A. P. A. that can be depended upon to vote right, but that number as a party would be quite con temptible." I do not think that nuui ber would be contemptible at all if we could only depend ou tlinn. I think on an average every A. P. A. can influence a man outside the order to vote as he does, and that would make 6,000,000 votes for the new party. Now, I have been told that only 11,000,000 votes were , cast at the last presidential election. At that rate the new party would have majority of 1,000,000 voles. But al lowing, as Mr. Williams says, that there are 13,000,1X10 votes in this coun try, of which the new party can count 6,000,000, that would leave only 7,000,- 000 to be divided amongst the Republl cans, Democrat, Prohibitionists, Socialists, etc. Now, which of those parties Is going to come up to the new party with it 6,000.000 votes. Or does Mr. Williams think that these parties woutd all unite under Manager Satolll and vote the pope of Rome In for presi dent of the United States? In that case 1 thick the Prohibition party would come over to the new parly, and we would be victorious after all. In conclusion, I think we have the men, but I do not known If they are yet ready to quit their partisan machines for the American republic. However, I hope by 18 we shall either have an American-Republican party not an Ireland-Republican party or a new American party altogether. I would rather be defeated with an American party than victorious with any par'y bossed by the pope of Rome. An American seems to me a much nicer title loan either a Phelan Demo crat or an Ireland Republican. Magnus Nicolson, Council No. 32, St. Louis. Ma The Son of Perdition. 'Let man deceive you by any means; for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition." If we read the text in which this appears we are forced to the conclusion that it has reference to the Roman Cathollj church, which is claimed by them to be the mother of all churches. The claim is not made by others, but by herself, and the claim, in the face of opposition, is a presump tive argument that she is in error. In reference to the man of sin being revealed, it seems that this very thing Is being done now. The Iniquity and tin In the Roman Catholic church is being revealed to a greater extent tbao it has been for years. If a person twenty years ago had said and done one-half the amount of work many are doing against the Roman Catholic church now, they would have either had threatening letters sent to thein or they would have been hunted down in some way. Why do thry not do It now, when the man of sin is being revealed? Simply because they are afraid. There is an organized oxlilon, and they are terribly afraid of organized opposi tion. An ex-priet sooke on the school question and he received an anonymous letter that If he did not stop he might be hung to the nearest lamp post. A young man wrote to a priest, defending his side of theology, and he received an answer that he (the young man) wanted to be a martyr, like Stephen, but did not know enough. Another young man wrote to a pries', in Pennsylvania, arguing his position as a Protestant, and he received In reply a card on which was a picture of a skull and cross-bones. Hut now while the roan of sin is being revealed, and hundreds are taking the question Into considera tion, they are very much more quiet in their oeratlons. And may the revealing go on until everyone may see what kind of a re ligion this Institution has become. Bkresheth. A Drunken Priest. A spectacle, often seen in our large and small cities, was witnessed one evening last week about S o'clock In front of the Union Depot In this city. The Rev. Father S , It appears, had come up from the southern part of the slate, for the purpose, no doubt, of going to confession. Arriving early, he wended his way to a well-known priest's house where, as a matter of course, he was entertained royally by bis clerical confrere. So much so, In deed, that when evening came on, Fa ther S. was barely able to navigate, his host being completely knocked out, as Father S. termed it later on. The servant called a hack and the reverend fathor wai driven, poet haste, to the depot. On arriving there he found ho had many minutes to spare, so wandered to the Blossom House and ordered bis favorite beverage, "Spiritm Ferine nti," giving his order in the latin vulgate. The bar-tender stood aghast. What did he mean? Had Father S. lost his mind to call him such a name? '-You Infernal idiot," cried the priest, "don't you understand mar Utve me some whiskey straight." In the meantime hack drivers, thugs, confidence men, and all-around crooks had assembled to witness the sight. But the bar tender refused to give the father any whiskey, and he staggered his way to a CathoMo saloon a few doors below where, pulling out a five dollar bill, he ordered drinks for the house. Tailing a fancy to a certain young man in the orowd, he proposed hiring a hack and seeing the sights, but the young man declined. The reverend father stated that he had arrived In the morning Ith twenty-six dollars, but was then comparatively broke. Said he: "Fa ther So-and-so promised to come with me to the depot, but I knocked blm completely out, and the servant girl had to put him to bed. Why, toys, It was nothing for us In the ould counthry to drink fourteen or fifteen glasses of whiskey punch after dinner," and cer tain it N, his looks backed up his asser tion. This is only a small sample of the Romish priesthood. The hidden devils who are ever indisposed in their bod chambers, and who will only allow their most confidential friends to visit them, those are the pests of that churth and i f society, it was left to the lot. of two much abused A. P. As. to put Fa ther S. on board of his train, and no doubt, last Sunday he was warning his congregation against Intemperance. Praise Romanists and Slight Protestants. An American located at Ennls, Texa, under date of April 5, 18!5, addressed the following letter to ui: "Some days ago I sent you a few clippings from the Dallas News, containing sermons of Father Moran and other priesta of the "Holy Roman Catholic Apoetollo ohurch,"of Dallas. Every movement of Satolll, or a cardinal, bishop or priest of that church is given a promi nent place in their paper. Their ser mons are reported without comment and in the most cautious and respectful manner, while the sermons of Sam Jones and Moody are flippantly re ported, their effect spoiled, and they are commented upon and criticized wiien they know that nine-tenths of their readers are Protestants and Americans and opposed to Catholicism. They have criticized the old Know nothing party severely in their opposi tion to foreign immigration, when nearly everyone in the country is opposed to foreign Immigration, and especially the Italians and Portuguese. The People's party want foreigners to remain ten years before they are al lowed to vote. I handed out your papers, and they will do good. Priest Presents an Itemized Bill. Kansas City, Mo., April 16. Rev J. J. Dunning, a Catholic priest, has begun suit against Bishop Louis Fink, of the Kansas City (Kan.) diocese, for $100 on a claim for divine service at the cathedral hospital at Fort Scott, Kan. Ill bill of particular Itemize the service in this way: To performing divine service on Sunday from May 1, 194, to Aug. 14, PIU4, ninety times at tl each, t'JO; to offering benediction forty lime at 23 cents, 110. Total, I MO. Bishop Fink ha been served with a summon to appear Thursday to make answer. The Man With a FUhlng Red or a gun either, for that matter, will find plenty of use for it In the Big Horn Mountains, north and west of Sheridan, Wyo., on the Burllcgten Route's . New Short Line to Montana and the Pacific Northwest. No section of the United State so well repays the hunter and fisher. Game Is plentiful in the mountains, and the streams fairly sworm with trout, wblteflrh and pike. Just to illustrate things: In 1892, Mr. Richard Kimball, of Omaha, caught 6U8 trout In four days; hi best record for a day was 2115 fish, all of them hooked In less than eight hour. And Mr. E. A. Whitney, president of the First Nailocal Bank, of Sheridan, has In hi possession a trout which, when caught, weighed six pounds and nine ounces, and which was deemed worthy of exhibition at the World's Fair. Sheridan, the gateway to these "happy hunting grounds" Is only a day's ride from Omaha, Lincoln, Kansas City and St. Joseph; round trip tickets at very low rates are at all times on sale at Burlington Route ticket offices, and the extreme advlslabllity of this summer spending a fortnight in the Big Horns is respectfully urged upon every roan who love the excitement of the chase or the restful pleasure of the rod. J. FrancU, general passenger and ticket agent, Omaha, Neb., will gladly furnish further information. A Papist's Oath. The New York Sim, under date April 11th, In reporting the New Jersey sen ate Investigation committee, says: "Witnesses before the senate Investi gating committee today were sworn on a new Bible. The committee had heard that a Roman Catholic witness, who had testified, said that he did not think he committed perjury If he gave false testimony, as he was sworn on a Prot estant Bible. Not much credence was given to the report, but, in order to be on the safe side, a brand new Roman Catholic Bible, adorned with a gold cross, was procured, and all the wit nesses today were sworn upon it." The question now is, does any Bible or anything else for that matter bind an oath upon the elastic conscience of a papist to long as he can go to a priest an hour afterwards and get abso lution for, breaking It. lktroit Amer (can.
