Well, your censure has reached even
that unheard of thing! Topes have
proscribed the Hlble. How astonishing
to who (-pint; how overpowering to
hlmplo heart to mo tho finger of Home
placed upon tl o Hook of God! And
you claim the liberty of teaching.
Stop; bo sincere; let us understand the
liberty which you el alio.
IT IS T11K LIBKRTY OF NOT TEACHING.
You wish us to give you the j o jple to
Instruct. Very well. Let us see your
pupils. Let us seo those you have pro
duced. What have you done for Italy?
What have you done for Spain? For
centuries you hae kept In your hands,
at your discretion, at your school, these
two great nations, illustrious among the
Illustrious. What have you done for
them? I shull tell you. Thanks to
you, Italy, whoe nume no man who
thinks turn any longer pronounce with
out inexpressible filial emotion Italy,
mother of genius and of nutions, which
has (.pread over all the universe all tie
most brilliant marvels of ptotry and
the arts, Italy which has taught man-
ki-.d to re id now know not how to
rv iJ' Yes, Italy is of all the sta o f
Europe that where the smallest num
ber knew how to read. Spain, mugniil
cently erdoweJ Spain, which received
from tie Romans her first civilisation;
from tie Arabs her second civilization;
from Providem e, and in suite of vou, a
world, America Spain, thanks to you,
a yoke of stupor, which is a yoke of
denulition and de -ay; Spain has lost
this sect ct power which it had from
the Romans; this genius of art which it
had from the Arabs; this world which
It had from God; and in exchange for
all you have nade it lose it has re
elved from vou
THE INQUISITION!
the inquisition, which certain men of
the party try today to re establish;
which has burned on the funeral pile
millions of men; the Inquisition, which
disinterred the deaj to burn them as
heretics; which declared the children
of heretics Infamous and incapable of
any public honors, excepting only those
who shall have denounced their fathers;
the inquisition, which, while I sreik,
still holds In the papal Vatlc.in li
brary the manucrl.ts of Galileo soaled
under the papal signet. These are
your masterpieces. This fire which we
call Italy you have extinguished. Tais
-colossus that we call Spain jou have
undermined the one in ashes, the
Other in ruins. This 1 what you have
done for two great nations. What do
you wish to do for France? Stop! you
have just come from Rome! I congratu
late you; you have bad fine success
there. You came from gagging the
Roman people, axd now you wish to
gag the French people I understand.
This attempt is still more fine, but take
care, it is dangerous. France 1 a lion,
and is still alive!"
A Logical Sequence,
Peter Morrlssey, a saloon-keeper, was
elected to a seat in the state senate of
Missouri from SU Louis, some time
since, which position of trust he held
Utl recently. A number of year ago
he wa Indicted for ballot box stuffing,
nd doubtless dewrvrd a job in the
late penitentiary, Upon the Um pile,
but he and hi alooo together were
tuch a strong political center that they
were rewarJcd for their villainy with
election to ihe utate K uaUrhlp. Th y,
we ay, Uvause the naloun wa the
prime factor all the way through, and,
whether ill a pleasant cJcflon or
not, it wa the siloon, cot the man,
that went to the senate a legislator of
the people. Hut recently Morrly
gave up hi portion a slate senator
for death at the hand ot a courte.an.
Such U the end that await our boasted
aolf government if we as American till
Sen iermit the control of state and
nation to con.e through the dramshop.
It will ie just uch a violent end dealt
out by the hand of the worst elements
of society. It I a logical acq ue nee of
that kind of misrule. Hut it is about
lime the patriotic cltUenshlp of this
land drew the blade on thl vampire
whoso only buslr.ei I to grow ft on
the life blood and treasure of the land.
Municipal reform will be a temorary
pam, nnancial prooiem win ever
frown, omo great malady will threaten
to disrupt the republic a long a tho
saloon 1 H.rmtttcd to exist. Pull up
that tap root of curc. Remove that
disturbing element. Slay that mother
of harlot and generator of gambler.
Hum down that crime factory. Then
oatrlotism will have a chance to do
something for the country. But till
then the noblest citizenship of tho land
will play nurto and garbage gatherer
for tho lowest and most infamous insti
tutlon in the land. Omaha Christian
Advocate.
Oraiiwlsm in America.
How often have wo heard tho ques
lion: "Why do the Orangemen bring
their feuds Hiid quarrois to this coun
try?" Why do they not leave their
Hiitugonlsms at home? What has Amer
ica to do with tho strife between Prot
estant and Catholic Ireland? This is
entirely too narrow a view of the prln-
ciples of Orangelsm. Orangelsm is not
a war of one locality against another,
but a contention of principles against
antagonisms, und consequently la as
serviceable and necessary in other coun
tries where the samo antagonisms exist
as In Ireland, the land of It birth
The trlumnh of William, Prince of
Orango, was the triumph of Protestant'
ism over Roman Catholicism; and the
battles of the Hoyne and Londonderry
determined whether civil and religious
freedom or the tyranny of the Roman
hierarchy should prevail in the Emer
ald Isle. Principles are the same and
Immutato In every country and cllme;
and wherever the same antagonisms
exist, active opposition Is essential to
their maintenance and security from
decline.
When the north-country Irishman
comes to America he finds Romanism
hero in full force and rapidly rising to
political ascendency, cursing public in
stltutlons and manifesting the same
tendencies to usurp authority, to grasp
the reins of government and to break
down institutions that advance tho in
telligence and consequent freedom of
the people. Is It any wonder that he
remembers the blocdy massacre of his
forc'athers, and shouts anon the victo
ries of the ILyne and Londonderry Is
It a fault that he joins hand and heart
with his brother Irishmen in an effort
to prevent In his adopted country the
necessity of a repetition of such sad
history? The Orangeman of America
has transferred his patriotism to his
adopted country; and, finding tho same
power Raining groucd that for cen
luries has cursed bitterly his native
land, he finds the principles of Orange
ism as necessary here as there. He Is
then, an Orangeman in America be
cause Romanism is Romanism in Amer
lea. The freedom, the intelligence and
higher clvillzatioa which he finds iu
America cannot fall to cause him to
reflect upon his native country, even
with increased bitterness against the
institution that has oppressed it; and
the logic of centuries of misrule and
orlestlv tvrannv has taue-ht him to
scent from far political dangers to his
adopted country from that same reltgio
political power.
Between American Orangelsm and
Irish Orangelsm there is a difference
only in the center of their respective
interests. In Ireland, Orangelsm is in
defense and for the promotion ot Prot
estant ascendency in a monarchical
government. It stands in antithesis to
revolutionary methods in that It never
meddles with, only to improve, existing
oolitical Institutions. In America it
contends for civil and religious freedom
and orders Its course in the Interest of
the institutions of the great republic
against the encroachments of the Rom'
Ish power.
This institution has been too long
viewed by the American people from
the wrong standpoint, looked upon with
too much suspicion, and regarded as
the mere survival of an old Irish feud
It were far better for this country had
the public Inquired earlier Into the
principles of Orangelsm and heeded the
warning voice emitted by that institu
tion. Much of the corruption in our
national and state government, that
now disgraces us in the eyes of the na
tions of the world, would have then
been avoided, and the "Civic Federa
I tion" would have been in existence long
ago, to prevent ra hf r than to detect
lection fraud. The American Pro
tective Association would not now have
b en in lU infancy (a giant in lu cradle),
but an abler and mightier institution
for the protection of purity and hon
esty in polities. L'g ago the Orange-
rn sought to persuade u that organl-
allon against political Romanism wa
necessity; and we awoke from our
etharcy not a motrent too soon for the
safety of our otintry. We were fifty
ear behind oar Deeeeitiei. Had the
A. P. A. been organli-d fifty year ago
It might have done with ease what can
be accomplished now but with great
pains and only after year of suffering.
We roust endure a while, however
active we may Ikj, the coiisi-quoaec of
ear of lethargy. We shall expiate
the crime of our negligence and sordid
security in hard times and suffering.
The U-a-t ha hecotuo too strong to be
aslly shaken from hi grip upon our
vital. G.h1 speed the principle of
)rangeism and the A. P. A. Xurtk-

French Tricot.
It Is impossible for anyone to say not
guilty to the conduct of the Jesuit of
France if their history is examined in
that country, unless it is admitted that
they accept as a dogma, ' The end jua-
tifle tho moan." These gentry are
expelled from that country, and that is
the cause of the largo number being
here In tho United States plotting
against the government. They are
ever the same plotting according to
the Instructions of him who is their
captain or leader. They make their
gods by the bushel, and plot to destroy
the nation that will not worship them.
The Mother Cliiircli.
Bow did she become mother? Let
us read a few words of history. "The
Pontiff of Rome, Boniface III., obtained
decroe from the tyrant Phocas, who
had seized upon th imperial crown,
after the murder of the Emperor Mau-
rlolus, that tho Romish church, Ihe
apostolic seat of the blessed Apostle
Peter, should be the head of all the
churches." This result. d from the
contest with the Patriarch of Constan
tinople. Made mother because a tyrant
said so, and the said church became a
tvrant because sho wanted to. And
tho play has not ended yet.

is the bitterest light in the state be
tween Drake ami MeFarland for the
republican nomination for proverno

nipulated the A. 1 A. faction, but
lost the Swede vote, anJ Drake will
probably bave more than half the
