The council adjourned to meet at 9 a. m. Thursday. At 8 p. m. a grand reception wa ton dered the council in the Academy of Music, by the subordinate council of Kancas City. The hall was beaut fully decorated with American flags, while lovely palms waved their graceful head above the front of the stag-o, em blematlo of the palm of victory, that the W. A. P. A. and the A. P. A. will some day bear over the papal power Id the United Slates. The program was printed in gilt. The music, addresses and recitations were, without any exception, approprl ate and ably rendered. We would make special mention of "The Stutter ing Family," and "Where has my Jiancy Gone." They were rendered In style beyond compare by Prof. C. H Fish. The song written by Prof. An son . Buckley, dedicated to the W. A. P. A. and set to the tune of Georgia, was received with loud applause. After. the reception, refreshments were served. Thursday morning the council met at 9:30, the president In the ehalr. The reports of the following committees were received and the committees dis charged: Constitution, good of order, and resolutions. Then Prof. Buckley, the author of the W. A. P.

Spring field, "the Queen City of the Ozarks," was chosen as the next place of meet- i log the first Wednesday In June, 18W (l). V.) Then came the installation of officer, after which council clown! it first sec tion with a short addrent by the new president. A rising Tote of thank to the outgoing preslJent wa given. It ha never loon our privilege to behold a finer looking, more business-like and Intelligent body of men or women than this bjdyof W. A. P. A. ladies. "They will aland the storm, It will not be long." They Intend in the near future to cast anchor in tho harbor of American llbc-ty, forever tafe from all eccleolas tlcal rule. Committee: Mr. L. J.

A. state council wish to tender their most sincere thank to the ladles of the different councils of Kansas City for the kind and hospitable manner la which they were received and enlertaltcd. We would return special thackt to Mr. W. Keese for ber untiring efforts to nrn Ice our stay at the hotel pleasant and homelike, and also for acting our escort to and from the couucll room. Mrs. M. C. Nichols, Chm. Com. on Resolutions. Papist in Clever. Internal Revenue Collector James F Connelly has received formal notifica tion of his appointment to the consulship of Osaksand II logo, Japan. Accompany ing the notification was a letter explain Ing the course Mr. Connelly must pur sue. He must start for Japan within thirty day of filing his oath of office and a fi.COO bond. He will not file the oath, however, for tome time. Over 50 per cent of the appointment made by President Cleveland have been papist. This, together with the fact that he Is hobnobbing with SatollI, would seem to indicate that he will make a bid for tho presidential nomi nation text year, with the aid of tho political ecclestastlcs of the church But he Is doomed to dlsaDDolntmont. It has been demonstrated time and again that It is Impossible to elect a Ro man Catholic president of the United States, and the citizens should see to it thatono It not elected by proxy again Cleveland must go. Editor of Lowell Herald. Kill If They Can't Control. Archbishop Kain, of St. Louis, has been tho death of the Katholischer llausfrrund. Its reverend editor dis cussed too much theology. Ninety-one censurable opinions were extracted from his columns. Cutholk Citizen. Yes, that's the good old papist way kill what they can't control. The ed itor of that papor with the awful name had probably too much Independence of thought spoke out too plainly. He "discussed too much theology." "Nine ty-one censurable opinions" he was ound guilty of having expressed. But do you suppose foul mouthed Phelan, of the Wes'ern Watchmin, will be inter fered with, right there In the same city? Hut say! Don't Rome's priests and bishops love our American idea of free speech and free pi eat? Yes, about as much as the average Irishman loves a "nigger." So the poor editor was shut up and clre ed out. Independent. Home In Our Public Schools. When a Protestant clergyman moves that the schools be closed on two days In order to allow certain of the pupils ti attend religious services at the Ro man Catholic church, some notice of hie action is demanded by a justly In dignant public. This was recently done In Hopktnton, Mass., where investiga tion shows that there are only four Protestant teachers out of twenty-one. The resident Catholio priest controls the school board, and when vacancies occur it it tacitly understood that no Protestant need apply, for the positions are promptly filled by Roman Catholic tea hers, some of whom, according to a Boston Standard correspondent, have not even graduated from a high school. This Is a lamentable state of affairs, and the citizens of that ancient Puritan town cannot bjstir themselves any too soon. There should be one rule rigidly adhered to: No closing of the public schools for sectarian purposes, or in ob servance of sectarian holidays. Wom an's Koice. May Be Excommunicated. France's parliament stands In danger of excommunication, which, if carried Into effect, will be without precedent in history. It seems that one of the abbes who sits In the chamber of deputies for a rural constituency, has introduced a bill to punish and prohibit dueling, and, under a papal bull now in exist ence, any one who opposes the bill must be excommunicated as encouraging this particular form of murder. That Is to say, if the chamber rejects the bill, the clergy, according to the terms ot the papal edict in question, have no alternative but to place them under the ban of the church.

Thanks, awfully; but hereafter we respectfully request our friends having any such designs upon us to leave the hen-fruit in a basket at our side door, Instead of decorating the front screen therewith. We can break the erg ourselves when we are ready to use them. The front doors of the home of M. II. Bacon and II.

Courage and perseverance, brethren, and God will do the rest. The news which has spread all over the United States of you liberating yourselves from the bondtge and the oppressive yoke of Romish despotism have swelled our heart with gladness and your act have met with great ap probation by every true and liberty loving citizen of America. This country 1 destined by God to be free and Independent, and we are disgraclrg the loyalty of our forefathers by keep ing the oppressive yoke of Romanism upon our necks, as it mean nothing but slavery and subjugation. When we read in the Omaha Ameki CAN tho noble deeds which you have done in your religious reformation and advancement, and the great conquer which you have won in freeing your selves and becoming a free people, for ever loosed from tho "aatl Christ" of Rome, we could not help cheering your noble and courageous work, which will go down in history and stand forages to come Bravo! to you, you noble patriots of Poland. Let your motto be: America first and religion afterward! And ex claim as with apostrophe, with the lm mortal Daniel WebBter, "Liberty and union, now and forever, one and in separable." Away with priestcraft away with popedom. Frea government and public schools are good enough for us in America. Courage, patriots,. and you will succeed. Accept best wishes from the Omaha Independent Polos to those oi Chicago. A Polish American Citizen. Why Not! Everybody knows that obtaining money by false pretenses is a crime, and full as serious a one as burglary. Every where the courts so deal with It. But of all offenders In this line, tho only class of which the courts do not take cognizance the Romish clergy are the worst. By a system of unblushing fraud they extort from poor people the last dollar of their hard earnings to de liver Bomo poor soul who was dear to them from the flames of purgatory. The Toledo American calls attention to this extraordinary exemption from punlsbmont on the ptrt of these e?cle elastics, who, it is safe to say, are very seldom humbugged themselves by the Ilea they toll their victims. There ought to be some law passed which should at least restrict this playing on tho superstition of the poor and I g no tan t, and as Freedom's Banner, another patriotic paper, suggests, there should also be "a provision making void any will containing a bequest of funds to be left to priests for praying souls out of purgatory." There Is no reason why ecclesiastics should be allowed to pile up money in their coffers through false pretenses, and go scot free, while the man who has no such priestly Immunity muet suffer the full p.-nalty of his crimes. These are points which our law-makers may yet have to consider. Ex. What We Want. Our order wants to see the Roman Catholics freed from the tyranny of the priesthood. It wants to see Catholic children edu cated in the public schools and placed on the same footing as our own mem hers. It wants them to get their religious Instruction from Sunday-schools and from the mother's knee. It wants them to have the benefit of every law that benefits our order. It wants them to be thoroughly edu cated and use their God-given right to choose whom they will serve. It wants them to know as much about theology as their priests. It wants them to be good, loyal, free American citizens, owing alleelanca to uoa ana country alone, with no Inter mediaries. It wants them to be satisfied with one vote and It properly counted. It wants them to accord the same privileges to others that are accorded to them. Butte (3ont.) Examiner. Pamphlet. Extracts from United States Con gressional Record, containing address of Hon. W. S.

The will of the late Jacob Ballone was opened in the probate court yesterday. Ballone was a rich farmer of this county, and out of an estate of almost $8,000 he leaves four legacies of $300 each, and the residue, excepting a debt of $150 and costs of probating, is bequeathed to St. Joseph's Roman Catholic Church of this city. Appealed U the Mayer. San Jose, Cal., June 5. Consider able excitement ha been aroused In A. P. A. circlet during the past few day by the dying of the Italian flag over the hall of the Italian Benevolence Soclet At a meeting of Council N'o. 31, A. P. A., last evening, a committee was ap pointed to wait upon Mayor Austin and have the flag removed or tbeAmerican flag placed above It. The mayor prom ised to use hi Influence In jthe matter, and thl morning about 10 .o'clock the Bug wa taken down. It is siid that there were about 500 member present at the meeting and that the hot- Lea did member were in favor of storming the building and tear ing the flag and j)!e down, but the more coueervative members were in favor of sending a committee to the mayor. ATTENTION! Elsewhere In this Issue, on page 5, will be found the large and attractive advertisement of Pope, Bishop & Co., Pardon Brokers, which we desire each of our readers to peruse with more than ordinary care, for there are a number of bargains offered therein which few would care to overlook. Besides, it is the duty of the readers of patriotic pa pers to patronize merchants who ad vertise in them, when in seed of any thing In their line. Pope, Bishop & Co. Is one of the oldest firms doing business in the world today, and their past sue cess must be accepted as a criterion for their future. They run no book ac counts, and are consequently enabled to undersell all would-be competitors, Cash must accompany all orders. Be sure to give them an opportunity to fig ure with you when needing anything in their line. Their mottoes are "Quick sales and low profits," "No trouble to show goods," and "The end justifies the means." Remember the name and place Pope, Bishop & Co., Rome and Washington. Pointers. If the novelist le in search of a plot that will take, and cannot originate one, let him go to some of the ladies who have been nuns, or have almost been nuns, and they will be able to furnish enough material for him to work on for ten years.
