A.N Arrived From XaMiville on Time Election Day. "Don't it beat the devil," fatd Col. Ben Crutehfield, the day after the elec tion. "What?" he was a-?ked. "Why, the manner in which those d d A. '. A. 's travel over the country. Here a couple of weeks ago they sailed into Nashville and swept the town as clean as a new pin. It was tipped off to tne that they were on their way to Louisville, and sure enough they got there according to the program yester day. They must be a peculiar set, sure, to travel around so promiscuously and turn things upside down as they do." "Didn't I tell you what they would do when they got there?" put in John Brown, the ex threa card monte man. "Yes, you did, but I was afraid to play them,'' replied old Ben. 'I wasn't," said Brown. "I went right down the l'ne with $.",0(i0, played the A. 1. A. '8 straight at even money, and I have just added five thou-and to my bank roll." "Lucky dog, lucky dog," mattered old Ben, as he strolled over to the court-house yard, dug up a geranium root and chewed It as an antldotj for corn whisky. Juntm- The A. P. A. in Politic. The A. P.

In Democratic states the Democratic party will natu rally be the sufferer, while Republicans will probably feel it most in Republican states. It is one of llioso ephemeral organisations that sometimes springs up in politics and play the mischief with men and parties while they last. It will burn itself out in a year or two. There are a few reforms suggested by the organization worthy of considera tion on their merits and which have been thought of long ago. before the society was organized. But A. I. A. people have handicapped their few reasonable and meritorious propor tions with others so wildly fanatical end ridiculous that they can accom plish nothing. There is so much might be said, for Instance, and much that has been said by men ef sounder judg ment than the A. P. A. leaders, in fa vor of placing more rigid restrictions upon foreign immigration so as to pre vent the offscourings of Kurope from being dumped upon our Bhores. So, too, there is something preposterous in the idea of extending the right of suf f age to men who have no knowledge of our institutions, who are not imbued with American ideas and who have not even learned to speak the language of the country. But the central idea of the A. P. A is simply ludicrous. The white-faced terror of papal plots and conspiracies is laughable to any man who knows the spirit of this enlightened age. Whether the pope dreams of tem poral power and dominion is something of which we have no knowledge. We are not of his faith or his church, and do not presume to know his thoughts or his purposes. But if he has any such dream he is not the great intellect he is thought to be, but a very simple and foolish old man. We know that no such dream can be realized, and we think the pope knows it, and that every Catholic feels and understands it; The truth is, that even in med'a'val times the pope was never as omnipotent as he is generally supposed to have been. We know that he thundered his an athema at Magna Charta and sup ported King John with all the terrors of Rome, but we know, also, that Cath olic bishops defied the papal curse and supported the barons in their contest with the kiDg. It is nonsense to sup pose that in this enlightened day there is any possibility of a papal despotism being established in any enlightened country. It is "bogie man," a "gob blin" to frigh en children. Because it ia so, it will disappear like all the other air-drawn ghofcts and monsters that occasionally rise up to stir the Hi OMAHA. a It EAT WESTEItJS OAK STOVES,' No. 112 B, Great Western Oak $11.05 No. 114 B, Half Nickel Finish 13.35 No. 110 B 15.20 No. 118 B 17.D5 No. 120 B, 19.95 THE SILVER OAK A Dandy Stove.

Commercial Appeal, jVo-i. ,v We are glud that the mi rninir paper (if this city reull.es at lust the fict that the A. P. A., as in Kentucky so in other dates, will "cut a very consider able figure" in the elections. It is al ways well, when the condition i-tares you in the face, toadmit it. 'in Demo cratic states the Democratic party will naturally be the sufferer, while Repub licans will probably feel it most in Re publican states." Do you know the reason? Because the A. P. A. is neither Democratic nor Republican, but pro poses to cast its ballot fur true Ameri cans, whether in the one or the other or neither. See? "It is one of those ephemeral organizations that some times spring up in politics and play the mischief with men Hnd parties while they last." We can say right here, of a truth, that the American Protective Association will play the mischief with both the old parties as long as they refuse to give us a good, clean, patriotic administration. Just as long as tho.-e parties countenanre fraud, corruption and bribery, just so long will the "mischief" bo played. "It will burn itself out in a year or two.'' We 1, if it does, we propose to have some fun while it lasts. We will uelp to put a few good Americans in office before the cremation taWs place. But time will tell who is the prophet. "There are a fe reforms suggested by the organization worthy of considera tion on their merits.'' Thank you, brother. You have won the everlast ing gratitude of many thousand Ameri can citizens of Memphis for this gra cious acknowledgment. As Brother Long said last Sunday, "If it were not that we had just dined and are too full for utterance." we would show our ap preciation in fit and appropriate Ian gunge. As it is, we are your debt r. "But the A. P. A. people have handi capped their few reasonable and meri torious propositions with others so wildly fanatical and ridiculous that they can accomplish nothing." There, now, what do you think of that? The A. P. A.'s, according to the writer above, bas already "cut a very con siderable figure in the Kentucky elec tions, as it will in other states." They play "the mischief with men and parties while they last," and yet they can do nothing. That sounds like "You can and you can't, V'ou will and you won't.

But, like all others, theobjictor fails to point out his obj"ction. lie says there is something about the American Protcctl ve Association that Is "so wildly fanatical and ridiculous." What is it? Why, ho says "the central Idea of the A. P. A. is simply ludicrous." Well, what is the "central idea" of the A. P. A ? Modesty would suggest that be fore you pronounce a thing simply ri diculous you first ascertain what that thing iB. You have not even hinted at it In the above. And, let us say right here that the one who does not know whether "the pope dreams of temporal power and dominion" is, without much further instruction and knowledge, ut terly unable to represent fairly and truthfully the "central idea of the A. P. A." The principles of the A. P. A. are vwblishcd weekly in hundreds of papers, and we challenge any one who is true to the principles of the Govern ment of the United States to pronounce the grand "central idea of the A. P. A.," which is to keep the church sepa rate and distinct from the state, "simply ridiculous." 'it the A. P. A.) is one of the movements that can't be reasoned with, for it is not based on reason. When it gets tired it will quit." Allow us to correct the above. The A. P. A. "is one of those move ments" that must be reasoned with, for it is based on reason, truth and principle, and when its principles are established it will quit and not before. Memphis American. For Ilihle Reading in Schools. A petition bearing f0,000 signatures and asking that the reading of the Bible be restored to the public schools will be presented soon to the board of education. The petition has been pre pared and circulated by the Woman's Educational Union of Chicago. The Union held a meeting yeeterday afternoon at the reside! ee of Mrs. Case, the president, 201 Ashland boulevard, to consider the outlook for the move ment. Reports from the committee having charge of the petition were en couraging and it was decided that mat ters were in such shape the document could be presented to the board of edu cation in a short time. Mrs. C. F. Kimball read a paper on the subject of reading the Bible in the public schools, giving a history of the work done by the Union since its organization In 1890 The plan as outlined includes the se lection of passages suittd to all faiths by a committee, to consist of W.

Bancjok, Me., Nov. It Both Cath olics and Protestants are highly ex cited over the recent renting oH the city hall to Kvangelist Leyden, and the sub sequent announcement by Mayor Snow of his determination not to allow Ley den to appear. Mr. Leyden advertiMid extensively in the city and vicinity, and proposes to deliver an attack on the Roman church and rites Scnday and Monday nights. Yesterday morning Vicar General O'Brien called on the mayor and is un derstood to hae said: "You know I have only to call upon my people to stop this thing." The mayor theretijmn ordered the custodian of the hall to close the same Sunday. The fact that Leyden pos sesses the city's contract allowing him to occupy the hall, and has paid rent in advance, doubles tho difficulty. The. Roman Catholics are much stirred, and make earnest threats of riot. Protestants of all parties are an gry with the mayor for his easy ae quiesence to the demands. Father O Brien stated to the mayor that Lyden couldn't appear in any city in New England, except Portland, and not there but for Mayor Baxter. Ilnston Dnilu Standmd.

The farmers surrounding Lawn Ridge, a small ham let in the extreme northern part ef the county, are up in arms against an out rage perpetrated there Friday night last, word of which has just reached this city. The school-directors of the district, in compliance with the state law, recently suspended a largo Amer ican (lag from the top of the school. Everything worked all right until Fri day night, when somebdy fired a load of buckshot through it. There are guards now on duty day and night, and the discovery of the guilty party may be followed by lynching.
