A Boston Presbyterian Talks

Independent
DuA Bamaa Catholicism Has Beta
Taaaperias Wit History I
Clearly lToted.
(A few weeks ago there appeared in
the Standard a series of letters from
well-known gentlemen, for and against
the American Protective Association.
One of the letters from lie v. Dr.
Hershoy, pastor of the First Presbyte
rian church, Boston, was replied to by
Re. H. K. Carroll, of the Jndepcmlent
challenging Dr. Hershey's state
ments. Dr. Carroll is prominently
mentioned as a probable successor of
Dr. Hunt of the Methodist Book Con
cern, New York. We give below an
"Open Letter" from Dr. Hersbey, to
be followed by another next Saturday.
To the Rev. H. K. Carroll, D. D., Re
ligious Editor of the New. York Inde
pendent: My Dear Sir. Some weeks ago I
wrote an article for the public press In
which I said some things to which you
dissented. I then held those particu
lar things to be true; I now still more
firmly believe them to be true.
In the Independent of March 19 you
devoted, almost a column of your edi
torial department to the attempt to
overthrow my statements. I am will
ing to leave the verdict to the intelli
gent American people, after my reply
is made.
You say in your editorial that it is
"solely In the interest of truth and
righteousness you expose the falsity of
such statements." We shall see how
much "truth and righteousness" ap
pear in your position when it Is once
examined.
You say, in your editorial, that you
wrote me two letters asking my autho
thory, but got no reply, except a news
paper clipping of 1894, complaining of
the course of the Lxdependent. Pre
cisely; and since you think the public
should know this, I may say why I
gave no reply.
Some two years ago you may re
member it you took occasion, in your
role of papal apologist, to warmly
praise the Roman Catholic papers for
the way in which they illustrated the
loyalty of the Roman Catholic church
to the institutions of this country.
Some of us did not exactly see where
you could find proof of such a claim.
We, too. read some of the Roman
Catholic papers. We felt like saying
to the Independent: "Show us just
one instance." And, as the lauding
, items appeared in your department of
, the paper, I wrote you a letter asking
you the names of such papers, and the
dates. I enclosed a stamp for reply. I
got no reply. You know why. You
understood you could not produce one
paper in support of your claim, but I
would have matched it with a dozen
specific quotations on the other side.
Now my dear but unfortunate sir, when
you wrote me two letters and did not
enclose stamps for reply, I saw no
reason why I should make an excep
tion, in favor of the Independent, of a
rule which for years has led me to pay
no heed to such letters from strangers.
I often find several such in a single
mall, from all sorts of people, asking
for all sorts of things, exacting from
me time and postage.
Now, this hurts a little, but I cannot
help it. Candidly, doctor, do you see
any reason why I should have answered
those letters? You declined to give
me your authority for your articles.
But further, two years ago I wrote
you and asked that if you did not care
to give me the information I wished, it
would throw light on your position if
you would give, in the Independent, the
names of such papers, and the proper
dates. You will pardon me, but some
of us had already learned that the In
dependent was not very reliable at
times. You know how you missed it in
your religious statistics. And you no
tice how recently others have been
confused because of that same depart
ment of religious statistics.
By the by, have you been told you
missed it just 20,000 in my own particu
lar denomination in a single year?
Well, two years ago, when you neither
replied to my letters nor gave the re
quested information in the Independent,
I wrote for several church papers an
article, "Solely in the Interest of Truth
and Righteousness," and made citation
to several Roman Catholic papers,
which could not have escaped your eye.
And, if you will permit me to quote
from your recent editorial, "the falsity
of your sts'ements" were shown. It
was this clipping I recently sent you,
thinking it might show you whither you
were drifting. But it didn't; you
jumped in and attempted to break
down whatever reputation I may have
in this country as a conservator of the
integrity of historical data.
1 believe in maintain? the integrity
of history. To attempt to change the
"udiclal trend of history Is as culpable
as the attempt to break down the cred
ibility of an honest witness on the
stand. You know the force, long at
work, to change the very substrata of
history, so as to make history give In
a wholly different verdict. The at
tempt to change the great Irish mis
sionary, Patrick, into a Roman Catho-
l'c ecclesiastic, who beld to the Roman
Catholic faith and polity, isaa instance.
You stand before the expert students
in history la this country, lending a
hand to this nefarious work. Calmly,
now, what are we to think of this? Are
you doing this solely in the interest of
truth and righteousnesk?
Now, we will look at the situation in
part, and then if you are willing to cor
rect your other misrepresentations, and
say you are sorry for what you wrote,
without knowing more about the mat
ter, I will say there la yet hope for you,
and be as easy on you as I possibly can,
but if you do not, I will spare you not.
Believe me, sir, the people are becom
ing just a little tired of so much decep
tion and untruthful teaching. The
men who don't know how to be honest
in the editorial writings of our great
religious papers will not be silently fol
lowed by a younger generation of schol
ars, who are altogether capable of mak
ing original research for themselves.
You object to four statements in my
recent article in the Boston Standard,
which I am glad to know you read, as
It is a sign you may yet, possibly, be
come a conservator of accurate histori
cal evidence.
In the first place, you deny this state
ment, taken from my Standard article:
Bancroft, the greatest historian our
country has vet produoed, asserts that
In the Revolutionary war the mass of
the Roman Catholics followed the
Jesuits in opposing the Interests of the
colonies, and that they turned out a
completed regiment in Philadelphia
for the British, and that nearly 600 of
them deserted from the American
army.
After quoting this you say, "This is
not what Bancroft says." Your state
ment shows that you are not a special
ist In the field of the Mb tor y of papal
evidence. Bancroft does eay It. How
ever, doctor, you will remember I did
not quote the language of Bancroft,
but made a declaration of what he as
serted to be true.

A LOCK OF GRAY HAIR.
Sensational Episode at Chllllcothe, tn
Which Father Mlggeel is Mentioned
Chillicothe, O., Aplil 8. A wo
man's cape and lock of gray hair on the
desk of Mayor Waddle this afternoon
told a story of the most sensational
happening here in many day. v
The parties implicated are Father
William MIggeel, rector of St. Peter's
Catholic church, and Mrs. Mary How
ard, a widow of Hillsboro. Mrs. How
ard claims she met Father Miggeel in
Hillsboro in 1885, and their friendship
ripened into intimacy.
Father Miggeel was called away from
Hillsboro and went to Cinoinnatl, then
to Dayton. She went with him as
housekeeper. When Father Miggeel
came here last year Mrs. Howard claims
he met a widow with whom he became
infatuated, and he subsequently dis
carded her.
Mrs. Howard came to this city today
to see him, and shortly before noon Of
ficer Hess was called to the parsonage
of St. Peter's church to arrest her.
She had a stormy interview with
Father Miggeel, in which she claims
he tore out her hair, pulled the fur off
her cape and struck her a violent blow
on one side of her face. Both parties
were before the mayor, but the case
was dismissed. Father Miggeel claims
the woman was Intoxicated and refused
to make any statement,

Washington, D. C, April 8. The
bill making appropriations for the Dis
trict of Columbia was reported to the
house to-day. It authorizes the dis
trict commissioners to contract for the
care and maintenance of paupers, sick
and helpless, and appropriates $94,100
for that purpose, with the proviso
"that no part of the money herein ap
propriated shall be paid for the pur
pose of maintaining or aiding by pay
ment for services or expenses or other
wise any church or religions denomina
tion or any institution or society which
is under sectarian or ecclesiastical con
trol." This is the only substantial
change made in the bill.
A Priest in the Toils.
Webster, S. D., April 3 A sensa
tional case was on trial here yesterday,
wherein Father Aledbert Suick, a
priest of Nutley township, was charged
with rape on the person of Agnes
Osowski, a domestic, employed by him.
Her testimony was to the effect that on
two different occasions he gained en
trance to her room and assaulted her.
The defendant denied the charge and
claimed it was a blackmailing scheme,
but was bound over. He was also sus
pended by his superior officer pending
investigation.
Defies the Sultan.
London, April 11. A Constantinople
special says that the Armenian Catho
lic patriarch has refused to resign at
the command of the Sultan. The Cath
olic patriarch declares that it will be
impossible for him to disobey the
pope's injunction to remain at his post.

''Drammer" Speaks Stxaagty Against
Yotiag fur the Maa Frsm Maine.
Can any consistent member of the
A. P. A. indorse or vote for Thomas B.
Reed for president, either asdelegate
at the Republican national convention
at St. Louis, or the ballot-box at the
election next fall, should he succeed In
being placed in nomination? I say
most emphatically, NO! they cannot.
And it Is not necessary to use .-as an
argument any of the many reasons as
signed by most of his opponents In the
different patriotic orders, such as the
letter from his friend, Pops Leo, offer
ing him congratulations on his being
placed in the speaker's cbatr at Wash
ington; his Intimate and friendly rela
tions with the commander of the papal
forces arrayed against the public
school, Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore;
his position on the appropriations for
Indian schools and others, any one of
which would be enough of iUelf to lose
any man the confidence of every voter
who claims to have any fear that the
Romanist is plotting to control the
situation in this country; for the same
Influence, the Jesuits, which In the
Republican party knifed Harrison and
elected Grover Cleveland, would. -drop
the Democratic party at any time, in
favor of Thomas B. Raed, oould 'thoy
hope to gain something for their
church by so doing. The oath of the
Jesuit puts him in a position where he
can have no party affiliations except as
he receives a directbenefit to his order.
Now, have they made a political deal
with Reed? or, in other words, has
Reed gone over to Rome?
Here is what he says himself (ac
cording to a Roman Catholio paper
printed In his own city the Columbian,
of Portland, Me.):
"The charge has been frequently
made of late that the Republican suc
cesses here and there through the coun
try are largely due to what Is known
as the A P. A. influence, as if .this in
tolerant, oath-bound organization was
naturally la affiliation with the Repub
lican principles. Now, as a Republi
can of the straightest sect, I utterly
repudiate any such insinuation, and,
speaking for myself, I would rather a
thousand times go down in honest de
feat with the unsullied flag of the
grand old party waving over me, than
to victory by such aid. And the man
who rests his hopes on this un-American,
foreign-born league, is foredoomed
to disaster, dishonor and defeat."
Does that sound like the utterances
of a man opposed to Rome? As you re
flect on it awhile, can you not detect
the flavor of a bid from the solid Ro
man vote? Now, this statement of
Thomas B. Reed was published in a
paper run in the interest of Father
Hurley and Bishop Healey, and sent
out to the Romanists all over the coun
try as the sentiment of Reed to show
that he was In favor of the papist as
against the Protestant movement, by
men who should know, and undoubt
edly did, that Reed would not object.
And I have heard Roman Catholic
Democrats say If Reed won the nomi
nation they would vote for him.
I have been asked by good A. P. A.
Republicans what I thought in regard
to it. My answer is this: "If Reed Is
willing that Roman Catholio priests
shall publish such a thing and not
dany it, no manly A. P. A. would hesi
tate a moment in bolting such a nomi
nee for president at such a critical
time as this. If Reed ever said he
would rather be defeated than elected
by A. P. A. votes, the Republican A.
P. A. who would vote for him must
have very little of true American in
dependence; and if it is untrue, then
certainly no man could care much for
the principles of our order and cast
his ballot for a man who would allow a
Roman priest to put such an uncalled
for attack on the American Protective
Association into his mouth without
protest. To sum it up: If Reed made
use of the language cited, he docs not
want anything to do with your A. P.
A. 's; if he did not say it and dare not
deny it, we most certainly do not want
him.
The times demand that you vote for
a clean-cut, out-spoken American Prot
estantnot political Jack papists.
Should any member so far stultify
himself as to throw away his vote by
giving it to Reed, he cannot expect
anything in return, what political
debts he has to pay will be to Rome.
If you are honest and believe what you
pretend that the country is in danger
from Roman influence, for God's sake
do not allow your love of party to place
your vote for a candidate who tells you
frankly that he loves you not, but
wishes to be elected by his friends, the
papists A good old Republican in
Portland says: "I would asoon see an
American Democrat president for the
next four years as Thomas B. Reed
with his debts to pay to Romanists."
The success of Reed simply means an
other link In the chain which Rome is
using to bind this country and control
our institutions. Can you, my friend,
use your influence in the slightest de
gree to place in the presidential chair
another man who is on friendly terms
with Rome?
But some friend says: "We must do
something to change these times.
True, but the very times of which you
complain are Roman times. President
Cleveland and his inefficient and dis
honest backers are the direct rrsult of
Roman priests in politics. Will you
continue to encourage the priest dab
bling la secular affairs by booming an
other favorite of the hierarchy?
Should you by your ballot fasten still
further Rome's grip on politic, you
will assist to perpetuate a condition
under which no heretic or his children
will ever oe any good times. Roman
control acd Roman times always mean
hard times for the Protestant.
That most vital and Important ques
tion should be settled this fall: Shall
Rome rule la American politics? You
will never have, in all human proba
bility, another such opportunity as
will be presented to make yourself
count. Your ballot this year may
mean the perpetuation of freedom and
the public schools. Just think of it:
the millions of A. P. A. voters edu
cated In the publlo schools are un
American from the standpoint of im
ported thugs and criminals, as well as
Jesuits, Roman bishops, priests and
politicians of the Reed stamp, who
with it distinctly understood that they
prefer the Roman vota to the A. P. A.
L?t us take him at his word and
give him the defeat he so earnestly de
sires. Reed's quoted remarks simply
mean "Keep off the grass! No A. P.
A. need apply."
I would impress this upon you,
"those who are not for us are against
u." But some one suggests: Reed
may not have said the above It may
be a trick of the papacy. Well, it you
are in doubt, give our Protestant insti
tutions and country the benefit of the
doubt. There are thousands of pollticl.
ans, but only one country. Vote and
work only for men who are without the
shadow of a doubt ProteBtants first, last
and always. ISoston Citizen.

Fat and the Priest.
Seldom his a better answer been
made than that of the poor Irishman
to a priest while defending himself for
reading the Bible. "But," said the
priest, "the Bible is for' the priests,
and not for the likes o' you." "Ah! but,
sir," he answered, "I was reading in
my Bible, 'you shall read It to your
children,' and sure the priests have no
children." "But Michael," says the
priest, "you cannot understand the
Bible. It is not for you 'to understand
it, my man." "Ah! very nwell, your
reverence, if I cannot understand it, it
will do roe no harm, and what I can
understand does me a heap of j good."
"Very well, Mike," said the priest,
"you must go to the church, and the
chruch will teach you. The church
will give you the milk of the''word."
"And where does the church get it but
out of the Bible? Ah! your reverence,
I would rather keep the cow myself. "
How They Do It There.
Protestant America can learn some
thing from Roman Catholio Italy. No
priest or nun there can teach in the
state schools; marriage is a civil, not
an ecclesiastical ceremony; it is illegal
to buy masses 'for the repose of souls
and school books are edited by the
state, and no book can be given a child
unless the Italian government stamp
is upon it.
