THE AMERICAN 5 THE PARTING OF THE WAYS. Peoria, IlliooU, Mr II, im. Editor The American: The Intel llgent student of history would reach the conclusion that both the great old parties of this country are in danger of disintegration. There is conclusive evidence of this fact, we know there are men who are leaders in both the great old parties who are determined, at the risk of wrecking the country, to establish the papacy and keep their grip on what they have already cured. They would paralyze Industry, fetter the sails of commerce and provoke unl ersal bankruptcy. It Is useless worse than useless to say that these men are honest They are afflicted with a blindness sent by the gods precedent to distruction. Those men belonging to both the Democratic and Republl can parties, and some are in the Popu list party, may be temporarily success ful. The greed of the papacy may triumph over the patriotic people through the Republican party as an ally. They know .that they have wrecked the Democratic party as a national organization. But there will be a terrible awakening. Nothing is grander than the wrath of an outraged people, armed with a consciousness of right and that powerful weapon, the ballot The appeal to the so-called representatives of the 'people comes from the great and growing organiza tions of the patriotic American citi lens from every section of the country from every southern state, western state, the mighty ranges where men delve day and night to supply the ne cesBitles of life, and from the golden sands of the Pacifio coast They ask their representatives to free them from a European bondage greater than that which caused our forefathers to shoul der muskets and march through snow with bleeding feet for relief. The ap peal may be in vain; yet what they seek will come just as surely as God's sun light comes with breaking away of darkness. The two old parties must bear in mind that the existence of neither Is necessary to the salvation of even the well-being of the country. The Demo cratic party favoring slavery and Ro manism flourished for awhile, and then was wiped out entirely, buried so deeply that it scarce dared to show its head for thirty years. The Republl can party lives on deeds done in the past, until the patriotic people now rise up and ask again for acts. The same patriotic spirit of the people that buried the Whig party, that exiled the Democratic party, will rebuke the Republican party. It is capable of form' ing another party, founded on a de mand for just laws, their enforcement and non-interference from the Roman hierarchy... They must bear in mind that the parties and chief magistrates die, but the spirit of patriotism in a few people never dies. They have come to the parting of the ways. Pa trlotism and partisanship must part company. It is the duty of all pa triotic citizens to lend their best ef forts to the task of looking at the causes of this great patriotic organiza tion and its results, fairly and intelli gently. You and I are living in a grand epoch of the world's history. It is the duty to-day of every true, loyal man to throw aside his partisanship, These are pivotal times to the nation, states, cities and individuals. I cannot understand why we are at the present time discussing means and measures for the suppression and overthrow of the Roman Catholic intermeddlera when the opsn way of relief lies before us. I cannot understand why we should appeal and re-echo cries for action Act now, in this eternal "now." Some will Bay, whatever ought to be will be, Be still 1 It is hard my friends to keep still, I believe God's moulding porcess Is going on. In all times of great pub lic exigency God raises up men and fits them to do his work. The present time needs an earnest and alarming voice to cry day and night in every city of the United States. Now is the time men of action are wanted whose patriotism and ceaseless energy is the voice with which to arouse and awake the nation. Now is the time. There Mrt. Xnaign B.

Is need of men with the courage of heroes and the faith of martyrs to hew down the thorns and temples of Ini quity with the ballot, and if seed be, to meet the armed forces of the hier archy on the bloody field. Sometimes we hear the Americrn Protective As sociation is a failure. On one occa sion while Napoleon was In the midst of his wonderful Italian campaign, an officer rode up to him with the an nouncement that the battle was lost It may be true, said Napoleon, but there is yet time before the sun goes down for another fight And the dauntless corporal left the field a victor. If the A. P. A. cause has proven fur tile (which Is not true) there is yet time to fight another battle, with W. S. Linton as our general. It Is to the Patrlotio American party the country is now looking, not alone because it has and possesses the power, but be cause it has solemnly promised to do, and will do exactly what the country is now asking it to do. The Democrat or Republican A. P. A. representative and the senator who falters now be cause of patronage is a slave by the side of whom the hierarchy are free and Independent. And as patriotic citizens we must forever withdraw our support from any man nominated at the old party national convention, un less he be a man who is known to be heartily in accord with our principles, Friends, we are in the midst of an lrre pressible conflict This nation is be coming one of saloons and anarchists, we are the dumping ground for the na tions of the world. Let us close the gates against foreign population this day, and tell them in decided language to keep away from our shores or we will lay hands on them. We have enough of them now, inside the nation on the throne, from Satolli down to the bum, and we present the humiliating spectacle to the world of being on our knees before them, doing homage to them and acceding to all their wishes and demands. Friends, to every ques tion there are two sides, but only one right side. Which side are you on, my Protestant friend? Are you like some mothers who give their children opiates to stop their crying, and do nothing to remove the cause of pain? Do you hope to soothe us with partisan politics, by munching Republican and Democratic opiates, instead of stopping the cause of future encroachments from papal countries? Patriotism is grad ually crystallizing into action. It Is sound patriotism that takes the force of law. Have faith in true patriotism never in partisan politics. The great surge of party political members rolls up noisely and Imposingly, but flattens out on shore, and slides back into the mud of oblivion. True patriotism is the ocean itself, calm in its rest, eternal in its power. The storms and tumultuous thunders of partisan rage and bigoted wrong will pause in their travel around this country and listen to this powerful patrlotio voice. And if the darkness of night comes down to veil it for a time it is still there, beat ing on with the same victorious pulse, and waiting for the attack. A right patriotism cannot die, for its life is in the moral citizen, which is the life of the nation's government. I believe that the American people are gather ing for the conflict By the circulation of our patriotic press throughout the land the summons has gone forth. Who doubts the answer coming? It aroused enthusiasm scattered embers can never burn like a concentrated fire. It has a wonderful influence. We are nearing the end of an administra tion which Is largely controlled by the Catholic hierarchy. There are yet but six months more before we sb all be called to join that wild procession of partisans to help elect the nominee of their choice and hear (if we refuse) those shrieks, the most awful that human voices have ever uttered Cru- cify the d b A. P. A.'s! Crucify them. Yours in F. P. and P., c. c. c. THE A. P. A. AND POLITICS. Independence of all Parties Held to be the Only Good Policy. Washington, May 15. The annual address of President W. J. H. Tray nor of the A. P. A. was given to the news papers last night after it had been care fully edited by a special committee and much of it cut out Of the political phases of the order he said: "The American Protective Association is to day a recognized factor in American politics, whose favor is openly courted by political leaders, organizers and candidates for public office, who, a year or two ago, Ignored, treated with contempt or denounced it The A. P. A. is a standing menace to the perpe tuity of every party, being composed, as it is, of the members of every party. So long as it remains unmoved by threats, unyielding to the pressure of party machines, It will be treated and respected by every party which dares not incorporate the platform of the order as its own. There are a few Re publicans, such as Linton of Michigan, Gear of Iowa, Bradley of Kentucky, Stone of Missouri, who have been fear less In their endorsement of our princi ples, but the question should be asked and answered here and now whether while the A. P. A. -ism of these men Is tolerated by the party for the A. P. A. votes which each of them carries be hind him, what assurance have we that this toleration will not erase the moment the votes have been de livered?" The president expressed regret that the A. P. A. had In some states been used by party machines. Be discour aged any attempt to secure the nomina tion of a member of the order for the presidency by either party. Referring to the advisory board which created a sensation by its attack upon McKinley he said: "A source of prospective dan ger is the national advisory board, as it is at preseut constructed. In Its present form it is in danger at any time of coming into collision with the supreme executive board, which is the supreme council out of the session, and undoubtedly the superior of all other boards. At present it recognizes no su perior but the supreme council In ses sion, and may pursue one policy while the supreme president and his cabinet pursue one entirely opposed to It" Mr. Traynor recommended that no candidate for a aational political office should receive the endorsement of the board until all state councils should have passed upon him, that no notlflca tions of a political nature from state or supreme council be mandatory, but merely advisory. The only references to church mat ters in the address are the following: "A well-meaning and by no means un important eection of the order has arisen which advocates peace with the priest and his subjects and harmony between them and the members of the order. Some would even go so far as to negotiate with them politically, than which nothing could be more danger ous to the perpetuity of the association Others go so far as to take the position that a member of the order possesses the right to determine for himself the question of the loyalty or disloyalty of any papist postulant for office and re serves to himself the right to persuade others to vote for said papist. Such a contention is not only absolutely un tenable, but highly dangerous. The candidate voluntarily renounces the right of private judgment in this essen tial when he becomes a member of the order. It is a Bolemn compact which he can neither modify nor amend. The keystone of the A. P. A. is the fact that a papist, no matter how liberal nominally, Is not a consistent citizen of the United States. Entire renuncia' tion of the papacy must precede his ao' ceptance of our association as a candl date worthy of its suffrages." Five congressmen spoke before the council this afternoon. Among these were Messrs. Linton of Michigan and Hilborn of California. The report of the committee on agi tation was taken up. This took the ground that agitation without educa tion was dangerous to the cause, c Edu cation, it was held, should come first, and it was recommended that a bureau of information should be establlshed,to consist of the supreme president and one member of each of the various state councils. The main point of the report, however, was the recommenda tion that all of the property in the United States except such as was owned and used by national, state or munici pal organizations should be taxed. The report aroused warm discussions, but was adopted. The executive board Is working on its report to the council and will sub mit it early to-morrow. Father trhard Found Guilty. Father Lawrence Erhard of Some- nauk, De Kalb country, was called be fore Judge Grosscup in the federal court this morning charged with vio lating the mail laws in sending a letter to Mrs. C. Berger of his parish. The priest wrote the letter in discharge of what he considered his duty. Mrs. Berger was engaged to marry a man who had been divorced from his wife. The priest was unable to see her per sonally, and he wrote her a letter In which he told her that it was against the canons of the church for one to marry another who had been divorced. He concluded by telling her that in the eyes of the church she would not be a respected woman, saying: "I call upon the Almighty to strike you with a loathsome disease that you may be an example to the future generations of the parish." Father Erhard admitted writing the letter, and submitted whether it came under the postal ban. The jury de cided that it did and rendered a ver dict of guilty. The court said he would pass sentence on Friday. Chicago Jour nal, May 19. Priest Charged With a Serious Offense. Bay City, Mich., May 14. The Rev. Marian Mathowski, pastor of St J Stanislaus church, was arrested at 9:30 this morning on a warrant sworn out by Valentine Cwkllnskl, who charges that Mathowski mistreated his daugh ter Marta the night of February 19 last in the church parsonage. The girl was 14 years old January 7, 1896. Mathowski, through his attorneys, waived reading of the information and pleaded not guilty. The examination was set for Wednesday, May 20. Ball in the sum of $1,000 was furnished. When down town drop In at John Rudd's and leave your watch, if it is out of repair, to be fixed, 317 No. 16 St The American to Jan. 1, 1897, 50c. A WKOMi ED tilKL. The Grand Jary After l'rlrtt C'ennlff, Fer Sedut'tluB. The Louisville evening Timet, of May 14th, says the grand jury is in vestigating a charge of seduction against priest Rev. James Conn iff, of this city. He is charged with seduc ing Miss Tillle Pogjenburg, of Griffith avenue. The priest is said to be In CbKago, and Miss Poggenburg Is la such a delicate condition that she can not even be conveyed before the grand jury In a carriage. The Time further adds, that the A. P. A. is supposed to be behind the investigation. The report alluded to In the Times has been rife for some weeks in the western part of the city, and we have been repeatedly urged to give it pub licity, but preferred that the matter should reach the public through offi cial sources. What we heard however, was that Miss Poggenburg was sent to Priest Conn Iff to get him to officiate at a tuneral. While in his parlor, he seized her and virtually committed a rape, defying her to tell her parents, when she threatened to do so. When her condition became such that she could no longer conceal her shame, sho told the whole circumstance to her mother. After offering various sums to com promise, ranging from a hundred up to a thousand dollars and failing, Priest Conniff fled to parts unknown. No doubt Influences are now at work to keep Miss Tillle from appearing be fore the grand jury. No ono can blame her for this reluctance, however. But the A P. A., we are told, are behind the prosecution. Was ever a higher compliment paid, unmerited though it may be, to the American Protective Association? A tender girl, less than sixteen, whom to know carnally, even by her consent, is a peni tentiary offense, with a penalty of from three to five years, is assaulted by a priest when she goes to him with a bowed heart to invite him to assist at a funeral. The church authorities hide the culprit, and spirit him away, John Surratt like. The father, when told to get a club and beat the priest's brains out, answered, that I "can't do anything to a priest," and only the A. P. A. is left to take steps to satisfy offended justice' and avenge outraged innocence. Well may every Catholic mother thank her God that the A. P. A. has come. Freedom's Banner, 1au- isvilk. A Curious Prophecy. Over forty years ago an old German hermit published in a Bavarian paper a curious prophecy. In it he foretold the Austro-Russian and Franco-Russian wars, the death of Pope Pius and the Turko-Russlan debate at arms. He said that Gamany would have three emperors in one year before the end of the century, and indicated the death of two United States presidents by as sassination. All these things have come to pass. In the same article he said that when the twentieth century opens great seismic disturbances will take place, which will cause the submersion of New York city and the western half of the city of Havana. Cuba is to break in two, while Florida and Lower Cali fornia are to suffer total extinction. The shock of earthquakes will raze buildings to the ground In almost every city on the continent, millions of lives and billions of dollars' worth of prop erty will be lost. There is to be a change in the economic conditions of almost every civilized nation. He foretells the growth of a democratic spirit in Eng' land, which will result in a revolution that will overthrow the present form of government and make the country a republic. He says the last ruler of England will be the best the country ever had, and the first president of the new nation will be one of the royal family. Queen Victoria Is by all odds the best ruler England ever had, and in a re cent speech the Prince of Wales said it was his desire to live to see England a republic. According to the hermit, Russia, France and Italy will form an alliance and will enter Into war with Turkey, This war is to be the outgrowth of Turkish persecution of Christian sub jects. This triple alliance will conquer the domain of the sick man of the east, At the expiration of the war complica tions will arise that will plunge Italy and France into war with Russia. The result will be that the two countries will be gobbled up by the northern power, and will cease to exist as Inde pendent nations. While war is being waged between them the pope will move the seat of Catholicism from Rome to some town In Southern Ire land. A rebellion will take place in the land of the shamrock, in which the country will become independent of England. Then a conflict will arise be tween the ultra-Catholics of the south of Ireland and the ultra-Protestants of the north, in which the southerners will be victorious. A kingdom will be established, and it is predicted that the reign of the first potentate will be come historic for its tyranny. The prophet paints a dark picture for the United States, He says at the close of the century a fueling of unrest will seise the people. This feeling will be the outgrowth of unequal social aod economic conditions. He predicts that the twenty-fifth president will be the last executive head of the United States. During his administration the mawes will break into open rebellion, and the established form of govern ment will be rent assunder, and for a year or more anarchy will prevail, When order shall be brought out of chaos six republics will be formed, with capitals at the following cities: San Franclsoo. Denver, New Orleans, St Louis, Washington and Boston. JVru York Mercury. Tbe W. A. I. A. In Council. Wednesday and Thursday of this week, says the Denver American, the State Council of the Woman's Amerl can Protective Association of Colorado was in annual session at Elks Hall in Denver. The attendance was larger than ever before, and deep interest was manifested in all the proceedings. Be sides a full representation from all tbe Denver councils, there were delegates present from almost all the important cities and towns in the slate, l'uoblo, Colorado Springs, Cripple Creek, As pen, Leadvllle, Creede, Anacont'a, Gunnison, and other mountain towns had earnest delegates in attendance. Owing to the nature of attending cir cumstances there was some diversity of opinion as to matters under con sideration by the state council, but there was no "bolting," as stated by an evening paper, and there was no seri ous dissension. The W. A . P. A. of Colorado is most prosperous in Denver and throughout the stato, and the good work already accomplished by the order will be supplemented by much more that will be even better. The election of state officers resulted in the re-election of those who served so faithfully and well last year, with the exception of the vice-president. Some of the minor officers, formerly elective, are, by the new supreme con stitution, now appointed by the state president The position of state presi dent is one of high honor, and there were, as usual, a number of aspirants for this distinguished preferment; but, as indicated by the American several times of late, a majority of the dele gates sustained Mrs. Klock and honored her by re-election. The elective officers chosen for the ensuing year are as follows: State President, Mrs. Frances S. Klock, of Denver. Second Vice-President, Miss Lizzie Capell, of Colorado Springs. State Treasurer, Mrs. Hattie Howze, of Denver. State Secretary, Mrs. Minnie Cook, of Denver. The American congratulates tbe or der upon so successful a session of the state council and also upon the wisdom used in the selection of state officials for the coming year. Century Called Down. The Central Baptist says editorially: The Century for May seems to us to go very much out of its way to deliver a trade against the order of the Ameri can Protective Association. It will be a great relief to the country to know that the editor of the Century will feel better after having freed his mind in this sort of way. It is none of our business to vindicate the A. P. A. or to justify its policy. No doubt It has made many blunders, and It may come to grief in its undertakings. However, no man with American spirit in his breast can fall to give hearty endorsement to the general principles which the order represents. That which seems to anger the editor of the Century more than anything else Is the refusal of congress to continue the appropriation of something like a half million dollars out of the public treasury to support Roman schools among the Indians. All the way through the Baptists have objected to any such sectarian appropriations, and all other denominations are now in ac cord with them. We do not question that the government ought to provide for the education of Indians as some sort of return for having taken from them their homes, but we most em phatically protest against the as sumption that the only way to educate the Indians is to open the public treasury to the practiced hands of grasping priests. It is time to stop the iniquity which has been going on for a good many years. To this great reform there ought to be added the withdrawal of all state and municipal aid to every institution which is under the control of any religious body. If to hold such principles Is A. P. A. ism, then this country is full of them. Call Fer Republican County Cos ren tion and Primaries. Headquarters Republican County Central Committee, Omaha, Nebraska, May 22, 1896.
