Tbe pres ent was from tome of his friends who had been associated with him In Mars lodire No. 130. K, of P., of which he is a past chancellor commander. Our government can look for trouble from Spain's Roman Catholic sympa' thliers in this country In other quar ters than those now being attacked We expect the next thing these Intern al enemies will assail will be the armor plate works, the gun factories and the coal mines, followed by the destruction of the lighting plants of the large cities, during which will occur a reign of terror. Wise Protestants will buy arms and ammunition. Trouble is vetting nearer every day. Don't be like the foolish virgins in Christ's par able. Last week we stated that It would be just like Rome to blow up and destroy our arsenals, magazines and powder mills. Today we can say a fire was started in the powder mill near Santa Cruz, Cal., Tuesday and that it is sup posed to have been the work of a Span leh agent; and that Wednesday night the arsenal at New Orleans was broken open and a quantity of dynamite taken That, probably, was also done by Spanish agent. Spain's agents are all Roman Catholics. Near the close of last week, and after conT(ncel U4 that he has enough uerve President McKlnley bad signed the to eve. extrahazardous question.

Then the ven erable John Sherman, tht Secretary of State, stepped down and his assistant, Mr. Day, was appointed to his place. Mr. Gage is still a member of the cabi net and will be until he succeeds in raising the necessary funds to carry on the war. then, unless he catches the war spirit, he may resign. During the time those misleading statements were being sent out John Ireland was in Washington. Whether they emanated from htm or not we do not know, but as he was a peace at any price advocate, and as he knew the av erage Republican, like the average Democrat, would endorte any policy their leaders might choose to adopt, he may have inspired many of those dis patches for the purpose of securing the least one of their friend for tbe bal ance of this year. It only costs One (tl) Dollar, and the nation should be awak ened to the real and awlful danger that Is almost upon us. There is a move in certain quarters to stir up discord among the state mi litiamen. The plea is put for ward that if they cannot enlist as a company they should not enlist at all. This looks to us like a pretty flimsy excuse. It may serve to keep the Hibernian Rifles at home in the several states, but that is about as far as it will reach, for loyal men in the ranks will not question the wisdom of the governor, or make the mistake of supposing that be would divide lcc&l companies and jump inex perienced men over the heads of their officers. The average governor Is a man of sense, whether we agree with blm politically or not, and we think he can be trusted to treat his soldiers with the utmost justice. This is es pecially true of the governor of Nebraska. Our friend John Raid, the Sixteenth Street jeweler, was married the first of the week to a most estimable lady. The Jesuit. Dr. Fisher of the Yale university, says, in his church history; The teach ing of the Spaniard, Mariana, one of their Jesuit writers, that regicide waa lawful, was believed to have lead to tho murder of Henry IV of France. Tbe assassination of his predecessor, Herry III as well as William of Orange, was traced by manv to the p isonous doc trines of the Jesuit teachers." A lap ef the Called State.

The governor of Nebraska Is reported to have said that he had received more than one hundred applications for com missions to organize a company. We suggest that the governor call the ap plicants all to Lincoln, have them mustered into service in two companies and let them choose their officers by lot. Each man, after he signs the muster roll, to draw an envelope con taining a card designating his rank We can't expect to get permission to furnish two hundred companies in ad dition to the state militia, and every man who offered to get up a company did it, no doubt, for the pure and un selfish motive of serving his country and not for tbe salary attached to a captaincy. What say you, Governor? No Papal Interference. At the last conference in New York the ministers of the M. K. church, by a vote of 165 to 3, adopted the followln g resolution: 'We want no overtures from our government for settlement of the burn ing questions confronting us as a nation based upon propositions emanating from Rome. Let efforts emanating from that source exhaust themselves in humanizing and civilizing Spain American institutions will guard their own honor."
