When he could escape being even perceived by Rodin, he glided from the shop crossed the hall and at once mounted to the stairs, which led to the apartments of Philemon and Rose-Pompon. "Mv dear Mr. Charlemagne," said Mother Ar sene to Rodin, who had just crossed the thres hold. "You come twice in a day; that is some thing extremely rare." " " You are too polite, my good lady," said Rodin, with a very courteous bow; and he entered the shop of the greengrocer. (To be Continued.) l'apal Sct-l!n( U. As I see it the pope, and especially Archbishop Ireland, and even the en tire papal hierarchy of this country have met with a decided set-back from which they msy never recover. And it would seem that God has chosen this war with Spain as the means of accom plishing this result as will doubtless toe developed more ful'y in the future. There was a time when patriotic Amer icans believed that President McKln'e j would have a clear American adminis tration, but when It was found whom he had chosen for his special advisers and who were selected to fill his ap pointments, his patriotic American friends, who elected him president, were very much disappointed. But such was the papal pressure brought to bear upon him by Romanized politi cians, especially by Archbishop Ireland and other papists of great influence, that he had not strength of backbone enough to stand up against them but yielded to their requests and was used very largely to carry out their pur poses. Passing over many Roman Cath olic appointments of the president for want of space, I will refer to the nomi nation of McKenna to the judgeship in the supreme court of the United States who was a Roman Catholic. It was believed by many that the president would not do such a thing but he did it nevertheless; and so Romanized was the Senate that it quickly confirmed his nomination. And up to this time the pope, Archbishop Ireland and the whole papal hierarchy of this country, in Washington, D. C, had almost every thing in politics their own way and were exulting in their popular influence and political power. But the present war with Spain has already put a decided damper upoa papal prospects in this country. The pope undertook through Archbishop Ireland to strongly advise the Presi dent, his cabinet and Congress against war with Spain, evidently not for hu manity's sake, for why did he not at tend to that matter before, but simply because he knew that war with Spain, if successful, would prove disastrous if not ruinous to the "holy catholic church" as a political power in this country and perhaps throughout the world. Hence the infallible pope did in this instance prove himself to be fallible in misjudging altogether the patriotism, humanity and grit of the American people, and over-rated his own i mportance as a man, as a foreign er with no political or civil authority in our government. And how must the pope and Archbishop Ireland and his whole posse of papal lieutenants have felt when they were informed in sub stance by Congress that their advice was of no account in this war with Spain and that it did not want and would not accept any more inter'erence from any papal sourca in reference to Cuban affairs, and that the American government was amply able to manage its own affairs and has shaken rtT, I trust forever, the icfluenca of the old man on the bank of the Tiber who, with other papists, have been so med dleome in the affairs ef state and gen eral politics. Now then we sincerely hope that neither the President or any Congress man will ever again cater to Rome for place or power in politics under any circumstances, realizing that it would be far more honorable and glorious to be assassinated by papists, if it must be, than to turn traitor to our American principles, to our country ard to hu manity, thus identifying ourselves with papal politics. But I am aware that citizens in high or low positions whose first allegiance is to the pope of Rome cannot be good and loyal to this gov ernment and, if in office, will be likely to be turned down at the next election. But one thing is sure, the Roman car dinals, archbishops, bishops and priests and the rank and file will from now on be watched very closely, not to much for what they sy, for their word can not be depended upon for one moment when the "holy church" is concerned, but for what they do and the influence they exert upon others. And now let me say a word to our pa triotic Americans. As I see it, the pa pal political power in congress is now broken and if that body caters no more to Romanism and will not accept again its un-American counsels itwill continue to decrease until congress shall become truly American, extending to every de partment of government throughout the nation. Now is the time for vig orous action in politics. Powerful ar guments can be drawn from the pres ent noble and truly patriotic stand both of Congress and of the President. Then as Congress becomes sick at heart of Romanism and its counselors, as I hops it will, whatever political party may be in power, let the begging nuns be expelled from the government buildings in Washington, D. C; the papal prison nunneries be opened at any time to public inspection; the con fessional be abolished, and also collect ing money for masses under false pre tenses, all of which are un-American, greatly injurious to morals and to the welfare of the state which all good cit izens are bound to protect. J. G. P. the ignoraDt Spaniards see? Will they learn that parochial schools can not compete with public schools? In these days when battles are fought with machinery and by machinists, popish catechisms and popish prayers with bead counting are useless. Before this can appear in the columns of your most excellent paper, another demon stration of the superiority of our public schools and open Bible over parochial and popish prayer books will probably be given near Cuba. Porto Rico has already witnessed the bombardment and the destruction of its forts at San Juan. All this terrible war might have been saved, if Cleveland had done his duty like an honest man, when he was in the White House! And McKinley, had he listened to the A. P. A. leaders who elected him, could have cut it short; but he listened to archbishops and cardinals from the Romish power, and trusted in their promises. He may learn that he was leaning on a broken reed! And yet he goes on appointing popish generals and popish priests to carry on our war against the prayers of the pope and his popish followers! How can a priest pray for the success of our arms, when he knows the pope is praying for the success of his beloved Spain? Or how can Brigadier General Coppinger, a strong Roman Catholic, plot to thwart the prayers of the pope? Our country is at this moment over run with Roman Catholic spies. One by the name assumed of Downing who was recently arrested has commit ted suicide in the barracks here, leav ing many papers showing that the Ro man Catholics are mostly for Spain. This is a war for freedom of conscience and the pope is against it. Chase Roys. Lesson of the War. Washington, D. C, May 12, 1898.
