looked upon an one of t h moat prom
ising members of the Canadian priest
hood. Mr work In the reuse of tern
Mrenre bronchi mo Into special prom

ail over Canada, ami, Indeed, In the
Catholic dumb everywhere.
"In 1R51 Catholic bishops and clergy
rora all over North America met In
asjcret conclave at lliirTalo, N. Y and
fear the question waa discussed, and
It u decided to eeUe the cltlca of
North America for the Catholic
hurch. Tha plan adopted waa to
Ming Catholic emlgrante from Kurope
! sufficient number to gain control
f the city governmenta by popular
Tata. Tha attempt waa carried out to
ana eitent, and waa aucceaaful at
Mat In New York. It waa partlcu
Urly tha denim of tha church to get
tvseaeaalon of tha arhool fund In tha
arloua fltlea In ordpr to use It for
tha benefit of Catholicism. Tha writ
remembered struggle for tha expulsion
t tha Hlble from tbo public schools
fa Cincinnati In 1S70 waa tha out
growth of the action of tha conclave
to 1861.
"At this same conclave 1 waa assign
ed to go to Illinois with s band of
French Canadian Catholics and to
found s colony or coionlea. Colonists
also came from France, and early In
1G3 I founded my colony at fit. Anne,
Kankakee county, III. A chapel or
thurch was built, and wa had a con
gregation of about fiiiO aoula.
"In 18&8, after aevrral yrars of
Study and ninny trlnla, I determined
t leave tha Church of Rome, whone
octrlnea I no longer believed. It waa
on Battinlny evening t tint I reached
any final determination, and the next
morning I went Into the pulpit and
told my congregation of the atep I
waa about to titke. and my renmina
After talking to them for Iwo boura
I put the mutter to a vote, and all but
fifteen of my 300 pnrlehlonera ex
preened their Intention of following
m. Tnla action, when It became
known, created no little excitement all
over the country. About a year later
wa Joined the Chicago I'reabvtery. and
afterward the Canadlnn Pnabytery
to which wa atlll belong.
"Previous to this Abraham Lincoln
had defended me when I waa proee
uted by the church, and when, sums
time sfter our withdrawal from the
r hurch our colony waa theatened with
destruction from famine, be came for
ward and for our benefit delivered a
lecture, In which he denounced the or
der of the Ji'Hulla with tha greateat
boldness. This made our former
friendship sll the stronger,
"In 1802 g Canadian Jsxtilt priest
was converted through my teaching,
nd from Mm I first learned of g plot
vf thst order to SKsnNlnste Mr. Lin
coln. He told me thst the plot wss
rst laid In MAI. I went st once to
Wsshlngton, snd In s conference with
Mr. Lincoln warned him of wlmt I had
learned. He told me thnt ha was al
ready Infoimed of the matter by Mr,
ftsmuel I II, Morse, the telegraph In
ventor, who had hesrd It by chsncs
while In Rome. Mr. Morse wss not g
Csthollc.
"About year afterward ! convert
d another Jesuit priest, who had ab
solutely no knowledge of any other
convert, and by him I was told the
same story, I again went to Wash
ington and warned the president.
After the assnsslnntlon, while I was In
Ban Francisco, another Jesuit prlent
gave me, for a third time, Identically
the lams account of the plot In the
order against the president. While I
waa leeklng Information In regard to
the crime I met the Rev, F, A. Con
well, of Chicago, who related tbt fol
lowing: "Ninety mllea northwest of fit, Pajil,
Minn., la the little village of Ht.
Joseph, settled by Romsn Cathollea,
nd with g college for ths education
of priests. On the 14th of April, 1885,
at 6 o'clock In tha afternoon, two men
drove op to the village hotel; one was
the Rev, F. A. Conwcll. cbsplsln of
the first Minnesota regiment and the
other was Horace P. Dennett, of 8t
Cloud about ten miles eastward,
While Mr. Dennett was attending lo
the horse In the barn the landlord, J.
H. Llnnemnn .who haa charge of ths
friary, and was purveyor for the
prieata, told Chaplain Conwcll that
President Lincoln and Secretary Sew
rd were assassinated. And when
Mr. Dennett returned from the barn to
the tavern the landlord reiterated the
statement to both his guests.
"This was not later than 6:30 p. m.,
ud tha assassination of Lincoln did
Mt occur till about 10 p. m. Allow
ing; for the difference In time between
tc Joseph and Washington the news
reached 8t Joseph at least two hours
wfore It occarred.
"The two men make affidavit of the

"After Hie murder Fsther Clilnlrjiiy
went lo WnxhliiKlnn In 1IikuIh. lie
found that the Ititliience of Kotue st
the rspltnl was almimt supreme. The
only statesman who diired to face the
netnrlous Influence of Home wss (ten,
linker. Hut several other statesmen
confesHed thai without doubt the Jes
uits were at the bottom of Hie plot;
and sometime this would appear so
clearly In evidence before the mili
tary tribunal that It waa feared It
could not be kept from the public. Mra
Hurratt waa a Cthollc, and her house
was the common rendexvous of the
priests.
"Hooth, the assassin himself, wss
confirmed In this very city of Ilaltl
more. He waa but the tool of the
Jesuits. He wss taught by them that
the pope had called Jeff Davie his
dear aon, and had taken the aouthern
confederacy under bis protection. He
was taught thnt Lincoln wss an apos
tate, that be bad been baptised In the
Catholic religion, hnd rebelled against
it and broken bis oath of allegiance to
the pope. He waa taught that It was
bis religious duty to slay this Infa
mous enemy of his church. .
"Compare other murders known to
have been plotted and executed by
Jesulta with this one and you will
And that they resemble each other as
one drop of woter resemblea another.
Compnre the last hours of the Jesuit,
Itiivallliic, the assassin of Henry IV.,
who absolirtely refused to repent,
though suffering the most horrible
tortures on the rack, with Hooth, who,
with an nnset broken leg, the bone al
most puncturing the flesh, writes in
his daily memorandum: 'I can never
repent, though we bated to kill. Our
country owed all Its troubles to htm
(Lincoln), and (lod simply made me
the Instrument of his punishment.'
"I found thnt the Influence of Rome
wss almost supreme In Washington,
Heveral of the government men with
whom I conversed (old me that they
had not the least doubt thnt the Jesu
its were at the bottom of the crime
They were afraid to let the crime
come out lest the priests should be
implicated, and In the event of their
execution they knew that riots, blood,
fire and devastations must follow, and
these the country, In Its then divided
stale could not sustain."
Evading kcal Issues.
The weakness of the case of thoaa
who are vigorously opposing the Im
migration restriction bill i shown
by their persistent refusal to meet
fairly and squarely the real and es
sential Issue Involved In the proposal
of an educational test for new arrivals
The protest of the German societies
of Chicago and of ths league recently
organized In New York, ss well as
the arguments advanced In congress
by am h men as Senator Caffrey, deal
with but one aspect of the problem,
They harp upon the obvloua and ad
mitted fact thst Illiteracy Is not al
ways and necessarily a sign of vl
clousness and Incapacity, and Indulge
In Irrelevant emotional appeals to
principles which no friend of the edu
cational test dreams of surrendering,
Thnt Immigration has done much
for the development of the country Is
not questioned by any sane , man,
Thnt It can and will do still more Is
equally beyond dispute, Thst an edu
cational test If applied htvidrrd or
even fifty years ago, would have
barred out thoueanda of worthy, use
ful and desirable citizens, to the great
detriment of the country, la also
readily and cheerfully conceded. Why,
then, urge considerations that have
absolutely no besrlng upon the ques
tion we are railed upon to aettle here
and now?
What la this easentlal queatlon?
Rlmply this, whether or not the coun
try needs a rest from the work of ab
sorption and assimilation Imposed by
a practically unrestricted Immigra
tion. Today we only exclude paupers,
criminals, diseased persons and con
tract laborers. If we need no further
restriction In the Interest of the
American standard of wages and liv
ing, the educational teat Is Indeed un
neceasary and Improper; but those
who admit that present restrictive
measures are Inadequate are bound to
supply better and fairer test than
that of ability to read and write, a
test so perfect ss to exclude wll un
worthy applicants and admit all
worthy ones. The champlona of the
Immigration bill recognize that here
and there Injustice would result, but
they most emphatically deny that any
great number of desirable Immigrants
would be shut out or that the law
would stop Immigration. Are not the
labor organisations better authorities
on the need of further restriction than
the societies now fighting the Lodge
