OMAHA , Oct. 27. To the Editor Of Th Beer The rumors have been and are cor stantly spreading about the St. Paul's churc lawsuit , and people perhaps think that It the whole congregation that harmonizes wit the suit. Not o , for there arc only thirl ] five Ignorant nnd cspcc ally one Ignoramus- persons who try to get everything their ow way and the property under their person ; direction. Wo are and always have been i about 105 parishioners who have always sir ported the church , while they who ore tr ; Ing to run everything consist of about thlrt ; flve people who never paid anything , ar not as they quoted on July 25 , 1881 , "Oi side la composed of about 100 parlshtonci who have always supported the church , whl the other aide consltts of about twenty-five , \Vo simply throw defiance at them for th statement. They claim that they have bee swindled. Who ever respects and hone that know them ? It Is simply the coi trary How can nny sensible person b Have that these thirty-five people nre on tl right path and the 165 on the wrong ? Thei thirty-five people managed , when they sa they could not swindle the congregation ar more through deceltfulnees , to get rid i the lawful priests that labored for their hai plness and welfare , and secured an unknow man by the name of Stanislaus Kamln , wt knows nothing about our church matter to hold services for them , thereby severlr themselves from the b shop's control nr calling themselves Independent. They dee themselves Independent from the pope , t ) bishops and all authorities o the Home Catholic church. Should we , by far the majority , as sa before , abandon the church In which y have worshiped In the faith of our father Emphatically , no ! Wo shall try to ha- an Injunction on the church until all the troubles are settled. Wo give them ccrta time to remove from the premises , and not we shall force them by law , If there nny' law at all. Should tills majority ylc to thefce thirty-five people ? About July 2 1891 , these thirty-five people stated In tl World-Herald : "Tho church property w purchased and the bu'ldlngs erected nnd pa for by the parishioners before we ever h a priest. " This , we say , Is untrue , ai from this one must judge , that everythli was in readiness , only to secure a prle and have services held. First of all tlir lots were purchased , but not entirely pa for , and as there was no church on the the congregation rented a vacant hou from Metz Bros. , and only then secured priest. This pastor was selected by t : congregation ns their guardian of nil thins ami only then the erection of the chun building was begun. We , the underslgne uphold all the above statements. A.
