Ba, proscripeon stopped no. with this
man. Recen,ly another case has been
added to the list. George Wilson. FORE
man Of the Engineer and Machinis,.'
Department At the Washington Navy
Yard, has been removed BY order Of the
Sec' esary Of the Navy. The man sp-
pointed in bis place is Michael E. Bright,
4 Roman Catholic.
The Washington American Organ
says that "Mr. Wilson has b. en- attach.
ed TO the Navy Yard from bis earlies,
youth" and that he Possesses skill aud

tina. the foreman is the mos, responsible

His successor, says the Organ. is q very
inferior man, and is no. cemp~,en. to dis
charge the duties OF the Office. Mr..
Wilson has always given entire sa,isfa, /.
lion to all concerned, and no iaul, was
ever found with him, even BY his enc.
lnies.
Such were the facts. Then why was
he removed Why proscribed' Tie
answer can be given - lie was not Ro-
man Ca'hotic. The Orgaa. in speakin,
Of the removal Of Mr.. Wilson. says:
