ninety days this summer. About one-half
the cheese was made in thirty days, the last
sixty dhys being very unfavorable for the

THE PRESENT DANGER.

The Irish Catholics of New York city
number one third of its voting population,
and with their corrupt Democratic asso-
ciates control the city. Does any one sup
pose that they would have attempted to
bully and disperse peaceable protestant
procession, If they had not good reason to
know that Mayor Hall, Superintendent
Kelso, and the whole Democratic Tam
many ring would not secretly aid or coun-
tenanoe them? Would they have under
taken such q demonstration il they had
anticipated firm resolute municipal gov
eminent to defeat them? Not at all. They
know that for years whenever it suited
them, they have bullied protestant de-
monstrations. Last year they set upon
the Orangemen and almost unmolested
dispersed them by brute mob force.
They knew the sympathies OF the city
authorities were with them this year, and
they did not dream that even a strong
public sentiment could interfere with them
and force the authorities to protect their
hated rivals.
But public sentiment, backed by the TIT
6une, Times, Post and Herald drove even
Gov. Hoffman, the tool OF Tweed and his
irish DULLES, to change front and give the
Orangemen the rights of freemen. 1t was
this outraged and indignant public feeling
that drove the Governor to undo what Hail
and Kelso had done. II it was not public
sentiment that did it, why did he not
promptly issue his proclamation as soon as
Mayor Hall forbid the Orangemen to
march in procession Then was the time
to act If he was anxious to give these
Protestant foreigners the privileges of citi-
zens of this free Republic
The whole truth of the matter is that
the Irish Catholics of New York unless
restrained by laws, firmly and fearlessly
executed, will convert that city govern
ment into the intolerant tyranical, cor
rupt government suited to the spirit and
objects of their church. If they could.
they would convert the metropolis of the
continent into hierarchy, with the Pope
and his infallible dogma at its head, and
use its immense revenues to subvert free
government in America, and give il over
10 the clutches of its priest-rdden, anti
American, Republican church. This |
is the issue we must meet in this country,
and we must meet it now. The Romish |
by its recent bold, unblushing ag-
gressions, stands emasculated of its plausi- |
bic preteXts, of its cunning devices to win |
public favor, and stands out to Protestants |
in all its dangerous features. 1t is church |
that seeks to gain political control in this |
country, to use our institutions and our |
mighty power to prosecute the religious !
dogmas 1t holds. II is standing menace |
to civil and religious liberty, and as such |
ought to be fought. We are not appealing |
to idle fears or prejudices Facts point but |
one way, and we cannot shrink from the |
struggle.
