FONENTING RELIGIOUS STRIFE.


The Standard published yesterday with
spread eagle display and sensational COM
ments, what purports to be q copy of a
letter from some person in New Jersey to
Mr.. Blaine. In this publication the repu-
ted author represents New Jersey as IA
vorable to Mr.. Blaine as a candidate for
the Presidency, and mentions the exist
ence of u secret society opposed to the
Catholics, to which he SAYS President
Grant belongs and which he advises Mr..
Blaine to join. This is very shadowy ba-
sis on which to predicate the Examinations
Of the Standard. The letter may be for
gerry. 1t may be the invention of some
mischief maker orirresponsible busy body.
Allowing it to be genuine. however, it is
only the utterance of a single individual,
expressing his own views and not those
OF President Grant or Mr.. Blaine. Had
the Standard read Understandings the re-
cent letter of Mr.. Blaine in regard to non
sectarian schools. il would have seen there
in fair proposition to quench the fires Of
sectarian strife and doaway with any pre-
text for Catholic or anti-Catholic parties.
fthe "black flag Of religious hate is to
bc raised in this country, as the Standard
declares, it will not be caused by those
who advocate banishing sectarianism from
the schools. but by those who have been
c!amoring for years to either abolish the
schools or make them sectarian, and who
rely upon the democratic party to aid
