LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Catholic Citizens and Their Right

TO the Editor Of the indianapolis Journal:
Many German citizens and good Catholics
have certainly read the article in last Satur-
days issue of the Journal, The Catholics and
the Labor Signal, translated from the German
Catholic weekly, the Glocke. 1t is indeed time
that every good Catholic or Christian should
stand up and rebuke with indignation these re-
peated slsnderous attacks and ma
licious denunciations of our clergy and people.
We thankful to the editor of the
Indianapolis Journal who made the first stem in
that direction and we earnestly hope that the
good example viii be followed by the respecta-
BILE press in this State and county.
The Catholic people and Christian laborers have
not and never had anything to do with anarch-
ism and anarchistic tendencies They respect
and love the government, and also the officers of
state and church. They respect their Christian
neighbors and friends, no matter what
their religious or political belief may be,
and the laws Of our church instruct and tell
us TO do so. The editor of the so-called LABOR
Signal must be, indeed great worker. end an
adept in malicious falsehoods and misrepresenta
tons. He is certainly one of those reformers
whose reform" means destruction; whose re-
ligion is malice and SANDER, and whose politics
is anarchism How can he say that the Catholic
clergy is disfranchised by order of their supe-
riors and bishops, prevented from exercising
their right as citizens. and from casting their
votes LOT WHOm anu whenever Jn6y pleaSes How

when the train which bore her husband rolled
into the depot. but without waiting to refresh
themselves they secured fresh horse and by
daylight they were again at Marion. The town
was still full or people pacing the Streets but on
perceiving that General Logan had really ar
rived and on receiving his promise to address
them 1T IL o'clock, they made no demonstration.
That was morning the people of southern IL
linois will never forget At the hour appointed
from which the General addressed the vast
dience. There were those present who had
sworn to take his life if he declared for the
Union, but at the conclusion of the speech he
quietly got down from the wagon and was not
disturbed.
In reference to the often published stories of
his position at the outbreak of the war, General
Logan. IN 1876. published card two columns or
more long, containing affidavits from people
who were familiar with the facts and were his
associates at the time A Chicago paper pub
lished story that the General attempted 90
raise regiment for the Confederacy, and pre-
sented an affidavit made in 1866 by one John
Wheatley, who claimed that Logan endeavored
to persuade him anj others to join the Confed-
eracy, and claimed to be raising regiment for
its support. Among other afhdavits procured
oy General Logan at that time was one by Col
Thorndyke Brooks. the only man in Illinois who
recruited a company of troops for service on the
confederate side. Brooks wrote Logan as fol-
lows:
The Hon. John A. Logan:
Dear Sir-Your letter of this date is received and,
in reply to your request for vndication my hands
will state that II have read the statement published
in the New York World and other PAPERS purporting

John g. Wheatlev deposes that he of the

John A. Logan that said Logan conducted tho

that Logan chose this crossngpace in order to avoid
the Union troops stationed at Caro that Logan left

Republicans in this part of the State are some
what surprised to see the names of Messrs. Har-
ris and Calkins among those who appear in the
list of apologists and defenders of one intimately
connected with the recent forgery of election re-.
turns in Marion county, if not himself one of the
guilty persons. That they have thus arrayed
hereabouts as a declaration of the fact that they
have no aspiration to preferment at the hands OF
the Republican party Major Calkins having
failed in has race for Governor two years ago,
and Mr.. Harris having just been defeated in the
Congressional contest in the capital district it is
