HAD TO Go?-Bishop Lafieche, OF
Three Rivers Diocese, Canada, has
signed decree ordering the expulsion
of Jesuits from that diocese on the
ground that they have unduly infu'
enced Catholics to.change their wills on
their death beds in favor of the Jesuits.
Well, where will they go when march
ed out of Canada? AS matter of
course, they will take bee-line for the
United States. This country is their
Eden; here they can practice their
arts, and engage in their deviltry, with
no one to modest or make them afraid.
And, after awhile, these busy, artful,
underhanded and scheming political
meddlers, in the guise of religion, will
spring a mine under US, and then we
shall see some things, that Americans
hold dear, blown into flinders. AS all
order, they have no more right to place
amongst us than they have in those
countries from which they have been
driven. No man who takes the Jesuit's
oath has any right to citizenship in the
United States. The country would
he better off if it was rid of the last one
of them.
