aDsolutism under the shelter of our free institutions. Driven into a frenzy of excitement and passion, and availing himself of the license afforded by the tolerant spirit of our laws, the Pope is rapidly trans ferring his best drilled and discip- lined Jesuitcal forces to America We are no longer left in doubt as to the nature of the inevitable con. flict laws between the two powers tho laws of the church must pre- vail over those of the state" The Catholic World, Volume XI., page 439, says: "While the states has some rights, she has them only in virtue and by permission of the su, perior authority, and that authori- ty can only be expressed through the church." When an American talks of freedom, he means the self. government of the people in all their civil and religious affairs when the Papal hierarchy talk of it, they mean the freedom of the Papacy to govern the world through the Pope,his agents and auxiliaries. He must be blind, indeed, who does not see that the great adversary of our cherished national liberty is the Papacy. Unwilling to submit to the necessity that has wrought out it's own defeat among those who are most familiar with it's enormi- ties and expressions, it is now in sheer desperation attacking civil liberties in the citadel of it's greatest strength, and seek to build out of the ruins of our free institutions the throne of its own despotic pow CT. Our amazement at the horrors which this iniquitous institution has wrought out, as the means of it's triumph, is only equaled by the surprise we experience at the pa tience with which the world now tolerates the insolent ambition which demands it's reconstruction A sense of duty and of self-respect demands that we should look this naughty and imperious foe full in the face, strip him of his disguises, unravel his reasonable plots, and meet him at every new point of at- tack. The battle-cry is sounding in our ears. The Baltimore con gress declared that America must be Roman Catholic" The issue is before us. Are we prepared to meet it? Shall we wait until they have pulled down the flag of freedom and planted the banner of Papal des- potism upon the grave of popular institutions? We need 8 little of the spirit exhibited by William the Conqueror, when Gregory the Sev- enth demanded his allegiance, The heroic Williams reply was T will pay tribute to the church, but will never swear allegiance. And if any monk of my dominions dares to carry tales to Rome, I will hang him on the highest tree of the for est" Let us, as liberty-loving fondly cherishing the institutions which we have inhei it. ed from our fathers, solemnly re- solve to maintain inviolate, against all hazards and in the face of all foes, the sacred right to enact our own laws, to preserve our own con- and to regulate our own affairs according to the popular sovereign will, entirely free from foreign interference or dictation.-I

The Illinois Senators will not follow the example of Platt and Conklin, but fight it out in the trenches. At least such is the pre- sumption. Meanwhile Quay and Dudley smile as they see Farwell and Cullom shivering out in the cold. The Senatorial family is not altogether harmonious and happy.

WM. T. SHERMAN does not care to affiliate with the negro, much used by the Republican party. On the 25th of March, 1865, while in the field, he wrote home as follows |: "Let those who love the negro bet ter than the white man follow me and we will see who loves his coun- try best. A negro, as such, is an excellent fellew, but he is not fit to marry, to associate or vote with me or mine." w. T. Sherman was a possible candidate for the Presi- dency in 1884 as Q Republican.

E. ". Nelson Indicted.

QaES since, aIter a two weeks aD- sence in search of parties who had been indicted by the grand jury. After travelling from Dan to Ber- sheeba, he located Nelson in New Mexico, in a dug out. He carried him to Albuquerque, and there Nel- son refused to come further, unless acquisition was had. That sort of conduct Is conclusive evidence to the average mind that Nelson is, well-innocent. An innocent man always requires all of the forms of the law to be compiled with. It is only the hardened criminals and guilty people who are prompt to meet their accusers.
 Nelson was County Recorder, and also Deputy District Clerk-Ruiz being the Clerk.
 We did not know it before, but we now learn that he was indicted at the same time Ruiz was for pre- senting and collecting a fraudulent claim against the county for about SS5O. The Sheriff went to Phoenix and applied to acting-Governor Murphy for a requisition, as Nelson demanded it. The Governor in formed him that he had heard from numerous parties of Nelson's in- dictment, and that it was, he be- lieved, political persecution, and that during investigation he de- clined to grant the requisition.
 Now there are one or two sugges- tions that occur to us arising out of this matter:
 1. Is it not the duty of the Gov ernor to inform the next grand jury who 1t was that violated it's secrets, and the law, in furnishing him with the information on which he, at present, bases his declination to is- sue tho requisition2 Possibly the District Attorney may invite the Governor to answer this question at the next term of court. We do not understand that any citizen is superior to the law, or has any rights which the humblest citizen does not enjoy, though he happens to be Governor.
 2. Didn't the Governor act lit tie arbitrarily in thus permitting an accused to escape on account of some private and questionable in- formation which he claims to have, in the face of considerable expense to this county in finding him? We think he dId, and venture the sug- gestion that he, in due course, will realize it.
 8. We are sorry to hear of Nell sons indictment for 1t will necessi- tate his return here, and we had re- garded his absence as a great bless ing, for he was an active mischief maker while here.
 4. While a newspaper has no right to prejudge a citizens case, and we carefully refrain from the expression of any opinion on the subject, but the idea will force it. self upon any mans mind, that the average man, conscious of his own integrity and innocence, would not have stickled over a requisition, but would have come along.
 ,. The claim of this being a po- litical persecution is all fol-de-rol | We doubt whether the grand jury knew Nelson's politics, and both parties were represented on it.
 The whole thing ought to teach | the Democrats wholesome lesson, and that is, that the Republicans  always stand by and protect each other, law or no law.

A RECENT dispatch from Wash lngton says the Committee on Rail- way S of the Pan-American Congress has made a report which will be adopted. recommending the con- struction of an international rail road to connect the railway systems of North America with those of the Argentine Republic, and declare their belief that such an enterprise will do more to promote the peace and commercial prospects of the American Republics than any other possible means. The details are elaborated, the first of which is an international commission of engi- neers, with headquarters at Wash ington, to direct the typographical, geographical and mineralogical sur vey route from the City of Mexico south. President Harrison is said to be deeply interested in the pro- feet.

 Mir. Colin Cameron, of the San Rafael Cattle Company, reports that on the 18th of February he had stolen from his ranch in Sonora sixteen saddle horses and a bell mare. One saddle horse, a steer and fine Hereford heifer were kill. ed at the same place. There were left in exchange for the horses stolen three worn out, run down horses, shod in Indian style. The horses stolen were driven in the Sierra Madres in the exact place where Capt. Lawton held the con- ference with Geronimo which re- suited in the surrender to General Miles. Sheriff Slaughter received a similar report from Sonora last Monday which was corroborated by James Price, who arrived in Tombstone on Tuesday from his mines just across the Sonora line. He state the ranchers have suffer- ed heavy losses. General Prscuera, one of the heaviest losers, has nine teen armed men on the trail. It is generally supposed that these dep relations are committed by the Indians who murdered Sheriff Rey- holds and his deputy last Fall. and are yet at large.-Stockman.

Fort Worth, Tex, Feb. 13.-The following invitation was to day sent to the governors of all the southwestern states and to prom inent people all over the country, requesting their presence at the in- terstate convention of cattlemen to be held in this city on March Il:
 The interstate cattlemen's con- vention has been called by the rep resentatives of the different asso- citations throughout the southwest to meet the Northwest Cattle Grow CTS association at Fort Worth, March II, 1890, to inquire into causes which have led to the low price of beef to the producer with out any corresponding benefit to the consumer. Such a convention having been called, the citizens of Fort Worth extend a cordial invi- tation to the governors of the diff ferent states and territories, the rep resentative -stockmen and all others interested in the stock interests, asking that the governors of such states or territories appoint at least twenty one delegates to attend and participate in the deliberations of the interstate cattlemen's conven- tion, in order that an intelligent discussion may be had and a con- servative action had in the premises leading to a solution of the difficult ties which have for the last few years confronted the cattle breeders and raisers of the country. This is a question of vital importance to the farmers as we'll as to the cattle men, and full attendance is hoped for, especially from the northwest cattle feeding states. Respectfully yours, INVITATION COMMITTEE.
