Sometimes we are assaulted by the
bigoted ON account of our faith. But the
ASSAULT only serve To hcighten our 10y
atty. We owe To our fcllowcitizens Of
other faiths the deepest respects in being
common members Of n country where
conscience is ~inviolate. We detest rclig-
ious bigotry and would do nothing to re-
new he old religious quarrels. IL will not

land a race Of bigots. Fcalty To our coun-
try is our second principle. We are
sometimes charged with allegiance
To III Roman pontiif. We recognize
this jurisdiction i'm purely ecclesiastic
matters, but in no way with our civil allie
glance To the land of the brave aud the
free. To this land we render the suprem-
est loyalty Of our being. The flag Of a.
stars is lear To us. Its security is our
most sacred care. No act al cowardice
or ~treachery al our part will injurc IL.
Fealiy TO our fellowmen is the third prin-
cipal. II is our sacred obligation Ia labor
to elevate men socially, morally and intel.
lectually. We make no distinction as "a
members SO long as they worship at tho
same altar n belong To the grand old
faith Of our martyred ancestors" Q
