TRUE AMERICAN LOYAL III

washington Instructed His Soldiers
Not to Speak Against the
Catholic Religion.
Father Thomas b. Sherman, s. j., son
OF the late Gen. William 7. Sherman, re-
Gently lectured in Omaha, Neb;, before a
flarge audience on ''True Amerlcanisu. =
Conepicnously predominating in ell parts
OF the hall were the familiar buttons lot
the Grand Army and Loyal Legion, while
the egular army was represen ted on the
platform in the persons Of General
| Brooke aud Colonel M. Sheridan, the
former occupying the seat at the left pt
the speakers chair. At the right OF the
platform the Second Infantry band was
stationed. Itopened the program with
an overture, which was followed mo-
| ment later by Marching Thro' Georgia"
as Father Sherman advance d to the front
Of the stage. During the delivery Of his
lecture he was fre quentiy interrupted BY
applause and elected cheers and laughter
when excoriating bigots organized to de-
prive Catholics OF their civil rights.
Father Sherman spoke IN part as follows:
The right of religious liberty is one Of
the principles that made this glorious
nation. It ia rot true Americanism Ito
seek to trample upon the religious rights
of our fellow citizens. By the term
"Americanism / mean citizens Of Amer
lea, and by America mean the United
States. % ;2s';. 5ss 3.
/. I believe in sole allegiance to the prin-
ciples of American independence, prin-
ciples Of liberty gained by our great
grandfathers when they severed the
strings that tied them to the skirts 81
England. Americanisn is;;. not one
opinion "a universal ,lnanimity. rStiftsl
cluaes, among other things, a combine
/ ton Of sentiment differences Of opinions
upon many subjects. Differences OF this
Kind, however, should be settled openly
ana nohorao1y anu WHO 9 some regard io y
truth. They should not be settled in
secret lodges, where mems rights are
tfampleu upon VIII. Ii
Patrick Heary and the forty men who
framed the constitution, which was pur-
chased by the blood OF the reVo 20
now threatened a. 10 It's strongest Pfln-
ciples-belieyed 1n#open discussion on
that sacred SUBJECT '711 NO man ever got up
and said that religions liberty should be
restrained IN those '1t an days. Inc nrst prln-

religious liberty. Religion has vested
rights no should not DC thrown OF WI down 80
ire brand into the midst OF political life.
There is dlscord enough n politics now.
These Jealous asssssins ct truth, these
products Of secret organizations that ara
anti-American in sentiment and prin-
ciple, falsely prate that the Catholics are
seeking to unite state and church. l
stand before you tonight as citizen-a
prescribed citizen, if you will. ! might
plead that my father fought for. tbs
union. Union means concord; they mean
discord. They are men utterly opposed
to principle.
When a citizen of the United States
takes the oath OF allegiance be agrees
that all must have equal rights, and yet

The Helena independent. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1875-1943, 1893-01-18
UNIFORMITY OF STATE Laws.

The question OF securing uniformity
in the divorce laws Of various states has
been very often discussed, but until
recently no serious efforts have been
made to reach this much desired end.
Some time ago the movement was
started in New York by the appoint
ment OF commissioners to confer with
authorized commissioners OF other states
and secure it possible q uniform system
OF laws relating not only to divorce but
conveyances OF property and other legal
matters. The divorce laws Of different
states vary 80 widely that it is entirely
possible for a man to have half a dozen
wives by evading the statutes in one
state and using others in another. The
difference in laws relating to property
transfers offer like opportunities for
fraud without punishment.
For the purposes OF a conference with
a view of adjusting these difficulties,
commissioners are likely to be appointed
from every state. The movement sug-
gests the ACCESSIBILITY Of a commission
from Montana in the representation; for
this purpose the legislature should make
provision before adjourning. Montana
during recent years has acquired q most
undesirable fame as one of the divorce
centers of the country. At times it
even promised to rival North Dakota in
this direction. 1t is the duty Of our law
makers to remove the suspicion that
people can be divorced while they wait
in this state and it would seem that the
best way to do this is to cooperate with
other states. It certainly can do no
harm to appoint commissioners who will
be prepared to discuss these matters at
the proper time.

A DIFFERENCE.

The Inter Mountain cannot make ever
itself believe its statement that The
INDEPENDENT is abusing Messrs.
DAILY and Dixon because this paper dis
approves Of the action Of those gentle
men in refusing to submit the senatorial
nomination to caucus decision. The
columns of The INDEPENDENT have been
kept free from expressions Of senatorial
preference. 1t has believed that matter
should be settled in cauous by the
democrats of the two houses and that
it's own duty was to Loyalty and faith
fully support the choice Of the majority
OF the members, whoever he might be.
This course it has steadfastly pursued
and will pursue to the end. Had Dixon,
or Hauser, or Collins, or Maginnis been
named, instead of Mr.. Clark, this news
paper would have supported him with
all it's might.
For Messrs. Dixon and DAILY az men
and citizens we have the greatest re-
spect. We have no fault to find with
the formers candidacy or the latter's
support Of it. But we have felt, and
still feel, that at a time when the con-
troll of the United States senate de-
pended on a single vote in this state that
it was not with us a question of this or
that man but solely a question as to
whether We should elect a democrat.
Beside this all minor questions sink out
Of sight.
For another thing The INDEPENDENT
believes that it would be establishing a
dangerous party precedent to abolish
caucus rule. It would demoralize party
organization and lead to a Mexicaniza-
ton Of the party in which every mar
would be a candidate and every man a
dictator.
We believe the Inter Mountain, on re-
Election, will agree with US that this is a
very different matter from "abusing''
Messrs. Dixon and DAILY. The right to
differ is a glorious American privilege.
More glorious still, however, is the great
American principle that majoritles must

while under the rules only two on q side
are allowed to participate in It.
AZ to the conflict in the position Of
attorneys for appellant, there is none, and

The only question presented Is the pro-
priety Of inserting the word known, into

would not otherwise convey. Upon this
they all concur, and there is no other
question legitimately involved in the
case or likely to be decided by the court.
