ing the Catholics. had been printed fol
the Republican Congressional Committee
of which, IL IS said. 5000 90 copies were

upon the ground that Il had for year
been engaged in pushing Catholic school
upon the government. and securing larg

peoples money to priesuy agents of sec
tartan institutions must mmediatel
