ATTORNEY QU1Izow's DEFENSE
Denounces the Charges Against Him
as Blackmail and Promises
Vindication.

yesterday afternoon at Metropolitan Tenn
pie Chairman Outflow spoke briefly in
reference to the charges that have been
recently brought against him of swindling
client. In his opening remarks Char
man Outflow said:
Il wish to say a few words on subject
that hardly merits notice as far as l am
concerned, but as you may be curious to
know my version of the matter / will
briefly state:
That an obscure sheet called the Moni-
tor promised last week to publish Quit
COWS Record and having promised it
had to produce something.
"On Friday last the Monitors posters
displayed on the street corners had this
printed upon them in bold type: Quit
zow the Pure. client claims $SOOO
Swlndle extraordinary.
Ihe Monitor of the 25th inst. (this
week. comes out in slanderous attack
upon my clothes and good hat, which
were not injured, and then pr .nts in full
complaint which was drawn for the pur-
pose of publication in at unclean sheet
10 revive Its waning finances.
"a suit, of which this is repetition,
came regularly on for trial in the Superior
Court. Clune or his counsel failing to ap-
pear the evidence in my defense was heard
oy the Judge in open court, and upon that
evidence judgment was rendered in my
favor and which stands recorded on the
18th day of April, 1896.
The bringing uD anew of this same
case, and the former one, is merely an at
tempt at blackmail.
You can rest assured that will meet
all ana any legal proceedings brought
regularly against me in the proper man
ner, and can assure you in advance that
L plafa vi in,
courts of our State"
Rev. Ray Palmer was then introduced
and announced that he would speak upon
the subject, 1.-The Open Ques ion, or Who
Built the Temple of Liberty?''
1T seems to me-" began the speaker,
aims OF our society must be wrong in the
upper story. ! do not see how any body
can fail to see the difference between
Americanism and Romanism. Romanism
is like an old battered sailship, towed by
tug of Pope from beyond the sea.
Americanism is mighty steams ship
plowing boldly through the waters of
the sea.
But who built the temple Of liberty
l beg of you that you will be patient
while / go into history to answer this
question. Cardinal Gibbons says that
every man has right to worship in ac-
cordance with right conscience. The
the right to determine what is right
conscience. Romanism does not say that
man shall worship God according TO the
dictates of his own conscience, but in ac-
cordance with what the Pope of Rome
shall pronounce to be right conscience.
so you see that beneath these words of
Cardinal Gibbons, seemingly so accord
ant with the principles of liberty, are
really far other than they seem. Beneath
the smooth and apparently harmless
words are the hiss and sting of the SER
pent"
The speaker cited at length instances of
Catholic persecution of Professionalism, de-
claring that these instances typefied what
Cardinal Gibbons called a fright con-
science" Rev. Palmer then proceeded
with a refutation of q statement made by
various Catholic prelates that religious
liberation in this country was first shown
by Catholic, Lord Baltimore. Even ad-
mitting that Lord Baltimore was naturally
tolerant, nevertheless by the terms of bis
charter. granted by King Charles, he was
compelled to observe tolerance. The
Protestant ascension to power in England
compelled the trembling Catholics of
Maryland to grant liberation after seven
teen years OF persecution.
81 pray" concluded the speaker, "that
this Government shall never fall into the
hands of the Pope of Rome. l fear that if
it does, it will never be able to get out of
his hands again. | urge you, therefore, to
be wakeful and alert to protect unsulliad
our American institutions.
81 am not discouraged at the work we
have accomplished in tnis country. 1t is
amusing to hear Father Yorke count the
A. P. AS. in this country. We have ac-
complished much. Itwas none others but
the A. Pa. that sent Satolli out of this
country. We have made it hot for the
Romanists In this country.
1.-THE Catholics in this City aver that
they have an American championing their
cause. Very well, as long as he behaves
himself as ali American, but if he dares to
lay his hands on our public school system
we will see that he is sent to Halifax or
some other place where he belongs. Our
order is strong-stronger than it seems.
Many of our sympathizers will vote
with US and work with us, but will not
join our order for fear of suffering fnan-
cially for it. We, of the American Pro-
tective Association declare, and declare
confidently, that Rom anism's sun is about
to set, never to rise again.
Next Sunday afternoon Rev. Ray Palmer
Will deliver his final lecture in this City
before leaving for the East The subject
upon which he will speak was announced
Yesterday as Roger Williams Opening
the Gates of Liberty"
