REAL LIBERTY is WANTED

Notwithstanding the bills passed ana
regulations adopted, France at the
present time has a law granting re-
ligious liberty to those who do not
comply with the law providing for the
separation OF church and state.
The one point in the circular is
sued recently by the French Minister
Of Public Worship in his confession
that it is impossible to apply to cul-
tural associations the laws of 1881 and
1901, which were adopted for the regu-
lation of other kinds of association
meetings. Therefore what is needed
is a real law providing for real liberty
instead Of arbitrary ministerial circu-
lars.
The loyalty and good will of the
Holy See, under similar circumstances,
was shown in Brazil. There was a
monarchy and concordat, both of
which the republicans suppressed and
proclaimed their separation from the
Holy See under certain reserves Later
the Brazilian republic came to an un-
derstanding with the Vatican and a
papal nuncio was credited to Rio ia
metro, while a Brazilian Minister was
accredited TO the Vatican.
The search of the nunciature at Paris
and the expulsion from France of Mgr.
Montagnini, secretary of the nuncia-
ture, were steps taken with the object
of making the world believe the false
statements circulated later, and which
were said to have originated in the
discovery of documents seized at the
nunciature. such as the report that
some of the French episcopacy and
clergy were ready to. make applica-
tions to hold religious meetings. There
is no truth in the statement The
Holy See is not opposing applications
under the law, but takes exception to
the whole spirit of the circular issued
by Minister of Public Worship BRAND.

ROME, Dec. 1.-THE Pope and the
Papal Secretary of State. Cardinal
Merry del Val, have refused all re-
quests to grant interviews for publica-
tion in relation to the Vatican
situation. but the following statement
is authorized by the Vatican:
The situation may be summarized
as follows: General accord. the solemn
bilateral contract, has not yet been. de-
nounced by the French Government,
which wishes to establish new legal
standing for the church in France. The
Government did not agree with the
Holy See on this subject and repeatedly
and openly showed hostility toward
the head of the church."
Violence may prevail for a time, but
those who are suffering from this state
of oppression preserve all their rights
and all their claims. The explosion of
Joy among the Masonic demagogic So
cieties as a result of the persecution
upon the part of the Government shows
that the war is against the church and
religion.

Grand Marshal Hagerty stood on the

and one white cotton glove 10 Mr.. Bryan
as he was driven down to the train that was
to take him away from Newark TO Jersey
City,
Jersey City smarted under the victory
won over il by Newark. The Davis men
were determined to put up such a show
that Newark would pale into IA half candle
power glimmer besides ii. Theydid.
When the train bearing Mr.. Bryan reached
the Pennsylvania depot there was a com
mittee on hand to give him the freedom
OF the city. Leader Davis and a corn-
mittce Of select men were on the platform
with the glad hard. They put Mr.. Bryan
into a carriage and took him TO dinner.
That was at the Carteret Club on Bergen
avenue.
The flower Of the Bob Davis o~rganiza-
ton was there, also a band and something
to eat. There we're speeches. The band
played drinking songs between the courses.
Bob Davis sat next to Mr.. Bryan and told
him over the lobster a Ia Newburgh that

The lateness Of the arrival Of Mr.. Bryan
and the length Of the inner at the club
combined TO delay the great ~torchliRht
parade until o O'Clock. II started with an
explosion of bombs somewhere up the
street. After a long wait and more bombs
the vanguard Of the stalwart 10000 swung
past the reviewing stand at Jefferson ave-
nue. and Montgomery street. Mr.. Bryan,
who had been hastily driven TO the spot
in time to see all the show, took his stand
on the reviewing platform and watched
the stalwarts go by with his face wreathed
in smiles. Then he spoke.
There being no hPht between mortuarians
and bosses in jersey City at the present
time, the words of Mr.. Bryan we're allowed
to flow smoothly and in n stream uninter-
rlpted. After spealsng from the review
ing stand he was taken in a carriage down
to Elks's Hall. where he spoke again. There
were yet many OF the stalwart 10000 who had
not caught the words of wisdom. SO a third
relay had to be taken at ST. Peters Hall.
IL was not until long after 10 o'clock that all
of the followers of Davis had been satisfied.
Then, with a final boom of bombs and a
detinitive flashing of torches, Mr.. Bryan
was launched across the Hudson on his home
ward fight TO New York.

thing in Turkey or Japan, " said Mr.. Michael
Feeley OF the Ocean Social Club in final
comment. And he knows now that none

Mr.. Bryan rose early In Bridgeport yes

ator McNoill's home in Bridgeport to the
station In time to catch he :46 train for
New York. He had an engagement to
keep at the Victoria Hotel at 10 O'Clock.
His Connecticut trip had been graded
on an ascending scale OF Democratic SIM
plicity. He left New York In q private
chair car, went from New Haven TO Bridge
port In a private day coach and came back
to New York from Bridgeport in a common
day coach with red plush seats and the
boy selling cigars and chocolates. When
the conductor came through to collect the
fares he shook hands with Mr.. Bryan.

conductor.
