years ago that they had copied the
common Protestant falsehoods about
Catholic matters, have recently SUP
PRESSED ONE WHOLE EDITION
OF THEIR BOOKS in order to correct
these errors. Modern historical re-
search brings to light the true facts.
Catholics do not expect any defense of
their position from the pages OF Sec
ular journals, magazines, reviews or
other publications, whose editors and
writers, ostensibly at least, have not
pledged themselves to the advocacy
of any particular creed; but we have
right to see that our Church and
her institutions are neither maligned
nor misrepresented, for we hold our
faith dearer than our lives and we
shall not allow it to be attacked with
impunity. The Church is our Mother,
and nothing to us is more luminous
than the fact of her heavenly origin
and divine institution. And as she is
to us Mother. to her we are sons.
Her honor is ours; her dishonor is
our dishonor. He who ventures to
strike at her good name raises up an
army against himself Smite, wound,
SANDER, calumniate, hold us up to
ridicule personally, and we can bear it.
But touch her not; thrill us not through
by casting scornful eye on her; the
arrow is in the string, and the bow
is bent, and ten thousand mighty ones
of Israel guarding the citadel of faith
are at her side ready to defend her
with voice and pen and even, if need
be, with the sacrifice of their lives.
Catholics are justly sensitive to many
things regarding their belief; but there
is one thing which they feel more
acutely than all, the indignities and
calumnies heaped upon their Church,
to whom they owe, under God, their
spiritual life and their happiness, both
here and hereafter
In concluding presently this discus
sion on the Inquisition, have only one
more word to add. 1t is my deep felt
thanks to the gentlemen of the Homo
lulu press, who by their kindness have
enabled me to put before the public |
the facts of this interesting question
in the sunlight of Catholic truth May
it help to uproot prejudice and |
strengthen among all the Christian de-
the bonds of mutual |
charity.

ish Inquisition lasted is 331, not 33

SIDE LIGHTS ON THE
PAPAL AVAILABILITY

Honolulu, H. T., January 26th, 1907.
Editor Advertiser: Our esteemed con-
troversialist, Father James, has laid
such stress on the likeness of the guild
ing of papal infallibility to the mag
netic needle of a vessel which alone
enables the voyager to reach his
home port safely, that surely a short
glance at the historical record to show
mixed among it's own points and thus
led the trusting mariner on to the rocks
and shoals will not be out of place
If only one of the cases cited is his
torically true would it not be better to
compare the papal direction to the as
tatic needle (used in electrical testing
apparatus) which has such feeble di-
receive tendency that it is subject to
any external influence and neither dis
tinguishes north from south or east
from west.
WITCHCRAFT.
In the tenth century, Gerbert, after
wards known as Pope Sylvester IL,
was suspected of sorcery when he
showed a disposition to adopt scienti-
fic methods in dealing with the prac-
tise of medicine.
In 1917 Pope John XXI. issued his
bull SPONDENT PARITER, levelled
at the alchemists but really dealing a
terrible blow at the beginnings of
chemical science. That many alchem-
lists We're knavish is no doubt true, but
no infallibility in separating the evil
from the good was shown by the pa
pacy in this matter. In this and in
sundry other bulls and briefs we find
Pope John, by virtue of his infallibility
as the worlds instructor in all that
pertains to faith and morals condemn
ing real science and pseudo-science
alike. In two of these documents, sup
posed to be inspired by wisdom from
on high, he complains that both he
and his fiocks were in danger OF their
lives by the arts of sorcerers; he de-
clares that such socerers can send dew
lis into mirrors and finger rings, and
kill men and women by magic word;
that they had tried to kill him by
piercing a waxen image of him with
needles in the name of the devil He
therefore called on all rulers, secular
ana eccIeSlaSt1caI, TO nunt down the
miscreants who thus afflicted the faith
full, and he especially increased the
powers of inquisitors in various parts
of Europe for this purpose.
The impulse thus given to childish
fear and hatred against the investiga-
ton of nature was felt for centuries;
more and more chemistry came to be
known as one of the ''seven devilish
arts"
In 1437, Pope Eugene ", by virtue
