Hm iSSiOn Yes. l1e cluICl recognizes the marriages of Jews and Protestants,' but repudlates them. Were l to recognize sprinkling or baptism, would l re- pudiate it when a sprinkled Christian should seek admission to the church? No one knows better than Mr. l.. that in this ease he IS again juggling with words to de- ceive the Protestants whose favor he is seeking.
 In the last cast he is careful nOt to deny that he teaches his mem bers that it is sin to attend Protestant churches. He evades II by saying that he has been Ill Protestant churches. While this IS rarely true, it does not follow that he permits his members to do like wise. If he has not prohibited their attendance, quite a large number of his followers have ser1- ously misrepresented him. The want of space forbids my citing the teachin"s of his church on this subject.
 Finally, he says that 1 am not a disciple of Christ because have not the spirit of Christ answer, I have the spirit of Christ, because I say to errorists, "Ye do err, not knowing the Scriptures. nor the power of God" (Matt. 22:29.) I have His spirit because l do not hesitate to call certain false teachers Blind guides," etc, etc. See Matt. 23, the whole chapter, but especially verses 7-10. I have the spirit of Paul, who, when he was smitten in the mouth at the command of Jewish priest, who believed in using force to stamp out heresy, the Same faith that MT. Lucey's church is practicing, Paul said: God snall smite thee, thou whited wall.' Jesus said (Matt. 10:34) Think not that I come to send peace on earth; I came to send peace on earth: l sword" Not the literal sword, for He said of such, sThey that take hn cIo1 sol h1y sword" But the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God" It is this sword that I have been welding which has so seriously disturbed the peace of Mr. L. It disturbed the peace of his spiritual and temporal head, the pope of Rome, when Protestants sent mis- sionaries to Rome to convert Roman Catholics to Christianity; when Nethodists spent in Rome a million dollars to build and equip a publishing house It has been disturbing the peace of the Vatican for years to have the Methodists importune the pope for religious liberty in South America, but he refuses to grant it. Catholic Brownson has we'll stated the posi- tion of the Catholic church on re- ligious liberty. He says: We claim religious liberty in Protestant countries because it is their prin- ciple to grant it, but We deny re- jlig1ous Liberty in Catholic coun- tries, because it is our principle to deny it. Let no hoodwinked mug wump Protestant deceive himself into thinking that Catholicism has changed in it's principles. l quote from an article written. by a Catholic priest in the North American Review of Jan. 4 1907: ''Pius X is as terrible a dissapoint- ment as Piux TX was Of the New Testament spirit there is none un- der the present regime at Rome: and one will have to turn back to some of the most despotic papal reigns to find a parallel to the bigotry, cruelty, hatred of truth and defiance of civilization, which characterize the papacy at this hour. Harsh as this language seems, proof will be given in the course of this article that it is not too harsh to be strictly true. ' Now if MT. L. fails in his reply to make showing of argumentaticn upon any of the issues I have
 clearly ttated, I shall ask rha editor to copy the whole of the above article found in both the North American Review of Jan. 4,
