the same intolerance which King Henry
had inveighed against He said:
They have not only attempted to en-
force their intolerance In the United

Bishop HartzeII Praises
Fairbanks in Sermon

Bishop J. C. Hartzell discussed the
Fairbanks-Vatican episode during his SER
mon before a large congregation at the
Methodist Episcopal Church in John
Marshall place yesterday. The subject
Of his sermon was Gods Purpose To-
ward Man."
Bishop Hartzell praised Mr.. Fairbanks
for the stand which he had taken when
the pope made an audience at the Vati-
can conditional upon Mr.. Fairbanks not
addressing the Methodists in Rome. He
said that it would have been eminently
uniting for Mr.. Fairbanks to cancel an
enga cement he had made with the Ro-
man branch of his own church in order
to pay a social visit to the head of the
Catholic Church.
why should this incident have so
stirred the civilized world?" asked Bishop
Hartzell. THE reason is manifest We
have reached an age in the development
of Gods purpose for the uplift OF hui
mainly when every act or law even in
directly interfering with religious liberty
is at once condemned"

Father Doyle Criticises
Methodist Mission Methods

The methods of the Methodist missions
at Rome were roundly criticised by Rev
A. p. Doyle in a lecture at the Apostolic
Mission House yesterday. Father Doyle
declared, too, that Theodore Roosevelt
would never have made the "egregious
blunder that Fairbanks did, in Rome,
to which the controversy over the Meth
odists in Rome has arisen.
Father Doyle sa.u that convert making
was largely question Of methods, and
that real converts were held in honor,
like Newman and Hecker, who recog.
nized the claims Of truth.
But PROSECUTING. in the strict sense
Of the word-that is. using bribery and
deceit to lure the weak and the limo
cent away from the path Of what is
Father Doyle, "and 1t is passing strange
that some public men are not keen to
see the difference: Roosevelt would
never 1sve have have made the egregious blunder
know and quick to discern between what
is upright in purpose and what is dis
honorable in method and he could NOT
have been cajoled into giving the appro-
baton OF his presence to such loW-grade
doings as are carried on under the cloak
Of the respectable name of Methodism in
Rome.
Quotes From Methodist Minister.
1.-The marvel is that the honorable
Methodist Church in the United States
has tolerated it SO long. Individual min
listers have roundly condemned it. The
Rev. Everett Stackpole, a we'll known
and highly respected Methodist minister
Of New England, In his book, -Four and
q Half Years in the Italian Missions
says that men Of depraved lives and of
IA hits larprn1v thn
mel OF the workers. They are generally
ex-priests who have been cast out by the
discipline of their church, who are reek-
ing with moral slime. No respectable
man would associate with SUCH and yet
they are in the employ of the so-called
American Methodist Association In Rome.
with instructions to rroseiytize among
the poor, the weak and the dependent,
and get names to add to their roll of
membership Names on the roll are nee
essary to get further contributions from
wonderful old ladies of both sexes.
Destruction Considered Certain.
Dishonesty, deceit and bribery are
some of the accusations Mr.. Stackpole
makes against their methods, and he con-
cludes: Our churches are growing, our
missionary operations extending. our ben
efactions swelling. and we congratulate
ourselves upon our progress, but We have
only to continue making the same kind
of progress long enough and our destruc-
ton is sure.
"Can any one tell why in the country
town the so-called ex-priest is invited to
tell about the .hideous practices of Ro-
to know the teachings of the Catholic
Church they might call on the Catholic
pastor or interview some of their intel
ligent Catholic fellow-citizens"
