years. Now to tell the truth about
an evil, cannot be called prosecution.
The worst and most damning evils
that ever cursed the earth, are those
wearing the livery of Heaven, to
serve the Devil in. But if you had
purposely and with malice, afore-
thought prosecuted the r. c.. Church,
what would it amount to with God
on their side? Parson "Blenk" and
the Federated Societies, are virtually
saying that Tom Watson is more pow
ertul than the gates of hell,' well
It's poor God that can't take care
Of His own. Yet the r. C. Church
knows the sting of being put out of
business they've been put out sew
eral times. Garibaldi put them out in
ltaly-and not very long ago they
were put out in France, and Tom
Watson was not in either of these
places. But the spirit of investiga-
ton, of free thought, the love OF lib
erty, was there, and for the edifica-
ton of his honor, the Reverend Bish-
op Blenk and his allies, | will say
That love Of liberty is not dead in
America, but sleepeth. And too
much loud talking by the above men
toned cohorts will awake him. I.
for one, and [ believe there are mil
lions, am not going to remain silent
and passiyely submit to be robbed of
the only things life is worth living
Tor; namely: to educate our children
IN our own way, and to retain and
maintain the right and privilege of
Tree thought, speech and assemblage.
Mr.. watson, let us ask please. is it
not violation of the postal laws or
Federal statutes, to use the mails to
work up conspiracy? eff two or
more persons shall agree to do an
unlawful act, such agreement shall
be deemed conspiracy, and upon
CONVICTION thereof, shall be, punished
by hne, or prison or BOTH" Wheth-
er they accomplish their unlawful
aim or not, has nothing to do with
their guilt. Is not an agreement to
destroy legitimate business, unlaw-
full?
If |, with others, should use mails
for that purpose, boasting Of our in
tentions, whether or not we were
successful, would we be liable for
damage or Imprisonment? If the
trade unions boycott a legitimate
business, they are liable to the firm
boycotted, for damage, that is law, or
at least they are made so liable by the
supreme court, not only as a union,
but as individuals. You know these
simple things, but thousands of your
readers and many Of those silly-mind-
ed Catholics do not know it. If the
r. c. Church end the Federate, secret
orders or societies have not violated
the law and made themselves liable
for punishment, first, in a conspiracy,
second in unlawful use Of the U. S.
mails, and third, in establishing a
boycott, there your humble servant
needs a whole lot of sense
Now [ say down with such
methods, all We American people join
me in say down with the Roman HER
archy, if it drags Taft and the pope
(whom Roosevelt calls the Holy
Father") down with it, I have much
more to say on this matter-maybe |
will get another whack at EN- later
If | find out it is not unlawful for
Blenk G Co, to use the boycott, l
will spend the rest of my time trying
to work up enc on the business
houses that withdraw their ads, from
you to that part Of the press, like the
N. O: Picayune, who lean popeward.
