secret-we formed ourselves on a
foundation SO strong that we felt we
ought to be able to build super
structure on it. And we built that
platform in accordance with the Con-
stitution of the United States. There
was no division in any way. There
was nothing in that platform which
could honestly be attacked.
"And in a. little way we started
out. Soon it became rooted in the
hamlets, passed over the Great Lakes
and over the Rockies until it reached
the golden coast of the Pacific. And
in all sections Of the country we
found the same earnestness that pre-
vailed with the originators of the
organization. They wanted the peo-
pie to forget that there was any
Democratic party or Republican
party, and they wanted to place prin-
ciples above politics.
'In a little while we were going
along rapidly. The newspapermen
came into the headquarters Of the
organization in New York At that
time, none Of the executive commit
tee Of the order being present, the
newspapers of New York city told
the story Of the organization of the
Guardians Of Liberty. But what was
queer and strange and difficult to
explain was, that the knowledge of
the formation of this organization
which had been kept from the pub
lie, was known to the Vatican at
ROme!"
The speaker then read clipping
from New York paper, dated at
Rome, March IL, headed, "Birth of
the Guardians of Liberty Movement"
How did they learn that we had
a little patriotic organization built
along constitutional lines, consisting
OF men who would give their lives
for their country, men able to MAIN
tain good government, who believed
that there was no such thing as class
distinction; that one man was equal
with another so long as he behaved
himself equally Well?" said Mr.
Haines.
He then read a newspaper clip
ping in which Cardinal Gibbons
referred to the Guardians Of Liberty
as rats"
"Why are the Roman Catholics
doing this?" Mr.. FIaines asked.
what have we done to bring on this
discussion? Surely we are doing no
wrong, no injustice, in bringing
about an organization, if our par
poses and inteats are honest. Why
should We be isoIatod?
we find that this is not the first
organization that has been attacked
by the hierarchy Of Rome. We find
that for years and years tho Masonic
organization, the Odd Fellows. the
United Order Of Mechanics, the Pat,
riotic Sons Of America, and other
patriotic organizations have been
attacked by the hierarchy Of Rome.
"Rut in our instance it was a lit
tie different. The time had come to
organize. Some people say we we're
too late. But remember, in the war
between the North and the South the
North knew the preparations Of the
South, they knew what the news
papers said, and the public speeches,
and Of the preparations for war.
And yet the North slept! And how
dearly they paid for their slumbar!

are going TO keep our eyes open all
the time!

ton, Mass.
The Citizen, a paper published in
Boston, had the following account of
the speech of Hon. Chas. D. Haines,
of New York, the founder of The
Guardians Of Liberty.
1--WE have met here today on a
matter of most serious import; a
matter Of vital interest to every citi-
zen of our great country. And we
are pleased to note the interest man
ifested by the citizens of Boston and
Vicinity in attending a meeting of
this character upon a day set aside
for devotion to patriotism.
Il will tell you a little of the his
tory of the organization known as
the Guardian of Liberty. Several
months ago there gathered in the
City Of New York number Of men
from different sections of our coun-
try for the purpose of a conference.
And these men were earnest and
sincere and patriotic. These men
believed that the time had come
when some action was necessary, if
the civil and religious liberties Of
our country were to be maintained.
They had come there in dead earn
est, ready to give their lives and
property for the cause, as men had
done in the past.
I'm that gathering were men with
different ideals, naturally, and we
could not agree for long time upon
that or this principle. For eight
weeks these men gave their time
and money to frame a set OF princi-
Pies and a constitution. Some were
anxious that a plank should be in
the platform relating to temperance.
There was an elderly gentleman who
came from Birmingham, Ala. He
said: 1 never drank q glass Of wiis-
key in my life, but l do not know
but that some day I may be taken
sick, and l might want to find a
place where I could get some liquor,
and we ought not to put nything
about temperance in the platform
''Then there were those who want
ed change in the method Of taxa
ton, but we thought that that was
too great an undertaking to try to
regulate taxation One proposition
after another was presented. But
we all agreed on certain principles
from the first. There were those who
talked of the dangers OF politics, and
how the boss Of New York was con-
trolling the Democratic party, and
another boss was controlling the
Republican party, and how politics
was being manipulated against the
interests OF the people at large
'fAnd men told Of the necessity fer
good government, and they. thought
that the safest plan was to start
with the cid Constitution Of the
United States, and stand upon that
Constitution, and live, and, il need
be, Gle for it!
cone OF the planks said we wanted
to retain our public schools So
many men came from little country
farms and remembered the little old
schools. And when the Bible was
taken from the schools they believed
that the foundation was Being
removed to build parochial schools,
and they thought THAI they ought to
stand upon the Old public school
system.
"And there was another plank.
We said that in this country there
must and Shall be no unity OF Church
and State. We had done some read
ing and observing and thinking, and
from our reading and observation
we learned how gigantic had been
the failure Of the union Of Church
and State in other countries. And

the seventeenth round when the Kid

Straight rules requiring clean
break were used, which slowed up the
fighting a bit. Carpenter was the ag-
gressor throughout, but the superb
defense of the Kid caused many of
his blows to go wild and many more
to fall damageless upon the arms and
gloves of his opponent. In the sew
enteenth, however, he caught the Los
Angeles scrapper behind the jaw with
a cross arm jab and sent him to the
floor for the count of nine. Three
times Montana got to his feet, only to
go down again and, when he arose
the fourth time, the gong enabled him
to go to his corner.

full farming community, the residents
of which have perfectly fresh eggs for
breakfast every day in the week with
never care whether the market price
is so cents a dozen or not?
And who ever thought, that within
the shadow Of the dome of the capitol,
there is community Of 1000 souls, to
which even the omnipresent moving
picture theater has never percOlated?
Who would believe that in locality
not far removed from Washington, and
peOpled by Washingtonians, the ro-
mantle straw ride still exists, and the
historic town hall is the center Of So

bee is still an accepted method Of

Tain a tick-free condition in the over

The regulations provide that no
person shall be allowed to move, and
no boat. railroad or other common
carrier shall be allowed to transport
any cattle until they have been dipped

uured to show the certificate or the
dipping of the cattle before having
them placed on any common carrier.
In order to facilitate the work the

In every place where there are large
herds of cattle from the flooded dis
