THAT FAKE OATH
OF THE K. c. LODGE
Circulated Throughout the Nation in
the Hope of 1njuring Catholic
Candidates.

The fake oath, purporting to be
the one taken by the knights of Col
umbus, is being used all over the
United States. At first it was sup
posed to have been inspired to in
lure Hon. E. G. Dunn, democratic
candidate for governor of Iowa, and
Hon. Maurice O'Connor, democratic
candidate for the Iowa supreme
bench, but information has come
from various states that it is being
circulated elsewhere. OF course SEN
sible people will pay no heed to It,,
as it is false upon it's face and bears
every evidence of a mere creation
for political purposes. 1t is said
that the same oath was circulated
some sixty years ago purportfng to
be the one taken by Masons. Any
man who would take such an oath
is a fool or knave. In fact, he is
both. The Freeman-Tribune pro-
duces the important part of it to
show it's readers the Righteousness
and unreasonableness of the docu-
ment: 1t follows:
II do further promise and declare
that / will have no option or will
OF my own or any mental reserva-
ton whatsoever, even as corpse or
cadaver (perinde ac cadaver), but
will unhesitatingly obey each and
every command that I may receive
from my superiors in the militia OF
the Pope and of Jesus Christ.
"That / will go to any part of the
world whithersoever may be sent.
to the frozen regions of the North.
to the burning sands of the desert
of Africa, or the Jungles OF India.
to the centers of civilization of
Europe, or to the wild haunts of the
barbarous savages of America with
out murmuring or repining, and will
be submissive in all things whatso-
ever is communicated to me.
81 do further promise and declare
that I will, when opportunity pre-
sents, make and wage relentless
war, secretly and openly, against all
heretics, Professionals and Masons, as
l am directed to do, to eXtirpate
them from the face of the whole
earth; and that will spare neither
age, sex, or condition, and that
will burn, hang, waste, boil, fay,
strangle and bury alive these infam-
GUS heretics; rip up the stomachs
and wombs of the women and crush
their infants heads against the
walls, In order to annihilate their
execrable race. That when the same
cannot be done openly, will secret
ly use the poisonous cup, the stran-
gulation cord, the steel Of the pom
lard. or the leaden bullet, regardless
OF the honor, rank, dignity or au-
thority of the persons. whatever be
their condition in life, either pub
lie or private, as | at any time may
be directed 50 to do, by any agent
of the Pope, or Superior of the
Brotherhood of the Holy Father of
the Society of Jesus. ~.
'In confirmation Of which here
by dedicate my life. soul and all cor
poral powers. and with the dagger
which now receive, will inscribe
my name, written in my own blood,

mination, may my brethren and fell

The vaudeville put on at the arm
DRIP opera house last evening by the
Princess Theatre company of Fort
Dodge was probably the highest
class entertainment of that kind ev-
er seen here. Selections from the
bohemian Girl, Martha, the Sextette
from Lucia, ETC., were rendered in a
very creditable manner by former
members of the Andrews Opera COM
pany. Although the prices were only
10 and 20 cents, the attendance was
rather light.
