party has embraced all the balance of our
principles
Mr.. Bryan, in 1896 and in 1900 had this
constitutional money plank in his platform,
but since he has become a hireling of the
Wall Street interests, he has abandoned it.
He (Bryan) and the Jesuitical Roman
Catholic, Senator O'Gorman of New York,
wrote the Baltimore platform of the Demo
cratic party.
Here are three vitality important Demo
cratic principles which Bryan and O'Gorman
dropped
a. The abolition of national banks.
~ The direct issue Of all money by the
Federal Government, each dollar to be full
legal tender, the equal Of every other dollar
and no one sort of dollars to be redeemed by
any other sort of dollars
(3) The protection and extension of our
public school system, the cradle Of American
liberties, and the safeguard of our free insti-
buttons.
This plank in favor of our public schools,
as we'll as the plank in favor of direct issue
of money by the Government, and the plank
that demands the abolition Of national banks
of issue, used to be in all the national Demo-
cratic platforms.
Will some of Mr.. Bryan's admirers give us
Mr. Bryan's reasons for abandoning these
historic Democratic principles?
Why did Mr.. Bryan drop them at Balti-
more?

IS Protestant, the mayor of the Eternal
City is Jew, and the Protestants, the Social
lists and the Infdels badger the poor old Pope
with perfect impunity, and he dare not hold
street procession without the protection Of
the police.
Does this prove that the prosecuted Prot
estants were rghtg
1t is well known historical and psyche
logical fact that devotees of all religious
faiths gladly welcome martyrdom.
The Buddhists have done it, the Moham-
medans have done it, the Druids did it, the
ancient pagans did it.
Of course the Protestants have done it,
when the Romanists were hunting them to
death. There is not single European State
lfe-blood of Protestant martyrs, slain by
Roman Catholic fanatics.
[ have never said that there are not indi-
vidual Roman Catholics who live beautiful
lives and devote themselves to good works.
Individual deyotees of all religions have
done this. The Salvation Army has done more
charity work than the entire Roman Catholic
organization, and Gen. William Booth was
greater benefactor to the human race than
any dozen italian popes that ever lived.
My fight is on the Hierarchy, the politico-
religious organization of Italian, Spanish and
Irish cardinals who are attempting, in the
name of God to rule the world and to plumber
it, as was done by the same Hierarchy in the
Middle Ages.

PAGE TWELVE
One OF the FavOrite Arguments
of the Roman Catholics.
Dear Col. Watson:


I PRESUME I am sort of freelance student
L consider your STORY of France the finest
work ever written the French Revolution.
Therefore your articles on the Roman Catholic
Hierarchy carry weight with At Car
negle Library there does not appear to be an
unbiased book the Roman Catholic religion:
| am fairly enlightened in it's history, as also
Professionalism, and am not inclined to condemn
the present RomiSh Church too severely for it's
prosecutions in the Middle Ages any than
to harshly censure the present Professionals, for
burning Giordano Bruno, ct al. Surely, present
day church goers, irrespective of creed, not
as bigotted or fanatical a whole.
Your vehement articles to wonder
how the Roman Catholic faith could have existed
SO long under the guidance and control of it's
d1gnltarles, befrocked, be petticoated, bejeWeed.
AS venerable Baptist preacher said (guess you
know him), there must be some divine, some
spiritual power and truth in the Roman Catholic
Church. for it to be SO potent, despite its enc
mics attacks.
Don't know how it is down there in Thomson,
but probably the same is true; namely we have
the greatest respect for many Roman Catholic
noticeable, their family and civic lives pure,
clean, commendabe and worthy of the emulation
of their fellow citizens. Knowing personally
great many Catholics I feel safe in remarking
that not one Of these good friends fine neighbors,
is inspired impelled through fear but by the
honest love of God in their souls, and Whom they
humbly, prayerfully truly, worship through the
machinery Of the Roman Catholic Church.
In the two Theosophical lectures I attended
some time ago, was amazed at the erudition dis
played by the lecturers, who threw much light
on not only the customs and symbols of the Ro-
man Catholic Church, bat other religions.
Though nOn-CathOlics, noted that they showed
deeper meaning, symbolical esoteric, in the
paraphernalia used at the affairs, and in that way
made any service full Of meaning and historical
interest.
In Our glorious autonomy of East Orange the
chief priest is man highly esteemed and loved
not only by his own communicates but by the
whole people. Had he succumbed to recent
stroke, the community would have mourned. A
great corporation lawyer, non-Catholic and he,
good friends The death Of little girl the
other day threw the parents into terrible grief.
We learned that the two nuns who called the
bereaved friends indescribable comfort to
the parents in their deep affliction.
l met n6ighbor just emerging from his
church in the early morning (although he is fire.
quently very late from his strenuous work at
night. He is a very intelligent gentleman, the
head of a large, well-trained family, and of
large concerns employees. This got some
thing good Anyone with half eye could see
that he had derived spiritual benefit and comfort
by his early devotions, the bowling of the petit
coated priest" incense, paraphernaia, notwith-
standing.
