caused the Roman Catholic labor
men to demand the appointment Of
a Roman Catholic. Jobs will be
given to Protestant "good fellows
who can be Used as tools of the
Jesuit system, as by keeping them
in employment the low Roman
cities can have some proof that
the hand of the Roman Catholic
clergy concealed in this game that
not a particle of evidence could be
produced against them; yet to them
and their dirty, low lieutenants in
politics the whole work is due. In
a few years they will practically
control the city or municipal gov
ernments of the principal States and
through this control they will also
control State and National politics
as the religious garb' decision is a
proof. 80 ~~'
The United States is the richest
country in the world, and the Roman
Catholic Church is making a fearful
effort to get control Of it, and it lies
with the Protestant churches to
form a political party to protect
human liberty. The Constitution of
the nation can never be changed by
votes as politicians Of both parties
find Catholic votes always for sale as
a unit for the favors that can be got
for them; you must rise in your
might and change the Constitution
by religious war, otherwise the
nation will be enslaved as Europe
was prior to the Reformation. The
gives the Roman Catholic Church
such an overwhelming advantage it
will be otherwise impossible to pre-
vent it getting control, and history
will repeat itself to a certain extent
at least. The low, cruel persecution
that l have seen people who are
tools OF this system carry on is
almost equal to sixteenth century
cruelty minus the burning at the
stake. Human liberty is a precious
gift; its value is not understood in
this age of luxury and sport. 1t is
like health or wealth or good pair
of feet and hands: 1t is only when
a man loses leg or an arm that he
begins to realize how wealthy he was
when born perfect. When liberty is
lost it's value will be appreciated.

State cannot open their mouths, as
both parties are at the mercy of the
Roman Catholic Church. I will
mention an instance of the glorious
Inconsistency of Roman Catholic
reasoning on federation. The Boston
Pilot few weeks ago published an
account Of meeting of the Guar
dams of Liberty in a city in Con-
necticut. I think it was in April or
early in May, and boasted of how a
spy of the Catholic Federation of
Societies tOk the names of the bust
ness men who attended this meeting.
We may ask for what purpose, and
answer also for the purpose of boy
cotting and injuring them. This
paper, the Pilot, is the official organ
of the Roman Catholic Church in
New England, and calls all bigoted
who dare to criticise the Roman
Catholic Church, but it does not con-
slider it is bigotry or any part of
bigotry to start a boycott against
respectable citizens who dare to at
tend meeting for the purpose of
protecting human rights. Roman
NCatholic officials alone are the
judges of liberty. On the eve of
elections now word is sly1y passed
around: Vote for one of our own
kind, and not for hereto; yet
these same people are always shout
ing against Protestant intolerance.
