Morrill, Hits California
go Lightly" Uses Strong Terms In
DenOuncing Alien Land Bill of
California

Rev. G. L. Morrill,, who has just re-
turned from trip around the world,
spoke at the Peoples church, in Min
neapolis Sunday before large con-
gregation on "Our japanese Brothers"
His address was devoted largely to the
California land bill, which was criti-
cized. Among other things, he said:
"The alien land bill is something
that would have disgraced hell in its
palmiest days.
at is a piece of political perfdy, of
rotten state rights, of proverbial Cali
fornian bunkum and of race and re-
ligious bigotry that makes the. Orien-
tai heather a Christian saint in COM
parison The bill is unkind, unfair, un-
American and UNI Christian.
"The alien and undesirable citizen
is not the patient Jap, but the Jingo'
politician, who pirates loud of loyalty
to the United States, but is more dis
loyal and with less reason, than the
South ever was.
"This bill will cost Uncle Sam more
money, time and trouble than the
whole state of California is worth.
Disgrace to State
"The Webb bill is a disgrace to the
state a humiliation to friendly pow
er and an insult to the sister states
which came to California's relief in the
hour of her fire and earthquake dis
tress.
"God made California, but its gold
would have been undug, its railroads
unbuilded, its cities a sandheap, if it
had not been for the faithful Orientals
who have made the wilderness to bios
som like rose.
California well may be jealous of
the Jap-his muscle is harder, his mind
keener, his manners potter and his
morals less vicious.
"Sodom and Gomorrah were sanity

pect If she does not reform.

acts the part of Cain and is branded

Good roads legislation is becoming
so important that the lower house OF

There is no more political or rell-
gious terror in the organization OF the
Knights of Columbus than there is IN
the organization of the Masons. The
writer of this is not Catholic but he
is Mason and he knows that the crit
icism of the Masonic lodge made by
"Menace" is born of ignorance and in
tended simply to incite prejudice IN
the minds of the uninitiated.
If the rest of the contents OF the
"Menace" are as misleading and I'M
true as those concerning the Masons
the paper is as unreliable as the most
biased Catholic could wish.
In questions of religion, Justice,
(spelled with big "J'') should govern
and not sentiment.
Justice is the trait of mind that
makes religions bear with each other.
Do not forget this. Do not forget
that the advance of civilization and
the development of the religious tend
ency depend upon tolerance and justice
You may be as prejudiced as you
like but you must never forget that
those differing from you are as preJud-
iced as you and as certain of the cor
rectness of their creed and the saving
power of their faith.
Religion is personal matter in the
United States. There is no DISPOSE
ton on the part of the protestants or
the Catholics to deny this or to inter
fere with personal beliefs.
Catholics should not be worried by
unjust and false criticisms and protest
ants should not heed alarmingly mad

else's bad qualities. If you want to
distinguish yourself go around point
ing out good qualities.
Pick out the man whom everyone
dislikes. Select the one you feel could
best be spared from your Office, from
YOUR circle of acquaintance, from the
community in which you live. Ask
yourself if there isn't something good
about him.
Put him on a mental dissecting
table. Cut him to pieces and see
what's in him. Remember-you are
looking for the good. Throw away
the bad in him and forget it. Make a
list of his good qualities. 1t will sur
prise you how many you can find.
The next time you hear him criti-
cized, tell people the things you know
about him-the good things. You'll at
least be different and you'll find that
it does you more good than it does
him.
How would you feel if you knew
that people whenever they talked
about you talked only about what was
bad in you. You know it's there
plenty of it, but you'd rather not have
it talked about. It's much nicer tc
have only your good opinions dis
cussed.

deal you like yourself. If you can say
nothing good about him, say nothing

Menace" is striving bitterly to
bring about the very condition which
it decries: A religious conflict.
The world has seen enough of such
fights. They have always been pecul-
iarly terrible since upon nothing do
the human feelings run so rampantly
tragic as upon questions of religion.
But history shows no religious fight
except those incident to political up
heavals or the propaganda of new
faith.
The story of Catholicism is no more
pertinent to the present situation than
the history of the protestant faith.
Each has committed objectionable sins,

longer a pariah, the Jew no longer the

Doubtless there have been crimes
committed by priests and offences done
by fallen nuns. Doubtless also there
have been crimes committed by pro-
testant ministers and members of pro-
testant churches.
There have been good and great
priests just as there have been good
and great ministers in non-catholic
churches. To criticize a religion for
the sins of it's devotees would be as
silly as to condemn the United States
government because presidents have
been assassinated.
There is no shadow of proof that

striving to gain control of the govern

Interests" Al Work

There are certain interests in
this country that have been dis
credited, not only by regent dis
closures, but by criminal prose-
cutions against the criminal methods
which they have used in exploiting
the people OF the country in their
own behalf. They are commonly re-
ferred to as the Interests" While
they may think that because of
the power which has been placed
in their hands by absolutely unscru-
pulous methods, by total disregard
of law and of the rights of others,
they are superior to law and
government, in the eyes of this
nation, they, and their methods, are
condemned and discredited.
They have bought up elections,
by the profligate use of money, which
they filched from the public; they
have bought up public officials they
have Improperly influenced Courts,
and, by every standard known
among honorable men and women,
they constitute the most desperate
class of criminals. They are per-
sons who use their mental attain
ments, their educational and techni-
cal training, and the advantages
which come through large combina
lions of wealth, in an effort to
take an unfair advantage over those
who have not equal opportunities to
meet them on equal terms.
These Interests" are now busily
engaged in an attempt to under
mine the confidence of the public
in the administration of President
Wilson. They. attack the President
because he has been a student and
has not been engaged in robbing the
public; they attack Secretary Bryan
because he exposes their system. Not
satisfied with having wrecked the
Republican party, they are now
turning their efforts on the Demo-
cratic party in an attempt to dis
credit the effort of the administra-
ton to enact laws that will give
relief to the masses of the people,
and will make men of their ilk oc-
cupy the positions which they
should.
Every honest man, be he Demo-
Graf or Republican. can depend up-
on the administration of Woodrow
Wilson to use its best efforts to Sc
cure fair play for the great body of
the American people, and to COM
pei large business interests to be
governed by the same standards of
honesty as are applied to smaller
