(Roman Catholic Hierarchy
One of the pupils of the Italian patriot,
Settembrini, said that the tomb of his
Maestro ought to bear this inscriptions:
Here lies the enemy of the Bourbons, the
Jesults and the Inasmuches.'
BY the latter term were meant those
authors who write affectedly; by the Bour-
bons were meant those rulers who rob and
Cypress the people; by the Jesuits, were
meant those wolves in sleeps clothing, who
don the livery of God to serve the devil.
The same epitaph that was suggested for
Settembrini, would suit me equally we'll

Roman Catholic church Of today is Jesui-
tized
1t was but yesterday, that the Roman peril
was only a small cloud, no larger than
mans hand, upon the distant horizon.
Now, it is the storm-cloud which darkens
the whole land.
It was but yesterday, that the Roman Cath
Ollie priest avoided the public eye, and passed
you on the street with an humble, depreca-
tory smile, which seemed to mutely plead for
permission to exist
Today, the Roman priest is the most inso-
lent and arrogant man in America. The
laws will not touch him. The politicians do
his bidding. The press is afraid of him.
Protestant pulpits no longer dare illuminate
against him.
His powerful hand controls Congress and
the President.
He is forcing his church into union with
the State. His greedy paws are raking pub
lie funds out of munich pal, State and
national treasures for the use of his church.
Our juvenile courts are furnishing slaves
to his Houses of the Good Shepherd.
"Make America Catholic" IS the slogan
now publically proclaimed at monster
Romanist gatherings.

our faith !"

sion as reasonably Acknowledgements

the things which are Caesers, and if
Mr.. Nero really discovered the game
which is to make James Thorpe, origi-
nal American, famous. we can forgive
his musical ambitions, and even the de-
struction of Rome.
We right now refer to these same
learned individuals the problem of es-
tablishing Il direct line between Nero
and Thorpe. 1t shouldn't be such a
hard job, for, if we ape rightly in

Thorpe is much given to Kidding, and

correspondents write of the Indian
