Mr.. c. A. Windle, Chicago, III.
DEAR MIR. WINDLE: Please send me SO

Catholic Church the Deadliest Menace to Our
Liberties and Our Civilization"
l have several missions here in Nebraska, ten
in all. | attend these missions from McCOok,
Nebr., and tell you 1 am kept busy keeping out
the wolves l have tried your pamphlets and
they have done much good. They should be read
by every American and by every one who loves
TRUTH, CHARITY and FREEDOM.
I am determined to spread good literature
among my missions, and this feel obliged
to do, as | owe it to God, to our Country and to
my people.
Believe me, I am,
Yours sincerely,
FIR. D. A. BARRY, McCook, Nebr
The above is clipped from the Roman
Catholic paper known as The Iconoczast
The pamphlet which Pepper D. A. Barry
SO rapturously orders was written by Mr.
Windle in reply to my book, THE ROMAN
CATHOLIC HIERARCHY.
Strange to say, Pepper Barry does not
want any copies of my book: he only wants
the reply to it.
Really, he cannot truly appreciate the
depth, width and length of Windle's answer
to me, unless he knows what it was that
said.
To have Windle's reply to the book, with
OUT having seen Une DOCK, Is almost ike nav
ing the bellyache, without having eaten any
thing
Why take the antidote for my "pizen,"
when he has not taken the pizen?
Oh, let us hope that Barry who cloves
TRUTH, CHARITY and FREEDON, p
will quit referring to his Nebraska fellow
creatures as ''the wolves"
Read his rapturous letter again, and see
where he calls you and me and ours and us
"the wolves"
BY the way | wrote and published reply
to Windle's pamphlet. We call our reply by
the name of "a BRIEF SURVEY OF

Shall the Old HyTRn-BOOk be
Changed, and The Old
Hymns Thrown Out?

PEV. G.. T. SUTHERLAND, D. d., of the
~ Methodist Church, Jared me sadly by
some remarks that he made at the Sunday
School Institute in Washington City, last
Wednesday.
Rev. Sutherland, D. d., says that many of
the hymns In the Methodist Hymnal are
mere "tommyrot."
That is a strong word If tommyrot got
into the hym-boolz. and has been devotionally
sung from year to year, many questions arise.
DR.. Sutherland is missionary editor Of the
publication of his church. Read what he
said, as reported in the Washington Post of
October g.
"The tommy-rot' songs that sometimes
sung in churches are worse than songs at
ALL. said DR.. Sutherland. II can find no express
sion that better character'zes them. / hope the
time will soon come when these songs that sing US
into selfshiness-the 4 and me- kind-will be
replaced in hymnal by the strong songs that
breathe spirit Of helpfulness and service"
Under that criticism, many hymns will
have to be cut out
Rev. Sutherland, D. D., objects to those
songs which have II and me- in them. Rev.
Sutherland, ID. d., says that these Il and
me" hymns sing us into selfshness,"
Lord have mercy on that mans soul
If his rule should be applied to our Hymn
Book, there would hardly be anything left
that's worth singing.
"Jesus lover Of my soul"
1t would have to go out of the book, for
it is one of the II and me" kind ''that sing us
into selfshness.'
"Am | a soldier of the CROSSE"
We Mercer boys used to sing that, in the
chapel, in the years 1872 and 3; and when [
bounce out Of bed on fine mornings,
and send booming through the house the old
battle-song that we sang In school, the faces
Of the dear and the dead rise before me, and
the old boyhood scenes come again.
But the hymn is full of the | and me that
sings us into selfshness. and the Sutherland
Song-book will pass it by.
[ often wonder why our preachers do not
realize how much religion loses, when the old
songs are sung no more. The new ones may
be sWeeter, but they do not have the charm
and the sanctity of association The memo
rles which cling around those old songs are
more sOftening than any words that lips
could frame. BY the silken threads Of those
tender recollections of childhood, of the old
home, of the mother and the father, many
a strong man has been led up into the purer,
higher life.
''RocIl of Ages, cleft for ne.n'
Sing it no more: it is of the II and me
kind that sing us into sel6shness.
"Come thou fount Of every blessmg!"
Sing it no more: it is of "the | and me
kind"
And while Rev Sutherland, D. c., is
knocking the hymnss which have the II and
me- in them. and which therefore "sing us
into sel6shness, he might follow up his
reform by knocking the little prayer that we
used to say at mothers knee, before we went
to bed.

Kentucky Conference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. South and in his address to the class to
be admitted said in part:
81 have heard several preachers preach recently
but Of the sermons were such as to move
soul to seek salvation"
"Our colleges and universities have not taught
our preachers how to preach"
81 sometimes feel disgust for our colleges
and universities and contempt for some of the
men who come out of them. They want the best
places in the connection | go to hear them
preach the essays they gathered together at col
lege.'
81 want the preachers to spend half of their
time in prayer"
The Bishop is quite severe on the several
preachers" isn't he?
He ought to have let them know he was
going to be there.
That's what preacher told me, once. He
said [ ought to have let him know / was COM
ing.
Whether he had special brand of brim-
stone that he saves for ust such belligerents
as me, [ don't know.
Bishop Wilson says he has heard several
preachers recently. He did not like their
sermons Whether these several preachers
have heard the Bishop, and have liked has
sermons he does not tell us.
The Bishop is not only severe on the
preachers he has heard lately, but he is hard
on "our colleges and universities"
The Bishop alleges that these institutions
"haye not taught our preachers how to
preach"
Evidently, there are barren fig trees in the
vineyard of the Lord. What shall be done?
The Bishop says that sometimes he feels a
disgust for these colleges. The Kentucky
Conference was undoubtedly one of the
times The disgust had the Bishop by an
all-under holt, that time. Shore!
The Bishop asserts that he sometimes feels
a contempt for the men who come out of
these colleges.
Right there, [ must ask the Bishop to
pause. If he sometimes feels contempt for
the men who come out, what must his
feelings be for the men who stay in?
And if those men who come out of the
denominational colleges are so disappointing
that the Bishop sometimes feels a contempt
for them, they must be extremely dangerous
shepherds to trust with the sheep
Look here! The Bishop gets us into deep
water.

The editor of the Louisville Courier
Journal was unable to accept the in
vitation of the Illinois Legislature to
make the Grafton at the recent cele-
bration of the centennial of the birth
of the Little Giant, - but his letter
of regret embodied a tribute born of
personal knowledge. The Kentucky
editor is remarkably fortunate in an
acquaintance with the public men Of
the country which began with his boy
hood. He was born in Washington in
1910. where his father was living as a
member of Congress from Tennessee,
and remained there until 1861, when
he went to the family home in Tennes-
see, and later to Kentucky. Therefore
Col. Watterson was equipped to con
slider the early Illinois oratorical an
tagonist and later supporter of Presi-
dent Lincoln as few now living are.
He wrote to the joint committee of the
Illinois legislature:-
From my boyhood to his death |
know Judge Douglas well. The last
two years of his lite-and especially
the last few months was with him
every day. He was as lovable as he
was great. Lincoln was not trueI
friend to the Union, and, had his life
been spared, there is reason to believe
he would have been Lincoln 5 second
self during the dark days of the see
tional war. When he returned tC
Washington after the famous Lincoln
/ Douglas debate of 1858, l heard him
asked about the strange new being who
| had so suddenly risen above the ma
/ tional horizon. Mr.. Lincoln, he re
piled, ''is the very ablest debater
| have ever met here or anywhere else.
/ Generous to a fault, captivating before
every audience and delightful in al
private comprehensive. Blaine himself
not more so-he was bound to the dy
| ing body of institutional slavery which
/ he abhorred, and dazzled by the pres
| idency as were Clay, Webster and Cal
houn. Lincoln 5 bark rode n flowing
tide. Douglas S bark rode an ebbinl
tide. Amid the gloom of the confiic
he had vainly striven to avert, and TIN
thunder of cannon whose reverberation
broke his heart, he was called to thu
bosom of his God, but when the mist
roll away and the dawn of the trutl
of history cometh, his name and fame
like the name and fame of Lincoln
will endure forever and aye.

A PROGRESSIVE STEP.

The adoption of the new village
charter in the annual village meeting
last night was in the line of progress.
Aside from the change in the form of
government from five bailiffs to three
commissioners the status of affairs
just at the present time is the same as
before, but the village now has the
power, which it has not had hitherto
to say what shall be done in regard to
sprinkling the streets and collecting
and disposing of garbage. Just how
that will be done, in fact whether it
will be done at all under village super
vision, remains for the voters to de
termine, as the mere adoption of the
charter imposes no obligations upon
the village in this regard. The com
missioners, carrying out instructions of
last night 5 meeting, viii prepare by
laws which doubtless will cover these
subjects, and they may be adopted or
rejected as seeHts-t4esirable. Fhere-was
small merit in the argument that the
voters should reject the charter because
it did not suit some in all respects,
That would have left matters exactly
as they have been heretofore and the
time and energy expended in bringing
the old charter up to date would have
been an absolute waste.

MOVIES AND TEMPERANCE.

The demon rum has been completely
routed by the moving pictures in
Pottsville, Pa, according to a story
sent out from that place. Since they
have taken up the crusade, it is told,
the pictures have become a powerful
force for temperance in the town and
amazing results have materialized.
When the moving picture show was
an unknown luxury in Pottsville, the
miners were wont to flock to the sa-
looms and there squander for drink
earnings that were sadly needed at
home. To the monetary loss and the
priyation and suffering of the family
were added the sickness and loss of
time incident to the illness that alec
hohc indulgence invariably entails.
The introduction of the motion pic
lures changed all this Now instead of
fiocking to the drinking places the min
ers go to the picture shows with their
families, with the result that they are
temperate, happier, healthier, and in
addition to providing for the comfort
of their families, are able to store
away a little money in the bank.
