CORRECTION NO. TWO.

Some time ago we printed a notice
TO the effect that Lieutenant Governor
Thomas Morris. OF Wisconsin, candi.
date for the United States Senate,
was a Roman Catholic and a Knight
OF Columbus. The notice was fur.
nished us by the state recorder OF the
Guardians OF Liberty.
After this publication We received
a long letter In defense OF Mr.. Morris
by a member Of the Guardians at La
Crosse, and stating that Mr.. Morris
was not a knight The contents Of
the communication were sworn to and
we published a correction, presuming
that the state recorder was mistaken.
After the publication OF the "oorrec-
tion," We received a letter from the
state recorder "bawling US out" to a
queens taste. from whose letter we
take the following: Il never thought
The Menace stan a lot Of towards be-
fore, but you seem TO think the sworn
word Of a dupe of Rome of more con
sequence than that Of men who know
and OF authority. You never were any
use TO us In this state anyhow" etc.
etc. He also again takes the liberty
70 inform us that Mr.. Morris is a Cath.
ole and a knight.
Immediately following this letter
from the state recorder we received
a letter from the man who caused us to
make the correction" thanking us
for making II and stating that Mr..
Norris is n Catholic, but a patriot and
a good man for the ONCE and not n
knight This is a peculiar alignment
We admit, but We hold the proof.
About the same time we received a
letter from Mr.. Morris himself, STATING
that HE is a Catholic but NOT a
Knight Of Columbus. and until further
evidence develops We take Il that Mr..
Morris is a Catholic but. NOT a
Knight.
This incident Is a sample OF fwhat

The Vatican Hard Up

For some time past the news
has sifted through the press that
the revenue of the Vatican was
being gradually diminished, and
that the authorities we're drawing
on the musty millions in store TO
keep the "holy" graft in working
order. The great European war
makes the situation still more
desperate. Life and property is
being destroyed and for years to
come the people of Europe viii
undergo a period of reconstruc.
tion, in which it will take all the
available resources of the people
to keep soul and body together
there will be little left for Peter s
pence. That the situation pre-
sents a gloomy outlook to the big
grafters who run the "holy"
huInbug is evidenced in a Lon
don dispatch to the New York
American of Aug. %, from which
we take the following excerpt:
The most pressing Of all consider.
ations at the Vatican today Is the ne.
cessity of finding money to keep the
wheels OF the great machine moving.
For many years the Vatican has been
growing poorer and poorer. and the
tremendous destruction OF wealth now
going on In Europe, with the pauper-
izinS Of countless thousands, will for
many years 10 come curtail the con.
tributions-of European Catholics TO the
Golfers Of the Vatican.
Cardinal O'Connell Is believed 20 be
the one member Of the Sacred College
who can command the financial re-
sources that the Vatican needs so des-
perately. Furthermore, he has been
rector OF the American Church In
Rome and is personally popular among
the Italian cardinals.
As a matter of fact the people
are being educated, and their
growing intelligence is leading
them away from paganism. AS
they lose faith in the alleged eff
ficiency of "holy" bones and other
Jim cracks by which the priests
have for centuries separated them
from their money, naturally the
revenue diminishes, and while the
priests themselves are at a loss to
understand the cause, it is plain
as day to the man of average in
telhgence. The war will make il
worse for popery, of course, but
popery was doomed before the
war, and the war will only has
ten the end.
Cardinal 0'Connel is believed
to be the one member of the 'Sa-
cred College who can command
the financial resources that the
vatican needs so desperately"
says the dispatch. And we
thought so.
0'Connell would make a beaut
of a pope-and the city of Wash
ington affords an excellent site
for a new vatican, and the aver
age American capitalist, who
finds it: necessary for business
reasons to control politics, would
be only too willing TO keep both
the vat and the can full Of the
long green in return for the Ro-
