PAPPYCRATIC PRAYER.
By President Tumulty.bug, in
Fool Killer.
o thou great and mighty Pappy
of Rome, dad of deception and
father of fraud, behold us as we
fall on our bellies before thee.
Yes. Pappy. just watch us root
our noses in the dirt in esder to
smell of thy holy tracks, Thou
knowest that We are thy little
yaller dogs and whenever We fail
to do thy Romish will, then We
pray thee to kick us with thy
sacred foot. We consider it an
honor to even be kicked by thee.
And a still greater honor to kiss
thy big toe. Poke it out here and
let US kiss it right now. Yum
pum!-how good it tastes. And
the smell of it soothes our senses
like the sweet odor of q hoss's
foot.
And now. o mighty Dad of the
Tiber, we bsseech thee to hear our
supplications. We, thy faithful
dupes here in America, are in sew
eral bushels of trouble. with no
way of getting out unless thou
can help us. We have ever been
mindful of thy wise counsel with
which thou hast often warned
US against the sin of thinking or
allowing others to think. We
know that thy mighty bald head
encloses the only brain on earth
that has any right to think for
itself, and we count it blessed
privilege to take our thoughts
ready made from thee.
But, o Pappy it grieves our
hearts to tell thee that the:e has
arisen here in America a class of
stubborn bigots who insists on
thinking for themselves. Not
only that, but they are so wicked
and depraved that they f1etly
deny thy authority to dictate
terms to an American citizen {.
They have some sort of devilish
doctrine that they call "Sepa-
ration Of church aad state" which
is an open insult of thee, O Pap
py. and terrible crime against
thy infallibility. These poor
blind heretios evon 60 80 far ss to
deny that thou art infalliable.
and they have started an Anti.
Catholic crusade that is knocking
the shine out of thy halo right
along.
Now what wouldst thou advise
US to do about these things, O
Pappy? We are working on an
idea, and We would like to know
if it meeteh with thy approval
A war with Mexico is what we
have decided Oh as being the most
likely tc side-track the Anti.
Catholic special that now has the
right of-way in the American
mind. We hate like the dickens
to make war on good Catholic
country like Mexico, but some
| thing must be done and this is the
only thing we can think of
| Wouldn't 1t be q good idea tt
lpromise the Mexicans that all oj
