Ex-priest p. A. Seguin not only published
the same Latin, but translated the same Latin
into extremely nasty English.
Yet they did not dare to arrest Seguin,

sold his obscene books all over the town. He
rubbed elbows with priests while he was in

In my personal experience in converts and

That awful charge was published in Deem

brave FIaherty picked out the printer and the
barber, and jumped on them. They had no

The barber and the printer did not vouch
for the oath: Bishop Fernando did.
The eX-prlest had said in his December 1912
magazine, that during the time he was on the
inside of the Roman church he had seen many
such oaths, with the same murderous ideas
and the same barbarous language, and that it
was not uncommon for these hellish oaths to be
signed In the blood of those who took them
The Philadelphia printer had not said any
thing like that. The barber did not say he
had seen just such oaths inside the popish
institutions
But Dr. Fernando did say that he had seen
just such oaths, that he knew them to have
been signed in blood, and that from the hn01cz-
edge he ga5ncd on the inside. he believed that
the 4th Degree knights did swear to that
devilish oath

Railroads and the EX-
press Companies?
THE great railroad systems which cross the
! country, from sea to sea, fought off the
digging Of canal, either at Nicaragua or in
Panama
They dreaded the competition of ocean
going freight, which is so VIGOROUSLY cheaper
than railroad freight
At last Roosevelt impulsively and law
lessly grabbed hold of the job, and damned it
through. While railroad lobbyists and rail
road Congressman were obstructlng and
clubbing. Roosevelt snatched up the whole
business and walked off with it.
In fact, he had the Army and the Navy at
his back and seemed quite willing to shoot
any son of gun who interfered.
Various obstructive sons Of guns, realized
this, and not particularly desiring to-be shot,
stood out Of Roosevelt's way,
So we got the Canal, at cost of about five
hundred million dollars, all of which money
was paid in the taxes of the producers, and
not a cent of it by the railroads, or Mr..
Hearst, or Mr.. Hearst's railroads.
But now come the railroads, mainly by way
of the Hearst newspapers and the Hearst
literary pot-boilers. and the Hearst political
boot-licls; and we are told that American
vessels must be given the Special Privilege of
using the Canal free of charge
Special Privilege Is azooays q hog, fire.

In this Panama case, Special Privilege
would be brother to the Money Trust, twin
brother to the Railroad Combine. and brother
in-law to John d. Rockefeller
If you grant that Special Privilege to any
ships whatever, the railroads will own the
ships, and by means of these ships acting on
the Rebate principle-will drive off COMPETE
ton.
When the railroads put the Big Pistol Of
the Rebate principle to the temple Of the
other ships, the other ships will get out-as
Rockefeller's competitors used to get out
Thus the Special Privilege which is
demanded for the American ships will not
only deprive you of the benefits of competi-
ton in ocean-going freight, but will &C

his anti-corporation platform and speeches?
He will soon have to face betrayed con-

Let him also explain why he sided with the
Express Companies, and tried to kill the Par

What a Western Man Says He
Would Do Were He i'm

THE following is a part of letter which
comes from California;


regardless of all law, and I should help to make
better laws to protect white women, or all white
folks, by allowing no law to protect niggers that
commit any crime upon white people. Cant
get a bill into Congress to deport to Africa, all
negroes that do not real estate to the amount
of five Thousand dollars If the rifraf of negroes
were deported, and those left committed such
crimes, then deport the entire lot. They never
can be else but negroes and iends, and as such
peril to this nation.
It is difficult for the people Of other Sec
lions to realize the dangers which constantly
beset every white woman in the South.
No prudent man leaves his women-folk
unprotected. Nobody can tell who will be the
next victim. The great trouble is, that each
white woman somehow deludes herself with
the idea that it cannot happen to her.
Too often, the man Of the house acts upon
the theory that it cannot happen at his house.
Nothing is more curious and more perplex-
ing than human nature. One of the Roman
emperors said that it was a aource of misery
to him that he could not make his friends
believe that he was in danger of assassination.
Soon afterwards, he was assassinated.

Too often those self confident girls dis
appear altogether, Or are found after they
have reached a stage where innocence and
hope are gone.
Now, our California friend thinks we
ought to have Vigilantes. In the wild DAYS,
out West murderers and horse thieves were
not elegantly boarded in city jail, served
by high priced lawyers, and given headlines
on the front page of the daily paper.
They were not given the opportunity to
employ frst-class detectives after their con-
viction by the highest court.
The highest courts did not turn them loose
on the community because the article 'the"
had been left out of the Indictment by the
prosecuting attorney.
They could not get new trials, on the ground
that the attitude of the presiding Judge had
seemed to be unfriendly.
They could not keep. their cases in court
until the witnesses had died, or had been
spirited away. or the prosecution had become
tired and discouraged.
No! In those wild Western DAYS. the Vigil
lantes caught their man, extemporized a com
mittee to make sure of his guilt; and then
they either shot him full of holes, or they left
him dangling by the neck from a swinging
limb.
1t was a Lynch Law, and it made good

When those three negroes were caught in

IS RADIATION FROM WITHIN
Source of True Joy Need Not Be Looked For in the Out
 side Things.

The oil of joy springs from the well of being, rising up through the rock of wisdom and flowing gently down through the stream of life, to be partaken of by all who recognize it's existence and realize it's efficacy.
 Mistaken, indeed, are those who i'm agine that joy is something that arises from outside things. It is some thing that comes from within Many a soul has been deprived of all the outer things which are generally thought necessary to happiness-and yet has heard in it's heart the song of joy.
 The man on the street who knows nothing of the source or real nature of true joy, recognizes fully the ad- vantage possessed by the person who has ever reflected image of joy in his soul; and he also realizes the dis advantage attached to those who lack this feeling of joy, and who go through life grumbling, complaining, fault finding-those wet blankets, kill joys, gloom dispensing, crepe hanging "grouches," who serve only to tor ment humanity-William Walker At kinson in Nautilus.

There is much ahead of us. We don't know what gravity is; neither do we know the nature of heat, light ani electricity, though we handle them a little. We are only animals. We are coming out of the dog stage and getting a glimpse of our environment. We don't know, we just suspect few things. It will take an enormous evolution of our brains to bring us anywhere. Our practice of shoot ing one another in war is proof that we are still animals. The make up of our society is still hideous.- Thos. A. Edison.

MEXICAN SITUATION IS NERVOUS.

The public is now in such state of mind that it is not surprised at anything that happens in Mexico. One thing is certain, and that is that Huerta will not be the ruler of Mexico for many more days. Huerta has been sustained and supported largely by the Roman Catholic church and as General Villa has intimated that he ex- poets to hang every Catholic priest and bishop that is left when he takes the City of Mexico, and as it appears that Villa will be able to capture Mexico City in short time, it will be seen that Huerta and his Catholic machine are in a desperate situation. The threat on the part of General Villa against the Catholic dignitaries is reported in the dispatches as being based on the facs that the Catholic church has furnished many millions of dol lars to the Huerta govern nent. This is probably true, but General Villa realizes that the Catholic priests and bishops in Mexico have designedly kept the working class es in ignorance and poverty so that the few could own the many as helpless slaves. All the revolu- tionists are particularly bitter against the priests and bishops, very much like the French peas ants were when they brought on the great French revolution of 1789 in which they hung a priest on one side of a lamp post and a feudal lord or nobleman on the other side, holding both equally re- sponsible for the poverty and mis- cry existing at that time in France. Mexico is much like France in
 lz89, suffering from the same identical causes, the corruption and rottenness of the church and state.

THE PROGRAM IN CONGRESS.

President Wilson and the Demo- cratic leaders in Congress have finally reached an agreement as re- gards the program of legislation at this session of Congress. It is now agreed that as soon as bill repeal ing the free tolls becomes a law, Congress is then to pass the ad- ministration antitrust bills and the usual appropriations and then go home and repair their political fences. President Wilson was par ticularly anxious that a bill should be passed establishing banks of farm credits. but it is realized by all that the prolonged debate on the Panama Canal tolls and the unforeseen developments in the Mexican situation have rendered it impossible for Congress to carry out the full desire of the President. However, the farm credet or rural credit bill will have the right-of- way when Congress meets next December. It is even argued by some that it is better that the pro- gram should run this way and that the rural credit banks should fol- low the establishment of the new currency system of regional banks now being established so that the rural credit banks can be made to fit into and harmonize with the regional banks.
