there had departed from this country
1,452,239 back to their native coun-
tries, leaving a net gain of foreigners
here for the past five years $780,
746 immigrants, and this has been
going on for a quarter Of century.
These are Italians, Poles, Hebrews,
Germans, English, Scandanavians,
Irish, Greek, Meggars, Slovak and
Scotch.
With the exception of the English
and Scotch all of these speak a diff
feTent language from Americans, and
from one another, and while many
of them have different religions, the
most of them are Roman Catholic,
notably the Italians, Poles and Irish.
With these millions of Roman Catho-
lie immigrants come their Catholic
priests, under the authority of the
Curia of the Vatican, to colonize,
control, educate and use them ac-
cording to the dictates Of Rome,
rather than let these people unfold
under and into American ideas The
most Of the Italian immigration
comes from Southern Italy, and not
more than one in four of them can
read and write EVEN IN THEIR
OWN COUNTRY. These are the
kind of people who are coming to
our country nearly million a year.
They come to better their wretchedly
Wretched conditions; they come in
response to great ship companies
who make fortunes out of them;
they come in response to the Roman
Curia which desires to make them
citizens Of the United States in the
period Of five years, and then to hold
them as voters for ROMAN -CATHO-
Lie POLITICS in this country.
Only one-fourth Of Roman Catho-
lie immigrants can read The Bur-
nett immigration bill has ''Litera-
cy" test in it requiring that no immi-
grant, except children, who can't
read shall be allowed to come to this
country. NOW, DO YOU SEE WHY
THE CARDINALS, B / S H o P s.,
PRIESTS, AND SHIP COMPANIES,
AND ROMANIZED POLITICIANS
ARE OPPOSED TO THIS BILL? IF
THIS BILL WE'RE PASSED IT

How it Has Been Built to Date.
Once in the worlds history, "Je-
hovah said unto Abraham, get thee
out Of thy country, and from thy
kindred, and from thy fathers house,
unto the land that [ will show thee;
and [ will make Of thee a great ma
ton, and | will bless thee, and make
thy name great; and be thou bless
ing; and / will bless them that bless
thee, and him that curseth thee will
curse: and in thee shall all the fami-
lies Of the earth be blessed. Gen.
12:1-3
How God directed Abraham, and
enlarged him, and increased his fam
lily in Canaan, sent his posterity into
Egypt, and afterward brought them
out of Egypt and made Of them q
special people, through whom came
the Bible the Prophets, and, finally,
the Christ, all Christian people
know.
In modern history this ancient
story of Genesis has had a new and
larger parallel. 1t was when the
Pilgrims started on their Journey
across the Atlantic to America AS
those Pilgrims marched from their
church to sail for America, their
Pastor, JOHN ROBINSON, read this
passage from Genesis, and they en-
barked to establish a colony where
man might worship God according to
the dictates of his conscience, with
none to impose hindrances by Church
or State Laws. In the course of the
year came ROGER WILLIAMS who
more clearly grasped the idea of re-
ligiOus freedom, and in the course of
time it became one Of the great prin-
ciples of the American Constitution.
New Englanders, Virginians, CaroIi-
mans, and Georgians, the colonists,
finally all adopted thees ideas, and
they and their descendants have
built here this wonderful nation Of
the free Here PrOtestants, CathO-
lies, Separatists, Independents, Jews,
and Pagans have been welcomed to
work out their destiny in the land
Of the free. The nation has grown
as no nation ever grew. 1t has be-
come the giant nation Of the earth.
It is wealthy, cultured powerful, and
standing among the nations of the
earth, respected, honored and feared.
But Her Greatness is Threatened.
There is a POWER BEYOND THE
SEA whose Rulers have never be-
lieved in either a FREE CHURCH
OR A FREE STATE. And this
POWER, THE PAPACY, has set in
motion all of it's forces to subvert
America.
It's plan may be seen in several
things.
1. IMMIGRATION.
immigration to America has no
parallel in human history. When
Israel was led out of Egypt it was
one of the marvels of history, but
there were but about 100000 of
those people, and they were of one
race, language, custom and religion
The Barbarians who overwhelmed
Rome and changed the history of
Europe were few in numbers as COM
pared with the numbers of immi-
grants coming to this country, Gen
serie, a great leader of the Barba-
rians, never had more than $4,000
warriors The numbers of Normahs
who conquered England, were but a
handful in comparison. The Cru
saders in their wars and changes of
population made one of the great
epOchs in human history. But more
immigrants have come to- the United
States in the last six years than

bilities, largely, the future
ia destiny of the world. For
this reason Roman Catholi-
cism has determined, in it's
Curia, at the Vatican, to dominate
the United States. Shall the United
States in the future be governed
from Washington? or Rome? These
are the questions | shall study with
You at this hour.
Our country holds in it's possibili-
ties, largely, the future destiny of
the world.
Americas Home Problem.
The United States is, today, the
richest country of the world, and is
destined to become far richer and
more powerful yet.
The United States faces two great
oceans. With the exception Of Cana
da, no other nation has a great coast
line on both the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans. So, the United States faces
the nations of Europe that have
figured so largely in the past history
Of the world, and also the Pacific to-
wards which the awaking Orient
looks with eager eyes and hearts,
athrill with hope and expectation.
The six great naval powers of the
world, in their usually accepted or
der, are Great Britain, Germany, the
United States, France, Japan and
Russia. 1t is significant that the
United States has such a stretch of
coast-line on both the East and the
West. Our Government has more
coast-line and more great harbors
n Of
United States is the nearest great
power to the undeveloped parts of
the world-Canadian Northwest,
Alaska, Siberia, Australia, and South
America The Panama Canal will
bring all of these countries much
nearer to us. The United States has
many great harbors. No European
nation has more than two or three
great harbors. Germany has no di-
rect outlet on the Atlantic. Great
Britain commands that ocean on the
European side The United States
commands the American coast of the
Atlantic, the Pacific and the Gulf of
Mexico on the South. BY oceans and
Gulf she is strategically placed to
reckon with the world, and to be
reckoned with by the world.
All Of Europe has but 1900 miles
Of navigable rivers. The United
States now has $4,000, with. posi-
bilities of vastly more by dredging.
Napoleon once said: 'FThe nation
which controls the Mississippi Valley
will be the most powerful nation on
EARTH
The United States is most favora-
bly, situated for internal development
being separated by thousands Of
miles of ocean from other world
powers. Great Britain, Germany,
France, and Russia must daily guard
their frontiers where restless mil
lions touch their borders.
Then, too, our country is in the
great north temperate zone. Much
of Russia is too cold and barren even
to be greatly developed Much Of
South America and Africa are too
hot for the greatest development.
Our wonderful country is best situa-
ted of any on the globe from the
stand point of nature. God has not
SO mapped this portion of the earth
without divine purpose in His and
mans world-building.
The Material Resources of the United
States.
Size is not everything in weighing
power, as the world learned when
Russia and Japan went to war a few
years 80. But biguess has much in
its favor when other things are equal.

essay on "Ciyic Pride"
Under tumultuous applause the
Governor then presented the medal
to MIR. Tully. who espoused thanks
in few words.
Under the toast 1.-The Oldest 1nhab-
liant of the City" Carl Bannwart,
secretary of the Shade Tree Commits
sion, spoke of Newark's trees and
Newark's park system.
John O'Connor in humorous man
ner spoke of the shortcomings of the
Roseville trolley facilities and Com
missioner Congleton discussed the
duties of the business men toward
their community. He urged them to
devote a little more of their time to
public questions, not when they af-
fected them personally, but also in
the interest of the whole city.
Mr.. O'Toole was assigned to the
toast, MY Alibi," but instead of Civ
ing the perhaps expected apologies
and excuses for trolley conditions, he
condensed few facts and delivered
them straight from the shoulder. He
had no alibi for the complaint of open
windows on rainy days and damned
cars, referred to by a previous
speaker. considerable attention was
paid to his remarks, which showed
! the Public Service view Of the rush
hour conditions.
Improbable Problem.
| Il venture to say there is not a
| person in the room who will agree
with me when 1 say the Public Serv-
ice would, if permitted, stop trolley
traffic; not turn a wheel during the
rush hours" said Mr.. O'Toole. I'll
may seem an incredulous statement
that the rush hour problem is an I'M
| profitable one for the Public Service
when you consider the conditions
here which send such an enormous
| traffic in the morning in one direction
and the evening tide when people are
returning from business to theil
homes the statement is quite logical
About 100000 passengers are accom-
| modated in the morning rush from
to o'clock and in the evening from
$50 to 7:30 o'clock.
But during the intervals, or five
sixths of the twenty-four hours time
the large equipment necessary for the
rush hours is idle. The rush necessi.
tates twice the number of cars nee
| essary for ordinary use. Many OF
the cars are lying idle and there is

Spurred on by the success Of the
second annual banquet of the Rose

last night. officials of that organt-
zation have decided to set apart May
II each year for the celebration oe
"Roseville Day" The entire section
joined with the improvers in making
& demonstration of civic pride and
Governor James f. Fielder, guest of
honor at the dinner, urged the con-
tinuation of the good work.
The list of speakers for the occa-
sion were particularly fitted to de-
pict the benefits and necessities of
Roseviffe. The SEQ persons who at
tended tie dinner. a score of whom
We're women, received the utmost en-
enlargement in their plans for Il
bigger and better Roseville.
In addition to the speech Of the
Governor, the Rosevillites were erat-
ed to inside Information on the plans
of the Public Service Railway Com
pany for better traffic facilities, and
those of the Board OF Works for
street improvements. john l..
O'Toole, publicity agent of the Pub
lie Service Corporation, outlined the
present trolley Improvement plans
and announced that the railway was
in favor of the 'skip-stop' plan.
This scheme would alleviate in n
great measure, he said, the difficulty
now experienced. during the rush
hours He pointed out that the plan
would first need the approval of the
public officials in the way of an or
dinance permitting the operation of
the plan.
Governor Fielder was brought tC
the banquet from his home in jersey
City by automobile. At Bridge and
Broad streets, this city, the guest OF
honor and those who had called fol
him were met at half-past Z o'clock

JERSEY CITY, May 15.-Who
played that joke on Thomas skinner?
Mr. Skinner, who lives at SIS Fifth
street, this city, received shock yes
terday when he learned that his
daughter, Tessie, had suddenly died
in Asbury Park. When he had suf-
ficiently recovered from the shock
Mr.. Skinner notified local under
taker to have the body shipped to
this city.
Now an undertaken has never been
credited with being able to discern a
joke, so he sent two assistants to As
bury Park to prepare the body. The
assistants went to the shore resort
but when they knocked at the door
of 115 Ocean avenue they were met
by Miss Tessie herself, bright and
cheerful and looking far from dead.
When the undertakers' assistants eX-
planned their mission Miss Tessie at
first grew indignant and declared
that If her father wished to see her
she would come to Jersey City her
self and without the aid of an under
takers hearse. Later she notified her
father that she was still among the
( living. Now MIR. Skinner wants to
know who is the person with the alb
normal propensities of a humorist.
