The United States infinitely prefers
peace to war and productive industry
to waste of life and substance. but it
nevertheless has the fiber. upon proper
occasion, to put national security and
future happiness above present indi-
vidual comfort. The question of the
hour is not whether we want war, for
we do not want it-but whether we
can stay out Of the war watching eth

are making in defense of their liber-
ties, and still confidently hope on our
part ITO secure the blessings Of liberty
TO ourselves and our posterity."

England's myrmidons combined can
not throttle the free expression of
opinion. We prophesied that we might
have something to say ourselves of Sir
Cecil Spring-Rice's activities. To these
we would beg to call the attention OF
the department Of state.
Sir Cecil Spring-R Rice made visit
to the state department early in July.
He sought, the newspaper reports tell
US, a definition OF the views OF the
American government as to whether
English patriotic societies or other I'M
official agencies violate neutrality laws
in sending subjects OF Great Britain
from the United States to volunteer In
the English army" 1t was given out
that the British government intended
to register IAN emphatic protest II the
United States takes the position that
it is Illegal" Sir Cecil Spring Rice's
visit was inspired by the indictment in
San Francisco OF persons charged with
enlisting recruits.
The Fatherland, be 1t admitted, had
foreknowledge Of the intention Of Ger
many to sink British ships carrying
munitions Of war to be used against the
citizens Of Germany. This knowledge
was not clairvoyant, esoteric, or In any
way secret. 1t was conveyed to the
world In the warning Of Germany, OF
Feb. 4, 1915.
The Fatherland is in possession OF
other knowledge. It Is aware that
British agents are working turnout the
United States to secure recruits Tor
the British army. 1t is aware that
agents Of other countries. affiliated
with or working under :Ae British OIL
cial representatives in Washington, are
seeking to enlist recruits among other
nationalities for the armies OF the
British allies. 1t is aware. further, tha-
these agents. in criminal violation OF
the neutrality Of the United States, are
seeking to turn subjects of Austria
Hungary against their sovereign ma
ton and to induce them treacherously
to repudiate their national duties ana
obligations and to serve In the armies
OF great Britain. After Sir Cecil
Spring -Rice's visit officials OF the de-
partment Of justice pointed out that
the criminal code prohibits the enlist
ment of any person in the United TO
fight against the people Of a friendly
nation. BY this certain persons known
to Sir Cecil Spring Rice, persons en-
tete with his excellency, are guilty OF
crime.
The Fatherland believes. on evidence
adduced, that an investigation into the
activities of the British Ambassador
should be instituted at once. The
Fatherland is inclined to believe that
has knowledge Of crime.-Tne

by newspaper men and others and the
official recognition that has been given
it by Governor Clarke, good roads
boosters have every reason to feel juoi-
liant The evangelistic work which they
have been carrying on so faithfully for
so long a time is beginning to bear
fruit. Skeptics are beginning to hit
the sawdust trail. In a way, 1t has
been a long pull and hard pull, and
II is rather remarkable that 1t should
have been SO, considering Iowa's en-

the way, and il is confidently hoped
that the good roads commission will
be able to do that very thing.

been completed at Garner at cost OF
$4,000, Of which $500 was contributed
by Andrew Carnegie. and the balance
raised by the sale of the old library

ChflStlaQS and SUBJECT them TO the despOtlc
rule OF the papacy.
Jerome's Vulgate is but Latin translation
from the original Hebrew and Greek manu-
scrpts-a very faulty translation at that.
There never was day that the Jews did
not possess the Old Testament and for many
generations after Jerome's translation, the
Eastern Catholics (Greek) possessed the orig
inal manuscripts of the New Testament
What did the Popes do with those original
manuscripts, after they had tjrahtred e0ith
them so often?
Jerome's version hung fire long while,
but was finally received into papal favor.
The Council Of Trent adopted it. Yet Pope
Sixtus V. ordered a new edition, twenty years
afterwards.
In this new version, so many errors were
found, that it was called in and destroyed.
The infallibe Sixtus V had published the
new Bible, saying that he had corrected it
with his own hand, "from certain knowledge,
and from the plentitude Of Apostolic power"
and be, decreed, officially. that it should be
received, without any doubt or controversy"
Nevertheless, another infallible Pope (Cle-
ment WHY repudiated the edition which
his apostolic predecessor had. as he saidS

authorities as Louori and Bellarmine.
Inasmuch as Hardeman did not allow the
Protestant school at Nashville to teach him
anything. I will take his education in hand,
and endeavor to pierce his gray matter with
a few rays of light.
The fourth rule of { Index, following the
Council Of Trent reads as follows:
"Inasmuch as it is manifest from experience,
that if the Holy Bible, translated into the vulgar

bishop to some pious use and be subjected by the
bishop to such other penalties the bishop shall
judge proper, according to the quahy OF the
offense.
But regulars shall neither read nor purchase
such Bibles, WITHOUT A SPECIAL LICENSE
from THEIR SUPERIORS."
What answer can Hardeman make to
that?
Catholic laymen have no right to use their
own brains, and their own conscience, on the
most tremendously important question that
can agitate the human soul.
Christ said: "Search the Scriptures, for
in them We think We have eternal life, and
they are they aohich testify for me-"
The Pope says: do not search the Scrip
tures without written permit from some
other man; and | am the potentate to appoint
that man., and he will prevent you from seeing
that the Scriptures do not testif~' for me!''
Hardeman has never read the standard
works of St. Alphonsus Lignori, the favorite
theologian of the vatican.
At the risk of being again indicted for
quoting from this foul-minded Old Italian
priest, will tell Hardeman what the Popes
favorite says about Bible-reading:
'The Scriptures may not be permitted in
the vernacular tongue, as also they can not
be read a0ithout pe1mojssiom."
Cardinal Bellamine, another Vatican fav-
orite, says:
"The Catholic Church forbids the readipq
Of the Scriptures by all, without choice, or
the public reading or singing of them in vul-
gar tongues, as 1t Is decreed ine~the Council of
Trent"
For Hardeman's information. will make

No Attack on Religious Liberty
Hardeman endeavored to deceive Catholics
and Protestants alike, when he accused the
Junior Order of seeking to interfere with re-
hglous liberty. No such purpose is theirs,
or mine.
AS long as the Catholics used their religion
as form of worship. only, there was never
any feeling against them. Our forefathers
permitted the first Catholic immigrants to
peacefully settle in the New World although
this Republic was established mainly as an
asylum for those fugitives who were fleeing
from the Old World to escape the tyranny
of kings and the murderous persecution of
popes.

has been the canonical creed of Rome, ever
since the days of Gregory VII. in the Middle
Ages.
According to that doctrine briefly stated,

the Pope considers to be his right.

Pope, Is the Pope.

AS to BibIe-Reading.
Are Catholics allowed to read the Bible,
with the same freedom enjoyed by PrOtos-
tants?
Hardcman replies:
The same old falsehood about the Catholic
Church forbidding her children to read the Bible
is dug up again. Probably this writer does not
know that educated people have stopped repeat
S1OeFF VOv,
any other Council of the Church ever forbade
Catholics to read the Bible; the other hand all
Catholics encouraged to study the Holy
Scripture. Is this writer grossly ignorant that
he does not know that the Catholic Church pre-
served the Scriptures and brought them down to
through all the centuries since Catholic hands
wrote them? Why man, if it had not been for
the Catholic Church you would never have seen.

''Out of charity. let us suppose this man."
Hardeman, "never read very much OF the
Bible nor of anything else worth while, ''or
he could not write the rot he does"
If he knows anything Of the history of
the Romanist Bible he IS aware of the fact
that it is comparatively modern and cor
rupt version of the Scriptures.
It was not put in shape until more than
1870 years after Christ.
The original Vulgate manuscript is kept

The Greek Catholic Church always pre-
served the Bible; and that older branch of
the Christian faith has a more venerable and
more correct CODY than the patchwork Vul-
gate. hidden away st Rome.
The Armenian Christians are older than
