Text of Cardinals Letter to Which
Germans Are Said to Haze Objected

LONDON. Jan. THE much-discussed
paragraphs of the pastoral letter OF
Cardinal Mercier which the Netherlands
newspaper Tijd said had been responsible
for bis arrest at the hands OF the German
military authorities in Belgium. an arrest
which the German authorities have cate
gorically denied. have been published in
pamphlet form in London. They are as
follows:
Il consider it an obligation OF my
pastoral charge to define your duties Of
conscience toward the power which has
invaded our soil and which at this time
occupies the greater part OF II. That
power has no authority in law. In the
sanctuary Of your soul you owe Il neither
esteem nor attachment nor obedience.
The sole legal power in Belgium is that
which IL derived from our king. our gov
eminent and the representatives OF the
nation. This alone for us represents
authority: this alone has a right to the
affections OF our hearts and to our sub
mission.
''Of themselves the acts OF those in
occupation arc without force; hut the
legal authority ratifies tacitly those acts
which are justified IN the general In
terest and from ratification alone they
derive ali their judicial worth.

The republican minority in the state

journal 20 the secretary. The report Of
the special legislative committee knocked
out the usual fat fec the secretary has
reaped In sessions past in preparing the

Senator Kiechel OF Nemaha introduced
the resolution, and Beal of Custer and

for the printing Of the journal each day
with sufficient extra copies to bind in

sion. Gates of sarpy tried to get the
credit for the democrats by sending up

the same as the Kiechel motion. and this
carried unanimously. but the credit for
forcing the matter belongs to the repub-
