ssThe 4th Degree Oath of the
knights of Columbus

TO meet the bluff and the falsehoods of
those Americans who have foresworn
loyal principles, and have become oath-bound
subjects of a foreign power I have carefully
prepared the above-named pamphlet.
The men who take that oath are traitors
to our government, and spies in our camp.
They are armed and drilled, as military
men, and kept in readiness to use their steel
swords, and their up-to-date rifles against
their fellow citizens.
Get my pamphlet and study the facts for
yourselves. Priced ten cents.
This question of Popery is the most import
ant question now facing the people of
America.

THE ERSONIAN

the only one which penalties religion by
hfe-lmprlsonment!
No other church lures young and beauti-
full women into the spider-weD of the nun
merry, and holds them in the control of the
spiders.
No other church erects vast establish
ments within a State, and then insolently
shuts the doors in the face of the State, and
says to the State, "You cannot open this
door,"
But with the Pope, we have a system
which builds huge dungeons, screened by
high walls, and into these dungeons the
Pope entices enthusiastic women who on
emotional impulse become prisoners for life
prisoners Of q foreign master!
And when the State says, "These women
are citizens to whom [ owe protection and
liberty" the Pope defantly answers, "Those
women voluntarily became my prisoners,
and although they may have changed their
minds, and want to get out of prison, they
shall never do So"
In what manner does this settled policy
of Rome agree with the law, with justice,
and with true religion!
It is law of the Roman Church that the
State shall not aid the prisoners of converts
to regain their freedom.
This law, re-afirmed by the Council of
AIOIlU3 OONCA oil llu11NISd yCdI0 dSO1 10 tLC Law
of Popery noaO.
That the Roman Church has such law,
is the most convincing evidence that the
priests and Pope hnoe0 that the prisoners do
want to regain their freedom-in at least
some cases.
Is it not illegal, un-Christian, and bar
barously cruel to keep any human being in
prison for life, when such person has not
committed crime!
In Protestant revivals, we see people 90
into emotional conditions which deprive
them temporarily of self-control. At such
a time humanity is capable of almost any
eXaltation, enthusiasm, self-sacrifce, and ex-
travagant action.
Later on, the excitement passes off, and
cool reason reasserts her sway.
Suppose a young girl or boy, during one
of these periods of religious ecstacy, should
take vow to cut off all social relations, and
to live in cell the remainder of life
Wouldn't it be the cruelest thing in the
world if the law permitted the church to
enslave that girl, or that boy, for life, be-
cause a temporary fit of enthusiasm carried
her, or him, from the anchorage of sanity?
No perpetual VOW should perpetuazzy de-
prive of liberty human beings whose minds
are incapable of perpetual sameness.

AIRY Tidings
In the August number, page 1870, we get
news from dear old Africa; and I pass it on
to you because you want to know what's
happening in that dear old land Of monkeys
and missionaries
Mr.. Lewis Hurt writes from Africa under
date of May /:
To-day completes four weeks of school for
this term. 1t is starting out well thus far. We
had forty-two boys here at the beginning but
one of them took leave Of absence one dark night,
SO we have forty-one at present. That is about
all that can be cared for Just now, and maybe
more than we can feed at this time. Besides
these boys who stay with us, there are fifteen day
pupils in school. That is more than last year I
think it is the result Of little special effort put
forth part. We have been trying to tell
the people at schieh1in just what trying
to do for the children. We tried to tell them
what object is in being here and also the
need of an aIl-round education. We hope these
children will keep in the school during the
term, but they have bad roads to come over.
eve are all trying to improve the time to good
advantage
They had forty two negro boys, feeding
them, lodging them, and giving them IAN
all-round education" but one of the coons
went wild, lone dark night" and fled back
to the Jungle.
AIFIu6uC1y3 u0 SOU ClI0u OI wearing OtlN
garments fshed out of the missionary clothes
barrel, and preferred the more becoming
uniformity of his black skin.
AS Mr.. Hurt insisted on his wearing
something more than full belly and sat
isfed expression of countenance, he chose
dark night, and broke liberty
Mr. Hurt is, therefore, reduced to forty
one coons, whom he feeds at the expense of
our churches, clothes and lodges at the ex-
pense Of the same and educates in the same
way.
Brother Hurt has been out in the Jungle
noratlng 1t around that he feeds negro boys,
and wants more boarders.
He will get them, no doubt
He would not have to do much advertising
of free grub in one of our American cities
before he would have all the boarders he
could lodge.
They wouldn't all be black children,
either.
When I see our churches maintaining free
boarding schools for negro children in
Africa, [ wonder how they came to go
crazy.
Mr. Hurt doesn't even pretend that he is
trying to Christianize these foreign coons
The American churches pay such men as
Hurt 5000 a year for this un-Scriptural
work, pay their wives another $500, and then
allow them 500 a year apiece for each
child
And they out there in Africa, feeding and
lodging little negroes
During every year, the Devil has a clear
track for three whole months with no mis-
sionary to interfere with has work.
How is that?
The missionaries are all at the mountain
retreats, taking their long, annual vacation.
Does the Devil ever take one?
