Traitors 10 Common Good
To the charge made BY the emissaries Of the
papal system, that we are creating religious preju.
dice, we make short answer: I'VE grant You the
same right we demand for ourselves. to worship
a. conscience dictates; but when you attempt 70
substitute the cruel and despotic pspal system Of
government for our free democratic system, we
brand you as traitors to the common good"
The papal system aims al securing control Of
our government and yet the conduct used in the
campaign to do so is coarse, undignfed and Grim
inal 20 the highest extreme. Public speakers are
intimidated, threatened, assaulted, beaten and
murdered. Those who rent their buildings for
the purpose Of holding political meetings are
treated In much the same manner as the speaker
Men who desire political Office are threatened,
blackmailed and coerced The press, through fear
OF the boycott, is driven to uphold in large meas
ure the unlawful acts Of the papa conspirators Our
public schools are assailed as ungody and vicious
The papal speakers, teachers, priests and press
conspire to bring reproach upon our public schools
and so far as possible to destroy their influence
for good. In fact every species Of villainy which
the lowest wretches on Earth can practice or in
vent is resorted to- in the effort TO make America
dominantly Roman Catholic.
The things our people have already suffered
from papal domination in political affairs are in

charges, when every well informed man in Amer
lea knows now aud has known for years that they
are true.
Conditions Compel Hazardous Risks
We realize that the reason papal encroach.
ment in the United States has not long ago been
met and crushed is because il is dangerous for
those who take the initiative No one is secure
in his person or property who makes such charges
as We have made against such a powerful and
unscrupulous enemy. But there are conditions
and situations in life which compel men, even at
the risk Of life itself, to stand forth and boldly
dsnounce wrong.
Such a condition has come 10 US The lie Of
our free institutions is az stake and We do not
hesitate to take our stand on the side that we
know 10 be right. We know full well the dangers
which we must encounter, vet We accept the re-
sponsibility without fear. The threat, the boy
cott, assault even murder itself shall have no
terror for u.s.
II at the cost Of our lives America can be
made free from papal rule we will not hesitate
to make the sacrifice.
A few lives now, may save millions Of lives
at a later time
You need not fear TO take the side Of the
people in this contest. The papal agents make
cxtrayagant claims of their power in politics but
we saw 10 you that a careful estimate Of their
claims compared with the facts will show that
their influence is not to be dreaded II boldly met

Democratic Candidate Ex-
pected to Come Out for
Commission of Non-parti-
san Experts.
LIKES BUDGET PLAN
First Address May Indicate
Support of Policy Calling
For Adequate National De-
fense.

Administration Of the federal gov.
ernment's affairs on a business basis
That, in brief, is to be the platform
on which John NJ. Lontz of this city
will conduct his campaign for the
Democratic nomination for representa-.
tive in congress.
Lontz will outline his platform in
detail when he delivers his first ad.
dress of the primary election cam.
paign at the Democratic banquet
which will 0e held in Richmond on the
evening of February z.
Although the Democratic party has
never endorsed the plan Of taking the
tariff out Of politics and entrusting 1t
to a commission of experts 1t Is under;
stood that Lontz In his address at the
Democratic banquet will give his en-.
dorsement to the tariff commission
plan as the most satisfactory method
of establishing the nations business
on a safe, normal basis. -
The anticipated endorsement Of the
tariff commission plan on the part OF
Lontz will be in sharp contrast to the
attitude Finly H. Gray, the other as
rant for the Democratic congression-
al nomination has assumed toward this
question during the three terms Gray
has served In congress. Gray has con-
sistently championed the continuance
of the policy of keeping the tariff in
the ands of congress-, or, in other
words, in politics. Republican stand
pat politicians have assumed the same
attitude toward this question.
It is also probable that Lontz will
provide in his platform plank ap-
proving of the Inauguration of fed
eral budget system as a cure for the
pork barrel evil.
Another one of the principal planks
in the Lontz platform, it is said, is a
pledge to support any policy calling
for adequate national defense.
