TTl HE New Reformation Is IN full
bYl swing. The loyal people Of the
IE nation are beginning to see
L the papal danger as never be-
fore. Information comes from every
quarter giving additional evidence Of
the great Coman conspiracy against
American freedom.
We thought we knew the situation
thoroughly but the accumulating evil
dence has given us genuine surprise.
We did not know how widely extended,
is the papal terror.
Since patriotic men and women
have come to know that the Free
Press Defense League is permanent
organization and is conducted by men
of integrity and ability, they have
taken new hope. They now see an
opportunity for deliverance from the
blight which rests upon them and
their respective communities. They
realize that under no possible circum-
stance will we divulge their names un-
less they themselves request it, and so
( they freely give facts to US as they
! know them.
The Dawn Of a New Day
J After years Of suffering from
threats, brow-beating, intimidation
assaults and boycott by papist tools,
our people can now clearly see the
light Of better day, and they re-
joice thereat.
/ The spirit Of T6 Is hero and there
showing evidence Of re-appearing
among the people.
Soon men and women moved with
patriotic zeal will 60 throughout the
Iland, into every city, town and ham
tlet, preaching and teaching the
I glorious principles Of THE NEW
( REFORMATION. The blessing Of
Divine Providence will be showered
upon them and their work. All the
powers Of evil and darkness cannot
prevail against them. The people will
welcome the light and the fear and
dread, which Is 30 necessary in the
papal scheme to make America DOM
inantly Roman Catholic, win disap-
pear.

right to speak in that city and was
Aarrested without warrant and held
fover night in Jail, has secured, judg~

have been impossible for him to have

At Saginaw, Michigan, the papists
