HOW PRIESTCRAFT
INTIMIDATES PRESS
Frank Confession from One
Roman Catholic Editor

Rome has aia 1t three hundred
publications in the United States,
a few Of which are written for
their effect on5the public and for
|circulation among catholics.
Those few Sunday Visitors, Har-
monisers, Atitidotes, etc. are care
full to preach popery as they would
have the publie to see it; but the
great mass of parish monthlies and
diocesan organs are quite frank in
advocacy Of the boycott and strong
arm methods so long used by the
Inquisition.
Among the many o. Rome's peri.
Iodicals which usually circulate
among papists only, and which
therefore do not patch so many
| lfig-leayes to cover the naked truth,
lis the official Roman Catholic
sodality organ called The Queen I
Work which il published at St
Louis. The November number con,
tains the following editorial the
brutal frankness Of which is more
THAN interesting:
Curbing the Press
The daily papers are aometimes very
unjust to Catholic interests and make no
marks which show huge ignorance o,
Catholic practice and doctrine. What d

than antsgonize the man in the street.
An interesting instance Of this trutl
occurred not long ago In one OF our East
ern cities. The paper In question haC
savagely attacked q Catholic institution
without any color Of excuse. One Of th,
pastors OF the city wrote to the edito
to demand a Just retraction. He wal

Press dispatches tell how the
Irish Of New York hissed the name
of Admiral Sims when it was men,
toned at one of their seditious
gatherings in that city. 1t is evil
dent where the snakes went to
when St. Patrick banished them
from Ireland. They hiss the presi-
dents name with equal readiness ;
but there is no record Of their
making that characteristic noise of
a goose or snake when their friend
and ally. the onetime kaiser, was
the subject Of public discussion.

The patriots of Syracuse, New
York, know bow to discriminate
when 1t comes to the election Of
commissioners to administer their
city schools, At the recent election
there were four commissioners to
elect. Each party ticket, Democrat
and Republican, offered four can
didates, two of each set papists and
two Americans The four Amcri-
cans were elected by unquestion-
able majorities and the four pa
pists we're as definitely defeated.
Good work.

what Is to be done about iti
The first thing 10 be done Is for
the American people TO rcalizc and
recognize that Rome is determined
to club all, critics Of Its game into
silence. When the papist press
confesses its tactics as plainly as in
the article we reprint from The
Queens Work, Aone need doubt the
intention to use It for all il can ac-
complish.
And when the mass Of law-abid-
ing citizens are once aware and

Effects of the New Contract Law.

Effects of the New Contract Law
The sudden change in the law soNet
ine future contract trading was the
main event in the cotton market las,
week. and it resulted in great deal OIL
confusion and uncertainty, altnouen a.
the end of the week the ring wore q
more settled look, with many proheIs
and traders expressing themselves as >
being confident that this week woulo W
see q more normal market with the
amendment to the cotton futures act
in Immediate effect, two forms OF con-
tract were necessary, in order 10 carry
out liquidation under the old law anu
execute orders under the new.
The market was suspended Weones.
dav in order to allow the machinery or
the exchange to be altered, but the
trading was resumed as usual Thurs-
day. and Saturday the market was In
full swing again with prices showing
strong upward tendency, indicating
that the trade considered the new con-
tract more valuable than the old, al
though one spot element which coLsid-
cred only the low grade discounts on
spots. claimed that the old contracts
were worth more than new. The net
results of the weeks trading, old con-
tracts alone considered, were advances
of Al to 194 points, At the highest
price on the closing session old May
contracts traded up to 23.45, while the
new contracts stood at $3.50. During
the week just ended the trade had ht-
tie opportunity to weigh purel- market
influences but this week 1t Is !lkeiy
that more attention will be paid TO
spot market and weather concltlons.-

Situation in Germany Desperate and
Requires Immediate Remedy.
The plans adopted by the supreme
war council in Paris Sunday night,
under which the negotiations with the
German authorities regarding the
turning over Of the German merchant
ships will be resumed, after their re-
cent interruption at Spa, provide 1or
the holding of the session of the ne
gotiators at Brussels. The Allied dele
gates will leave Paris next Wednesday
for the Belgian capital and the first
session in the resumption Of the nego-
tiations probably will be held Thursday
in one of the government palaces
there.
The plans determined upon by the
council as already stated, provide Tor
taking over the German merchant
ship in return for food supply Tor
Germany until the next harvest. The
chief difficulty thus far has been over
the manner of payment FOR the 1000
supplies, but the new proposals are
expected to meet the former op1ec-
tions.
II Is understood that the payments
will come from three sources-nrst,
in the form Of products such as coal
and potash; second, from credits Which
GERMANY has in neutral countries
which thus far have been unavailable
because of the financial blockade; ana
third. from foreign securities held py
Germany. ..oo
II is estimated that these three
sources will readily yield about so0o'-
moo 600. which is the sum required 10
nav for food relief to an extent CON
sidered adequate to carry the Ger
mans until the time Of their harvest.
From the nature OF the eSclldhsS sSo
during the negotiations at spa tne
Allied delegates have reason 10 eSo
meet that the new proposals VIII pe

belief generally prevails that an aus
iustment will be reached under wnlrh
