IN PORTUGAL
A REGIME OF PRESCRIPTION AND
RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION
is FEARED.

The ascendancy of the Democrat
group in Portugal is viewed with alarm
by a considerable section of the
people. who see in this event a pos
sible return to the conditions that fol
lowed the downfall of the Monarchy,
when a regime of prescription and
religious persecution was set up. The
state of affairs under the Costa regime
resulted in the prisons being crammed
with innocent people, who had been
refused trial; the Carbonarios held the
whole country in terrorism; the
Church was disestablished, and restric
lions of every kind were placed on the
practice of religion.
1t was against such a state of affairs
that Sidonio Paes conducted his sue
cessful revolution. His assassination
coupled with the rise of power of the
Democrat group, which has followed
on the complete overthrow of the
Royalist uprising, has brought about {
state of affairs, that the moderate ele
ments of the Portuguese people view
with apprehension.
The dominant Democrat group tool
| it's rise in movement that was begun
some thirty years ago. It's specia
animosity was directed against thu
| House of Braganza and the Jesuits
and, since it's access to power, its spe
cial policy has been to drive religion
not only from the schools but from tn
churches as well; to imprison it
political opponents, and to fore
through it's policies with every az
pearance of coercion and intolerance
