The menace. [volume] (Aurora, Mo.) 1911-1920, 1919-10-11

Grated aggregation is soon to make
a great advance. SO says Bishop
Muldoon Of the Big -Four some
other activities of which are men
toned in this paper. Mulloon and
his associated bishops have set out
to reconstruct America and bring
down the cost Of living, if they are
to be believed, by means Of coop
erative stores to drive out retail
merchants.
But that is not all the irish
bishop from Rockford has taken
on. He is not fighting bigotry
now, but he and many bishops and
thirty sociologists and economists
have been in session at Notre Dame
drawing up plans to fight Masonry.
There is nothing.new about that
to those who have been watching
Catholic capers, but there are prob
ably Masons yet who can't be per-
suaded that popery is the deadly
and persistent enemy Of their or
der and Of all for which Freema-
sonry stands.
There is the same trouble with
Freemasons that there is with
Americans generally---Rom has
been warning on them for CEN
turies and they have not been will
ing to realize 1t or to take any
reasonable action In self defense.
Maybe Muldoon and his gang
may become hostile enough now to
attract Masonic attention; and if
they do it will make things inter-
esting, for two million Masons in
action would more than equal all
the papists in the western hem
isphere.
1t is very true that the awakened
enemies Of popery are uniting to
defend civilization from attacks by
Muldoon and like agents Of the pa
pal system. The sooner Rome
comes out into the open, the sooner
it will be fought out and finished.
Therefore we welcome this adj
vance Of the pope's federation
which Muldoon promises if only it
quits pussyfooting and making its
advances with the stealth Of
Jesuits and Verein envelope poach-
ers. 1t may be a vain hope; but
it also may be that if the bishops
and archhishops declare their hos
tility a few million times more and
prove it as they did in preventing
Masonic overseas war relief work,
more Of the craft will take notice
and conduct themselves according

vate hospitals, schools, conyents,
asylums, and similar institutions.
These laws would be needed and
would be necessary for human
safety even if this country were
free from papal gweatshops and
Rome's religious penitentiaries.
Without such'laws there is nothing
to prevent railroading Of helpless
persons into private insane ssy-
luIns and the like by relatives or
Others who may thereby acquire
the victims property.
But Rome is, Of course, the hard
est hit because it has gone more
fully into that sort Of business
than any other corporation. Amer
leans have been easily humbugged
with religious pretense, and that
has made it possible for priest
craft to run its alleged asyiums
and II. 0. G.. S. laundrfes with un-
paid labor derived from Roman
lied municipal courts and like
sources.
Of course the priests are very
much peeved at the enactment Of
such laws; but their need Is no
where so emphasized as by what
escaped victims and ex-nuns tell
Of peonage and slavery inside Of
those barred and walled-in insti-
tutions.
1t is to be hoped that every state
in the union viii soon take like
steps to guarantee the safety Of its
citizens; and, if all were well in
those places, Rene would be as
willing as others to have such laws
passed. Inspection hurts no busi-
ness that is properly and legally
conducted; and laws prohibiting
slavery injure none but the person
or corporation that is in the slave
business. Let the good work go
on

suggestion Of Archbiship Ceretti

vatican at the jubilee Of Cardinal
Gibbons several months ago. al

by Cardinal Gibbons.
So the whole thing was papal in
its inception as well as aristocrati0

WILSON A LUCKY MAN

Paris, February 12.-The Paris news papers today, in their discussion of the nations question make frequent reference to President Wilson.
 -Mr. Wilson is decidely lucky man." writes Arthur Meyer, editor of the Gau- Alois. He had in his brain of phloso- pher and apostle conceived a certain plan. It was in 1915. He was of the opin- ion that the war, into which his con science had not yet drawn him, would produce no complete victor and no wholly vanquished. In consequence of this he had built up whole series Of propositions which he now dislikes to abandon.
 "But there has been vanquished and there have been victors among whom is the United States. Germany had to ask for an armistice. It is regrettabe for the priori conceptions of MT. Wilson, but 1t i1 very fortunate for us. Had there been no victor or no vanquished. the so- 1ution of the actual difficulties would have been much easier. Nothing would have prevented the formation of the league of nations of which MT. Wilson dreams as all the belligerents could have been included.
 But if MT. Wilson persists in his original plan. of which no thinking be- ing can deny the generosity. we desire that he should remember the necessity of certain guarantees which were not ex- cluded from his original plan. and we
