SOME SCHOOLS

(The Missouri Valley independently
Tammany Hall, New York city, has
at last gobbled the public schools Of
that city, and the people are having
a time. Tammany has selected and
elected the board of education, and
the board being three-fourths Roman,
has been busy cleaning house" for
about year. Many faithful and
competent superintendent, male and
female, are being reduced in rank or
dismissed, and Catholics, many of
whom have had no experience, save
in the lower grades, raised to super
intendents, from salaries of 500 or
SIPS to $3.50, sits, 5000 per month.
Only last week two young women,
teaching only a few years, just out
of Catholic schools, were made super
intendents.
A meeting of the teachers was
called to discuss the situation and
about one-third of the staff, all Pro-
testants, were present, not Roman
ite. They discussed and "cussed''
conditions. and finally got up set of
resolutions of protest to present to
the board, and copy to be sent to
the governor, the mayor and others.
Of course, it will be pigeonholed.
1t is said that rs per cent of the
teachers are Catholics, while only
about rs per cent of the pupils are
Catholic in that city. Slowly all good
places held by Protestants are being
filled by Romans.
The teachers said that at present
rate in ten years there will not be a
Protestant teacher or superintendent
in the public schools of that city.
And yet Rome is tolerant, not bigot-
ted, nor selfish, and above all things
is not in politics. Chicago is going
the same way, but hardly so rapidly
as in New York city.
Another thing, in some of the
schools nuns and sisters are teachers,
and they wear the abominable cloth
ing, and use very largely Catholic
text books.
More. In New York and Chicago
thousands upon top of thousands of
dollars of the school fund money is
paid to parochial and other Roman
schools end colleges.
How would you, people of our glor-
ious middle West, like to live in
either of those cities, and have chill
dren to educate? We have very lit
tie of such doings out here in Gods
country. Here, in a large measure,
the American people, 100 per cent
ers, are coming into their own.

big HOLLOW" NOW
HOLLOW

Peoria, Ill.-Peoria Khan caused
the "Big Hollow Inn" to be raided
last Friday. "Big Hollow" is located
on the Knoxville state road about 10
miles out of the city of Peoria. 1t
has long been understood that the
Inn was running unlawfully but it
seemed hard to find just whom to ar
rest. The name of the bartender was
finally ascertained and, as sufficient
evidence had been secured by the
Klan to warrant the raid, the federal
officers went in Monday and found
three barrels of beer, and a quantity
of wine and whiskey.
Many a parched throat must now
wait until it's owner climbs the hill
and travels to where the Khan has
not yet penetrated, or quenches his
thirst with the God-given drink of
adams Ale"
Samples were previously secured
and tests will be made of these, as
well as of the property secured, to
hold in evidence for the court.
Defendants in liquor cases are now
trying in every way possible to twist
the law to clear themselves. The
latest is that federal officers are not
in their province when issuing search
warrants. This issue is now before
the federal Judge for decision and
Peoria is anxiously awaiting his ver-
dict.

PRO-JEWISH PROPAGANDA
(From Dearborn independently

felt it was safest of all to editorial
ize upon the point that the Jews are
becoming farmers. The editorials
doubtless are reflection of the
thought that it would be good
thing for multitudes of Jews to do
also a reflection of good will toward
them in doing it. But the fact is not
as stated; every effort to turn the
Jew to the soil has failed, or where
farming communities have been es-
tablished they have been kept alive
only by a large expenditure of money
and a constant supply of Jews who
leave the land as soon as their pow
erty permits. It is further alarming
to see how whole agricultural dis
tricts are falling into the hands of
Jewish commission men who are be-
coming the go-betweens for farmer
and citizen. This is a condition
which has led to trouble in every
country, and should be avoided here.
However, it is not to discuss such
problems that these lines are writ
ten. It is only to call attention to
the charging wedge of pro-Jewish
propaganda of an entirely question
able type which is steadily being
inserted into American newspapers.
Editors should change the system
which makes them mere hoppers into
which all sorts of "copy" can be
thrust. That system only makes
them accessories to the wholesale de-
fusion of the American reader.

The Observatory Romano says that
the vatican still is looking for a salts
factory solution of the Roman ques-
ton.
Chides Italian Press
The Journal concludes by saying
that it is unkind, to say the least, on
the part of the newspapers to assert
that the encyclic letter used by Pope
Benedict XIV three years ago, called
"Pasem Del Munus," which was made
the visit of Catholic rulers possible
to Rome, was an act of remuneration
on the part of the vatican Of its
rights.
Nearly all the Italian newspapers
this evening print long editorials ex-
pressing surprise and disappointment
at such unexpected attitude taken by
the vatican, for it is regarded as clear
that the Observatory Romano,s state
ments are inspired and supported by
the vatican chancery.
The question arises here, that
should the pope regain territorial SOW
ereignty over his states what would
be the status of the papal subjects
over the world?
Would they hold their allegiance in
Rome, or can citizen divide his low
atty between two countries?
In the case of the condemned Bish-
ops in Russia, the pope asked for
their release on the grounds that thew
were subjects Of the vatican. What

Jects should he regain monarehial
control in the "Papal States? 2"

It is frankly amusing to observe
the seepage of pro-Jewish propa-
ganda through the daily press. Not
only do the Jews insist that the
newspapers print the most brazen in
accuracies as news, but they also in
sist that the editors appear to swal-
low it by writing editorials about it.
Thus there has come whole crop
of editorials recently along three
lines-frst, that the Jews did not
kill the Car; second, that the Jew
ish military record 'eclipsed all
others; third, that the Jews are great
farmers.
AS to the first, every government
now has proof not only that the Car
and bis family were killed upon ex-
press orders of the Jews but that the
actual deed was wrought upon the
man, his invalid son, his wife and
daughters by a Jew. AS to the Sec
ond, we ere still waiting patiently
for the record which the American
Jewish committee so long ago prom
Used. As to the third, it is true that
farmers" like the notorious Samuel
Untermeyer and others of his ilk
have very large estates. You can see
them for miles along the lordly Hud-
son; you can see them in the aris-
tocratic environs of any rich Jewish
center-great estates, hundreds of
acres each, farmed by Christian
"help."

the five papal states that disappeared
from the map in 1870, are still under
