bshed in t' .- montVey month by i
Charie, C. Marshall. Nev York Jaw-'
yer an i 1oh t opalian, who asked him;
a number .of que.niom seeking to dc-:
fine his views on the relation of the;
Catholic, church to the state. Mr.
Marshall ha> been described as an;
authority of ear.on law.
The governor's interpretation of !
Mr. Marshall's q lies1 ions is described !
in his letter, as follow:-:
"Taking your letter as a whole
and reducing it to commonplace English
you imply that there is conflict
between religious loyally to the Catholic
faith and patriotic loyalty to the
United States."
The governor declared that "everything
that has happened to me during j
my long public career leads file to (
Know trial no such as that is true.'"'
Governor Smith summed up his;
creed as "an Amr-ncan Catholic" as j
follows: :
. "1 believe in the worship ??f God ?
aetordiny: to the faith and practice of;
the Roman Catholic church. I recognize
no power in the institution of
my church to interfere with the opfcr?!
alums of the con; lit'otion of the Cni-j
ted States or the enfurcenlent of (Jjo-.j
law of the land.
"I ix Lteye in ubsetnl<- fi. edom of;

of ail, churches, all sects :anij. nil hc-l
IScfs before the law as a matter of j
riirhl and not as a matter o? favor. j
"I believe' in the absolute s para-j
turn of church and state and in the j
strict enforcement of the provisions ]
of the constitution: that congress-'. |
shall make no law respecting an es-;|
taldishifuMit oi* religion or prohibitingj
the free exorcise thereof.
**i believe that no tribunal of any j
church has nry power u> make any j
decree of any fcjivc in the law of the
land, ether than to establish the
statu- of its own communicants withhi
its own church.

iieV'fi in the ritrhr. of every parent to I
choose whether his child shall be educated
in the public sehooi or in a religious
school supported by those of

"I believe in the principle of non-.j
interference by this country in the !
internal affairs of other nations and
that we should stand steadfastly 1

"In this spirit I join with fellow .
Amevicahs of all creeds in a fervent I
prayer that never again in this land-]
iyi'd any public servant in* challenged i
uecause ,cf the laith in which he has!
tried to walk humbly with his God."}
. . U ndei- our system of gov- !'rnmeiit,"
the governor wro.e, "'the j
siectprale entrusts to its officers of j
every faith the solemn duty of action'
iCcording to the dictates of his own j
i - .. i
joiixcieiive. i ?iu\ jumij ivi.w iu i?*%v j
?w v. record to support those truths. '
No man, cleric cr lay, has ever di- j
recti y* or indirectly attempted to exercise
church influence of my ad-j
ministration of any office I have ever j
held, nor asked rne to show special j
favor to Catholics or exerche dis-j
crimination against non-Catholics.
"It is a well known fact that I
have made all of my appointments to
public office on the basis of merit
and have never asked any man about
his religious belief. In the first
month of this year there gathered in
the capi'.ol at Albany the first governor's
cabinet that ever set in this
state. It was composed, under my
appointment, of two Catholics, thirteen
Protestants and one Jew1.

of the government is he

years in subordinate capacities, until

A CORRECTION
In an article last w^ek relative to
the Bain! episode- at Vaile Cruris
or. Tuesday a week ago, The T>emo
crm made a lamentable error vn
saving that Clapde Baird war one oi
the boys mixed up in the affair thai
was much deplored by the people at
largo because of the prominence of
the family. In writing the account,
as wc gathered it, we got Claude
Baird instead of Clay Baird as opv
of the offeilScrs. The correction i"
gladly made as Claude Baird says h*
was not in the county cn the day the
trouble occurred.
