By Gilbert O Nations"iu the" Men ace. ' Roman Catholic press, priests and politicians are now busy protesting- their loyality to the g-overment in the present inter national crisis. To paraphrase a famous remark, there seem good reasons to suspect that they protest too much. It would be very interesting- if the public could know how many of those who have been arrested for com plicity in the disastrous explo sions in this country recently are Roman Catholics. Virtually all of those sc arrested have foreign names, and the probabilities are that many of them are more loy al subjects of the pope than of the kaiser. The papal gang in this country will use the present crisis to the utmost in their frantic efforts to hamper and destnyy the present arousal of the people against their political intrigues. To this end, they will declare that labor and capital have for the time being buried the hatchet, that Repulicans and Democrats have joined hands, that social dis tinctions have been obliterated, and that now the only discord ant element among the American people is the element which has so vigorously opposed the perni cious regressions-of Rome in our public affairs. It is believed that very few patriots will be de ceived by this characteristic Jesuitical hypocrisy. The determination ot the pope, the kaiser and the Austrian em peror to subjugate and Roman ize the little and helpless Balk an States forced, this mon strous war upon the human race. More than fifty per cent of the total population of the German powers and their allies are Ro man Catholic, and a large part of the remainder are Mohammed ans and infidels. When encour aging that aggregation to war against the Protestant nations of the world, the papacy un derestimated the growing power of Democracies to defend Hu man Laberty. Having embroiled the world in this awful cataclysm, the pa pal machine is actively charging Protestants with responsibility f or the stupendous conflict. The Roman, Catholic Volks Zeitung of Berlin has recently declared that Freemasonry has brought on the war. In this connection the Berlin mouthpiece of the pa pacy alleges that President Wil son, Mr. Bryan and Colonel Roosevelt are Masons and pri marily responsible for the war and "particularly for American participation in it. The papal hierarchy in this countrv is now lying awake at night to devise plans whereby the knights of Columbusvnay obtain commisions and official 'po A-er in the Ameri 'catiarmy. The daily press has mentioned inconspicuously of late that Car dinal Farely of New York city refused to sign the declaration of loyality which is. being circu lated and presented in New York by the mayor's committee on na tional defense. The flome-serv-mg" press makes the insincere ex cuse that the cardinal '.refused to sign the document for fear of infla ming the people and exciting the war spirit. But Che true, reason ior his refusal to sign is thatthe Church Council of Clermont in the--year 1095. :by direction of, Pope Utban II enacted a law for bidding1 anv ecclesiastic to take'; an oath of fealty to anvlaysove reign or any . civil oy;ernxent':' Every cardinal, bishop and priest of Rome throughout '.'the' 'worlfl is bound absolutely by that la.w Cardinal Farley's action arirt the palpable absurdity of the ex ... cuse advanced by the pro-papal press created a -'distinctly un, favorable impress!on. in the pub -"-lie mind. So we find that ' on Saturday night. April 14th the cardinal gave OAit a lettefV-to' be read; at the mass on the following mbrninr enioininsr .'.loalty to the flag. In the meaniimi;1 pop ular Romau Catholic journals", especially the Celtic Catholic pa pers, are faithfully reflecting the bitter sneer of the popes own or gan, the Osseryatore Romano, which we published last week. Thus we ' find- the well known Roman Catholic paper, the Galic American, the journal of the Clan-na-Gael of. New York say ing editorially; The war which the: highly financed British propaganda has been fomenting for twenty years and for which it has worked oyer time since 1914, is at last upon us it is the greatest victory that England has ever won ' arid the most humilating. fact in American history. The Ameri can people do not want war, but congress has been' browbeaten futo submission by an autocratic president, backed bv a press subsidized. by a foreign gover raent and controlled by the mon ey power which is making enor muus fortunes out of - the human blood. The statements made in the corrupt press and repeated and reiterated every day that the American people favor war are lies made out or whole cloth. Every one who mixes arfiong the people know that. . The ' mani festations in favor of war have been organized and paid for by the tnoney power and did not represent the people The meet ings in opposition to war were teu times more numerous and rep resented a majority of the Ameri' can people. But President Wil son wanted war to save England and he has got it. It is Woodrow Wilson's war. . Reman cardinals and bishops ajre seeking to deceive the people bjy stating in their official news--pjapers that many Roman Cath olics, including priests are now fighting on the battlefields and in the. trenches of Protestant nations in ; Europe. Protestant nations are. the only ones. rin which priests do serve in the army. The pope makes treaties with Roman Catholic nations ex- pressly exempting the priests from military, service; but the protestant nations are fighting for, their existence and for .humanity have- ' conscripted air available men for service at the front. In this universal consciptiohs, a few priests have probably been caught and forced into the tren ches. Forced to choose between the trenches and a court martial for treason, the average, -priestsi would probably choose the ches. tren- Woman Tells Ho $5 Worth of Pinkham's Compound ,. - Made Her Weltr Lima, Ohio.
