It's the Dog Thafs Hit That Yelps An Organized Organization to Control, Steer and Defeat the Ob jeds of Other Organizations. An Organization to Officer Other Organizations and Fill Them With Jesuit Tools and Spies-A Systematized S00 000 OOO WORTH of ffl, fel CHURCH RUV.ESTmTAEN hej ff4 'itt $(f A "When Mexico obtained her liberty from Spain, the Church was richer than the State, end the Church, ruled the State. Pope Alexander in a bulletin dated March 17, 1501, "vested in the Crown of Spain, its successors arid assigns, all the ecciessiastical authority and property: in America North, Central and South and in all tfca colonies of Spain.

This property in Churches, buildings, land, was vested in fee simple in the Crown; the Churcfl. and State.wfre united and the Church had the free use and ocupancy, and the church held no title she could convey. one or obtained her indenendftTtw, that-prfdy conveyed Toy the' to the new government ly' but the" church claimed it, and the government was too poor and weak to coo test or extinguish that false claim. When Benito Juarez stepped from the Chief Justiceship into the Presidency, one of the things he did when he had the government well in hand, was to take possession oE this Crown property and disposscs the Church of her fraudulent title; and at the same time expelled the Jesuits, and religious orders, and put into execution the "Laws of the Reform." It was to restore the church that a Catholic army, composed of CatholiQS of many nations, but nominally under the' French Flag, placed Maximilian in as Emperor of Mexico, Maximilian thanks to Abraham Lincoln's masterly, statesmanship fell, and Juarez was reinstated as President. Since tlicu, the Jesuits and the Church have continually conspired against any government in Mexico that was not to her, and their liking.

They were the most active in the downfall of Diaz, and the men at the back that assassinated Madero, and put Huerta and when. the rebellion against Iluerta began, it raised a banner with a motto against clericalism, and, as Villa has sadd, the success of the rebellion will mean the expulsion of the Jesuits and the restraint of the Church, and there will be no peace in Mexico until the Church is curbed, and "hog tied." The Church is on the side of the feudal landlordism of Mexico, and when one goes the other rill ollow. As the Cartoon shows, what Mexico once did, she must and will do again. The only thing liable to prevent this will be the attitude of the United States on that question, and with the Roman Catholic Jesuit political machine in control of our Government, as it is, The Crusader asks its readers to watch and note what our Government will do. If you do not wish our Government to aid the Jesuit plans, and the Stars and Stripes to be used by the Jesuit Hierarchy, to again enslave the Mexicans, we must drive the Roman Catholic Political Machine out of cur gov- ernment.

A new American pary only, can do it. RVi Sam JonM of Georgia, said, "Throw stone into a t'uich. of hogSy and on that 's hit la tho one to squeal. The Christian BoUdarist for May, published in Springfield, Illinois, is a Ga-tiolia paper, and has on page four the following bunch- of lies and abuse 'EPRTSSTTNG' A PAYING BUSINESS. "On pajje 634 of tha April issue of the International Socialini Review there is an advert: Jement of The Cetjsa-ms the antirC-ihoIic paper in.

America, 'FATHER JONES, Editor. "This hothead choet is being published in Iola, Kansas. 7e wrote to the pastor of St. John's Catholio church in Iola. Kansas, and received the following letter which speaks for itself ''ST.

JOHN'S CHURCH "Iola, Kansas, 4-14-14. Solidarist Publishing "Springfield, 111. "Kev. and Dear Sir-. In rep'y to your.request for information regarding the editor of 'The ma say that if tb.8 International Socialist Review states, that the editor vf 'The Cruwdcr' is a Catholio Father Jones, as he' styles himself, the doevdist Revim is lyirr4 Th tills 'rathe which the editor "of Crusader has assumed, is a cunn.bg trick of a disordered brain.

'Father Jones' is John J. Coleman, an ex-Methocl-ist minister, which he publicly proclaimed himself to be in one of his wild harrengues heie last summer. He wag sciha years ago an inmate of the Old Soldiers' Home at Dayton, Ohio, and while there confined to an insane ward, hence he one of the same diabolical breed of Catholio haters afa.4, slanderers as the editor of the Satanic sheet, the Menace. Have been delayed longer than I had expected in getting this report; otherwise would have replied to your letier earlier." Sincerely yours, A. Is it noi great? A crazy man editing an anti-Catholia sheet, calls himself an "EX-PRIEST" "FATHER AND MAKES MONEY.

There are many fools da America, and they are even willing to PAY for that privilege We have advertised Ttte Crusader in New York Chicago, St. Louis and other papers. Our ad in a paper or magazine, neither commits us to the opinions of the publication, nor commits them to pur opinions. The priest here in Iola says I "publicly proclaimed I was an ex-Methodist, minister. Now "if I "publicly proclaimed" I was ''an ex-Methodist minister," how does he in the same letter say I am posing as an ex-priest? Lie No.

1. The holy prevaricator should! have thought out his lie and then stuck to it and not thus admitted it was a lie. Then, too, the International Review made no commemt whatsoever on flie advertisement, as I hnow-'ihsy do approve of our agitation. But please note the usual Jesuit trick. The howly daddy don't 6ay the Review did say so, but "if it said so, an admission that ii didn't say, soy and the confession to lie No.

2. The statement that is made positive, is that I was con fined to an insane ward. Now that is the easiest thing in the world to disprove, end to show is a lie out of the wholo cloth and utterly without any foundation in fact The authorities at the Central Bvaneh of the National Soldiers' Home, near Dayton, Ohio, have no record cf any such thing, but on the contrary that my record is clear in every way. Now, Rev. Daddy McGuir seems to be better than the average of the howly dads, for he's an awfully poor Probably he didn't average hin-h in his class on lying, or if he did, he's awfully out of practice.

Therefore all tho Solidarist comment about an tx-priest, and crazy nan, is all a figment of the lying imagination of the holy father who runs the Solidary. Our advice to Daddy. McGuir is, to get a little more practice at lying before he pulls off the next gtsuit. But they are mad because I use the tit 3 "Father." Well, I've sons and daughters whom I'm legally able to call so. Can the holy fathers say as much I No doubt they have them, but they dont go by their names, Mine do and they've a legal right to.

Have theiiai In Mexico, for instance, there's an ewlesiastical aristocracy who are proud they are the sons and daughters" pjf priest, and one I met in Tacubaya was a dbubleJieaded hqiy aristocrat, as he claimed a priest as his father and a nun as his mother, but according to Maria Mank these doable-headers are baptised by the priest to save their souls end then smothered to death by the nuns. Thar title father was given me playfully by a printer who bo printed my name to an article, and I adopted it as a nom hune, and havo since retard it, and am glad it "gets the goat" of hoW fathers wiS think bo one but themselves have a right Since writing the above, we have received from the International Review a letter saying that no mention was mad of Father Jones being an ex-priest, and from the National Military Home, Ohio, the following endorsement to our inruiry Hospital, Central Branch, May 12r 1914. "To the Governor; no record of George D. Coh -c: Ctmpavj 21Uh Pennsylvania Infantry, ever having been in the I It is one of the amis "of the Roman Catholic machine, and its principal aim and end is to have all the officers of the trade unions Militia of Christ men, and hen the Roman Catholic machine can control the labor unions, and handle them so they will be bamboozled into voting with the same thing the Roman Catholic machine supports and votes for. It's nothing more nor less than a system to use the labor Unions to serve their purposes.

It's only one of the many of their schemes, and it has done more to defeat the objeets of. labor unionism than any other single It has always been in cahoots with the big business combinations, and it is in fact an enemy, and a secret enemy that has put its men: into offices in the unions. The McNamaras who were the heads of organization of the structural iron workers, were of this organisation. That itm-y Vc-saea-' uhdorstoqa, hat this is ho bare assumption, we herewith quote from the Official Bulletin of the American Federation cf Catholic Societies. A new set of officers were installed in November, 1911, and this is the statement that was printed in the Official Bulletin: President Peter J.

McArdle, Pittsburg, President 'Amalgamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers. Vice-President John S. Whalen, Rochester, N. ex-. Secretary, State of New York.

Second Vice-President Pater W. Collins, Sprinfleld, 111., Secretary International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. Recording Secretary Thomas J. Duffy, East Liverpool, President National Brotherhood of Operative Potters. Executive Secretary- Father Peters E.

Dietz, Overlin, 0. The bureau is located at Oberlin, Ohio, to which all com-pmnications are to be' directed. DIRECTORATE. John Mitchell, New York City, chairman Trades-Agreement Department, National Civic Federat.on. James O'Connell, Washington, D.

President Association of Machinists. Dennis A. Hayes, Philadelphia, President International 'Association of Plumbers and Steamfitters. David A. Carey, Toronto, Canada, Chairman Separate School Board.

Rhody Kenchan, Denver, Treasurer, State of Colorado. Michael J. Hallinan, Brockton, Boot and Shoe Workers. James Creamer, Richmond, Vice-President Virginia Etate Federation of Labor. John Moffit, Newark, N.

President International Association of Hatters of North America. T. V. O'Connor, Buffalo, N. International President of the Longshoremen.

John Golden, Fall River, International Secretary of Textile Workers. Frank Duffy, Indianapolis, International Secretary of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters. On November 21st the newly elected officers met with his Grace Archbishop Glennon at the archepiscopal residence and in counsel with His Grace a definite program was adopted, after which the new officers knelt at the feeit of His Grace to receive his blessing. This was published in the Menace of January 18, 19J2, Number 39. These, remember, are only the officers of the Militia of Christ, and no mention of the members who are officers in the trade uAions are mentioned, but if there was, at thqt time, a trade union whose officers were not in the majority, or all but nine-tenths, of this toe-kissink crow, Father Jones would like to be informed who they were.

Peter Collins, the secretary of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, is the man who is today Math-, er-skiting over the country calling all patriots liars and "brainless patriots" and like a talking machine, saying what the Howly Fathers command whsn they turn the John Mitchell, well what's the use of saying anything about John, he's pretty well known now, and when they, the Roman Catholic machine, tried to give him the "lame duck job" of commissioner of labor for New York state, it was even too raw for the Tammany crowd, and John didn't get it. James O'Connell, who as president of th International 'Association of Machinists, acted so raw that the Brotherhood of Machinists was formed and split off to the association, and O'Connell was picked out by his own crowd that remained in the association. James Creamer managed to get into the vice-presidency 1 Mie Virginia State Federation of Labor, and of course was "a partisan of Sam Gompers, and Gomperism. John Golden, international secretary of Textile "Workers, i was forced to show his true colors, (papal,) at the time of the Lawrence, strike. But the trade unions are rebelling against the MiKtia cr Christ rule, and one by one they are being kicked out el office, and like Lynch," of the Typographical Union, are paid for their treachery and hypocrisy by the old political parties, being given "lame duck jobs," part of the time in one state by one party, and in ether states by the other party, and as Romanists they're the favorite for Joe Tumulty to nominate, and Woodcnheaded Wilson nods his head to anything that Joe says, just as he did to the cracker that.

was held up as Godson Thanksgiving day at the "official mass" in Washington, P. C. The Militia of Christ men, are many, if not most of them, Knights of Columbus, and of that organization, and its troublesome barbarous, and inhuman oath, and -its practice of the oath in the mobbing of churches, the beating up of speakers, and general riot and murder practices the country has had and is having the demonstration of their desire to fulfill their obligation. Are such men as leaders and officers of trade unions to lead the laboring men and craftmen of the country liable to benefit labor! Is it any wonder that only when they throw them out, do they meet any degree of success? 'anti-saloon man disappeared lately and his body, bearing the evidence of his being murdered, was found. Whether you are anti-saloon cr a friend of the saloon, is not the question, and in both cases, it was a Roman Catholic political machine murder.

Is this anti-American conspiracy to be allowed to murder nen, and thus terrorize all who would exercise the right of free speech, to be allowed to continue these Knight of Columbus work. Has the time come in America when men cannot exercise their right of free speech, without danger to their lives? Let air patriots who exercise their rights, go armed, and let the friends of free speech surround any speakers with a guard with shotguns loaded with good buckshot, and let these Roman thugs, whether disguised with police uniforms or not, be given a warm and bloody reception, and the interference will either stop or these Nites of mob and murder be forced to declare open war. Don't be cowards, fcr it has got to come to this, and the soSner th better. If government of, for, and by the people has got to parish from the earth, because the American people won't defesd it, then let it perish, and history will record that Americans, proved a race of poltroons and cowards, and were unworthy of the inheritance left them by the men of And more. It will be recorded that the American Socialist party proved false to Socialism as found everywhere else.

THE "FRAGRANT, LORIMER." That's the term applied to William Lorimer. They smelled the stench, but they didn't recognize it, for Lorimer said May 6th, 1914, ''I am a Catholic in spite of myself. For more than 15 years I have been studying all the books that I could find on the "I have come to feel at last, that the only thing for me to do is to become a Catholic. I inaire the change in accordance with my honest coavjetions." All along he had the Roiiran Catholic sme'Jh The stink was evident, but neither he nor the public recognized the stench. He wa3 a Roman Catholic all he time, only, he didn't know it.

His father was a Presbylenan minister. Now we smell the same kind of a bad odor on Woodrow Wilson, ex-Presbyterian college president, but the difference letweeu Woody and William is, that Woody hasn't yet made tha change in label He did it on Thanksgiving day, but took the label off until the next time. Perhaps he'll join William ngxtjtxau A man by the name of Hallatt was a Socialist Organizer. He started to work May 1st in Rochester, N. Y.

He has "disappeared." When last seen he was stopped fi-om speaking by a sergeant of police and three policemen, and since then cannot be located at any hospital or elsewhere. Money due him is unclaimed, and his clothing left. Everything points to foul play. Now, why do the Socialists not try to discover if. the 6orgeant and the three policemen were not Romanists? That's why the Roman Catholic machine want Romanists in all the police forces.

It's not at all a question ivhether or not he was a Socialist. He was an American citizen, and he was only attempting to exercise his rights to free Whether you agree c-r disagree with his opinions, is not at all the question An pital. F. W. Rouse, Surgeon." Both of th shor that the Rev.
