Show A "GATLING-GUN'S" VOLLEY "'The Gatling Gun." a non-Catholic magazine of Chicago (Xov. issue, p. 12). has fired the following "sheH" into the camp of the Jesuit-hating bigots: '"The Jesuits have chosen a General, who is known as the 'Clack Pope,' and the election has given an opportunity to every hide-bound Protestant Protest-ant literary yawpor to say something funny, as welt as filthy, of the -Society'" of 'Jesus: An ' editorial writer in the Congregationalist and Christian World has spread himself cn record as the most select speeinum of the pimple-headed intolerant that ever railed at a fellow-Christian. Lack of space, as well as thorough disgust of perverteel Christianity, Christian-ity, prevent me freun reproducing some of the statements state-ments e'oi! ruing- Loyola's Order, made by the clerical cler-ical A. P. Ape in the Congregationalist. I cannot, however, refrain from slipping in the following. The paragraph closes with this diatribe: "'Yet it is mem of this type that Great Rritain and the United States permit to go on founding memasteries and schools without the slightest interference, in-terference, as if the annals of Europe ami South America had not taught that Jesuitism sooner o:-later o:-later has either blighted every nation it has touched or forccel it, in self-defense.' to expel the body of contagion.' "How's that '. As a speckled, spangled and spotteel liar. I gue-ss this 'ecclesiastical Ananias paraeles somewhere near the head of the piwession. It is not necessary to say how he lies, for that would entail an argument, and an argument with a hails hai-ls tiresome anel bootless when all the world knows that he lies. "I know the Jesuits fairly well, although I've never attended their Sunday schools as a scholar, nor their seminaries as a matriculate, and I have ever found the-m loyal to their government. I know that in precept and practice they are as high above the average Holy Joe intederant as is the ' oak above the "Jiinson" weed, for they are kindlv. charitable anel clean. I have yet to hear ene of them say a disparaging word of Protestantism, nor have I ever seen any proselyting for Catholicism, where they hold forth. Anel this also I know. T know them to have educated intellects, beside whih the brain of the average intollerant "yawp" woul-1 appear ys a mess of bran-mash. The Jesuit .ha neither side lines nor hobbies on me, and his benediction bene-diction is no more valuable to me than that of am other Godly man." Sincerely yours, K. The real reason why women hate to confess ;.. j their years is that they are ashamed of their lack of wisdom after so much experience. I I J |
