her tyrannical despotism, France would not have had
to close up the monasteries and convents of that nation, but on
account of her teachings, and in order to protect the rising
generations from her influence, not only have the convents and
monasteries had to be closed, but the schools which teach her
damnable dogmas have been closed.

We do not have to cross the ocean and visit European countries to
learn of Roman Catholicism's depravity, but we can stand upon the
southern shore of the United States, almost in hailing distance of
Cuba, and there behold the shores of a country which had to rebel
against the hellishness of Roman Catholicism, as Cuba would to-day
belong to Spain had it not been for Roman Catholicism, as it was her
abominations that continually kept Cuba in a feverish ferment.

It was Spain's ungodliness that brought about the Spanish-American
war, and Spain's ungodliness was taught her by Romanism.

The West India islands were the progenies of Spain, and the Spanish
government permitted the Papists to control these islands with her
dogmas of instructions, which were directly instrumental in
continually keeping the spirit of anarchy alive.

The only reason that Roman Catholicism does not control this country
with her tyrannical hand is on account of numerical numbers, for did
Rome believe that she could rule this country to-day, before the sun
would set to-morrow night this would be a nation of serfs instead of
a nation of independent men and women.

I perhaps have made my declarations broader and stronger than any man
of the present day, but I am fresh from the ranks of Catholicism and
I know her cunning, and since I have forsaken her blind leadership
and drank deep from the well of Protestantism, I have resolved that
no stone shall go unturned that will help me to convince America of
her great danger which shadows her future by permitting this Romish
despot to flood this country with not only her blind followers, but
by being permitted to brazenly denounce everything that is near and
dear to this country, as her brazen denunciations of our American
institutions is nothing more nor less than treason, and which should
be treated as such.

To give the reader some idea of what Roman Catholicism will do if she
ever has the power, we quote an article which appeared in a Catholic
journal known as "_The Catholic Citizen_," of Milwaukee, Wis.

Now, if Catholicism has at this time become so brazen that she
