“This is a matter of history—­of undeniable history.  If the American Indians were slain in battle, in nine cases out of ten the Jesuits instigated them to the deeds which brought on the war.  While Prescott’s ‘Mexico’ and ‘Peru’ are accessible in our libraries, popery had better be dumb.

“That the Filipinos have increased from 300,000 to 9,000,000 and the South Americans from 12,000,000 to 50,000,000, may be true, for all travelers tell us that it is no uncommon thing to find a priest with a halfscore of concubines and fifty children.  Certainly these priests have an advantage over Protestant missionaries in this respect.  The pagans would naturally follow the example of their ‘spiritual’ advisers.  Oh, yes, the population certainly increases where the priestcraft live.”

The Roman Catholic church says that the priests shall not wed, but at the same time the priestcraft fathers an army of children.

The Philippine islands is a nation of heathens, and Catholicism has been in charge of these islands for centuries, and to-day they are worse off than they were before Catholicism planted her black banner in their midst.

Wherever you find intellectuality, morality and civilization in its fullest meaning, you will find a country where Protestantism is the predominating doctrine, as Catholicism can not exist only in the “underbrush” of ignorance and vice.

The greatest menace this country has to contend with is the influx of Rome’s followers from other nations, and unless our immigration laws are remedied it will not be long until Rome will be able, by physical strength, to enumerate the United States as one of her countries, as each succeeding year tens of thousands of the followers of Rome from Italy and other priest-ridden countries flock to our shores to practice in this country the abominations taught them in their childhood.

France’s woes and miseries have been expected for years by men of intelligence and men who could read the signs of the times, as Rome’s influence was year by year growing more intolerable, and it was only a matter of time when France would be forced to either permit herself to be dragged down to the level of the debased teachings of Catholicism or else by a heroic effort boldly stamp out this Romish creed of damnation, and the latter course is the one she has chosen to pursue, and to-day finds the Roman Catholic church despised and detested by every intelligent and patriotic Frenchman of the land.

In July 1874, Eugene Lawrence, in the columns of “Harper’s Weekly,” made a prediction that ought to convince every sane man and woman in this land that the woes of France are directly traceable to the Roman Catholic church, as Mr. Lawrence was a historian of national repute, and a man who was a patriot whom the American eagle was proud of, and for the benefit of the readers of my little book I desire to quote in full this prediction made thirty years ago, as to-day finds Mr. Lawrence’s prediction being fulfilled in every particular, and Roman Catholicism is the incarnate fiend that has forced this prediction to come true.  Mr. Lawrence’s article follows:
