A HENRY 0 LECTURE Major Ryan’s Views on the In- fiuence of Romanism in Government, ADVOCATES EXPELLING JESUITS He Opposes the Use of Public Moneys for the Building Up of Sec- tarian Institutions. The announcement that Major T. C. Ryan of Col ihe Good Ci hip meeting in Metro- politan Hall yesterday afternoon drew a jarge crowd together, completely filling the seats on the lower floor and the gal- lery, with 100 or more persons acting as waliflowers. H. W. Quitzow opened the meeting with the following remarks: en adies and gen Despite the cham- s of the Roman Catho! ferarchy we are | i here to-day in sdvocacy of one of uciples that has ever agitated | try could take the place of argument and liesin vulgar lan: guage that of truth then we mightsay that the | nineteenth century has not attained that stage of civilization whi we claim for it.

[Laughter.] I have never looked at with what was | | mven b: & man out of whose eyes beamed more in- | telligence. He is a man of wonderful‘ power and abilit The speaker took up the encyclical of November 7, 1885, and quoted the follow- | ing, which, he said, appeared in i “Every Catholic should rigidly adhere to the teach- | of the Roman Pontiff, especially in matters of modern liberty, which, under the semblance of honesty of purpose, leads | to destruction.’ | minister? “The man who can indorse that,’” con- | tinued the speaker, “ought never to be allowed to leave his own dooryard with- out a guide.”” The speakerobjected to an- other passage of the eneyclical, as foliows: *‘All Catholics should exert their power to cause the constitution of the State in which they live to be modeled on the principles of the true church.” T can see,” added Major Ryan, “what Satolli meant when he said ‘Go forward | | | with the Bible in one hand and with the | consiltation in the other.’ Great God! What .is the true church? Is she the friend of modern liberty or is she opposed to.modern liberty?"’ The speaker charged also that in another Jetter in February, 1890, it is laid down that Romanists are bound not only to be- lieve what the Pope teaches ex cathedra, but the must also accept and obey whatso- ever the Pope commands. The major continued: We will never have peace 1n this giorious Republic of ours until we do like other nations and expel the Jesuits. [Applause] Italy— poor, down-trodden Itaiy—did it, Spain did it, France did it, Mexico did it, Hungary did it, Bohemia did it, Poland did it, and every coun- try on earth that is worthy of the name of country did it, except America. it in J872 as a remedy for domestic treason, and to-day we would have peace in this land were it mot for the Jesuitism that abounds. This man Satoili was trained by the present Pope in a Jesuit coliege, and a Jesuit in the community is like a boa constrictor lying in wait for the unwary. I tell you we will never have peace in this glorious Republic until we expel the Jesnits. [Continued applause.] There are three countries on the face of the earth that will never be destroyed by Roman- ism. I bave faith to believe that this Repub- lic will endure until Americanisi shall be en- thron in e y heart. ath in star o he northern pert of Ireland, will 7 surrender 1o the Pope of Rome [prolonged applause). and Manitoba will ¢ out from under the shadow of the British Union Jack before she will allow Popery to de- stroy her school system. The spezker weut on to say that when a few years ago Terence V. Powderly pre- sidea over a labor convention the first business transacted was the reading of a letter from Cardinal Gibbons in which the Cardinal informed the organization : That so long as it was under the control of those who are not opposed to the church it shouid ve the sanction of the church and is wanted to authority any ecclesiastical nject itself into a convention of its blessing. When Delegate Le know. Wwas imme y in the midst of & howling mob, and the same snakes that n. infest the country hissed him while he tried to defend liberty, and from that day to this they have hounded William T. Lewis until at times they have driven the man to the brink o! insanity. 1 agree with the Boston divine who prayed God that the word religion should be stricken from the calendar. and that in its stead should be substituted the word “Christianity,” for religions and Gods are many, but there’is only one true God and one true Christianity.

Major Ryan’s Subject, “Romanism and Protestantism—Thelr Frults Compared.” The attendance in the evening had fallen off somewhat. Afterintroductory remarks by C. T. Brewer, secretary of the State A. P. A., Major Ryan was introduced and was received with literally a storm of ap- plause. 5 The major began by speaking of the tree of American liberty planted in Massachu- setts in 1620, He said: I see here in one branch the red hand of anarchy; on another branch the Irish flag, ana on the central branch of the tree I see the These three flags are enough to unto death. In the heart of the ington, the capital of the country, 1see the Papal Ablezate. The city,ithe county, the State ansg the National governments are reeking with the bloed of rum, Romanism and rottenness. After the applanse which greeted this remark had subsided Secretary Brewer came to the front and said: Major Ryan is evidently not well acquainted here, or be would have known that the peopic beat them all for patriotism. . 1. floats our flag from their their churches are being tree you reter to sir, the Y.

Rev. Mr. Case further reviewed the re- sults of the controversy and then turned to bis sermon to young men, entitled, “Wrecked While Crossing the Bar.” S DR. YORK’S LECTURE. The Noted Liberalist Argues for Entire Secular Freedom of Thought and Belief, Dr. J. L. York spoke before a large audi- ence at Scottish Hall last evening, his sub- ject being “Fair Play.” He spoke of the ‘'great religious conspiracy’’ and against the proposed amendment to the Federal He also contrasted “‘Chris- tian A. P. A.-ism” with “Liberal A. P. A.- ism.” He spoke substantially as follows: We have fallen on peculiar times and are in the midst of & great religious conflict and con- spiracy. And not only is Romanism the enemy of free thought, free ‘speech, free schools and | parental freedom, but there is also a wide | Protestant religious conspiracy, increasing each year in volume, against the common lib- erties of the people guaranteed by the consti- tution of our country in the attempts to enact and enforce Sundey lawsand other religious legislation under the plea that thisisa Chris- tian country. This Protestant Christian cru- sade to make this a Christian country may be seen in the attitude of the National Reiorm Association and at least a dozen other Protest- ant societies orgenized for the special purpose of amending the constitution of the United States in the following terms: “\e, the pegple of the United States, humbly acknowledg! Almighty God as the source of all authority in civil government, the Lord Jesus Clrist as the ruler among the nations, the Bible his revealed will &s the supreme law of the land, in order to constitute a Christian overnment,” and in the interestof justice and ir play toward the Catholic faith, as well as in the interest of truth, we progose to show that the Protestant Christian church, some of whose members and preachers haye been co bitter and extreice iu their attack on the mother church, d to divide their attention and have oue eye on the Protestant church in their idiotic moverient and attemp(iat suicide. This proposed Christian amendment to our constitution, as published in the Christian Statesman, would eliminste all democracy from our Government and disfranchise all un- believers and infidels in this country. The spirit of this holy reform association you may catch from their published statement, as foi- | and sre’ drawing nearer to Rome eve | tha Ira D. Sankey, the singing evangel Dwight L.

Romanism hasnever offered to deprive the people of a littie harmless sport on Sunday, and it was this association of pinch- beck Protestant Christians that by unjust methods indnced Congress to violate the con- stitution in the passage of a_law closing the World's Fair at Chicego on Sunday, the only day the poor man and his family conld attend, and are now trying to acgregate political power at Washington to pass a National 8 day law of the most puritanical charact. and stamps this Protestant Christian associa- tion as a fit companion for the Spanish inqui tion, and we are quite sure that American Catholics have done no worse than this ageinst the liberty of the people. To wy mind there is not) that all of the Christian sects are being drawn into a religious co acy against free thonght, free speech and <ecular government, vear. And in this City, where political anti-Roman- ism has made sich » stir with the A. P. A. dur- ing the past two vears, only a tow of the Prot- estant clergy are in any large degree in sym- pathy with the A. P. A.movement. Why is it that~ Protestant preschers protest so feebly against Rome? Simply because blood is thicker water. She is their mother and her blogd runs through every Christian sect which, at the best, iz on! ted Roma And the time is near at heand when the F will cease to old mother, and when ev sect that Lears the name of an will jo inan alliance to defend their common cres against the skepticism of this age of science, reason and com:ion-sense, which is b ing up the paganism of Christian theclogy, retir- ing the priest and bringing the schoolmaster to tha front more and more &s the years go on. We are glad that the fundamental law of our land does not recognize the Brahmin, Bud- dhist, Egyptian, Hebrew, Mohammedan, Chrix- t ng more clear than ien or any other gods or religions. ‘We are glad to kn 1, in & religious sense, this 1s not a Christian Nation, nor in any sense is our Government bas % the C And in_proof o statement of George Washington in his first treaty with Tripoii, that the Government of these United States is not built npon the Chri an religion, nor was it so considered by Je! on, Frenkiin and Paine, but it is se nd free, and znows no religlon. save the eter- ples of justice, equality and liberty. stant anthorfty says “that whenever Roman Catholics are willing 1o co-operate the Christian sects to resist political athe- ism and icreligion we will gladly join hands with them in making this a Christian country. And as liberals we are utterly opposed to, and protest against the God in the constiti Sunday law and Bible in the school movement on the partof Protestant Christians, So also we are not in sympathy with the fervent hatred of that sort of A. P. A.-ism known as the J. Q. A. Henry stamp, who in a discourse in this City last vear on the perils of our Republic stated ‘that the greatest peril to the life of this Republic was secular free thought, liberalism and a disbelief in the Christian religion.’ This shows the affinity of superstition, and that blood is_thicker than water. And in one | breath this zealous gospel hater of Rome would exhaust his vocabulery of vituperation against Catholics, and in the next breath de- nounce free thought and liveralism, the on thing that has made possible his ireedom of speech. And at the rame time, while ranting against the reunion of church and state, declared him- self in favor of the Bible in onur iree schools, and signed a petition in favor of Sunday laws to keep liberals from desecrating the Sabbath. Weare not in sympathy with such inconsist- ent, bigoted, shystering, narrow-gauge Chris- tian A. P. Aism as this, but for twenty-five years have stood, as_we stend to-dey, i . The Handsome New Structu:e Tkat Will n favor | of a broadgaug®, consistent American protec- | tion for our free institutions against all eccle- siastical encroach whether Roman or | Protestant, upon the state and schools of our | country. We can’t efford to swap off Roman | popery and open the door for Protes’ant popery. | A Roman Pope is quite as admissible as a Bap- | tist or Presbyterian Pope. But we prefer to | have no Pope, and in the enjoyment of Ameri- | can_citizenship and full_religious liberty let every man and woman be kings and priests | unto God. | " And the attitude of liberals on the subject of God in the constitution of the United States, Sunday luws and_the Bible and religious usage in the free schools has been for many yearsa standing protest, and at almost every session of Congress the liberals of America have sent in their petition of protest against the passuge of the bill of religious amendment to our or- ganic law,and the unanimity of sentiment | among liberals in this City on this subject was obvious on last Sunday night in our audience in securing 400 signatures to defeat the re- ligious bill before the present Congress. This Protesiant movement to infuse religion into the state rests upon the claim that this is a Christian country, and they argue that our Federal constitution is a godless document and must be amended. They claim that this | 1s a Christian Nation simply because we have chaplains in army, navy, Congress, Legisla- tures, hospitals and prisons; the exemption of church property from taxation; the Bible and worship in our schools; the appointment of fast und feast days by the ofiicial authority of the state; the name of God ou our coin. And Protestant Christians claim that these 7 naed Christian usages make thisa country. And that our constitution ective and must be as it gives liverty to all religions and treats all elike, but indorses no religion. And when such brainy men in this Protestant movement as R Nr. Edwards, Rev. Mr. Typg. Re and scores of apble men in the pulpit and lead- ers of the various so-cailed reform associa- tions, speak out, they are entitled to a candid and respectful hearibg. These people are in dead earnest, and their success means the de- struction of our guarantees of freedom and the subversion of American liberty. And we meet them by aflirming that this is not & Christian country; that our Government is not Chris- tian nor anti-Christian, nor Jewish, nor Mo- hammedan, but simply secular, with equal rights to all and special privileges to none; and that these religions customs aud useges now practiced in our State schools and Na- tional Government should cease, and thus couform our usage in every department of our Goverument and schools 1o the constitution of ou untry as it is in letter gnd spiri TheZnine demands of American liberalism formulated about twenty yearssince by Francis Abboit, end which are the basis upon whjch this society, founded in 1892, and all other lib- eral and free thought unions are organized ughout America, England, Australia and the Canadas, are as follows: THE DEMANDS OF LIBERALISM. 1.

The reasons are many | rnd obvious, when we consider how wide | apart are the realmns of church and state, and that the state is simply & realm of force, while | that of the church and religion is purely a | Tealm of persuasion. And the history of re- | lizion in ell the past shows that any religion | that reaches beyond fts natural limit and is E :);;:kcd by civil power becomes a cruel despot- | dem. 5705 =3 % v o3 2 Socn Fe Built on the Present Site of St Paui’s Church, California Strcet, Near Steiner.

The Great French Violinist Received With Tumultuous Applause by His First Local Audience. Long before the celebrated Paderewski struck his first note on the piano at the Baldwin Theater last night the vocal | music at the box office had begun. No | seats could be bought, not even standing room was to be obtained, and hundreds of disappointed people felt very much inclined to discuss the matter with the ticket agents, the doorkeepers, the police and each otler. The men and women who could not get into the theater, though they offered pre- miums and supplications, would have formed a fair-sized audience on an ordi- nary oceasion. Even before the audience was seated only the central aisle could be kept open. Then that became jammed and for several minutes there was good-natured confusion among the people trying to get to their seats. ‘““Go through the center,” suggested an usher to a stout man when both seemed helplessly stalled. But a Berkeley foot- ball eleven could not have gone through | the center at that time. It was one of the biggest audiences ever known at the Baldwin and a large propor- tion of those present were people of musi- cal knowledge and critical tastes. Marsick made a decidedly strong im- vression on his hearcrs. He was enthu- siastically applauded at every number. A man of excellent appearance on the music platform, he wears his hair in a way that gives a suggestion of the Paderewski glory. This violinist is to give a recital at the California Theater next Friday evening, and on Sunday evening he and his orches- tra will give a concert at the Baldwin. On Saturday night he will appear at the Mac- donough Theater, Oakland, and on Tues- day might, March 10, at the Auditorium Theater, San Jose. At the Paderewski-Marsick concert last night Frederick Warde, the tragedian, was in one of the boxes, accompanied by his son and two other members of hiscom- pany. Other parties in the boxes were: Samuel M. Shortridge, D. M. Delmas and Colonel Trumbo and Alfred Bouvier, Mrs. Bouvier, Mrs. Hagan and Mr. and Mrs. G. C. Van Ness. Among the other well-known people in the immense audience were P. N. Lilien- | thal, Miss Lilienthal, Mr. and Mrs, L. Steinbart, Mr. and Mrs. P. McG.

How the French Pianist Played and the Reception He Recelved. The local patrons of art have heard within the precincts of their own City the following virtuosi of more or less renown on bothoontinents: Violinists Wieniawski, Wilhelmj Sarasate, Sauret, Yasye, includ- ing the lesser lights Ole Bull, Remenji, Litchenburg, Paul' Jullien, Camilla Urso, Ovide Musin; and Pianists d’Albert, Pach- mann, Jessefiy, Ketten, Adele Aus der Ohe, Gottschalk, Madame Esgipoff, Mrs. Arabella Goddard, and other artists, and all have met with their share of substan- tial success here.

Its initial interpretation in this town by these artists was anxiously and appreciatively sistened to by local professional and | amateur musicians and generously ap- plauded throughout. The sonata as a whole can best be com- pared as belonging to the school interven- | ing from Beethoven to Mendelssohn, ghei “allegro con fantasio” being both weird | and reminiscent. The intermezzo was | very dainty, especially the run.in thirds, which Paderewski did in his inimitable | way. The finale is on the order of the Kruetzer sonata, but more on the Egypt- ian style. 3 3 In the concerto in D minor, by Vieux- temps, Marsick’s intonation was not as perfect in the adagio movement nor was the | expressiro quite up to the standard. The finale showed a good technique of the French school, but a weak tone. As an encore Marsick played the adagio pathetique by Goddard, wherein he also showed a lack of virility. Marsick was heard to best advantage in the Polonaise by Laub, to which as an encore a Wieniawski mazurka was given. He rendered an adagio of his own com- position to which he gzave a scholarly in- terpretation, and which bids fair to be- come a very popular morceau. Ia the well-known piece, “Airs Russes,” by the erudite Wieniawski, Marsick again exhib- ited bis facile and non-vigorous execution. The audience as usual displayed a dispo- sition to applaud the melodious strains of an adagio movement.
