propose to allow Catholicism to convince you, by her doctrines of
degeneracy, that she is right, and that you acknowledge her as right
by you sending your children to her institutions of learning?

Catholicism has always made her boast that if she can control the
children until they are 7 to 10 years old, that they will control the
government in the future, and it seems as though Protestant America
is perfectly willing to risk the consequences, but let me sound a
warning in your ears in this chapter, which may not arouse you from
your national stupidity, but which, in after years, will rumble down
the avenues of the future the truthfulness of this assertion that
will make the Protestant world shudder. It is this: "_Unless you
guard the goddess of your American liberty with the patriotism of you
Protestant manhood, it will not be long until you will find this
government face to face with a problem more perplexing than the
government of France is wrestling with to-day, on account of this
Romish beast, whose jaws are dripping with the blood of doomed
ambition._"

Catholicism is like a thief in the night, as she goes about her
devastation of human rights with the tread of a thief and with the
cunning of a bold deceiver, which she is, and this country must
station trustworthy men upon the ramparts of this government to watch
her progress and batter down her foundation of superstition and
ignorance, or within the next fifty years America will find herself
bound hand and foot by this Romish creed of abominations, which has
caused every nation on the face of the earth that she has ever
controlled to wither and decay under her touch, like the tender plant
under the broiling rays of a tropical sun.
