One of the rulers of England, Charles II, died with prostitutes about
him and died a disgrace to England and to himself, but Rome glorified
in him as one of her converts. The more of Rome a man or woman
possesses, and the less of God, the more the Roman Catholic Church
glorifies in him.

Catholicism is a coward--yea, a cringing coward--when not surrounded
by large numbers of her followers, as she has no excuse for her
existence and cannot defend herself by intelligent and godly
arguments, and the only way she can defend herself is by numbers; but
whenever she can resort to physical and brutal strength, she then
makes a fight which crimsons the earth with blood, and Protestantism
pays the penalty, and the reason why those in the country and in
sparsely settled districts do not know more of the hellishness of
Catholicism is because this creed cannot intelligently defend itself
and will not take issue with Protestantism unless she can take issue
by brutal power, but in our cities we have an exhibition of the
diabolical deeds of Catholicism, as the majority of our municipal
elections are controlled by the followers of Catholicism, as Rome's
followers congregate in our large cities, because they love darkness
better than light, and they infest the "tough" sections of our cities
and control our municipal elections by brute force, which is
sanctioned by the priestcraft.

We will take it for granted that the inhabitants of the United States
know more of Mexico than any other nation which is priest-ridden, so
we desire to dwell for a short time upon the characters of the
Mexican peon. You will find Mexico, which lays right across from
Texas on the Rio Grande River, a dividing line between ignorance and
intelligence, crime and godliness, and morality and immorality;
however, that part of Texas which lays near the Mexican border has
become contaminated to a great degree by these Mexican "dupes" who
follow the black flag of Romanism; but the difference in character,
in manhood, in womanhood, in intelligence and everything which
distinguishes right from wrong is so marked and so plain that one
does not have to look twice to see the difference, and there is no
cause nor no reason for this great difference in character, in
manhood and womanhood but the teachings of Rome.

If we expect America to retain her place among the nations of
intelligence and nat
