The Letter-Box [excerpt]

     H. Wettstein, Fitzgerald, Ga.—Why do we not lay more stress on the fact that Czolgosz was a Catholic? Because it is evident from the manner of his death that he was not a Catholic. To attempt to throw odium on the Catholic Church because he was raised in their faith, which he abandoned, is as absurd as the [?] method on the part of our enemies. Your estimate of the dishonesty of all government officials, no matter what their political tag, is entirely correct. The position they are placed in makes it natural; if they remain uncontaminated it is an extraordinary exception and not the rule.
