Mr. Chiniquy in California. 
 
 Printed by thk "Loyal Wombn of Amkrican Liberty." by vbrmisbiojt «>r 
 Rev. Charlbb Chiniquy, "Romaw Catholic Priest." 
 
 "When in 1852 it became evident that my 
 plans of forming a colony of French 
 Canadians on the fertile plains of Illinois 
 was to be a Miccess, D'Arcy McGee, then 
 editor of the Freeman'' s Journal, the official 
 paper of the Bishop of New York, wrote me 
 to know my views, and he determined imme- 
 diately to put himeJ li, the head of a similar 
 enterprise in favor of the Roman Catholics. 
 He published long and able ai'ticles to show 
 how the Irish people, with few exceptions, 
 were demoralized and kept down in th-^ cities 
 and how they would soon be raised to the top 
 if they could be induced to exchange their 
 city grog-shops and saloons for the rich 
 lands of the "West. Through his influence, a 
 large assembly, principally composed of 
 Iiish Priests, to which I was invited, met at 
 Buffalo, in the spring of 1853. But what was 
 his disappointment when he saw that the 
 greatest part of these priests were sent by 
 the bishops of New York, Albany, Boston, 
 etc, to oppose and defeat his plans! He 
 vainly spoke with the most bui*ning elo- 
 quence for the support of his pet scheme. 
 The majority of the priests coldly answered 
 liim in the name of their bishops. "We 
 !n-e determined, like you, to take posession 
 (•f <he United States and ru (» them ; but we 
 rannot do that except by acting sec^retly, and 
 by using the utmost wisdom. If our plans 
 were known they would certainly be defeated 
 What does a skilful general do when he 
 wants to c mquer a country? Does he scatter 
 ^jis soldiers over the farm lands and spend 
 tlifeir lime and energies in plowing the fields 
 * iind sowing the grain ? No. He keeps them 
 n-i'll nnited around his banners, and marches 
 
 at. their head to the conquost of the strong- 
 holds. He subdues the large cities one after 
 the other ; he pulls down the high towers and 
 the citadels which he meets on his way. 
 Then the farming countries arc conquered, 
 and become the price of his victory without 
 moving a finger. So it is with us. Silently 
 and patiently we must mass our Irish Rom- 
 an Catholics in the great cities of the United 
 States. Let ua remember that in this coun- 
 try the vote of one of our poorest journeymen 
 covered with rags, has as much wcnght in 
 the scale of power as the vote of the million- 
 aire Astor, and that if we have two vot< s 
 against the millionaire's one, he becomes as 
 powerless as an oyster. Then let us multi- 
 ply our voters : let us call our poor, l)ut faith- 
 ful Irish Catholics, and gather them from 
 the far corners of the world into the very 
 hearts of those proud citadels which the Yan- 
 kees are so pi-oudly building up under the 
 name of New York, Boston, Chicago, Albany, 
 Troy, etc. Under the shadows of those great 
 cities the Americans consider themselves as 
 a giant and an unconquerable race. They 
 look upon the Irish Catholic with the utmost 
 contempt, as only fit to dig their canals, 
 sweep their streets, or humbly cook their 
 niealB in their kitchen. Let no one awake 
 these Bleeping lions to-day ; let us pray God 
 that they may sleep and dream their sweet 
 dreams a few years more. How sad will be 
 their awakening when, with our out-rnum- 
 bering votes, we will turn them out, and for- 
 ever, from every positon of power, honor, 
 and profit! What will these hypocritical 
 sons and daughters of the fanatical Pilgrfm 
 Fathers say, when not a single judge, not a

 Biiifrle 8<;h«x)l-teachei-, not even a single 
 poluremon will be e)<.<-f ed, if lie be not a de- 
 vote. I Irish Catholic? Wliut will those w- 
 called giantH think and say of their unsur- 
 pas.se.l ability, skill and shrewdness, when 
 not a single govei-uor, sermt.ir nv n.enibei- of 
 Parliament will be eleet.'.l. if he be not sin- 
 cerely dev<.ted to Our H<.ly Father, the 
 Po].e? Whatasa.1 figure those Protestant 
 -^'iankees will eut when we elect not only the 
 P.-<'si<lent, but fill and command the armies, 
 man the navy, and have the keys of the pub- 
 lic! treasury in our hands! It will then be 
 the tnne for our devoted Irish Catholics to 
 give up their grog-shops to become the gov- 
 mu.rs and judges of the land. Then our 
 poor an<l humble Irish mechanics will come 
 out from the damp ditches and the canals to 
 rule the cities in all their departments, fj-ora 
 the stately mansion of mayor to the more 
 humble, though not less noble, position of 
 8ch.Kil-teacher. Then, yes, we will i-ule the 
 United States, and lay them at the feet of 
 the Vicar of Jesus Christ, that he may put 
 an end to their godless system of education 
 and sweep away those impious laws of liber- 
 ty of conscience which^are an insult to God 
 and man." Poor D'Arcy McGee was left al- 
 most alone when the vote was taken. 
 
 Fi-om that time the Roman Catholic 
 priests, with the ;most admirable ability 
 have massed their Irish legions into the 
 the great cities of the United States and the 
 Americans must be very blind indeed, if 
 they do rot see that the day is very near 
 whei. the '-^suits will rule then- cities, from 
 the mag-- .ent White House of Washington, 
 to he humblest civU or n.ilitary departments 
 of tins vast Republic. They are already the 
 masters of New York, Baltimore, Chicago, 
 St. Paul, Milwaukee, St. Louis, New Orleans, 
 Cmcmnati and San Francisco. Yes San 
 Francisco, the gieat, the beautiful Queen of 
 
 the Wesi,-San Francisco is in the hands of 
 the Jesuits. 
 
 From the very first days of the discov- 
 Hry of the gold mines of California, the Jes- 
 uits conceived the hope of becoming the 
 masters of those inexhaustible trnasures, and 
 they laid their plans with the most admirable 
 
 wisdom. They soon saw that the immense 
 majority of the lucky miners of every creed 
 and nation were going back home as soon as 
 they had enough to secure an honorable pos- 
 ition to their families. It became at first evi- 
 dent that very few of the multitudes which 
 the thirst of gul.l had attracted fro.n every 
 corner of the United States an.l Canada and 
 Europe to California would settle in a coun- 
 try where, from a thousanfl causes, it would 
 l)e very <liffi,;nlt, if not imi„.ssible, for a 
 number of years, to find a ro<im fo.- an Imn- 
 Hst woman, and raise a Christian family. 
 It is a well-known fact that San Francisco 
 .>ver.rr(nvded with Americans, French' 
 English, Scotch, Germans, Canadians,-ha.i 
 thousands of adventurers and gold-seekers 
 against a dozen of men who had any idea of 
 fixing themselves on her soil, and l)ecomi,.g 
 her citizens. The shrewd Jesuits did not 
 take many days to see that if they coul<l per- 
 suade the Irish Roman Catholics to ,:hoose 
 San Francisco for their homes, they would 
 soon be the masters and the .mly rulers of 
 that golden .nty whose future was so bright 
 and so great; «nd that scheme, worked night 
 and day with the utmost perseverance and 
 ability, has been crowned with perfect suc- 
 ce.s8. When, with few exceptions, the lucky 
 Frenchman who had made himself rich in 
 San Francisco, was going baitk to his "Belle 
 Prance." and that the intelligent German, 
 the mdustrious Scotchman, the shrewd New 
 Yorker, the honest Canadian, has found gold 
 enough to live comfortably, they gladly bid 
 eternal farewell to San Francisco, and went 
 back to enjoy their f.irtune in their own dear 
 old home. But the Irish Roman Catholics 
 were taught to consider San Francisco as 
 their "promised land," and the rich inheri- 
 tance (Jod had in store for them. 
 
 The coHsecpience is, that where you find 
 only a few American, German and English 
 millionaires in San Francis(K), you count more 
 than fifty Irish Catholic millionaires in that 
 city. 
 
 The richest bank of San Francisco-the 
 Nevada Bank-is in the hands of the Irish 
 Catholics. All the street railroads of the city *^ 
 belong to the irish loman Catholics. The

 I of the city *^ 
 lies. The . 
 
 s 
 
 principal offices of the city are fille<i with the 
 Ii if<h Roman Catholics. Almost all the po- 
 licemen are Irish Ronuin Catholics. Almost 
 all the voluntary riilitary asRociationK are 
 romjMif ..,1 of Irish Roman Catholics. The 
 .'ompact unity of ihe 1,-ish Roman Catholics, 
 wilh their enormous wealth, makes them 
 almost sujireme masters of the mines of 
 California and Nevada. 
 
 When one knows the absijlnte and abject 
 submission of the Irish Roman Catholic, 
 rich or poor, to his priests, how the mind, 
 the will, the soul and the intelligence of the 
 Iiish are tirndy, irrevocably tied to the feet 
 of the priests, he can see at a glance that the 
 Jesuits of California form one of the richest 
 and most powerful (corporations the world 
 has ever seen. 
 
 It is a public fact, th«t those fifty Irish 
 Catholic niillipnaires, with their myriads of 
 rich employees, are, through their wives as 
 well as themselves, constantly at the feet of 
 the Jesuits, who here, more than in any oth- 
 er place, really swim in a golden sea. 
 
 No man, if he be not a Roman Catholic, or 
 if he be not one of those so-called Protestants 
 who send their daughters to the nuns, and 
 their sons to the Jesuits for their education, 
 need hope to have any lucrative or honora- 
 ble position in San Fi-ancisco. 
 
 Entirely given up to (piencihing their thirst 
 for gold, the Americans of San Francisco, 
 with very few exceptions, do not give a sin- 
 gle moment's attention to this dark cloud 
 which is rising here at the horizon of their 
 countiy. Though it is visible to every eye 
 that timt cloud is filled with rivers of blood 
 and tears, they let the cloud grow and rise, 
 without even caring how to escape the im ' 
 I>ending hurricane. It does not take a long 
 residence in San Francisco to see that the 
 Jesuits have chosen that city for their citadel 
 
 on this Continent. Their incalculable treas- 
 nres give them a power which we may call 
 irresistible in a country and in days where 
 gold is everything to everyone. It is to San 
 Francisco that you must come to have an 
 idea of the number of great and pow(,'rfuI 
 organizations with which the Church of Rome 
 iapreimring herself for the impending con- 
 flict, through which she hopes to destroj- tlie 
 system of education, and every vestige of 
 liberty and human rights in tne United 
 States, as she bravely and publicly an- 
 nounced it not long ago in her most popular 
 organs, the Catholic World, of New Yr rk, 
 and the Catholic Review. 
 
 "The Catholic Church numbers one-third 
 of the American population, and if its mem- 
 bership shall increase for the next thirty 
 years as it has for the thirty years past, in 
 1900 Rome will have a majority, and be 
 bound to this country and keep it. There is, 
 ere long to be a State religion in this country 
 and that State religion is to be Roman Cath- 
 olic. The Roman Catholic is to wield his vote 
 for the purpose of securing Catholic ascen- 
 dancy in this cor , try. All legislation must 
 be governed by tne will of God unerringly 
 indicated by the Pope. Education must be 
 controlled by Catholic authorities; and un- 
 der education the opinions of the individual 
 and the utterances of the press are included. 
 Many opinions are to be furnished by the 
 secular arm, under ti. authority of the. 
 Church, even to war and bloodshed."— Offl«A- 
 olic World, July, 1870. 
 
 "While a State has rights, she has them 
 only in virtue and by permission of the su- 
 perior authorit;y-, and that authority can only 
 be expressed tl- cough the Church. Protest- 
 antism of every form has not, and never can 
 have, any right where Catholicity has tri- 
 umphed ; and therefore we loose the breath 
 we expend in declaiming against bigotry and 
 intolerance, and in favor of religious liberty, 
 or the right of any man to be of any religion 
 as best pleases him."— Catholic Review, 
 July, 1870.

 In order to more easily drill the IriBh 
 Catholics, and prepare them for the impend- 
 ing' conflict, the Jesuits have organized thorn 
 into a jfi-eat number of secret societies, the 
 principal of which are: Ist, Ancient Order of 
 Hibeinians ; 2d, Irish American Society; 8d, 
 Knights of 8t. Patrick; 4th, St. Patrick's 
 Cadets; 5th, Apostles of Liberty; 6th, Be- 
 nevolent Sons of the Emerald Isle; 7th, 
 Knights of St. Peter; 8th, Knights of the Red 
 Branch ; »th, Knights of Collumbkill. 
 
 AlmoHt all these secret associations are 
 military c.nes; they have their headquarters 
 , in San Franciscf), but their rank and file are 
 scattcre.! all over the United States from the 
 Pacific, to the Atlantic Ocean. They number 
 700,000 soldiers, who, under the name of 
 United States Volunteer Militia, are officered 
 by the most skilful and able generals of the 
 great Republic; for it is a fact to which the 
 Americans (U) not sufficiently pay attention, 
 that the Jesuits have been shrewd jnough to 
 have a vast majority of Roman Catholic 
 officers and generals to command the armies, 
 and man the aai^y of the United States. 
 
 Who will be able to stand against a power 
 which will be supported by 700;000 soldiers, 
 well drilled, armed with the best modern 
 arms, ofiScered by the most skillful military 
 men of the United States, and whose treas- 
 urers will not only have the key of the treas- 
 
 ury of this great country, but will be, in 
 groat part, the ^.nasters of the untold millions 
 dug out from or yet concealetl in the inex- 
 haustible go:d and silver mines of CalifornU 
 and Nevada? 
 
 And that you may know the Christian feel- 
 ings of the Jesuit priests of San Francisco, 
 Canada, and the whole world toward Eng- 
 land and her sons and daughters, read the 
 following extract from the address of Father 
 Rooney, last St. Patrick's Day:- 
 
 "Irish Cathomcs: Trust your priests, as 
 you ever have as a nation, and when the 
 propitious moment comes to settle accounts 
 with brutal, old England, the murderer of 
 your priests and forefathers, the merciless 
 despoiler of your Banctuai-ies, the pilferer of 
 your possessions, the starver of your people, 
 
 TH08H PRIESTS WILL BLB88 THB SWORD thatyou 
 
 may use, that it may cut more keenly; the 
 bullet, that it may perforate more deeply; 
 and your hands, that they may wield tho 
 weapon more powerfully; and your nerves, 
 that you may the more steadUy avenge your 
 injured mother and your noble ancestors. 
 Never trust an enemy that has deceived us 
 as often as England, and violated every 
 treaty made with us. You need expect no- 
 thing from her except through the cannon's 
 roar, the whizzing bullet, and the ashing 
 scimitar! But let us be sure wb akb well
