A LETTER TO CATHOLICS.
Ileum on tli War With Spain Will
lU'iul Sunday.
i.i'
Thu Arclibihos of tlio Catholic church in
the I'nitml States have agreed upou u letter
addressed to the clergy and laity of tho
country. The lettor heart on the war with
Spain, and will be read iu nil the churches on
Sunday. It is indorsed by Motisicnor Mar
tlnclli, thu apostolic delegate, and is ns
follows :
"To tho clew and laity of tho Catholic
churru of t tic United States, RreetiiiK :
"The events that havo succeeded tho lilow
iiie up of the Inttlexlilp Maino and thu sacri
lice of 2fi0 innocent victims, tho lutrir.tlc
eamen of tlie United States, Iuitc culminated
in a war with Siwiii and our own beloved
country.
'Whatever may have heou tho individual
opinions of Americans prior to tho declara
tion of wnr.thero can now he no two opinions
as to tho duty of eery loyal American
citizen. A rewirt to anus was determined
upon by the cliiof executive of tho nation,
with the advice of both Houses of Cohkicss
and after consultation with his cabinet
otticers, hut not until after ovory effort had
heen exhausted to brine about an honorable
and peaceful solution of our dilUcultles with
Spain. The patient calmness, tho dignified
forbearance, the subdued llrmuess of Presi
dent MeKinley during thu trying time that
intervened between the destruction of the
Maino and tho declaration aro boyoud all
praise, and should command tho admiration
of every truo American. Wo, tho members
of tho Catholic church, are truo Americans,
and ns such aro loyal to our country and our
nag and obedient to tho muliest decrees and
the supremo authority of the nation.
"Wo aro not now oueaged in a war of section
against section, or state against state, but wo
aro united as one man against a foreign enemy
and a common foe. If, as wo aro taught by
our holy church, love of country is next to
lovo of fiod, a duty impiwd on us by all
laws, human and divine, then it is our duty
to labor and to pray for tho temporal and
spiritual well-being of tho bravo Milcliors who
aro battling for our beloved country. Let us
faithfully beg the God of battles to crown
their arms on land and sea witli victory and
triumph, and to stay unnecessary ell'usion of
ulonif, ami t-peeilily to rcstoio pcatu to our
iioiovou land and peoplo.
"To this end we direct that on and after
tho receipt of this circular, and until the
clo.io of the war, every riest shall, in Ilia
daily mass, pray fort.io lestoration of peace
by tho glo"-:cs victory of our flag. We also
direct that prayers for tho bravo soldiers and
sailors that fall in battle bo said every dat
aller a mass. 1 lieso prayers shall bo said
aloud witli tho people, and shall be one "Our
Jwither, and one "Jlail .Mary" and tho "l)c
Pr ifondis.
'We pray that God may bless and preserve
our country in this great crisis, and speedily
onus victory, honor and peaco to all out
peoplo "
