Silently and patiently, we must mass our Roman Catholics #
in the great cities of the United States, remembering that the vote of a poor journeyman, though he be covered with rags, has a much weight in the scale of powers as the millionaire Astor, and that if we have two votes against his one, he will become as powerless as an oyster. Let us then multiply our votes; let us call our poor but faithful Irish Catholic from every corner of the world, and gather them into the very hearts of the cities of Washington, New York, Boston, Chocago, Buffalo, Albany, Troy, Cincinnati.
Under the shadows of these great cities, the Americans consider themselves a giant unconquerable race. They took upon Irish Catholics with Supreme contempt, as only fit to dig their canals, sweep their streets and work and work in their kitchens. Let no one awake these sleeping lions, today. Let us pray God that they continue to sleep a few years longer, waking only to find their votes outnumbered as we will turn them forever, out of every position of honor, power and profit!.. what will those so called giants think when not a single senator or member of Congress will be chosen, unless he has submitted to our holy father the pope!
We will not only elect the president, but fill and command the armies, man the navies, and hold keys of the public treasury!...
Then, yes then, we will rule the United States and lay them at feet of the vicar of Jesus Christ, that he may put an end to their godless system of education and impious laws of liberty of conscience, which are an insult to God and man! Charles Cliniquey, Fifty years in the church of Rome, Chick Publications, pp. 281,282.
When they say "Vicar of Jesus Christ " they mean the pope. And the word Vicar = means the representative of Jesus Christ. But Jesus has appointed no human being to take his place.
