The memorial which Weaderk wanted read in the house today about the Anericari . Pro tective Association, comes from You mans, a member of tho last house, from the Eighth Michigan district, who was defeated by Wm. S. Linton. It declares that Linton and. his supporters repre sented that You man s was a Roman Catholic, and that the pope controlled his vote while In congress. The Amer ican Protective Association, a copy .of whose oaths accompany the memorial, binds Its members to do everything In their power to overthrow the Ro man Catholic church followers. Ex hibits of letters and circulars sent out by officers of the Amerlctn Protective Association are attached to the memo rial. They all breath the same hos tility to the Roman Catholics, and call upon "all true and loyal protectants" to vote for Linton. The alleged oaths which accompany the memorial are very binding. Among the oaths is number three," which Is taken on a dag ger, and binds the candidate to se crecy, commits him to' the support of the government, makes It obligatory to keep the church and state separate, and renounecs all foreign powers. In number four, the candidates swear war-( fare spwfnst ignorance and fanaticism, and to use their utmost power to strike the shackles and chains of blind obe dience to ,f he Roman Catholic church from the hampered and burdened con science of a priest ridden and church oppressed people. This oath goes on at great length against the Catholics, and in closing takes a political turn, the candidate swearing that he will not countenance the nomination In any caucus or convention a roman Cath olic for any office In the gift of tho people, and will vote only for protest ants. -Should there be two Catholics for the1 pome office, he will erase the names from the ticket. The remainder of the oaths ar-ehUoratlon of this, binding the nnmdate to"Ttv everything In his power-to keep the Catholics out of public office. Oath number five winds up with, "I denounce the Pope; his priests, and emissaries, and the dia bolical work of the Roman Catholic church. Amen, Amen, Amen." EDWIN GOULD'S TURN.
