_More Catholics Than Protestants_

THE Christian Advocate for July 21 is responsible for the statement that in sixteen States and Territories in this country, the majority of church-members are Roman Catholics, and gives the following percentages in support of this claim:—
“New Mexico, 88.7; Rhode Island, 74; Montana, 73.1; Massachusetts, 69.2; Nevada, 66.7; Arizona, 66.2; New York, 63.6; New Hampshire, 63; Louisiana, 61.3; Connecticut, 59.6; California, 58; Vermont, 55.9; Maine, 53.3; New Jersey, 51.5; Wisconsin, 50.5; Michigan, 50.1.”
From this list it is apparent that in all the New England States, Roman Catholic communicants outnumber those of the combined Protestant churches.
