From the Catholic Standpoint

Quoting the New Century, the Catholic Transcript of June 20, 1912, says this regarding the opposition of the A. P. A. (Guardians of Liberty) to the Roman Church:—
This is the glorious land of free speech — the freer the better, apparently, when it is directed against the Catholic religion. But Catholics should possess themselves in patience, notwithstanding, and permit the new A. P. A. free room for expansion. It is a noxious weed, and will flourish only where the atmosphere is unfit for a healthy man to breathe. When, therefore, A. P. A. lecturers come to a city, we should not seek to curtail their right to speak; but if, in their references to Catholics, they make statements laying them open to libel, then is the time for Catholics to get busy. Father Vaughan, S. J., some years since, in his famous victory over the Rock, set Catholics on both sides of the water an example they would do well to follow on like occasions.
