Romanism Denounced by Baptist Conference Leader

In New York on November 26 the Baptist pastor's conference heard Rev D C Potter discuss the Roman Catholic Congress in Baltimore and the Roman Catholic movement. He asserted Rome seeks global political power and that a new struggle between Romanism and Protestantism has begun, urging defense of public schools and prodding anti Catholic taxes and influence. He warned of Rome's supposed intent to control governments and criticized Catholic education funding. The talk touched on New Jersey clergy, and other editorials noted powders for naval use and Hood's Sarsaparilla promotions.
