THE DAWN OF NEW ERA.
Vol. 11, No. 49
Leo Frank, As a Regular Newspaper Contributor
IVEVER before in the history of this coun
try has any convicted criminal been given
the freedom of the daily papers, that Frank
has enjoyed.
It is a lonesome week when we are not
regaled with several columns of old hash,
freshly warmed over by this filthy and mur
derous Sodomite.
Simultaneously with the appearance of this
stuff in the Georgia papers, at appears in the
Northern papers which are owned by rich
Jews.
The Baltimore Sun, owned by the Abells;
the New York II orld, owned by the Pulitzers;
the Times, owned by the Ochs; the Observer,
owned by the Benjamins, seem to receive
Frank's statements by telegraph at the same
time that he hands out copy to the dailies in
Georgia.

systematic crusade in behalf of one convicted
Republican Negroes Insult President At White House:
r PHE JEFFERSONIAN has not been in a
hurry to comment upon the disgraceful
scene presented to the world, when a self
appointed delegation of political negroes took
themselves to the White House and insulted
the President of the United States.
First of all, it was best to wait until all
the facts were agreed on.
Next, it was advisable to wait until the
Northern Democrats had had their say.
Nove, however, all the facts are agreed on,
and the Northern Democrats have had their
say.
Therefore The Jeffersonian may now be
permitted to preach on the subject without
running the risk of being too hasty.
How came those negroes at the White
Ho use, at all? Who made the appointment
for them? Who asked for it? What was the
delegation expected to do?

The Mexican Situation Compared to the Turkish Incident
AVNE of our national ships, the Tennessee',
was in Turkish waters, near Smyrna, and
the captain took it into his little head to go
ashore.
He is supposed to have known that Turkey
is in a state of war, as the ally of Germany,
and that she hasTo keep prepared to meet the
attacks of England, France and Russia.
Consequently, the captain of the Tennessee
ought to have known that Turkey could not
think of leaving such an harbor and town as
Smyrna’s open to seizure.
One of the chief custom-houses of Turkey
is there, and Smyrna is about as important
to Turkey, as Vera Cruz is to Mexico.
But this little sap-head of a naval captain
of the Tennessee gayly leaped into his launch
with a select crew, Hung out the Stars and
Stripes to the salubrious atmosphere, and
started into the harbor of Smyrna.

Why is it that, when the Governor of Geor
gia goes to New York to borrow money for
the State, he should be asked to talk of the
Frank case?
Jack Slaton has been in New York for the
purpose of arranging a big loan to refund
the old loan, and the rich Jews of the
North have apparently made a dead set at
him.
If the Governor does not resent this, the
people do—and they consider it an outrage.
Is the State of Georgia to be held up, in
the money market ?
Must the Governor give some sign in favor
of a condemned Sodomist and murderer, be
fore he can borrow money to refund the
bonds ?
I do not say so, but all men will agree that
it was most improper to mention the Frank
case at all, or to sound Gov. Slaton as to his

most prominent white folks cannot gain ac

Familiar instances, of recent occurrence,
will at once occur to your mind.
There were the California Shriners, who
went from the Atlanta Convention to Wash
ington City, and begged for an opportunity
to pay their respects to President Wilson.
These Western Masons were accompanied
by their wives, and were at considerable extra
expense in carfare and hotel bills, on .account
of their natural and complimentary desire to
see the President.'

Anyway, this pin-head Captain of the
Tennessee had not gone far in his launch be
fore there was a most emphatic protest from
Turkey.
Four batteries opened fire on the U. S. flag,
and four cannon balls came ripping right in
front of the Captain—as who should say,
“Skiddoo ! Beat it! Get out! Where are
you gwine? Scat!”
Well, Sir, that Captain was the worst sur
prised man that ever was seen, on sea or
shore—but what could he do?
He turned round in a stupified way and
went back to his ship.
Did he get any apologies for those four
round-shot that plowed the waters just in
front of his launch? No.
Did he demand that he be given a salute to
his flag? No.
Did he propose to land U. S. Funston at

to 48 years in the penitentiary for entering
the house of Schiff’s son. The impecunious
Jew actually served 7 years of the sentence,
and when finally let out, he was made to leave
the State of New York.
Jake Schiff would not consent for his fel
low Hebrew to remain in the same State with
his opulent self.
The offense of the penniless Jew in that
case was, apparently, that he had an assig
nation with young Schiff’s wife; and there

condemned to 48 years of penal servitude for

for these California ladies and gentlemen.
Tumulty ( insolently informed the Masons
that, if they would remain over in the Capitol
for the next week, he would arrange for the
President to see them!
Another case was that of the Bishop of
Alaska, a Protestant clergyman, who came
from that distant territory to see President
Wilson on business connected with his Alaskan
duties.
The Protestant Bishop was coldly refused
an audience. He waited .around Washington
City for more than two weeks, endeavoring
to gain access to the President. Tumulty
shut him out, and the Bishop had to return
to Alaska without having been allowed to
enter the White House.
