A VOICE FROM MISSISSIPPI.
Dear Sir: Pardon me for bother
ing you; but I will “bust” with in
dignation if I don’t let some of it
out.
1 have followed you from the be
ginning, step by step, in the famous
and infamous “Frank Case,” and in
my opinion you have won—though
you lost.
There is far more honor in fight
ing to the last ditch and then losing,
when one is fighting for Justice,
Honor, Chastity, Virtue and Home,
than there is in fighting for any
other cause.
I note the indignation of the peo
ple of Georgia, and just wanted to
let you know that the indignation
is not confined to Georgia alone. So
please pardon me for'intruding.
Respectfully yours for justice to
the end.
Miss. E. R. RANKIN.
THE VALUED INDORSEMENT OF
A LADY.
Dear Sir: Will you please accept
these few words as coming from a
woman, one who feels that she would
like to congratulate you on the brave
stand you have taken—always in de
fense of our beloved State and her
beloved people.
Why is it that we have not more
brave men just like you? You have
many admirers, both men and women,
in our State; but somehow they seem
afraid to speak out.
Though not a subscriber, I read
The Jeffersonian from my neighbor.
Am with you always on the Roman
Catholic question, the Foreign Mis
sionary, and the Frank case. What
a disgrace to our State this case has
proven to be through the commuta
tion of sentence by our Governor!
Slaton will hereafter, I am sure, take
a back seat.
Long may you live, and ever be
prosperous, is the wish of one woman
who admires you for the brave stand
you take.

In the August Number of Watson’s
Magazine, Now on the Press, j
ji
Is a full and thorough presentation of the law, and of the evidence in the celebrated case of Leo S
Frank —a case which will always occupy a prominent place in the history of famous trials.
f This is the only article which correctly presents to the world, a fair and complete statement
of eorgia law and of the evidence upon which the jury convicted Leo Frank, and at the same ||
time defends our Supreme Court from the impudent and repeated accusation that it did not review '
the evidence in the case.
This article is the only one wliich shows to the public what it was that our Supreme Court de
cided, and upon how small a point of immaterial evidence, two of the Justices differed from the j!
8 four. \
It is the only article which shows how Frank’s lawyers attempted to trick the Supreme Court of |i
the United States, by carrying before it a plea of mob violence, without presenting to that liighest
of American tribunals, the evidence upon which Judge Benjamin IL Hill and the Supreme Court
of Georgia had decided that no mob intimidation of the jury had been proven.
; It is the only article which shows that two of the United Suites Supreme Court Justices, dis-
sering from the seven, held that the decision ofJudge Hill, and the unanimous decision of our
Supreme Court, sustaining Judge Hill, should be treated as null and void, without giving the State |
| of Georgia an opportunity to present to the United States Supreme Court the evidence upon which >1
the Georgia courts had acted.
This article also show's the methods by whici Jew’ money instituted a national campaign of
slander against the laws, the courts and the people of Georgia, and how that malignant campaign
was defeated all along the line until one of the lawyers, defending Leo Frank, prostituted the
Chief Magistrate of a great State, to save his guilty client from just punishment.
This article is illustrated by numerous cuts picturing the honest, fearless and able Solicitor,
BHugh M. Dorsey, and some of those incorruptible work-people of Atlanta whose testimony com- , |
pteted the chain of evidenc against the Jew’ who assaulted and murdered the little Gentile white
It also presents the pictures of Leo Frank as he i eally is, and the idealized pictures of him
i which the Hearst-Selig movies have used in the campaign against us. j!
It also presents the pictures of the detectives on both sides of the case, together with the two ne
groes who w ere working w ith Frank at the time of his crime.
It contains also a picture of the jury*
This article occupies nearly all of the August magazine, and therefore is really a w ork on the
f case, which will possess permanent value, as long as people are interested in knowing what was the
truth about this celebrated case, and how it v.asJew money established in Georgia the infamous
‘ doctrine that no rich Jew’ shall be punished for a crime committea against a Gentile.

rHE JEFFERSONIAN
WILL IT COME TO THIS?
Dear Sir: Wc, the undersigned
citizens of Summertown, Emanuql
County, and State of Georgia, do
hereby wish to express our apprecia
tion and heartfelt thanks to you for
the grand and noble fight you made
in the Leo M. Frank case, where poor
little Mary Phagan died rather than
give up her virtue. While her blood
cries to heaven for vengeance, we are
sure you did your duty.
Governor Slaton’s over-riding State
and Supreme Court decisions, and
commuting Frank, is enough to teach
us that poor girls of the State of
Georgia have no protection outside of
mob vengeance.
Please publish this ;n next week’s
Jeffersonian.

AN ATLANTA MAN WRITES.
Dear Sir: You did a man’s work
in the Frank case, but Jew money
was against you. They could not
corrupt the courts, but they could,
and did, “get to” Slaton.
I would like to sgn ia petition to
the Georgia Legislature to change
the name of John Marshall Slaton to
Jew Money Slaton. How about it?
How would it do for every man
and woman in Georgia to point the
finger of scorn and spit at him when
ever and wherever Jew Money shows
his face?
Thanking you for your work for
right and justice on all occasions,
and in the Frank case in particular,
I beg to remain,
ELIJAH M. PATTERSON.
A HOTEL MAN SENDS US EN
COURAGEMENT.
Dear Sir: I wish I could shake
your hand and tell you in person how
much I appreciate your last piece on
J. M. Slaton.
With best wishes for you and
yours, I am with you always.
Yours very respectfully,
Ga. H. V. FILLINGINE.
THE POOR MAN’S DAUGHTER NOT
PROTECTED FROM THE
RICH.
Dear Sir: Governor Slaton has
disgraced the State of Georgia. May
God have mercy on his poor soul.
Were I a citizen of the State of Geor
gia, and my child should be ravished
and murdered, do you think I would
ask the courts to defend that child?
I consider Slaton a thousand times
worse than Frank, and if money or
other like considerations have influ
enced his actions in this matter, I
trust that God and the people of
Georgia will do him justice.
Most truly youre,
Fla. ROBT. T. KYLE.

The deplorable,“ shameful thjng
which has happened in Georgia is a
source of chagrin and humiliation,
hot only to the people of Georgia,
whose laws have been set at naught
