AS USUAL, OUR FRIEND SHOWS
A CLEAR INSIGHT INTO
EVENTS.
Dear Sir: Your able article on
the Frank case, in your June 10th
issue, demands this question, “Have
we become a lawless nation?” The
Hans Schmidt case, through Roman
Catholic judges and juries, was de
fied and hidden from the public by
the invisible power of priests and
judges of courts. The drunken
priest-murderer, Mullin, of Chicago,
was petted and coddled until able to
stand trial, which was merely a farce,
to the lasting disgrace of Chicago
courts, as there was wide-open, day
light evidence of the priest’s crime;
yet he was set entirely free. Not
even the hidden punishment that
Priest Hans Schmidt receives, yet
the laws of the United States are
supposed to apply equally alike to all
races, religions or nationalities.
Each State of the United States
has, in bygone years, held murderers,
under the law, alike. No State law
could do more or less. Now, the
tendency is growing to evade the
laws, even of the vilest kind. If a
life shall no longer pay the penalty
of taking life, then the people must
arise and demand another method.
For treason to our country, which
means the politicians who sell their
country for votes, to any bosses, any
organizations, any races, like Jew,
Catholic, or any foreign nation, resi
dent in our country, or for protect
ing criminals by invisible power of
votes and large sums of cash—for
these two crimes, of treason and
murder, the penalty must be impris
onment for life, or the death penalty.
Every criminal now expects if he gets
life sentence to be paroled or par
doned. That is one reason the des
perate methods are used to make it
a life sentence. If it is understood
that no parole or pardon can be in
voked or allowed there would be less
lawbreaking; and, if the fiat goes
forth that no priest or Catholic can
commit murder and go free or pun
ishment —that they must obey all
law the same as other people do —we
will bid defiance to the pope’s com
mand, “Moto propu,” also his cussed
foreign, arrogant law, “Ne temere.”
American people respect their
laws, and accept the punishment if
they break the laws, but a foreign
potentate, the Italian pope, seeks to
flood our country with his drunken,
criminal, licentious priests, then de
mand that our laws be null and .void
when those priests commit the worst
of crimes. It looks as though the
United States were made the jump
ing ground of all nations. who < 'load
upon us their criminals, insane, im
beciles and thieves and those who
will not work, but become parasites
upon cities, taxpayers and charities.
Our Congressmen have got to un
derstand that they begin to obey the
United States Constitution, next ses
sion of Congress, or hell will boil
over.
The American people will no
longer stand defiance of their wishes
and demands, and as the appointive
power of the President has filled
every office in the United States with
Catholic incumbents, we are having
too much pope and priest defiance
of our bed-rock laws. We have got
the Constitution, and, as Old Hick
ory said, “By the eternal, we will
stand by it to the limit. Our law
plainly says, “Congress shall make
no law establishing religion,” yet
those Congressmen, for votes re
ceived, dared to establish Jesuit
chaplains in our American Army,
Navy and Training ' Schools, with
their confessional boxes, and with
Officers’ rank, and salaries, that they
may have an officer’s authority to
compel army officers to divulge army
secrets. Everyone knows that if en
listed <hen do not obey orders they
feet punished, which compels our
loyal American soldiers to be ordered
iabout by Jesuits, who hold their al
legiance to the Italian pope. How
do you like that state of affairs, you
loyal fathers and mothers in the
United States? See that you don’t
vote for a Congressman under Cath
olic control. Watch every insiduous
THE JEFFERSONIAN
argument attempting to entangle
our country into the Mexican
troubles, or the European war.
Those Jesuit chaplains, born and
raised and instilled with foreign
principles can easily, at command of
their leaders in foreign countries,
distort events, and with their power
over the Catholics, control American
men at the head of our United States
4rmy and Navy who may talk peace
out of one breath and act treason
with another. We are in a very
dangerous position. Don’t take any
imaginary so-called insults to our
flag as a need of war. The flag can
stand it with more safety than our
American men’s lives.
God above us, when we get rid of
our present crop of traitors in office,
under pope, priest and Jesuit chap
lain control, we ought to have a new
National holiday and National ad
dress of renewed devotion to the
country that our forefathers made
and gave to us. Keep the dear old
motto over every door, “Eternal Vigi
lance is the price of Freedom and
Liberty.” ROBERT RANDOLPH.

OUR PEOPLE SEEM TO BE
WAKING UP.
Dear Sir: Our people are all be
ginning to wake up as to the issue of
the day. A lot of people here who
used to fight Hon. Thos. E. Watson
are now his friends. We are •with
you in the stand you have taken in
the Frank case. John M. Slaton has
disgraced the good name of our grand
old State of Georgia. He is the worst
despised man today in Georgia.
Ninety per cent of Walton county is
against him. He had better stay out
of here if he wants to stay with
friends.
I have just made a trip over to
Walhalla, S. C. I find your paper
popular at every place I stopped at.
Long may you live and keep up your
good work for the noble cause you
espouse. We hope at some time to
receive a visit from you. We will
have a fair here in October, and
hope you will visit us, as w r e would
give you a cordial welcome.
Wishing you success in your noble
fight on Catholicism, I am,
Yours respectfully.
Ga. W. B. PATRICK.
AND BARNEY’S NAME IS ALSO
“AMONG THOSE PRESENT.”
Dear Sir: I have been reading
from your pen all the facts since the
Frank case started. I have read let
ter after letter from all the nearby
towns, villages and cities, and it
seems strange there is not a line
from Barney. Now, Barney is merely
a village; anyway, Barney is always
for the right thing, and right here
Barney stands firm for Mary Phagan,
because there are some good and hon
orable citizens that realize our pres
ent condition. They realize that dear
Old Georgia is shrouded in a mantle
of shame, and across that shroud in
letters of blood is written “John M.
Slaton.” Slaton was in the sad past
a greatly admired man, who could
have, in the near future gone to the
United States Senate, where he longs
to be, had be only had the manhood
to have let our courts handled their
murderers and rapists.
If I have failed in any part lay it
to head and not to heart. I humbly
beg to remain one of Slaton’s
“scums.” GEORGIA V. HIRES.

AN OLD FRIEND EXTENDS
THANKS.
Dear Sir: For your editorial in a
recent Jeffersonian, “When Mobs Are
No Longer Possible, Liberty Will Be
Dead,” I wish to extend to you my
deepest appreciation. This, like
many others that have been handed
us from your pen, contains deep
thoughts that have been neglected
too long. I wish to thank you very
much for defending the people of
our State against the villainous at
tacks made upon us by the rich Jews
of the North.
I am, your loyal friend,
Ga. W. M. POOLE.
A LETTER TO THE READERS OF
THE JEFERSONIAN.
Hon. Thos. E. Watson’s 59th birth
day occurs on the sth day of Septem
ber, 1915.
I will ask every reader of The
Jeffersonian who is in favor of Truth,
Justice, Honor, Incorruptibility and
Fair Play to honor Mr. Watson, our
greatest living American, by sending
him a birthday card. Let us just not
make it a birthday card shower, but
let us make it an avalanche. As
Georgia has never had an avalanche,
let us send one down on Thomson
which will astonish not only Mr.
Watson, but also the natives.
Everybody get busy and get ready
to start that avalanche so it will
reach Thomson on schedule time.
Respectfully, A. L. SWIHART.

THE DAILY PAPER QUESTION
HAS BEEN SETTLED, AND
T. E. W. STAYS ON THE
JEFF JOB.
Dear Sir: I wish to say this much
about your running a daily paper in
Atlanta: It is a glorious privilege
to read after your master mind, and
I want you to be particular as to any
change you may see fit to make.
This offer your friends are holding
up to you is tempting, indeed, and
the possibilities may be great, but it
doesn’t sound just right to me. I
am with you to the end, as long as
you pursue the course you now pur
sue. Sincerely your friend,
Ga. R. S. CANADY.
