were a few, who, encouraged by a spirit of sullen
hatred and anarchy, plotted to overthrow justice
at a blow, and glut their hatred by an act un
paralleled, even in the bloody history of lynch
law. The attack was not expected. The guards
were easily overpowered. Night aided the assas
sins in the purpose, and in skulking to cover once
it had been carried out. Until every man who
took part in this crime is found and punished, the
people of Georgia will have a duty to perform.
Governments are not set up to be overriddden by
assassins. Governors are not elected and put in
office to have their decisions flouted by murderous
mobs. There must be no refuge for these butch
ers. To give fhem aid or comfort, to offer them
opportunity for concealment is a criminal act, and
should be punished as such. For the authorities
to rest while they are still at liberty would be
inexcusable dereliction of duty. Governor Slaton
vindicated the honor of the State of Georgia
when he commuted Frank’s sentence, defying
when he did so the threats of the men who are
LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
HE WANTS NATHAN STRAUS TO
COME AHEAD!
Dear Sir: I have followed you
very carefully from day to day. as
far as the Frank case has appeared
in your paper, and desire to congrat
ulate you for the brave and glorious
fight that you have been making,
and are still making, for the virtuous
womanhood in the z grand old State of
Georgia, the Empire State of the
South, and wish to say further that
no man has ever in my knowledge
stood so fearless on the rock of criti
cism from the rich and powerful
money power that I am very sorry to
say seems to be governing very near
all of our periodicals at this present
day.
When little Mary Phagan was
done to death by a Jewish pervert
in the National Pencil Factory, at
Atlanta, Ga., there was a crime com
mitted that was destined to shake
the faith of the law-abiding people
of this grand old State, in so far as
looking to the law for a place of
refuge from crime, where there was
plenty of money to bribe such cow
ardly money-loving men as John M.
Slaton, Georgia’s traitor Governor.
I notice in a recent issue of The
Jeff where Nathan Straus says that
there has been a citizens’ meeting in
Georgia, caking upon you to leave
the State within one week for good.
Now suppose Nathan should be
extended an invitation to come down
and make a canvass of Georgia and
ascertain for himself the facts of
this meeting, and I wish to add right
here that I would like for Nathan
to make his advent into Georgia and
start at once for his petition and
visit this part of Georgia and just see
for himself how many signers he
would get to that noble petition. I
am satisfied that he would be ac
corded a reception that would be all
but pleasant to the Honorable
Nathan.
And you may rest assured that at
least 90 per coni of the people in
this part of the State are with you
in this great fight of all the ages for
law and order and the carrying out
of the penalty of the law. when
same has been approved by the very
highest tribunal in this State, and
backed up as being true by the high
est, tribunal in the United States.
'Away back in the ’Nineties, when
the Populist party was at its height,
my people were what was known as
Democrats, and always voted that
tocket, and consequently thought
that you were unquestionably the
fartherest out of your place of any
man in the world, but since T have
grown to manhood and have read a
great deal of your work, T find that
this was a mistaken idea that I had
learned to entertain of you.
Yours for law. and enforcement of
game, until death.

THE JEFFERSONIAN
GOVERNORS MUST NOT OVER
THROW THE COURTS.
Dear Sir: We are already in
debted to you beyond all computa
tion for the noble fight you have
made and for the publicity you have
given the mole-work methods which
were employed in the Frank case,
etc., but would further urge your
assistance ’to the extent of properly
replying to the remarkable editorial
in a recent issue of the Atlanta Con
stitution, headed ‘'Georgia’s Shame.”
Can’t you set the egotistical Clark
right, and call his attention to the
false statements which he puts in
his alleged newspaper?
And while you are about it, for
goodness’ sake trim old Jack again
for his defamatory speech at San
Francisco, in which he strives to
incite his hearers to come to Georgia
and to drive the great majority of
her citizens, and a few of her news
papers, out of the State.
We sadly need a paper here in At
lanta that would give us the news,
so that we could boycott the three
miserable sheets published here,
which do not give us the news to
which we are entitled, and for which
we pay; but unless you, or some
other fearless man, who cannot be
bought by Jew money, or lawyer
money, or Governor money, comes
to establish a real newspaper for the
common people, I cannot see that
conditions will improve.
May your zeal not be diminished
in the good cause. Keep “Georgia’s
Shame” always fresh in the minds of
the people, so that next time an al
leged Governor thinks of defeating
justice by committing an illegal act,
he will remember the present case
and withhold his hand.

NATHAN STRAUS THREATENS TO
PROSECUTE ME FOR THE
LEGAL EXECUTION OF
LEO FRANK.
Dear Sir: I see that Sig. Montag,
Haas & Co., are threatening to pros
ecute you. I think it’s the very
thing for them to do. When they
get through with it their closest
friends won’t know them. We have
already suffered to our shame, but
I declare to you this will bring
things to a close. I feel in my very
bones that the patriotic, red-biooded
sons of Georgia will put a finishing
touch to some things when this
talked-for rascally prosecution takes
place. Defy our courts, buy the so
called Governor, and then prosecute
the man who, above all others, has
made an honest plea for Georgia, her
laws and her people—this is going
beyond the limit. I speak the feel
ing of a hundred thousand true sons
of Georgia. I dare them to indict
you. If the worst must come, let it
come. We don’t intend to submit to
the Jews and a few Gentile scalawags
to run our State.

now cowering from justice. Governor Harris has
again vindicated it in his courageous determina
tion to hunt down the murderers. No means must
be spared to bring this about. While they have
their liberty the honor not only of a State, but of
the entire Nation, is at stake.
From the Boston Traveler, we learn that,
“the degradation of Georgia, which for
some time has been notorious, last night
reached its nadir when a mob of men over
powered Warden, Superintendent and guards
at the Georgia State Prison Farm and
lynched Leo Frank. And to the degree that
a humane public can rebuke the State of
Georgia by refusing to have any part of her
unholy people’s products, they will do so.
Anything made, or grown in Georgia will
bear a sinister brand and be suggestive of
PUCK’S INCENDIARY AND LIBEL
LOUS CARTOONS.
Dear Sir: You have doubtless
seen the enclosed cartoon which ap
peared in Straus’ New York mag
azine, “Puck,” and the text under
neath. I consider this cartoon
another Jew insult. The majority
of honest, conscientious citizens of
Georgia, I fully believe, have no such
sentiments as pictured upon this
Jew sheet.
Notice the other cartoons inclosed.
It is needless to say that the same
pen drew both. The question is,
“Why didn’t Nelson Greene place his
signature upon his lying cartoon?”
Because it was probably outlined to
him by “Puck’s” Jew controllers,
and did not express Greene’s real
thoughts, and he was ashamed of it.
I failed to find a signature upon
this cartoon, but being familiar with
cartoonists’ work, and thinking you
might like to know who the cartoon
ist w’as, I am taking the liberty of
writing you. Yours truly,
Ga. FRIEND.
