Further Features of the Rosser-Slaton-Haas and John Grant Gang.
DOSSIER is the lawyer who appeared on
•'‘.the scene as Loo Frank s lawyer, before
anybody had accused the Jew of the murder
of the little factory girl.
At that time somebody was framing up a
case against the night-watch. Newt Lee.
The n: (es found near the corpse accused
the night-watch, and described his physical
make.
The great Rosser blundered into proving,
that, at the time the notes were written, Jim
Conley had never seen Newt Lee, and did
not know that Newt was tall, slim and black,
as the notes said he was.
Frank of course knew it, because* Frank
had employed him, instructed him in his du
ties and turned over the keys to him every
evening, during the three weeks that Newt
had been on duty.
Rosser was the lawyer who was afraid to
cross-examine these eleven white women who
swore to Frank's lascivious character.
Rcsser is the liar who wrote to the North
ern papers about Frank’s spotless private
life.
Rosser is the man who dictated, in his of
five, the perjured affidavit of Rev. C. B.
Ragsdale, for which the Man in the Moon
paid Ragsdale S2OO.
Rosser is the man who took a governor
elect into his firm, a few days after the rich
Jews had employed Rosser to defend Leo
Frank.
Rosser is the man who hounded L. S. Roan
with reporters, detectives<and lawyers, while
Georgia Girls Siitli Out of file School
Dear Sir: Please announce In your papei
that there are no more vacancies ror students at
the Georgia Normal College at Milledgeville, Ga.
The doors of the college must toe closed to future
applicants this fall because of lack of more room.
I enclose Circular letter which explains • itself.
The college has already had to refuse hun
dreds of applications in all parts of the state*
and this public announcement is made to save
unnecessary correspondence and disappointments
The college will open September 14.
Thanking you for giving this matter publici
ty in your county, I am
Very truly yours,
M. M. PARKS.
President Parks is one of the best of edu
cators; his school is a model.
The State founded it for the purpose of
helping girls, over 14 years of age, to equip
themselves for practical life.
Not half the applicants this year could be
received; the capacity of the college had
been reached.
To hundreds of Georgia girls. President
Parks had to write refusals which carried
sadness to many a young soul, tears to many
bright eyes.
Suppose that the churches should turn into
our Georgia schools and colleges the money
they are sending to educate foreign children
in foreign countries!
Thomson, Ga., Thursday, September 30, 1915
Roan was slowly dying a most agonizing
death in Massachusetts.
I am informed that Dr. Beveridge spoke
indignantly at the way the sufferer was be
ing pestered and tortured about the Frank
case, and that Dr. Beveridge said 7m 7md
heard Judge Roan repcatedl y refuse to ex
press any doubts about Frank's guilt.
Rosser is the man who tried to hire Sen
ator James to act a part in the farce that
was to be played before Partner Slaton, in
that application for a commutation of sen
tence.
It was Rosser who virtually told the Ken
tucky Senator that Slaton would not allow
his own client to hang.
It was Rosser who slunk up the back street
and footed it to Slaton’s house, to hold a
mid night 'juggle on the Frank case, a few'
hours after the Prison Commission had
thrown a scare into the Frank farce.
It is Rosser who now publishes a card
which dees not deny any of these things and
which does not even deny that he was in
Augusta recently, but which decs deny that
he was there'/or the purpose, of reloading
John Grant's little jackass-
All right, let it go; if the little burro is
so docile and well-trained, that he goes to
Atlanta to get loaded, I have no objection.
Does John Grant deny that he hired the
Hessian, and furnished the letters and tele
grams of his rascally brother-in-law 7 ?
Does John Grant deny that the proofs of
the article were sent to him for correction?
Wouldn’t it be a God-send to ambitious
poor boys and girls; and would it not be
a glorious thing for the future?
What sort of a craze is it that gives to
Chinese children what we deny to our own?
What sense is there in contending that
Christ meant we must finance the teaching
of grammar, rhetoric, music, sewing and
gainful occupations to the heathen?
Go preach the Gospel to every living crea
ture; we can do that.
We would have done that long ago, if the
Foreign Missionaries had not go so pam
pered that they stopped going, and went to
stopping, in fine houses, at elegant stations
where the heathen had to do the going, and
the missionary stood in the same tracks,
year by year, begetting children at SIOO per,
and converting nobody to speak of.
But we haven’t got money enough to teach
every living creature how to weave, make
shoes, fine furniture, embroidery, etc.
We haven’t got money enough to teach
every living creature how to conjugate verbs,
punctuate letters, do sums in arithmetic, and
learn how to. give medicine.
It’s a physical and financial impossibility.
Besides, that sort of thing is not the evan
gelical work intended by the Bible, done by
the Apostles, and practised by the churches
for seventeen hundred years.
This new system indicts the old!
Does John Grant deny that he had those
proofs in Atlanta five days before the attack
on me was published ?
Does John Gram deny that he carefully
compared the proofs with the data Slatcir
had furnished nim?
Does John Grant deny that he Roasted to
his son and to others, that his attack on me
'Would "smash" mr?
Does John Grant deny that lie caused to
be ‘'retained'' an Atlanta lawyer, a friend
of mine, to work up a Cobb County mass
meeting, whose general purpose should be to
pare the way for Slaton s return, to Georgia?
Does John Grant deny that Morris Bran
don quit the firm of Rcsser & Slaton/when
he saw what those two crooks were up to,
in the Frank case?
Does Rosser deny it?
Will Rosser deny that his partner, Bran
don. believed Frank to be guilty, and that
ex-Congressman Howard held the same
opinion ?
In the Chattanooga Times, owned by
Adolph Ochs, I not only find the infamous
letter of—- “Yours to honor,
W. P. PONDER, M. I).
“Box 27. Forsyth. Ga.,"
but also the following:
A former adherent of Tom Watson charges
glaring inconsistency in Watson’s present atti
tude toward the fairness of the Frank trial, with
the opinion he expressed in a private conversa
tion while the trail was in progress. This man
(continued on page five.)
The new system virtually says that Paul
an.d Barnabas, Peter and ’James and John
did not kqow what Christ meant!
Bishop Candler knows; but Timothy
didn’t.
Dr. William Smith knows; but Mark
didn't.
We lost 1,700 years by not knowing that
the way to Christianize a heathen was to
dose his insides with a pill, and rub his head
with a school-book.
My! What smart men Warren Candler
and William Smith are, to be sure.
Every Christian nation was won from pa
ganism by sermons.
The preaching of the Word gained con
tinental Europe, and gained England, Scot
land, Ireland.
Show me the people that was ever con
verted to Christ by pedagogues, surgeons,
dentists, physicians, trained nurses and sci
entific experts!
You can’t do it! And you never will be
able to do it.
I see by the Columbus papers that my
amiable friend, Bishop Candler, gave me
a rap because I said that the Methodist
Board had sent doctors to Persia.
Yes, I made a little slip on that; it was
the Presbyterian Board which did it.
The newspaper clip had got misplaced
