Additional Letters From the People
GENERAL A. J. WEST AND HIS
CUT-THROAT FRIENDS.
A State of Washington friend
sends me the following eulogy on
my friend General West:
Georgian Here Says Lynching is
All Right.
“You can rely on Georgia to carry
out the law.”
This was the comment of General
Andrew J. West, formerly quarter
master of the state in which Leo
Frank was recently lynched by a
mob, in speaking at the New Wash
ington hotel of the hanging.
General West said he was satis
fied the lynching was justified.
He was the guest Friday of Dr.
Hamilcar Zoepffel, the Seattle Ger
man consul. .
God Forbid!
Out of courtesy to the state of
Washington, where even the state is
not permitted to kill human beings
and capital punishment is no more,
Gen. Andrew J. West of Atlanta,
State of Lynch Rule, could have well
spared his eulogy of the Leo Frank
murderers until he got back home
among his cut-throat friends. In an
interview in Seattle, West said the
Frank murderers carried out the
law instead of violating it.
He also said Seattle resembled
Atlanta in many 'ways.
God forbid that Seattle should re
semble it in its barbaric lust for
human blood.”
I juc«te from the above that the
remarks of General West are not
approved on the Pacific slope, where
the vigilantes used to hang horse
thieves and cattle rustlers.
Come on home, General. You’re
cut-throat friends are afraid they’ll
get a mob after you, if you remain
out there among the Mollycoddles.
T. E. W.’s TRIAL WILL COME I P
IN NOV EMBER.
Dear Sir: God help your old soul.
You are the grandest hero of the
age. I hope you will live a thousand
years and bless the world with your
wisdom. When the news that that
horrid Jew’s neck wrns broke was
wafted over the wires, a million
hearts of the best people in the land
swelled with emotion and said thank
God the blood of that innocent child
has been avenged. If you had not
espoused the cause of justice by
upholding the majesty of the courts
against this mob of Atlanta Dailies,
that Benedict Arnold renegade would
have pardoned that demon, and hied
him away at night as they did before.
Go on. God bless you, telling them
the truth as no ether man can do.
Ninety per cent of the best people
endorse you, notwithstanding the
Atlanta Chamber of Commerce to
the contrary.
The people of Georgia are as good
and law abiding as any state in the
union and if the same thing had oc
curred in the other states, they would
not have waited two whole years be
fore acting.
I heard a yankee say that rape
was committed in his town by a
negro, and that the next day a mob
arose and killed and burned out a
whole district and that the papers
never mentioned it. If it had occur
red in the South, the northern papers
would have howled a month about it.
Some body has said that the world
needs every man; but not much, but
this cannot apply to you, for if you
were gone, I would say God have
mercy on us for the common people
would have no one t ohold up their
cause and fight their battles.
The people can never repay you for
the grand life you have lived in be
ing the hero and always fighting for
the pest people.
Your write-up on Socialism and
Catholicism is enough to immortal
ise you and cause your name to live
until this old world is burned up.
When you are gone, the people ought
to build a monument over you that
THE JEFFERSONIAN
would last a thousand years.
I see your trial is to come up in
November. If you do not want to go
to trial, have Cardinal Gibbons sup
poened as a witness and he will have
it put off, for he would rather serve
six months in hell than to go on the
stand one hour before you. No sir,
old Gibbons will never give you a lick
at him. He would not do it for all
the money of the Rothchilds.
I have loved and admired you for
twenty years. I was a stockholder
in your daily and I buy and read
your paper every week. God bless
you with a long life of usefulness.
Yours, etc.,
C. B. SEWELL.
WHAT ARE WE MEN TO DO,
WITHOUT COATS AND
BREECHES?
Farr-Seigler Clothing Co.,
Augusta, Ga.
Gentlemen:
We have yours of the 7th, and note
contents.
In reply we want to say that on the
day that Leo Frank was murdered in
Georgia, we made up our minds that
we wanted to do no business in a
state where the officers of the law
could condone such crimes.
We will sell no goods nor buy any
goods from any business concerns in
the state of Georgia.
That is the position we have de
cided to take, and we are going to
stick to it.
Yours very truly,
CAMBRIDGE TAILORING CO.
(Comment.)
Here is a situation that I view with
alarm. If our Georgia tailors can’t
get the cloth, how are they to fit our
manly chests with new coats, and
our graceful legs with new breeches?

A CHEERING VOICE FROM
NORTH LOUISIANA.
Dear Friend: As one of your old
standbyes, I am writing you a few
lines to let you know that all your
north Louisiana friends are still
with you to a man, and there are
lots of them here, as your subsreip
tion list will show. Your stand in
the Frank case has made you many
friends, everybody in this country
believes Frank was guilty, as the
court found. Don’t see how any
sane man could see it any other
way.
The hit dog is the one that howls,
that is why the Jews and their hired
men holler when you strike with that
able pen. Just keep hitting so we
can soon know who all of them are.
With best wishes from one who has
always read your writings, and who
has hanging in his house an enlarged
photograph of T. E. W. face out and
expect it to hang there as long as I
shall be permitted to live.
Your friend,
J. L. ANDERSON.

ALL GEORGIANS BELIEVE IN
FAIR PLAY FOR JEWS AND
GENTILES.
Dear Sir: As I have not seen any
thing from this community. I
thought I would say a few words.
You may rest assured that at least
90 per cent of our people are with
you in nur stand taken in the Frank
case. We believe in fair play for
Jew’ and Gentile, for rich and poor.
There are a few who say that Tom
is a crank and extremest, but they
wili de?' nr the co itents of the Jef
fersonian just as soon as they can
borrow one from their neighbors.
We are a law abiding people, detest
and denounce the course taken by
the ex-governor of Georgia. We are
truly glad that there is one news
paper in the state with manhood and
courage enough to tell the truth in
the face of so great opposition. May
you live long and keep up the fight
against rotten government and Jew
money. We are with you to the fin
ish, Yours truly,
J. M. PARKER.
