that primary concern the autocratic
rulers of Europe.

takable terms the newspapers, both
daily and weekly, that advocate such

freedom loving people of the Com-

AND THIS DEALER HAD TO STOP,
WHEN THE PRIEST TOLD
HIM TO!
Dear Sir: I am enclosing one
dollar. Please send me your Beacon
Light of Freedom (The Jeffersonian)
for a period of one year. The local
dealer from whim I have been ob
taining at weekly has been inter
viewed by .the “Howly Daddy”—so I
•son advise#—with the result that the
Truth is no longer available from
that source.
I am one of the millions of young
men of this country who have
'‘volunteered” to have their names
■placed on “These rolls of honor” in
order to escape a prison sentence,
and your paper Is my greatest con
solation in this time when the press
under the Wilson Gag is so free and
devoid of all truth.
May God sustain you in your hoble
and fearless stand for the preserva
tion of American liberties.
Very sincerely,
Tff. C. A TELEGRAPH MAN.

Dear Sir: I see by all the dailies
that the citizens of Georgia are de
nied a place of meeting in the towns
and cities. lam 78 years old and I
’have not seen the righteous forsaken
nor his seed begging bread. I own
a life time interest in 100 acres of
Jand here and I am tendering the.
whole 100 acres to the citizens of
Georgia to meet and discuss the is
sues of the day, which I consider all
importan to arouse the people to bet
ter legislation. You are no stranger
to me, and I have known you since
your childhood, and your family be
fore you. My father’s house was
often a home for Bob Toombs, Ranse
Wright and Alex Stephens. I am
well acquainted with their views 6f
legislation and consider any man
who is their follower right. They
have my sympathy and I feel that I
am doing what God would have me do
in tendering to you a meeting place.
We are 12 miles from Macon in
Houston County. Trains stop here
12:05 a. m. going west and 9 a. m
going east. Good roads from every
where. May God bless and guide
you.
