C. M. THOMPSON’S
WEEKLY LETTER
In reading the papers of to-day we
ask* ourselves the question in a decla
rative way. Mer Rouge and Bastrop
art thou a Sodom and Gomorro?
~ If we read the truth we are made to
la/lii ve that you have lain Mormonism
in the shade. You have your wives of
modern day your slaves and concubines
or medevial and ancient history.
Your masked demon Catholicism is
making a bold strike when they hid
away Daniels and Richards that blame
might rest upon a clan of vigilance,
law and order.
The dark ages scores crimes and cru
elties but it took Mer Rouge and Bas
trop to outstrip in low down cussedness,
atrocities and intrigue sown broadcast
by a body of pretenders at religion.
This great mogul, high-cock-a-lorem.
who sits at ease in his mansion grand
and orders his henchmen at will and
who stops' not at any mean which is
justify by the end.
They have met an avalenche for law
and order which cuts them to the core,
(therefore to offset or turn the tide of
tlie current they must resort to a dia
bolical mean in hopes of a desirable
end.
-•Sodom and Gomorro wanted no law
nor order. Men sought to satisfy
t toemselvesj in any manner they could
conceive.
Mer Rouge and Bastrop had her gam
bling den and her places of debauchery
and yet there were a few here who
spoke out for law as Abraham and Lot
t>f old.
Those who spake out now must bear
the brunt of persecution and prosecu
tion which seems to be abetted and
encouraged by a religious body hydra
lieaded, with tanticles like the octopus
reaching to every point of the compass
which would draw into its great man or
hell everything with which it would
pome in contact.
This hydra-headed octopus sees a loss
unless' a deathlike blow is dealt out
speedily and quickly against on organ
ization whose whole aim is law and or
der. Some organizations prosper great
er while the people are ignorant. That
Is why some keep the bible from the
common people.
I remember the story I guess he was
a protestant who become disgusted with
lift' in Mer Rouge, and caught a lion
and two wild cats and a rattlesnake and
rode the lion for a better clime. His
drink was corbolic acid, colored with
iodlpe; he yised moth balls to take the
taste out of liis mouth of this soft
drink. If you have such men on the
(run wlmt must be the depraved con
dition of those behind.
That is the kind of men and women
ignorance and this hydra-headed octo
pus is filling this sunny land of ours.
So soon'as Americans stand together
as in 1776 that soon will this great mo
gul monster fail in his attempts to
spfit and weaken us.
In Solomon’s day he met with many
petty organizations of secret societies
which tended to teach other than the
true religion. So he got himself busy
and kept all lie could of these societies
und added such other lessons as would
lead man nearer to His God.
That society holds good to this day
because there is true worth and merit
In it. One great aim is education,
while this opposing force abets an
dotes on ignorance and keeps the book
from the people.
Ls this force at work in you. Mer
Ttougo and Bastrop. O Sodom and Oo
morro, I fear for you: let your good
men do like Lot and leave the hydra
headed monster to eat of his own flesh
and blood and go to a home prepared
for such. C. M. T.
