The Chaotic Mr. Cre^i. Washington, 1). (\, Oct. 30.—The committee ou public information, headed by Mr.. George Creel cost Uie government about $6,<>0(),000 on the fat a >>f its chaotic records, according to official reports now before Congress, which say the committee's affairs can not lie wound up for,six months because of the confusions.. Chairman Creel and other officials of the com¬ mittee are charged with gross negligence in handling the government's funds in a report bv L. K. Els worth of the council of national defense, appointed to liquidate the committee's affairs. Well, what does j he council of national defense expect from a gentleman who has become chief pub¬ licity agent for the Sinn Fein, and who must have devoted much of his time and attention in war time to preparation for that employment? Considering Creel's present connection witji de Valero and the hooligans of Cork, of whom Admiral, Sims writes so informingly, he should be relieved of all bother concerning a mere matter .of six million dollars. If these, querulous officials at Washington don't quit bothering Creel and Ryan and others of the papist and near papist, gang who spent war funds so freely, they may be cited to appear before Cardi¬ nal Gibbons, and O'Connell for discipline according to the papal code. Don't they know that a paper republic needs i newspaper man to put it on paper; and that Mr Creel's interest in the SinnT'oin relieves him from duty with the American republic? Mr. Creel is busy writing books and broadsides to show why Uncle Sam should desert his British ally and go over to the Irish ally of Germany. It is an insult to his papal monarch to disturb the gentleman in his present religious employment. But considering all that Creel did and didn't do in war lime together with what lie has been doing since isn’t lie a peach- Yes. a sixty-six hundred thousand dollar peach with a chaotic record.— The Menace. Political Buncombe. It is amusing and disgusting to watch the an¬ tics of the politicians in power and those “out and wanting in." The results of last week's State elec¬ tions, the G. O. I*, candidates made some new win •nings some phtaes and the Democrats in other phi CCS. We ear • little i i.iie party name attached to the winners, and ascribe some changes to the fact that, Americanism won over Romanism and other Foreign elements, which lends hope yet that Ameri¬ ca may be reclaimed for Americans. We rejoice that men, under the partisan name of republican, walloped the nest of Romanists in New York City, known as Tammany Democrats. We rejoice again, when an American—unafraid of the foreign hunch of Pojx'-woi-shippers and alien bluffers— styling himself republican, won out as governor of Massachusetts. Tie defied (he Roma-i Catholic hunch of anarchistic policemen of Boston and every other foreign element in his State, and won a battle for Law and Order. It matters not what name one wears, or whether he wears any, if lie stands for America First and Justice ns against the Iiiiie of Rome. Rum, Riot and Corporate Robbery, the. people should elect that man.— A’cws-Herald, Gray cite. Ark. THE COLUMBIA SENTINEL, HARLEM, GA. Alabama Preachers for Profestanism. On Sunday, Oct 2fi, twelve scholarly and force¬ ful pro-Protestant and anti-Jesuit sermons were preached in as many Birmingham pulpits alone, while a like renewal of tire Reformation took place at Montgomery, Mobile, Bessemer, Gadsden, An¬ niston. Athens, Huntsville, Tri-Cities and elsewhere throughout the State. _ A basic transformation has taken place, and henceforth Alabama pastors will, teach their con¬ gregations of the vital principles of protestant lib¬ eralism. Church-going people will hereafter re¬ ceive competent instruction in the superiority of Protestant civilization and |he free institutions which are a product of its development. Following close upon the abolition of Knights of Columbus Day by the legislature, this shows that Alabama is headed in the right direction politically as well as religiously, and that the Reformation is to be completed instead of neglected.— The Menace. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. From an Old Admirer. My Dear Mr. Watson: Here comes an old ad¬ mirer of you and the great principles that you ad¬ vocate. T am only a traveling man.

I am willing as an individual to accept your enemies as mine open and abovenoard. I sometime make a public talk irp church or Bible class. (They dub me Tom Watson.) Would to God we bad more Tom AVatsons to stand for the rock-ribbed principles of liberty, justice and love, that we profess to have hut have not. God grant that your life may he spared for many years for America and the principles for which our forefathers fought and died. Enclosed cheek for five subs. Your friend,. Georgia. R. M. BAKER.
