| When left the observatory TO take tn
journey out into the highways and by
ways of this woolly wild world of ours
as it is commonly known, had object
in view of greater import than simply II
search for lost mines or hidden treasure
1t was to see how other people get aIon!
in the awful battle of life and at the SAM
time trace up the genealogy Of the pre-
histories of the South, and ascertain wha
become of them and what disposition wa
made of the children.
After q tinle of great research and SOM
considerable outlay of brain tissue and |
few Mexican dollars, counting wear ant
tear of horse flesh as naught, am enabled
to throw more light upon the early PEG
Piles of the dark and dreary past OF thi'
continent than any other professor wht
has undertaken such a work single.handee
and of like means. In this | have beer
assisted by my powerful xxx ray pocke
searchlight, which penetrates the dimmes
past as well as the brightest future.
am now prepared to show that there
was a people on this part OF the NORTH
American continent before the time Of the
Jews or anybody else Of that date ano
whose history antedates theirs.
The Jewish history, as you know, is
generally accepted as the oldest written
history Of peoples simply because they
scooped all other historians by beginning
at Adam when they should have confined
themselves to current facts and events OF
the times, instead of endeavoring to estab
lish their identity through an imaginary
Adam, or first man, aud lay him liable
for their origin and all their sins. They
had to put the blame of their origin on
somebody, and so they fell way back on
poor Adam and thereby got all the credit
Of being the !lneal descendants Of the
original very first man, which gave them
precedence over all others as the +. +. Els,
or the first families of the earth, through
priority of discovery and location.
But there is a great gap between Adam
and the Jews which the Jewish invcstiga-
tors and historians falled to properly I'LL
up, either through lack Of ingenuity or
lack of knowledge. The authenticity OF
their earlier historical writings falls down
to the level Of an ordinary romance when
they come to send Cain, the very first
child born. off into the land Of Nod to
get him wife. That was an awful mis-
take or oversight, and has cost the theo-
logical world vast amount of worry. Ii
they had made him to marry his sister 5
daughter or the daughter of his fathers
sheep herder, or any body but that strange
girl POSSIBLY black) away off in the IN
explored land of Nod, We all could have
died happy ID the belief that the history
or the first family and the families follow
ing clear On down were all right, and the
family register could have been duly and
solemnlv sworn to. But as it is, that little
love episode Of Gains has upset the whole
theory of the birth and rise of the Adamic
family and left the world in doubt, for If
there were Others at that time besides the
little household of Adam and Eve, then
of course there was yet show for more,
and | have found where some Of them
were and have the proof in the works
they left behind, and which l will give to
you little further on.
But secondly, to more clearly bring the
students of the Observatory up TO the reas
oning point where they will be enabled
to do little thinking of their own and
not depend too much upon their professor.
| will simply remind them that they
should not rely too much upon Jewish
history for guide, but should study out
and follow up any side trails that might
throw light upon the notions of once act
i've people that have joined the unknown
syndicate simply because they left US no
written history.
The Jews, you should remember, are
not themselves very ancient people by
any means. We never hear much OF
them until about the time coin money
was introduced as circulating medium
Egypt was settled long before the land of
Canaan, and the Prelistorics had it long
before that. The land of the Nile as u
populous and rich country, full of cities
with pyramids, temples of worship ana
temples of arts and letters, while Abra-
ham, Isaac and Jacob were yet wandering
around in tents and feeding their flocks
upon the Grampian hills of the Eupbrates.
But while the Jews are known to he
great historical contortionists, we must
give them credit for having thus far han
died all the money of the world without
the loss of dollar, and that, too, without
STOPPING to embrace the science of physi-
cal culture. 1t would seem that they
soured on work during their Egyptian
bondage land nobody blames them), and
have never taken it up with any great dis.
play of energy since. But by the CON-
bined exertions of their handy pen and
fertile brain they have managed to keep
their heads well above water ever since
the day they forded the Red Sea-
TO further strengthen my argument
against the common theory of the early
all human creation sprang
from one solitary and lone couple
we must not overlook the moderately
reasonable point that the same power that
could create one man possessed the power
to create others. Hence we see different
kinds of people inhabiting different kinds
of countries, to which they are constitu
tionally adapted, just the same as other
animals are constructed to correspond
with the climate, natural products, ETC.,
of the countries in which they live and in
which no doubt they were created. A man
Of South Africa, where he can 90 in his
bare feet and bare body the year round,
would not have lived over twenty -four
hours if he bad been created in Alaska !;
and man of Lapland would burn up in q
day IT he we're to see the daylight 6rst un-
der the scorchlng suns Of darkest Africa.
So you see there is real good argument
to be found 10 favor of different human
creations, and that there were various diff
Ferent Adans, or 6yst men, in different
parts of the world 1T or about the same
