that aroused three millions of people to
take up arms, to fight for independence and
finally to subdue the British ministry.
Washington did not "distrust"
Paine, but on the contrary Washington
wrote him letters of the very highest COM
mendation relative to Common Sense
Washington al ordered Paine's pamphlets,
known as '"rhe Crisis" read at the head OF
every regiment in the Colonial army. Fol-
lowing this, Washington wrote Paine let
ter, which, as the late Moncure ID. Conway
says, ought to be engraved upon the tomb
stone fboth. have not time to elaborate
ly describe the trip that Thomas Paine
made to France for money, and of being
hauled from Boston to Philadelphia by OK
teams to get ship, or of the $500 he gave
his entire salary, to keep the soldiers OF
Washington from starvation.
Third-Paine was not corset maker"
For more than one hundred years vice
and ignorance has poured 1t villification
against this great and grand apostle of hu
man liberty, aye, Liberty, word without
which all other words are vain. This man,
Lewis, like one Roosevelt, has shown him
self to be an ignoramus relative to Thomas
Paine. When both of these men shall be
laid to rest in the quiet stream of forgetful-
ness, their writings out of print, their
names unspoken, the name of Thomas
Paine, he whom they have assailed, will
shine on and on to the downtrodden and
oppressed forever

CINCINNATI CLUB NO. 2
President George o. Roberts of the Buck

his Successful Labors In
the Cause.
Dennison, Ohio, Oct. 1s, E. M. 3Os


While on trip to the Queen City ON
Wednesday. Oct. 14th last, called upon
several of the members of the Buckeye Sec
ular Union, and in the evening of the same
day we held a called meeting in the Office
of DR.. j. B. Wilson, on East Fourth Street.
The object of the meeting was to devise the
means of organizing Secular Club under
the auspices of the Secular Union.
The meeting was enthusiastic. Upon mo-
ton duly carried, Dr. C. N. Bradford was
elected temporary chairman. After thank
ing those present for attending the meeting,
he stated the object in view and asked those
present for an expression of an opinion.
On the motion of DR.. Wilson, 1t was unan
imously decided to organize the Secular
Club, which was done. =.
Chairman Bradford now called for an
election of officers, which resulted as fol-
lCws:-
President-Dr. w. P. Murray, 429 Race
Street, Cincinnati, Ohio.
ce-President-Dr. ]. B. Wilson, 204
East Fourth st. Cincinnati, Ohio.
Secretary-Dr C. N. Bradford 429 Race
St., Cincinnati, Ohio.
Treasurer-Mrs. Mamie H. Bradford.
After considerable of discussion con-
corning suitable name to give the Club,
it was agreed that it should be known as
Cincinnati Club, No. 2, of the Buckeye
Secular Union"
The subject of bylaws was considered,
and on motion it was decided to follow the
Constitution and Bylaws of the Buckeye
Secular Uuion, with the exception that only
one vice-president should be had instead
of two.
President George o. Roberts then an
nounced that until the next annual session
of the B. s. u, all clubs enrolling new
members should divide the membership fee
equally between the State organization and
the local body, one half being RENTED to
Miss Lawrence, Secretary of the B. s. u.
and the other half going into the local
treasury for the use of the local club.
Great enthusiasm was manifested, and
all who attended the meeting were conf
dent that the club would be successful in
adding many new members and that the
social features of the clpb would be var
led and enjoyable. The meeting was de-
cidedly pleasant and harmonious The
time passed only too quickly. At the close

THOMAS PAINE
Orthodox CaIumniators of the Revolutionary
Hero Given Setback.
(By B. o. Fenton.)


Upon a recent occasion l was accosted
by a Roman Catholic neighbor of mine, who
said:
rs there an infidel writer by the name of
Alfred Henry Lewis?"
Not that ever heard Of" replied, but
if he was one of the leading men l would
quite likely have heard of him. Why did
you make such an inquiry"
Because he is the only writer l ever
read after who makes mention of Thomas
Paine
well, If he has made any false state
ments / would also know that, for | have
made a critical study of Thomas Paine for
81 years."
The discussion ran along in this manner
until l discovered that the statements re-
ferred to appeared in the Metropolitan Mag
azine for October, 1907, and is as follows:
when Franklin sent over Thomas Paine
from England to write his pamphlets, JEFF
ferson took him to his BOSOM while such
as Adams and Hamilton hated, and Wash
ington distrusted the Thetford corset
maker"
Without seeming to beg the question,
there are three lies in that brief statement.
First-Frankln did not send Paine over
to write any pamphlets, but Franklin ad-
vised him to come and gave him letter of
introduction to his nephew. Thomas Paine
surprised Franklin by sending to him the
first copy Of Common Sense, pamphlet

P. M. Gen. Mayer Announces An
Agreement With Great Britain
For Letter Rate of Two Cents.
BECOMES EFFECTIVE OCT 1,
Believed Reduction Will Result in In
creased Receipts--Will be Boom
:. To Adopted English Citizens.

Washington, Juns 3.-Postmaster Gem
eral Meyer announced today that an
agreement had been reached with the
British government providing for letter
postage of two cents an ounce between
the United States and Great Britain
and ireland, to become operative Octo-
British postmaster general, sydney
Baxton, was making a like announce
ment to the house of commons today.
The matter of penny postage" as 1t is
called In England, has been under con-
sideration for some time and as far
back as last July President Roosevelt
approved Mr.. Meyers course in urging
restricted union with England"
on Oct. |. 1907, the Universal Postal
union, which governs the international
postal transactions of the various
civilized countries, reduced the rate
of letters postage from five cents a
half ounce fiat, to five cents for the
first ounce and three cents for each
additional ounce. which is the present
rate between the United States and
Great Britain with which we have di-
rect steamship communication, Dut on
mail to which we have to pay additional
charge to countries through which II
passes i'm transit. Under the articles of
the universal union, however any two
states can form restricted union. Elk
amples OF restricted unions are those
now existing which permits a two cent
an ounce letter rate between the United
States and Cuba. the United States and
Panama and the United States and
Canada.
Postmaster General Meyer believes
that this reduction in the rate of post
age to the United Kingdom ultimately
viii result in an increase in receipts
because IL has always been found that
reduction of the letter rate resulted
finally I'm increasing the revenue. He
Is also OF the opinion that lower post
age will lead to freer commercial In
tercourse.

ing their sales in England and must
