Buying Little Negroes! What
NeIf, Missionaries 2

Dear Sir:-I am reader of The Jeffersonian,
and have read good deal on foreign missionary
work I send you clipping and would like to
hear your views it through The JeffersOnian.
MRS. J. B. PICKETT.
Seneca, South Carolina.
The clipping sent by Mrs. Pickett gave an
account Of how the missionaries, In Africa,
are buying little negroes from their relatives,
(the parents being dead) IN order that these.
friear children qaea9t be supported, educated
and S'converted" by the missionaries.
The purchase-money for these negro chill
dren comes out of the pockets of American
congregations Is it not almost unbelievable?
But you can see the statement of the facts, in
The Christian Herald, December s, 1909,
page 1916.
The missionaries give to this buying Of ne
gro boys and girls good, deceptive name, of
course
They call it "redeeming" the children. The
nearest male kinsman of the orphan child sells
it to the missionary, "for certain amount of
money, or it's equivalent in bullocks, farm
produce or CLOTH"
Says The Christian Herald: "All over
Africa children have been redeemed by mis-
sionaries." That is to say, all Deer A fric0,
your money has been used to 6uy negro boys
and girls, who are clothed, fed, housed, and
educated at your expense!
L ne GC01t OF de7tS OF CHOUS07COS " GOH166 or
ph0ns are aqAbeeded IN this, oar home land, at
the uery time aOhen these MISSION craaed vis-
iomoq1es are 6uyimg up negro orphans In
africa, and gathering them into orphamages
and Schools Isn't it shame internal
outrage?
The Christian Herald is running a notice,
headed thus:
"WHO WILL HELP REDEEM LITTLE
DORA? ?"
This is the name given to a negro girl, in
Africa whom the missionaries wish to buy
from cher heather relatives.
Mrs Perkins, the missionary who writes to
The Christian Herald about the colored girl,
calls her, sour dear little D0ra"; and she says
that unless the Christians of this country send
her the money to buy dear little Dora, she
will have to 90 back to her own people, in the
''bush', and will be eventually married to
heather husband.
The Christian Herald earnestly supports

Sock II TO Gordon Lee!
Hon. Thomas E. Watson,
Thomson. Ga.


Dear Sir:--I have a communication from the
Hon. Gordon Lee, asking me to indorse him for
Congress again. / also noticed, in The Jeffer-
sonian, sometime ago, where you advised the
people to put questions to our Congress
members before giving support. Please let
know, through The Jeffersonian, if you@know.
any good reason why any good Jeffersonian
Democrat should not give Mr.. Lee their support,
for Congress-, another term, there are some
other good men spoken of for Congress in
district.
Wishing you success in your reform movements,
/ am Yours truly
A. W. FLORENCE.
Powder Springs, Ca, Dec. ia, 1909
The Honorable Gordon Lee is most ami
able, excellent gentleman, for whom, person
ally, have nothing but the kindest feelings
But, as a Congressman, he ought to be
ashamed to look one of his constituents in the
face and ask for his vote.
At the extra session of Congress, had the
Democrats stood by their own leader, the
Honorable Champ Clark, and acted in con-
cert with those Republican insurgents, who
had broken away from the deviltries of Can
nonism, that Infamous old scoundrel would
have been thrown to the ground and the
House of Representatives would have again
become what our forefathers had intended it
should be,-a deliberative body.
Never since the Civil War has the Demo
cratic party had such chance to unhorse the
Republicans, and to check the march of the
trusts, as it had at the beginning of the extra
session; but there were sufficient number of
Democrats who deserted their own colors and
went over to the Republicans, to perpetuate
the rule of the corrupt and voracious corpora
tons, who, had their birth in the atrocities of
class legislation.
Gordon Lee qcos one Of those deserters. If
he had been soldier en- the Confederate arnay,
and had done Just as he did at the eotra seS-
sion, he aoouzd, IN case of his subsequent cap
tire by the Confederotes, haze been COURT
the South: he deserted Georgia: he deserted
his own comrades in arms he went over to
the enemy he fired upon his own flag: he

The Mill of Circumstances
 ---and YOU

In this city. as everywhere, the Mill ot Cir cumstances is grin';ing away A hours :, day and, today. it may be grinding YOUR CREST. It may be turning of the incidents of this towns daily life into an opportunity for yo1l- into an advantage for you.
 When merchant gets caught in .'thc Mill, y and is pressed for cash, YOU benefit in the forced sacrifice of of his stocks--tFat is, YOU BENEFIT, if you keep posted what is going ''at the AIill'' by reading the ads.
 \ real estate owner gets into ':thc Mill, and sacrifices some of his property in order to get out again-pays his toll
 The owners of things automobiles. secur- ities, businesses. machinery. horses and car rages ,typcwriters office fixtures houses books pictures get into this old Mill of Cir cumstances, and out of their troubles your opportunities. They pay the toll.
 Incidentally. it's better to watch the ads, and to profit by the products of "thc Nll'' than to get caught in it yourself. Although if your turn should come. an ad will usually get you out safely.
