the reformers together. My opinion
is that direct legislation is the
course to be pursued. If a man or
party opposes the Initiative and
Referendum, it would be hard for
them to make me believe they were
in favor of reform.
If we should call convention, in
viting all the parties that believe in
reform to send delegates, and if they
could agree on Dircct Legislation,
think that would be sufficient at
present.
1t certainly is fact that we will
have to have the reins of the Govern
ment before we can do anything. If
Thomas Jefferson were resurrected
and made President, he could not do
anything with the present House and
Senate.
We must teach the people what the
Initiative and Referendum means. |
honestly believe that not one in ten
of the old party paper readers can
tell the meaning of such words as
these and imperative Mandate"
In my opinion, the voter will have
to be educated, and as we have but
few reform papers, | think it would
be a good idea to have Direct Legis-
lation explained in pamphlet form.
| would be willing to buy pamphlets
to supply every voter ON my Tom
Watson mail route, and deliver them
in person, and request each person
to read and study the question.
If all hands and the cook will pull
together for the amendment Of the
Constitution so as to give us Direct
Legislation we could then vote for
what we want, and against what we
don't want, and each party could
bring up it's pet plank or planks, and
have them voted on their own merits.
Wishing you great success, | am

GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP OF
RAILROADS.
Interstate, W. Va.

lfVClSGdG0s W. d.
Dear Mr. Watson: Your princi-
Piles are right and practicable, but
1T seems that the people will never
wake up until robbed Of their rights,
and then resort to the dagger, torch
and bomb.
In my Judgment the government
ownership of railroads is the one
thing needed as the basis for gen
eral reform. Until they are taken
out of private hands, and freight
rates made equal to all, as are post
age rates, there will be robbery, poor
service, and railroad influence will
continue to corrupt our courts and
legislative bodies.
Unless there is tremendous popu-
lar demand, nothing in the way of
relief will be obtained from our ma
tlonal lawmakers. The pledge which
they owe to the people is subordinate
to that which they owe the Interests.
The Interests dictated their nominal
tons and elected them, and glance
at the personnel of the Taft cabinet
Is conclusive proof that the Inter
ests are to be we'll served.
The recent corner in wheat, and it's
resultant robbery of both producer
and consumer, should arouse the
whole nation to the evils of the sys-
tenn, and the people should remember
that the systems chief instrument is
the privately owned railroads.
hope you will continue the fight.
-Four years of Taft will, think, thor
oughly. convince the voters that for
years they have been only the ignor-
ant, but willing, dupes of those who
now have them at their mercy, and
WILL make "a mighty effort to free
themselves from the clutches of
privilege.
Sincerely yours,
n n AHL;rsnn

up of world conditions. Everywhere
there is crime, poverty, graft, dis
honesty, nameless evils and injustice;
debauchery, selfs'hness, religious, So
cial, civil and political unrest and
indicision and moral bankruptcy.
"Wise men shaking their heads.
There are other conditions prevalent
that Mr.. Watson does not catalog, but
no doubt sees. It begins to look as IL
the whole fabric Of our government
and civilization were about to go to
pieces, doesn't at?
What's the cause? Is there a
remedy? Is the remedy LIN Socialism
or Populism? Can either of the old
parties furnish the salve that could
cure our wounds?
But these hideous conditions pre-
vail all over the world-not only in
these United States of ours, but,
look where we will, we find the same
conditions-even to the wise men Of
other countries likewise shaking their
heads!
Going, going, going to pieces.
It begins to look as if the civiliza-
tions of ages are about to tumble
about our ears-a seeming that grows
more real every year.
The remedy? Bear with me just
a little while I touch on an unpopu-
lar topic:
just before Christ's crucifxion,
while preparing his disciples for fu-
ture events, he said: 81 am going to
prepare "a place for you, and if I
go and prepare place for you |
am coming again. John IA: 2-3.
And his disci plies came to him pri-
vately saying, What will be the sign
of thy presence, and of the consum-
nation of the age?" Matt. 24:3,
Mark 10: 4, Luke 21:7.
In answer to these inquiries Christ
then told his disciples what "signs"
would precede that momentous event
when He should leone again.
Mr.. Watson's catalog of universal
upheaval is but an epitome of world
events chronicled daily in the press
for good many years past. The
daily press goes into detail Mr..
Watson condenses. But take notice
that the daily press details and Mr..
Watson S epitome are a publication
of those "signs" chronicled In Mat
thew, Mark and Luke. The daily
happenings of the world are the full
fillment of our Lord prophecy,
And when these things come to
pass, we may know it is near, at the
very doors"
Go over the Jeffersonians for the
past several weeks, then, while fresh
IN mind, get out your testaments and
read the Gospel chapters indicated
above-Just to see where we stand.
In the face of such a stupendous
event as the return of Christ to earth
with it's contingent circumstances, is
