elect president at this time was that
it had looked the ground over very care
fully and was practically unanimous In
the decision that no better man could be
elected for the place than Mr.. Day, and
II felt that as naturalization could not
take place for months to come, and per-
haps longer. ii was unwise to allow this
great association to go along without
head The fact that no election has
taken place in the last two meetings has
caused somewhat of uncertainty among
the officers, agents and policyholders
and these were some OF the pregnant
reasons which caused Mr. Days election
to- day"
The general agents OF the company
have been lighting for the election OF
practical insurance man as the executive
head Of the organization. Mr.. Spratt was
asked why a lawyer was chosen.
1--WE elected Mr.. Day because we be-
lieve that one Of the most important
things to accomplish is to protect and
properly guard the immense amount OF
securities and money which is owned by
the Equitable" he said. I'VE believe II
is more important properly to finance
and protect the property Of the company
than any other one thing. We believe
that we can engage first class insurance
men without much difficulty, and the
fact is that from present indications we
will write during the present year Sl2o'-
600 900 70 S125. 100000 Of new business,
and. this being good business. will be
more profitable than a much larger sum
as written in years gone by, when there
was race among large companies
II has been understood that Mr.. Nor
gan was willing 10 turn his stock over
to the company for the price he PAID
for II. 5000 a share, in order TO erect
naturalization. but when Mr.. Spratt was
asked about this, he said: That is not
correct Mr. Morgan has asked Sb.OO
share. | do not known whether that Is
his bottom price or not. I do not think
Mr.. Morgan is the kind Of a man to tell
YOU what his bottom price Is. | think
however. that both Mr. Morgan and his
son will do everything In their power 20
help toward naturalization. l have the
highest opinion of both OF them and i'm
plicit confidence In them

EVERY VOTER IN QUITMAN
COUNTY FOR JOE BROWN,

Dear Sir: You came near making a
clean sweep in winning admirers
when you came to Georgetown. All
classes, the rich, the poor, the old
and young, and last but best the la
dies all were lavish in praising your
speech delivered at Georgetown on
the. evening of the 31st Mr.. w. A.
Hill, worthy County Commissioner,
took me by the hand and said he en-
dorsed every word of your speech.
Mr.. Hugo Sohloss, a retired merchant
and a leading citizen of Eufaula,
says your visit to Georgetown made
you many friends. The wisest poll
tlclan in our county and a recent
Watson convert requested me to
write You that every Joe Brown voter
in the county will vote for you for
United States Senator in the next
Senatorial election. We had a talk
with Clay County friend who says
your speech was the best ever heard
in Fort Gaines. Many old gray
haired men in the audience shed
tears; one of Clay's old landmarks
was heard to say as he wiped the
tears from his eyes when leaving the
court house: II have been cussing
Watson many years; but will never
cuss him any more"
Yours truly,

TRYING TO GET WATSON'S MAG
AZINE IN CHICAGO.
Chicago, Nov. z, 1911


Dear Sir: In trying to locate a
place at which to buy your magazine,
| inquired at twenty-seven news
stands, and found all, with the single
exception of the Post Office News
Stand, got their literature through
the Western News Company, Madison
and 5th Ave.
last called upon the manager of
the Western News Company, a Mr..
Nice, who at first assured me that he
carried Watson's, but l found they
did not, and the little news stands
did not have it.
At length he looked at me and said.
Il think Watson is making a HI of
mistake in this thing Then he
launched out into discussion of the
question of any one man fighting a
church, how unwise it was from a.
social, religious and financial view
point. Being a reporter and acouaint-
ed with men and things about Chi
cago, I let him do most Of the talk
ing and me the Sitting of what he
said.
A few questions, however, helped
him materially in his subject matter,
and the deft manner in which / piled
them brought out the fact that he
knew all about the matter and as he
talked, he rambled on to the state
ment, that he received a notice from
the publisher to the effect that no
more Watson's would be sent. I as
sured him very promptly that it must
nave been mistake, that I was Mr..
Watson's Chicago representative, and
that Mr.. Watson was very anxious to
place several thousand magazines on
the Chicago stands. And that if he
would assure me that the publisher
had sent notice that no more maya
zines would be sent, 1 would take it
up with Mr.. Watson personally and
nave the order re-instated.
To this he replied, "Well, we get
our Watsons through the Atlanta
News Company, and it was they who
stopped it," (Another evasion.)
So as the matter stands, we will
have to arrange with the Western
News Company to handle the Maya
zine, as it would be useless to can

WANTS LETTERS LIKE "NEW
EN- LAND CATHOLICS"
BARRED FROM JEFF,

Dear Sir: I am in receipt of The
Jeffersonian of Oct. 26th and have
Just read on front page an article
headed GA Letter from a New Eng
land Catholic" filed with such vile
language and abuse while setting
forth his argument supporting the
Catholic faith and doctrine. Now
while you have been so fair as to
open your columns to any and all
who would come in and meet the
charges, | for one am persuaded you
are not called upon to give place to
a letter like this. l am sorry the
good Catholic, as he would call him
self, is SO angered, and if he had
written a readable article, it's all he
Or any member of the reading pub
lie should ask of you to allow space
to be fair, but | am persuaded the
public generally would certainly
permit of your wedding such a letter
out Of your columns and still allow
you to be fair and just.
Now pardon me for these suggest
ions, but there are two sides to the
case. The reading public would feel
they are entitled to some considera-
ton; and I am sure if you ignore all
such letters that for lack Of argument
have to cuss a little you will be ex-
cused.
know that you do not use such
language and I wouldn't allow any
others to do so in the columns of our
paper. Maybe you have used this one
article as sample and will not have
to exhibit any more to convince the
reading public the class you have
to combat with for the establishment
Of true principles, right living and
just laws. Yours respectfully,
G. A. DODD.

A PROTEsTANT's REPLY.

Dear Sir: Will you let me say a
few words through The Jeffersonian,
to Charles Jones Budlong?
First thing, Mr.. Budlong, l want to
say, combining Mr.. Watson's writings
with your letter, we, The Jefrer-
sOnian, the Protestant people in
these United States, will believe you
to be a good Roman Catholic; first
because we believe every word Mr..
Watson has written concerning your
creed; second, because you used the
word damned, three times in your
letter, to win; third, because you
used the word hell three times;
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1911-11-23

fourth, because you used the word
lies, five times. We believe you to
be a good Catholic, because you use
just such language as that; then we
believe it because we can site you to
not less than half a dozen falsehoods
in your letter. w. II. JONES.

OTHER VIEW OF FOREIGN
MISSIONS.


II Gear Sir: If you will kindly allow
a little space in your valuable
& }er, I will endeavor to give the
u olic my views on the foreign mis-
u n question.
u would seem that there is a very
u Oh sophisticated sentiment run
Il lg in the press these days, in re-
= I'd to the foreign mission traffic.
h think that Mr.. Watson is
Il neWhat right in his views on that
4 3ject, and that he should not have
j much adverse criticism upon his
WIS.
Mr. Watson, We must admit, is a
Ery deep-thoughted man, and de-
4 yes some consideration, it matters
t what subject he may choose to
;sect.
Mr.. Watson knows whereof he
9aks when he says the foreign
)Ve as it is carried on, should be
lscouraged.
When we take into consideration
G fact that the United States covers
CHI vast scope Of territory, and
at it contains many large and
|nsely populated cities where God
0ws missionary work is NEEDED
owe all things, then thee is no
JASON why we should no concur in
lie attack promulgated by Mr.. Wat
IN.
There is an old traditional teach
ID, which tells us that charity be-
rs at home. That being the case,
would look as if Mr.. Watson is not
waiting from the mark very widely.
1T has been the experience Of the
ritter to have lived in a city of
Dme half million population, for
)me nine years or more. 1t has
zen my personal experience, to have
zen held up many many times
n aims, by objects OF charity.
hat alone is sufficient evidence Of
le need of home missions instead of
lie foreign. Just a casual observer
IN loiter down the streets Of one
our large cities, and can see the
Improvement which would be afford
/, if they would only apply at home,
le fabulous sums, which are sent
broad under the pretense ofocnvert-
g heathens. 1t has also been
lie experience of the writer to have
cen in foreign lands and to have
zen the relative needs of the diff
rent Hemispheres, and I am reluc-
mt to say that missions are needed
ore at home than in the countries
hich abound in ASiatic Celestials.
In the first place the Asiatics are
'solutely void of gratitude; and it
alters not what you do for them,
ey i'll appreciate your acts of char
T. While 1 do not say that is the
Sc in every juncture, it is the gener-
elimination of our religious char
able organizations. II cannot bat

exception: He is not drastic enough
in his attacks. Respectfully yours,
