Mo Injustice 10 Jesuit White

a FRIEND writes to me that a certain
~ man, temporarily staying in a Georgia
town, is denouncing, as utterly false, my
statement about the Jesuit whom President
Taft made Chief Justice of the United States.
If [ were inclined to publish falsehoods
about public men, I could not afford 1t. Grim
inal warrants and civil suits for damages
could too easily be used, in such cases.
In the Who's Who IN america, as we'll as
in the Congressional Directory, Edward
White, Chief Justice of the U. S. arrote has
oaom biography. BY reference to the highest
and best evidence, it can easily be ascertained
that everything have published about this
Jesuit is true.
There is one gruesome detail in his record
that most editors will remember:
After he was appointed by Cleveland to be
Associate Justice of the T. S. Supreme Court,
he swung on to his place in the Senate until
he could, By has cote, make it certain that he
would pocket has share Of the Sugar Bounty,
of $1O,OOO,O00.
He was one of the very few Infamous
Southern Congressman who ever prostituted
himself BY VOTING THE PEOPLES
MONEY INTO HIS OWN PURSE.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1911-11-02

He was jumped over Harlan's head, by Taft,
to make decisions in the Trust cases that would
be god-send to these rich malefactors; and
he lost no time in doing what was expected
of him.
IF Taft would reveal the agencies that
compelled him to elevate this Jesuit to the
highest judicial office, there would be a ire
mendous outburst of popular Indignation.
Bryan has challenged Taft to tell acho aoero.

~rasc7wpu1ous Jesuit to he's present position,

had talk with one of the young men that
stays In the newsstand, and he said that the
reason they quit selling your magazine was
that the Catholics did not like it and that
when they would see it there they would not
patronze them.
With best regards to you and Mrs. Watson,
l am, Yours very truly,
AN AUGUSTA MAN.
Now, suppose that Potestants who have been
patronizing that news stand, and all others
run by the Queen & Crescent Corporation,
should demand a square deal and equal rights
for Watsom's Magazine, do you not know that
the news company would come across?
Have we no Protestants in Augusta who
will go to the news stand, at the Union Depot,
and talk to the deQ1er, straight from the
shoulder?
Cant we hit that dealer with a boycott, just
as easily as he can strike US? D6you eoant to

ed up at 4:45 o'clock Wednesday
afternoon.
The machine caught fire just
as Mr.. Dorman was ready to
make a flight on the North side
amid a small crowd of busi-

A few drops of gasoline near
the carburetor caught fire, and
as there was no water or fire
fighting apparatus on the ground
in a few seconds the whole
machine was a mass of flames.
Every possible effort was made
to save it. Chunks of dirt were
thrown on the burning places
and an effort was made to run it
into the river but all were with
out avail, and in a few minutes
the machine was a total wreck.
There is some insurance on the
machine but the loss to Mr.. Dor
man will be a heavy one.

From here Mr.. Hansch accom-

At Bow Island they stopped be-
tween trains and met up with
Mr.. and Mrs. Fuller, the former
of whom conducted a meat mar
ket, here at one time not so long
ago, and they found him conduct
ing like business at Bow Island
where he had a market well
stocked with meats of all kinds
common to such a business and
was apparently enjoying most
prosperous business. Mrs. Fuller

that since the settlement of the
family,in Bow Island they have
have been doing far better in a
business way than they had ever
dared to dream of doing before
leaving here, and as conse-
quence they are today on "easy

Smith boys, Freddie and Herman
sons of Mrs. Abe Smith, who is
nicely located with her family
in the town and the boys are do
ing a large and prosperous bust
mess in their big pool hall, which
is equipped with the best of
everything pertaining to that
business. Mrs. Smith they did
not meet in person, but learned
from other sources that she had
indeed been fortunate in her pur-
chase Of some of the best busi-
ness property in the place, which
she still holds, as we'll as a fine
quarter section farm only a short
distance from town, and the
boys, Herman and Freddie, are

was Is years old the family
moved to North Dakota and set
tied in Dickey, county near
Oakes, where Bob again worked
on the home place in the summer
time, and spent the winters in
northern Minnesota numbering.
Each spring he would take a
bunch Of logs from the pineries
to the mills and became quite an
expert in doing stunts while
standing on a floating log. Even
after coming to Bowbells he
would frequently get onto an
empty barrel when he was feel
ing good and would make the
thing spin in a way that amused
everybody.
In 1891 he with his parents and
the rest of the family moved to
Trail county and there again
settled on a farm, and Bob con-
tinued pursuing farming, thresh-
ing numbering and log driving
until 1894, when he came to the
conclusion that selling prunes
would be an easier and more pro-
fitable way of making living,
and forthwith started a store at
Keslo, a small town near Hills
boro in the Red river valley.
While at Kelso he was told of
the great opportunities for a
general store at Bowbells, and
after paying this city visit, he
concluded to come here in 1901.
Since coming here he has done
exceptionally well, enjoyed a
very large patronage and made
some money. But three years
ago he was taken down with
rheumatism and was compelled
to spend the winter at Hunter
Springs in Montana. He came
back in the spring feeling fine
and thought for a time that the
disease had left him, but when
fall came and with it the cold
weather, he was again taken

SPANS RATIONAL ANTHEM.
sI,a Marcia Realle" Was Composed by
Frederick the Great.

Frederick the Great was the com
poser Of the Spanish national anthem
Frederick's ambitions were varied. He
performed on the flute. He desired tc
be thought poet. He quoted Latin
but his quotations would have made
Cicero stare and gasp. During that
remarkable friendship which existed
between him and Voltaire the author
of the 'Henriade" exclaimed with de.
rision, "See the dirty linen I have tc
wash" holding up Frederick's manu-
script, which had been sent him to re-
wise. In the field the great warrior
carried about his own poems in his
pocket and bottle Of poison, so that
ne should not be taken alive. NIenzels
picture depicts the king with his flute,
and Bach dedicated to him one of his
compositions.
The story Of the composition Of the
Spanish national anthem is full of in
terest. A little while after the conclu-
sion Of the Seven Years war Frederick
Mt court reception to the surprise of
every one produced a march which be
had composed. The Spanish ambassa-
dor, both a musician and courtier,
asked for a copy to send to his royal
master, Charles III. That monarch
admired the piece, and it was often
heard at the Escurial. After time 1t
was laid aside and almost forgotten.
In 1869, after the deposition Of Isabel
la, Marshal Serrano instituted COM
petition among composers for nation
al anthem. Some 500 compositions
were sent in, but none Of them was so
inspiring as Frederick's march, which
had been exhumed from the archives.
This was chosen and is today known
as LA Marcia Realle. "-London Globe.
