FIRES A SHOT FROM HIS
FLINTL0cK.

Tracy City is heard from by little
two by four Socialist by the name of
"Uncle Tom, little right hand dod-
ger of Mr.. Brannan, who seems to
think himself to be wise. There is
some in his reply to "Wild West" /
agree with. The most of his reply |
deny as untrue He seems to know
nothing and cares less. That this gov
eminent is more cruel and unjust than
that of the savages is not true. Social
ism is the class your clan belongs TO,
and they are trying to destroy this
great republic of ours that our fore
fathers fought and labored so hard for,
and set up kingdom. Since when
are the people learning that they are
robbed of their landf Little two by
four, when did they get this land
The owners paid for this land and So
cialists are trying to rob them of it,
and if those drones of Tracy City
would get out and labor by the sweat
of their brow perhaps they could buy
some of this land which they are try
ing to rob the owner of. No, God did
not create the land for few men, for
there was only one man at that time.
Read Genesis and learn something.
Mr.. B., l suppose would not say a
word against the preachers and church
es. He will let them go and preach
anything in the name of religion, and
accept all as true, which / cannot do
and live for Christ. Mr.. B. has scor
ed more truth on that line than you
think for. / have failed to see his
truth. Nothing but misrepresenta
tion of the Bible. Many stood for
Caesar in Christ's day, and Brannan's
little two by four is standing for
Caesar in these days. | will give the
readers some of their teachings and
see how the little two by four will
jump at it.
Wicked sinners, those who were new
er in covenant relation with God, are
invited by these people unto what
they term, ''the altar of the Lord.
No man living can produce text of
Scripture justifying this procedure,
not case can be found in the Bible
where any person not in covenant
with God was ever permitted into the
"altar of the Lord" The Bible says,
"Let all things be done decently and
in order. Il Cor. lao. LET your
women keep silence in the churches. 3"
Verse a. "The things write unto
you are the commandments of God.
Verse g. There is no order at your
peoples altar. The women (some of
them) act very indiscreet They are
positively commanded to keep silent
and instead of doing as commanded
they try to see who can excel in noise.
They are commanded not to speak and
instead of obeying the Lord they go
contrary to his command and speak
loudly and say some very silly things.
This every reader knows. Why do you
people uphold the system seeing it is
positively condemned by the Bible9
Your people have system of so-called
altar services, unauthorized in the BIZ
BILE. The Prophet Malachi has this to
covering the altar of the Lord with
tears, with weeping, crying out, in as
much that he regardeth not the offer
ing any more or reCeiveth it with good
pleasure at your hands. Mai. 2:13.
Christ nowhere erected an altar and
invited sinners into it to be saved.
"The Lord regardeth not the prayers
of those who covered his altar with
tears with weeping and crying out "
NAL. 2:13. SIT remaineth that they
that weep be as though they weep not,
and they that rejoiced as though they
rejoiced not u Cor. 7:18
Now this is what Mr.. Brannan's lit
tie two by four jumped up Socialist
teaches. The doctrine of Socialism
wants kingdom instead of a repub-
lic AS showed in a former article,
so | will not say any more on the
kingdom until the little two by four
hobs up again.
Yes, hate the doctrine of Socialism
as much, if not more than Mormon
ism, for they are more dangerous than
Mormons. l am fighting Mormons all
the time and Socialism is ten times
worse The little two by four does
not know what it takes to constitute a
christian. He has butter milk brains.
A few words on the union: l be-
lieve in the laboring class, but | do
not believe in concern that keeps
man out of work most of the time,
and upholds lot of dead beats.
Our little two by four now thinks he
has found hiding place. He cites us
to Micah, second chapter 1t has no
reference to his dogma. 1t refers to
Israel and Jacob; not to any dogma
that wants to destroy republic. He
cites the readers to James 5th but that
has nothing to do with his dogma.
The rich man is the one who trusts in
his riches. "Where your treasure is
there will be your heart also, "says our
Lord. Not all rich men, but the one
that trusts in riches Wrong again,
little two by four Methodist. You say
the Mormon is the God of the world.
They are trying to destroy the spirit
ual kingdom, while You Socialists are
trying to destroy our republic. The
little two by four now comes to what
he calls "Illinois Pal that means
anything. So our little jump and jack
is against pure and undefiled religion.
1t is for you to creep off and hide.
l will turn the truth against you
every time, SO lick your flint and try
again. Here is work for you to do.
