Columbia, May 2S.-We have trac-
ed this graft practically to the gov
ernor himself; and we say that it is
a shameless situation and back of il
all is who?"
This question is asked in big type
on the editorial page Of Common
Sense a weekly paper published in
Charleston and known to be the Of
fetal organ of John =. Grace. mayor
of Charleston. Accompanying the
editorial IS a letter addressed by Nav
or Grace to Governor Blease with ref
erence 10 the whiskey law enforce
ment in Charleston. In the editorial
II is pointed out that the governor
broke faith with Mayor Grace by
placing whiskey constables in Char
lesion. The editorial indicates. at
least, complete break between
Blease and Grace. 1t is as follows:
GRAFT AND GRAFTERS."
we are publishing on this page a
letter written to Governor Blease by
Mr.. Grace about eighteen months ago
1t Is the first chapter explanatory Of
the relations which have grown up
between these gentlemen. We ask
our readers to weigh every word of
1t, because it touches the vital ques-
ton of their local self government.
Before Mr.. Grace agreed to support
Mr.. Blease. he asked but one oues-
ton; and that was what did the gov
ernor. if elected, intend to do toward
restoring to Charleston control over
her purely domestic affairs? His
promise was to give us the largest
possible measure of freedom; and
upon this assurance Mr.. Grace ex-
erted every effort toward his cleo
tion and toward the defeat of Mr.
Featnerstone, who had in the most
wanton manner, i'm speech at Hi
berian Hall during the campaign. in

telling them that he did not want

suppress Watson's.
The Knights of Columbus resoluted and
resolved, at~their annual convention to 'Eput
Watson out Of business"
And right nobly have they tried.
The publications which the Roman Catholic
Hierarchy control or publish have, for the
past three months been publishing as ''exclu-
sive news" the arrest, suppression, bank

E. Watson, but nothing really happened until

Marshal appeared with a warrant and went

Thos E. Watson Arrested al His Home in Thomson Ca

THOS. E WATSON was arrested on Mon
day at noon and carried to Augusta in
custody of United States Marshal George
White, of Macon.
The warrant on which Mr. Watson was
taken into custody, set forth the fact that
Watson's Magazine, which is mailed out from
Thomson, Ga, had carried in its May num-
Der, obscene and scurilous matter
The Roman Catholic Hierarchy has chafed
for many months, over The History Of the
Roman Catholic Hierarchy, which has been
running as a serial in Watson's Magazine.
In every possible manner, the Roman Cath
olic Hierarchy has tried, through it's various
agencies, to destroy the publication known as
Watson's Magazine
In the month of October, 1911, over one
thousand subscribers of the Magazine, who
had, prior to the beginning of The History
OF the Roman Catholic Hierarchy, received
their Magazine regularly, failed to receive
that issue.
From that time to the present, the agents
of the Roman Catholic Hierarchy have been
tireless in their scheming and planning, and

Unit principle, but the hired hoodlums didn't
care button for the County Unit principle,
or any other principle, so they voted us
down.
When [ nominated the temporary chair
man, John W. Bennett, of Waycross, there
was no room for fight, and none was made
While he was presiding, I made an effort
to head off the slate makers, but the point of
order was made on me that was premature,
and again the hoodlums voted us down.
When [ nominated the permanent chair
man, G. r. Hutchens, the hoodlums fairly
lost their breath, for they had not expected
any such move on my part.
But when objected to eight delegates
large being voted for, in bunch and asked
that each man stand on his own merits, the
hoodlums broke loose again.
Eel-SEinner Fielder knew very we'll he
could not be elected delegate on his eel
skinner merits.
The friends of W. G. Brantley knew per-
fectly well that this deserter to the Republi-
cans, and henchman to the Lumber Trusts,
could not be elected if he had to stand alone
and be voted for separately.
Therefore, the six popular men, who were
put In nomination for delegates at-large, had
the modification to see themselves used in the
interests of two unworthy men, the Eel-Skin-
ner and the Pompous One.

Rumor was current among the New York
papers that the warrant was to be issued
because of an editorial Mr.. Watson had writ
ten relative to the mission" of Major Archie
Butt to Rome
That editorial we also reproduce in this
issue of The Weekly Jefersonian.
1t has been limited too, that the feelings Of
the three Irish American Cardinals have been
grossly hurt because Mr.. Watson criticised
their personal appearance too freely.
Be that as it may, the outcome Of this pro-
ceeding will be of national Importance.
Is the Roman Catholic Hierarchy already
so tremendous power in this country that
the opinion of scholar, historian and editor
is sufficient ground for his arrest?
Is the entire country to be ruled, reli-
giously, politically, editorially, by a power
which has become overbearingly insolent,

When [ tried to point out the folly and the
unprecedented injustice of compelling anti

Ma Convention Did MOI Help the Cause of

THE delegates who were sent to the State
Convention last week, were a fine body
of men.
They came from all the walks of life, and
superbly represented the highest type of Geor-
gia manhood.
But the Atlanta politicians we're determined
that these delegates chosen by the people,
should not run the Convention.
They packed the Opera House with the riff
raft of Atlanta ward-heelers, city buns,
chronic loafers and professional dead beats
men who can be hired for trife to do dirty
work for any city politician.
From the very first, it was evident that the
theatre had been packed by enemies of your
Petitioner, who were not delegates, and had
no right to- seats with the delegates.
This was so apparent to Chairman Hutch
ems, that he made the most urgent appeals to
those who were on the floor and who were not
delegates, to retire, but his praiseworthy
efforts were complete failure.
He must have realized that any effort to
clear the house would have resulted in riot
Of course, he was not prepared for that,
and he abandoned his efforts to purge the
Convention of those who had no right to be
there
The roll was never called.
The membership was never ascertained.
When | endeavored to have the County
Unit Plan adopted, the very principle upon
which we had won the election-the hood
lums of Atlanta out-Voted the delegates.
The states made in the secret caucuses the
hight before, could not be smashed.
The delegates saw the Importance of follow

Philadelphia May 13-Medical
scientists in session here at the CON
vcntion of the American Laryngologi-

demonstration which fully justified Du
Mauriers fanciful tale OF the trans
formation OF "Tr'lby's' unmusical
voice into that OF an accomplished
singer.
The psyChicaI illustration was given
by DIR. Frank T. Miller, of New York
who reported an interesting case n
which the patient was girl who had
been in the habit of meeting singers
in the physicians office. where she
was employed. and had expressed Il
desire to go upon the operate stage.
Realizing that her voice was one of
mediocrlty. she asked to be hypno-
tized and allowed to sing to the ac-
compartment OF the photograph. Dr.
Miller accommodatingly made the ex-
pertinent and the effect was true to
the story of Du Maurier
Voices Of Well known soprano and
tenor singers were reproduced on the
phonograph at Yesterdays demonstra-
ton. and to each the young girl sang
with perfect ease. While in the hyp-

duced to the ssembled physicians and
