.orneys Proffer their Serv-
ices to Mr.. Watson

- EAR SIR: I note that you
III have been arrested upon the
IL BR alleged charge of sending OBJ
scene literature through the
mails. This, in my opinion, is des-
perate effort upon the part of the
Roman Catholic priests to silence
you and put you out Of business, but
they will not succeed. I am sure
you are just clearing decks for the
battle May you have Gods help in
this fight. 1t is time for Protestants
everywhere to awake to the true
situation for our political and relig-
ious liberty is at stake.
It seems to me that your arrest
upon so fimsy a charge is the great
est blunder that the priests could
have made It will do them more
harm than anything they could have
done. They know you are right and
that you are opening the eyes of the
people to the true dangers that con-
front them, and as they cannot meet
you with argument, they are using
every means to set you out of bust
ness.
have been reading your publica-
tons from the beginning, and when
you announced that you would write
series of articles on the Roman
Catholic Hierarchy, I felt that you
were risking your very life, and you
were. You must be careful for your
life is in danger STILL
You are making the grandest,
noblest fight for trut hand right Of
any man in the United States, and
every true American should stand
Loyalty by you. If can do anything
in your behalf, you have but to
command me. Hoping that you may
be blessed with health and long life,
I am, Sincerely yours,

Tennille, Ga.

Dear Sir and Brother: Press dis
patches of Saturday and Sunday con-
vey the information that you are to
be prosecuted by the U. S. Govern
ment on account of your publica-
tons. There are thousands of hearts
beating warm toward you over this
side, and you may rest assured of
our heartiest sympathy with and for
you in this trial
The conflict for free press and
speech is on now; the country is
slowly but surely waking to a real
ization of the situation, and nothing
will contribute more to the promo
ton of this good work than what
you have and do suffer in this good
cause. If we can render any assist
ance to you in any way, command
US. Yours very sincerely,

THE COST WILL NOT BE THE M
PORTANT FEATURE IN THIS
teTEST CASE''-T. e, w. WILL
WILLINGLY PAY 1T.

Dear Sir: AS reader of your
Magazine I write to thank you for
the courageous and open manner in
which you are doing the American
people a great and timely service in
exposing Roman Catholic organiza-
ton, etc., wherever found. Let us
hope you will keep it up, and that
your Magazine will reach the thou
sands of our American young, and
even old men, who have been
brought up in absolute ignorance Of
this deadly menace, and that they
may learn before it is too late. In
this connection it may be we'll to
point out by way of comparison that
the education of the Roman Catholic
begins before the birth Of the child
and never ends. Now, it's shame
that our American people, and espe-
cially our ministers who call them
selves Protestants, are doing moth
ing toward educating our young
along lines that would at least pre-
pare them to give or return blow for
blow in their battles with Rome,
which are sure to come to every man
some day.
Now, will you kindly tell us
something about W. E. Martin, Alex
ander Alderman and A. J. Night, who
are evidently working overtime for

Rome? Right here: If you should
be put to undue expense in fighting
this gang, I respectfully suggest that
you advise your readers, when,
feel confident, enough will be con-
tributed to cover the cost, no matter
what or how much. The people have
needed just such a leader as you,
Mr.. Watson, for a long time, and it's
up to the people to stand by you
until hell freezes over; so go after
the entire gang of cut-throats, and
when you can, will you tell US about
our Romanist Congressman, etc, and
name them? / am on the road the
greater part of my time, and should
1 find opposition or suppression in
the sale of your Magazine at any
news stand, will advise you, or more,
will undertake to establish a stand
at my own expense if necessary.

LAGRANGE, Ga.


Dear Mr.. Watson: Having just
finished reading the article in re-
gard to the Federal warrant issued
and served on you charging you with
misusing the mails, and while am
sure you are able to take care of
yourself, 1 want to assure you that
I, with many, many others, am with
you, and want to see you fight the
Roman Heresy to the end It is
hardly possible for you to say too
much against it, and you have fol-
lowing in Georgia that will stand to
you to the end in any fight you may
wage against it's doctrines. I am
from Emanuel, son Of Henry L.
Smith, who has always been Wat
son man and has reared four Watson
boys, one of whom is myself. If you
do nothing else and, emitting all
else you have done, than expose this
damnable creed which is usurping
and taking hold upon the very roots
of our Government, you will fill a
hero's grave and die the truest pa
triot Of your age. Even your enc
mies-many of them-are with you
in this fight and will stand by YOU
to the last ditch. Tell the truth on
them, Tom, and let 'em kick.
Yours, e. r. SMITH.

My Dear Mr.. Watson: was
shocked few days since to see from
the papers that you had been ar
rested, and the cause of it, and at
once saw the bloody hand of Rome
that abominatiOn of desolation of
which the prophet spoke, and | am
writing this letter of sympathetic
assurance to you. The time has
come when every Protestant in this
country should rally to your help,
and they are going to do it, espe-
cially those whose eyes have been
opened to the situation of Roman
encroachment in these United States.
We have got to meet this issue if re-
ligious liberty is to be perpetuated
in this country, and the sooner our
people wake up the better. Your ar
rest should bring every Protestant
in this State to your rescue, and it
ought to add one hundred thousand
subscribers to your pubEcations-it
has made you many friends here and
throughout the State. l am ready
to stand by you to the end. Mr. M.
u. Mooty, in the office with me, joins
in this letter. They mistake the
man if they think your courage can
be broken in this way; you are doing

Dear Sir: Please allow me to ex-
press my sympathy for you in the
persecution which the pussy-footed
Catholics are making on you for
your publication of the truth about
them in your magazine. I believe
their latest attempt, having you ar
rested, is a blessing to you in dis
guise. Most people who have dis
cussed it in my presence have ex-
pressed the belief that you will come
out Of this with flying colors. 1t will,
at least, do one thing: it will adver-
tise your Magazine, whereas hereto
fore you have been denied the col
umns of the press for advertising
purposes.
Permit me also to offer my hum
BILE services to you, should you need
them. | am ready and willing to do
all can to help you. With my best
wishes and kindest regards, l am,
Yours truly,

My Dear Mr.. Watson:-

My Dear Mr. Watson:-
Inotice in the papers this morning
that a warrant has been issued for
your arrest by the United States
Court officials, charging you with
having sent obscsene matter through
the mails. 1t is my opinion that this
prosecution was born in the Vatican,
and it's purpose to intimidate you
in your great work against the Dagos
and their teachings.
Believing your fight to be the
fight of the People, / respectfully
tender you my service as a lawyer,
and my moral support and sympa-
thy as a liberty loving American citi-
zen.
Very truly,

OKLAHOMA DEMOCRATS
MEET ON WEDNESDAY
WILL RATIFY NOM
INEES AND ADOPT A
PLATFORM.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Aug. 26.-Dis-
appointment is said to be in store for
those who will urge the democratic
state convention here next Wednesday
to give expression on the political or
administrative quarrels Of the last
year, according to local gossip here
tonight. Friends of Gov. Cruce are
said to be in control of the delegations
and there is no opportunity for secur-
ing adoption OF a resolution which
could be considered as a slap" at tho
governor.
Letters have been going over the
state during the past week to friends
OF the deposed members of the state
board Of education, urging that the
members had not merited removal by
the governor, and asking for an ex-
preston along that line from the con-
vention. The proposition, according
to local people watching the campaign
has thus far received little support.
Some Of the county delegations will
enter the convention instructed to vote
for resolution declaring that the

party should make nomination for
state examiner and inspector upon the
proposition that the law says that In
case of a vacancy the place shall be
filled at the next general election. At
torneys have held that the application
means the general election at which
the officials term would have expired
had he lived. The supreme court has
passed upon the matter in three cases,
sustaining the contention, II Is said.
1t is Indicated that Secretary Riley
of the state election board, VIII de-
cline to place the names of such can
didates on the ballot and that the Is
sue will again be taken to the su-
preme court in a mandamus suit.
The work OF the convention will be
confined to ratlfying the party nom
inees in the primary election and the
adoption Of platform, the latter
probably being limited to the discus
sion of issues in the state campaign
and perhaps the state election law,
which, 1t Is generally admitted, needs
amending. One plank may deal with
Gov. Cruce'se policy in reducing the
county and ats expenses.
Tom Harrill n Wagner, has no op-
position for state chairman. Judge
William Bowles Of Perry, is spoken Of
for temporary chairman, and Herbert
Bolen, member Of the Legislature
from Oklahoma City and one Of the
owen managers in the primary. for
chairman Of the party campaign com
mittee. The place is filled by the state
Friends of Gov. Cruce and
of Senator II. L. owen are expected to
be in control of both the convention
and the committee.
