A LETTER FROM MEIGs.

My Dear Sir Enclosed you will
find clipping from the Daily MouI-
trie Observer. That shows which
way the wind is blowing in regard
to our new county movement. The
prominent gentlemen that started
this movement for a new county as
sured me and others that it was per-
fectly satisfactory for us to name
it Watson county, but here Of late
the name seems to have received
touch of the famous Horiphobious
cold foot, and l have put it squarely
up to them, that it is to be Watson
county, or no county at all. If they
could not stand the name of Watson,
why did they play the baby act, and
so readily agree to it? They know
the name was not unduly forced on
them, for long before your name
was mentioned in connection with it,
I had suggested the name of Bow
ers, Carter and Wilkes, but this did
not suit, and finally, after 1 had
studied the situation over, [ knew
that full two thirds of the voters in
the territory to be incorporated was
your friends, hence | suggested your
name, which apparently was per-
fectly all right, and satisfactory, but
l think now they are little more
inclined to accept the name in good
faith. They know that [ hold the
key to the situation, and they also
know that 1 will never yield an inch
from my present position, after be-
ing fooled into believing the name
was perfectly satisfactory to them.
All l want is a square deal and moth
ing more. Moral gentlemen don't
hatch up an agreement among your
selves to catch Mr.. Watson's friends
and then try to side track them.
Very truly, your friend,
w. j. WINGATE.

FROM A SURE ENOUGH WATSON
MAN

Dear Sir: l am a reader of your
Jeffersonian, and have thought for
some time l would write you, as I
admire it above any paper that is
published: and want you to know
that l indorse every word you have
to say, and think you have been
very wrongfully treated, even by the
government. l want you to continue
your mighty work. 1 believe the
God that rules all things will permit
you to keep your work going on
and your business will prosper and
you will live long to enIighten thous-
ands Of people on many important
subjects as you have in the last fif-
teen years. | know you have made
many friends through this country.
and have kept the farming class of
people posted better than any other
man in Georgia today, and I for one
among hundreds of thousands of
other good citizens of Georgia will
stand by you even though we have
to shed blood. We want you to con-
tinue to give those Roman Catholics
every thing you have in your shop,
and let us know more about them;
keep us posted. l am also signing
your Protestant League and sending
it to you. [ will be delighted to do
anything else in my power for you,
at any time l can. l am a sure
enough Watson man.

A REASON FOR EVERYTHING.

Strange phenomena reported in
one days news:
Wooden clothes will cost more, be-
cause the wool clip is smaller.
Cotton clothes will be dearer, be-
cause rains have hurt the cotton
crop.
Shoes will be higher, because so
much leather is used in automobiles.
Wheat will be higher, because the
Turks have closed the DardanelIes.
Meat will cost more, because the
packers need the money.
Butter will be dearer, because the
finer grades are scarce.
Fresh eggs will be higher, because
the hens will soon stop laying.
Milk will be dearer, because
everything else is.
Coal will cost more, because Mr..
George F. Baer and his associates
say so.
There is thus reason for every
thing. Boston (Mass.) Globe

AN ALOPATHIC DOCTOR WRITES
FROM GEORGIA.

Dear Mr.. Watson: Have just read
letter from E. " B. headed some
light on a bill now pending before
-Georgia's legislature.
Mr.. Watson if you understand the
fearful commercial workings of the
medical fraternity, not only in Geor-
gia, but all over this centralized
government, I am unable to see
where you could say anything that
would tend to save scientific medi-
cine from the NAV of the heartless
trust. For some years after the
overthrow of the constitutional
liberties by the war of the North
upon the South it was hard for those
scientific men of medicine that had
been recognized as the leaders and
brightest lights of the world to
think that such would become of the
most beneicient profession that the
civilized world ever set on foot,
which course it has travelled from
our guiding oath more than 2,4O0
years ago and now to look back to
1851 when the Yankee government
made medicine contraband of war
and was the cause of at least one
third of the deaths of, their own
men at AndersonYille prison. But as
hope began to grow dim that De-
mocracy would never rule this peo-
pie again. The children of the
Alopathic school of medicine want
part of the authority over the
spoils of the commercial medical
home.

Dear Mr.. Watson: You must not

friend because / think you are
worthy of the friendship and conf
dence of the people, and being your
friend | am anxious for your sue
cess against your foes and in your
business.
You have many admirers in Butts
county, and they are on the in
crease. If at any time it is conyen-
lent for you to make a speech in
Butts county, I shall be glad to ad-
Vertise same extensively and have
you as my guest.
m very busy myself, but every
opportunity | say a word for your.
publications, and find people eager
TO read your literature. For an ex-
ample, | spent the 4th of July at In
dian Springs, | had my mornings
mail with me and was reading The
JeHersonian. A ocotchman came I'D
and asked me to lend him something
to read. | gave him The Jeff, he
was intensely interested in the pa
per and said there ought to be five
thousand editors like you. He
begged me for my paper. I gave
him your address and he said he
would write you, that he wanted to
send your paper to Scotland He
had not seen your paper before.
Pardon me for taking so much of
your time. With every good wish.
Fraternally yours,

A MAN WHO KNOWS GOV. GAR
LAND TAKES EXCEPTION
TO REVIEW.

My Dear Sir: Have just read in
your August Magazine Book Re-
views your review of Life of Gov.
Augustus H. Garland, of Arkansas
(call that Arkansaw.) I can't al
ways be calling you down on your
history, but in this case just must.
Now I knew Gov. Harland in May,
1875, only few months after he
was inaugurated governor. l was
then limb of the aw'-holding
a Georgia Law license-and was 3
weeks under 81 years of age the day
l met him. l have kept up with his
record and you do not say too much
for him. He was greater than many
know MIN to have been. He was in
a weak section, a weak side of the
union and belonged to weak party,
as did most Cor alb of the South's
great men in that day. He was
sense, honor and straight business.

SOME REVELATIONS AS TO
ROME

Dear Sir: The writer of this let
ter first saw the light on his faith
er's plantation on the Alabama side
of the Chattahoochee river, across
which stream one can look and view
the old red hills of Georgia, the birth
State of his parents, and where he
was destined to be brought up to
manhood. From infancy to man
hood, he lived in Covington, Newton
county Georgia, and after an expe-
rience of eight months in Cuba, and
twelve months in Louisiana, he is
fully prepared to accept and believe
any statement you may make in re-
gard to the Roman CathIic Hierar-
chy.
Take for instance, the case of
Father Holtgrien, of Placquemine,
La, against whom the grand jury
of that parish found twenty-nine
true bills for crimes against nature,
and two for criminal libel, and who
was arrested after he sneaked off
to New Orleans taken back to said
town, put in Jail, and a bond of
seventy-two thousand five hundred
dollars required for his release,
which the Rathskeller Restaurant
Man, of New Orleans, and one other
orthodox 'Catholic/Of that city made,
as the writer was told at that time
Soon after which, the two said bank
makers were dubbed Knights of a
special Catholic order, and their
costumes for the occasion, was ad-
vertised to have been sent from the
Vatican at Rome.
Up to this time, Arch Bishop
Blink or Blenk, the high muck a
muck Of Romanism in Louisiana had
not returned from Europe, but when
he did return, he said as the courts
had done nothing in the Holtgrien
matter, he could do nothing, or
would do nothing.
However from reading in the
leading daily paper Of New Orleans,
published at the time, and giving
what was supposed to be the facts
in the case, the writer of this article
is, much of the opinions that if
HOltgrien's feats had been in like
manner pulled off in any other
Southern State, except Louisiana,
he would hardly have missed the OPP
pOrtunity OF dangling IN mid-air
and peeping out of rope window.
About this time there came sail
ing down the Mississippi river one,
VIM. Fl. Taft present incumbent of
the White House chair, from his first
noted western trip, who alighted
from the beat, and went Immediately
to the home of Arch Bishop Blenk to
be entertained.

WOMAN Played PART
IN THE CONFESSION
BROTHER TO MAKE CON
EESSION.

Did Bud Bellew confess to the part
he played in the murder of Charles
Reuter- only after his sister, Dora
Bellew, shrewd business woman, had
prevailed upon him to do so?
1t is known that Bellows sister
connected with large threshIng ma
chine company in Kansas City came
TO Tulsa few weeks ago. She be
came a daily visitor at the county jail
and had long talks with her brother.
In her conversation with court house
and others connected in.
some way with the Reuter- case, Miss
Bellew evidenced a desire for her
brother to make a clean breast of his
part in the affair. At last Bellew. it
is said, agreed TO make complete
which he did, in writing.

State superintendent and the Dcposcd
Members Score Point.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Oct 1.-State
superintendent Wilson and the three
deposed members of the state board
Of education today scored point in
their controversy with Governor Cruce
when they announced through the
state superintendent department the
appointment of W. f. Gill of Pawhus-
ka as president of the Tahlequah nor
nal to succeed Frank f. Buck, re-
signed. Gill was one of those recent
ly named by Governor Cruce as a
member of the state board of educa-
ton In place of the three deposed
members. II was learned tonight that
Buck S resignation was rendered only
a week ago. Governor Cruce said he
had not issued a commission to Gill
as a new board member, neither had
he intimation that the place would not
be accepted. OF course, II Gill takes
the place, which pays s2,7OO per year,
the governor says that action, would
eliminate him from the new education
board The position of Gill would be
somewhat uncertain, it Is thought, ow-
ing to the doubtful authority of the
three deposed members to act.
Gill is president of the state teach
ers association and county superinten-
dent in Usage county.

Finally, my husband decided he
