THE JEFFERSONIAN


the district for years in favor of
Fighting the wrong previously done
me.
Mr.. Watson's generous conduct
was sincerely appreciated my me, es-
pecially as it came unsought, and
also, especially in view of the fact
that in his race for Congress in for
mer years I had made more stump
speeches against him than any man
in the district-though | had never
INDUCED in personal abuse of him
and had always recognized his abil-
ity.
Watson's Attitude Made Enemies.
This manly course on Mr.. Wat
sons part brought me an enthusi-
aStic support in many of the coun-
try counties.
But unfortunately, in my own
county of Richmond, Mr.. Watson's
friendly attitude raised up many
enemies against me. 1t is on this
subject that I wish now to make
few plain statements which I hope
may be productive of some public
good.
The enmity of Mr.. Watson here is
and the other religious.
Some old line Democrats have not
yet received grace enough to forgive
Mr.. Watson, though he has forgiven
them. They seem to forget that he,
too, may have had some cause for
grievance. Candidly, | think it is
time that this political opposition
ought to be allowed to die out, in
order that our country people and
city people might live together in
friendly peace to their mutual bust
ness advantage.
But the religious question arising
out of Mr.. Watson's criticisms of.
the Roman Catholic Church has been
dragged into this contest by Mr.
Hardwick's Enthusiastically by one,
we'll known and personally esteemed
by me, but whose name 1 need not
call. Thus, there is now arrayed
against me the almost solid vote of
my Catholic fellow-ciGizens and
friends-with some notable excep-
tons that I shall always remember
and gratefully cherish.
1t so happened that in the reli-
gious warfare that has ragged here
in Augusta for many years, / made
a public speech at the opera house
in 1896 in favor of religious free
dom, and in opposition to the politi-
cal prescription of Catholics A
Catholic friend of mine, told me soon
afterwards that he had sent a copy
of that speech to a high dignitary
in the church who said it was the
most original and unanswerable
argument on the subject he had ever
read.
The 1896 Speech Quoted.
Omitting the argument, let me
quote sentiment from that speech:
Away with such discord among the
citizens of the same community!
Away with such breaking of life
long friendships! Rather does my
heart turn to another scene which
rises before me. Just across the
street, yonder in the Baptist church,
some months ago the Rev. DR.. Pier
son, molly man of God, whose lips
were touched with celestial fire, was
holding series of revival meetings.
Knowing the power of music to dis
tract the mind from earthly things
and lift it up toward heaven, he had
sought and received the aid of all
the best singers in the Protestant
choirs. One Sunday afternoon, when
that building was packed to it's very
doors, there stood upon the plat
form four young men who sang
those old familiar Protestant hymns

The principles OF constitutional govern

and effective expression Of the popular
will, of the protection OF civil liberty and
of the rights Of men. and for the inter-

themselves In sustaining the structure OF

mon purpose, common ideal and common

Piles asserted and vitalized by II, the

great civilized and civilizing powers OF
the earth. 1t offers a home and oppor-
tunity TO the ambitious and industrious
from other lands. Resting upon the broad
basis of a peoples confidence and a peo-
pies support, Inc managed by the people
themselves, the government OF the United
States will meet the problems Of the fu-
ture as satisfactorily as It has solved those
