psf in you, ] was more than favora-
R1y impressed with your speech on
3bove occasion. You WELD sharp
word, with which you sometimes
bake terrible thrusts and make bare
p the bone, you are a terrible OPP
.onent and a mighty good friend. 1
Eant to be numbered among your
friends, and [ start off deeply in
Jour debt, because you have been
hanly and just to my good friend

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE

view this subject as l do, Christ's
shedding of blood has very little to
do with the heathen's Christianity
There also is ANOTHER point which
| want you to take under considera-
ton. Is it not true that Christ is
just as competent to save heather
without the aid of preacher, Tin
Africa as He is in America? For
He says, eye are chosen in Christ
Jesus before the foundation of the
world" And could this preacher
save the Ethiopian against the will
preacher is the mediator between
God and the man, instead of Christ,
who is the way, truth and life, and
no man can enter Heaven except by
Christ. But does not the African
go by way of the preacher?
Let us now come back to our own
country and see the need of help
here. First, by the poor little
homeless children who reside in
such cities as Chicago, New York,
Philadelphia, etc, whose appetites
are never satisfied. They must roam
the streets begging clothing and
food, while you and l send money
to Africa to ''save a Heather" In
stead of us being obedient, we are
disobedient. Why not look after
our own welfare instead of the well
fare of some one who has nothing
to do with us.
Why some Of us even go so far
as to establish schools in that
jungle country instead of helping
OFT ppichhOr CbOI116
Give this some close considera-
ton before ridicuIing it.
Yours very truly,
ROBERT LATHAM.

HOW 'FOREIGN MISSIONS" AP-
PEAR TO ONE MAN.

Dear Sir: When you hear one
pay Foreign Missions" he general
: y means, missionaries to Africa,
China, India Or some where over
fhere.
The first thing we should ques-
! ion is the cause of Foreign Mission,
sall know that the ideas of missions
pre- to bring the heather to God,
otherwise to save him, or just give
Rhim eternal life by the hands of the
Great Creator: now why does this
preacher want to go to Africa, when
shOme missions are open? Here is
khe reason Foreign mission is a
ssIicker scheme to get more money.
Now ! believe that it takes about
ten ($10) dollars to save one
aheathen in Africa. So the preacher
gets up in the pulpit with great
TEARS in his eyes, and tells the peo-
Rple of the poor Africans, showing
their sinful condition, causing
many" to help the cause along;
and therefore by the obedience of
sthe Good Book" says, by the
SCbeul0HCc OI one HAL, MANY dl =
made righteous"
The question now arises, what re-
deemed the heather?
Is it not fact that he was re-
deemed by gold and silver. For if
Bit had not been for the ten dollars
sthe heather would never have OBJ
stained eternal life, because the
preacher would never have went to
africa. Hence his redemption was
due to the willingness of the many
INCLUDING the preaC her, gold and
Silver. The Bible says: "Ye are not
redeemed bu such corruptible
things as gold and silver, but
Through the precious blood of
Christ, which he shed on Calvary's
Mount, etc"

MORE ABOUT BRYAN'S PERFIDY
AT BALTIMORE

Dear Sir: You have already in
the Jeffersonian gave some of the
per1dious acts of w. J. Bryan, but
you have left off some, that should
also be given to the public.
was delegate to the Baltimore
convention in June last, and saw
the action of that man, and his
efforts to bring his party to destruc-
ton, because he could not get the
nomination and run things to suit
himself.
After he had gone back on Clark;
and when he saw that Wilson was
likely to win he then had published
two or three men that he would like
to run as dark horse for president.
and one of these was a Roman Cath
Ollie.
And on the last night of the con-
vention when many delegates had
left for their homes, a vice-presi-
dent was to be nominated. Cover
nor Marshall of Indiana was named
and so was Gov. John Burke Of
North Dakota. Bryan was one of
the men who nominated Burke and
paid him a great eulogy. Burke
came near winning on the first bal
lot, and it was whispered around
the convention that Burke was a Ro-
man Catholic, and this beat him on
the second ballot. w. j. Brayn and
everybody else knows that the peo-
pie of this country do not intend to
make Roman president or vice
president, and I am satisfied that
Bryan named him for the purpose Of
having the party beaten at the polls.
This is one of the base acts that you
have not named.
Yours truly,
j. A. BRANNEN.

WAKING THEM UP IN THE
NATIONAL CAPITAL.


Dear Sir: I am a very enthu-
siastic reader of your Magazine and
am glad that 1 have become ac-
quainted with it. It has been only
a few months since my eyes were
opened to what the Roman Catholic
hierarchy is attempting to do in
this country, and I thoroughly ap-
prove of the fight you are making,
and whenever | read one of your
articles, [ thank God for your exis-
tence and wish that there were more
men like you.
I conclude, from reading your
Jefersonian, that you like to put
matters up to Mr.. Bryan in a very
serious light, and therefore [ be-
lieve that you will be interested in
reading the enclosed article, "Bry-
ans's Blunders at Baltimore" which
l am sending to '"The Menace" in
answer to a letter appearing in that
paper.
a, [ have asked the Menace to send
me in advance the number of the
issue in which my article will ap-
pear if they intend to print it, and
when | receive notice of the num-
Der, I will send it to you so that you
can add an Introductory reference
to this correspondence controversy
in The Menace, should you think
the article worth printing in your
publication
| was pleased to see that you
published my article "The Political
Leaders and the Catholic Vote" in
the July issue of your Watson's. 1
see the Literary Digest has review
of the article.
Wishing you unbounded success,
and feeling confident that you are
coming out Of the suit against you
gloriously, I am,
