'sT0rua Watson is Indicted"

'eTOT1a Watson is Indicted.''
WTHOMAS E. WATSON, former Pop
ulist candidate for President, must
face trial in the Federal Court at Augusta
next March on the charge of sending OBJ
scene matter through the mails. The
grand jury returned an Indictment
against Watson ON Monday afternoon.
Several months ago Watson was ar
rested on a Federal warrant, charging
that he had sent matter of an obscene ma
ture through the mails. He was bound
over under So, 900 bond to await the ac-
ton of the Federal jury. In connection
with villifcation of the Catholic Church,
Watson used some quotations from a
copyrighted book which the governments
attorney considered obscene.
"Watson pleaded that the book was =
copyrighted and had been sent through
the mails for years without protest from
the postoffice department and that he was
being Disseminated against"
The above is taken from "Cattozic Union
and TimeS," of November 81, 1912.
1t is a paper that is published in Buffalo,
n. Y.

ing what was the alleged obscene matter

the mails.
AS matter of fact, it was The Jeffersonian
Publishing Company which sent those maya
zines through the y. S. mails, and in the
eyes Of the law, every officer of the company
is as legally responsible as [ myself am.
/ merely state this fact, however, to show to
you how they have singled me out for per-
secution and destruction.
The Federated Catholic Societies are skullz-
ing behind the United States government, en-
deavoring to use that powerful machinery to
wreak vengeance upon private citizen.
These federated societies of Roman Cath
olics have their far-reachings organizations,
penetrating all of our cities, and in some in
stances, controlling them.
They have almost unlimited funds of
money at their command they publish many
newspapers; they influence thousands of
other papers which they do not even have to
90 to the expense of publishing.
they can intimidate merchants, lawyers, doc
otrs, butchers, ETC., by threatening to strike
their business with the boycott.
AS for me- | stand alone.
There is no organization of non Catholics,
so far as I now know, that is both willing and
able to help me in the fight against this mon
ster of Roman Catholicism.
My only hope is, that no Judge and no
jury will find me guilty.
It is not alleged that have published any,
thing that was untrue
MY real crime is, that I published things
that the Roman Hierarchy do not intend that
the world shall know

Turn Out i'm Uniforms and
Arms 10 Escort a Roman
Catholic Cardinal.
FOR very many years James Gibbons, of
Baltimore has been Cardinal of the
Roman Catholic church.
So far as | can recollect he has never been
furnished by the U. S. Government with a
military escort.
If ever he has visited one of our warships,
he was never given the salute accorded to
princes.
You will remember that when John O'Con-
mel returned from Rome to Boston, with the
red hat that cost him $4,000, his friends
demanded of Governor Foss that he allow a
regiment OF soldiers to act as a part Of O'Con-
ne's escort.
Governor Foss fatty refused.
Events in this country, however, are travel
ing rapidly.
The tentacles Of the pope are tightening
everywhere.
You can see it in the conduct Of politicians,
editors, capitalists and officials.
distinct step forward was taken a few
days ago in Salt Lake City
Cardinal Farley was out there on semi
royal progress
What happened when his special train ar
rived in Salt Lake City, / will give you in
his own words:
"In one instance my breath was almost
taken away" said Cardinal Farley "rThis
was the very striking reception rendered /
me in Salt Lake City. When / arrived in
the city my train was about an hour late 1
and it was nearly s o'clock. [ found
waiting for me at the station a whole
regiment of United States troops and a
military band that acted as my escort" 4
If any other church dignitary than a Ro-
man Catholic Cardinal had landed in that city
would regiment of u. S. soldiers have been
turned out to escort him through the streets?
Was any such thing ever done before in the
history of this country?
1t never was.
VIII it become a constant occurrence for
the popish Cardinals to be accorded military
honors and escorts?
It certainly will, unless the Protestant world
wakes up.
Who called out those u. S. troops? u
BY what authority was it done?
What has the U. S. army to do with any
church whatsoever!
Is our Constitution a dead letter?
Have we no patriots In Congress, who will
take this matter up and make an issue of it?
Are we to pay soldiers to act as escorts for
priests?
Are we never to recognize and resist these
insidious approaches to a union between the
church and the State?
Ii every subscriber to this paper would take
the trouble to write to his immediate Con-
gresham, and to his Senators, demanding
that an investigation be made of this subject,

The Man That Does ThIna..

1T is not the critic who counts
not the man who points out how the
strong mar stumbles, or where the
doer OF Isads-could have done them
better. The credit belongs to the man
who is actually In the arena, whose
face is marred by dust and sweat and
blood, who strives valiantly; who errs
and comes short again and again be-
cause there is no effort without error
and ~shortcoming, but who does actu-
ally strive to do the deeds; who
knows the great enthusiasm, the great
devotions; who spends himself in a
worth cause; who at the best knows
In the end the triumph Of high
achievement and who at the worst,
II he fails, at least fails while daring
greatly. so that his place shall never
