 It is pretty certain that Einsielden has been made subject of careful in duirY by the vatican authorities as a p1ace of retreat in case of peril.
 But it must not be judged from all this that the Vatican considers itself in any .ilnmediate danger of necessity to aatsRome On the contray, it Is almost secretly strengthening and increasing Rome defenses, under new and signifi- cant policy.
 For great many years the Pope has confined his kingdom to the territory which extends on one side at the rear of St Peters cathedral, over few square miles of ground, but it is now the intention of Plus X not only to spread the limit of his own kingdom, but to create a greater territorial dominion. with colonies in the very heart of Rome.
 Since the time of the occupation of Rome by the Italians, the Royal mint has had it's seat in an old building over looking the Pope's private gardens, so beloved by Leo XIII and which are now the daily theatre of sentimental walks by Plus x.

ALL EYES TURNED
 TOWARD BELFAST Ireland Aroused by Pro- posal to Prevent Speech
 of Churchill
By THOMAS EMMETT

Dublin February 3.-(Special) )--All eyes are turned on Belfast. The proposal of the Ulster lInionists to prevent John Red 1nond and Winston Churchill from speak ing in Belfast Thursday has Stirred all Ireland If an attempt is made to break up the meeting it is almost certain to mean serious trouble. for the nationalists are determined that the meeting shall not M be broken up.
 The events in Belfast next week will give pretty fair idea of the serious nesg of the opposition to home rule in Ulster.
 If the threats of the unionists are car ried out despite the police and the mill itary it will be taken to mean that the Carsonites are more serious than had been credited, but it is not believed that they will proceed to extremes
 Whether they do or not their wild threats have had the effect of solidifying nationalist opinion in Ireland and has, it is believed here, caused a revolution in favor of home rule in England and Scotland.
 Arising out of tragic shooting outrage at farmstead in a remote district near Broadford, County Clare, was a charge preferred before the local bench against man of the farming class named Cotter, of having murdered Mrs. OMara, wife of a farmer. A deposition made by de- ceased's husband was read. In it he de- scribed how he and his wife and family and two neighbors were seated around the fire talking, when the door was opened and the fatal shot fired. Witness was seated opposite the door, by the fire He heard an explosion, and the door was opened little. Immediately after the explosion the door opened more, as 6 from the wind, and he saw a man with a brown coat and cap. He did not see any gun. OMara now added that he rushed towards the door, and as he did so man leaned in over the door and put his hand to catch the hasp to close 1t. He saw the man distinctly. It was accused He had clear view of the left side of his face, when he bent over the door. There could have been nobody else at the door between the time that he heard the explosion and the time that he saw Cotter. Cross examined as to why he did not say this the first time that he had made a deposition, witness said that he was afraid he would be shot if he did or that he would have to sell his farm and leave the country. Asked why he said it now, he replied that he de- termined to tell the truth When he saw how the murder was denounced through out the country that gave him courage, and he said he would tell exactly what he saw No other witness was examined and Cotter was remanded in custody.
 
 Durin gthe past year there has been a slight advance mated in the rate of wages paid to agricultural laborers in Ireland, estimated at about from Sd. to Is. per week. The advance in the rate of wages paid to casual laborers is attributed to a scarcity of supply consequent on emil grafton and other causes. In districts where direct road labor is employed thls

A SAVANNAH READER.

My Dear Sir: A friend loaned me
the October, 1911, issue of your
Magazine, that l might read the
'Jesuitical" or. oath taken by
Roman Catholic Priests.
To say that this Hoath" is diaboli-
cal. is too mild term. Surely none
but Ellis Satanic Majesty" could
have dictated such a devilish thing.

terry of Iniquity.''

1T MATTERS NOT.

1t is of no consequence whether
there was or was not, an agreement
to let the Harvester trust go with
out prosecution when Col. Roosevelt
was President. The great fact is
that it was let alone. 1t was orga-
nized by the efforts of Mr. George
w. Perkins.
Now Mr.. Perkins appears as one
of the inner circle Of managers of
the Roosevelt campaign and con-
tributor in this State alone of the
sum of SIS, 900 to the fund for the
primaries of the State The ordi-
nary plain man says that common
gratitude should lead Mr.. Perkins
to give up some of his money as he
did
Another $4,000 contributor to
the T. R. fund in the State was Mr..
Frank A. Munsey, who is reputed to
be largely interested in U. S. Steel.
And Mr.. Mccormick is another and
he is reputed to be large investor
in what are known as "the interests. "
No one can question the right of
these men, and many more like
them, to put money into the Roose-
Welt campaign, but it is hardly a
good way to get the confidence of
the country for battle after the
convention.
1t looks queer, also, to see such
men financing the Roosevelt side and
he processing to be the man of the
people, and the dear people, alone

expressed by Tom Watson in The

Catholics not to desert Mr. Under

Wilson workers to prejudice them.
Il am unqualifedly in favor of
Mr.. UnderWood's nomination for
President, declared Mr.. O'Byrne.
And l am very earnest in my advo-
cacy of him. [ believe without a

'The fact that Mr.. Watson is sup
porting Mr.. Underwood does not
drive me away from my advocacy of
his nomination. I know that Mr.,
Underwood is liberal and broad
minded and does not share the mar

gated this rumor and have found
that it is utterly without founda-

wood managers in this state have no
idea of naming Mr. Watson one of

NO TRUTH IN THIS, EITHER.
Savannah, Ga.

Dear Sir: Having read after you
for the past Is or 20 years, and
knowing you to be a man that could
prove anything you say, would like
to put you wise on a rumor that is
being circulated around here, by one
Rev. J. w. Butts, Of Atlanta, who
says that you are the closest-6sted
man in the State when it comes to
missions, whether it be Home, State
or Foreign. He also says there is
church in your county that was away
behind with their pastor and the
building needed some repairs badly
and that they wrote you for dona-
ton, or that you would come and
make an address, they to charge a
small fee for admission, and that
you wrote them that you would come
for $500, and no less. Believing this
to be false, would like for you to
answer through the Jeffersonian.

uUST ANOTHER PACK OF LIES,
ON MR. WATSON.

QN 1axs. WATSON.
Dear Sir: Do You know a little
Baptist preacher by the name OF r.
L. Bolton who is pastor of the Mil
len Rapti3t church? If so, you need
not number him among your friends.
I heard him prosecuting you ON the
streets of Millen last Monday morn
ing. he made it point to go from
one crowd to another, and give them
a bad history of Tom Watson. 1t
was the first time that I had ever
Eaet Mr.. Bolton, and must confess
that 1t shocked me to hear Bap-1
list minister prosecute any one as he
did you. l am a Baptist myself, but
he certainly didn't impress me as
being an ideal Christian, though he
has the rep Of being a pretty good
preacher, but I must say that could
Eot believe what he told about you.
He said that he went to see you to
talk with you on the subject of mis-
sions. Said that he had a statement
from you denying there being a
Diety, said that he asked you WHY
you did not quit the church, your
reply was that your wife had advised
young men, you could not afford to
do it. He said that your statement
to him was confidential, though he
could talk it, but could not publish
it. He said that he knew your stand
ing in your home town and county,
and that the better class of people
did not respect you at all, said that
you were a coward and would not
stick to anything. That you had
been run in the hole by every one
that you had ever attacked. Said
that DR.. Broughton challenged you
for debate on the subject of mis-
sions and you refused to debate with
him. Said that you could find moth
ing against Woodrow Wilson, except
that he had a Catholic secretary, as
il that was anything. He said that
he was away last spring, and a
friend wrote him that some one was
lurking around your house trying to
get an opportunity to kill you, his
reply to his friend was that he could
not believe that any one could be so
extravagant as to waste load of
ammunition on such a thing as Tom
Watson. These may not be the exact
words Of the preacher, but it is
little of the substance of it. I could
not begin to tell all that he said.
From all that I have read after you,
I have always Judged you to be a
Christian gentleman. You are q
man who is capable of enlightening
the people, if they would only read
after you, but some are SO prejudiced
until they will not read your litera-
ture, or go to hear you speak.
Some one will have to tell me that
you are an infdel besides r. L. Boil
ton before I will believe it. I trust
that you may live long, to advocate
Home Missions, and to fight the Cath
olics, and to keep on doing a lot of
other good things that you are doing.
Your friend,
