Frank is the Bellwether.

Quite generally the democratic
papers follow the lead of the Fair
mont Sentinel in supporting the gov
ernor in his campaign for state regu-
lation of public utilities. This
seems to indicate growing dis
regard of the democratic axiom that
the closer the government is to the
people the better it is likely to be.

The Goldfish Aristocracv.

Before some people get too alfred
stylish and aristocratic, they might
recall that perhaps their ancestors
came to America as steerage pas
sengers, and some of them not so
very long ago, and ''pa and ma"
may have slipped their coffee from a
saucer and ate pie with knife, if
indeed they had pie at all. Some of
these upstart aristocrats are quite
disgusting, to say the least but
every community has them, and like
the poor, they will always be with
us.-Browns Valley Tribune.

Dear Mr.. Watson: 1t is a little
late, but l could not stand for my
place to not be represented in your

can't lose the time. There are sew
eral here that will go if we can get
any idea when it will come up. Try

you are we'll and ready for the fight.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
AGREES WITH Il. e. w. ON SOME
THINGS, BALKS AT OTHERS.

Dear Sir For a long time I had
contemplated to write you an epistle
in which [ meant to express my SEN
tlments on your writings on conVic-
lions. | have read after you since
1897, and am a subscriber to the
Weekly and the Magazine. Will say
that l agree with you on foreign
missions to T. l greatly admire
your writings on slavery and the ne
gro question, such as your reply to
Bishop Potter, Robert Hunter, Ar
thur Brisbane, Andrew Carnegie and
others. Your estimate on Abraham
Lincoln is masterpiece; your es-
say on the Vulture is poetry in prose
in fact if I am able to judgei, it
is a classic. Let me speak once more
on slavery: [ was born in 1877, but
were I living and old enough to un-
derstand the situation in 1860 as I
now do, | would have been a copper
head. Now for the negro. You
seem to think that the greater ma
jority Of the whites of the North
are negro-lovers; in this you are
greatly mistaken. If racial, social,
and political equality will ever be-
come issues to be settled by a refer
endum vote the black man will be
disfranchised. l know this from
mingling with men and events. AS
for socialism, here is where we dis
agree, but only in name. You chose
to call a principle or measure JEFF
fersonian or ante-bellum Democra-
cy, or Populism. I cell it socialism,
or true Democracy; in fact you are
the greatest socialist writer of them
all, but you don't seem to know it.
Now don't start to talk back. You
know you fooled Col Dick Maple,
and others.
Last but not least, we come to Ro-
manism, that Jesuitical, hydro-he
ed monster, the deadliest menace
to the human race. Here we stand
shoulder to shoulder in fighting it
to the last ditch. AS proof of my
sympathies I enclose the remittance
of $500 as tangible evidence of my
sincerely in lending a hand to help
strengthen your defense fund. Your
friend, w. J. HOLZERMAN.

ANOTHER DOLLAR ITO HELP
TELL THE TRUTH"

MY Dear Mr.. watson: 1t is with
pleasure I learn of your improve
ment in health. May God spare you
for many years to make this great
fight for right, known to this world
as the greatest. I enclose you one
dollar for telling the truth on this
man of sin, done in secret. / believe
this dollar the greatest gift to the
cause of God that [ have ever given.
Your charge against this man Of sin
in secret bears out Gods teaching
in the Bible-our Bible here abroad
in our land and goes through the
mails. What does it teach in regard
to the man Of sin in secret? Let's
compare some lessons taught by
God:
Cain slew his brother Abel in Sc
cret.
King Ahab and Isabel, the queen,
plotted to rob the poor man of his
home in secret.
David took advantage of Euriah
by taking his wife in secret.
Remember the assault Of Poti-
phars wife upon Joseph? Many
more could be named.
Then, ii you have done what God
has done time and again why should
this world want to make you de-
nounce Gods plan land make you
amenable to court, and not God?
1t does seem to me that a man
who would put the weight of a straw
in your way would choke God if in
his power, if he was here for send
ing us such a Bible. God always
sent His messengers to point out this
man of sin, who did his deeds in
secret. The record of God is open
to this world, that ali men may
know you were carrying out Gods
plan in exposing this man of sin in
secret. Why should a child of God
fear light? The ones who fear light
are the ones who's deeds are evil. If
those charges were not true, why
those books in the library at Wash
ington, D. c.? The reason your in
dictment was found God may have
so ordered that this truth should go
out to this world in time to save our
country and our people. Remember
the betrayer of Christ: his hands
we're upon the table with Him. So
when it is known that the ones who
claim to love Christ as you do may
prove to be the Judas of this world
and God using you as an instrument
in His hands to show this man of
sin to this world.
Rejoice when your fight comes,
that you are only carrying on the
fight outlined by God. You must
feel deep down in your heart God
am proud to extol your teaching
to this world, and you can truthfully
say you have fought a good fight,
and now you leave all to His care
and keeping. May God bless you
and yours. l remain yours truly,
Girard, Ga. r. w. DAVID.
