en- Thursday, May !, the Alphian
Literary society held special initiation
exercises. The following candidates
were initiated into the mysteries and
pleasures of the Alphian circle: Mar
tina Boyce, Irma Conner, Mildred Crab
tree, Hazel McGinnis, Lillian Harm,
Beatrice Keagle, Cecile Mcpherson,
Dorothy Smith. At the conclusion of
the interesting ceremonies dainty re-
freshments were served. rs: ..
The game of Monday afternoon be-
tween the northern normal industrial
school team of. Aberdeen and the local
school team developed into a comedy
Of errors. Both teams showed how.
easy it is to miss balls batted into
their hands. The locals were handi-
capped by the absence of their star
pitcher, Bentley. The defeat, however,
was due to poor support, rather than
poor pitching. The totals show for
Glendale IL runs 10 hits for a total
of IL bases inc 16 errors, while Aber-
deem got 13 runs, II hits for 8, total
Of ~ bases and IL errors. Strutz Of
the M team struck out 8 batsrnen,
gave T. pass, hit 1 batter and allowed
z hits during his 6 innings on the slab.
Joe Bentley struck out the 3 men fac
ing him in his n inning of work,
while Sauer was touched for A hits,
struck out 4 and hit / man in the 2
innings he worked. The redeeming
feature Of the local teams work was
their batting. The score by earned
runs would have been 8 to DIN Ellen
dale's favor.

A CALL FOR ALL PATRIOTIC
CITIZENS.

We, the undersigned citizens Of
Kissimmee and Osceola county, be-
lieve in the liberties for which our
forefathers fought and bled in es-
tablishing the government of Amer
ica--a free country, free speech and
free press. The Roman Catholics,
knights of Columbus and other
Catholic organizations are now pros
ecuting the Hon. Thos. e. Watson
in the Federal courts for printing in
his Watson's Magazine the same
stuff that they print in their books
and teach in their ministerial
schools, and have sent hundreds of
thousands of the copies through the
mail the world over.
We are donating to this grand, pa
triotic man because it is a fight for
freedom for all American people.
This money is to be deposited in
the State Bank of Kissimmee and
subject to Mr.. Watson's draft: in
case he should not need it in this
suit, shall be returned to each sub

THESE FRIENDS HELP THE JEFF
CIRCULATE.

Dear Mr. Watson: My husband
gets the Jeffersonian every week
and it is a welcome visitor in our
home. We try to see who can get
to the mail box first. The day that
Gas my boy says) we are looking for
Mr.. Watson; we have been taking
the JEFF for some time, and If we
were able would take all your pub
hcations. I think you the bravest
man | know, to make the fight
against the Roman Catholics, and
know all Baptists and Masons ought
to come to your aid. l pray that
God may spare your life and give
you strength to conquer the enemy.
My husband is a Baptist preacher,
and he sure does fight the Catholics.
Last fall at our association he had
the piece read before the body he
cut from the Progressive Democrat,
ga Catholic gets Rampant" | tell
you it reused some Of their dander
when those threats were read that
were made right here in Georgia.
My husband is with you On foreign
missions. He breaches in the poor
country churches, and if they give
him anything he takes 1t, and if they
don't it's all right. He don't believe
in preacher charging for his serv-
ice, and he sure don't believe in
sending all the money to foreign
fields and home people suffering.
Mr.. Watson / pray you may come
out in your trial all right l don't
see how they can convict you, when
this book has been going through
the mail for years.
When we read the jeff I give it to
my neighbors, and all have sent a
lot of them up North, sent two big
rolls of them to Cincinnati, Ohio, to
be read.
Mr.. Watson 1 could write you
a page or two about that Con-
fessional box, but oh my, forget I
am only a woman. You know most
men think woman fit for nothing
but hOusework

HOPES THE LORD AND EVERY
GOOD AMERICAN WILL
STAND BY T.. Il, w.

Dear Sir: I am casting in here
with my little mite of one dollar to
help you in the fight against that in
dictment for which you are accused
Of sending obscene literature through
the U. S. mails. l trust that the
Good Lord and every true American
citizen will stand by you against this
foreign Catholic crew, which seems
to be inimical toward, and trying
to undermine the liberties of our
people and nation.
We are not left to guess at what
Roman Catholicism has done for the
people IN the past, and Judging them
by their own records, we may we'll
know what they would now do, if
only the reins Of government were
in their hands; then it behooves us
to lay hold of every opportunity to
throttle this menace to the liberties
that have been so dearly bought and
paid for by the shedding of the blood
OF our forefathers.
If l was able financially, I would
give you a thousand dollars as free
Iy as one, to help you fight this good
fight. 1t is time Protestants should
be waking up and concentrating their
forces against this unholy power
that is truly and surely binding our
feet in the shackles, where the SCRIP
ent's tooth will apply the deadly
poison sooner or later, if this plant
is not rooted up.
Yours sincerely,
Wise, Va. J. M. HILL.

WHAT MIR. AKERMAN'S paw"
MIGHT HAVE DONE.

Dear Sir: / wrote you several
months ago stating that | had de-
posted in one Of our local banks
here one hundred dollars to aid you
in combating this persecution which
is being waged against you by Taft,
Roman Catholics and prosecuting
Attorney "Acherkingman."
l am sending you enclosed in this
letter check for twenty-five dollars
TO be used for that purpose, and re-
quest you to draw on me for the
remainder, seventy-ive dollars, in
the event you need it. 1t seems that
only the poorer class of people are
aiding you in your fight for freedom
of speech, good morals and decency,
judging from the small contributions
given for that purpose as published
in the Jeffersonian. will wager
one hundred dollars with any Ro-
man Catholic that you will never be
convicted on that charge by any
Georgia jury, and will give any man
$500 to get that bet for me. I
knew Col. A. T. Alderman, father of
the prosecutor in your case during
his several years Of residence in
Gainesville, and know him to have
been one among the most honored
and respected citizens of that entire
section of country. Were he living
today he would put that boy of his
across his knee and spank him for
the part he is taking against you.
1t is hard to imagine how it is posi-
bic for degenerate son to spring
from the loins of worthy sire.
The fact that these rich aristo-
cratic church members and we'll paid
preachers have refused to render
you assistance in this TRADE against
you by these demons, is good evil
dence that the kind of religion they
possess is not worth tinker's dam.
[ am satisfied that your case will
never reach the jury, because after
Alderman has presented all the facts
and lies for the prosecution, Judge
Speer will say, there being no evil
dence to convict, this case is dis
missed, Call the next"

ANOTHER OF THE OLD GUARD
POPS.

Dear Sir: You will have to par
don me for intruding upon your val
liable time long enough to express
my admiration for your courage in
standing up and defending the right.
When you had finished that cam
paign against those INSCRIPTIONS do
nothing rascals who betrayed us in
Congress [ thought that your great
est work was completed. But I was
mistaken, although I still think that
was one of your best works up to
that time. The services you rend-
cred US by helping to beat pussy
foot" out Of that place, which had
once been coupled by that great
statesman, Alexander H. Stevens,
long since caused thousands to look
on you as their best friend. Hav-
ing made the political tricksters flee
to the tall timber, you began to I'M
cover the rOttenneSs of the Roman
Catholic Hierarchy. Never, since
Christ drove the money changers
from the temple, have the people be-
held such a fight against hypocrisy.
Unable to refute the awful charges,
they are trying to crush into silence
the one who made those charges.
They are going to do their level best
to have you imprisoned, but they
will fail. They may pack the jury,
they may bride or intimidate the
judge, but if they place stripes upon
you and take you to the prison, they
will carry you over the dead bodies
Of hundreds of liberty-loEing men
Of Georgia.
Now, Mr.. Watson, we are going to
ask you to do us a favor If you
possibly find out the exact date when
your trial will begin in Augusta, and
would be so kind as to let US know
either in the Weekly jeff Or by letter
We will appreciate it very much. I
am doing this at the request of the
"Old Guard Pops" of this town and
community. These men are true
blue. They glory in the fact that
they followed you in the bitter fight
OF the Nineties. Their unlimited
confidence in you can be shown by
the way they, at your request, gave
little Joe Brown a handsome ma
Jority of votes over Smith, the NOM
Tree. These are the men who stood
by you in the days gone by, and they
desire for you to know that they are
ready to stand by you now So if
you will let them know when your
trial will begin, they will be on
hand, if they have to come afoot.
With best wishes for your success,
/ beg to remain yours very truly,
