MIR. GROW HUNTING FOR THE
FOOL KILLER.

Dear Sir; I have wanted to say
few things for long time, and I
also enclose paragraph clipped
from the Florida Baptist Witness
published at Arcadia, Fla, handed
me by our Baptist minister here.
You may have seen it. There are
lots of such, as the fellow that
moulded that paragraph. Since the
election last week I have been won
dering and trying to solve a prob
lem, so I have concluded to just call
on you to help me out. What has
become of the Fool Killer? Has he
got disguised with the big job be-
fore him and struck for higher
wages, or gone to Europe to operate
there for a while? Any information
will be appreciated by your Uncle,

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE

for selling cotton for less than IL
cents. The legislature could help
that matter out, and the farmers too,
also the wealth to the U. S. that this
law would increase in products
raised here; where under the pres
ent system the farms will lay out.
There has never been an over
production of products raised in the
U. S. There is an over-production
of swindlers to beat their living out
of the poor farmers and claim Eu-
rope as the cause Of low prices. Why
not make the farmers laws protect
ing the worth, and value, and price,
to his products that he raises to feed
all the people, SO he can live decent,
and let live decnt.
Mr.. Farmer, the European war has
nothing to do with the cotton that
you raised in the U. S. to sell to
the U. S. cotton mills, and consum-
ers Of cotton. Why not the consum-
ers of cotton pay us the worth of it
and buy from us farmers at II cents
per pound lint. Respectfully to all
the readers Of the Jeffersonian.

DON'T YOU BOTHER THIS
FARMERl

Dear Sir: l have been reading
after you ever since knew you, and
I sure do enjoy it. Now brother,
don't get mad. I was turned out of
the Baptist church a few years ago
for talking this, but have been re-
instated, and am in good standing.
If we want to destroy tree, we
dig it up by the roots. Isn't all of
this about the Pope Of Rome caused
by the lie the Devil told in the Gar
den of Eden, when he said thou
shalt not surely die, but shall be as
Gods.
Now, as to Mr. Hoke Smith. I
think he has been driven out from
the Lord and gone to the land of
Nod, where Cain went when he knew
his wife. Now own a little farEA
down here in Richmond, and if he
sends anybody down here to tell me
what to plant I shall tell them that
[ can tend to my own business, with
the old woman to help me.

A GEORGIA COTTON FARMER
MAKES a GOOD SUGGESTION.

Dear Sir: Please allow me space
in your paper to show that the farm
ers have no legal protection on what
they raise to sell in the United States.
I have asked Congress and Senate
to enact laws to protect the farmer
on the price Of cotton he raises in
the u. S. to sell to the cotton mills
and consumers of cotton here The
farmers can not raise cotton for less
than II cents per pound lint, and
make a decent living, This Govern
ment or the cotton mills and con-
sumers should advertise how much
cotton they will take yearly, in their
county papers for 80 days in Jan
uary each year. Then the farmer
can cut acreage to supply the de-
mand. We farmers are rot raising
cotton in Europe; and Europe has
not the authority to control the
price of our cotton. The u. S.
should fix up her side right and pay
us the worth of our cotton.
There will be thousands of acres
of land that will lay out next year
on account Of such low prices: and
no legal protection for the farmer
to live decent on these prices of his
products at present.
There should be laws fixed this
way. Not allowing any lint cotton
to sell for less than - cents per
pound in the IT, S. 1t should be a
felony to sell lint cotton for less
than II cents, and both persons
should serve three years in the
changing, both seller and buyer,

Dear Sir: I want to ask a COM
ment Of you. l saw few days ago
where some one was boosting for
the Belgians. They went so far as
to say that Georgia should bring
them over here and give them the
use of teh land, free of charge, for
at least one year Mr.. Watson, is
there a land renter in the State of
Georgia who has had the use of
land free of any charge? I am a
person of 81, and l can recollect
since before my teens, and l cannot
recollect of my father filling the soil
of free land. Why don't the big
land owners try and help their home
folks before they go ahead, and then
see if things would not look better?

BUT THE POPE. HAS PERSUADED
THE KAISER TO EXONERATE
THE PRIESTS OF LOUVAIN.

Dear Sir I notice in the state
ment given out by the German gov
eminent concerning the destruction
Of LOuvain, a few incidental express
giOns upon which I wish to comment,
by your permission Of space. This
report states in one place, "depots
Of arms were found, where to each
gun was attached the name of the
citizen to be armed I find in an
other part Of this report the follow
ing words; THE priests We're caught
handing out ammunition to the peo-
pie" This report also goes on to
state, that arms were not carried
openly, that women and young girls
took part in the fight, and blinded
our wounded, sticking their eyes
out" 1t seems to me in this general
report, [ can see a Verification Of
what you have SO earnestly and I'M
ceasingly claimed, concerning the
Roman Catholics storing away arms,
for use in cases of emergency. It
seems to me that | can see those
Roman Catholic priests bringing out
those guns from cOncealment, and
conveying them to their rightful
owners (wh0se names are on them)
through the Catholic women and
girls. That is why the reporter
claimed that they were not carried
openly" | conceive the idea that
this unlawful uprising of the sub
dued Belgians, was not of Govern
ment" sanction, but of Jesuit origin.
l offer this suggestion for the con-
sidcration Of your readers, with
your sanction.

THREE KILLED BY TRAIN
Philadelphians on Auto Van Meet
Death at Unguarded Crossing,

The removal of watchman by the
Reading Railway Company from its cross
ing at Shore Road, near Pleasantville, N.
j., cost the lives of three Phiadelphians
when an auto van of the Pyle Storage
Company. 5125 Market street, was struck
by passenger train last night
The dead are Edward Z. Pyle, Harry
Kane and William Walker, the latter n
Negro! They we're unable to see the ap-
proach of the train because the crossing
Is hidden from sight by buildings and a
high embankment
Three days ago the watchman, who
formerly worked several hours later. was
ordered to quit work at 9 o'clock every
night, according to residents of Pleasant
vile. He Is said to be paid 12 cents an
hour.
The truck was returning from Atlantic
City with the three men when It was
struck. An express from Camden to At
!antic City flashed over the crossing Just
as the driver of the auto van started to
cross the tracks The van rammed the
tender OF the engine and was overturned
and wrecked, the occupants being in
stantly killed.
Witnesses of the accident declared than
although the engineer of the train blew
his whistle few seconds before reach
ing the crossing the signal bell did not
ring until after the train had passed.
The noise OF the whistle was drowned
for those on the truck by the sound of
the motor.
Passengers in the rear, coaches were
showered with spllnters and broken glass.
The engineer did not know anything of
the accident until he got the signal from
the conductor to stop.
Pyle and his companions stopped at
a hotel in Pleasantville for their supper,
and the scene of the accident is not
more than block away from the hos
telry. The crash occurred at 9.2l o'clock,
81 minutes after the watchman was taken
Off. Residents of the town say that un-
til three days ago the watchman worked
much later, but he was ordered to quit
his post earlier to save expenses.
Coroner Harley of Atlantic County,
who lives in the town, reached the scene
a few minutes later and hastily impan-
eled a jury. The Inquest will be held
SATURDAY.

money. On the floor OF the office was
found note which read:
''I consider myself damaged to the ex-
tent of S2O.OOO."
The officers say II Is in the handwrit-
ing of Gilmore though II Is unsigned.
Gilmore was member of a well-to- do
family. Sinclair was connected with It

poslt Bank and is one OF the biggest
