pay fine of $4,000 and spend five years Of
my life in a penitentiary.
All of this is brought wildly to mind by
recent events
a. Ex-priest Jeremiah Crowley was bru-
tally assaulted and beaten, after he had
delivered a lecture, in hired hall, against
Roman Catholicism.
That lecturer Is not n0ac occurring.
(2.) At Carbonate, Pennsylvania, Bap-
list church was invaded, the congregation
terrorlzed and broken up, some of the mem
bers beaten; and the lecturer fled for his life.
That 2ecturero IS not m0e0 lecturiaag
(3.) When the Protestant speaker Dancey
went to Anoka to speak against popery, the
Catholic mob beat up and kidnapped man
whom they took for Dancey; and the speech
against Romanism was not delivered
AZ When Rev. Otis L. Sturgeon went to
Denver, Colorado last oceeh, and delivered
lecture against popery, gang Of Romanists
went into the hotel where he was stopping,
took him ont, ard beat him up.
They broke his nose, disfguring him no
doubt for life; and inflicted such other inju-
ries as necessitated his going to hospital for
treatment.
Could such an outrage have been COM
mitted, if the hotel people and the police had
not been in COLLISION with the mob?
(5) When Rev. DR.. ". L. Pickard of
Savannah, Georgia, began series of scholarly
and dlspassiOnate sermons against Romanism,
he received anonymous letters threatening has
life.
Savannah is the city where the priests
stirred mob to kill ex-priest Slattery.
If the troops had not been called out to
protect Slattery, the Romanists would have
murdered him.
So, you see, the spirit Of popery is exactly
the same that it was when religious murder
blackened Europe with massacres, tortures,
foul dungeons, blazing piles, and fanatical
assassins.
What ought yow to do?
The ordinary processes Of the law cannot
deal with the problem. The judges are afraid
and the police are Catholics-to q calculated
eGtent.
What must you do?
Put the local priests on notice that "aohat-
scorer measure ye mete to others shall be
melted to yOU also"
Apply the law of ZETALIATION!
Let the priest know what to expect Then,
he will quit instigating murder

THE .JEFFERGONTAN
Why Did Senator Smith of GeOr-
gia Try TO ASSassinate
the Parcels Post?

Gnl1lS Say against senator Cn1lCn.
You know what my opinion of him is, and
you know what charges | made against him,
IN this paper.
By the way, please remember that he has
aever dared to face the people since those
charges qCere made.
He hid himself behind his rubber-stamp
Committee, and then sneaked his way through
his obedient Legislature, and thus got the
chance to appoint himself Senator.
The people of Georgia did not elect him to
the Senate. He and his city politicians turned
that trick.
But, knowing human nature as you do, it
is natural for you to believe that [ might
criticise the man unjustly
May [ beg you to remember that for nearly
two years, [ haven't had a word to say about
him?
He had got to the Senate, and it was no
use to keep pecking at him.
IF he as Senator, proved true to the people,
and did good work for them In that high
office, he was entitled to the credit. It was
nothing more than fair that he should have
the fullest opportunity to show his metal and
his c0lors.
Therefore, [ let him alone, not seeking to
hamper, or handicap him in the slightest
degree.
No matter what thought such man as
he would do in the Senate, refrained from
predicting.
Now, you have his record he himself made
it: official stenographers took down his
speeches and votes: the Governments public
printer published it.
So there it is, undeniable, unimpeachable,
indestructible
What does that official record show?
0) That on August 9TH, 1912, he spoke
for and voted for Ship Subsidy to the YES
sells Of the great railroads and of the Ship
building Trust.
He wanted them to have the use of our
Canal free of charge when that Canal cost
you nearly five hundred millions of dollars,
and when we are honor bound by Treaty to
charge all vessels Of all nations the same tolls
of S1.20 per ton.
That's what Senator Smith did in 1919.
He now takes the opposite side
Why? BECAUSE IT IS ELECTION
YEAR.
Elect him, if you like, and he will flop
back to his first position, and vote the Sub
sidy that the big Railroads demand.
(20 Senator Smith spoke for the Parcels
Post; and then afterwards did his level best
to win corporation support by knitting the
Parcels Post.
In former article I quoted against him
what was said by such impartial papers as the
Baltimore San, the Postmaster EVe4yaohere,
and the Dallas, Texas, Dispatch.
Those periodicals have nothing against
Senator Smith. They were simply giving the
facts, and expressing their indignation that
Georgia Senator should try to do that sort of
treacherous work for the railroads and the
express companies.
Has Senator Smith tried to haze those three
publications retract?
NO: He HAS NOT.
He knows better than to try it. He is rely

Washington, Feb. 1S.-A barefaced attempt to
assassinate the peoples successful parcel post has
developed in the United States Senate.
In the United States Senate, of course!
Two alleged progressive Senators are the ring
leaders in the scheme which, it allowed to pass
would be worth untold millions Of dollars to the
express companies.
Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia, and Joseph
L. Bristow of Kansas, are joint authors OF the
amendment to the Postoffice Appropriation Dill
which aims to kill Parcel Post and bury it.

head of Alabama, Claude A. Swanson OF Virginia,
Nathan P. Bryan of Florida, William E. Chiffon
of West Virginia, William o. Bradley of Ken
lucky, and ohm w. Weeks Of Massachusetts.
Opposite the picture Of Senator Smith of
Georgia, are the words:
THIS IS HOKE SMITH, ALLEGED PROGRESS
SIVE FROM GEORGIA. He STANDS FOR The THE
DEATH OF PARCEL POST WE PUT THE
FINGER ON HIM-YOU DO THE REST.
The paper also has picture Of Senator
Bristow of Kansas, and opposite to 1t are the
words:
HERE IS ANOTHER ALLEGED PROGRESS
SIVE, SENATOR JOE BRISTOW OF KANSAS.
HIS DAGGER IS STUCK IN PARCEL POST.
GOOD FRIEND OF THE EXPRESS HOGS.
SWAT HIM!
Have Senators Bristow and Smith cor
rected these statements? Have either Of these
would-be assassins of the Parcels Post risen
to a question Of personal privilege, an the
Senate, and denied the charges?
No. and they ao5Zl not.
Why not? Because they are guilty, and
the Senate's official record convicts them.
IF Senator Smiths partisans in Georgia
have any doubts about the matter, let them
ask hana to rise an the Senate, and deTay these
charges.
They will never get him to do it.
And If he is elected to return to the Sen
ate, he will renew his attempt to stab the Par
cells Post
Don't you doubt it. The corporations are
supporting him, and the corporations make
no mistakes in choosing their men for office.
You must remember that the Express Com
panies came 40it1Saqo one cote Of killing your
Parcels Post.
They will not give up the fight. They will
renew it in the next Congress.
And right now they are trying to elect to
the next Congress the candidates they can
count on.

FAMOUS SOCIALIST
 IS ASSASSINATED

PARIS, Aug. 1.-Jean Jaures, lead CT of the socialist party in the cham Der of deputies and, perhaps, the most famous socialist in the world, was as sassinated last night in cafe in this city.
 The assassin is Raoul William, wnc is aged go and is the son of a court official at Rheims. He was captured immediately but the police experi- enced the utmost difficulty in prevent ing the crowd from lynching him. It is supposed that William is insane but an examination of his mental condi- tion has not yet been made.
 A most touching sight was witness ed when the body of the murdered man was being brought to his home. Hundreds of his comrades followed it weeping. He was probably the most beloved of all the really great sociai- ist leaders of Europe and was man of brilliant intellect. This was ac- knowledged even by those who see only nonsense in socialistic principles.

work have been limited at the college
until this week, when foundry was
opened in the kitchen of the temper

for the new Bernard Sbisa hall.
The old mess hall was constructed
of galvanized steel and a concrete

The removal of the foundry equip

also.
A big cupola, or melting furnace,
has been acquired, and other new
equipment includes a tumbling MILL

be undertaken as soon as furnace
can be obtained.
The foundry work is under the di.
rection of G. w. Hanson, who has
had long experience in foundry work.
At present the boys will engage in
pattern making and casting and will
finish their models in the college ma.
chine shops. A record of the charge
of each heat and the quality OF the
product will be maintained and the
boys will be taught the inside of the

for agricultural machinery and work
of that character will be conducted.
Students of the mechanical engineer
