Infanticide in Nunneries.


To the Editor of the Protestant Observer
Dear SIRE the contribution by cd. j. in
your issue for January, headed "Infanticide in
Nunneries" in which he brings to light the fact
that the Rev. j. Richardson LII B. states in his
work, "RecollectiOns Of the Last Half Century,
Vol. H., PIP 49, 116, that upwards of four hun
dred skeletons Of infants buried in the soil of a.
convent at Paris were discovered, [ remember a

place, the wall Of which very thick, in a farm
house in Yorkshire, which had originally been a
convent, large cavity in the wall found full
of babies bones. Who can imagine what fearful
anguish must have been endured by of the
inmates of these sealed prisons? Were they all
willing accomplces in these CHASTITY crimes?
What must have been their awakening when they
found that by taking the veil they had actually
shut themselves up with the devil, and not, as
they had been led to believe, shut him out. The
wonder is that in these enlightened days Roman
Catholics themselves do not insist upon the fire.
Quent inspection of converts. If there is nothing
to conceal, nothing but good come of their
inspection by outsiders. Yours truly,

With this we must recall the sermon preached
early IN January by a Belgian priest who said:
Yes, my sisters, for it is to you alone that
desire to speak now in the name of the God of
vengeance who condemns and of the God of pity
who absolves. You will not wish to perpetuate
the denominations of which you have been the
innocent and holy victims. The dregs of dark
ness must not appear in the light of day. Let
each OF you become the pitiless Herod of the
opprobious line which the Infamous Amaekites
have raised up in their bloody paths. Prescribe

and criminal tares which would dishonOr one
day the pure wheat Of our plains upon which
blows the breath of liberty 1t is I, the man of

The money sharks are in control of both
the old parties, and they are determined that

They are determined that the Government

lends money to the national bankers
There is no benefit to the farmer in the
Regional Bank system.
Really, you say all that can be said for
Rural Credits, when you say that it would
give the farmer square deal, emancipate
him from the thralldom of the banks. put
him on equality with the national bankers,
give him fair share of the money which the
Government lends, and fits the loan to the
necessities of his business by giving him
long credit.

(CoMMENT.)
Readers of The Jeffersonian we'll remem-
Der that [ pleaded with the farmers to hold
their cotton.
I could see no reason for the drop to cents,
and [ believed that there was a gigantic con-
spiracy of the capitalists to force the growers
to sell.
With all the earnestness possible, I urged
the farmer to make has Oacn Stay-t0oO, just as
the bankers and European governments were
doing.
Their creditors could do nothing but sue,
and the courts could not render judgment on
amounts over 500 until next fall
That gave the farmers ample time to get
the benefit of the Spring rise, which [ felt
was sure to come.
But | did not then suspect what we all
now know, toWit:
That this Democratic Administration was
an active partner in the Wall Street con,
spiracy against the Southern planter, and
was financing the colossal gamble of the men
who bought the cotton cat starvation prices"
Nevertheless, [ could see that Europe was
eagerly taking as much OF our cotton as ever,
and the information came to me under the
seal of confidence, early last Fall, that the
cotton which was bought for cents in Geor-
gia was selling for Is cents in Germany.
Then, again, called on the farmers to take
my word for the facts, and to hold the
cotton.
The Jeffersonian told them that they were
absolute masters of the situation, if they
would just keep up their courage, and not be
bulldozed into ruinous selling at cents.
Many of them lost heart and sold; but
many of them believed that knew what I
was talking about, and they held on
Do you know why Europe is crazy to get
the cotton?
1t is because every shot of one of their
biggest guns requires bale Of cotton.
The smokeless powder they use is made, in
part, out of lint cotton, and it takes bale to
make enough powder for one shot out of
those monster guns.
New powder plants to manufacture this
kind Of powder are going up in this country
every month.
If the war continues, there is no telling
how high cotton may 90.
Right now, the mills of North Carolina are
declaring dividends of IS per cent.
