FINDS A CURE FOR PELLAGRA
All Skin Eruption Gone, Doctors Now
Convinced Mrs. Vaughn Is
Entirely Well.

Mrs. c. H. Vaughn, Millville, Ark,
writes There is nothing I ever
could do but what I can do it now.
There is no sign Of skin eruption.
One of our local doctors told me that
mys cure was one of the grandest
things that ever happened-not only
for me, but for the whole commu-
nifty, to let them know that there is
a cure for pellagra.'
Cali the doctors that waited on
me are convinced that your remedy
is real cure"
There's the true word from cured
patient. If you have Pellagra or
know of anyone who suffers from
Pellagra it is your duty to consult
the resourceful Baugh1, who has
fought and conquered the dreadful
malady right in the heart of the Pei
lagra belt in Alabama.
The symptoms-hands red like
sunburn, skin peeling off; sore
mouth, the lips, throat and tongue
flaming red with much mucous and
choking; indigestion and nausea;
either diarrhoea or constipation
There is hope. Get Baughn's Big
Free Book on Pellagra, and learn
about the remedy for Pellagra that
has at last been found Address

money is refunded in any case where
the remedy fails to cure. Adyt.

SOME GOOD SUGGESTIONS.

Dear Sir: The country editor of
large and influential Arkansas
sheet, to whom I gave my March
Watson, returned the magazine with
this notation on the margin: II sur
render" meaning that he thought
Leo Frank guilty after having read
your presentation Of the case. I
was in McGehee, Ark, and another
man stated in a most positive and
emphatic manner that he was con-
vinced, after reading Golfers, the
Post Dispatch and other bootlicking
papers, that Frank was innocent and
the victim Of prejudice, mob near
violence etc, and to him L also
passed your magazine for March,
which caused him to reverse his po-
sition and declare his conviction
that Frank is as guilty as crime can
make him. The moral to this is:
The people have no press, never had
and never will, until they put up at
the county seats a paper owned and
absolutely controlled by them as a
medium through which to exchange
their views, register their kicks and
use as big stick generally against
the polluters and corruupters of So
ciety and government My platform
from now on is: Get out niggers;
restricted ownership of land; gov
eminent ownership of the electric
current, and a friendly cooperative
system generally for the benefit of
all the WHITE people, and if that's
socialism or anarchy, I don't care.

A NEW CAROLINA FRIEND.

Dear Sir: Enclosed find P. 0.
money order for one dollar to re-
new my subscription for The Jeffer-
sonian six months, also another new
subscription for six months, accord
ing to list hereWithin. We are, both
old Confederate soldiers. I have
been taking The Jeffersonian several
years and can't do without it, and
have been talking it up every oppor-
tunity, for it is the leading paper in
the fight against papery, the old
mother of harlots, spreading her
denominations over every nation
where she gets the power, for it is
no church at all, and cares nothing
for the souls Of men, but only de-
ludes them for money and temporal
power.
Well you know all this, for | look
upon you as being one of the most
gifted men of the times, by the
sledge hammer blows you give the
Roman octopus and all other corrup-
ton in high places, and I am with
you red hot and still a-heating. But
I don't believe we will ever get any
relief through either one of the old
parties, but we must have a new pa
triotic party, and | would, with you
at the head of it.
God be with you

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE

and all in the name of Roman
Catholicism.
| think that all history will show
that all patriotic deeds done by
Catholics were done for the interest
Of Roman Catholicism, and I know
you can mention numerous such
American patriotic CD deeds, such
as Menendez, which have been done
by Roman Catholics in America, and
I think it would be great for those
who are going into ecstacies over
Bishop Curley to see the other side
of the matter, as others see it, and
as it really is.
Yours admiringly,
JEFFERSONIAN SUBSCRIBER.
P. S.-St Augustine is a great
gathering center for the K. of G.
wonder how long it will be before
the Pope of Rome will be giving
them such orders as the King Of
Spain gave Menendez.
(COmment.)
I saw Curley's hogwash, and read
it with due contempt; but have had
so many things to handle that I
saved him for future day.
I will attend to this smooth liar,
Bishop Curley. T. E. w.

A TYPICAL CASE OF ROMANIST
CRIME

Dear Sir: A few weeks ago your
paper gave a short but concise &C
count of the Scotti-Rouge-Ro
priestly scandal, and this case is
still dragging in the court here, as
you will see from enclosed clipping.
The church and K. of G. are doing
everything in Their power to dis
credit the unfortunate woman. It's
an old saying that when you can
not contradict witness, then abuse
and Witty him. This they are do
ing to the full extent.
Charles I. Denechaud, president
Of the Catholic Federation, was sent
to Chicago to trace the past history
of Mrs. Roth, just as if they could
prove the fact that the woman had
not always led a strictly virtuous
life, would justify the priest in rob-
bling her of $4,000. They can not
deny that the priest, Scott, OBJ
tanned the money from her, and of
that sum Father Rouge secured
$4,000 for his speculations. Mrs.
Roth has ample documents to prove
this.
Scott threatened her that if she
entered suit, he would put her in
the penitentiary, but fled when he
saw she was in earnest, and his
duplicity with her and other women
was about to be exposed His de-
tenders have not dared to produce
him in court, for fear he is the one
who would be put in the peniten-
tiary. The papers here, most of
them being under Catholic infiu-
ence, have given out but vague in
formation about the case, and most
Of that discreditable to the woman.
The Item is the only paper in New
Orleans that has given Mrs. Roth
anything like a fair show.
Yours truly,
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-04-08
THE CATHOLIC MASSACRE OF
PROTESTANTS IN FLORIDA.

Dear Sir: In February, Bishop
Curley, of ST. Augustine, gave a lee
ture in Jacksonville, which was pub
lished and lauded' in the daily pa
pers Of Jacksonville. Curley spoke
of the great patriotism of Roman
Catholics. I expected to see you
make some comment of his lecture,
in The Jeffersonian. But think
you must never have read the lee
ture. | am going to enclose it to
you, for I think you could make a
fine reply.
Bishop CurIey lives in st. Angus
tine, the oldest city in the United
States, and named by Menandez, the
man sent by the King of Spain to
kill and behead all Protestants the
man that murdered Riboutts' men,
not as Frenchmen, but as Luther
ans, letting none escape but those
that professed to be Catholics. This
butchery was done within twelve
miles Of ST. Augustine, at Matanzas,
