InstalIment Of "The Master
Key" and Three Good

"The Master Key" the fascinating
serial drama, which is feature in
itself. is being presented today at the
Orpheum theater. The story was
written by one OF Americas greatest
authors and playwrigtts, John Flem-
ing Wilson. It abounds in thrills and
sensationalism, not forgetting the
clever acting Of the two stars, Rober,
Leonard and Ella Hall. There is plen-
ty Of time to catch the drift of the
story, II You have not witnessed the
preceding episodes. The seventh part
is on today. Three elegant single
reels are also shown.

miners threatening unless miners
and operators reach an agreement at
a conference to be held here Mon

among the Hooking Valley miners are
being revealed.
At Jacksonville, O., the wife of

from the long shutdown of the mines,
Ohio operators say Ohio freight

around the doorstep. Inside, the
gTief-stricken husband Graded

A brother-in-Iaw of the dead wOm-

hundreds of other cases in the dis
trict.
'In the last Is months my brother
has had only 70 days work at less
than 50 a day." he said. His wife,
trying to make every penny count
and too proud to beg, would go for
days with little or no food, insisting
every morsel available should go to
her children.
Months ago, even when she knew
the stOrk was again to visit her home,
she still declined to take proper nOUT-
ishment, saying she would rather die
than see her children die.

In effect that / am puryeyor of obscenity.
He knows that | merely reprinted, what
the Popes have been printing and reprint
ing for hundred years; and that | did
not even translate the Latin eGtract.
What is the extract?
Why, it is a list of the vile, debasing, ut
terly un-Christian questions, which bachelor
priests are required to pour into the ears of
Catholic maids and matrons.
In the effort to arouse our people to the
terrible dangers of Romanism, was writing
a series of chapters for the Magazine to be
afterwards put in book form; and the hor-
rible pool of the Confessional came up
for treatment, as it has done in hundreds of
ntl-Catholic books.
Scores of books on the same line are 90
ing through the mails, every day.
Chiniquy's book from which cut out the
Latin pages used by me, has been going, I'M
molested, through the mails, more than 80
years:
DR. Fulton's book, o. KID by Anthony
Comstock, IS far and away the most obscene
anti Catholic work ever mailed in America,
but they never arrested DR.. Fulton.
By the irony of fate, it was Comstock that
the X. Of c. prevailed on to arrest me-
Why the discrimination against one man?
Why the special efforts put forth to crush
Watson?
The reason is plain enough: In my case,
the Privileged Interests, the Ring Politi-
clans, and the Roman priests could meet on
common ground, and unite against a COM
mon enemy.
My knowledge of literature and history,
my experience as a lawyer, my independent
publishing company, my lack of ambition
for office, my indifference to money, the elias
sic literary form which give permanent value
to my books, my popularity among the plain
common people, my stalwart Americanism-
all these make me dangerous" in the eyes
of artful Romanists, retten politicians, and
grasping corporations
Therefore, the combination to put me
down.
The Frank case has added the rich Jew to
the combination, and [ realize that it is for
midable perhaps murderous.
If Stockbridge is not a Catholic and IS a
married man, he is now taking sides with
foreign church which says he is bastard,
that his father and mother lived in concu-
binage, that he himself is living in filthy
cOncubinage, and that if he has any chill
dren, they are bastards.
Go it, Stock, you are welcome to your
company.

Every word of that evidence could have
been summarized, printed, and mailed, with
out offense to any law, or any person, no
matter how fastidious.

Conley's evidence, published it in the Sep

On the contrary, that evidence is now go
ing through the mails, every day, to all parts
of the Union; and it is opening the eyes of
the dupes of just such INSCRIPTIONS liars,
as II. E. Stockbridge.
No; the lady's question stung the old car
pet-bagger.
Why didn't you publish the official record?
Why didn't you let the outside world see
qchot acas the evidence, upon which the jury
convicted, and of which the reviewing SUI
preme court said ''Suffcient?"
The twelve good men and true, said
Enough enough evidence to sustain the
charge brought by a grand jury, echich had
four Jeoos on It,
The trial Judge said ''Enough."
The Supreme Court said, "ENOUGHr
Why not publish that record which all the
juries- Coroner's grand and petit-said
was sufficient, and which all the reviewing
Courts pronounced sufficient?
Why not condense the main facts and
give them to the world?
Stockbridge says the reason was, they
"were too obscene -
Miserable old slanderer
The fact that the official record could have
been condensed and circulated. IS established
In the interest of Truth and the honor of
our State, [ condensed that official record
and published it, and not line of obscenity
is in it.
If Stockbridge knows anything about
journalism and law, he ought to be familiar
with the decisions which protect the press
in the publication of the proceedings Of the
Courts
In the Beattie case, there was some very
obscene evidence as to the disease the young
husband had, and the details were disgust
ing.
But the Richmond papers, in good faith,
published the testimony, Just as it was given;
and when the federal grand jury indicted the
editors and publishers, the bill was quashed
The effort of Stocl1bridge to excuse the
Haas committee and others, for not giving
the people the Truth, about the Frank case,
is a mere dishonest subterfuge.
He knows why they chose to hire the Con-
nollys to lie about it; they dared not let
the world know the facts.
The game of concealment, and Of
Justification, is being played now, in behalf
of Slaton, just as it was played in behalf of
Frank, .Szat0n's client.
In his lengthy letter to Mrs. Williams,
Stockbridge never let's it leak out, that a
few days after Rosser became Franks law
yer, Slaton did, and that Slaton was Franks
lawyer when he retired the case, and re-
versed the jury and the Courts.

Conley put the hands dozen. and he and
Frank carried the body to the elevator.
Now: in answering Stockbridge's state
ment that the case was one Of circumstan-
flal evidence, only, [ summarized all the
foregoing into the assertion that Conley's
evidence was direct, in that he saw the crime
committed.
That is exactly the legal effect of Conleys
testimony.
Frank says to him, virtually, "There is the
girl have struck and killed; help me get
the body out of 81 ht
The girl was right there, Frank was there,
the negro was there; and Frank explains to
the negro how the girl came to be killed al
most before the breath had left her body.
What's the use of pretending thai such
witness, is not q acitnesS to the crime?
Stockbrdge IS SO eager to get away from
the facts, that he tells the Texas lady that
Conley did not testify to anything of the
kind
Why, in the name of COMMON sense should
any sane man deny that all this IS direct cri-
dcnce, absolutely equivalent to sn3jtq Fraat
comnH the crime?

Yet this old ass, Stockbridge, contends
that, "COnley never testified to anything of
the kind"
Stockbrdge tells the Texas lady that Con-
ley simply confessed to being accessory aft
er the fact
Yes, Conley confessed that that was his
share in the crime, but he put it directly on
Frank, in most convincing manner; and
he was corroborated by facts which no law
yer could get around-the hair on the lathe
machine handle, which was the something"
the girl had fallen upon, after the Jew hit
her that cruel blow on the eye; the blood on
the floor where Conley dropped the body;
the utter absence of any physical evidence
of crime elsewhere; and the condition of
the corpse when found.
Stockbridge says to this Texas lady:
you demand of those who sanction the action
OF Governor Slaton "get down to business and
publish the official record" Your demands are
ridiculous and are known to be utterly sincere by
their originator, who you SO palpably initiate.
The simple reason why the record has not been
published, is in order to be useful for the pur-
pose you suggest, it must be widely disseminated
through the mails. Unfortunately, the record is
