CONGRATULATIONS, FOR WHICH,
THANKS,

Dear Sir: Please allow me space
in your paper for few lines in the
way of congratulations for the grand
and noble stand you have taken III
defending the rights and liberties OF
democracy. There are plenty OF
people who know the rottoness and
hypocracy that is going on all over
the land, but haven't the nerve like
you have, to expose it to the public.
Would to God that such man as
you, could live thousand years and
then some.
The time is coming when men shall
stand or fall by their actions. When
all human pageantry shall cease and
the hearts of all be laid open to view.
Oh, may they pause at the brink of
the precipice before the disastrous
leap is taken into the yawning abyss
below, which means certain and IT.
retrievable destruction. Hoping these
few lines will meet with yUur ap-
proval, and with God-speed co COM
fort and strengthen you In your
grand and glorious undertaking, is
my humble prayer.
Yours to the last,
S. p. DRAKE.

TWO OLD VETS.

Dear Sir: When Elder A. J.
Moore and I saw the result of your
shameful fake trial, we became so
elated that we decided to make our
congratulations practicable by send
ing the enclosed list of subscribers
at your club rates for The Jetfer-
sonian. This is our third list, but
understand, it will not be our last,
for it is a great pleasure to work
for The "Jeffs."
Elder Moore is Baptist minister,
and breaches the Gospel, while am
a Baptist layman, and do little
street lecturing in behalf Of Jeffer
sonian doctrine, and each one OF us
has the distinction or being old Con-
federate veterans.
All hale for your successful tri-
umph at Augusta. Ca, and three
cheers to these ten patriotic jurors
who learned from lne testimony that
you was not guilty IS Charged. The
whole thing was "a daggea' thrust at
the liberties of free speech, free press
and other American liberties.
What aIll the end re? Who can
answer?

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL
DIDN'T HAVE A THING TO DO
WITH WATSON'S PROSE-
CUTION.

Dear Sir: The one most import
ant thing now in the fight to retain
our liberties is an amendment to the
censorship law defining what cob
scenlty" is, cutting off the right of
the Postmaster General to make
'rules and regulations" that inter-
fere with lawful publication, and
making that official personally liable
for such interference.
When Coal Oil Bailey was in the
senate he vigorously denounced the
power Of the Postmaster General,
but what did it amount to? Nothing.
Because he took no action to curtail
that power.
The Appeal to Reason bowls; the
Menace bowls; the Rip-Saw papers
howl, Watson is pinched, William
Lloyd Clard goes under the yoke, and
so do down the line, still nothing is
done. The despotic power remains
a threat and menace to every man
who would expose rottenness in the
social fabric.
Now why don't you publishers get
your heads together, formulate an
amendment to the law, and push it
upon COuSI 0SS, duu A0Cp pu0uAA5 ACS
Why with millions of readers you
could literally flood the Post COM
mittee of House and Senate with
personal letters demanding action.
No more favorable time has ap-
peared since that vicious law was
enacted than right now while you
have the ear of so many people.
This would be the best possible
answer to the Fitzgerald Gallivan eff
fort.
Yours very truly,
THINKER.

ing STABBED them in front. was
sure you would do it, but I never
dreamed that there would be d
preacher summoned on that jury,
who would be too, small to sit as 8
juror. do not believe they will
ever get jury that will convict you
on your fight for free speech and
free press, but should they succeed
in doing so, I believe you have
friends enough In the United States

and turn you out. But just keep on
keeping on.

PAINT DIFFERENCE.

A few years ago large fence was
erected at the North Dakota state
farm at Fargo and various sections
of this fence were painted with differ
ent paints under the direction of Prof.
E. F. Ladd, paint commissioner OF
North Dakota. The paints used in
this test included various brands sold
through dealers in North Dakota and
mail-order house, paints. Each paint
was applied on four different surfaces
soft pine, hard pine, cedar siding
and soft pine siding. Then the paint
ed fence was left to the mercy of the
weather.
What happened? A lot of things
That test fence has caused the claims
Of lot of paint manufacturers to fade
like snow ball in August. What
about the mail order paints? They be.
gan to show signs of distress early in
the test. Here is what Commissioner
Ladd's report says about them:
1.-TWO Of the better known mail or.
der house paints were included II
these tests. Both Of these paints fail.
