HOKE, HARDWICK, AND JUDGE
REAGAN
REAGAN.

Dear Sir: What will Judge Rea-
gan do since Hoke and HardWick
have gone Republican? Will the
Judge disfranchise them? Before the
election the Judge passed a decree
that whoever voted in the primary
was honor bound to support the
nominee in the general election, and
the man that failed to do so was
traitor to his country, and to vote
against Hoke and Hardwick was high
treason. Now Judge, if the head Of
your party is Republican, what is the
tail? If the head of dog is dog,
the tail of the dog is dog. What are
you and your kind now Judge to
the hard-shell, rock-ribbed, moss
back Democrats, you fellows that
have been cussing Tom Watson for
wick would do if they were elected
to the United States Senate? Don't
you see that Mr.. Watson had them
located. Don't you know that when
Hoke and Hardwick paid $4,000 to
get elected to the Senate that they
knew that the Republicans had
plenty of money and would not re-
fuse to buy votes when they needed
them, just like HOke and Hardwick
bought votes to get their nomina-
ton. Don't you know that the
money power buys up Congressman
and Senators and have laws enacted
which make the rich richer and the
poor poorer. You fellow that has
always been a Democrat because
your daddy was a Democrat. Don't
you sec that you have been follow

ANOTHER CASE OF ROMAN CATH
OLIC BOYCOTT AND PER-
SECUTION.

Dear Sir: Since writing you, and
since The Menace's story on my
books, the beasts has had them
thrown out of the public Libraries in
Denver, and other places, prevented
them from being put in. Likewise,
several jobbers have advised me they
cannot handle them, since The Men

to get me and stop the circulation
of these books, unless you and 9TH
ers help me.
The Menace writes me today that
they will have another story soon.
wrote them giving them the fact
that [ am giving you in this letter.
In 'The Truth about the Bible" at
page PIT, after tracing the origin Of
the monarchy Of the Catholic church,
and showing that it was fashioned
after the system of the Roman En-
pire, | used this language, "That
Jesus never created an archbishop,
a cardinal, nor a pope, and therefore
never created the Catholic church.
That it is a combination Of pagan
ism, Judaism and the political sys-
tenn of the Roman Empire combined.
On page 1853, of ''Sexology of the
Bible,'' I use this language, in in
terpreting the woman Of Revelation
That the woman, the great city, sit
ting on the seven hills is the Catholic
church flirting with the nations of
the earth and controlling and ruling
them through sensuality. "In Why
Jesus was a Man and not a Woman"
[ interpret priesthood to mean spirit
uality, and that Christ was the chief
priest because he was perfect spirit
ually, and all man made priesthood
is paganism and not Christianity.
You can readily see where Rome has
FLASHED with my books.
Can you not use these facts in
some way to help me.

money to fight them. A few lines
from you would cause many in the
cities where they have public libra
ries to demand that these books be
placed in them. There are others

the facts and I will appreciate any
thing that you may say or do.

ANOTHER OF THE OLD GUARD
CROSSES THE SILENT RIVER.

Dear Sir: Mr.. Thos. james died
on the 9Th Of January, 1915, in Up
son County, Ga. He was 80 years
of age and was a great lover of Mr..
Watson, and had been ever since the
COS. He was one of the "Old
Guard" He took no paper but The
Jeffersonian and would let no other
paper come to his home. He was a
Mason Of long standing, deacon in
the Baptist church of which he had
been a member for years. A good
man has fallen and he will be greatly
missed in church and State, and by
all who knew him. A Christian hero
has passed away, and we believe he is
now enjoying that Heavenly rest
that is promised to the final faithful.
I know that Mr.. Watson has lost
great and true friend. One by one
the cid guards are swiftly passing
and many heart aches will be made
by their departure. We will not
grieve, for their good deeds will fol-

Dear Sir: [ have been a regular
reader Of your Magazine for the last
five or six months and [ am much
pleased with the fearless manner in
which you attack and expose the

commonly known as the Roman

citizens to the real character of this
machine.

ing an empty name. Don't you see
that you have been following the
shadow of Democracy and cussing
the substance.
The Republican driver has a fine
yoke. The little bull is Tonic, the
big bull is Hoke, the fountain head
the Simon pure. The captains of
Georgia Democracy have landed you
lock, stock and barrel in the Repub-
ican camp. Now watch Hoke and
HardWick's explanation, oh it will
be so plausible. These fellows saw
that it would be to the interest Of
their constituents to take the stand
that they did, and every thing would
work out o. k. All you have to do
is to sit steady in the boat with your
head back and your mouth open and
with patience wait for the great
things that will come.

THE FOREIGN POPE HAD HIS
WAY ABOUT THE IMMI-
4 GRAFTON BILL,

4 GEIAIISlN BILL.
Dear Sir: Enclosed is a roll call
vote published in the official publica-
ton of the Federation of Labor
showing how every Congressman
voted-by States.
Note that practically every R. G.
and K. G. voted against this needed
legislation.
Tumulty and McAdoo and Burle-
son were the powers behind the
throne. Tumnlty told Burnett, the
Chairman of the House Committee
on immigration, Thursday afternoon,
January 21st, when Burnett went to
the White House that he had been
converted to the reading test and
the bill, and that the President was
almost persuaded" if not persuaded
and would probably sign the bill,
and yet within an hour afterwards
.Tumulty was urging a Democrat who
had voted for the bill to support
the Presidents forthcoming veto.
The next Saturday he urged Sewell
OF Louisiana to change front and
support the veto. That's the kind
of duck Tumulty is. At the same
time Cardinal Gibbons was in the
city, Old John Ireland was here,
Bishop McGolrich of Duluth was
here, Bishop O'Gorman of South Da-
kota was here, and others stopping
at the Shoreham Hotel, and were at
the White House seeing the Presi-
dent about the immigration bill
telling him they would do every
thing they could to renominate and
re-elect him if he would veto it.
They were seeing members of Con-
gress also and urging them to vote
to support the veto.
Tumulty, Burleson and McAdoo
bought up number of lame ducks
with semi-promises of patronage.
Bartlett of Georgia, who has always
voted for it-Who had it in his plat
form, etc., and who has been going
to the White House week after week
rece Itly, changed. So did Mulkey
of Alabama, and Taylor of Alabama,
and F. 0. Smith of Maryland, who
go out March 4th. The Boston Even
ing Transcript of the 9th has an
article pointing such out. Burnett
charged it in his speech on the floor
'February 4th, which was published
last Monday in the Congressional
Record of Monday 9Th.
The congressman who voted
against the needed legisla ton and
did as Rome bid ought to be black
listed and talked against and voted
against. So too ought the seven
Senators: Reed of Missouri, who led
the fight against it in the Senate
and who comes up next time for re-
election; MARITIME Of New jersey
who also comes up; O'Gorman, R. G.
and K. P, who also comes up next
election, next year; Randall of
Louisiana, who comes up next time
and a r. G. and K c.. Walsh of Mon
tana, r. G. and K. c., who comes up
four years from now, Stone of Mis-
souri,.
Every one should question every
candidate running for Congress and
particularly for the House next year
as to how he stands on the question.

game of baseball. Not a great

DreSbaCh Sells
Out To Meyer!

A deal was closed on Friday
of last week whereby s. D..
Meyers becomes the sole owner
of the pool hall located the first
door south of the Horr jeHelry
store. The place h been
known as the Meyers & Dres-
bach Pool Hall, being owned in
partnership by Elmer Dresbach
and Sidney Meyers.
The deal has been pending for
some tine, Mr.. Dresbach having
tired of the confinement and the
late hours necessitated by the
business and wishing to go into
something more to his liking.
He has not decided as yet as to
what he will do, but whatever it
may be The Herald wishes him
the greatest of success.
Under the management Of Mr..
Meyers we feel confident that
the pool hall will be the same
popular gathering place as it has
been in the past.

Kicked by Mule
While Branding

Ed Delaney, of near Lennon,
was brought to this city for sur
gical attention on Saturday eve-
ming. He was suffering with a
painful cut in tie scalp above
the right eye, caused by being
kick ed by a mule which he was
branding. 1t appears that the
mule was tied down and that
when the branding iron was ap-
piled. he broke the ropes. strlf-
ing out with his feet in all dir
ections. Delaney could not get
away in time escap and the
mule struck him a glancinR blow,
cutting a cash about three inches
long and rendering him uncon-
scious. The injured man was at
once hurried 70 Lennon, where
his wound was dressed and he
is now getting along in good
shane. Three stitches were
necessary to close the wound.

Local Musicians
Favor Band Idea

The editor of The Herald has
talked with several local musi-
clans about the idea of organiz-
ing band and as yet has met
with no one who was not in ia.
vor of the idea. Lennon has a
great number of men who are
experienced band men and it
would be very easy to organize a
band of from twenty to twenty
five pieces: Almost all the in
struments that are necessary
are owned by different men in
Lennon and the only thing
needed to get a band started is
to get them together.
That Lennon needs a band is
a fact without question. A good
band will mean the livening up
of the town and the fact that
a town has a good band gives it
prestige over the neighboring
communities. Everyone likes
music and if a band were organ
lied and gave a concert on the
streets of Lennon once or twice
week, people would come for
miles to hear them. The band
could also be used with the ball
team and play at the games,
and that would mean that when
any one came to Lennon to at
tend game they would invar;-
ably make the remark that
Lennon sure is a live one"
Not a great deal of money
would have to be expended to
get the thing started and we
think that it is to the interest of
every business man in Lennon
to boost for band.
1t has been arranged with the
Commercial Club to have the
use of their club rooms on Fri
day night to talk over the plans.
Every man of musical ability
and every one interested should
come out and help boost the
thing along.

Lennon Giants
Slaughter Reeder
Heavy Hitting by Locals and
Good Work of Battery Only
Interesting Features
by BORRY

Sundays game with Reeder,
while not a model exhibition of
the Natiol al pastime, was bene-
fetal nevertheless in more than
one respect to the Lennon
Giants. 1t has given them con-
hdence and pep" and when
they go up against other teams
along the line it will be with a
vim and wig" hard to stop.
Everybody had on their bat
ting clothes, 20 safe blows being
registered from the offerings Of
the three Reeder pitchers. The
Indian, Felix Fly, getting five
hits and a base on balls in six
trips to the plate. carried off the
batting honors Of the day. He
was closely followed by Crosse,
Johnson and Fjetland, who all
got three hits apiece. FJe.land
got the first home run of the
season, thereby winning a meal
ticket at t h e Palace Holel
Thomas and Baker each got two
hits, Sheets and Borreson got
one apiece, and Potts, our sturdy
backstop, failed to get hit, but
instead showed that he has a
keen eye and looks everything
over, by getting four bases on
balls.
The big feature of the game
was the stellar work Of our new
battery, Fly and Potts. I h e
Indian has everything. There
is a hop on his fast ball that
makes it look like pea, and his
curve ball is a hook. Potts
handled the FIy's delivery per
fectly, never a bobble being
made by him, and his throwing
to bases was delight to the
spectators.
With this battery, we can pre-
dict a fine season for the Lem
mon team, and the boys behind
them are all infused with the
fighting spirit, which goes to
win ball games.
One day last week, Fly was
asked if he could hit. He mod
estIy answered, Yes, but am
slow on my feet. Felix can be
as slow as he chooses to be,
when he is able to deliver with
the bat as he did in Sunday )
frolic. His bat will get him
around some way. And talking
about hitting, keep an eye on
Potts, who will he pretty close
