''The 4th Degree Oath of the
knights OF Columbus"

ITO meet the bluff and the falsehoods of
those Americans who have foresworn
loyal principles, and have become oath-bound
subjects of foreign power, l have carefully
prepared the above named pamphlet.
The men who take that oath are traitors
to our government, and spies in our camp.
They are armed and drilled, as military
men, and kept in readiness to use their steel
swords, and their up-to-date rifles against
their fellow citizens.
Get my pamphlet, and study the facts for
yourselves. Priced ten cents.
This question of Popery is the most import
ant question now facing the people of
America.

PAGE FIVE
The Columbus Day laws.

II HE patriotic orders should address them
selves at once to the repeal of the Column
bus Day laws which the Roman Catholics
have slipped through the Legislatures of "a
States.
Those laws are the insdious beginning of
Romanist "festival days" such as they have
in great numbers in all Romanst countries.
1t is against public policy to give to any
one church holiday peculiar to itself.
Such holiday tends to excite ill-feeings,
and to provoke discord.
The Methodists have Just as much right to
demand 'Wesley Day"
The Baptists have just as much right to
demand Roger Williams Day
The Presbyterians have just as much right
to demand a John Knox, or John Calvin
Day.
The Lutherans have far more right to
demand Martin Luther Day
To prove that the Columbus Day is moth
Ing more than an occasion to gIorify the Ital-
IAN Pope, you have only to remember that
the demand for this holiday came altogether
from the Roman Catholics.
Nobody else had thing to do with it. The
Knights of Columbus were its main advo-
Gates.
On the dedication of the statue to Column
bus in Washington City, the X of c.. took
control of the Columbus Day, claiming it to
be Roman Catholic function.
The knights of Columbus ruled out all the
Protestant organizations, refusing to allow the
Odd Fellows, the Knights of Pythas, etc., to
have place in the parade
The knights of Columbus monopolized the
streets, with their rifles, swords banners,
drums and all the rest of it.
What better evidence could you ask that
they consider Columbus Day, as a papal
affair?
When Governor O'Neal, of Alabama,
signed the Columbus Day bill which the
Protestant Legislature of that State was
cajoled into passing, the Knights Of C0zuna-
0us FURNISHED the pen which the Governor
used, and they sent 1t to the Italian Pope, as q
tropAy Of the Rom0niSt vict0ry
In 1918, the Texas knights of Columbus
telegraphed the Italian priest a message
beginning with the words, "PROS1RATE
At TOUR FEET!"
In 1914 the son of one of the false Ameri-
cans who sent that degrading telegram was
helping to murder Ex-Priest William Black,
because Black stood firmly on his rights as
on Amer5cnn.
Let us meet these Knights of Columbus in
determined campaign to repeal their Colum-
bus Day.
Murderers and mobbers, such as they, shall
not have holy day, all to themselves, In these
United States.
Men who glory in the fact that they are
PROSTATE at the feet of an Italian priest, are
not fit to associate with loyal Americans, much
less enjoy the exclusive honor of having
legal festal day for themselves and their for
elgn master.
If they want to PROSTATE themselves at the
Pope's feet, and kiss one of them-or both
of them-let them go to Italy to do it.

THE JEFFERGONEAN

American congregations BIZ a powerful CON-
blraat5on Of those a0ho divide the money
among Themselves
This powerful combination consists of the
Boards, the denominational papers; the
pamphlet writers, and the missionaries
Ihe local preacher and his wife are the
drudges of the system, for they do most of the
work and get none of the money
When the local preacher drums up the
ducats, they are sweetly divided between the
hlgh-salarled brethren of the Boards, the we'll
paid publishers of missionary "iterature,"
and the pampered missionaries.
If DR.. Smith and his numerous secretaries
were reduced to salaries of $1,000 a year.
they'd quit.
If the missionary papers. magazines and
pamphlet writers were compelled to support
themselves on their legitimate revenues, theqd
quit.
II, the foreign missionaries were made to
get out OF their fine houses, and 90 to aC0rk
on a salary equal to what the average preacher
in this country has to make out on, THEY'D
quit.
Laws amessy! Just think what lovely
difference it would make In the hard lives Of
the country preachers in America, if they were
paid $500 year extra, for every baby that
the fairies brought their wives
When the foreign missionary's wife is
blessed with a child, it means $500 year
increase of pay.
When each child reaches the age of fifteen
years, the yearly extra for the child is $3.50.
Why not put the home preachers on the
same basis? Why isn't preachers baby
worth as much in this country as it is in
China?
Doesn't everybody know that it costs more
to support family in this country, than it
dose anywhere else in the world?
Every child born to our home preacher,
adds to his expenses, but does not add to his
salary.
Why should the child add to the preachers
salary, where its support is cheapest, and not
in the country where it is dearest?
If Dear Doctor Lovett can answer this
question, let him blaze away.
IF Doctor Carlton B. Harris can answer
it, let him proceed.
AS for me, I'm for the home folks includ-
ing the preachers.
I think the laborer is worthy of his hire, in
this country as we'll as in Japan.
| think baby born to minister, here at
home is worth Just as much to humanity and
to God, as the baby born to the preacher in
China.
And I think that if any preacher deserves
$500 year, extra, for the support of his chill
dren, it is the home preacher

Defending the Missionaries.

III Smith:
In Alaska, at least parts of it, there exists a
bitter prejudice against missionaries This is so
pronounced that it must have foundation either
real or fancful.
What have the missionaries done to Alaska?
Have they jumped any mining claims, corrupted
any courts away with bank deposits? Were
they part and parcel of t'The Spoilers in Beach's
story of Nome, Were a story of Fairbanks to
be written, would they figure villainously in it?
Hardly. What, then, do their offenses consist
of. that the mob would have them hung?
"They graft off of the poor, ignorant Indian,
is the reply. Zone year they sent $4,000 worth
Of fur out of the country.
So? Are they the only ones who graft off Of
the Indians? And do they give nothing in
return?
"But the missionary gratis behind the shield
of religions is the
This is the crux of the matter. 1t is their
religion which is more offensive than their graft
The Protestant hates the Catholic, the Catholic
hates the Protestant and the freethinker despises
them both. These plain facts and there is
beating about the BUSH" Abusing mis-
sionaries is a popular pastime. Yet sitting the
matter to the bottom, it is hard to see wherein
the missionaries have caused more harm to
Alaska than other graftePs.
The editor who defends the missionaries
of Alaska contends that, after sitting the
matter to the bottom, he decides the mission
aries have not done any more harm than
the other grafters.
This is pleasing news.
In other countries, the missionaries gener-
ally come out IA leetle ahead" of the other
grafters.
Thus, in the Hawaiian Islands, the mission
aries and their sons, grandsons, etc., got all
the land away from the natives, and most Of
the portable property.
In the Philippines, the Roman Catholic
missionaries got so much of the land, that
Taft had to mortgage the Archipelago to buy
them out.
Even then, they were left in the peaceable
ownership of the most valuable city properties
in the islands
All over the world, the story has been the
same.
The pioneer missionaries we're honest men,
tremendously in earnest, and heroically fear
They made the way easy for those who came
afterwards.
These unselfsh pioneers risked their lives,
endured hardships, lived frugally, and worked
without thought Of the money to be made
out of it.
In other words, such men as Judson and
Morrison are worthy to be classed with Inn
othv and Barnabas.
But those who came afterwards, came as
professionals who had chosen that trade, and
who expected good salaries and an easy time.
Then came the stationary missionary, resi-
dent of fine house, tended by servants, and
enjoying all the luxuries of the country In
which he was located
Properly speaking, such a stationary
preacher has no valid claim to be considered
a foreign missionary.
The very idea of missionary work is, that
of men who are on the 60, from place to place,
spreading the Gospel, and kindling fires here,
there and yonder, which continue to burn and
increase after he had passed on his way to

II was in 1898 that the rush OF gold

Of success.
H. VI. Cadeli recently visited the
Klondike and there made a study Of
present conditions lie describes them
and adds an interesting account of the
early day rush to the Northwest terri
tory The Smithsonian institution has
put Mr. Cadets report into print. It
IS an interesting document. Some Of
the happenings in the Klondike were
duplicates Of like happenings in Cali
foruia and Australia during the first
years of the surface washing in those
fields. These Implications show that
human nature is unchanging.
Men went TO the Klondike daring
hardship and death that they might
get rich quick. Some OF the gold
seekers were quickly successful. A
large percentage of the successful
ones almost literally threw their mon
cy away. Easy come, easy so This
sort of thing has marked gold min
