IN OLD FRIEND WHO HAS NEW
Err LOST FAITH,

Dear Sir: I am back again this
year with another sui scription list
for you and hand you herewith sub
scription list showing names and ad-
dresses of subscribers, together with
cashiers check in the sum CT $11.50.
I hope to be able to continue this
work as long as | an able to get
about and help you in the fight for
the poor man and underclasses, to
help in the fight for justice among all
men, to help in the fight i'll behalf OF
our Government and the Protestant
churches against Roman Catholicism.
Men in public office do not fight for
the working man. The evil infiu-
ences OF money Obscures his rights
altogether. 1t doesn't make any diff
ference what some other papers say,
the noble sacrifice that YOU make and
the good done will, SO. C day, be in
evidence to all. | have never lost
faith in your motives and, too, when
attacked by numbers of your bitter
enemies.
/ have lived long enough, seen
enough and experienced enough to
know that you have kept the faith Of
Populist days. The fight is still on;
don't give up the ship.
Yours very truly,
Ga. J. D. STORY.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-06-03

in these vastly important matters.
Almost have to read a daily paper
from Washington to know if we are
alive or dead.
Why such a howl by the capital
istic papers at the loss Of a small
number Of people who have left
their families we'll provided for, and
no anxiety about the millions of poor
fools who have already been killed
in this crazy war and left other mil
lions of born and unborn children
and families absolutely uncared for?
If submarines and airships are ''un-
constitutional" why are they in the
United States Army and Navy?
For a bunch of hypocritical,
thieVfng grafters; yellow-streaked
and double-tongued rum soaked
buffers, our Washington officials
can take the blue ribbon prize, with
few exceptions.
Keep up your good work, Mr.
Watson. l envy you the means and
ability to hit such blows as you are
doing, and time will show that you
are doing good to an oppressed peo-
pie. Very truly,
Ga. B. PERKINS.

cept the address as the private opinion or
views Of Woodrow Wilson.
The whole country expected the President
to outline the governments policy in his Phil
adclphia speech, and when he declared that
there is such a thing as being too proud to
fight, we accepted that as his attitude toward
Germany.
1t is Mr. Wilson's own fault that he had to
disown that part OF his speech--that he had
10 publicly explain that the words were of no
significance, as they were spoken by Wilson
the individual The newspapers did not mis-
quote the President, and he has learned a
lesson that is keeping him at his post of duty.
Mr.. Wilson might well lecture his Secre-
tary Of State on wisdom gained by expert
ence.

THE MURDERERS OF WILLIAM
BLACK, MARSHALL, TEXAS, Z.
TO BE TRIED,

Dear Sir: The case of one of the
defendants charged with the muir
der Of Rev. William Black, at Mar
shall, Texas, has been set for trial
on the 21st day of June.
The County Attorney is prose-
cutting alone, but is anxious to have
the cooperation of special counsel,
as the Knights of Columbus defend
ants have employed numerous and
skilled attorneys.
If the prosecution is to go ahead
with the proper ginger and power,

landed at unfortifed points on the Atlantic
aAd Pacific, and operate from those bases.
Therefore, we must have a navy powerful
enough to prevent any such thing happening
We must be able to destroy the other fell
lows navy and not let him put his foot on
Our soil.
If we have navy able to do this then
what use have we for bigger army?
If big navy will sink the other fellows
ship before it can land his army, what will
our army have to fight?
There isn't any ground whatever upon
which Congress can base appropriations for
an increase in both the army and navy.
One of the two will be so many millions
thrown away. and we had better wake up
and get behind our Congressman before the
Steel and Powder Trusts put another deal
across.
Now is god time for us to agitate the
Immigration question, and insist that the next
Congress do something.
Since the outbreak of the war we have seen
beyond a doubt that the maj ority of foreign
crs remain loyal to their mother countries
the German remains German, the French
man Frcnchman, the Italian an Italian, and
SO it is with those Of the other countries now
fghtiu".
If it had not been for the fact that it was
impossible for them to reach Germany, the
United States would have furnished Ger
many powerful army of so-called German
Americans, as we did furnish France with
thousands of her soldiers.
With all travel to Germany practically
shut off, thousands of the Kaiser's reservists
did gel back. while others held here have rem
dcred most valuable aid.
Take the case Of Italy, for example.
The morning after war was declared be-
tween Italy and Austria, it was officially
stated that there were $4,000 Italians in New
York City, between the ages of 10 and 80,
subject to military duty
Just think for minute that Italy has an
army of $4,000 in just one city, and you
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1915-06-03

wonder what size army she has when all Of
the Italians in America are counted.
Taking out citizenship papers does not
relieve these foreigners from allegiance to
their mother country, and it is high time that
we realized it.
The European nations that have compul-
sorry military service do not train their
soldiers for nothing--thoy do not spend the
millions for military purposes to make citi-
zens for other countries they train these
men to fight, and to be subject to the call
wherever they may be.
The Kaiser said, not long ago that he knew
Germans, he knew Americans, but he knew
no COMMUNICATIONS, and what is true of
the German, is also true of the others.
The hyphenated American is simply an
American when it does not suit his conven-
lence to be of the nationality coming before
the hyphen, and the sooner we face the fact,
the better it will be for our national safety.
We can not put up the bars of immigration
after the immigrants have overrun us-we
must put up the bars now, or, suffer the con-
sequences.
And those hyphenated subjects Of King
and Kaiser who heed the call should be barred
from coming back to our shores.
President Wilson has declined an invita-
ton to speak at Independence Hall, Phila-
delphia. July 5, because it is his duty to re-
main in Washington during the tense inter
national situation, and refrain from making
speeches.
Mr.. Wilson cites the prominence given that
part of his last Philadelphia speech-"There
is such thing as being too proud to fight
as an instance OF how man can put his foot
in it, and takes "Billy" Sunday pledge of
"never again"
It is well that it has dawned upon Mr. VIII
son that it isn't good policy to make a speech
in the evening, and then have to take back
everything he said next morning-that he
cannot, as President of the United States, ad
dress an audience, and have the audience &C
