Another Letter 10 Our Immediate
Representative Inn Congress.
February /, 1915.
Hon. Carl Vinson,
Washington, D. c.,


Dear Sir: Yours of January thirtieth received.
AS stated in my telegram of last evening" The JEFF
fersonian had already been set up and the article
eoes 10 the country, Today and tomorrow.
This is no private affair, to be kept hidden from
the public eye; the thing which this Democratic
Administration has threatened for several months
to do to me, concerns every man, woman and child
in - : F10--rhin
deliberate and persistent threat to make a
reeoiut1onaly invasion OF the personal liberties of
one citizen, endangers the blood boUrht ~ig7ts Of
all our citizens. If did not make determined
and public stand against this contemplated out
rage, would be derelict in duty to our fore
fathers who fought for and died for the liberties
enjoy.
How much longer should I wait?
The Jew drummers and the Roman Catholic
priests began to circulate these threats last
mer; they came to me while engaged in
writing the articles the Frank case; they have
persisted ever since. l felt that the Government
was waiting to learn the result OF my trial in Au-
gusta before taking the threatened course against
me, When. in spite of Judge Lambdn's adverse
rulings, the jury refused to convict me- the priests
and their allies, the rich Jews, resolved to try the
other tack.
Have | not been corresponding with you about
this matter for several weeks? Did you not treat
the subject slightngiy that it became necessary
for me to demonstrate with you?
Did not Mr.. Wallace show to Mr. Crisp, and
mention to you and Judge Park and Mr.. Tribbe
the very decision under which he said it was his
purpose to drag me out of the State of Georgia?
Did not the Department of Justice tell Governor
Harris that they would carry out the threat, unless
[ agreed to modify the tone and the verbiage of
my editorials?
You will pardon me for saying, it is highly pre-
sumptous in young yourself to be urg-
ing advice upon me, to the conduct of our paper.
You go to the extent of saying that if I mention
the matter to the public, it will put me in the at
titude of the aggressOr
How do you make that out?
Has the Department made any secret of their in
tention?
Have they not told Judge Park, Mr.. Crisp, Mr..
Tribble Governor Harris, and yourself, what they
meant to do?
How am the aggressor when I let the people
know what this Democratic Administration, egged
on by Tumulty, the Irish Catholic cardinals, the
millionaire Jews, and the two Georgia Senator's,
are threatening to do to me?
When Mr.. Wallace takes up the decision in the
case of the two Jewish ccnspirators stealing from
the Government in Washington and using their
knowledge the Stock Exchange in New York
what greater insult and wrong could he nflict
upon citizen of Georgia who, if he violated the
laws at all, has violated them here in Thomson,
Georgia?
Nothing but the most malignant hatred and de-
sire for revenge could actuate any Ievel-headed
person to apply that conspiracy to me.
They know quite well that there has been no
conspiracy, and they knew equally we'll that these
Frank articles did not violate any law I did not
