It HE case of the United States government
against Thos E. Watson was, for the
third time, brought to trial before Federal
Judge, in Augusta, Georgia, at ten o'clock on
the morning of November 81, 1916.
Mr.. Watson was his own counsel, assisted
by Hon. j. Gordon Jones, of Cordele, Ga.
Hon. Don Clarke, of Savannah, Ga, Hon.
VIM. Fleming and Hon. Sam Olive, of Au-
gusta.
The selection Of the jury was accomplished
with satisfaction to both sides, and Mr. Wat
son made the opening statement to the Jury
Although frequently interrupted by the prose
cution, Mr.. Watson was able to lay his case
clearly before the jury as follows:
The jury is to inquire, not whether De-
PENDANT committed a crime against any
individual, but whether he acted criminaly,
feloniously against the community, THE
PUBLIC
The moral turpitude which the law means
to penalize, is that of the unprincipled SEN
sualist, the mercenary caterer to prurient APP
petite, the literary panderer whose pen is the
ally of the bawd and the brothel.
BY the very language of the statute, such
a man is the accomplice of the criminal doctor
who procures abortion, and of the criminal
midwife who performs forbidden operation
upon a pregnant woman.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1916-11-30

AS to the average woman, she won't love
coward, if she knows it; and the widest
scamps in the community are apt to be the
fascinators of the sweetest girls.
Don't ask me why this is so, because I
can't explain it upon any other theory, than
that which makes Book of Sermons the best
place to hide something in.
Didn't the women start the French Revo-
luton?
Didn't the women set fire to the COM
bustibles, and throw our country into the war
fever, in 1861? They certainly did. Who
started the Franco Prussian war of 1870?
The Empress Eugene.
Who instigated the Civil Wars in France?
Queen Catherine de Medici.
Who pushed Charles the First into his
fatal conflict with the British Parliament?
His wife, Queen Henrietta.
Who caused Louis XIV. to repeal the act
of religious liberation, and plunge France

Dragonnades? Madame De Maintenon.
Who engulfed King Louis XIV. in the

s"He kept Us Out OF War;

THERE were 100000 women voters this
year, and it is said that they were gen
orally for Wilson because of the slogan "He
kept us out of war"
I doubt if that had much to do with it, be-
cause most women love fighters
We are told that the women have been the
pot-boilers in almost every war. They not
only prepare the torch, but light it.
From of old, men have fought, to win the
smiles of women. Is it not so?
"Nome but the brave deserve the fair," is
leading line in the wonderful code to St.
Cecilia's Day." which Dryden wrote, describ-
ing one of the wild revelries of Alexander
the Great.
The warlike women of the Jews inspired
their warriors before the battle, and harped
their praises after the triumph.
"Saul has slain his thousands, but David
his tens of thousands" hence, Saul fell into
the background, with the women, and David
went head.
The Grecian mother taught her boy that
death in war should be considered more
glorious than life, in igmo6ze peace; and, in
Roman civilization, the men who fought
ruled those who thought and wrote.
l do not T 1 that any poet ever sang in
praise of .,Il-sop, or went into raptures
over the white feather.

ing among the hghest-class of writers in that
particular sphere of authorship.
Thus, writer of fiction, who is shown by
his text to be actuated by no loftier purpose
than to amuse, crafty prurient appetite, and
to coin money out of readers whose taste is
depraved, cannot be considered with the same
degree Of tolerance that must necessarily be
shown to the stern censor of morals, who
alludes to vices in such manner and spirit
as to cause his readers to recoil from them.
In like manner, books on health and hygiene
must of necessity be given freedom not per-
missible in a Sunday School library.
Books on Social Conditions especially in
the great centres of population, must neces-
sarily 90 into PAINFUL and even obscene de-
tails which would be objectionable in Series
of Readers intended for use in the Public
Schools.
For example, there are any number of re-
voting, obscene, and filthy pages in the litera-
ture on GLOW the Other Half Lives" Child
Slavery" Life in the Slums," might Life
in New York" etc.
The u. S. Government itself publishes and
mails official reports on Home conditions,
tenement life, ETC., that need the benefit Of
the rule of construction for which, contend.
