MUST FACE TRIAL.
Mr. Gregory, in Open Letter, States That He Be-

Against Him if He is Convinced That Federal
Statutes Have Been Violated Outside of Geor-
gia
An Associated Press Dispatch of February 21st
says:
Washington, Feb. 21.-Attorney General Greg
DRY tonight made public a letter to Charles c.
McCrory of Ellavlle, Ca, stating the position of
the Department of Justice in regard to prosecu-
ton of Thomas E. Watson of that state for al
legged sending through the mails Of obscene and
indecent matter. The letter answers protests of
Georgia members of Congress against reported
plans of the department to prosecute Mr.. Watson
outside of the State of Georgia on the ground
that fair trial could not be had in that state
Mr. Gregory makes it plain that he will not
hesitate to institute criminal proceedings against
Mr.. Watson in some other Jurisdiction if he Ts
convinced that federal statutes have beer violated
outside of Georgia, that fair trial cannot be
had there. He says the Department of Justice
has data to show that Ma Watson has violated
the section of the criminal code prohibiting the
mails to obscene matter, and that neither threats
nor Islander will affect his duty as a. public Of
ficial in the case
The above refers to the Frank case, of
course; and the passionate interest which
Blenl manifests, shows how the rich Jews and
the Catholic priests are united

went to Postmaster General Burleson and de-
manded that The Jeffersonian be thrown out

told him, in effect, that a jury of y honest
men could not be obtained among the 100000
voters of Georgia.
It was Anthony Matre, Secretary of the
American Federation of the italian pope's
secret societies who went to Saint Anthony
Comstock, P. 0. Inspector, and started the
prosecution against The Jeffersonian four
years ago.
The rich Jews, the Romanists, and the Rot
ten politicians are awfully anxious to squelch

1t does not necessarily follow that The JEFF
