Why the Confederate Vets Pro-

Macon, Ca, Feb. 9th, 1917.
M RS. WALTER J. GRACE, President Z. D. C.
IVA Chapter, Macon, Ga:
Dear Mrs. Grace
We recently learned that Bishop Kelley o.
Savannah, Ca, had been invited to deliver tbs
memorial address April 26th invited in good
faith by the ladies Of the Local Chapter L. D. c.,

cause; we, feeling this deeply, each of us, an
Old Confederate Veteran, who gave of his best
for the cause he considered just and right in the
sixties, and who stands just ready, today, to
shed the last drop Of red blood flowing through
our old veins, for the Of freedom and right,
or against any menace that threatens beloved
country, urge you to use your influence presi-
dent of the q. d. c., to have this invitation
called and to have this patriotic address delivered
by one who is in full accord and sympathy with
our American constitution.
Bishop Kelley represents a system antagOnistic
to the laws Of land eve cite The Great En-
cyclical Letters of Pope Leo XIII, wherein the
declaration is made that it is a crime to obey the
laws Of the State If they at variance with the
Papal law and Bishop Kelley has so we'll
proved his allegiance to this above authority by
defying the laws of the State of Georgia, we feel
that it would be embarrassing for him to deliver
address patriotism to the constituency OF
the members of the general assembly of the State
of Georgia, when he has cIassed them unfit and
unworthy to appear in the presence of ladies.
unless the latter be protected.
For the ladies of the L. ID. c., we have the
kinGeSt feeling and most sincerely trust that this
unpleasantness may be adjusted.
For the best interest of all concerned, we feel
justified in writing you thusly, and feel confidence
i'll your patriotism, your love for the L. ID. c.,
and your kindly interest for the old vets.
Very sincerely,
W. J, Parker, 856 First street, and others.

Why Didn't the Grand jury Do
It's Duty?

THE Romanists of Savannah are bent on
setting up a Papal Monarchy of their
own, governed by Bishop Kelley and the Ital-
ian pope.
The Savannah papers tell us that Samuel
Adams has been holding private conferences
with the pope's sworn subject, Kelley, with
view to the evasion of the highest lar of
the land, and to the contemptuous disregard
Of Attorney General Walkers official in
struction to our pro-Catholic State School
superintendent Martin Luther Britain.
We will watch the progress of the intrigue
between Adams and Kelley, and see whether
on June LIST, the undemocratic proCatholic
Board of Education of Savannah persists IN
violating the law, as it has been doing for
many years.
Samuel Adams is the ex-judge of the SUI
preme Court who uses Sunday for his lecture
against lawlessness, and the other days of the
week to practice it himself
Samuel and his disloyal Kelley are piling
up trouble for themselves and that self-elec-
tive Board, if they only knew it.
They are strangely infatuated if they sup
pose that the people of Georgia will be unable
to find a curb for Roman Catholic treason.
Defiance of law goes in Catholic Massachu
sets, Colorado, Louisiana, New Jersey, and
California, but it won't 60 in Georgia.

he says that Kelley is Objectionable to the
Vets on account of his being a Catholic
The letter of the Vets to the Daughters
shows, that the Vets protested, because Kelley
has taken treasonous attitude toward our
government, and has set an example which
leads directly to bitter collisions be-
tween the churches that take their law from
home sources. and the one church which takes
It's law from Rome sources.
Does Mr.. Howell see no civI acar ahead, If
the Kelley attitude Is not rebuhed end sup
pressed?
When Gen Grant, in the shadow of death,
was writing his Memoirs, he referred to the
fact that he had been Nnow Nothing; and,
while he said that he had never taken any
active part, he realized the menace of the
Roman church, because it claimed supremacy
over our law, for the Catholic laws made by
the popes.
Gen Grant, in the solemnity of approach
ing dissolution, wrote, that this claim Of
popish supremacy ''MUsr BE RESISTED AND SUP
PRESSED, AT WHATEVER COST"
Bishop Kelley has raised that issue. He
has put it squarely up to the State, that Ro-
man Catholics will not take their law from
the Georgia legislature.
What does Clark Howell think of the issue?
Which side is he on?
The Confederate Vets say that they think,
as all patriotic American should think, on that
ISSUE and that they are on the side of Geor-
gia law
They respectfully gave this as their reason
for objecting to Kelley, and the Daughters
would have been we'll advised, had they needed
that most courteous and respectful protest.
They were influenced by the Catholic women
into making deplorable mistake, when they
treated the old heroes with such studied con-
tempt.
Is it too late to implore those Macon ladies
to reconsider their action?
Is it too late for the Daughters to display
fliaz reverence for the feeble remnant of the
host that wore and immortalized the Gray?
Some of those aged and worn Vets won't be
here at The next Memorial: let us hope that
the Daughters will act the part of afectionate
daughters: if they, do, it will be for them,
thereafter, grateful memory.

The Roman Catholics in Savannah have
been violating that law for a whole genera
ton, and they are still defying it.
Can that sort of thing be tolerated, dzecays?
The law of the State, and of the United
States, prohibits the holding of any citizen
to servitude, or to any involuntary captivity;
and the Roman Catholics have fagrantly
violated that law, also.
They have been using the so-called Juve-
nile Courts to get slave-labor into their work.
shops in other States and girls have been car
ried out of Georgia by alleged 'Police Mat
rons," and dumped into papal hell-holes in
Ohio.
Is that sort of thing to be tolerated, for
ever?
The statutes of Georgia, on one subject, read
thus
"Be it enacted by the General Assembly of
Georgia, and it is hereby enacted by authority
of the same that in addition to the statutory
duties Of the grand juries in the respective
counties of the State, said grand jury shall,
at each regular term of the courts in their re-
spectlve counties, appoint a committee Of not
less than five members from the grand jury,
whose duty it shall be as soon as practicable
after they are named on said committee to
visit, inspect and carefully inquire into every
such sanatorium, hospital asylum, House of
the Good Shepherd, convent and monastery,
for the purpose of ascertaining what persons
are confined within said institutions, and by
what authority such persons are held within
the same"
The ST. Francis convent in Savannah defied
this law, and the woman who holds the keys
on those imprisoned women, refused to allow
the committee of the Grand Jury to perform
its legal duty.
The statute prescribes the s1co1n duty of
the Grand jury committee, thus:
"That it shall be the duty of said committee
appointed by the grand jury, to separately
confer with each inmate of said institutions,
for the purpose Of ascertalning from said IN
mate how he or she came to be confined in said
institution and what service, if any, in the
way of labor has been imposed upon said in
mate, and whether said inmate desires to re-
main in the custody of said institution"
Is there anything unreasonable in such a
law?
Can it hurt any legal institution?
If so, let Bishop Kelley tell us hOaO.
IF his prisoners want to stay In the dun
geon, they can say so.
If his prisoners want their freedom, they
should have the right to say so.
On the same street with those imprisoned
women, there is a bunch of bachelor priests,
mostly foreigners.
These priests have the liberty to come and
go, but the nuns are kept under lock and key.
Wig the difference?
The committee meekly took it's dose of
papal insolence, and did not perform its
socor1 duty.
Why not?
Is the Protestant oath of office null and
void, when it conflicts with the law of Rome?
If Bishop Kelley wants to have a trial of
strength between home made Protestant law,
and homemade Catholic law, he can get it.
He's headed for it, and he may be dead
