WATCH THE JEW.

And let me tell you something
else. It will pay you to keep at
least one eye on the Jew from
now on if you want to learn
something. And where are the
Jews? Everywhere, but most
ly in Russia. Probably half the
Jews of the world are in Russia.
Some authorities claim that
most Of the leaders Of Bolshe-
vism are Jews, while others say
the Jews are being singled out
as special objects of persecution
by the Bolshevists. Which is
all very confusing, and only goes
to show that we must not believe
everything we hear.
But it is at least a strange CO.
incidence that the new monster
(if it is a monastery should have
raised it's head in the land where
most of the Jews are, and where
they have suffered as they have
not suffered in any other land. It
indicates to me the movement
has something to do with get
ting the Jews back to Palestine.
Maybe the fires Of revolution
and anarchy have been kindled
under them for the purpose Of
driving them out of Russia and
sending them back to their
homeland. As>soon as the peace
treaty with Turkey is signed I
look for the way to open, and [
will not be surprised to see Rus
sian Jews focking into the Holy
Land by the millions.

AMT IT AWFUL?

"The plain truth is, we are in the
grip of the laboring man."-Charity
and Children, Townsville, N. C.
And what is wrong about
that, if you please? What does
the world depend on for its daily
living? What one class is abso-
lutely Indispensable? Is it the
capitalist, the politician or the
rich loafer? Not on your dear
life it amt. The one absolutely
indispensable class is the work
ing class-those who do the ac-
tual productive work of the
world.
Any other class. can go a-fish-
ing and stay as long as it wants
to, and it will not be badly miss
ed. But let every worker fold
his hands and quit for a week,
and see what happens.
So if the working man is real
ly the support of the world, why
shouldn't he have some voice in
running the world that he sup
ports? We have been in the
grip of the capitalist and exploit
ter, for 10, these many years,
and the s~anctifed pluto press
didn't bust off nary gallus howl
ing about that. But the very
minute there is some prospect of
the workers getting just a little
Of what they ought to have had
all the time-my stars alive,
what a fuss!

HE NEVER ANSWERED 1T,

The following is part of a per-
sonal letter that [ wrote to a
prominent Baptist preacher
with whom I was having some
correspondence. He never an
swered it, probably for the very
good reason that he COULDN'T
answer it. Believing that many
of my readers would like to en-
joy the dose that I gave the
good man, [ am printing it here:
You and I are wide apart on some
questlOns-nO S to deny that-and
I guess we both have a right to our
opinions. When this American gov
eminent was established, one of the
foundation stones under it was sup
posed to be RELIGIOUS LIBERTY.
Every man was to be allowed to Wor-
ship God according to the dictates of
his, own conscience. But we have
been rapidly growing away from that
foundation principle, and today we
have a religious autocracy known as
Orthodoxy" which arrogates to itself
| the right to say what other people
| shall believe and what they shallgnot
believe. And this orthodoxy which
dares to assume such great authori-
ty over others is not a bit more apt
to be right than was the othodoxy
of old which rejected and killed the
meek and lowly Jesus.
| am certain that you are a goOC
man and a sincere man, and that you
would not for all the world believe
and teach an error if you knew it
But at the same time, I am convinc.
ed that you, like so many other gooe
men, are believing and teaching err
rors. The one big outstanding errol
that all you orthodox people hold tx
is the Immortality of the Soul. It i:
purely a heather doctrine, and you
will find all the heather religions
teaching it today. But you will no
find it in the Bible.
I don't know why it is that Go,
permits SO many of the very bes
men to be so blind to the truth, I'm
less it is for the same reason that Fl
permitted the very best men amonl
His "Chosen People" in Jesus day t.
be blind.
Suppose it had been YOUR lot t
be living when Jesus was beginnin'
His ministry on earth. Suppose yo
had belonged to the orthodox an
respectable class of that day just a
you belong to the orthodox and re
spectacle class of this day. And SUP
, pose you had seer a poor, commonly
dressed, tramp-looking sort Of a ma
going along the road followed b
about a dozen ragged and barefoot
{ ed fishermen. How much chance d
: you think there would have been thu
you would have joined that crowd an
cast your lot with them? Not or

I have a standing notice to the
effect that I do not want postage

Olejo Cannon says: isaiah
prophesied the end Of war in
vain, and it is possible that
President Wilson's prophecies
may not be any more substan-
tial in results" And so that re-
presents what Olejo knows
about Isaiah, Ell? It seems
that what Olejo don't know
about the Bible would fill sever
al books. Isaiah did not pro-
phesy in vain about the end of
war, but it must be noted that
he never said Mr.. Wilson and
his League of Nations would
stop it.

chance in a million, and you know it

chance in a million, and you know 1T
as well as | do.
When told that that man claimed to
be the promised Messiah, and that he
had come to establish a new religion
and save the world, you would have
been just as far from believing it as
th,se orthodox Jews we're. You
would have pointed the finger of scorn
at Jesus and his followers. You
would have regarded them as heretics
and lunatics, and you would have in
sisted that their "pernicious heresies"
be suppressed by law. To be a
"Jesusite" in those days was just as
big a crime as it is now to be a
who had no "social standing" to lose
who DARED to do it.
Isn't it a fact that "orthodoxies" of
the past have invariably turned out to
be wrong and the "heretics" right?
ileo began to teach the great truths
ed, what great institution was it that
rose up or it's hind legs and demand
ed that they recant and quit. teaching
such heresies? The orthodox church,
to be sure. But didn't the heretics
finally turn out to be right? In view
Of SO many stupid blunders that
Orthodoxy" has made in every age
of the world, being an -adherent of
that ultra-respectable aggregation
does not impress me as being any
thing to brag about.
I have read and carefully consid-
cred all of the pamphlets that you
sent, but | did not find in them any
thing new. It is the same old line
of misunderstanding and false appli-
catien that | have heard all my life.
Dr.. Haldeman's handling of the Rus
sell question is SO ignorant that it is
positively silly, and shows that the
author had absolutely no proper I'M
derstanding of the thing he was try
ing to write about. Most of the
things that he says Russell teaches
are the very things that Russell
DOES NOT teach. Now I am not a
"Russellite." I believe much that he
teaches, and I have to disagree at
some points, but he is so much near
er right than the orthodox creeds that
| consider it a sin and a shame the
way he has been lied about. I be-
lieve in fair play, and if Orthodoxy
can't face Russellism and similar
"heresies" openly and honestly, with.
out resOrtlng to abuse and misrepre.
s%entation, it must be an indication
that Orthodoxy is afraid.
James Larkin Pearson.
And the big preachers refus'
al to answer that letter is a fur
ther proof that the whole bunch
of them are afraid. They JUS
simply know that their doctrines
will not bear the light of investi
| cation, and so they try to ge'
out of it by treating us will
: silent contempt" They wan
) to leave the impression that the!
are above arguing with us che
retics.;> But they can't run an.
! such a bluff as that. The rea
:, son they won't meet us and ar
que it out is because they ar

we know they are afraid.
