My husband has his life insured in the Equitable—I hate the word. He did
it to protect me and the children in case of his death. But now we are
undecided whether to keep up the thing or not. Do you think the Equitable
might fail to fulfill the contract in case of death? I should like to
know your opinion. We have just paid three premiums and another will be
due next spring. I have two little children and if my husband should be
taken we should be in a dreadful plight. But we are trying to make other
provisions. It is simply outrageous the way the people are treated. It
fills one with helpless rage.
I was interested in the article “Phases of the Peonage Question.” Was the
planter who “had to kill a negro” ever tried for it? I would like to know
that planter’s name and address, so that I can follow his suit when it
comes off. I am interested in this question. Won’t you request the author
to give me this information, if you cannot give it. I prefer to have it
through the pages of the Magazine. With best wishes for your success in
trying to bring about more just conditions.

_Charles Burbage, Row, I. T._
I have read and reread every copy of TOM WATSON’S MAGAZINE from cover to
cover and like each number better than the proceeding one. It is far the
best of the fifteen magazines that I read each month and I would not do
without it for twice the price.
Your editorials are convincing. Just keep on pumping the hot shot into
the trusts and corporations for, if they are let alone, they will soon
be taking the house and lot while the old man and boys are at home. They
would not wait for the old lady to become a widow.

_Matilda Magley, Green Ridge, Mo._
I have been one of your true friends, since I got acquainted with you as
a Congressman. I love your style of calling things and people by their
right names. Your paper is doing a noble work now, while the people are
being confused over the late insurance frauds, railroad and banking
scandals, trust, corporations and thefts from the honest common laborer,
and they see it is worth while to do a little of their own thinking. I
hope the day will soon dawn, when people will see the folly of relying on
other men’s views not in accord with true reform.
Yours till victory is won.

_W. O. Robinson, Smyrna, Ga._
I regard your magazine as one of the grandest magazines of the day and
I, with many other loyal Georgians, regard it as a great privilege to do
honor to the illustrious name of Tom Watson as the South’s Greatest Son.
I voted for Watson for President, and am proud of my vote.

_G. S. Ward, Island, Ky._
I regard Tom Watson’s Magazine as one of the best magazines published
today for truth telling and divulging the hypocrisy of high official men.
It now has plenty of cartoons. In fact it is the best I ever read.
