Jacob Ewert
Jacob Gerhard Ewert (a.k.a. J. G. Evert,[1] 1874-1923) was a Mennonite socialist and pacifist from Hillsboro, Kansas. From 1909 he was editor of the German-language newspaper, Vorwärts. Ewert wrote books and pamphlets on socialism, on temperance, and on warfare.[2][3][4] Historian Duane Sotltzfus described Ewert as a "tireless advocate for conscientious objectors, writing articles and counseling many draftees" when writing for Vorwärts.[1] The Newton, Kansas, newspaper Der Herold—edited by H.P. Krehbiel—challenged his published support of socialist agendas.[5]
Ewert attended the Mennonite Bethel College in North Newton, Kansas, and later taught both there and at a Mennonite Bretheren college, Tabor College in Hillsboro, Kansas.[5]
