PALATKA, FLA, APRIL IS, 1884.

The republicans who have been
drawing the color line in Georgia
under the leadership of Gen. Long
street and Jonathan Norcross pre-
tend to intimate acquaintance with
tdeir quondam allies. Says Uncle
Jonathan "The first thing usually
resorted to to control Negroes vote
is the whisky bottle. If that fails
money may next be resorted to-"
Our colored fellow citizens will take
warning. To this complexion will
they all come at last.

To all Democrats the discussion
between the two wings of the party
is most interesting and the views of
our prominent representatives are
nowhere so clearly and tersely pre-
scented as in the pages of the Amer
lean Register, published at Wash
ington Among its contributors are
numbered some of our most infuen-
tial leaders it is committed to the
support of no particular candidate,
and we should be glad to see it
placed in the hands of every demo-
crat in our section. In a private
letter to Hon. P. P. Bishop of our
county, Hon. Geo. Ticknor Curtis
says 'This paper is going to be a
very useful instrument in the pres
idential campaign" We have de-
rived both pleasure and profit from
a careful perusal of its pages, and
will place it at club rates to those
who wish to subscribe.

THE FEDERAL SCHOOLS.

1t has now been two weeks since
we expressed our fears that the edu-
cational bill, if passed, would lead to
Federal interference with our public
schools. Senator Butler, of South
Carolina, has recently written a let
ter to Hon. T. A. Conner, of Able
vile, and on this the Charleston
News and Courier, of the 18th, says:
Senator Butler believes that the
only object of the Republicans in
voting money in aid of the common
schools is to control its disbursement
from Washington, and thereby to
regain control Of The negro votes,
and ultimately Federal school in
spectors would be appointed and the
entire direction of the schools would
pass into Federal hands,"
One of our exchanges rated us for
seeing smoke where there was no
fire, but Senator Butler is on the
ground; he is one of our most trust
ed leaders and his letter shows the
reality of the danger.
We quote also from the Nashville
World; Senator Bayard in his
Spaacb AGAINST +biS hill cold ,-orv-
wisely that if the vast surplus that
is in the vaults of the government
now, and is being added to day in
and day out, under the operations of
the present internal war tariff, is al
lowed to remain in the hands and
pockets of the people, the states
could and would educate their own
people"

A correspondent writing from Nor
wich, n. Y, says: In the summer of
1910 A. R. Warner, of Guilford, while
walking through a meadow in Unaville
valley, came across a large turtle The
shell of the turtle showed the marks
where initials and date had been cut in
it, bnt the initials of one person only and
the date on which they had been carved
could be made QUIZ. R. j., 1885. Mr..
Warner cut A. R. w, 1910, in the shell
and released the turtle. In 1880 the tur-
tie was discovered in the same locality
by some boys. The E. R. J., 1885 and
A. R. w, 1910, We're still very distinct.
In addition were H. J. H., 1870 E. B.,
1875 and s. D. A. 1890. The turtle
was again turned loose. A few days ago
it was found again in the field where it
was seen in 1910 by Mr.. Warner No adj
ditional carvings We're on the shell. The
turtle is no larger than it was forty years
ago, showing that it must have been full
grown at that time"

me Building Inspector Ordinance

The ordinance offered in the City
Council and not yet acted upon will, III
passed, but perfect the system OF build
ing inspections commenced in the city
about year ago An ordinance APP
pointing a building inspector and de-
fining his duties was much needed, ana
the REPUBLICAN never lost any favor
able opportunity for advocating the or
dinance. That there were many things
in detail necessary to complete the or
dinance and make it effective overlook
ed as might have been Expected, and that
there are defections and weak places
in it cannot be denied.
This, however, does not stand to the
discredit of those who favored the Or
dinance, and were instrumental in its
passage. Probably no ordinance covers
so much ground, and has more varied
interests to meet than the building in
spection ordinance. 1t has already
done much good in various ways, and
now that it is fairly under trial there
are probably none who want uniformity
of building plan and secure buildings
who would favor a repeal.
Time and experience are, however,
bringing to the surface the
weak points in the ordinance, and these
are what the ordinance lately introdu-
ced are calculated to remedy. For in
lstance, the front of a building is torn
out and new front is to be put in, OF
some other changeis to be made Of
radical nature which might weaken
and threaten the stability of the struct.
ure, according to the present building in
spector ordinance in force the building
inspector can assume no supervision o
such change.
1t is not difficult to see that sucl
changes should be carefully made ant
} really need closer inspection than tn
e erection of entire new buildings. IL
, meet such changes and other contingen
D cies which have arisen and which tn
)old ordinance does not meet Is tn

GOVERNOR STOCKLEY DID NOT TAKE
our advice to appoint Republican to
succeed Judge Wales upon the State
court bench, and thereby keep the
court equally balanced politically. AS
the Democrats so earnestly advocate
non-partsanship in legislation we natll-
rally thought the appointment of a
Republican Judge would be a practical
illustration of practicing what they
preach. But to be candid, We did not
expect the Governor to appoint Re
publican Judge, and now that he has
appointed Hon. William G. Whitley, a
Democrat, to that position, we frankly
say that the appointment meets with
the entire appreciation Of the people.
If the Republicans had been permitted
to recommend Democrat Of their choice
for theappointment,C Col. Whitley would
most undoubtedly have been the man
chosen. His ability is uudoubted, and
his tirmncSS and impartiality have often
been favorably tested. We congratn-
late the new Judge.

the elections are to be held, especially
in New Castle County, where the local

selecting the places. The neglect OF
the County Committee at its meeting
on Saturday last without any instruc-

THE OUTLOOK FOR BUSINESS IN
Chicago is said to be very diSconraging.
Rents are high and $4,000 people are
said to be out of work. These compli-
cation are made unusually gloomy by
the discussion Of the tariff and the de-
pressing effects of Presidential cleo
ton which are always disastrous to
trade. The most discomfort seems to
exist amongst the socialists and foreign
ers. These are indications of the rent
