Prospects of Grand Celebration of the
Fourth of July.
In response to cal OF Mayor Gregory,
large number of citizens assembled at the
Court house last night to make the prelim-
mary arrangements for proper celebration
of the Fourth of July in this city. The
attendance was larger than at any prelim-
mary meeting held for years, and those
present were unanimous in the opinion
that unusual efforts should be put forth
this year to have splendid celebration of
called to order by the Mayor, who briefly
stated the objects of the meeting and called
for nominations for Chairman.
On motion of District Attorney Bruner
Mayor Gregory was unanimously elected
Chairman of the meeting, and G. F. Baker,
Secretary.
The Mayor stated that in view of the in
creasing population of the city he thought
the celebration of this year ought to be
something better than usual.
Ed. NJ. Martin agreed with the Chairman
stating also that the members of the Ma
tional Teachers Association would prob
ably be in the State on the Fourth of July,
and il would be proper to show them how
much patriotism there is here.
J. W. Guthrie moved the appointment of
an Executive Committee of twenty-five
members, with the Chairman and Secretary
added, by which the various sub-commit-
tees shall be appointed. The motion pre-
vailed, and the Chairman appointed the
following gentlemen as such committee:
F. D. Ryan, ]. w. Guthrie, J. n. Larkin,
Fred Kolliker, W. Mclaughlin, R. B. Har-
mon, f. B. Willis, Joseph Judd, E. NJ.

Coleman, Z. A. Bower, W. r. Ormsby,
Elwood Bruner, Frank Gregory, Thomas
Dwyer, ]. C. Kelly, A. S. Hopkins, f. B.
Carroll A. Abbott, C. K. McClatchy.
On motion of Frank D. Ryan the Execu-
tive Committee was clothed with full power
to appoint subcommittee and transact all
other business necessary to make the cele-
bration success.

William Stock was arrested at Gait yes

in this county. His examination will take
place before Justice of the Peace W. 81.

RUSSIA,S DEMANDS,

Prince Bismarck has obtained from
Count 5chouveloff, Russian ambassador,
the demands that Russia is inclined to
make. The Car asks the substantial
xeeognition of the right of Russia to con-
Ql Bulgaria and Roumeiia. Prince
d5nand and the Sobranje are to be
wiped out and a Russian commission,
with Turkish colleague, is to reorgan-
ize the government and army and con-
troll the elections for the new Sobranje.
Russia further claims the right to occupy
the principality until the Car deems it
proper to withdraw his troops. Bis
marck has advised Schouveloff not to pre-
sent these demands to the Court of vi
emma, as they will certainly be rejected
without discussion.
This is the most wal like note of all.
If Russia insists upon these demands
and attempts to act upon this line Aus
tria will certainly resist her encroach-
ments. War could hardly be averted in
that case and war in which Russia,
Germany and Austria were engaged
would be waged on no petty scale.
Italy is restless. She is massing her
naval forces, apparently. Her latest
quarrel with France has been smoothed
over, but there is room for suspicion
that she will be ready to strike France
in case the latter tries to take advantage
of war in the east of Europe to get that
revenge which the majority OF the
French desire to wreak on Germany.

RETROSPECTIVE.

The Gala Week has done Palatka
much good already AMI it will do more
in the future 1t will be seen by refer
ence to our local columns that the swift
Cheemaun is now a Palatka yacht,
owned III part by residents of the city.
1t is said in addition that Mr.. Davids,
its former owner, who still retains a
share in the yacht, expects to have a
greater interest in the city in the future
and will enter the new boat that is build
ing for him in the rolls of the St. Johns
Yacht Club.
The gun clubs that were invited to
compete for the prizes offered here have
expressed their regret that business pre-
vented their accepting the invitations
| and challenges sent them. The opening
of the South Florida Exposition at San
| ford interfered with military target
| practice. In fact the hasty nature of
| the preparations robbed the Gala Week
| of several of its attractions
| But we had the two contests between
| the champion oarsmen, the races be-
tween Florida yachts, the ball, which
| was a great success. the boxing matches,
which not only afforded much amuse-
ment, but helped pay for other matters
| of expense, and minor sports. We had a
crowd in the city Wednesday, and had it
not rained SO hard Thursday, we should
have seen the excursion trains and boats
packed on that day.
] The inference is that if the Gala Week
| is repeated next year, it will be a greater
success if preparations are begun earlier.
1t takes some time for organizations in
| other towns and counties to make up
their minds to accept and for the people
| whom we wish to draw here to conclude
that it is worth their while to come.
The wonder is not that there were not
greater crowds here, but that there were
SO many on the first days and that every
| thing passed off so successfully.
When the idea was first preached there
was little time to make ready for it.
Then it was dropped for awhile until
another wave of energy passed over the
|
work. Then the most sanguine were
! afraid the selected dates were too near at
hand and there was talk of postpone
ment. But more energy was put into it
and the result was success.
New Orleans enjoyed last Tuesday her
annual Mardi Gras parade and ball. She
will soon be making ready for she next
| one, if she has not already taken the
first steps. Cincinnati's annual ex-
positions require nine months of prepare
ton although after nearly score of
years of experience her people know
| just what to do and how to do it. In
| this little matter of the Gala Week lies
the germ of an annual festival which
Will draw more persons every year to
Palatka than our present hotel capacity
| will accommodate.

well expect to defend the State against
foreign enemies by the force of public
sentiment alone There must be organi-
cation, leadership, discipline These are
all lacking in the Palatka Fire Depart
ment. 1t must have chief who will
be present at every fire, who will be
come personally acquainted with the
men. who will labor to improve their
morale, who will know the exact con-
dition of the fire apparatus, will teach
the members how to distribute the force
to the best advantage SO that we shall no
longer see each hose company aiming
for the same fire plug at any fire. and
will labor to so discipline the men that
every member will know his place and
give his attention to his particular duty.
The annual meeting is near at hand.
There should be reorganization then.
That means that the reduction made by
the insurance companies in the rates
here must be maintained. On the disci-
pline and effectiveness of the fire depart
nent depend the rates of insurance in
this city. To repeat it, the amount of
money to be paid out in the future to in
surance companies depends upon the
degree of discipline in the fire depart
rpant

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

We understand there is some talk of a
paid lire department in st. Augustine.
One of the objections made when it was
hrst proposed to make fire departments
paid departments of city government
was that men would not work so zeal
onsiy and expose their lives so freely in
protection of life and property for pay
as they would out of enthusiasm. Time
and the long roll of heroes who have lost
their lives in combats with the flames in
American cities has proved how erron-
eous this idea was. A small city
ike Palatka can not afford a
pud fire department. In place
OF the discipline and devotion of body
OF men who are pal to give their whole
time to the protection of the city we
must rely upon the enthusiasm of our
volunteer firemen and their sense of
duty to the public. But enthusiasm and
the sense Of duty are not sufficient. As

There is no Democrat in the country
more respected than Judge Allen q.
Thurman, of Ohio. He is so fortified in
the respect of the people OF all parties
that the most debased of political thim-
ble-riggers in that State dare not assall
him publicly. He is engaged in the
prosecution of gang of alleged Demo-
Gratis who are accused of altering certain
tally sheets at the fall election of 1886.
In opening the case for the people he
said: There is no politics in this case;
there are no parties here. should be
ashamed to call myself Democrat, as
you know / am, if / let lmy politics
shield crime like this. Judge Thur
man is not one to give up to party
what was meant for mankind. That is
good enough Democracy for Florida.
