Il read in my old home paper yester-
day that Bill Traynor was dead. There
was a character Did l ever tell you the
story about him?
"Bill once sat on jury in one Of my
hrst cases. 1t was an assault and bat
tory case. The trouble came up over the
attempt to build "a fence across high
way. There were two defendants and
four prosecuting witnesses. The trial
WAS held at the home of the justice Of

jury of six The Justice wife stood in

"They didn't make any case against
us-my partner ana | appeared for the
defcnse-but we knew the jurymen
wanted their fees, and they wouldn't
get any if the defendants won. SO we
were not very hopeful.
"The six jurymer went out into the
corntield to deliberate. They were gone
about two hours and then brought i'll a
verdict of guilty and fined each of the
defendants s. and costs The jury was
about to be discharged when my partner
jumped up and said to one of the jury
men: Say, who are you? | don't re-

foreman spoke up aud said: That's all
right. Bill Traynor couldn't wait. He
went off home. and we got Joe here to
take his place.
Chats fact. Bill had put in
subs titute on the jury after they got out
in the corntield The justice said it WAS
all right anyway, so long as there was
majority of the jury present, but 1
got up and threatened to sue him on his
bond, SO he got scared and set aside the
verdict and discharged our clients.
"After | came on the bench Bill
Traynor was up before me for stealing

THE CITY ELECTION.

Our people will be called upon
to entertain some large assem-
blages Of distinguished people
from all parts of the country dur
ing the next few months. 1t be-
comes US therefore TO have city
officials who will uphold the honor
and morality of our city and ad-
vance our business and CONNER
cial interests. At the city cleo
ton next week we will be called
upon to select competent men to
fill our offices, not from political
standpoint, nor from a religious
or sectarian standpoint but from a
high moral and business stand
point. Tampa and Jacksonville
have had experiences in allowing
the rum shops and dens of iniqui-
ty to control municipal affairs and
well will it be for our city to profit
by their experience. Cast your
ballot on next Tuesday for the
men whose efforts in the past have
5een to stamp cut in;quity and
immortality IN whatever form it
may have appeared. The issue is
neither politics ncr religion. Both
these tests have been eliminated
from the present contest. But
the moral test is still and will be
the important factor and moral
integrity is after all the greatest
attribute of a city official. Every
voter should make diligent inquiry
into the moral and intellectua
fitness of every candidate for mu-
nicipal office. As long as the
good people of our city vote for
and elect libertines, drunk arcs and
pot house politicians to high and
honorable positions just so long
will we encourage vice, intemper-
perance. immortality and debauch-
cry. For the good of society, the
home, the social circle aud the
honor of our city let US raise the
standard of moral excellence and
make every aspirant for municipal
honors toe the mark.

Quite too often is old age repre-

of winter, with its biting winds
whistling through leafiess boughs,
and its frozen clods ringing like
iron beneath our feet. In our
American climate there is a more
genial season that bears the pictu-
rescue name of Indian Summer,
when nature puts on sweet smile
before the wintry frcsts set in, ard
the lingering foliage is clad in
crimson and gold. A Christian
life has it's bright Indian Summer
also. The harvest of good deeds
from good seed sown in early youth
is being garnered. Graces adorn
the veteran believer and bcautify
him like the scarlet glories Of an
autumn forest. Like shocks of
corn, ripened in sunshine and
shower, are those servants ard
landmarks of the Lord who still

orchards of Beulah, and yield THEN
fruits every month, They ire al

their Master.

grand old poet was fo2d of repeat
