So DESPERATE are the Democrats OF
this county and so anxious to win in the
next election that they are making all
manner of statements. They base their
strongest hopes on delusive idea of dis
satisfaction over the Republican candi-
dates. Why should there be any objec-
ton to our ticket? Look at the candi
dates on both tickets, and if the Republi-
cans are not better in every respect than
the Democratic nominees, we are no Judge.

IN their efforts to show dissatisfaction
IN Republican ranks the Democratic pa
pers are making some great statements.
In the Philadelphia Record yesterday,
this appeared:
1t was alleged that Dr. Parry the pres
ent Senator, and Assemblyman Wildes,
who were defeated for the nomination by
Mr.. Borton, were ready to bolt their party
provided an acceptable Democrat was
named for the office
This is all rot. The gentlemen referred
TO are Republicans from principle, and
will not become Democrats from disap-
pointment, malice or any other like feel
ing. If the opposition hangs its chances
of success upon such fimsy basis as
this, it is certainly in desperate strait.

SATURDAYS convention was a gather
ing of the free silver clans. 1t was or
ganized and controlled by them, its plat
form pledged answering reafirmation oil
the Chicago platform, and its candidates
we're earnest advocates of the 10 to !
theory last fall Howard E. Packer, the
candidate for Senator, is a member of the
Board of Freeholders. He has served
once before in the same position, and was
member of the Assembly in 1928. He
is an uncompromising Democrat, one who
thrusts his partisanship in your face with
"what are you going to do about it r.
air. If he should be successful in his eff
forts to be elected no Republican need
expect any favor at his hand. Hence no
member of that party should aid him by
word or deed. When in the Legislature
Packer voted for the race-track bill, al
though he knew that the people of his
county were opposed to the measure.
Judging from this action it can safely be
asserted that he will always be governed
by party rather than by the people.
David Sharp; candidate for Assembly, is
also member of the Board of Freehold
ers. He is quiet sort of fellow, who has
never shown any especial adaptation to
high public work.
William M. Potts, the other Assembly
candidate, has represented his township
in the Board of Freeholders and has also
served in township offices.
The ticket is not as strong as the Dem
ocrats might have chosen. They rely on
the candidate for Senator pulling the
others through, and will probably sacri-
fee them if necessary to save the head of
the ticket

CONTRARY to first advices the consti
tutional amendments were not defeated
last Tuesday, with the exception of that
on woman suffrage. That the other two
pulled through is somewhat surprising in
view of the activity of the opponents Of
the anti-gambling amendment and the
apathy of those who did not practice what
they preached. The defeat of the woman
suffrage clause is explained by the Pater-
SON Call which says: "What we want to
call attention to is the remarkably and
surprisingly large majority against woman
suffrage. Who'd a. thought it. AS the
poor hen-pecked husband sneaked up to
polls and quietly stuck his ballot in the
box, he said to himself: Here's where l

praying that an election be ordered for
the removal of the county site to Arran
new town on the Carrabelle, Tallahas-
see and Georgia railroad, only three miles
west Of Crawfordville.
The latest advices from Crawfordvllle
say that this movement is headed by par
ties, who were prominent in the school
contest, that the bad feeling caused there
by has been revived and intensified, and
that there is great excitement among the
people, Assuming that the petition is in
due form and contains the requisite num-
Der of signatures, 1t is thought that the
commissioners will be compelled to order
the election, and then will begin a fight
that may continue in the county for
generation.

ALLIGAToRs AT A BAPTIzING.
Saurinns ViciOusly Attack n Party of
Negro Bnptists.
From the New York Times.

FROM Int NtW lOAh
Sanford, Fla.-A funny story was related
here yesterday by a party Of fishermen
from up the river, relating to the attack
made upon a party OF negro baptizers by
an alligator while the minister was i'm
mersing his converts.
According to their account, a colored
Baptist preacher and his flock had gone
to the St. Johns river some miles above
here, and had arranged for baptism OF
many converts. Suddenly. while in the
middle Of the ceremonies. several big al
llgators came dashing into their midst.
The minister was seized and dragged
down. as were also several of the converts.
The negro converts shrieked and yell
ed. while the people on the banks shouted
In reply. The converts we're all clothed In
hImsy white gowns. which gave way read
ily and as the alhgators had seized these
instead OF their arms or legs, they soon
got away. As they escaped they rushed
frantically towards the shore, the ALI
gators cavOrting In among them and caus-
ing a great amount OF excitement and fear.
The minister was seized a second time and
dragged under, when some OF his brethren,
armed with clubs, went 10 his aid
They pummeled the big gator" until
finally one Of them was seized. Things
began to look squally for the preacher
and his converts, when the fshermen's
opportune arrival turned the tide. They
fred at the alligators. killing two and en-
abling the frightened negroes to escape
20 the shore.
They were In pltlful plight. their
gowns torn to pieces while some were
badly bitten by the vicious reptiles. The
minister and one old deacon Jared the
worst, being hurt quite badly.
The fishermen state that the trouble was
caused by lot OF dogs that were with
the party barking and fighting. which
caused the saurians 10 come out. They
also state that they think the alngators
we're breeding. ana that they were In a
dangerous state. 10 has caused much COM

From the Indianapolis Sentinel.
Americans are fast growing used n ,ba
sight OF the school children whose spec
tacled eyes are in contrast to their YOUTH
ful faces. Statistics show that In the Uni
ted states at least 80 per cent. OF the school
children are near-sighted, and this Is only
one OF the many defects from which the
eye suffers.
In the June Review of Reviews, Dr. All
port OF Minnesota, who discusses this i'm
portant theme-the defective eyesight OF
American children-gives for the prime
cause Of the degeneTacy Of human eve
slsht the excessive strain upon the eve
produced by Intellectual pursuits. That
intellectual progress and ocular derener.
alton are inseparable and that savages do
not suffer from defective sight Is proven
oy the fact that among Indian children
only , per cent are affected bv rnyopia
and among negroes only "a per cent. OF
ZOO Mexican children examined eight only
were near-sighted, sixty far-sghted and
ten astgmatic. In the United states 30
per cent. Of the school children have ia
fective eyes, while in Germany, where ali
sorts OF intellectual pursuits abound. and
the typography OF books Is OF the most
ehecrable description, 90 per cent. OF the
children are myopic
OF course, the subject IL OF the greatest
Importance. and remedial measures should
be taken by both parents and teachers.
The latter should be trained to detect ~
first signs OF defective eyesight ana work
should be arranged TO best suit the eyes
OF the pupils. But many parents do not
