Editor PALATKA NEWS:
Your valued journal is most well
come visitor to Putnam county folks
in south Fla. Putnam is our home
county, and whatever concerns our
beloved Putnam concers us. We are
gratified to note that DR.. Sprague is
a candidate tor the House. In his
opposition to the perfideous dispen-
sary law, he shows himself an honest
man.
| think him possessed of those
sterling qualities that go to mark the
Christian and the gentleman.
No more suitable selection for
member of the House, can be made
by our democratic friends in dear old
Putnam.
The writer is strictly temperate
and never INDUCES in alcoholic
drink. / would not take n drink OF
whiskey with my own father, and
have refused to do so. Still, as this
is free country, ] have no right to
say that no one shall drink whiskey
| will advise against intemperanct
in all its forms, and am opposed to
turning the state into the business OF
rumselling. L am II South CARROLL
nian, and | am satisfied that there
are fully us many blind Tigers" in
South Carolina as there are licensed
bar rooms in Florida. Friends,
beg you to vote against every man
that dare support this dispensary
iniquity. 1t is a league with hell
and covenant with the devil
Florida wants no dispensary in hers.
Turn down every blatent son of his
mother, that tries to work dispen-
sary logic and buncomb upon you.
Ask him who is to be state Dispen-
ser? Ask him if he will accept the
job at 5000 a year.
