Which Way Are We Edueating2

In an article in Agricultural Ed
ucation on the way we are educa-
ting, DR.. G.. w. Burkett writes as
follows:
"To the careful observer and earn
est enthusiast for a higher and bet
ter life on the farm, there comes a
thought true and forcible-are we
educating toward the farm or away
from it? We look at our primary
schools, our high schools, and do
we not see the tendency almost
wholly against the farm? There is
a remarkable development and in
terest in agricultural education in
Europe, where it is common for
agriculture to be taught in every
grade, from the primary school
through college. What is the ten
dency in this agricultural nation
of ours? Too often, We fear, away
from the farm. The common school
recruits the academy, the college,
the university; but does it recruit
the agricultural and mechanical
college, or do what it ought to re-
cruit the ranks of good farmers?
May we not hope the time is near
at hand when agriculture will be
taught not only in the common
schools, but the high schools as
as well?"
Governor Hoard says: is there
any good reason why this farmers
school, the country school, should
not teach the farm boy the eIe-
ments of agriculture; give him some
knowledge of the technical terms
he must meet in farm journals and
farm books, and start him on the
road to larger study and stronger
love for farm life, and thus save
him from deserting the farm? All
over Europe there is Il great re-
vival of agricultural education in
the primary schools; when that is
done here, you will have larger use
and destiny for the experiment sta
tion and the agricultural college"

the conduct of the primary, the
party as a whole will have to bear
the responsibility, and no blame
can possibly attach to the local
committees. Obedience is the basis
of all organization. Besides, no
principle is at stake in this issue,
it being simply a difference of
opinion upon a technical detail.
The opposition at best will be a
small minority, and by going to
extremes can only succeed in COM
plicating what is now perfectly
simple situation. 1t is entirely un-
likely that at this late day the state
com mittee will recede from its pO-
sition, and the primary will be
held regardless of the action
of the troublesome counties.
Any refusal to obey the call will
result in the disfranchisement of
the protestants, and we all know
what that means-a revival of the
fierce factional fights that vexed
the entire state some years ago.
Factionalism is a bad business for
Florida, and it is the first duty of
every citizen to keep it down as
much as possible.

The south is a very important
portion of this union. There is no
difference between the patriotism
of the average southern man and
the patriotism of the average north
ern man. Confidence or pretended
lack of confidence in the patriotism
of the south on the part of the pol
itician is not of serious conse-
quence. The south is today a more
important portion of this country
than it ever was in all its history;
and it is just as unnecessary for
one to continually harp upon the
patriotism of the south as it
would be foolish for anyone to ex-
press the opinion that the south is
untrue to itself by being untrue to
the country of which it is a most
conspicuous and important part.
"When two neighbors have been
reunited after a serious falling out,
they display their wisdom by
avoiding reference to their late
unpleasantness; and certainly these
neighbors would not contribute to
the cordial relations if, when the
two came together, the time was
employed in assuring one another
that the differences were at an end.
1t is just as well to take facts for
granted; and the patriotism of the
south does not really provide a
subject for serious comment"

Governor Jennings has made the
discovery that Florida has another
valid and just claim against the
federal government, being five per
cent. of the net proceeds of the sale
of state lands within the state of
Florida, as provided by an act of
congress approved March 3rd, 1915,
when Florida was admitted into
the union. The federal govern
ment has paid no part of this
money to the state, and the amount
now due the state is in the neigh
borhOOd of $4,000. Now that set
tlement of the other claim has or
will be made, add the sum above
named to it and it ramOunts to
nearly s?50,00O that the next leg
islature will-get a whack at. Surely,
as Sam Jones says, Florida is com
ing forward rapidly to the front
with both feet.

The wide-open primary is con-
stantly gaining ground in the state.
Already several counties have
adopted the widc-open primary
through their committees call, and
now comes Nassau, who follows
the same course rs Dade, DeSOto
and others. The qualifications in
the state committees call forbids
all Democrats from voting who did
not support the national, state and
county Democratic ticket two years
ago. The Nassau county commit

patriotism of the South

The Washington Star SAYS: Con
tidence in the patriotism of the
south is not confined to a few men
north of MaSUn and Dixon's line.
Mr.. Mckinley felt it and had occa-
gion to prove it. Mr.. Roosevelt
feels it and declares it. 1t is wide
spread among men who really
count in the national equation,
and it is not complimentary to our
dlscernment that 80 important Il
fact should for a moment anywhere
be Obscured by the mere cackle of
windjammers and machine politi-
clans
Is it not also about time to quit
discussing the ''patriotism of the
sOuth?"
The following remarks on this
subject we find in the last issue of
The COmmOner. Mr.. Bryan knows
the people of The south quite well:
1T will occur to the average man
that no material contribution to
the cordial relations existing be-
tween the north and the south is
made by constant reference to the
fact that at one time these sections
were pitted against one another. 1t

A Plea For Unity.


pressed its preference for an open
primary, and feels that the state
committee acted very unwisely in
trying to force the county commit
tees to adopt the close primary,
when they might better have left
the subject in a manner so that the
county committees could have
exercised their own good judgment
without conflicting with the state
committee, we do not want it to be
understood that we favor the ex-
treme step of bidding defiance at
the state party organization at this
stage of the game:
1t will be far better to carry out
the instructions of the call, for the
other course will result in the dis
reimbursement of the protestants,
and a consequent bitter factional
fight in sight that may last for
years.
For a fair statement of this ques-
tion we take pleasure in reproduc-
ing a few paragraphs from our es-
teemed contemporary, the Kissim-
meeValley Gazette, whose views on
the subject are quite in line with
our own, as follows:
after a period of perhaps un-
precedented peace and harmony
the Democrats of Florida seem to
be on the verge of political strife,
and unless the dissatisfaction is
checked the disruption of the party
will be seriously threatened. Ever
since the capture of the last state
convention by the radical element
the prospect of trouble has been APP
parent. The radical element is still
in the saddle, and in absolute con-
troll of the party machinery. Hav-
ing suffered a check at the last ses-
sion of the legislature in the refu-
sal by the lower house to swallow
the primary law devised by the
radical leaders, they made up for it
In the state committee by framing
the primary call IN accordance with
the programme of the state cOnvcn-
ton, ignoring III one or two partiC-
ulars the provisions of the primary
law. This action has given the
conservative element plausible
chance TO question the authority of
the committee, and they seem in
clined To make the most of their
opportunity.
THE first s. igm of open rebellion
came from Polk county i'm the form
of a circular letter from the chair
man of the local committee to the
local committees throughout the
state, in which it was suggested
that the state committee had eX-
ceeded its authority, and calling
for expressions of opinion upon the
advisability of diSputing the au-
thOrity of the state committee. No
concerted action seems to have
sprung from this step, but in sew
eral counties opposition tothe state
committee has developed. The state
committee has made one or two
small concessions in the hope of
satisfying the malcontents, but. in
the main, they are showing fight,
and insist upon the legality of their
call.
The position of the state COM
mittee seems to be that, right or
wrong, they are the paramount
party power and must be obeyed-
by the local committees. Their |

President RooseveIt's Special Mes
sage to Congress.
Washington, June 14.-The presi-
dent has sent message to congress in
regard to Cuban reciprocity plainly
stating his position in the matter and
advocating the plan for reduction of
duty on Cuban imports into this cOun.
try.
After calling the attention of con-
gress to the recommendation fSr
substantial reduction ct the tariff on
Cuban imports made in his message
last December, the president quotes
an appeal from President Palma to
the United States minister to Cuba,
asking for legislative relief before it
is too late and the country financially
ruined.
The president maintains that the
reasons for granting reciprocity to
Cuba far outweigh those of granting it
to any other nation. The United
States expects Cuba to treat her on an
exceptional footing and should, there
fore, be willing to do as much for the
infant republic. 1t is also to our adj
vantage as a nation that the Cuban
market should be controlled by Amer
ican producers. Besides this, we, as
nation, are obligated to complete the
work we have carried so near to COM
pletion.
The president asserts that the grant
ing of reciprocity stands alone, and
the question as to which of the differ
ent schedules of the tariff ought most
properly to be revised does not enter
into the matter in any way or shape.
The president opposes the rebate plan
and stands squarely for reduction of
the duty on all imports coming from
Cuba In answer to the argument
that the substantial benefit will not
go to the producer he says provisions
can and should be made to guard
against that possibility.

House Committee Limits Discussion OF
Philippine Bill.
Washington, June 16.-The house
committee on insular affairs has ar
ranged the details of the coming de-
bate on the Philippine civil govern
ment bill. General debate is to con.
tinue from next Wednesday until the
following Monday and thereafter on
Tuesday and Wednesday the measure
is to be open to amendment under the
five-minute rule, with final vote at
p. m. on Wednesday, June rs.
The day sessions are to begin at II
a. M, and night sessions lasting until
1890 p. M, are to be held for debate
only. Ample opportunity is to BE-
given for amendments, substitutes, ETC.,
although it is practically certain the
bill will pass as reported to the house.
The committee voted to substitute
the house bill for the senate measure
and a motion by Representative Pat
terson (Tenn.) to substitute the Dem
ocratic measure providing for Philip
pine independence after four years
preparatory period, was voted down.
Later the Philippine debate was pu.
off cne day in order to permit the de-
iciency appropriation bill to come up
on Wednesday, thus making the debate
run from the 10Th to the 26th inst,
when the final vote will be had.

SIX CHILDREN MURDERED.
Ter,ible Crime Of a Temporarily De-
ranged Mother.

Hazelhurst, Miss, June 17.-Details
have been received here of one of the
most terrible tragedies ever enacted
In this section of Mississippi as re-
suit of which the six children of Louis
Westrope, a we'll known farmer living
near the little. village Of Brandywine,
thirty miles southeast of Hazelhurst,
on the edge of Clairborn county, were
killed, while the mother, who is
charged with having committed the
murders while in a fit of temporary in
sanity, lies seriously wounded from q
bullet fired by herself. ).
Five dead children were found scat
tered around the premises with bull
let holes in the head of every child.
Among the ashes of the ruined home
were found the charred bones of the
infant baby.
Diligent search failed to locate the
body of the mother. Outside of the
yard was found bloody apron and
tracks leading towards swamp. From
facts in evidence the spectators soon
were convinced that Mrs. Westrope
had committed the deed. Search was
Immediately, instituted for her and she
was finally located in country grave
yard, where she had spent the night.
Beside her was rifle. When she saw
the searching party she placed the
rifle to her breast and pulled the trig-
ser, the bullet passing one inch below
tie heart, seriously, but not necessa-
iily fatally, wounding her.
The woman conversed intelligently
and said she did not know how she
came to be in the graveyard or what
she had done. Those who know her
and her family believe that she COM
mitted the crime when mentally de-
ranged,
