ILLINOIS KILLS A NORTHERN TUSKE-
GEE.

The difference between southern and northern treat
mept of the negro has said be that the south is
willing the negro should living in any way he
wishes but declines to permit him to spend his earnings
as he may wish; for instance, in riding in rst-cass
coaches The north on the other hand is willing the
negro should spend his money he WILL but refuses to
give him equal chance with his white brother in
earning living This view is emphasized in Illinois,
where at Ell Dorado an industrial school for negroes of
the kind Booker Washington has founded in Alabama,
has broken up by the whites, its teachers driven
from the county. and of its buildings destroyed
Negroes of unQueStioned responsibility who had
farms, sacrificing the savings of years. The sheriff of
the county has refused take evidence against the per-
petratOrs of the Outrages.
We left without explanation of the for the
attack the negroes. Apparently it is simply ola kind
with the action of other northern communities

against the negro because members of the have

is carried in the SOUTH but continuously only

word, he is happy and contented.
In the north the other hand, the negro must often
be puzzled to know his position in society. As abOrer
he has work which is specially committed to him;

prejudice denies him any fOOthod whatever.
The fact is the south understands the negro better
than the white north does and perhaps better than he
understands himself. Booker Washington gives his
good advice when he tells them stay the south
and compel the respect of their white negbors by de-
serving it.-Detrot Journal.

ONE MAN WHO DESERVES SUPPORT.

There is certainly one candidate who VII come
before the people of Florida at the approa ching pri
mary who has advanced some silent yet tangible
claims to the support of his fellow citizens. The
News refers to the candidacy of Hon. A. e. Groom
for the office of Comptroller. Mr. Groom APP
nointed to the office by Gov Jennings to fill the va
concv caused by the death Of Hon VIM. H. Rey-
noIds He has BEEN one year in Office and now
comes before the people that they may ratify or
reject him for thetwo remaining years for which the
lamented Reynold was elected.
Mr. Groom came into the office not as poiti-
cion but as business man, and during his brief
career he has not seen fit to change his character
His chief claim rests the fact that he has eased
the taxburden from the shoulders of the people ali
that was in his power, and has inaugurated reforms
which. when carried to their intended end, will
still further Tighten the load. The man who shows
disposition to manage state affairs in business
like an economical way is the sort of man the peo-
pie of Florida love to encorage.
The opposition of Il local contemporary, based on
mercenarv reasons, should have little wei ht The
delinquent tax list cut in two and the cost of
publication for over 900 descriptions saved to the
people of Putnam county alone. But this not
all Mr. Groom saved to the people of this county.
On all state lands heretofore sold to the state the
collector received Is cents for each certificate and
additional commission the amount of sales made
to the state These commissions have heretofore
gone to the collectors from the pockets of the peo-
pie. and the amounts thus saved will nearly double
that saved from publications.
Mr.. Groom NAV not have saved $4,000 to the
people but he saved them ali he could and for that
one reason alone is deserving of nothing but solid
support at their hands

NEVER MIND THE BARE ARMS.

A new order has been promulgated at Chicago
institution of learning. The girls must long
sleeves and also hats 1t is considered indicate to
go with bare head and uncovered arms in the open
air. In Omaha sissy professor has been SINH
larlv shocked and has issued like order.
If it Is immoral to be comfortable, then the more
liberal portion of the country stand the shock.
OF course if Il woman has arm that looks like the
leg of n picked chicken and has more angles than a
hvpotenuse it should he covered. Nobody wants to
see it. But the girl with pretty arms rather peases
the public. They the arms, are round and plump,
tanned of course, and the fact that they bare,
aid that her head is innocent of hat reminds you
that more and more it is becoming the fashion to
dress for comfort.
The shirt waist came and stayed. 1t was sensible
and pretty. The shoes shaped somewhat on the
ground plan of the human foot came and remained.
The golf skirts popularity does not wane because it
is peculiarly fitted to womans needs. 1t has con-
tributed to the health of the sex, without doubt.
Bareheaded! Why not? Women lived without hats
when there we're neither bonnets nor doctors.
Bare armed! 1t is comfortable and in good taste
If it is a fad Miss America can be trusted to pull
down her sleeves when the proper time comes.
Let's not worry so much about the little alleged
indelicacies and be natural and comfortable
nearly as We can. 1t is too hot to be picayunish.

Equality.

The rich man breathes the atmOs-
phere the same as you or |
He cannot see a deeper blue than we
do in the sky;
He hears the piping of the birds-a
music sweet and clear
But maybe mOney-clinking dulls the
music to his ear;
And yet he has some pleasures that
possess a tempting guise-
But he can t die any deader than the
poor man dies.
The rich man piles the money till he
gazes at the heap
And trembles lest 1t tOtter, till he
loses lots of sleep;
The poor man tolls in factory, in Of
flee and in ditch,
And worries over money till ~he's
sleepless like the rich;
The mOneyed man has pictures that
escape the poor mans eyes

To THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF
THE 9TH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT OF
FLORIDA:
would have been glad to have
had the opportunity of making a
personal canvass of each county and
to have attended your public gather
ings where | could have met the in
dividual voter and solicited his sup
port, but this | could not do without
neglecting my official duties, as the
courts have been continually in ses-
sion since the opening of the cam
paign until the last days Of June,
leaving me only two weeks in which
to canvass seven large counties.
| therefore have to solicit your sup
port through the medium of the
press. With the experience | have
gained | am better tittC d to discharge
the duties of the office than ever be-
fore, and Ger ainly much more so
than one who Lacks both the age ana
necessary experience.
| promise in the event of my Sc
lection to prosecute all cases rlgOr-
lusly that should be prosecuted and
With as little expense as is consistent
With the proper enforcement OF the
criminal laws.
For the past three years, since en-
irely recovering my health and dis
Iensing with clerks, who see fit to
clll themselves assistant state at
tIrneys," and taking entire charge OF
the Office myself, the percentage OF
convictions in tried cases has risen
thirty per cent; the number of con-
victions secured in the past two
years in cases disposed of by tho
courts other than by dismissal viii
reach eighty per cent; and it is
lct that under my administration o
the state attorneys office, more white
men have been convicted of unlawfu
homicide than was under those abl'
criminal lawyers, Judges Wigg ant

With restored health | promise t.
make even better record if by you

Very respectfully,
