the first time will march to the polls
and do 1T again.
The election of S. J. Kennerly as
county treasurer by such an over
whelming majority has been some
thing of surprise even to that gem
tleman and his closest friends. They
looked for his election by Il big
majority, but being shrewd people,
they were quite willing to overesti-
mate, rather than underrate the
strength of the opposition.
There was no election for county
commissioners in Districts and 8.
The table below gives the vote of
each candidate from U. S. Senator
to School Commissioner, by pre-
cincts. 1t is worth preserving and
will furnish material for several
hours study.

There was not much excitement
in Palatka during the election of
Tuesday. Citizens went to the polls
and saved their country after the
manner in which they had already
made up their minds.
The above list of nomination is
the result of the citizens work. 1t
shows the utter defeat of the dispen-
sary measure in Putnam county.
TO be sure Mr.. Wall has two more
votes than Mr.. Chesser, but it must
be remembered that the anti-dispen-
sary vote was divided between Mr..
Chesser and Mr.. Wylie.
There will now be second pri-
mary as provided by the state law,
and this will occur on Tuesday, Au-
gust 18th.
In this second primary Mr.. Wylie
and DIR. McRea will be eliminated
and the race will narrow to choice
between J. p. Wall who represents
the dispensary, and James M.
Chesser, who opposes it. 1t will be
a clean fight without the Interference
of other issues.
On the result of the second pri-
mary will depend the choice of the
second representative in the legisla
ture from Putnam county.
The News predicts that such
choice will be James M. Chesser by
an overwhelming majority. 1t
makes this prediction upon the
strength of opinions from voters in
all parts of the county who have
been in the city this week looking at
the returns. Many of them are men
of influence.
The Sprague vote will go to
Chesser. So will the Wvlie vote,
and those who voted for Chesser

POST ELECTION GOSSIP.

POST ELECTION GOSSIP.
Probably the most surprising vic
tory brought to the attention of local
voters is that of Neil M. Alfred, can
didate for States Attorney. Mr.. ALL
red has carried every county in the
Fifth Judicial Circuit. Even Alach-
ua, conceded a Garter stronghold,
las given Alfred a handsome MAORI
ty. Mr.. Alfred had made a clean,
honest and swift canvass, and had
gone home satisfied that he would
win, but he never had any idea that
his victory would be so complete.
The people of Putnam county took
to the young man kindly from the
first, and as the days went by his
strength increased. He will make Il
popular and efficient court official,
and will carry out his every pledge
to the people. He is built that way.
Mr.. Rogers of Putnam Hall, can
didate for county commissioner from
the 9TH district made a thorough
canvass of the county, and he made
nothing but friends. His election
was generally expected.
DR.. Frank McRea was handicapped
from the first. Voters want a can
didate to stand pat. They fight shy
of one who seeks to trim. The doctor
never was at heart a dispensary
man. But he voted for the measure,
and his name is attached to circu-
lar pledging his support to the dis
pensary. In his public talks he re-
ceded from that position, and the
impression got out that he wasn't
quite sure "where he was at. -" Had
he come out manfully, acknowledge
ed his mistake and repudiated that
circular, he would have been elected.
The people like the man. He is one
of them. In voting against him they
simply disapproved his want of de
cisiOn.

grave and jumped into it, He never
wavered in his allegiance to the dis
pensary. 1t gave promise of being
too good a thing politically. His
mistake was made when he decided
for the dispensary without consult
ing the people He has hundreds Of
friends in the county who regret that
he loaned his influence to such an
ubiquitous measure.
Mr.. Wylie was choked off by the
campaign of the hog men. They
have undoubtedly done him an in
justice, but Mr.. WylIe will continue
to run good nursery, make money
for himself, and do his part in build
ing up Putnam county. H has lost
none of his self-respect, and hum
dreds of men in the county are his
honest admirers.

Secret of the Academic Franchise.

In connection with the reception of
NJ. de Vogne by the French Academy,
it is noted that the new academician
made his opening address facing to-
ward the southwest pillar of the hall.
SO has every new academician since
lS19-since, in fact, the admission of
the Able Maury who, feeble in voice
and fearing a faseo for his reception
speech, went to the hall some days in
advance to test his voice. Turning
slowly round as he spoke he noticed
clear echo as he faced the southwest
pillar. Several tests confirmed the
result and Maury went away happy.
His reception was a brilliant success
He afterwsrd gave his secret away,
and no academcian has ever been
known to ignore it.-London Globe.

MARY A. LIVERMORE.
Hale, Hearty, Eloquent and Active
at Eighty-Two.
Famous Advocate of Temperance and
Woman Suffrage Is "a Truly Re-
markabIe Woman in Every
Respect.

On the 10Th of December, IN the year
1920, there was born in the city OF Bos-
ton a child who was destined 10 be-
come one Of the most useful and hon
0red of American women. That chlId
was Mary Vose, who afterward became
Mary \. Livermore. Her father was
a Baptist minister and she has many
years of Baptist ancestry behind her.
From the days of her young woman
hood Mrs. Livermore has always been
identified with the things that count
for most in life. She has ever been
ready to lend a hand to any cause that
would make the world better. Our
country has never had more devoted
nor more powerful advocate OF tenn
perance, and she was for ten years the
president of the Massachusetts ". c.
Z. L. She worked hand in hand with
Frances Willard, and, in her eighty
second year. she is still speaking and
working for the cause that lies near
est her heart. The writer has knOwl-
edge of Mrs. LiyermOre going 20 miles
one night in December without COM
pensation TO address an audience Oh
the SUBJECT of temperance. She stood
side by side with Wendell Phillips and
William Lloyd Garrison in the days
when il cost something TO be an anti
slavery man or woman. When the
great civil war came on Mrs. Liver
more was one of the most active work
ers in the United States sanitary com
mission, and she rendered her coun-
try great service in the days when it
stood in sore need Of the help Of every
loyal and devoted woman.
Mrs. LivermOre was most active in
the Washington temperance move
ment, and she has for many years
