Growth of the Papai Crown.

Originally the headdress Of the popes
was only cap, but Clovis, king of the
Franks, to show his respect to the
church of Rome, sent to the palace Of
st. John in Lateran royal crown OF
gold, which Anastasius emperor OF
Constantinople, had presented to him.
The Pope Hormisdas placed upon the
tiara this crown, which was at that
time nothing more than circle Of
gold surmounted by leaf work. being
much such coronet as is nowadays
borne by marquises In France. The
successor of Pope Hormisdas con-
tinued to wear the tiara with one
crown only up to the time of Boniface
WILL, but this pope, having claimed
authority over things temporal as well
as spiritual. wished to mark this dou-
BILE dominion on the pOntiacal tiara,
on which he placed two crowns in
stead of one. Ultimately Pope John
XXI. added a third crown. - st.

LEGATION, setting forth the value OF
California mines, oil wells, of COM
panies, fruit and grazing lands, or
what not. These papers are not
sent out by the editors with the
hope Of securing subscribers. They
are sent out by people who expect
to make money by the diffusion of
such matter-who hope to locate
settlers and investors and get per.

This is practically the only way
in which to secure immigration.

Florida needs is systematic, gener-
Gus, wide advertising. Our lands
are capable Of producing millions
where only hundreds are produced.
Our grazing lands, fruit and vegnta-
BILE lands, our phosphate and caolin
mines, our cassava starch and pine
apple industries should prove most
attractive to people who desire to
locate in a milder, more equable
climate than they now enjoy. The
State Board of Trade, proposed
some time ago, would be an admir-.
able plan by which to promote this
Advertising. Until such a concerted
plan is devised, we should work in
]ividually and in communities, and
thus accomplish in a measure the
results which have developed Cali

FRIDAY, OCTOBER %, 1908.

Floridians next year will have al
opportunity to cast their ballots, il
not for the next president, at least
for the Democratic nominee for the
presidency. Florida's delegates to
the national convention will be
voted for in direct primary
Hearst will have his candidates, and
all other candidates for the Demo-
cratic domination will be represent
ed on the official primary ballot.
When the Florida elector casts his
primary vote, he will vote for
Hearst or Parker, Cleveland or Cor
man delegates. The set of dele
gates receiving majority vote will
attend the National Democratic
Convention and cast their vote as
instructed by the sovereign people,
After the candidate for the presi-
dency is named, we will then all be
able to fall in line and vote for his
electors. This is probably as near
a "direct vote of the people" as will
ever be given for presidential
nominee.

To the People of Florida:
I am candidate for Governor in

I am opposed to trusts-trusts in

There is the same tendency in each
to crush individual effort and make
slaves of men.
/ am in favor of continuance OF

ing it fixity, if possible. 1t is q
bulwark between the corporations
and the people. Make it a tribunal
where the individual can have his
claim heard and adjusted without
cost to him.
I favor the primary system as the
best yet devised for getting the
will Of the people.
I am in favor OF liberal ap-
preparations for education as an in
vestment-the best that a family or
state can make.
I favor liberal appropriations for
unfortunate people.
I favor the equalization of taxes,
so that every interest may pay its
Just proportion of the burdens OF

I favor the present liquor laws,
which permit local option as to

have 80 generously patronzed the old
paper will give their aid and suppolt

The people of DeLand will have the
opportunity of seeing this season one
of the best games to be played in the
state. On Thanksgiving Day the
Stetson football team will meet a
team from the West Florida Semi
nary of Tallahassee at University
Park, and game is promised which
will be worth going miles to see. Ow-
ing to the great distance to Tallahas-
see, Stetson has never met this col
lege in any contest, but it has been
d cided to take the risk, trusting that
the game will arouse sufficient inter
est to meet expenses. Other games
are being arranged as quickly as pos.
sible, but it is not certain when and
where the first game will be played.
A proposition has been made to
Tampa for a game next Saturday, but
nothing definite has been heard yet.
Practice is going on daily, and those
in charge of the team are very much
pleased at the rapid progress made by
the men. The second team has or
gained with Jack Sans as captain
and all men making the second team
will be given SIS with figure 2 below
them to distinguish them from those
given to the first team.

elected temporary chairman and MIR.
Calhoun temporary secretary. A con.
stitution was adopted after several
amendments and a recess taken to
sign it. The election of officers then
took place and the following persons
we're chosen: Emmett Wilson, presi.
dent; Miss Remmers, vice-president;
Mr.. Calhoun, secretary.

The report that Soefalistic club has
been formed at Washburn college met
with prompt denial. The haste with
which the college authorities are said
to have smothered the charge, on the
supposition that it would injure the rep
utation of the school, is almost anus
ing Why not have a Socialist club?
There are German clubs, dramatic
clubs. athletic and literary clubs.
The college authorities certainly are
aware that socialism in itself is not
properly to be regarded as immoral or
unpatriotic- The men who proposed
socialism had the hope of the better
ment of mankind at heart. Their ideas
may have been impractical; it is said
that they are. But the theory of the
thing has been found to be very attrac-
i've to many people in all parts of the
world and a glance at the political af-
fairs of this country shows readily the
widening of the influence of the Social
istic propaganda in America.
1t is to be deplored, if it is really true,
that the Washburn college authorities
have done anything to discourage the
examination of the doctrine of socialism
by the college students. If, in seeking
the light, four or five boys have banded
together to study socialism. what is Ehe
objection? 1t will enable them to con-
slider the proposition more clearly with
their united intelligences- To prohibit
them from doing so within the confines
of the college campus would seem sim
ply a bowling to the hue and cry of
prejudice which links the names of
socialism and anarchy, really as far
apart as theocracy and agnosticism.
The principal object of a college
course is to encourage and develop the
habit of thought. If a student prefers
to join a club with the purpose of doing
a little thinking and talking outside the
college curriculum, so much the better
for him, even if the subject does hap
pen to be so unpopular a thing as
socialism. BY and by he will have
thought the whole thing out to his own
satisfaction. One of the results will be
that he will be considerably broader
minded than if he had never considered
the subject or had rejected it without
considering it deeply. A college en-
courages q student to think seriously
upon almost every other department of
investigation; many colleges devote a
special course to this subject itself. To
discourage a club for independent re-
search in it would appear to insinuate
a distrust of the students ability to
think properly, and an unwillingness to
let him think otherwise. The boy of
twenty who does not at times draw in
correct conclusions from his processes
of thinking is not, to speak conserva-
lively, the general rule. But, to borrow
the language of the poet, tits better to
have thought in vain that never to have
thought at ALL

cost the city of Topeka, in good hard
cash, the sum of $4,000 This $4,000 has
been expended during the months of
July, August, September and October,
and now the work is done. 1t was one
of the most gigantic undertakings
which ever confronted a commissioner
of public streets. and J. f Snyder, the
Topeka man who faced this task and
conquered it. deserves credit for his eff
fective and economical work.
If Leavenworth spends $4,000 per
month on its street department, the
chances are that it is being robbed.
Two or three times as much work is
done in Topeka for the same money, be-
cause Topeka is twice as large, probably
