FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1903.
LAST TUESDAYS ELECTIONS.

The elections held on Tuesda
must be most gratifying to Demo
Gratis everywhere. Of course, til
Democrats expect victory more i
"otf" years than at other tin es-th
reason, perhaps, is found in the tai
if question. In years of genera
elections, the benefciaries of th,
tariff system donate immense cam
paign funds, and these are used
successfully against the nominees
of the Democratic party.
In last Tuesdays election, the
greatest victory was the recapture
of Greater New York by the Demo-
caats, the &anmany nominee win
ming by 10000 plurality. This
shows change in the sentiment of
over hundred thousand voters, as
Low, the fusion candidate, carried
Greater New York the last time by
10000. Mcclellan, the Democratic
nominee, carried every borough ex.
cept Richmond.
The Democratic tickets were sue
cessful in New Yorh, Kentucky, |
Rhode Island and Mississippi.
The Republicans won in Ohio by
a greatly increased majority, thus
effectually shutting out the posi-
bility of Tom Johnson's candidacy
for the presidency next year. They
also won in Iowa and Colorado.
The elections failed to show any
great change in national opinion.
The victory in New York gives the
Democrats more hopes for 1904
but there is no reason to believe
that the great protected interests
will not fail to rally to the support 6

FLORIDA WEALTH.
Few states in the Union show
more marked evidence OF PROSPERITY
than Florida. This prosperity is
shown not only in tue increased |
population and the number of new
corporations and other enterprises,
but in the largely increased property |
valuation in practically every county |
in the state.
Comptroller Groom has received
the assessment rolls for the year
1903 from thirty out of the forty.
Tour counties. These returns speak
volumes for the prosperity of
Florida.
The thirty counties heard from
show a total valuation of $S3, 26l,.
598, which is an increacs of SIG, 1884,.
$50 over 1902. i
The prosperity in the counties
yet to report has been as great, pro.
oortionately, as those already heard
rom, and it is safe to say that the
increased valuation in the entire
tate. will be about $lO,OOO,OOO.-

POLITICAL SNAPSHOTS.
Martin L. Williams, Disgrace.

Martin L. Williams Disgrace.
: From the Tampa Tribune Oct
80: That's sad story of human
. ity's proneneess to err that come
! from Arcadia.
Martin L. Williams is fugitiv,
from justice. He has been visiteo
with the severest penalty that car
befall a lawyer-disbarment from
the practice of his profession in the
courts of his state-a penalty sc
severe that it is only imposed once
in a generation, and only upon the
positive proof of deep and unex-
cusable guilt.
Martin L. Williams enjoyed, for
a long time, the respect and the
trust of the people among whom he
lived. At times he wore the cloak
of the ministry and he was looked
upon as a moral exemplar. He
took the lead at the local bar. He
commanded respectful hearing,
whether exhorting congregation to
religious ends, addressing a jury in
behalf of a client, or discoursing
upon public questions at political
rallies.
By reason of his prominence, he
was made a Presidential elector in |
the last national election. Later,
he was made chairman OF the local
Board of School Trustees. At the
last municipal election in his town,
be was elected mayor by a large
These were marks of the
esteem in which he was held.
But the disclosures of the disbar-
nent proceedings and the cowardly
light which followed, stamp Martin
!. Williams as the worst type of
noral hypocrite. No man capable
+ committing the gross frauds {
roved against him the other day

uit Court, could have been honest

sgrity, Of sincerity. o
In the hope OF adding to his legal l
sputation by sna,ching from the
allows a cold.blooded assassin, il
Villains did not hesitate to falsify T
le records, forge the name of the IL
dge, and to damn his soul with
'rjury. He perhaps calculated !.

Brief News Notes
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

l
1 While this paper is going to press
| the Stetson football team will be en-.
gagged in a struggle on the gridiron
with a team from the University of
Florida. This is the second champions
,ship game played this season, the
other being between East and West
Florida Summaries, in which Gaines
vile won by score of Is to 0. The
StetsOn team is meeting worthy CD.
pOnents in this game, as the U. of F.
has good material and has been
trained by the old Stetson coach, Sc.
ton Fleming. Lake City probably has
some advantage in weight, but this
will be balanced by the superior speed
of Stetson.
No matter which team wins today,
1t is the duty of every Stetson student
to remember that it is our team, win
or lose, and that every man who does
his duty on the team is entitled to
praise, whether he makes a touch
down or is tackled for loss. The
knowledge that the support of the
whole school is behind them will often
cause the members of team to per-
form feats that would be beyond their
strength were it not for this backing.
If the team wins, turn out and give
them a warm welcome. If the team
loses, turn out and give them warm.
er welcome. Make them feel that
we know that they have done their
best-and that Is all that can be ex-
pected from anyone.
