GAINESVILLE Schools.

The Gainesville schools are in excel
lent condition. The superintendent and
faculties are Of the best material to be
had, and they deserve encouragement.
The city authorities should do all that in
them lies to remove every stumbling
block that may now or hereafter be IN
the way Of the students who are in school
here. Their mental, physical and moral
interests should be guarded with jealous
care by opr people among whom their
parents have sent them.

GAINESVILLE, Fla, Jan. III, 1904
EDITOR STAR: In a recent issue Of
the Star I saw a letter and your com.
ments on the Pool Room" which |
think are very timely, for 1t seems that
what is everybody's business Is nobody's
business, aud am really glad that some
one has spoken on the subject, as | had
been thinking about it myself for some
time.
Think 1t is one Of the worst games a
young man can learn to play, for In so
many places we find pool tables in bar.
rooms only, and some young men for
whom pool has fascination will 20 IN
bar-room for no other reason than 10
play pool, and are tempted to drink or
get into other trouble, and are often
ruined simply because they learned to
play a social game of pool.
| think it is the duty of every good
citizen to use his influence against every
public as we'll as private evil. The child
OF today is to be the father of the coming
man and the children Of today the pa
rents of the future generations, aud what
is to become Of the world If things are
allowed to go on at the present rate. OF
course we do not expect to revolutionize
the world, but every one should use his
or her influence orgood. Parents should
make home more attractive and induce
the boys to stay more at home. and great
good would be the outcome.
Very respectfully,

GAINESVILLE REPUBLICANS.
Hons, Robinson, Chubb and cushmnn
are Highly flonored.

AT The recent Republican convention at
ST. Augustine, three prominent Gaines.
vile Republicans were highly honort d
as will be seen by the following:
Hon Walter G. Robinson, chairman OF
the Republican Congressional Committee
OF the Second district was not only re.
elected for third term but was also
elected as delegate to the National Con-
vention.
Hon. Henry S Chubb, chairman OF
the State Central Committee, who has
already served two terms in a very &C.
ceptable manner, was reelected for a
third term.
Hon. A. M, Cushman, a prominent
citizen Of Gainesville for many years and
a prominent Mason, received the nom.
ination as presidential eleetor.
Messrs, Robinson and Chubb are two
OF the most prominent Republicans in
the State. They would make splendid
Democrats If they could be prevailed
upon to see the error of their way aud
get right" but even as Republicans
their popularity with the administration
aud their devotion TO Gainesville's inter-
ests, make them valuable and desirable
citizens. Mr.. cushman has never fig.
ired as prominently in politics as have
Messrs. Robinson aud Chubb, but he has
long head and an eye to business, and
will be able to cast with perfect ease and
Lightly the vote Of this electoral dis.
'riet for the Republican candidate for
President in the unlock ed-for event such
IN act on his part should become neces.
'iry, as a result of Republican victory
n the Second district.
