d Gard From The Secretary.

To the Editor of the Ocala Banner.
In your issue of August 9th in an
article relating to the meeting of the
democratic executive committee you
state that "motion was made to adj
journ meeting Until August TO-" be-
cause ''there was not a quorum
present. This is an error, there
was no question of quorum. This
statement is misleading in that it ap-
pears the committee could not take
any action, when in fact the COM
mfttee could have taken action but
adjourned because it was thought
best not to do so with the small num-
Der present. The vote to adjourn
was carried six to five, which shows
that the committee was almost even
ly divided as to whether to postpone
action or to act. 1 trust the correc-
ton will be made in your next issue.
Respectfully.

MR. GREEN'S LETTER

1t goes without saying that the
more knowledge a man has the bet
ter he is equipped to occupy any
station in life. The better know
ledge he has of law the better citi-
zen and the better official he will
make, but it is not necessary for a
person to be a lawyer to have a
knowledge of the law.
Mr.. Blackstone, when he delivered
his famous lectures, on which nearly
all law is based, was a lawyer with
out practice and without experience.
We have not given the subject a
personal investigation but are told that
in Germany the members of its judi
ciary are judges before they are law
yers-it being held that a practice
along certain grooves units one for
holding the scales of justice with
perfect impartiality. And here we
have frequently heard it stated that
prosecuting attorney when elevat-
ed to the bench finds it very difficult
To restrain his bias for the state.
1t IS the settled policy of our gov
eminent, state and federal, that its
minor judicial officers, its law max
ers, its executive officers, its consuls
and its ministers abroad, are all to be
selected from the great body of the
people.
Law is based on common Justice
and common sense, and it is held by
the Judge of this circuit, and, indeed,
by our lawmakers, that a man pos
sessing these qualifications is COM
potent to hold the Office of Judge OF
the county court and we do not be-

Goodbye, Mr.. Horse.

Thos. A. Edison announces that he
has solved the great problem of build
ing a cheap and serviceable electric
vehicle in regard to which he says:
"In October 1 expect to have my
new light battery ready for all kinds
of automobiles and expect to lessen
the cost of operation about IS per
cent. less than horse drawn vehicles.
These batteries can drive a two ton
car. This invention is expected to
revolutionize the automobile business
at least as applied to heavy hauling
and probably work a revolution also
in passenger vehicles in cities--Jack-

Judge Parker held that a young
woman could not recover damages
from an advertising concern for using
her picture without her consent. We
do not remember the grounds on
which the judge based his decision;
perhaps it was because she cid not
carry it concealed behind veil and
she could not, therefore. help its be-
ing more or less a part of the COM
munity and to that extent not wholly
her own.
A young man in Georgia brought
suit against an insurance company
for using his picture without first OBJ
tanning his consent and the Georgia
court susJains the young mans con-
tention.

cannot own his own face ca says the

Will Mr.. Bell Accept the o6es7

will Mr. Bell Accept the omes7
To the Editor OF the OcaIa Banner:
Not having received the endorse
ment of the county democratic ex-
ecutive committee-"Win Mr.. Bell
accept the office?''-that's the ques-
ton now being asked by the members
OF that committee and other organic
ed democrats throughout the county.
The executive committee of a
party is like the rudder and machin-
cry to a ship-it gives it steadiness,
direction and propulsion and saves 1t
from going to wreck and disaster.
Without organization the party is
hopeless and helpless, it is compelled
to fall to pieces.
The executive committee of a party
has all the power of a convention and
stands in its stead.
Suppose that the executive COM
mittee of a party failed to call a
national convention or if it did call it
that its call were disregarded, what
show would it have Of ever electing
president to office or making any
sort of a figure in national affairs?
None whatever.
Suppose that demOcracts all over
the state had disregarded their pri-
mary obligations, where would Gov
ernor Broward be today?
If we expect party harmony, party
discipline, party organization and
finally party success, we must recog-
nize the executive committee as su-
preme and await its recommendations
and obey its mandates the same as
we do our primary obligations.
And this has been the unbroken
precedent of all the democratic gov
errors of Florida up to the time of
Governor jennings, and when that
official made an innovation, when he
set aside the action of the executive
committee, thus overriding party law
and party authority, it created a pro-
est that was heard from one end of
the state to the other, so much so,
indeed that it compelled the governor
to recede from his action.
That was the case with the appoint
ment of Capt. E. L. Carney, of this
county.
The governor for a long time re-
fused or held up his commission.
The democratic party of this county
came together as one man-his
friends and his foes alike-and insi st
ed upon the recommendation of the
executive committee being carried
out, and the pressure brought to bear
upon the governor was so potential

among his old supporters.
The governor has not only broken
party presidents but he has broken
faith with his friends!
If there be one thing more than
another that ought to stand forth re-
splendant in human nature it is that
which was exemplified by Damon for
Ply thias.
The fidelity of friendship should be
as pure as glittering gold, as sound
and answering as granite, and as true
and unyielding as the needle is to the
pole.
Whatever else a man may or may
not do, he should not go back on a
friend.
But it takes little incidents like
that of last Saturday to reveal the
inexplicable riddle so often manifest
that "man's best friend is often his
worst enemy"
Mr.. John T. Lewis and his friends
were Governor Broward's best friends
in this county in the gubernatorial
primary election. They worked for
him with a faith that was admirable,
if not heroic. At their own expense
they distributed his literature and
went from place to place singing his
praises and arousing enthusiasm for
him.
Mr.. Lewis was a candidate for the
Office of county Judge mad vacant
by the death of the lamented General
Bullock. He had letters and tele-
grams in his pocket from Governor
Broward and Mr.. Stockton and also
oral statements from friends who had
seen Governor BrOward in person
saying that the governor was anxious
to appoint him to the place and
would do so if he secured the endorse
ment of the democratic executive
committee, and that he would not
make an appointment until the COM
mittee made an endorsement.
Owing to the tremendously heavy
impossible for the full committee to
meet last Saturday, so an adjourn
ment was taken until next Thursday.
In the meanwhile, without hearing
from the committee, at least not Of
| ficially, Governor BrOward made his
appointment regardless of the action
of said committee, thus not only
breaking faith with his friends but
also breaking faith with his party.
He was and is still the the subject
of severe criticism and especially
| among those who warmly supported
him and enthusiastically sang his
praises in the last election.

Thomas w. Lawson, of frenzied fl
nance fame, doesn't seem to have
made much of an impression on the
Kansans whom he addressed recently.
The great majority of them failed to
get a clear idea of what he was talk
ing about. His advice to them to sell
all their railroad and industrial stocks
and bonds and put their money in
government, state and municipal
bonds, didn't appeal to them strongly
for the reason probably that they are
not overioaned with stocks and bonds
of any kind.
The editor of Kansas country pa
per explains the failure of Lawson to
gain much applause as follows:
1--WE people out here have had our
lesson. 1t came hard and it sank
deep. For a generation, no long
haired fanatic could tramp across the
state without leaving behind him a
confiagration of hot air and hum
ming of wagging whiskers. But the
emotions of our ear nerves have been
worn out They can talk to US now,
but they can't get our vote just be-
cause they have said few weird,
wild words"
MIR. Lawson was introduced by the
editor OF Everybody's Magazine. In
the course of his remarks he said:
when the American people need
ed father, God raised up Wash
ington; when the American people
needed an emancipation. God raised
W. Lincoln, and, in my Judgment, in
our present extremity, God has rails
ed up lawson"
District Attorney Jerome, of New
York, who addressed the Chautauqua
the day before Lawson did, differs
with this view of Lawson's mission.
He isquoted as saying that he thought
that God raised up Lawson to raise
up he'll. ''-Savannah News.
