DUTY OF THE NEWSPAPER.

The New York Journal, which has
been sued for large sum claimed as
damages by a former municipal official
whose public acts were denounced by
that newspaper, recently contained an
excellent editorial which sets forth in
temperate and almost judicial terms the
duty which the honest newspaper owes
to the public Here are some extracts,
which we commend TO the thoughtful
perusal Of all public officers
There is nothing more important in
the United States today than a careful
supervision of public officials by the
newspapers, which alone stand between
the nation and absolute corruption. If
any man is libelled by a newspaper he
should protest, and full satisfaction
should be given to him. But no news
paper worthy of the name would be de-
TERED by libel suits, civil or criminal,
from doing its duty, representing hon
estly and vigorously the great public,
which is the newspapers client. The
real newspaper is not mere retailer
of news, TO be sold as merchandise.
The newspaper is the lawyer Of the
public And IL owes TO the public the
same devotion, the same combative
spirit, the same determination to secure
rights, as the conscientious lawyer owes
TO his individual client.
And they can be protected only by
giving the fullest publicity to the acts
of their officials, enabling the public to
decide for itself whether IL is being
protected and represented in Office as It
should be. With no possibility of re-
calling or putting out Of Office a care
less or otherwise unfit official save
through roundabout and politically ham
pered impeachment, the newspaper
alone stands between the people and
those whom they put in Office. From
the date Of an officials election until
his term ends there Is no control over
him save that exercised by an honest
press fortified by the approval Of the
reading public.
Commenting on this topic, the Miami

FEDERAL QUARANTINE CONTROL.

The accusation against the New Or
leans authorities, that they concealed
the existence of yellow fever in that
city for several weeks, brings to the
front the once mooted question Of fed
eral control over quarantine and health
matters. Florida transferred the con-
troll Of it's quarantine stations to the
general government some years ago,
and thus far no complaint of the result
has been heard The appearance of the
yellow plague in New Orleans lead the
Birmingham Age-Herald to make the
following timely comments, and it is to
be hoped that the sequel may be uni
form and national administration of
sanitary regulations along the entire
coast:
The remedy consists in placing the
quarantine stations under federal con-
troll This has been done all along the
South Atlantic coast-in North Caro-
lima, Georgia and Florida For COM
mercial reasons Alabama, Louisiana
and Texas have refused to do away
with state or municipal control.
If federal management of the quar-
antne stations on the gulf coast were
conceded, there would be do more yell
low fever in this country. A case or
two might creep in, but all physicians
now know how to handle the sporadic
case. 1t is necessary to keep off by
netting the mosquito, which alone can
transmit the germs Of disease. But
while commercial quarantine lasts
forty blocks become infected before con-
fesslon is made of the presence in this
country of the fever. The choice is be-
tween federal guarantees and New
Orleans should not hesitate to adopt the
former. The safety and prosperity of
the southern country, and therefore of
New Orleaus, demands federal super
vision of gulf coast quarantine stations.

WE KNOW THEN.

Editor Carroll Of the Monticello News
has been having fun with certain YER
min which infest newspaper Offices, and
gives them several chunks Of unbiased
opinion, fresh from the Rriddle, as fol-
lows:
Every now and then some misguided
chump, with skull corridors echoing
with Vastly emptiness, or congested with
fungOus growth where gray matter
should be, comes in and informs US that
he doesn't like to read about people go
ing TO parties or going away on the
cars. Then, again, comes another pur-
pie idiot, whose special aversion is our
county letters telling about "socials,
"sings," etc. Then, perchance, enters
one pulled up as 10 his chest with
purpose 10 tell US how to run a country
newspaper, and objects TO local ads"
in and among our reading matter. To
these yariegated and picturesque cous-
ms Of ignorance we offer the following
advice. Buy country newspaper and
run il To suit yourself and read it all by
yourself; but don't poster US with re-
monstrances or advice. We would
rather you'd pay up your arrears and
quit.

TWO GOOD HEN GONE.

We had in last weeks issue a brief
announcement of the death of General
Robert Bullock and Angus Paterson,
two of Florida's oldest and most dis
tinguished citizens. Their prominence
demands more extended notice.
General Robert Bullock, who died at
his home in Ocala, July 9th, was born
in North Carolina December Sth., 1898,
and was therefore in his nth year. He
came to Florida when youth of 16, be-
ginning life as teacher, and about the
time of attaining his majority he was
chosen clerk of the circuit court in
Marion county, which position he filled
for six years. He was then commis-
stoned, in 1856, to organize a company
of mounted volunteers for service
against hostile Indians. and served az
its captain for about eighteen months.
On returning to his home he studied
law and was admitted to the bar in
1861. After year Of practice he en-
tered the Confederate service as a can
tam in the 7th Florida regiment and
served with valOr and distinction
throughout the struggle, attaining the

"PULL" VERSUS GRAFT"

The Miami Metropolis, one of the
ablest edited newspapers in the State,
thinks that distinction should be de
fined between Graft and "Pull'. 1t
proceeds to draw the line thus:
The body polite suffers just about as
much from ,",Pull' as it does from
graft. "Pull'' has saved many a
scoundrel from just punishment.
Pull" has PIT many incompetent men
in office, and kept other men there long
after they have passed their days of
Graft" is a curse, but
pull" is it's twin evil. What isneeded
in this great country-in city, county,
State and Nation-ls a recrudescence
Of ld-fashioned common honesty,
mixed with a good bit of real patriot
ism.
To reduce the subject to corollary-
The fellow who is trying to get into Of
fee uses "pull"; after he gets in, he
operates graft" Is that it,?

A CURE FOR CORRUPTION.

Speaking in an interview, Of the
prevailing prevalence" of all manner
of graft and corruption, the renowned
Cardinal Gibbons recently said
Corruption has always existed
am much afraid it will exist as long as
human nature yields TO the attributes
that lead to temptation.
"The bright spot Is the fact that the
degradation is made known Corrupt
ion can not exist nowadays without be-
ing discovered after while. The
greater the evil the greater the posi-
bility Of remedy. And the possibility
Of remedy has now become such an as
sured fact that it counterbalances al
most, the evil which the present condi-
ton Of money madness creates.
The fear, the dread of exposure is
the counterbalancing element, and that
fear. that dread, that horror Of having
name once respected dragged down is
due to the efforts of the metropolitan
press
ut may not be good theology, il may
not be good ethics, but II is certainly
very good common sense and a very
good moral element that the fear, the
dread OF exposure in the public press
keeps many a man sticking close TO the
path Of rectitude who otherwise would
The weekly true Democrat. (Tallahassee, Fla.) 1905-1912, 1905-08-04

stray off into the byways of personal
graft.
There is nothing" the cardinal con-
tinued, (which a man prizes more than
his reputation, and the only way TO eff
fectually upset a mans reputation is TO
expose him in the public press. The
power Of the press is incalculable.
Sometimes it happens that the defect
is shown in an exaggerated form, but
as a rule the public expOsOrs of public
men are public benefactOrs.
THE great troublemaker in this
country is money. Americans are not
misers, thank God. Otherwise we
would be in a most deplorable condi-
ton. When great fortunes are made
they are almost as rapidly expended
and the constant circulation of money
the keeping going of these accumuls-
lions Of wealth is one Of the hopeful
signs of the future.
"In the United States it is not the
love of the money, it is the money it
self that is the root Of all evil. The
fact Of possessing money and having
the opportunity TO spend it brings with
it untold inclinations toward vice and
immoral and unlawful extravaganza. "

For FlOrida's Daughters.
om DE Sd. Augustlne Record:

From the st. Augustine Record:
The young women of Florida are Just
now having their attention drawn to
the fact that there has been established
at Tallahassee, by the provisions of the
Buchanan bill, a splendid educational in
stitution called the Florida Female Col
lege.
This school was formerly called the
Florida State College. While always
recognized as one of the best schools in
the State, it nevertheless was some
what overshadowed by the many other
State educational institutions and did
not command that attention of which
it was so worthy.
Under the new order of things con-
ditions are and will be quite different.
the great State University for males to
be established at Gainesville, is to have
the very best faculty procurable.
Every effort is to be made to equip the
school thoroughly and to make it the
best ladies' college in the South.
In view Of these facts, the fair
daughters of fair Florida have much to
rejoice over. Without any fee for tu-
ition except in few special braches of
study, and with nominal charge for
board, there is every inducement for
young ladies' to continue their studies
in the higher branches, not being con-
tent with simply high school course.
At the present time the advantages
and scope of this excellent institution
are being made known to the people
personally by Mr.. Fred w. Kettle, who
as secretary to President Murphree, is
on tour of the State. Although he
has hardly made a start, his work has
brought splendid results, as not a few
parents have decided to send their
daughters to Tallahassee.

WHATS the nATTER7"

Under the above caption the Live Oak
Crescent utters a vigorous protest con-
corning the increased tax rate. While
fully approving all necessary taxation
for the benefit of the old Confederate
We Grams in the shape Of pensions, Ed
itor jeff l.. Davis declares that there
is money in the treasury; our bonded
Indebtedness is growing smaller, while
our resources are growing larger" and
he sees no reason why there should be
an increase in the tax rate. And he
asks: lis there graft"
We answer: There has been-lots of
it. Some that is known and much more
tina, is only suspected, or, as yet, in
capable Of proof And the increase in
the tax rate can easily be traced to the
extraordinary financial methods of the
Jennings administration.
TIE Crescent says
Are our States finances being ma
neuyered that a few may grow rich at
the expense of the many? We hear
that an official (of a private nature)
went to Tallahassee four years ago pen
niless, and to-day is worth $50, 600, on a
salary Of 81, 800 year. How did he
get it? Where is the peoples money?
Why are taxes higher?
We are quite satisfied of the exist
ence, during the Jennings gubernato-
rial term, Of many instances of rank
crOOkedness. We have already taken
occasion to discuss some of them We
believe many others await disclosure
and public condemnation. We are I'M
able to answer the Crescent's very
pointed and personal inquiries, but
there are those who can make full and
complete answers thereto. Perhaps
they will do 80.
The editor Of the Crescent promises
that his paper will be "a live wire" in
local and State affairs, and we heartily
welcome it to the excellent company of
those journals which are not afraid to
tell the truth, regardless of who is
hurt.
