viii Go Fishing in June.
Word comes from the wilds or West
Florida of a notable party that will
sometime next June hunt a sequeste err
ed nook on the banks of the pellucid
Chipola river for the sake of the out
ing and the fishing, which is said TO
be especially fine there. The party is
to be made up Of Judge C. B. Parkhill,
OF Pensacola, j. Walter Kehoe, prose
cutting attorney for that judicial cir
cult, Frank l.. Mayes, of The Pensaco-
Ia Journal, and Hayes Lewis, the long
lean Sheriff of Jackson county. A well
known Jacksonville newspaper man
has been invited to joip the party, but
as he expects to be struggling with a
long "pome" on the legislature in the
Eeleafy month of June" the last named
will probably continue to do his fishing
'in his mind" as he has been doing
1t for, 10, these many years. The only
objection TO that sort OF fishing Is that
suggested by poor Joe Otis famous
gag about the man who was worth
500 600 in his mind"-if you lose your
mind you catch no fish. Such a trip
would certainly be one long to be re-
membered by any man who appreciates
the congenial companionship of friends
as true and tried as are some OF those
entioned.-Jacksonvil Times-Union.

A "Butter IN"
Our esteemed contemporary, the
Pensacola News, accuses Us of having
''butted in" by commenting on the
white primary" held in that city a
few days ago Among other things il
says If we knew local conditions IS
they really are there, we would not
say the primary nominees should be
elected. We, of course, are not fami-
liar with the politics of the Deep Wa
ter City, but one thing we do know.
and that is that the white people Of
any community are or should be cap
bale OF eiecting their officers-better
officers, too, than the .-rif-raff' could
name 1t may be different in Pensa-
cola, as the latter class there might
be better capacitated. but-well, we
hope not at any rate.-Marianna Times
