Stetson ColleSes.

The people of Florida have shown
their appreciation of the fine work
that is done at Stetson University,
and now the University in return,
proposes to do for the people of Flori-
da what no other institution with
two exceptions, in the South, is try
| ing to do. Those exceptions are in
other Southern States, and are we'll
known. The thing that Stetson
University proposes to do is this:
Furnish the people of Florida with
the best there is in education, no
matter what it costs. 1t cannot fur
nish as many things as a University
twice its size, and of much greater
age, but what it does furnish shall
be of the best
The standards of the College Of
Liberal Arts are the highest in the
south. We challenge comparison on
that point 1t is not an idle boast
with us. The standard is identical
with that of the College of Liberal
Arts of the University of Chicago.
Precisely the same admission cred
its are demanded as Chicago de-
mands. Precisely the same rules
are enforced with regard to credits.

IAN EDITORIAL THUG"

That is what Hon. Eugene S.
Matthews, Speaker of the House of
Representatives and editor of the
Starke Telegraph, calls Editor
Claude L'Engle of the Tallahassee
Sun-and then proceeds to prove his
assertion, which he does conclusive
ly and in manner at once "chaste
and beautiful"
Readers of the News will remem-
Der an editorial from the Stark
Telegraph which we published two
weeks ago. In it Editor Matthews
asked some pointed question of
L'Engle concerning his sudden
change of heart from certain men
and measures whom he supported
three years ago, and whom be is now
lambasting with his Tallahassee
Sua-his along with the state print
ing contract as a reward for acting
as sycophant-in-chief to the ad-
ministration.
Newspaper editors of the state who
have refused to bend the knee to po-
litical mountebanks of the jennings
Browardstripe, according to L'Engle.
are in the "subsdized" class. He
alone is the one pure-minded re-
former, who, in the first flush of his
shady political triumph feels entitled
to decide who of US are the sheep and
who the goats, and, placing himself
at the head of the sheep, proceeds
to make moral faces at the goats.
Mr.. Matthews, after showing
L'Engle's inconsistencies and sordid
motives proceeds to rake him thus:
After all he L'Engle) had said on
the subject of subsidized newspapers
we naturally expected to hear from
him story of "infiuencev that
would turn the state topsy-turvv and
the editor of the Telegraph had al
ready mapped out a plan for resolv-
ing himself into publication socie-
ty rampant. But 10 and behold.
Claude has knocked our anticipa-
tions into a cooked hat.
TO our questions he replies that he
received no such money. He mod
estly owns up to having contributed
more brains and more labor TO the
support of the conservative candi-
dates than all the rest of the papers
combined, but AYERS that he was not
corrupted or procured BY them or
their friends, but supported them be- |
cause he "hOnestly believed they |
were the best men Offering for the |
offices. " Now, there has been no |
change in these men since L'Englp |
gave them his ardent support and .
honestly believed that they were
the best men offering for the Offices"
except that they have, no doubt.
grown wiser and better. At every
turn, at least, they have shown
themselves faithful and efficient SER
wants of the people.
The change is in L'Engle. He has
suffered himself to become an edi-
torlal thug, ready to sand-bag any
body who does not see fit to sneeZe
every time the officials who have the
giving of the state printing contract
take snuff. His acknowledgement 4
that he did purely from good mo-
lives what he now charges that other

The parish church of Ross, in Here
fordshire, is remarkable for two fine
elms which grow beside the pew for
merly occupied by the famous John
Kyrle, the Man of Ross" Trees
were scarce around Ross in his time,
and tree planting became part Of his
philanthropy. The story goes that a
ruthless rector of Ross cut down some
trees Kyrle had planted near the
church, whereupon these two elms
forthwith sprang up by way Of pro-
test. Several other country churches
have trees growing inside. In the
chancel at Kempsey, near Worcester,
has been preserved horse chestnut
that springs from the beautiful tomb
of Sir Edmund Wylde. An irate peda-
gogue threw a chestnut, with which
he caught one of his school children
playing during service upon the tomb,
where it took root and has fourished.

What splendid type of tireless activity is
the sun as the psalmst describes it issuing like
"a bridegroom from his chamber and rejoicing
like strong man to run a race" Every man
ought to rise in the morning refreshed by
slumber and renewed by rest eager for the
struggle of the day. But how rarely this is so.
Most people rise still unrefreshed, and dreading
the strain of the days labors. The cause Of
this is deficient vitality and behind this lies a
deficient supply of pure, rich blood, and an in
adequate nourishment of the body. There is
nothing that will give a man strength and
energy, as will DR.. Plerce's Golden Medical
Discovery. 1t does this by increasing the
quantity and quality of the blood supply.
This nourishes the nerves, feeds the brain,
builds up enfeebled organs, and gives that sense
OF strength and power which makes the strug-
gle of life joy. The ''good feeling which
follows the use of 'Golden Medical Discovery
is not due to stimulation as it contains no al
cohol. The ingredients are plainly stated on

Seattle Authorities Take Steps t

SEATTLE. Oct. 24.-Mayor Moore
formally requested Governor Mead to
request the surgeon general of the

vice to take charge of the prophylactic
measures that may be necessary to
stamp out bubonic plague in Seattle
and Governor Mead Immediately wired
the department at Washington.
The city council has prepared an or
dinance providing for a bounty on
rats and the board Of health divided
the city into sanitary districts for the
so for the purpose of cleaning up the
city. The Chinese and Japanese col
Onies, through their leaders of each, has
volunteered it's cooperation with the
mination.
There has been but one death from
the plague in Seattle and there are no
cases under suspicion at present. The
E. E. White, of the public health and
marine hospital service, stationed
here, is already practically in charge
of the work. Rat guards are being in
stalled on the haWsers of every vessel
in port and the city ordinance for the
determination of rats is being en-
forced. City. county and state health
bodies are working together and citi-

While it is a diSappOint melt to
