STE WhRT To
be CANDIDATE
Asserted That the Volusia
Judge Will Strive for
Higher Position.

The Palatka News says that it is
able to state on apparently reliable
authority, that Judge Isaac A. Stew
art, of the Volusia county criminal
court will shortly announce his can
didacy for the office of governor of
Florida"
Rumors of Judge Stewards intend
ed candidacy reached Palatka some
two weeks ago. 1t is known that he
is being urged to make the race by a
large number OF the prominent citi-
zens of Volusia county and that the
pressure being brought to bear on
him is not confined TO any one of
the factions that are fighting for SUI
premacy in that county. 1t is I'M
derstood that all are prepared to
unite with Judge Stewart as a leader.
Coming from Jacksonville the other
evening the editor of the News had
the pleasure of the company of the
Hon. James T. Alexander. MIR. Alex
ander said:
Judge Stewart will probably be a
candidate and he Will sweep the state.
He is a very popular man and would
make an ideal governor He has
been making a quiet canvas and has
convinced himself that his chances
are most excellent. We want Judge
Stewart to run on his Jail record.
Seems funny, don't it. But do you
remember that some years ago Con-
gresham Houk of Tennessee got
drunk while in Washington and was
run in His enemies at home print
ed a cartoon of him looking through
the bars Of the Jail. Houk took this
as a cue in the next canvas. He had
a calaboose made with grated win
dows which he loaded on his wagon,
and which he got inside OF and drove
over the district making speeches.
His majority was increased from 2
600 to 10000.
Stewart has also had a short Jail
record You will remember that as
attorney for the Stetson's he secured
the celebrated Dr. Weightnovel let
ters When called upon by the court
in Tampa to tell how he obtained the
letters, Stewart refused and was
placed in Jail for contempt. His
friends and managers have gone all
over this jail experience with him
and we believe that if the case is
properly placed before the people it
will win hum 10000 votes. I tell you
its great The people want some
thing spectacular They want a man

did get in Jail for it.

RASCALITY OF
THE STEEL TRUST

Mr.. Hartman, disregaTding ethics
for the moment, Is very good rail-
roader. For his mastery of his bust
ness he deserves respect. Lately ne
delivered to the United States Steel
Corporation q sew eSScelding because
they were selling HIM bad rails for
his roads He cited the intolerabiy
large number which had brcSen,
after only a few weeks use, and
pointed out that. for 80 many railroad
accidents as are due 90 this cause,
the Steel Corporation is responsible.
And as Mr.. Hartman is not the man
to let things stop with mere talk, he
ordered his rails for the coming year

To this fervid scolding by Mr..
Hartman add now thoughtful ut
terance from another railroad man

Read, now, the depotism of Mr.

Hartman knows railroads. Mr.
Schwab may feel a little hurt to have
his words used in this connection; he
wasn't writing about the tariff then;
he was giving an expert opinion which
was TO be used for inducing certain
men of wealth to buy the Carnegie
Steel Company (now a constituent

Beauty and the Feet.

According to a writer in the cur
rent number of Smiths Magazine, the
care of the feet has great deal more
to do with a woman's personal ap-
pearance than we generally imagine.
The feet" she writes, exert a
much more important influence upon
a womans appearance than even she
is aware. If woman is awkward. it
is, nine times out Of ten. because her
feet are i'll at ease. If she walks
badly il is because her heels are
either too high or too low. If she
sits wrong, it is more than likely that
the fault can be tracked right down
to her feet.
There are those who claim that
wrinkles come from feet that ache;
and il is very likely that they do.
The nerves of the feet and of the
face are very closely allied, and,
when the feet begin to be painful.
there is very quickly drawn look

for two hundred. The poor women of
the city, who are compelled to work
for livelihood. to support themselves
and a number of children, will be at
forded a day of rest and recreation,

HOW THE CHIN
SHOWS CHARACTER
} . AA~ . . = %%

In reading character, physiognom-
lists divide the chin into five separate
classes, as follows: The pointed or
narrow, round chin; the ipdented
chin; the narrow square chin; the
broad, square chin, and the broad,
round chin.
The pointed or narrow chin sign1-
fies a nature not easily satisfied, and
longing for an ideal. Many spinsters
have this chin.
The indented chin must not be con-
founded with the dimpled chin.
Women with the indented chin have
tremendous desire for affection. They
are miserable unless man is in
love with them.
The narrow, square chin also signi-
fies strong love nature.
The woman with this chin will
marry a poor man if she loves him,
although she may have suitOrs of
boUndless wealth and of far higher
social position.
The broad square chin shows ire
mendous strength of feeling. The
woman with this chin is capable of
the most devoted love She is some
times jealous Her love nature is so
strong that if she is betrayed she may
even go mad.
The broad. round chin also accom-
panfes a capacity for ardent love and
for great steadfastness. The broad
chinned woman is faithful

CUBA'S GOVERNOR WANTS
WCE-PRESIDENT'S PLACE.
Grain Trust Head, Mad at Roosevelt, Is
Trying to Get Nebraska to

who thought they had Nebraska nailed
down for Taft are wondering how it all
happened. Two weeks ago the Taft men

ment," as though Taft owned the deiega-
ton. But today Senator Burkett is doing
his best to swing Nebraska over to
Hughes. Frank Harrison. leading reformer,
is pulling his level best best for La Fol-
lette, and Governor Magoon, of Cuba, a
native Nebraskan, has silently entered the
contest for his home delegation.
And even thai Endorsement of Taft is
not a real Endorsement. The resolution,
which has been heralded as pledging the
State TO Taft, in fact, begins with: while
not presuming to ~forestall the action Of
any future convention, we express the be-
lief that the Republicans of Nebraska
recognize in the Hon. w. H. Taft" etc.
The Hughes boom in Nebraska is in The
hands Of George Tobey. former private
secretary to Senator Burkett, who re-
signed and came to Nebraska to work for
the New Yorker. Incidentally, Burkett
has announced that he wants to be the
tail of the ticket of which Hughes is
the head, and Burkett will throw the
power of the machine which made him
senator to secure a Hughes Endorsement.
Taft has behind him the two most prom
inent Republican papers in the State, the
Omaha Bee and the Lincoln journal. Dut
he also has as his chief enemy Il. Il.
Schneider, of Fremont, national commit
teeman and a member of the executive
committee of the Republican national com
mittee. Schneider is also head OF the
grain trust. Roosevelt fired a relative OF
Schneider out Of office. Therefore, Schnei-

GAME BIRDS DECREASING;
EXTINCTION THREATENED.
Audubon Workers Declare That Legis-
lative Action Is Needed to Pre-
serve Dying Species.

NEW YORK, Dec. 23-That many breeds
of game birds are seriously threatened
with extinction in America at the present
time is asserted by pathological authori-
ties here. Reports which have been re-
celved at the headquarters of the Ma
tional Association of Audubon Societies
from sportsmen, wardens and experts
In every section Of the country show
alarming decreases In grouse, quail, wood
cock, ducks and various shore birds. Not
only sport but public health will suffer
permanent injury, officers Of the associa-
ton declare, unless action is taken by
State Legislatures this winter to protect
these dying species of game.
Only the enlargement of the activities
of the Biological Survey, which was recon-
mended In the Presidents message, will
effectively check this general destruction
of Americas game birds, Audubon workers
say. Hard campaigning In The Legislatures
has enabled them to obtain some measure
of protection for the non-game birds, but
1t has always been found difficult TO show
the law makers that the game species
nave a great practical as well as sporting
value. Data which the government survey
can obtain with wider research is con-
sidered the only needful weapon in this
defense Of the birds.
