WHY SUPPORT PARASITES?

Everywhere there is "a demand for
the elimination OF partisan politics
from the administration of the AFFAIRS
OF cities. According TO recent mag
azino article describing what has act
ually taken place IN Houston Texas:
"Now began the work of climina-
lion OF politicians from the rank and
Ole OF the city employees Numbers
of men were found holding office
purely because they had political
pull ot influence. Many of them
did not DO enough work Boo ga month

cilcssly and So promptly that the
hcadsman's basket could not hold
them. the heads Of these parasites
We're cut of. There was wailiug and
crashing of teeth. and So was aston
iahiug the number OF men who We're
quickly seeking work elsewhere. or
course, such action engendered "a
great deal OF enmity bur the good

basket and began 90 curse and swear

In his journal, The Commoner, Mr..
Bryan urges the Democrts to accept
Mr.. William Randolph Hearst and
his Independence League as allies.
That seems to be one of the things
that is the matter with the Demo-
cratic party now. 1t is suffering
from surplus of allies having all
sorts of cranky notions. The only
presidential fight that the Demo-
cratic party has won since the war
between the states was when it
made straight fight on Democratic
principles and tacticly told the
would-be allies to go chase them
selves.-Savannah Morning News.

and benefit. One OF the most success
full deer hunters 1 know trained this
way, and you will readily see the good
points Of this practice on trial of it.
Secure half a dozen barrel heads for
your partner. Have him take a posi-
ton at the top of the hill and roll these
heads down the slope diagonally. At
first it will be best TO select a fairly
smooth slope and have the targets roll
ed down at medium rate. At fifty

ton, according TO your gun and am
munition. If it is a %, somewhat
smaller target might be used at little
shorter distance At your signal one
of these targets is started on its jour
neys As it starts bring the gun to
the shoulder, taking aim and swinging
with the moving object. Always aim
TO hit the center of the object. You
will find that the eye naturally seeks
the center, just as it is nature for one
to see the front sight through the CEN
ter of the peep Do not attempt to
hold your gun at a point the target
will pass and try TO pull the trigger
while it passes, but pull when the aim
has been secured, just as when firing
at a stationary object.-Outer's Book.

appear for trial on five indictments

Tallahassee with capias to bring
L'Eugle to Bradentown immediate
~ for trial. L'Engle had presented
an affidavit to the judge asserting
that as he is state printer be could
not leave Tallahassee, but. Judge
Stewart ruled this an insufficient ex-
cuse and took action as stated above.
The people of Bradentown are vegy
much interested in thts case. The

up by the Democratic Executive
Committee Of Manatee county, and
Mr.. Graham was completely exon
Grated after all of the evidence had

The state pardoning board is al
ways doing something nice. About
their latest caper is to pardon a man
convicted of selling liquor in a dry
county, vino was convicted, fined
and sentenced to serve six months in
the county Jail. He had been con-
victed several times before, and the
judge thought to give him a sentence
severe to make a law abiding citizen
out of him, but before he had COM
menced on his Jail sentence, the par
doning board set him free. Very
little use to punish crime, pay court
costs, etc, until some change comes
over the pardoning board or until
the personnel Of the pardoning board
is changed. There must be change
somewhere.-Liv Oak Democrat.

Florida should have a home for its

with the dignity of the great office.

functions, the conditions at the Hos

A TERRIBLE BUGABOO.

The Herald editor has made it a
rule during the past twenty years to
yell Corporation :" loud and strong
in every campaign. We were led to
believe that the naughty and terrible
corporations were going to ruin the
country with one broad, gigantic
sweep aud that the railroads, banks
and bloated coupon clippers would
be all that were left in this old world.
We've done quit that foOlishness-
learned better sense and hereafter
We expect 60 "yell'' for those fellows
who are on the right track if they
belong to forty corporations.
1t was said that the common peO-
pie elected Broward, the first chance
they had under the primary system
TO select a governor. If that's the
best the common people can do We
are opposed to any more common
people foolishness.
But there are no common people at
the ballot box. One vote counts
Just as much as another, and one in
terest is Just as great as another
The people need the railroads and
the railroads need the people in their
work, therefore the cry of corpora
ton against the people is all bosh,
and we are Disguised at the whole
business.
Let men be selected for Office who
are capable, competent and just
moderately honest, it matters not
whether they are one-horse farmers
or railroad presidents. a mans oc-
cupation has nothing TO do with his
qualification for office. This good
country of ours is going to rock
along anyway, and there is no need
to attempt TO create strife between
capital and labor and the rich and
the poor.
a fair field and no favors is our
motto, and we hope that from past
mistakes and hurtful blunders our
people may learn valuable lesson
and make some much needed i'm
provements in State and county Off
GERS when the primaries are held
next year.-White Springs Herald.

The publishers Press says: "A
newspaper is in no sense a child of
charity. 1t earns over every dollar
it receives, and it is second to no en-
terprise in contributing to the up
building of community. Its pat
rons reap far more benefits from its
pages than its publishers, and in call.
ing for the support of the communi-
ty in which it is published, it asks

longs to it, though generally it re-
ceives less. Patronize and help your

prise because it helps you and not as
