CLAIMS IT WAS
A PUT UP JOB

Langdon, n. D., Dec. 1S.-The case
of b. F. Bridges, the farmer charged
with incest and in which case 12-
year-old girl, Ellen Bridges, is the
states principal witness, was. called
In Justice court here, but because of
the death of the assistant states at.
hyrneys wife, was continued until
Tuesday Of next week, at which time
the hearing will be held Attorney E.
r. Sinkler will defend Bridges.
At the time of the hearing it is ex.
pected that some rather sensational
evidence will be introduced by the de.
fendant, tending to show that his ar
rest is the result of put up job. It
will be claimed that Mr.. and Mrs
Bridges have not been on very friend
.ly terms for some time past and this
case Is the outcome.
MIR. Bridges comes of very prom

| that TIE TROUBLE
COUNTY COMMISSIONER CASE
HAS BEEN CONTINUED UNTIL
# DEC. &c IN ORDER TO SECURE
q ATTENDANCE OF ONE OF THE
81 CANDIDATES.

Z In district court Friday morn.hg
Attorney Stevens of the firm of Stew
ems & Berndt, asked for a continu-
ance in the mandamus case of Fred
Korn VS.. Auditor T. w. Healy until
he could secure the presence in court
o. Harvey Smith, for whom his firm
appears. The application was grant
Ell and the case set for Dec. 26.
This case is complicated for the
reason that Harvey Smith refuses to
be a party to drawing lots to settle
the tie between himself and Fred
aKorn for county commissioner, it be-
ing understood he has conscientious
scruples against such a proceeding,
and had SO notified the county audi
tor and Korn some time ago, max
ing the situation a novel and trying
one for the county auditor, who un-
doubtedly desires to be fair toward all
concerned. MIR. Smith has stated that
he would not come in to participate
in such a settlement of the case and
his absence Friday seemed to bear
out his determination.
Everyone connected with the case
disavows any intention or desire to
euchre either Mr.. Smith or Mr.. Korn
out of the Office for which he is a
candidate and believe that in due
course a proper and legal conclusion
of the case can be secured without
any grea. legal war. .-@,-
In the meantime Stevens & Berndt
have been retained by Mr.. Smith to
contest the election for county com.

posed of in the regular way regard.

A Constitutional Amendment Be Voted Tuesday
/ o

would refuse to provide funds for
these institutions: they have surely
been fair if not liberal 10 mem. The
last legislature made sufficient appro-
priations for their maintenance until
the next legislature meets. But II Is
impossible TO forecast conditions year
TO year, and consequently practically
impossible to carry out a,system and
progressive policy of development.
Should Receive Support of All.
No man will dispute the proposition
that our educational institutions both
within and without ought to Be fres
from every form of political activity;
they are the Institutions of all the peO-
pie and they ought to receive the sup
port of all parties and all factions.
to exist on any other basis and they
should not be subject TO political
changes and fractional contentious.
In the case of the public free
schools we have acted wisely in en-
bodying provisions for their existence
and maintenance in the constitution.
IL is mandatory upon the legislature
TO provide for a uniform system of
public free schools and for the liberal
maintenance of the same. "A cOnstitu-
tional millage is levied both by the
state ny the Tue
port of the public free schools. Thus
the lower schools have their conStitu-
tional protection as they should, but
the higher institutions in the same
system have absolutely no such pro-
lection. This condition ought to be
changed. There is no reason why the
higher institutions shonld be except
ed from such constitutional safeguards
as are provided for the lower On
the contrary there is every reason
why they should enjoy the same pro-
lection The higher institutions are
for the whole state; hence they can
not receive any county support, but
must look to the state for their in
come. Now if the county ought to be
required by the constitution TO sup
port its local schools. the state as
whole ought similarly to ibe pledged
to the support of the state schools,
and the proposed amendment is mere
" TO accomplish this result and put all
the public school system on Just ba-
sis.

leges. increasing the appropriation o.
the Morrill, act five thousand dollars
per year, until that act provided for
fifty thousand dollars per year
subject to the same provisions
with reference to white and col
ored students. BY 1913 the appropri

funds will amount to fifty thousand
dollars annually. one half for the sup
port of the State University and one
half for the support of the institution
for colored students, which is known
as the Colored Normal School, and is
located at Tallahassee.
BY act of March 2. 1887. known as
the Hatch act, congress appropriated
fifteen thousand dollars annually TO
the agricultural colleges established
by. the act of 1862, above referred to
limiting the purposes of the appropri-
alton TO the promotion of scientific
investigation and experiment respect
ing the principles and application OF
agricultural science.
BY act of March -16. 1906, known as
the Adams act. Congress supplement
ell this act of 1887 by providing for its
increase at the rate of five thousand
dollars per year until it should reach
thirty thousand dollars per year.
These appropriations it Will be no

United States and is the contribution
Of the governments toward public edu.
cation and toward the work done in

Beneficiaries of the Acts.
The beneficaries of these severaf
acts are:
L. The University of the State of
Florida, which receives for the pur-
pose mentioned, the benefit OF one hall
of the seminary institute fund amount
ing to two thousand dollars.
The whole of the interest under the
act of 1862, amounting to 81 $3.50, Aone
half of the Morrill, and Nelson funds
which by 1913 will amount to, twenty
five thousand dollars, making total
for the university of $4,000.
The experiment station will receive
by 1913 from the Hatch and Adams
funds thirty thousand dollars.
2 Florida Female College receives
one half of the seminary institute
fund IA ;nting to two thousand dol
lars.
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1908-11-01

s. The Colored Normal school re
ceives one half of the Morrill, and Mel
son funds. which BY 1918 will amount
10 twenty-five thousand dollars.
g. The Institute for the Blind, Deaf
and Dumb is dependent wholly upon
state appropriations.
An Erroneous impression.
There is an erroneous impression
that the university gets the benefit OF
the Hatch and Adams funds. These
funds are required 10 be used solely
to promote scientific investigation
and experiment respecting the prin.
ciples and application of agricultural
science; and while the experiment sta
ton is located at gainesville where
the university is located, none of the
money derived from these funds can
be used for the Instruction of the
students az the university; but the
state receives the benefit CT the expert
nlents made at this station.
All of these federal acts provide
that the money appropriated by the
government shall not.be used for build
ing purposes. The states which &C
cept the benefit of Elese acts, in ad
ditien TO furnishing buildings and
grounds, are required to disseminate

With reference to these federal
funds ] desire 10 call your attention
TO the fact that the good faith of the
state is involved We, are certainly
morally. if not legallys bound TO pro

made subject TO aceebtance by the
