Ex-Governor Jennings denies
that there was any graft" in the
payment to him of those $4,000
fees by the Internal Improvement
Board; he insists that he honestly
earned them, aud asks if we think
that such men rs B. +. Mclsin,
w. V. Knott and A. 9. Groom
would be parties to any graft"
We do not. The fact that these
three gentleman voted to
pay the fees and that Claude
L'Engle says it was graft" con-
vinces us that there was no
graft" in it and that it was a just
and honorable transaction on both
sides. In referring to the matter,
THE HERALD was merely quoting
Claude against his pet candidates,
which is fair in politics as in love
and war.

who vote yes or no by direct
ballot"
True; nor can Gilchrist give US
State prohibition, The governor
has absolutely nothing to do with
the question. Even the legisla-
ture cannot give us State prohibit
ton, for Article XIX of the Con-
stitution guarantees 10 the people
of the various counties the RIGHT
to say by their votes whether
whiskey may be sold in their coun-
ties or not, and the legislature
cannot take away this right. This
being 50, and the governor having
absolutely nothing to do with
the question, itwill appear to ev.
cry man of common sense who is
not daft on Stockton that the
whiskey men have nothing save
fair treatment to gain from the
election of Gilchrist. They and
the corporations do not believe
that they will get such treatment
from Mr.. Stockton and that is
why they are said to be against
him.
The statement that the liquor
interests have put up $3.50, 900 to
elect Gilchrist, Is utterly without
proof or confirmation and is alb
surd on the fnce of it. 1t is u
matter Of widespread belief that
less than one-tenth of that sum is
sufficient to defeat any bill placed
before the legislature; at any rate,
a representative in the legislature
from Sumter county openly
charged several years ago that it
took only 100000 to pass the Flag
Ter divorce bill, and the county
division committees at Tallahassee
last year were told that they could
get their bills passed for less than
$4,000. If these things are true,
the vhiskey men would be simple
tons to spend $9SO,0O0 to elect a
governor, especially, when under
existing laws and the present con-
stitutiOn, he cannot possibly be OF
any special service to them.
But in this case it seems to be
"anything to beat Gilchrist. "
Tell and publish any sort of a tale
or SANDER that may deceive good
people into voting against him.
Will the people permit them
selves to he thus deceived!

In the haste of composition Incl
dent to, or rather caused by the
exasperating delay in getting the
last primary returns, The HERALD
alluded to Messrs. Stockton and
Broward as ''political buccaneers, y
an expression which appears to
have much distressed our courtly
contemporary of the Pensacola
Journal: hence, we wish to eX-
plain that we should have written
"political crusaders" instead OF
buccaneers, for the latter were
old-time Spanish sea-robbers,
whereas Messrs. Broward and
Stockton are only the troubadours
Of factional politics in modern
Florida.
The Punta Gorda herald. [volume] (Punta Gorda, Fla.) 1893-1958, 1908-06-04

Is it possible that any intelligent
prohibitionist thinks that Mr.,
Stockton, as governor, can give
us State prohibitions Governor
Broward is a pronounced prohibi-
tienist; he has been governor over
three years, and yet he has not
given us prohibition, not even in
his home county of Duval.
Mr.. Stockton, too, lives in the
same county.
The Punta Gorda herald. [volume] (Punta Gorda, Fla.) 1893-1958, 1908-06-04

just see the wonderful political
cunning of Stockton in getting the
preachers behind him. 1t is to be
hoped that he has also put the
devil behind him. Wouldn't 1t be
funny to hear him say, "Get
thee behind me, Satan" and then
look and sec the preachers there9

Now we have preachers as poll
ticians being used as cat'spaws
for Stockton, for which the
Church is likely to suffer in reputa-
ton. But the Church is all right,
though the preachers go astray
following after false gods. In
charity we may consider the
preachers such supplemented folk
that Satan has no trouble in de-
ceiving them into misleading The
people.

men of intelligence, but it seems
that an astute jacksonville politi-
clan can fool some Of the best of
them.

The Punta Gorda preachers are
all right. They are not as easily
duped by the Stocktonitss as are
their brethren of Jacksonville,

Don't blame the preachers too
severely. The Stocktonites have
succeeded in fooling many other
good men.
