Dlas wandered into a forest near tho
town of Schoeneck on the morn;no ~

The Wage-Agitators.
Among the matters that have
been presented to the consideration of
the territorial grand jury now SITTING
is the high wage agitation and tbe
reckless and desperate methods that
nave been urged on plantation laborers
by their irresponsible leaders. If the
grand jury finds that the agitation
threatens to disturb the public peace
and that the japanese leaders in the
movement have gone to the length of
threatening the lives of their country
men who have opposed them. there is
every indication that indictments will
be returned and some of the reckless
ones called for an explanation before a
Judge and jury.

BAPTIST WITNESS MOVES TO
JACKSONVILLE

With this issue the Florida Baptist
Witness changes its place of publica-
ton from Arcadia to Jacksonville. Its
size and general appearance is to be
somewhat like the Advocate. The
Witness is the official organ Of the
Florida Baptists. a very strong and
aggressive body of Christian people.
1t seems to us that the Witness and
the Advocate, now being issued from
the same office, ought to be able to
do a wonderful work for the Lord
The Christian people of the state
have long wished to have a means OF
furthering the great moral and relig
ious movements and reforms which
Florida so much needs. This is their
opportunity, for the Witness and the
Advocate cover Florida like the
dew"
There will be no communities into
which either one or both will not go
and every home in the state can be
reached through the medium of these
champions of righteousness and every
movement that looks to the uplift OF
the race. We pray that the editors
Brothers Edwards and Britain, may
have the presence and comfort of the
Spirit in their work, and we trust
that they may make the Witness in
creasingly helpful to their constituent.
cy. We do hope the people will rally
to their support. both with money and
cooperation otherwise.-The Florida
Christian Advocate.

cd Assistant Attorney General
John M. Atkinaon holds that non.

cannot hunt. sven on their own
land. without taking out . nom
resident hunting license and pay
inc sa5 therefor. The opinion
was prepared ct the instance OF
State Game and Fish Commis-
sioner Jesse A. Tolsrton.
Outside Of Missouri the idea
seemed 10 prevail that II q nom

in this state he would be entitled
to the same exemption as a resi-
dent, and could hunt on his own
land without q license.
Those who contended that nom
residents were entitled 10 this ex-
emptior pointed to o decision Of
the Supreme Court of Arkansas
where the law against non -resi-
dent land owners was recently
held to be void. The Assistant
Attorney General points out that
the Arkansas law prohibited
non-residents from hunting in
that state. despite the fact OF
their ownership Of land there,
while the Missouri law merely re-
quires the nonresident to take
out q license.
II am Of the opinion" says
the Assistant Attorney General, !,
"that the requirements Of the
preasnt act that all non residents,
including non-residents owning
land in this state, shall take out
a hunting license, is a reasonable
exercise Of the police power Of
