test would be to create sharp and ag-
gressiye antagOnism between the sup
pOTters OF the candidates in West
Florida, which would endure until the
general primary, and enlist a large
number OF the friends of the defeated
candidate against the successful one,
and defeat the effect of the primary
anticipated by Judge Reeves, of hav-
ing the west support the victorious
candidate. Upon the contrary, q
sharply divided west would present
an easy victory to the other candi-
dates.
The majority of the victorious can
didate might be a majority OF one vote,
or of ten votes, or some very small
number, and the effect of this mere
technical numerical majority would
be to outweigh the thousands of votes
in the other parts Of the state VINO
might desire the defeated person 70
be a candidate, and such a result
would not be satisfactory to the de-
feated candidate. nor to the voters OF
the state of Florida, because it might
eliminate the candidate more desiTa

If the other candidates were not voted
for, and their voters divided between
Judge Reeves and me, the singular
anomaly would be presented OF the
selection of a West Florida candidate
by voters who did not intend to vote

that is, of their putting forth as their

The result of such a primary would
not furnish any assurance that the
wishes OF the voters had been ascer-
tanned. The election and canvass
would be without any of the safe
guards surrounding official elections,
or even the regular primaries. There
would not even be the obligation OF

neither candidate, nor the state at

THE BAND CONCERT

The weekly band concert last week
was truly delightful, more so Jnan US
ual on account of the perfect weather.
The crowd was much larger than on
the previous Friday night on account
of the more formidable weather.
The children playing about the
court house, the dozens Of autOmO-
biles whizzing around. and the large
crowds on the Ocala House piazza and
in the court house square, listening
to the music, and the splendid music
rendered by our magnificent band all
combined to make the evening a great
treat to our people, and to the many
visitors to the city as well.
The program was an unusually
splendid one, and was as follows:

and was full of meaning to the young
people about to graduate. His speech
was repIete with splendid thought and
was expressed in very beautiful Ian
guage. We regret that we cannot
give his address in full, as we were IN
able to obtain it from Prof. Suhrie, he
speaking without notes.
Our new superintendent OF public
instruction, Mr.. J. H. Brinson, was Sc
lected to deliver the diplomas to the
young graduates, which he did in a
very pleasing manner
Next came the presentation of the
gold medal that is awarded each year
by the board of public instruction to
the pupil in the high school depart
ment making the best scholarship for
the entire term. OF course the pupils
and their friends were greatly inter
ested in who had won the medal and
were on the qui vive of excitement.
Mr. L. w. Duval, who is one of our
best known young lawyers and who
makes exceedingly clever speeches,
delivered the medal and did it well, as
he does all things. The remarks he
made were bright and amusing, and
when he announced the winner of the
medal, Mr.. Robert L. Anderson, Jr., it
was met with a most enthusiastic re-
Spouse. Mr.. Anderson's average for
the year was a fraction over 90 per
cent. Miss Mabel Beck of Fellowship
and Miss Helen Brown ran Mr.. An
derson very close race, and the diff
ference between their averages is only
a hairs breadth, and their friends are
exceedingly proud of them. All three
made averages above SO per cent, the
fraction of 1 per cent. deciding the
winner.
Mr.. Robert A. Purford presided at
the commencement exercises, and did
his duty most gracefully.
The stage was very pettily decorat.
ed with yellow and black ribbons, o.
H. S. pennants and beautiful ferns,
and each Of the graduates were al.
most hidden under the oceans of fow-
ers they were given. The graduates
also received many handsome gifts.

The Graduates Given a Supper
After the graduation exercises the
members of the graduating class were
given a very lovely supper by Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert L. Anderson, in compli-
ment to their son, who won the schol-
arship medal
The guests were seated at the liable
in the dining room, where the appoint
ments were perfect. In tbs. center of
the table was beautiful vase of roses
and at each place was a quotation on
life, being most appropriate to these
young people, who are about to en-
bark on the sea of life.
A two-course supper, including sal
ad and its Accomplishments. followed
by ice cream and cake, was beautiful
ly served and greatly enjoyed by the
happy class.
AS a souvenir of this memorable oc-
casiOn each one of the young ladies
was presented lovely silk sewing bag
and the gentlemen handsome purses.
The supper given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Anderson to the graduates will al
ways be remembered by them as a
happy termination of their graduation
day.

CLOSING OF OCALA HIGH SCHOOL
One of the Finest Years in History of This Institution Just
Completed. Splendid Baccalaureate Sermon Metho-
dist Church. Graduating Exercises at Baptist
Church. MIR Robert Anderson Win
ner of the Scholarship Medal.

Friday was the last day of the real
school days of the term 19OS-9 al
though the pupils were required to
assemble on Monday to receive their
report cards, certificates for entrance
into higher classes, etc, but there was
no actual school on that day.
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
were very strenuous ones, as all ex-
aminations were held on those days,
and when Friday afternoon arrived so
deep was the sigh of relief of the
children that it was almost audible.
And even if some few did not make
high enogh marks ito pass" they were
still glad that the agony was over.
Good work has been accomplished
during the past term. In fact we
think that each year our school is
growing better, and the work accom-
plished by the pupils more and more
praiseworthy. The graduating class
this year have made a wonderful rec
ord, and it is the first time in the
history of the school that there have
been more boys to graduate than girls.
1t is also a notable fact that there are
more boys than girls in the high
school department, which is a splen-
did record.
Too much praise cannot be given
Mr.. Workman, our very splendid prin-
cipal, and all of our public school
teachers. They are doing a splendid
work in Ocala, and one that will bear
lasting fruits.
The new building for the primary
school this term has been a wonderful
help, as it relieved the crowded con-
dition of the school, and enabled the
children all to do much better work
than heretofore.
For the next four months school
books will be laid away, and we hope
that the vacation days are going to
be very happy ones for both the
teachers and the pupils.
1t is a matter Of very great regret
that Miss Fort and Miss Haley will
not return to Ocala next fall. They
are both teachers of the highest type
and their designations are very thor
oughly regretted, but are unavoidable,
as both have other plans for next
year. All of the other teachers will
return the first of next October.
Miss Forts place has been filled
by Miss Elizabeth Mizelle, who now
teaches the seventh grade at Barlow,
and who will teach the sixth grade in
Ocala. and Miss Anna E. Richards Of
Summerville. S. c. will take Miss
Haley's place. She is a graduate Of
the University of Nashville, a student
graduate of the University of Chicago
and of Columbia College, New York

We claim that if catching cold could o,

cold often forms a culture bed for germs oil
Infectious diseases. Consumption, pneu-
monia, diphtheria and scarlet fever, four OF
the most dangerous and fatal diseases, are OF
this class. The culture bed formed by the
cold fayors the development of the germs OF
these diseases, that would not otherwise find
Judgment. There is little danger, however,
of any of these diseases being contracted
when a good expectorant cough medicine
like Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is used.
1t cleans out these culture leds that favor
the development of the germs OF these dis

so universally successful in preventing pneu-
