month ago it is said that a certain
staunch supporter and open advo-
cate of local option, received and
stored in his barn a lot of local
option literature, and accidently
he left the barn door open and his
mich cows came in and ate all the
pamphlets. AS a result every one
of thu COWS went dry. Who do
you suppose that man is?

Governor Acts on Request of Trial
Judge and Jury-May Free
Prisoner.

RICHMOND. Va, April S-Howard
Toler. sentenced TO die in the electric
chair today in the State penitentiary,
has been given a respite by Governor
Swanson until May Z
Toler was convicted of criminal as
sault on little negro girl In Pulaski
county, the evidence at the time being
regarded as conclusive. Practically all
the witnesses were colored people, and
these formed complete chain of testi-
mony.
Since that time there have been de-
velopments creating grave doubts in
the minds Of the members of the jury
and the trial Judge. and they have COM
municated this new evidence to the gov
ernor for the purpose of having the
matter considered and to ask for a com
mutation of the sentence. If not for a
full pardon, for the man.

RnIbonrd Reform.

From the Florida Times Union.
Within the last year or so Jacksonville
has been proud to'see the popularity OF
the illustrated billboard on the wane. Let
Us hope that the next theatrical season
will keep from plastering our sretty city
with yellow, red, and green impossibili-
ties. Nightmares OF colorist, supposed
10 be good ads for the travelling show.
This provincial manner Of drawing the
public which does not care 20 be drawn
b. those crude methods is entirely beyond
the dignity Of any community. and Jack
sonville should put her firm. though
dainty, foot down upon this conglom-
crate mass Of poster sticking. The bill
board is as out Of date as the velocipede,
as ugly as the hoops Of half a century
ago. The public taste is unanimously
against 1t, therefore it must be down with
the billboard Too long has II taken its
brazen stand before the public, always
slow in calling a halt upon the offensive.
and II the biIboarding nuisance is not
offensive. then. In the name OF good taste,
what is?
Let US get ready to fight the foe No
more crimson ballerinas on green stages.
with crange-colored footlights. all en-
larged for fear Of public semi-blindness.
Jacksonville Is watchful, and whosoever
ofrendS IN this let him be punished. We
have every right TO keep our city beau
tful and unadorned by the screeching
art OF the poster artist.

We read with no small amount OF IN
terest that a certain vaguely designated
Massachusetts scientist" has promulgat-
ed the deliberate opinion that candy is
good for children, and that thoy should
be permitted to eat OF it freely, be-
cause it is conducive to health. happl-
ness. and juvenile peace OF mind
We should have been glad had we been
informed more specifically as 20 this so
called scientists" identity. We fear
he IS an impostor. or. at best, but poor
and weak imitation Of the real up-to-
date highbrow. The conclusion he de-
livers himself Of is very strange indeed.
and not at all in keeping with the usual
order Of things and methods OF procedure
among the elect. There IS nothing a
child likes quito so we'll as candy. and
"a lot Of it. The bitterest doses are
gluttonously gulped down by the children
II only the said doses be cleverly con-
cealed as to their tastes by generous
measures OF candy and other saccharine
substances. We have never seen II
stated anywhere that this sugary ele-
ment added anything to the medical
value OF the concoctions prescribed in
such cases; on the contrary we have
always understood 1t to be a grudging
concession TO expediency made for the
sake Of a final purpose scientifically in
dicated and achieved at any cost.
When. however. we are assured that
candy-just plain candy-is the proper
thing for children. and that we should
furnish It to them in generous quantity,
without any qualifications whatever, we
marvel that such things can be. Why, II
seems all but preposterous that anything
one unreservedly likes should really be
good for him. and calculated 70 make
him healthy and wise and glad to be
alive. When we were kids-we grown
folks-we never dreamed that a substance
so good to eat as candy possibly could
fan 20 harm US somehow ana after some
fashion II we partook Of It in any wise
save very sparingly. Surely, we never
dared TO think we might actually eat It
with benefit TO our physical make.upl
This scientist" herein concerned must
be the creature OF some benign and
humane imagination, Il we may so ex-
press ourselves. We hardly incline to
think that he can exist in the flesh
! He must be a pipe dream.

A little man skunk out OF a house on
