Non-Partizan Nominations

The Barlow Record seems to think il
is perfectly right and proper that men OF
all shades of political opinion should
vote in our democratic primaries. On
the subject the Record says:
The negro question forbidS the ex-
iStence of any other than the democratic
party in state matters; hence the prima-
ry is the real election at which men are
selected to administer the government OF
the state. Are the men who are repub-
liCan, as TO national matters, to be barr
ed from expressing choice as to who
will handle The taxes that they pay in 10
the state treasury? If SO it might be an
attractive feature G) for the advertisers
of Florida and its products 10 put in their
literature.
Our contemporary observation has a
very magnanimouS sound TO it, but the
difficulty democrats will find in the way
OF literally following the course it Sug-
geStS is that there would not then be any
state democratic party. In the days
when the democratic party made its
nominations by convention the other
parties were Just as much in the minori
ty as they are today, and the negro
question" was just as prominently with
us, but it did not seem 10 occur TO any
one that members of other parties should
be invited to come into our conventions
and hold the balance of power between
contending forces within the party. Be
cause we have seen fit to change the
method of nominating our candidates is
there any good reason why we should
invite members of other parties TO hold
the balance of power and make our
nominations for us if they happen to
concentrate on one or another candidate?
We fear that Editor Savage is not al
together orthordox and feel quite inter
cSted TO know more of his party aifilia-
tons in the past.-Bradford County

The opinion Of Attorney General
Wickersham, approved without com
ment by President Taft, should prove
valuable reading TO those narrowminded
members of the Grand Army of the Re
public who are trying to forget that the
war between the states is over, and eS-
pecially to that branch of the organiza-
ton of ex-federal soldiers who made
vigorous protest against the erection of
a statue of General Robert f. Lee in
Statuary hall, Washington, clothed in
the garb OF a Confederate general. After
citing the law and deciding that the
placing of this statue was in full harmony
with its provisions, General WickerSham
goes on to say:
at is now forty-five years since the
civil war was closed. Robert f. Lee
has come to be generally regarded as
IMPLYING, not only all that was best in
the cause to which, at the behest of his
native state, he gave his services, but
also the most loyal and unmurmuring ac
ceptance of the complete overthrow of
that cause. That the state of Virginia
should designate him as one illustriouS
for distinguished military service is
therefore natural that his statue should
be clothed in the Confederate uniform,
thus eloquently testifying to the fact that
a magnanimouS country has completely
forgiven an unsuccessful effort TO destroy
the union, and that the statute should
be accepted in the national Statuary hall
as the symbol of the acceptance without
miSgivings, of complete surrender,
and renewed loyalty, should surely
provoke no opposition. But, at all
events, independently of the question
OF taste, the act of congress places no
restriction upon the designation by the
states of those whom they may desire to
honor in this way, nor does it vest in
any official, any censorship concerning
the designation of the costume in which
that statue shall be depicted.
Therefore, under the existing law, !
am of the opinion that no objection can
be lawfully made to the placing in Stat
uary hall of the national capitol Of a
statue of Robert E. Lee, clothed in the
Confederate uniform"

What State Editors are
Saying.
Young Men to the 'FRONT.'

The fight for prohibition this year is
to be won by the young men of the state.
They have grown up since prohibition
has become respectable, since the wet
Sideboard and the family Jug have be-
come thing of the past. They have
been taught and understand the underly-
lying principle of prohibition, that the
man is worth more than the dollar
They have brains which the fumes of
liquor have not befuddled; they stand
separate and distinct from the alcoholic
age, and have clear eyesight to see as an
onlooker the trail of blood and crime
made by the saloon. They know that
the white mans obligation, the strong
mans burden, is to save the weak. We
are glad TO see young men, brave and
strong and courageous, coming TO the
front in the fight for clean, decent and
sober state. Rejoice that the banners
of prohibition are in the hands of the
young men of Florida. 1t means victory
for statewide prohibition. -Brooksville
