Johnson People Getting Tired.

For nearly year the people have
been stirred up over fence cutting and
road obstructing case wherein Richard
w. White, an EngliShman, and Clifford
Martin were the principals. There have
been more than half dozen cases before
the court. During the summer the mat
ter has been dropped owing to the alb
Sence of the parties in the north.
They returned last week and the ball
was started again. Martin had White
arrested charged with obStructing a road.
The case came on before Judge Coke
on Wednesday morning, but the state
withdrew its case at the opening of
court Several Johnson citizens who
had been called as witnesses stated to
the News that they were in hopes this
would end the matter and that the little
town would be allowed to discuss other
matters. They were getting tired ofthe
quarrel.
The last the News saw was the dove
of peace flyidg west up the "peavine"
track, probably headed for Johnson.

Big NEGRO VOTE
NOW QUALIFYING.
Liquor Interests Make Final
Desperate Appeal to Cap
ture that Vote
Which is Very Wide of The Truth.

The organized liquor interests of the
state, knowing that the death kncll of
that business has been sounded by the
outraged white people of Florida, arc
now making a last desperate effort TO
capture the colored vote of the state TO
defeat the amendment.
One of Palatka'S most respectable
colored men told the News that che
had intended TO vote for the amendment,
but since it had been explained to him
that the amendment would DISFRAN-
CHISE THE NEGRO he would vote
against it.
What rot. The amendment has
nothing 10 do with cnfranchiSemcnt or
diSfranchiScment. Ii simply will pro-
hibit the beverage liquor business in
Florida. Just that and nothing more.
Intelligent negroes will see this as well
as anyone else.
But the LIE shows TO what desperate
methods the booze gang of Jacksonville
will resort 10 save the day. But its too
late.
That the booze gang is still paying the
poll taxes of the irresponsible, bum
negro-the purchaSabIc element of the
race--iS shown by the reports that come
from all parts of the state. The St. Au-
guStine Record of Wednesday last says:
Between fifty and sixty poll taxes
were paid yesterday and eighteen up TO
II O'Clock this morning. OF this num-
Der just about one-third are white and
two-thirdS negroes. Very few negroes
registered before this week. A noticea-
Bile feature is the great percentage of
negroes who are qualifying to vote"
Tax Collector Hancock told the News
yesterday morning that more than one
half of the voters qualifying during the
past two weeks were negroes. They
come in and pay the money and get
their receipts. The collector can't
know where they get the money.
Neither can the News, but it and you
have a pretty good idea WHERE 1T
COMES FROM.
The Jacksonville booze perpetuating
gang is getting more and more desperate.
In qualifying the lowest element of the
negro race and thus making them the
balance Of power in Florida politics,
this booze gang is sounding an alarm
that will unite the white people and de-
cent, God-fearing blacks for the amend
ment.
The amendment is bound to win.
Such are the reports that come from all
parts of the state.
That will mean the end of Saloon,
Bum Negro & Co.'S domination in
Florida.

NAPOLEON BR0WARD

were preparing their sugical instru'
nents. He had been i'll for weeks,
and Wednesday II was seen that his
chances of recovery were slight.
For four years Mr.. BIoward was
governor of Florida and during that
time commenced the draining of the
Everglades, which, when completed
will probably be the greatest single
undertaking In Floridas history
After serving his term as governor,
Mr.. Broward was defeated for United
States senator by Duncan U. Fletcher,
which. by the way, was his only de-
feat In politics. In June, of this year
he defeated James P. Taliaferro at the
democratic primaries for United
States senator by a large majority
and was regarded as the strongest po-
lltlcal factor in the state.
An Example Of seIf-Made Man.
He is a good example of the SELF
made man Of America. Early in the
go, enttes he lost his father and moth
ar, and, 1t is said, was forced to start
70 work as a tugboat cook and rousta-
bm,t He worked in this capacity,
prootically illiterate, for several years,
and was in turn employed as seaman
niloL and captain Of small craft on
the st, Johns river, until he purchas-
ed a third interest in the famous fill
bustering tug Three Friends. AS
commander of the craft he made four
exnedittons to Cuba, once landing In
tbe harbor Of Havana despite the
Spanish fleet, -,
He was elected sheriff OF DuVal
county and served two terms. After
w,rds he was elected state legislator
and governor
The cabinet of Governor Gilchr'st
met and passed eulogistic resolutions
when news of former Governor Brow
ards death was learned.

u. S. SENATE
Hon. w. A. Blount of Pensacola
and N. P. Bryan of Jackson
vile Announce.

Other Announcements will Surely
II seems TO be the concensus of opin
ion among influential democrats in all
parts of the state that party law requires
that candidate for the United States
senate to succeed Senator Taliaferro
must be recommended to the legislature
by primary.
The cost of state primary would be
considerable, and there is no provision
for meeting such expense except through
assessments on candidates, and these as
seSsments are limited by law to per
cent OF one years salary of the office
sought. This would limit the legal as
sesSment on candidates for the United
States senate to 1915.
The cost of the primary is estimated
at from $4,000 to $4,000. Chairman
Price of the State democratic executive
committee has stated that he would call
the committee together in few days
when the question will be decided.
Pressure will be brought to bear on the
committee to leave the question of the
lamented Broward's successor as nomi-
nee 10 the legislature. But it is thought
the committee, in view of the party law
will not dare ignore its plain provisions.
Candidates are already announcing.
Wednesday morning the News received
the following telegram from Hon. w.
A. Blount of Pensacola:
Pensacola, Fla, October 4.
The News, Palatka, Fla.

the United States senate TO sccceed SEN
ator Taliaferro. | prefer running in a
primary 10 be held before April next,
but if that be impracticable, will be in
the contest before the legislature.
w. A. BLOUNT.
Hon. w. H. Milton of Mariana, in
signed statement issued Monday after
noon, announced that Hon. N. P. Bryan
of Jacksonville would be a candidate
for the United States senate.
In Tampa there is strong talk of the
the candidacy of A. J. Knight, also of
the possibility of Congressman S. M.
Sparkman's entering the race.
One thing is certain-there will be no
lack of candidates,

No ROOM FOR 70
States insane
At The ASYLUM

Jackson, Miss, Dec. 14.-The Mis-
sissippi Insane Hospital has applica-
tions on file for the admission of fully
rs patients, who cannot be accommo-
dated owing to the lack of room in
the wards.
For more than year the hospital
has been badly crowded, and it was
expect that the legislature at its
last session would take cognizance
of existing conditions and make an
appropriation for additional buildings,
but it failed to do so, and as conse-
uuence the board of trustees and
Supt. Nolan Stewart are kept at their
wits ends to provide adequate ac-
commodations for patients.
Each mail brings imploring letters
| from sheriffs in the various counties
asking that admission be granted to
insane persons who are being held in
! iail because of the fact that the coun'
ties have no other places in which
the unfortunates can be confined. The
hospital can grant these requests
only in the few instances where wards
are made vacant by the restoration
to sanity or death of patients undel
treatment.
AS it is more than year until the
next legislature meets, and after ade
quate appropriation is made it vii
take several months to provide the
new wards, the problem that con
fronts the board of trustees is golnt
to become more serious with eacl
passing month. Practically the sam'
conditions prevail at the East Missis
sippi Insane Hospital, due to legisla
tive negligence, Supt. BuchanaR haV
ing on file a large number of applica
tions for admission that cannot b
approved because of lack Of room.

The rate hearing was commenced on

when western railroads announced
that rates on fifty different commodi-

to the advance became general all
