Rroward's Style of Campaigning.

Florida rejects a Taliaferro for a
Broward. That means that there are
more wool hats than silk hats in the
state below us. 1t means that Brow
ard could go out among the "Yaps"
for there are no Hill Billies" in Flor
ida, and out-talk a scholar and a Con-
federate veteran
Senator Taliaferro has served with
distinguished ability for twelve years,
and has done much to assure Florida
a dignified position in the senate. He
was a Virginian, of a family that has
earned fame in the pulpit, and at the
bar, and in other walks of life.
Gov. Broward, who has been chosen
by the people to serve in the senate,
has served as governor of Florida and
had a stormy popularity with the COM
mon people. He is one of them, with
all the shrewdness and with the I'M
common ability of those people.
/ He went among them as one OF
them, and they have promoted him to
the highest office in their gift He
will make good senator and will rep
resent his state. Many people think
rotation in office is good for the peo-
pie.
At times the people get the idea
Of electing a man to Office as a pro-
test, and we fancy that was an e1e-
ment in the list of causes of Broward's
election. Ledger.

The Savannah News thus welcomes
the Red Men to it's town:
Ugh. Plenty big Injun come. Town
full; Injun too. Eat much: drink
soda water: smoke much pipe. Have
good time. Red Men own town
Won't sell it. Wampum no good.
Scalps fit tight. Eat some more;
smoke Calumet fine, squaws, too
Yamacraws all to merry. Visitors too.
Ugh! All of which is an effort to ex-
tend the glad hand to the Red Men
land Indians never shake hands), and
tell them how welcome they ire. The
vernacular may be bit rocky, not
withstanding it is COPIED largely from
Fennimore Cooper's famous tales, but
the meaning of it is a welcome just
as sincere as if the Grand Sachem, or
Sycamore, or whatever they call the
High-Muck-a-Muck, had said it him
self. The Red Men are in the wigwam
Of their friends, and they know it.
Smoke up
The vernacular is all right so far as
we know. We are impressed with the
emphasis the News puts on the
smoking of pipes and the drinking of
soda water. 1t is not at all strange
that "firewater" is tabooed.

he will measure up to the place he

Ex.-Gov. Vardaman's View.

GA.-SONs NdTodfIldH NlC"s
AS We go to press the senatorial con-
test in Florida is still in doubt.
I sincerely hope Broward has been
elected.
Taliaferro, the present incumbent,
made the same fight against Broward
that the common cause" secret
caucus crowd are making against Var
daman in Mississippi.
Taliaferro is said to be the repre-
sentative of the railroad interests, and
on the eve of the election a lot OF
scurrilous and scandalous stuff was
scattered over the state regarding the
gubernatorial administration Of Brow
ard
It is unfortunate that a man in this
country cannot run for Office on his
own merits without misrepresenting
his opponent. - Vardaman's Issue

The poet laureate of the st. Paul
Dispatch for some reason is about the
happiest man alive. Judging from the
following excellent lines:
There isn't a man in the whole wide
world
Who is quite as proud as | am,
The proudest monarch from Edward
Rex
To the tinseled throne of Siam
The blood leaps clear through my
throbbing veins,
And the bird songs ring in my ears
Like the wedding bells of the universe.
And l haven't place for tears.
It's great to be glad. to feel the JOY
OF knowing that you are living,
It's great to drink from the sparkling
life
That the fountains of love are
giving!
To walk and talk by the lowered way,
Caressed by whispering breeze,
Hearing the music that grand'y sweeps
Through the lyric limbs of the trees !.
Live, laugh and love!" It's a world
of joy
To him with a gift for dreaming,
A million fairies are spreading roses
Where dews like Jewels are CLEAN.
ing!
It's mighty fine world, full of mighty
fine folks,
And only the sluggard is sad,
I'm glad I'm living, I'm glad you're

And I'm glad that you're glad thai
I'm glad,

The Future of
Charles w. Morse.

The Journal timidly ventures the
prediction that within the next few
months Chas. w. Morse will be a free
man. His devoted wife is sending out
petition to the newspaper men of the
country pleading for their signature.
This petition is addressed to President
Taft, explaining to him that in
asking this We do not hesitate to ex-
press our belief that the great ma
iority of our fellow citizens would be
gratified at such exercise of your par
doning power
Of course the appeal of this woman,
who is unquestionably a good woman
ard evidently a most devoted wife,
will impress the newspaper men, for
they're a tender-hearted lot. They will
sign that petition, just because wo-
man asked them to. The president
will scan the 10000 or more names OF
his subjects from all corners Of this
limited monarchy, and decide that
maybe Morse after all, is not the mon
ster he has been pictured. The par
don will be forthcoming, for Mr.. Taft
himself is full of that humane stuff
| that goes to make the world better
and easy to pull.
The Journal is not urging the par
| don of Morse, nor are We protesting
against executive clemency. We are
simply stating a fact and risking a
prophesy.
| Moreover, there seems to be NO rea-
| son to assume that in case of free
dom, Mr.. Morse will not be ready ror
business by the opening Of the next
ice season-perhaps not at the same
old stand, nor will his old methods be
in favor, but he will sell ice. Mr.
Morse is a progressive man, and not
for one moment would We believe that
he would consider those antiquated
methods of conducting a business
though the now ancient ideas once
made him prosperous. He will run
things differently next time.
Really, if Mr.. Morse is to go in bust
ness again, We should not like to see
him set about to Cypress and plumber
helpless orphans and widows. We
should not like to see him monopolize,
during the approaching winter, all the
natural ice on the Hudson, or any
other river, hold this ice till the hot,
merciless days of summer, and refuse
to sell it to the suffering thousands
who could not pay his price for the
commodity. This would not only be
unkind Of Charles but it would prove
him ungrateful. 1t would show that
he did not appreciate the sympathy of
his fellows and the leniency of the
president.
Because Morse was shining light
in the criminal world when he was a
free man before. is not, necessarily, an
indication that he will shine brighter
in this respect when sweet freedom
again eases his sorrowing soul. On
the contrary, he will do his shining
among the elite of the social arena.
He will be wined and feted by the
four hundred of his town. He will be
looked upon as a sort of vest pocket

For Juvenile Courts.
The Pensacola Journal has taken up
a movement for the establishment of
juvenile courts. Such reforms as the
adjustment of the fee system and
convict lease system and the establish
ment of juvenile courts, and others
that have been brought to the public
mind through the work of certain
states and individuals that have taken
the initiative, are certain to come in
time, but it Is plainly the duty of the
newspapers to take them up, one by
one, and push them to passage
through legislative action. At the ses-
sion of 1907, a measure for juvenile
courts was presented, if recollection
serves US truly, but the representa-
tives Of the people were not ready for
1t at that time. There had been no
agitation of the matter generally. and
there was but one journal that dis
cussed the subject. The great work
that Judge Ben Lindsey, of Denver,
has done for the youthful criminals of
that city, and resultantly for the en-
tire country, was not then generally
known as it is now, through the publ
cation of his story, THE Beast and the
Jungle" But somebody in every COM
munity has read the story, and the
public mind is better prepared to re-
ceive suggestions along reform lines
where the treatment of youthful Of
tenders is concerned. The Journal has
something to work upon in Pensacola,
| too. Some months ago the Metropolis
commented on the arrest of several
boys in Pensacola for gambling. The
sum involved was five cents. These
| boys, as we recall it, were arrested
and thrown into the lookup. The cruel
| justice of such action, evidently sane
toned by the city authorities, is
enough to make the blood boil, when
| high-handed criminals walk the street
unmolested and f1aunt their iniquities
| in the face of decency. The Journal
| has begun work in a good cause. and
we pledge the assistance Of the Me-
| tropolis in attempting to do as much
| for the misguided youth of Florida as
| the work of Judge Lindsey did for the
| juvenile criminals of Denver-Miami
Metropolis.
