A LESSON FROM THE PRIMARY

This is the way Editor Storrs of the
DeFuniac Breeze tells the lesson of the
| primary:
In Duval county where the race
track gang reigned supreme during
| the past winter, and where to take the
reports from the papers for it the peo-
| pie We're reaping untold thousands of
| dollars as profits from the operation
| of the racing game, the candidate that
was most outspoken against repeal
| of the law eliminating pool selling
from the scope of legal occupations IN
Florida, was the leader in the race for
representative.
"But it is nearer home, over in Es-
Gambia county, in fact, where we get
| the most encouragement out of the
race for state senator John +. Stokes
| who was one Of the leaders of the tenn
perance forces in the last legislature,
| and stood sQuarely for better moral

conditions, won over J. Walter Kehoe.
rule, which was interpreted to mean
local, option. Mr.. Kehoe always votes
dry in local elections but was and Is
opposed to statewide prohibition, and
| was popularity understood to be back
ed by the saloon element in Pensacola.
4 city lflat certainly no pre-
| tentions to dryness, and yet Stokes. on
| an anti-saloon, anti-race track plat
| form, beat him, and that with many
| of the more conservative business men
| opposing him because Of his attitude
| in the street car strike there two years
| ago. AS one of them expressed 1T to
us: Stokes is anarchist, but he is dry
| as bone
| THE same conditions figured largely
| in the loss of that county for Griggs,
| who confidently expected to carry Es-
| Gambia county by six or seven hun
| dred majority, but who lost it to Mays
| by something like 200. Mays is known
| to be an out and out temperance man.
| Griggs, like kehoe, votes dry at home,
| but three years ago voted in the legis-
| lature against the prohibition amend
| ment, and he, too, was said to have the
| backing of the saloon element IN Pen
sacola.
| These we believe, may be taken as
| straws showing the direction OF the
trend of public sentiment on the pro-
hibition question.

Senator McMullen said that there
was no law enforced to the absolute
extinction of the evil sought to be
suppressed. He referred to Gov. Hoch
of Kansas, and said that prohibition
did prohibit in that state, because the
executive insisted upon the enforce
ment of the law. The speaker said
that Gainesville, which was a prohibi-

Ocala, wet town, had only two.

Local Option platform. He leadeth me
against Prohibition. He presenteth
me with bouquets and l proclaim that

3. Yea though l change my plat
form ten times to avoid the valley and
shadow of defeat, l will fear no evil,
the liquor traffic and the saloon peo-
pie, they comfort me.
4. They prepare table before me
in the presence of the fanatics. They
anoint me by cheering my speeches
until my head is turned with vanity.
The cup Of my pride runneth over.

But in our recent municipal primary
all three of the candidates for mayor
declared in favor of a strict enforce
ment Of law.
And they didn't propose to enforce it

either.
Macauley-The difficulty in the way
Of the proper enforcement of the law
is an organized sentiment in favor of
lawlessness justifying itself upon the
Especial plea of personal liberty Many
men do not appreciate the fact that
where there is no law there can be
no liberty. but they measure their
rights by the privilege of defying the
law and trample it under foot.
What we need in America is a new
comprehension Of the real meaning and
purpose of government.
1t is said that the greatest good is
the highest law and upon the idea OF
the mutual protection of one another
the structure of society and govern
ment rests.-Blackstone.
If a state decides that the public
good requires that piracy shall be sup
pressed, it matters not that there are
wicked men whose hearts have hard
ened until the only code they know is
Let him take who hath the power
and let him keep who can" 1t matters
not that there are men in official po-
sition, who have connived at their
iniquity.
1t matters not that some merchant
prince has found his league with the
buccaneer a source of proht.
If the public good demands it, it
must go.
If the nation realizes that the lottery
is an agency of decentralization, that is
corrupting the youth of our land
blasting hopes and wrecking homes
if it is for the general good, the lot
terry must go.
1t may be that there are politicians
who have place and profit by its opera

legislatures and jaundiced the Judg-
ments of courts. There may be those
whose names stand high on the roll of
achievement in other fields of en-
deavor. who have given il the weight

shaking hands with his many friends.
Mr.. Dale expressed his unqualified en-
dorsement of prohibition as a measure
conducive to good citizenship.
He says Gainesville dry is grow

was established a few weeks ago and

prohibit in Gainesville among the
masses, that few 'soakers' get their
liquor from Ocala and Jacksonville

are not allowed to exist.
He further said that the best Siti-

Following is the great speech OF
Senator Don McMullen of Tampa be-
fore the Anti-Saloon League Conven-
ton which met in Jacksonville last
week:
The Senator relied to a considerable
degree upon Scripture to verify that
prohibition was intended by the Gre
ator to rule in all things. Mr.. McNIul-
len quoted literally from the Bible,
and among other things said:
| And the Lord God formed man of the
| dust of the earth and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life, and man be-
| came living soul, and the Lord God
planted garden eastward in Eden,
and He put there the man whom He
had formed.
Lord God to grow every tree that is
pleasant to the sight. and good for
food; the tree of life also in the midst
of the garden and the tree of knowl-
edge of good and evil.
4. And the Lord God commanded the
man, saying, OF every tree of the gar
den thou mayest freely eat.
5. But of the tree of the knowledge
of good and evil thou shalt not eat
of it, for the day that thou eat thereof
thou shalt surely die.
| The first law established for the
government of human conduct.
| But the devil came and says thou
shall not surely die. The first advo-
cate of a liberal enforcement of the
law, and the progenitor of all the
champions of a wide-open town, Adam
and Eve, like a great many people
since, needed the counsel of Satan in
stead of Obeying the command of the
Lord, and got into trouble.
ieleven years ago, there We're a good
many people who We're carrying out
Satans plans quite successfully. The
Lord would say, Remember the Sab
bath day to keep it holy; six days
shalt thou labor and do all thy work
But the devil would come around and
say, Now that will work all right
| where your population are all Ameri-
cans, but here you have been accus-
toned to the cock fight and the bull
fight and the lottery, and the wide
open town, and Sabbath dissertation
land if you close up your town they'll
all leave here, and your cigar business
will go up in smoke sure enough. The
devil had said that until he had gotten
some honest, well-meaning people, who
