Jefferson County
And the Primary.

It seems that the executive COM
niittee of Jefferson county has decided
not to hold a senatorial primary, I'M
less the candidates Or some one else
pays~the expenses. If.this is final and
! :rrevocable. it Is a fact to be much
regretted. Jefferson is one OF the
best counties in the state and has
always taken a leading part in pa
triotic movements.
The Taylor County Herald COM
ments on this decision and says-so
significant things. among others, this:
We regret this action. If we are to
have primary it should be held in
every county in the state. We regret
it because of the further fact that
Jefferson county has been specially
honored by the people OF Florida.
That county is the home Of former
United States Senator Samuel Pasco;
it is the home of former Attorney Gen.
eral and Congressman w. B. Lamar.
1t is the lone OF the present Con
gresham d. H. Mays. 1t is the home
of the Baileys, the Denhams, the Turn
bulls, the Parkh1lls and many other
prominent and honored people, and
for those who stand SO high and have
been so signally honored to stand
outside the procession" because of the
lack Of few dollars to pay expenses
is too small and narrow Tor us to
have believed.
Nor do we believe the committee
voiced the sentiment of the people OF
Jefferson county. We believe they
want primary and that enough and
to spare" patriotic citizens could be
found who would serve as inspectors
without money and without price.
II Jefferson county simply wants
the Offices and nothing more We'll
keep an open eye in that direction in
| the future.
Just at present The Journal, has no
information at hand to show how many
counties will not come into the pri-
mary. Perhaps there are several.
We hope that even at this day, some
means may be devised whereby a1lsthe
counties will hold the primaries in
every election precinct.
The Democrats Of Florida have de-
clared unequivocally for primaries and
there should be no turning back at
this stage of the game. It Is specially
unfortunate that county like Jeffer.
son should decline to enter into tho
spirit Of democracy.

Judge w. B. Sheppard
And the Supreme Court.

Some mention has been made in the
public press and in private circles
about the possibility of the president
appointing Judge w. b. Sheppard, Of
this city. to a place on the bench of
the supreme court We do not know
that President Taft has ever seriously
considered Judge Sheppard and the
latter is in no sense a candidate for
Che position. But, in company with
the New York Press and other able
authority. The Journal would like to
say that in Judge Sheppard. the presi-
dent would flnd man who is a
learned lawyer and an able and con-
scientious jurist. His record since he
has been in his present position is
without flaw and his performance of
the duties of United States attorney
from this district. shows him to be a
man with the courage Of his convic.

To read TIE Pensacola papers Of

is a small politician.

Is rather an amiable gentleman and is

stunt that is pulled off when he is
present.
The Pensacola journal has never
said that he was a great man. So
far as we can remember. no citizen
of Pensacola ever said that the score
tary was a great man. On the other
hand this newspaper has never said
or believed that Mr.. Meyer was a
