The Campaign Joke.

zone of the biggest jokes in this
country" said Irwin Cobb, "recurs every
time there is a campaign. Ii is COM
monty known as The Pure Candidate,
and it is especially prevalent in reform
movements. To look at The Pure Can
didate you'dthin it hadn't been twenty
minutes since he escaped from memo
rial window. He wears the long trock
coat that's for purity and the white lawn
tie of conscious rectitude. He's so hon
est that it keeps breaking out on him
like prickly heat. He cares not for the
tawdry honorS and emolumentS of pub
lie office. Let others have if they will
the mere drosS, which is statesman S
name for money before he begins to get
it. His sole aim in life, his fondeSi
dream is TO serve the masses of the great
common people.
And the sheep headed populace
listens TO his song and is bewitched by
the sobs of his flute-like voice. 1t sees
only his Smile-not the yellow tail
feathers of the canary in the corners oi
it. Ii turns in and elects him. And he
doesn't begin breaking his ante-electior
pledges until one minute and thirty sec
onds after he's taken the oath of office
He ought to be recognized joke, but h'
isn't. He, or one of his family, is able
to repeat every two or four years, owing
to constitutional inlirmity which pre-
vents the public from remembering any
thing from one election TO another.

City COUNCIL BUYS
ITS OWN BONDS
In Amount of $1,000 and
Thereby Saves Interest
ExDense.

AT meeting of the city council latS
Tuesday night there were several bids
opened for the purchase of sewer pipe,
OF which tenders had been asked on
about 1000 feet. The lowest and best
bid was found TO be that of the Southern
Sewer Pipe Co. of Birmingham, Ala,
and the bid of this company was accept
ed at 81 $3.50 80.
On the petition of the Palatka Wo-
mans Club, the council ordered that an
additional Scavenger wagon be placed on
the streets under the direct supervision
of the executive department.
The board of cemetery trustees petit
ioned the council TO curtail by one,half
the acreage of Oak Hill cemetery. The
cemetery is too large to care for easily
and too expensive One half the ground
would be all the cemetery room needed,
and this could be cared for by the truS-
tees and the fences maintained in good
condition. This plan met the approval
of the council.
The board also decided TO buy the
remaining 81 900 of city bonds, needed
| for immediate use in paving.
DIR. +. S. Grill, chairman of the board
of bond trustees, said the bonds could
be sold easily, but in buying them the
city could save interest.
The city has plenty of money in the
treasury-too much, in the opinion of
many citizens, who have an idea that
there is no special pleasure in paying
city taxes that ii may be boarded in
| vaults

GRIFFIN LOT FOR
new POSTOFFICE.

The Secretary of the Treasury on
Monday sent to congress his recommen-
dations for appropriations for various
public buildings authorized by congress
at the session last winter These ap,
propriationS amount to S5,OOO,O ,OOO, and
this amount will be included in the

the Secretary of the Treasury, together
with the amounts needed for sites:

tow, $4,000.
There were several lots rendered by
Palatka property owners, all OF them
being under s., 900 save one-the Griffin
lot on lower Lemon street. A part OF
this lot was offered to the government
for 81, 900, and because the Secretary
of the Treasury has asked for thai
amount for purposes of site, 1t is there'
fore presumed that the government OF
iicials have recommended the purchase
of site on the Griffin lot.
This will leave So, 900 for the cree
ton of the building.

A northern lady who has a home on
DraytonJ Island, while waiting for
the steamer to leave for that place
one day last week, went into Capt.
r. ]. Adams office. The lady knew
the captain, but the captain failed TO
recognize the lady. Stepping up TO him
she cnquired -
Captain, have you got that money,
yeti" ,
81 guess so, what money!" responded
the always affable captain.
"Why, the money on account OF that
Drayton Island dock" answered the
visitor
ooh, yes; its here in the safe await
ing the owner" said the captain, who
now recognized his visitor.
Several years ago there was quite a
sum of money paid TO the captain for
damage to a dock at Drayton Island. He
wanted to turn il over to the owner OF
the dock, but as separate parties claimed
ownership, Capt. Adams couldn't know
who to pay it TO. The parties were sat
isfied to leave the money CSome $50 or
500 in the custody of the captain, and
who explained TO the lady that if she
would bring him an order signed by the
other claimant he would pay it 10 her.
COR" said he, "if you will give me an
order for it, | will pay it 10 the other
claimant" He further explained that
the money was not drawing "A per cent
interest, and that better investment
might be found.
SFunny things happen here" said
Capt. Adams, as he was telling the News
of the incident.
"a dozen years or more ago negro
stepped into the office and asked me to
keep S. for him. put it in an envelope
in the safe and gave him a receipt. The
negro has never been after the money.

Old HOME ISN'T
Quite the SAME
Former Palatkans Visit City
After an Absence of 81
YEARS

AT the Saratoga Hotel on Monday
night were registered Mrs. Francis
Hincks and her son, Mr.. X. b. Hincks
of New York, Mrs. L. Hunt-Smith and
her son, Mr. E. P. Hunt-Smith Of New
York. and Rev. H. H. P. Roche, for the
past wear rector of the Episcopal church
at DeLand, and brother OF MeSdameS
Hincks and Hunt-Smith.
Mesdames Hincks and Hunt-Smith,
and Rev. H. H.iP. Roche are the daugh-
ters and son of Rev. Robert t. Roche, ID.
D., who was rector of St. Mark church in
this city from July 1876 to April 1877,
when the family returned to Canada,
where DR.. Roche died.
Older members of ST. Marks parish
will remember Mrs. Hincks best as
Miss Millie Roche, and Mrs. Hunt Smith
as Miss Mary Louisa. Rev. ii. II. r.
Roche in those days was known as Hib-
bard Roche, young man full of young
life and mischief. In fact those who re-
member the young people OF the rec
tors family at all, remember them as a
pretty lively set of young people who
took leading part in the social events
of that day.
Both the young ladies were married
at the church during their fathers in
cumbency of the rectorate.
AT the marriage of Miss Mary Louisa
Roche to Elliott Hunt-Smilh OF MuSca
tine, Iowa, Rev. r. H. Weller, the then
rector of ST. Johns church, Jackson
Vile, officiated.
Miss Cecilia Millicent Roche was
married on Tuesday, April 3Oth, 1878

father of the bride before congrega
ton which completely filled the church
cdifice.
These women who went out from
Palatka as young brides in the 7OS, made
their first return visit this week, each
accompanied by son. These young
men and cousins are each any where
from 2S to 80 years of age. 1t was iheiE

mothers. 60,
During their shot stay they called on
several of their friends OF the old time
notably Mrs. Hickman and the MeSdames
Kennerly and Collins, Mr.. J. II. Haugh
ton and S. j. Kennerly.
Palatka did not look quite the same
to them, though there has been. but
slight change in the appearance OF 81
Marks church. 1t was during Dr.
Roche's ministry that the church tower
was moved from the west to the easl
front corner and improved.

JOHNSON PEOPLE
GETTING WEARY
White-Martin Feud, Now in its
Second Year, has Made
'Em Tired

Clifford Martin of Johnson Station
was before Judge Coke on Tuesday and
was put under bond of $500 for his ap-
pearance in the County Judges court
next Monday, when he will be obliged
TO show cause why he should not give a
peace bond, affidavit for which was
sworn out by Rev. w. FL. Green, an old
and retired clergyman OF Johnson
Martin was up before Judge Wimberly
of lnterlachen ON the 9TH inst. on the
charge of assault and battery. 1t was
charged that he had struck Rev. Mr..
Green, who is a man IS years OF age
and feeble. Mr.. Green is also man of
peace. This case against Martin at
Interlachen resulted in his being fined.
Martin then made affidavits asking for
peace bond from Rev. w. H. Green
and Richard White, the latter his ancient
enemy-if year of steady quarreling
with a man may be called ancient. This
case also came before Judge Wimberly
last Saturday, but was transferred 10
Judge Coxe's court on motion of John
| L. Marshall, attorney for Green. When
the case came before Judge Coke on
Tuesday Martins attorney, Judge E. n.
| OdluOul, dSkGu thai lnc CdoCo NC ulo'
missed, which was done.
Then it was that Rev. Mr.. Green
asked for the placing of Martin under a
peace bond. This is the case TO be
heard next Monday.
The Martin-White imbroglio started
carly last year. 1t seems to have been
caused by the reputed cutting by Martin
of fence which was on Whites land
but which it was claimed shut out an an
Cient neighborhood road, but road
that had never been officially declared
Out of this act on the part of Martin
has grown innumerable law suits anC
counter suits, and the contributions o.
these men TO the legal fraternity in Pa
Iatka and to pay the costs in court pro
ceedingS have been enormous.
For a time the sentiment among the
people at Johnson was divided; they
took some interest in the various suits
then there was indifference, and ther
came that tired feeling"
Today Clifford Martin is short of any
old friends he may have had because O
his brutal attack on the aged and enfee
bled Rev. Mr.. Green.
Richard White is an EngliShman ant
is well-to.do. He has frequently offici
ated at church services, and 10 all ap
pcaranceS is a modest, well-bchaved ant
genial gentleman. Those who know
him best say he has simply stood for his
rights. But that he does not like Martin
is apparent and the town of johnson
doesn't seem big enough for them both
Clifford Martin is also of genteel ap
pearance, and man of evident culture
which inheritance has been allowed &c
go 10 seed during his scraps with White
and all who show sympathy for his side
1t is thought by those converSant with
the troubles that the long chain of law
suits will not end with the disposition
of the case called for next Monday, bu
that others will develop and that the
courts will continue to derive steady
revenue from the beligerants.
