QUICK TO CRITICIZE OUR YOUNG
SENATOR

The first thing that Senator Bryan
did after his arrival in Washington
was to cast his vote for Senator Mar
tin of Virginia as democratic leader
of the senate. Martin was said to be
the Corporation candidate" Senator
Bryan has been elected for six years.
Senator Fletcher also voted for Mar
tin-but Fletcher always wa sa free
lance and has never posed as a
friend of the pee-pul." Martin may
be all right-and we suppose he was,
or Fletcher would not have voted for
him-but Bryan's vote kinder shows
how soon they lose the venom in their
eyes after they get their jobs from the
people. This is not a criticism of
Senator Bryan-'tis only a statement
Of strange fact, a little history written
as it takes place.-DeLand News.

FORT MEADE EDITOR GIVEN
HoRSEWHlPPINc

A special from Fort Meade to the
Tampa Times, under date of April 20
says that Fort Meade folks were con-
siderably excited Tuesday night over
the horsewhipping of Editor Ernest B
Simmons of the Fort Meade Leader by
w. H. Johnson of Barlow.
The horsewhipping took place al
most directly in front of the postoffice
on Main street, about Z O'Clock in the
evening. Mr.. Simmons was walking
down the street when Mr.. Johnson ap-
preached him and began laying on
heartily with COW whip. The editor,
who says he was very much taken by
surprise, did not retaliate, friends
stopping the affair Mr.. Johnson re-
turned to Barlow.
Mr.. Simmons said that he had not
decided just what he would do, but
he understood that warrants would be
taken out against Johnson for violat-
ing the city ordinance against disor-
derby conduct.
The affair arose out of criticism
which Editor Simmons made of the
recent conviction Of former Tax Col
lector w. O. Jordan and former Coun-
ty Superintendent of Schools S. S.
Niblick of Barlow, both of whom were
found to be short in their accounts.
In Niblick's case sentence was sus-
pended, and in Jordans case a fine
of $500 was imposed. The editor stat
ed in his paper that these men had
gotten off too lightly, and alleged fur
Their that when w. H. Johnson was in
office some twelve years ago, or there
abouts, he had used part of the coun-
tvs funds in his own business and
had not been punished. This was fol-
lowed by a letter from Johnson, pub
lished in a Barlow paper, which let
ter Simmons reproduced in his own
paper. whit further comment.

hands, but luckily escaped without
any serious injury The accident Gre

few moments, and everybody was re-
lieved that the accident was no worse
and Engineer Larsen was warmly con-
graduated on his excellent manner of
handling his train when danger
threatened those under his care.

REASONS FOR TRADING AT HOME
A Loyal Spirited Man of Des Moines
Proposes an Interesting Home
Trade Greed

In a recent issue of the Des Moines
Register and Leader the commercial
page published the creed of one loyal
spirited booster, who gives good rea-
sons why one should support the home
merchant as follows:
l buy at home
Because my interests are here.
Because the. community that is good
enough for me to live in is good
enough for me to buy in.
Because 1 believe in transacting
business with my friends.
Because I want to see the goods.
Because 1 want to get what 7 buy
when I pay for it.
Because my home dealer carries"
me when I.run short.
Because every dollar I spend at
home stays at home and works for the
welfare of Des Moines.
Because the man I buy from stands
back of the goods.
Because I sell what I produce here
at home.
Because the man buy from pays
his part of the town. county and state
taxes.
Because the man buy from gives
value received always.
Because the man I buy from helps
support my school. my church, my
lodge, my home.
Because when i'll luck. misfortune or
bereavement comes, the man I buy
from is here with the kindly greeting
his words of cheer and his pocketbook,
if need be.
Here I live and here buy.

WOULDN'T BETRAY CONFIDENCE

A Georgia reporter who refused to
disclose the source of information Civ
en- him in confidence was sent to Jail
by the trial court for contempt, and
the highest court of the state has up
held the decision. This seems to be
discrimination against the newspaper
men. Priests, lawyers and doctors are
protected. "a any rate we admire
the spirit of the reporter in going to
jail before he would betray confidence.
OF such timber are the best newspaper
men made.-Orlando Reporters Star.

MAY

Up comes May from the southland fair
With her smiling face and sunny hair
Her perfumed breath on the zephyrs
blown
Declare that winter at last has flown
The bluebells and the violets vie
In choosing tintS from her azure sky
Fill up their cups from her golden sun
Sweet scented roses. with buds un-
born,
Blush with the tint of her dewy morn
And cowslip and fern in shady nook.
Are mirrored back from her pebbly
brook.
The daisy and lily and columbine
All bear the touch of a life divine,
And sweet-eyed pansies all trembling
lie
Meath fairy tread of the butterfly.
The rushes bloom near the waters
Primroses lean from the verdant
The tall magnolias, the bay, the palm.
Bend lowly To catch the breeze's balm.
The gauzy bee. with it's honeyed peak,
Feasts on the clover's love- tinted
cheek.
And sunbeams have kissed the sleep
ing grass
Which springs into beauty as we pass.
The sweet birds sing and woodlands
throng
With Joyous echoes of mirth and song,
And nature chimes out a roundelay
Announcing the birth of charming
May.

1t is conceded that there is no mon
ey to be made out of political office
yet there are many men-poor men at
that-who are continually striving for
political preferment. A few days ago
a justice of the supreme court of New
York resigned his position on the
bench to accept a seat in the United
States senate. His former position
paid salary of $4,000 a year. In
Florida there is gentleman who
swore that he paid out $4,000 to Sc
cure an office, yet he was defeated
with the office apparently close enough
to touch whit his hand. But man is
made up of contraries. Often he
claims that the holding of office gives
poor returns for the money expended
and the consequent mental worries
that afflict him when he has reached
the goal of his ambitions, yet after
this confession he reaches for the
fruit that he should shun as he would
