begin building operations at once. Mr..
Tinker purchased here after having
travelled extensively throughout the

A FALLEN IDOL

Our friend, Claude L'Engle, candi-
date for congressman at large, and
editor and owner of Dixie, a delight.
fully peppery weekly publication at
Jacksonville, always insists that "if
it is right he is for it"
L'Engle is very positive in his
views, and always knows when a
thing is right or wrong; at least that
is the implication of his many caustic
articles against what he conceives to
be wrong.
When a man is right and knows
he's right, has no doubt about it, ex-
pediency cuts but little figure with
what he says or does.
Few men can hew to the line so cor
rectly as to be right all the time and
few men are willing to acknowledge
that they are deliberately following
the line of expediency while claiming
to be for thing because it is right.
But Claude is doing both. In an ar
ticle in the last Dixie, from which
quotations are made in another col
umn, he frankly states that it is right
for men who are holding official posi-
lions in the state to resign office be-
fore beginning a campaign for anoth-
er, higher up, and that they ought to
resign.
Claude says that is right, and he's
for it, But this time his rule works
to his personal discomfort, and he
isn't for it as much as reading Of
his headline would indicate.
In a column or two he tells why,
just this one time, you know, he is
not for thing because it is right. If
some of the present officers should re-
sign, Claude is afraid the appointees
in their places would not be exactly
to his liking, and so, for this one time
he is willing, nay anxious, that the
officers continue in their offices dur
ing the campaign, although he knows
that it is wrong to do so.
Is it possible that being a candidate
has made the only perfectly impecca
BILE newspaper man in the state
fudge a little on his principles? Has
our idol fallen?-Miami Herald.

SISTER ESTHER CARLOTTA AT
THE CONVENTION

Sister Esther Carlotta of st. Angus
tine, president of the Florida Division
of the United Daughters of the Con
federacy, became very prominent in
the convention of the Daughters held
in Richmond, Va, last week. The
Richmond Virginian of Saturday, in
noticing her as a delegate, said:
I'm reading the minutes several
matters evoked lengthy discussions,
and the convention grew so noisy at
times that business was suspended
until quiet was restored. Finally, Sis
ter Esther Carlotta of St. Augustine,
Fla, rising to a matter of personal
privilege, reminded the delegates that
they had elected their president gen
eral at their last convention, and that
it was their bounden duty and only
common civility that they maintain
her rulings and requests. Beseech-
ing them that, as ladies, they would
be quiet and orderly, Sister Carlotta
returned to her seat amid profound
silence.
'By an overwhelming vote, Wash
ington, D. c., was selected as the
meeting place of their annual conven-
ton next year The capital city of
the nation received a little more than
1900 votes, as against 266 cast for its
only competitor, st. Augustine, Fla.
"The claims of Washington were
presented by Mrs. G. d. Merwin, while
Sister Esther Carlotta presented the
invitation from her home city.
Although Sister Carlottas address
was declared to be the most eloquent
and impressive ever heard on the
floor of a U. D. C. convention, the is
sue was never in doubt from the
start, the sentiment among the dele
gates being that Washington would
be more suitable place than the
Florida city next year, in view of the
fact that several important move
ments now on foot need the impetus
of congressional backing and sup
port"
