Christian Endeavor Convention.

The twenty-third State Convention
met at ST. Petersburg, May 5, 1911, and
was decided success, no pains being
spared by President Linn and other local
workers TO make il good.
Sessions were held in the Congrega.
tional church until Sunday afternoon
there was a nice Model intermediate
meeting and chalk talk, in the Christian
church. The closing service Sunday
evening was held in the Northern Mctho.
dist church, pleasing climax of fellow
ship because it has been several years
since a State Convention was invited to
Methodist church by its pastor and
leaders.
The principal address Friday evening
was by Rev. E. W. Elliott, of Tampa
who took for his theme, "The Trans
figured Task" He showed in strong,
helpful words the need of definite pur'
pose in work, in prayer and all things
pertaining 10 the Christian life OF con
Secration and faithful service to God and
lelIow-man. After this address as sew
cral other times in the convention, 9
Chautauqua salute was given expressing

What State Editors are
Saying.
Outlaw but don't Harass-

|
Whenever the question is SquarelS
presented again, am ready for the
fight to keep whiskey from being solo
in Florida. am ready to sacrifice my
personal convenience, feeling, inclina
ton and pleasure in the interest OF those
whom whiskey hurts.
am against most of the bills that are
now pending in the legislature againS
the whiskey traffic. mean the anti
screen bills, the early closing bills, the
no shipment bills and the other twenty
seven varieties of bills to indirectly do q
thing TO stop the whiSkey traffic, which
the people of Florida directly voted thai
they did not want 10 stop.
Sometimes permit myself 10 use one
of the stereotyped expressions of the
FLUTES. The occasion is rare, but as
said before, it sometimes comes, so |
will say that those DRASTIC" meas
ures against the whiSkey traffic should
not pass the legislature.
This traffic should be regulated, but
those who engage in it at the sanction
of the people of Florida directly ex-
pressed at the ballot box should not be
prosecuted and harassed. They should
be put out of business if the majority of
the white people SO determine, but it
should be done in square, stand-up,
direct fight.
Let the legislature pass bill TO re-
submit this question TO the people every
two years or every year, and | will do
all that can against the liquor traffic.
Ii cannot come too often for me. The
indirect way of doing il savors too much
of bushwhacking TO suit my American
blood and my Southern training

Representatives Middleton and Nc,
Kenzie both voted against the bill di-
recting that statue of DR.. John Gorrie,
the inventor of the process for making
artificial ice, be placed in one of the
Florida inches in the national slatuary
hall at Washington. Why they should
entertain this GOODNESS for the original
ice man is not easy 10 understand. Per
hapS some of Gorrie'S successors in the
ice business have ''Stung" the gentle
men from Putnam and they wanted TO
get even with class of men who max e
virtue of charging exorbitant prices for
this Florida necessity. Or il may be
that they felt that the occupancy of a
niche in the hall of fame at Washington
is more in the nature of a permanent po-
litical job calling for a close mouthed
but impressive appearing StateSman-one
who had done time at Tallahassee.
Anyway they both voted against recog-
nizing this great inventor of what has
proved world wide blessing to man
kind, man whom any nation or state
would be proud TO point TO as a citizen.
The statue of DR.. John Gorrie, however,
will represent Florida in the National
Hall of Fame. The House has dccreed
il by vote of 81 TO 10.

Made Dumas Retract.

The elder Dumas was once sued for
stating in one of his novels, ia
Route de Varennes," that the capture
of Louis XVI. and Marie Antoinette
at Varennes by the revolutionaries was
due to the action of the Chevalier de
Prefontaine in shutting the door of his
house on the fugitives.
A grandson of the chevalier consid
cred this an aspersiOn on his ances-
tors chivaIry and proved in court that
the statement was untrue. An order
was issued compelling Dumas publish
er to call in all copies of the novel and
to issue within one month a fresh edi-
ton with note that the Chevalier de
PrefOntaine placed his house at the
disposal of the royal fugitives.

Representative Wall was most explicit
in his testimony before the bribery in
vestigating committee of the house. 1t
appears that after opening the "tele-
gram" and showing the contents TO
Senator Baker, his movements were de-
lberate and free from excitement, ex.
cept in just one case after supper, and
that was when he refused TO talk with
Mr.. Reeves, and made rush for the
Capitol basement. This action, how.
ever, the investigating committee is
agreed, was quite proper under the cir.
cumstances as explained by MIR. Wall.

The statement of the Jacksonville Me
tropoliS that John w. WalSon'S candi.
dacy for Governor was Matched at Tai
lahaSSee by little Coterie of politicians
headed by Peter o. Knight of Tampa, is
a sample of disreputable journalism I'M
paralleled in Florida. The Metropolis
knew that the coupling OF Peter o.
Knights name with the announcement
of any candidate would work inCalCula-
bic injury TO that candidates chances.
Mr.. Knight has long served as a corpo-
ration lobbieSt and has been SO eXten-
sively advertised as such that his influ-
ence in that questionable calling has be-
come nil. With this knowledge the
Metropolis was culpably unfair in its
statement-a statement made out OF
whole cloth of its own weaving. The
Metropolis knew, or should have known
before making the statement it did, that
MIR. Peter o. Knight did not make his ap
pearance in Tallahassee until Mr.. Wat.
sons announcement had been made
public more than week. Mr. Knight,
therefore, could not have been present
TO advise such an announcement, Mr..
Watson told the editor of the PalaIka
News of his purpose TO be a candidate
for Governor of Florida, at the Leon
Hotel, Tallahassee, on Wednesday
morning, April 10Th. Mr.. Carter, the
editor OF the Metropolis, was in ITALIA,
hassee at that time. He knows, or
should have known, that at that time
Mr.. Peter o. Knight had not put in an
appearance at Tallahassee, nor did he
do so until week later, by which time
the whole state was discussing John
Watson's candidacy. The Palatka News
is not committed to Mr., Watson, but il
is committed to the practice of treat
ing all candidates or possible candidates
OF its own party fairly.

The House of Representatives on
Monday passed Senator Cones measure
which provides for state uniformity of
school text books, and prohibits a
change of books for 5 years after its
adoption. Under the provision of this
new school book law no county contract
need be broken, but the county school
boards are forbidden TO enter into any
new contracts. For some reason never
satisfactorily explained, this measure has
been fought by the various county
school boards of the state, but that there
was an undoubted demand for state uni
formity on the part of the people, there
can be no question. The House passed
the measure by vote of S. TO 5.

A Winning Slogan :

The Tribune is not acquainted with
]. Z. Wood, the Live Oak gentleman,
who has announced his candidacy for
State Superintendent of Public InStruc.
ton. He has been Superintendent OF
Public Instruction of Suwanee county
for eight years and this would argue that
he "knowS the job"
But The Tribune can say this much
about Mr.. Woods candidacy.
If he makes State uniformity of text,
books his campaign cry and pledge, as
he announces he will do, and other as,
pirantS for the office do not get on the
same platform as Solidly and as strongly
as he does, Mr.. Wood is going to be
swept into the office with an over,
whelming tide of popular sentiment
And this all the more strongly if the
present Legislature should follow in the
pathway of its predecessors and refuse
10 give the people of Florida the bene.
fits of State uniformity law. Tampa

The Supreme Court of the United
States on Monday handed down the
long looked for decision in the Standard
Oil case. By this decision the Standard
Oil Company of New Jersey and its
nineteen subsidiary corporations were
declared TO be a conspiracy and combi-
nation in restraint of trade, and as mo.
nopolizing interstate commerce in VIC
lation of the Sherman antitrust law.
The dissolution OF the combination was
ordered TO take place within six months.
The opinion was by Chief Justice White
and was concurred in unanimously by
the associate justices. Thus has the
highest court in the land given judicial
sanction TO an opionion unanimously
held by the people for many years. 1t
is not thought that the decision will
work any hardship TO members of the
corporation by depriving them of any
of the necessities of life.

An Elk Statesman's Reflections

The misfortune in our Legislative
bodies is we have too few statesmen and
too many politicians. They hesitate
often to do their duty because they fear
that ii will lose them votes at some fu-
ture election. The real statesman will
vote for just measure without thinking
about the cost. But unfortunately we
have too few of such men in public life.
People seem TO be unable to discriminate
between the demagogue and the real
man. The justice OF cause and not the
influence OF the one who presents il
should govern lawmaker.-Fort Laud-
