AS OTHERS SEE IT

Policeman Pickles Of Virginia
has been suspended from the SER
vice for ten days because he drew
a revolver to stop an auto which
was exceeding the speed limit.
The machine happened to contain
Governor Eberhart who was
speeding to make a train. That
good policeman should be reward
ed instead of censured for doing
his duty. We like to see men
with the courage to call down the
lawbreakers in high places in
stead Of jumping onto the little
offender every time. If President
Taft or King George ever happen
to break the law in Virginia or
any other Minnesota town we
hope they will be dealt with just
the same as though it was Bill
Jones or John Smith. We are
ashamed of the authorities of Vir
ginia for their unjust treatment oil

his statements that ASsemblymen Brack-

cies last year, and complete domination
of the democratic state convention here
yesterday We're among the feats which
Gov. Woodrow Wilson performed as a
member of the convention.
He did more than this. for the plat
form was so wOrded that even James
r. Nugent, the Wilson arch enemy in
politics. could find no fault with it and
the onslaught of the Essex nominees did
not materialize.
Without any assumption of the airs of
the old-time boss, the governor swayed
the convention to his way of thinking
and did SO with a show of fairness which
silenced all objections
The convention, under the provisions
or the Geran election law, was made
up OF seventy-siX men, Gov. Wilson, the
democratic hold-over state senator's and
the democratic candidates for the senate
and for the assembly
The platform adopted was eulogistic

TO the convention prevented the adoption
of resolution indorSing him for the
democratic presidential nomination next

Governor Heads Committee.
The governor was chairman of the COM
mittee on resolutions. and practically all
of the work of the convention was ham
died by this committee. which was in
session for three hours discussing the
various planks proposed.
When the platform had been adopted
Assemblyman Egan of Hudson county
offered a resolution pledging the support
of the convention to Gov. Wilson for the
presidency. The governor was on his
feet in an instant and moved that the
resolution be laid on the table. In doing
this he argued that it was contrary tOl
the spirit of the Geran election law for
a state convention to indorse anybOdy's
candidacy.
The indication of a choice for the presi-
dency. the governor said, was vested by
the Geran law in the people through the
election of delegates to the national con-
vention. and this, he said. is where the
matter should be permitted't to rest. After
the governors talk the convention
adopted his motion to lay the matter on
the table
Just before the convention adjourned
Assemblyman Bracken of Essex county
rose to a question of privilege and stated
that Gov Wilson in a speech made in
Essex county last month had declared
that Mr. Bracken and Assemblyman Shall
voy had not supported the governors
policies in last winters legislature. Mr..
Bracken said that the records would
show that neither he nor Mr.. Shalvoy
had voted against any of the governors
measures, and he called upon the gov /!
ernor to withdraw his accusation
Nothing to Retract.
Gov Wilson replied by saying he was
sorry Mr. Bracken had made il necessary
for him to say anything at this time,
but he had nothing to retract. He said
there were other ways OF opposing legis-
lation besides voting in the negative, ana
that he knew whereof he spoke as 10

The governor was frequently cneereo
during the proceedings OF the conven-

n,ittee and adopted by the convention
be.:.rs with these words: we, the
democrats of New Jersey, in conVen-
ton assembled. indorse the able and
brilliant administration of Gov. Wood

prevail of the progressive legislation

The platform sets forth certain prOpC-

handed reform in the system OF

The second proposition advocated
change in the system of taxation in

Harmony Among Republicans.

pany's Big Plant Always
BUSY.

Few business enterprises inaugurated
in Palatka in the past few years have
made such rapid and substantial growth
as the Palatka Auto and Supply Com
pany, now but little mere than a year
old. The business began in one store
room of the Grill building on Second
street, soon added a second, and then
there was constructed for the company
a great room in rear of both for ma
chine shop.
The shop now employs large force
under the management of Messrs. Ben
bow and Barnett, and in addition has a
big store room for the sale of gas motors,
all kinds of Automobile and motor boat
supplies.
The company's garage business has
steadily grown with the increase of the
automobile industry in the county and
state, and this is an important feature
OF the business. Machines come from
all parts of this county and section for
repair work.
The company is agent for the Mitchell,
Oakland and Buick machines, and al
ways has on hand one or more of the
latest models of each.
Experts in auto repairing are sent TO
points in the state when required.
The business has certainly made a
wonderful growth and the end is moi
yet AT the present pace the company
will soon have to make further enlarge.

PALATKA'S NEW
ORPHEUM THEATER
VIII Open Next Tuesday Night
in Completed Shape.
Has Seating Capacity of 900 ExcIu-
sive of Gallery-Immense Stage.

sive of Callery-Immense Stage.
Louis Kalbfield is happy, and he has
the right to be. He has come TO the
font through great tribulation and by
his ability TO leap obstacles that have
been chucked in his pathway.
Kalblield is a theatrical man by inheri-
tance and inclination. He knows the
business from A to lizard, and his ac-
quaintanceship with footlight favorites
is extensive.
In Palatka he was for time manager
of the Howell. Then he went into the
hotel business. He fed people good but
didn't make any money, so quit.
Last summer he conceived the idea
of starting the Orpheum. He began in
small way with moving pictures; then
he added vaudeville, and any other old
thing that was calculated to please the
people in legitimate way.
He proSpered but kept putting alll the
money he could make into betterments
for the Orpheum.
The Orpheum is now nearly COM
pleted. 1t has bold and inviting, as
we'll as ornamental front. Ii looks well
in the day light, hut oh! you electrically
lighted front.
PasSerS on Lemon street at night are
caught by the charm of this pretty dis.
play.
The interior is plain. Ornaments
will keep TO later day.
But the stage is immense; show peo
pie will like it.
Said Mr.. Kalbfield to the News yes,
terday:
"The Orpheum will be opened regu-
larly as a play house next Tuesday night
by the production of Clyde Fitch's
clever comedy, "The Blue Mouse," pre-
sented by the Schubcrts.
"That is the biggest kind of an attrac
ton for an opening night. The TACT
that ii is presented under the auspices ol
the Schuberts is sufficient guarantee oil
its excellence.
"The company is big one, having
more than Is people of high rank in the
theatrical world. The play is one that
has won popular applause not only in
Europe, but in all the dramatic centers
of the United States. From Palatka the
company goes to Jacksonville. II
brings its own scenery by the car load.
"The Orpheum will have its own new
seats in place and the stage will be in
complete readiness for the most artistic
rendering of the play.
Nothing better will be in Palatka this
year.
''From now on the Orpheum will be
open every night, except Sunday, in the
year. When we haven't big, high
class company TO offer the people, we
will have something cheaper and good
to offer at our popular 5 and 10 cent
prices. The Orpheum is here TO please
and TO please all classes by the produc
ton of decent and legitimate amuSe

on Tuesday evening, before an audience
which packed, the hall AsSistingisin
the amusing and dramatic complications
were three young men who acted their
roles with as much spirit as did the
"emancipated" ones. In addition TO
the Snappy little comedy, the audience
was entertained by excellent music.
The opening overture Loves Dream

Erma Wylie, who later gave as a solo a
charming little melody, Dreaming of
You" This song which seems espe-
cially adapted to Miss Wylie's clear So
prano, is new composition by Robert
T. Riddell, who is a guest of Mrs. M. v.
Millard this winter. The solo "Out on
the Deep" sung by Miss Alma DeTilla,
was beautifully given. The young peo.
pie deserve much praise for their good
work, and are TO be congratulated on
their success. The proceeds of the en-
tertainment, approximately thirty dollars,
will be given to the V. l. S. and will
probably be expended in furthering the
good work being done in the cemetery,
