RULE FOR PRIMARIES

Quite a number of our contempor-
aries suggest doing away with the sec
ond primary by providing for second
choice in the first one-that is, for
each voter to mark his ballot for not
only his first choice, but his second.
which could be done by allowing every
voter to put a cross mark on the right
side of the ticket for his next best can
didate
That would not only add immense
~ TO the work of counting the votes,
decide the matter than the present
method, as there is no more guarantee
that man would receive a majority
Of second choice votes than of first.
The proper thing to do is to observe
as a primary rule the law of general
election. John r. Galloway is the dem
ocratic candidate for sheriff. If, in the
100 votes, while his republican oppon-
ent receives 1900, and his socialist
competitor 300, he will be elected. al
though he will not receive a majority
of the votes cast.
This is plenty good enough for the
primary. If party, faction or follow
ing cannot put its man in on the first
round, it has no right to ask all the
people to take the trouble and expense
of a second contest
Let's have the plurality rule for pri-
maries, thereby attaining the same re-
suits with less trouble and expense.

SYMPATHY FOR SOVEREIGN DAME

Jacksonville. Fla. May 10. 1912.
Mr.. Carter H Dame. District Deputy
W. o. w. Ocala, Florida:
My dear Sovereign Dame: In behalf
of the sovereigns Of the jurisdiction Of
Florida. | take this opportunity to eX-
tend in their behalf. a few words Of
coincidence and sympathy in this sad
hour Of sorrow and bereavement. caus-
ed by the loss of your devoted life
companion I know my heart. but not
how to express it 10 you under these
circumstances. I feel that / am vOic-
ing the sentiment Of every WoOdman
in this jurisdiction when / say that We
all feel your loss. that your sorrow j.
ours. and that we would gladly take
the burden upon ourselves II II were
possible. Yet we know that there j
only one source of real hope and con
ISOLATION, and from conversations |
have had with you, l know you are in
full possession of that hope and have
anchored your hopes TO Gods prom
Uses for the only real comfort that can
illumine our hearts and homes, when
made desolate by such sad yisitations.
May the God of love and mercy temper
this afhiction to your heart and life
that it will prove a blessing in dis
guise, even though
The golden bowl has been broken
And the silver cord has been snapped
that bound your heart to another in the
most sacred ties of which the human
heart can conceive. Remember that
God, in his infinite wisdom, has dipped
his brush into the great sea of love
and has painted in letters of purple
and gold across your cloud of sorrow
the beautiful rainbow of his eternal
promise.
Please pardon this feeble attempt to
console and comfort one who has been
touched with the finger of grief We, l
could not refrain from the effort
With my heart full Of love and sym
pathy and my prayers for your COM
fort and consolation. I am,
Yours in Love, Honor and Remem-

CRYSTAL RIVER CLIPPINGS
News

Last Saturday Master John Willis
Fox and Miss Mary Willis went TO
Ocala from which point they will take
some side trips to some of Florida 5
beauty spots. John is great as a cav
alier and will doubtless see to it that
they have a pleasant time.
Miss Alice Kelly, the charming guest
of Mr.. and Mrs. James Holder, of Cit
ronelle, will return to WaycrOss. Ga,
Friday.
Mr.. George Hyde is not possessed of
his usual activity these days. While
he and Joe Williams were having a
friendly wrestling bout Mr. Hyde un-
fortunately wrenched his knee so Sc
verely as to necessitate a spell Of in
activity which must he irksome to one
of his active habits. At this writing he
is at Shell Island. where he is receiv-
ing the attention of DR.. Moon.
7 The largest tarpon yet caught in
Crystal River waters was the one cap
tured by Mr.. ]. +. Willis this week
This monster fish was over six feet
long. When stood on the tip OF lis
tail it was somewhat FaIStaffian and
Taftian in its build. Weighing 49,
pounds. That he was n fighter is evi-
denced by the fact that so faithful a
manipulation of reel and rod as J. T.
spent over five hours reducing him To
halter broke condition so he would
nibble at the gaff.

DR.. E. L. Stewart of Daytona, Fla,
one of the most prominent and we'll
known physicians in Florida, is now
located in Ocala, and is to be associat-
ed with DR.. McClane in his magnificent
practice. DR.. Stewart will make a spe-
cialty of eye, ear, nose and throat
work, and assist with other special
work in the McClane Medical and Sur
gical Institute. DR.. Stewart is well
and favorably known throughout the
state as an up-to-date, thorough and
efficient practitioner. having had some
twenty-five years experience in this
state and will draw a large clientage
to this Institution which is already most
favorably known. DR.. McClane was
compelled on account of his growing
practice to get assistance and he is to
be congratulated on obtaining the as
sistance Of DR. Stewart. We under
stand that this institute is to be en-
larged and soon as practicable a large
home built to accommodate out of
town patients and change the institu
ton into a large sanitarium. Dr. Stew
art was raised near Anthony but has
spent a number of years in practice
and has perfected himself by post
graduate courses for the above spe-
cialty of eye, ear, nose and throat We
welcome DR. Stewart to our city and
wish him success

We have adopted the Cash System
at our store. The laws of our State
protect the person who wants to beat
his grocer, and discriminate against
the merchant. Under this system the
good customers have to pay for the
debts of the bad ones. There are
number of people about the country
who beat the grocers, in spite of all
they can do. They put up a plausible
story and get credit and do not pay.
In the long run the good, steady pay
ing customer has to pay for these bad
debts, for they are an expense of the
business. 1t is, therefore fair to ALL to
sell only for cash We will do business,
in future on a strict cash basis. We
will be able to sell you groceries al
closer prices, for we will get pay for
all we sell. We appreciate the trade
of all our customers, and are doing this
to protect them as we'll as ourselves.
When you get accustomed to the new
system, we know you will like it.
Respectfully,
earn Thomas Company.

ALL LINE Up FOR UNDERWOOD

All Florida democrats should line up
for Underwood. It's the will Of a ma
jority of the democratic voters, and
what they say should go.
The Star opposed Underwood because
it didn't believe he could be elected, and
it doesn't approve Of his vote on the
Bristow amendment; all the same, it
realizes that he is good man, a splen-
did statesman and will make a presi-
dc Mt more to its liking than any re-
publican and some democrats.
1t is not worth while to dispute any
longer; the real contest is over for US
no matter who the nominee may be, he
will receive Florida's vote in the cleo
toral college. But for the moral effect.
which may influence few votes where
they are most needed, let all Wilson
pa pers in Florida Loyalty support Tn
derwood and set the Underwood pap
ers good example in case their fav-
orite is not nominated.
No matter what influence supports
Underwood's candidacy, and pays his
immense advertising bills, the people
voted for him at dictates of an entire
ly honorable sentiment; and their SEN
timent deserves the utmost respect.

the dust of DeLand from his feet.
Woods IS a genial fellow and will
doubtless make a success of the Eustis
Lake Region. The Lake Region was
founded some thirty years ago by
Hamilton Jay, the most artistic handler
OF the pen who ever graced an edi-
torial chair in Florida. Later, Jay
moved to Jacksonville, where he made
one long sweet dream of the Times
