The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1912-10-12

The headquarters of the Demo
c.atie national committee has sent
OUT a call for additional funds. The
committeeman for Florida has re-
critcd !. lattcr which has been pub
lishpd iii which the plan for rails
inc The funds necessary is set forth.
The plan in brief is 10 find five thou
sand men who will give one hum
drpd dollars each. The Florida COM
mitteeman is asked if he will not
recommend the names of five men
who will give hundred dollars
each It is broadly intimated in this
letter that the five who give up the
hundred each will be remembered
when the Democrats come into pow
er-Kissimmee Gazette.
But it is very sure that Woodrow
Wilson is no party to any such in
timation and that he would disap-
prove instantly and Indignantly any
plain to raise campaign money which
would lay him as president under the
most remotely implied obligation TO
remember" the donors. If Mr.. Will
son is elected he will go to the
White House without having made
the promise OF patronage or reward
&c any man absolutely unrram-
mellcd by prediction obligations.
He has said as much and W all be-
llcve him.

DON'T FAIL TO SUPPORT
SCHOOL TAX AMENDMENT

The Tampa Tribune earnestly adj
rl>ea the voters of the State to sup
port the proposed school tax amend
mont to the constitution, and the
advice is certainly good Even
though under the vcrbiage OF that
amendment il may be difficult to Sc
cure an issue of bonds for school
purposes in the special tax districts
sought to be created it will not be
impossible, the chief trouble being
to get out a full vote in such bond
elections so that there may be a ma
jol!ty Of the qualified voters who
are trcchOldcrs found supporting the
bond issues.
This is very much better than no
opportunity at all to secure mean:
for improving our school system, and
with the amendment once adopted
su,ll vigorous appeals can BE- made
10 the voters in the bond election
called under it that ii will be prac.
ticable in many if no; I'll cases tc
poll the majority required by Tho
amendment. 1t is not possible tt

Now that Judge Malone of the
Second circuit has granted the writ
of Injunction sought by Governor
Gilchrist in his suit to test tho va
lidty of the initiative and rcferen-
DUN amendment, further discussion
o; the matter by the press will serve
no good purpose. The issue will be
soon and finally adjudicated by the
Supreme Court and then we will
know whether or not the amend
ment will so to the people. If initi-
alive and referendum is mere fail
in legislation IL will inevitably run
its course and go to the discard in
due time; but if, as we believe, it
is but giving reality to the theory
of government by the people and is
a reform in governmental processes
which has come to say, an adverse

iii Health Cause Of Suicide.

Despondent over i'll health, Frank J..
Ruse, tenant on the farm of Mr.. d.
g. Taylor, on the Clay & Kiser pike,
near this city. committed suicide about
nine o'clock Wednesday morning by
slashing his throat with razor and
| when that weapon failed to produce
death he fired a bullet into his own
brain from SO calibre revolver.
| Rose has been long sufferer from
heart disease and has been the sub
ject of frequent attacks. For some
time ne has had the appearance of be-
ing depressed, and this is the only as
signed cause for his rash act. After
| iufiicting the wounds Rose fingered in
! life until two o'clock Wednesday after
noon when he died
The body was found in a cow shed
near the cottage where he lived by his
wife, where she went upon hearing the
report of the revolver. Her screams
attracted several men who were strip
| ping tobacco in barn On an adjoining
farm, and who FASTENED to the scene to
find Mrs. Rose, grief-stricken, bending
| over the body of her unfortunate nus
band.
Beside him were found the weapons
| of his destruction and pathetic note,
asking that the members of his family
be kind to his wife and baby and stat
ed that he was not responsible for the
rash act he was about to commit.
Two weeks ago he wrote a note to
his brtherin-law, Mr.. George Wagon
er, and on the day before ne took his
life to MIR. Waggone- was addressed
the following:
Mr.. Waggoner:
Dear Brother Il have worried my
life away. Please do not think Lucy
is the cause of this; she is not. Be
kind to her and Clay You take charge
Of everything here and be good to my
wife and baby for love both of them
dearly.
F. ]. ROSE.

Miss Maley is the fourth speaker on
the Socialist Lyceum course. Whether
or not you agree with the things she has
to say, you should hear her, because she
is one of the most eloquent and enter
tanning representatives of the great So
cialist movement Miss Maley has a
university education, broad outlook on
life, and her work is refined and pol
ished by years of experience as public
speaker.
As wage-earner and business woman
in the industrial world she has come
into intimate contact with the problems
which confront us all, and as a teacher
she has developed the ability to discuss
and explain those problems in a most
entertaining manner. Do not miss this
popular lecture upon subject which is
of vital concern to every person who
pays his way in the world.

BELLINGHAM DEPARTMENT
THE SOCIAL SIDE.

Local Bcllngham North last spring
decided to try to bring the public in
closer touch with our organization by a
series of social functions.
It almost seemed by the way people
held aloof from us that they regarded
us "a some sort of monstrosity, prob
ably wearing horns, or some other nat
ural weapons of an aggressive nature,
or, at least, as rather dangerous luna
tics.
But when we announced from the ros
trrm and the public press that, on
certain evening we would give a short
program to be followed by dancing and
supper the public began TO sit up and
take notice"
Our first social was we'll attended and
was decided success, both socially and
financially.
Our program consisted of songs, reel
tations and n short talk by one of the
comrades on the aims and objects of So
cialism.
At first we charged no admission fee
but took a collection which more than
served to cover expenses.
But our socials became so popular that
the hall was oyercrowded and we were
forced to charge admission at the door
and now we have to close the door at
about 1880 and refuse admittance to
dozens of persons we would gladly well
come if we had a larger hall, which we
hope to have in the near future.
But even under these restrictions we
clear from five to thirteen dollars ON
every dance with the small admission
fee of 20 cents for gentlemen and ladies
free.
These social affairs have resulted in
bringing many new members into the
local and establishing a feeling of kind
illness between the members and those
on the outside especially the labor un-
ions, many of whom have joined our or
ganization and work with us for the
coming cooperative commonwealth.
Our male comrades give the women
all the credit for the improved order of
things, but we realize that, without their
hearty support and cooperation we
could have done nothing.
But it is nevertheless a fact that
where the women of a community work
to build up a local the building up pro
cess will take a boom forthwith. | ad
wise all locals to try it. Yours,
ELSIE COLE WILCOX.
