In the newspaper advertising of
one of the candidates for state super
intendent appears the followin state
ment:
Mr.. RusseIPs Free Text Books
Free is good! But how will
free books for the 104,S77 negro
children be provided? (See page
1872, last School Report for num-
Der of negro children.)
Why, we white tax payers will
have to supply them, just as we
are now burdened with the ne
gro's education. And, believe me,
if the negro can according to
law get mis- books free-,he will
be on hand.
Page 1872, last school report for
number of negro school children
does not contain a statement of the
present number of negro school chill
dren in Florida The statement cited
says: School population C to 21)
estimated from Florida census of
1905, white, 1878; negro, 1O4,S77."
The writer was quoting from an esti-
mate only of the negro school popula-
ton supposed to have been in Flor
ida SEVEN YEARS AGO. Don't be
fooled.
The report above referred to says
on page 43S: School population C to
2D from Florida census of 1910,
white, 125,343 negro, 86,1S7."
These totals show overwhelmingly
in favor of the free text book system
for the white children of Florida.
Give every white child a chance.
In only nine counties does the ne
gro school population exceed the
white in numbers. The figures are:
White, 29,5S9; negro, 44,460. Page
43S.
In 3S counties (Pinellas is counted
with Hillsboro) the white school pop
ulation exceeds the negro. The fig
ures are, white, 95,754; negro, 41,727,
which show 54,027 more white than
negro children. Shall this multitude
of white children be deprived of he
many benefits and advantages and
their parents the great economy and
money saving of the free book sys-
tenn? We say, not. Give every white
child a chance.
What what shall be done for white
children in the counties where ne
groes outnumber them? For their
protection and for the protection of
all, we are in favor of the enactment
of law that will invest the county

ANTLTUBERcuLosIs CAMPAIGN

Publicity in newspapers and mag
azines to the amount of 100000
inches year on tuberculosis and its
prevention is being given by the
press of the United States, accord
ing to an estimate issued recently by
The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuberculo-
sis.
If all the publicity on tuberculosis
given by the press of this country
in the year ending April 1st were
gathered in one paper, the National
Association estimates it would make
a paper of over $3.50 pages. In the
last four years, during which time
an active publicity campaign has been
carried on, the National Association
estimates that over 100000 inches,
or over 80 miles of press notices on
tuberculosis have been published.
Publicity is the very heart of the
educational campaign against tuber-
culosis," says DR.. Livingston Farrand,
the executive secretary of the Ma
tional Association. Largely because
of the intelligent cooperation of the
press, has the anti-tuberculosis move
ment in this country been able to be-
come, as it is, the greatest movement
of its kind in the world When tu-
berculosis shall have become rare
disease, the American press may just
ly claim a large share in this gigan-
tic achievement"

"SOMETHING ROTTEN IN DEN
MARK"

The following is taken from the
testimony before the Florida Ever
glades investigating committee of
Tuesday:
The department of agriculture, it
was testified today, is at loss to
know how Thomas Will, who was in
terested in the exploitation of the Ev-
erglades land in Florida, got proof
of the first report on the drainage of
tary Wilson did not approve, and or
dered suppressed Joseph A. Arnold,
editor of the department, so testified.
He said that never before, within his
knowledge, had the government print
ing office failed to preserve the integ-
rity of a representative He said all
publications were treated as confiden-
tial, and he had no idea haw the proof
fell into Wills hands. This proof was
given to Senator Fletcher by Will and
later appeared in senate document.
Mr.. Arnold said he had made no
effort to find out how Mr.. Will got
the proof.
Under cross examination Mr.. Ar
mold said:
People were writing the depart
ment and calling in person at my of
flee and at the office of Secretary
Wilson, some urging that the report
be published, others protesting
against it. In view of this controver-
sy, l came to the conclusion that it
would be best not to print any report
on the Everglades"

MAN IS TIRED OF AMERICA
Minneapolis Delivery Wagon Driver
Charges That His Employer VIo-
lated the immigration Law

Minneapolis.-If James Fenlon were
an artist, an actor or an opera singer
he would not have recourse to the
courts, but he declares through MS
attorney that he is simply delivery
wagon driver and therefore feels ne
should be deported and should receive
$1,000 judgment from his employer.
1t is the first case in the history OF
federal jurisprudence in Minnesota
where anyone has asked for deporta-
ton.
Fenion through his attorney has
brought complaint in federal court
against J. C. Wilson, charging VIOLA
ton of the immigration act. Ihe
complaint declares that in 1911 wilson
induced Fenion to migrate from his
home in Greenock, Scotland, to the
United States, promising that II ne
would come to Minneapolis he would
give him a job as delivery wagon
driver at $12 a week. According TO
the complaint, 1t was understood the
transportation expenses were 10 Dc
paid back out OF Fenion's wages,
Fenion, however, is said to have be
como dissatisfied and has brought suit
under the law whereby none but
actors, opera singers or artists may be
brought into the country under such
a labor agreement without violation
of the immigration laws.

Judge Frank Ellis of the circuit court
mus decide: Il wife, who is caring

care of fifteen boarders and roomers'
and asked for no assistance, but that
the sixteenth boarder was the figura-

boarder she says she rebelled, and
that the husband cursed and abused
