declared. The miners demanded an
increase Which, under the scale,
would not have exceeded two and
one-half GEMS per ton-the miners
say one and one-half cents per ton.
Taking two and one-half cents as the
increase this would have amounted
to $3.50 per day for eight opera
tons. or $1s.75 per day for each.
mine. These figures are very con-
seFVatiVe On account OF this small
difference several lives have been
lost. the relation between the oper-
ators and miners has become one OF
hostility and the state put to an ex>
pense that already amounts to about
$4,000, and is increasing at the
rate of more than $4,000 per day.
: The same authority asks: 'Is It
not about time that wiser and ganer
courses shall prevail?"
! While there are more miners on
the creek than above stated, the
others are working. or course the
difference in the price paid and the
scale where It is not complied with
would show a difference in favor
Of the company, but 1t is stated that
where the men are working they
are getting as much as would be paid
were the scale adopted, but this is
commended to be only temporary.
Another testimonial Of, the won
derful changes that have been
wrought in the Paint Creek valley
since the militia has gone in and
cleaned up the properties of the coal
companies to make it possible for a
human being to exist therein, is
shown in a letter to Adtutant Gen
eral Elliott from the REV. Thomas
H. Collins. a Catholic priest Of Mont
gomery. The Rev Mr.. Collins has
been up and down the creek several
times in recent years, and wa5
through 1t Just before and after the
militia was called out. He visited
the headquarters a few days ago and
when informed that the governor
and party would go through the
territory he asked to be permitted
to join the party and the request
was readily granted. After his re-
turn to Montgomery, Father collins
wrote General Elliott as follows:
81 have oft in the course of a
somewhat protracted visit, been sore
lily puzzled how to express my graft
tude for kindness and favors done,
not only to myself, but for'my peo-
pie. While cannot claim many Of
the poor miners as belonging to our
church, still I have tile same feeling
for them all. and would do for them
all what lies within my very limited
power.
"The solicltude and foresight
which you have manifested in their
behalf In striving to show those
poor people that cleanliness is next
to Goodness shows me that you
know how to transplant goodness
into these peop.e, and-4bat you, have
the right Idea Of how to make them
more moral and religious. A clean
body presupposes a clean mind. I'M
dying gratitude esteem and regard
together with highest wishes and
most fervent prayers for your pros
perity and success In life, and in
death are the smallest tributes for
such consideration, Justice can exact
from them. May heaven help you'
and reward you, for It only can.

main,

/ NO ADDITIONAL NAMES
OF Survivors of the Titanic Reported.
Death Roll Does Net
Diminish

New York, April 1s.-The roll Of the
saved from the Titanic disaster seems
complete.
Practically every attending circum-
stance in the transmission of news
from the Carpathia goes 10 show that
only 32S OF the SO cabin passengers
of the Titanic are safe on the rescue
ship.
The 2S2 cabin passengers whose
names have not appeared in the lists
sent ashore by wireless probably must
be conceded as among the 1872 lives
which the collision of the mammoth
new steamer with an iceberg off the
Newfoundland banks Sunday night is
believed to have taken.
Thousands Of hopeful hearts We're
turned to despairing ones when the
United States scout cruiser Chester
wirelessed ashore late yesterday that
she had been in communication with
the Carpathia and had asked repeat ted
ly for the full list of the first and sec
ond cabin survivors and that the res
cue ship reported that all the names
had already been sent ashore.
The remainder of the $40 persons
saved were passengers in the steera sc
or members of the crew.
Among the names of those saved is
Jacques Futrelle, the writer, who was
at first reported lost.

sIsTRUNK VERSUS NUGENT
Doesn't Look to the Advocate Like the
Latter Gentleman Has Much
of n Case

In this issue We publish Hon. S. T.
letters of his opponent, Mr.. P. H. Nj
gent. The issue between these two
gentlemen seems to be one wholly of
veracity. Summing up the situation
from an unbiased standpoint we come
to the conclusion that these letters
that have passed between these two
candidates are strictly of a personal
nature and have no bearing directly
on the duties involved in the office of
circuit court clerk. which is the office
for which these gentlemen are con-
testing.
The very fact that Mr.. Nugent ac-
cepted Mr.. Sistrunks letter, written
four years ago and saying that the
latter would not be a candidate again.
shows that Mr.. Nugent was bent on a
political trade all the time, and that
he would use this letter with hopes
that it would elect him this time.
However, the many voters throughout
the county seem to think Mr.. Sistrunk
does pretty we'll as clerk. and Mr.. Nu-
geEt's political trade game has
strengthened Mr.. Sistrunk greatly.
The Advocate believes Mr.. Sistrunk
is deserving of the nomination and re-
election, and as he has certainly been
faithful in every way in the discharge
of the duties of the office-not a word
| of dissatisfa elton being heard from
any of his constituents, which speaks
| we'll for any man who has been serv-
| ing the people as a public official as
| long as has Mr.. Sistrunk.-Dunnellor
Advocate.

THAT .IMPOssIBLE DUTY"

To the People: The period In which
your county superintendent may visit
your schools is not limited by the
average length of the school term, but
extends from the opening of the ear
Hest school to the last closing day of
any school. Many Of our schools open
in July and August, some close as late
as the latter part of May. Counting
only half of July and May, the period
for visits covers ten months, of which
$50 days are available for visits. AL
lowing so days for all hindering
causes, 100 days are available. Can
your superintendent visit ia schools
in that time? He can nearly average
two schools daily.
Many of you have the idea that the
chief duty Of the superintendent is tc
superintend the schools to be really
superintendent. Your idea is correct
Hold to it. Yours truly,
p. Wilson Green.

Many Of US find fault with the
Times Union, but we all read 1t. This
was emphasized to the editor of the
Star in Jacksonville last Saturday
morning. when he applied at three
successive news stands for a copy of
the T.-U., only to find that each had
sold out. Sunday evening, he called at
the Times-Union's fine, new building
and had a brief look at the editorial
and composing rooms. Sunday is al
ways an of night in the office Of
morning paper, as at least half of the
force is taking brief rest. There
were enough men at work on the
Times-Union last Sunday night, hoy
ever. to issue what would have been
considered tremendously big paper
q few years ago. Having put in many
long nights on morning papers in our
younger days, we were particularly
interested in the composing room,
which was a vast apartment, fully
equipped and in splendid order. AS
the writer stood at the foreman's desk
and watched the big battery of limo
types steadily turning out reading
matter by the column, he couldn't help
thinking Of the Times-Union as he
first knew 1t over a quarter of CEN
fury ago. 1t then occupied most of the
second floor and couple OF rooms
downstairs in the building now oc-
cupied by the Western Union Tele-
graph Company on the corner of Bay
and Laura streets. There was about
a bakers dozen of printers on the
force-the foreman, two assistants to
help him make up and set ads, seven
or eight compositors and the galley
boy. Chas. H. Jones was then editor
and proprietor, the night editor wrote
the heads and read most of the proof,
the city editor was also a reporter and
had one man to help him, and the tele-
graph copy instead of coming into the
office over the papers leased wire was
brought by boy in patches or single
sheets from the Western Union office
in another building. The press room
down stairs held numbering machine
that would print four seven-column
pages at, time, and the press and
mailing room force was two men and
a boy. The entire office and its outfit
Of that day would have gone into and
ratified around loose in the composing
room OF the present There are more
linotypes in use on the paper of today
than there were hand compositors on
the paper in 'S5, and one of the ma
chimes Saturday afternoon and evening
set more type than the whole force
could set twenty-seven years ago. The
composing room alone now keeps busy
forty-five men, which is about twice as
many as the whole force of the paper
in the heyday of Charlie Jones' glory
The remainder of the plant is in pro-
portion. and we have no reason to be-
lieve there is a better equipped news
paper in the South than the Times
nor one that has a finer force
of men. They all know their business
from the editor in chief down, and
while the Star often disagrees with
the policy of the paper, it yields tic
none in good will for men who make
il or in admiration for the quality OF
their work.

Of our people and made a favorable
Impression Other candidates may
have gained strength since then. Mr..
Milton has lost none He impressed
our people as an unusually strong and
intelligent man, and one not given to
making important moves without
careful consideration.
Since his visit last fall, Mr.. Milton
has presented his views to the people
OF this county twice, thru the Star. We
have only found fault with one of his
proposftions-the Everglades farm for
convfcts That we have opposed more
because we thought 1t wouldn't work
than because 1t couldn't. We should
not regard 1t alone as good reason for
defeating Mr.. Milton, IL he should be
the best man on other propositions
The disposal of the convicts Is more
the affair Of the legislature than of the
governor; 1t Is very large question
and will last more than one term be-
fore 1t is finally disposed Of. The
matter for the voters to decide in re-
gard to Mr.. Milton, as with the other
candidates is, will he make an honest
and capable governor, and is he more
or less competent than his opponents
These questions can best be decided
by going to see and hear him, ant
carefully considering what he has tt
