PROSECUTING ATTORNEY SAYS
BONDS CAN BE SOLD.
Beard ~ Trade and Other Business
and Civic Organizations Urge
the Sale Of Pe~iky.

II the board OF county commission
ers so decide the stock held by the
county n the r. W. a XIV. railroad
can be sold. This In effect was the
opinion OF Prosecuting Attorney
disposing of the stock read At the
meeting Of the board held yesterday
morning.
The meeting was very largely at
tended and also enthusiastic. A
committee OF the Ohio Valley Trades
and Labor Assembly and the board OF
trade were present and participated
In the discussion after Mr.. Handlan's
opinion had been read.
The opinion OF Mr.. Handlan was a
very lengthy one consisting OF about
seven typewriter pages and consist
Ing mainly OF citing legal references
in other cases OF a similar nature.
The main feature bearing on the case
however. was chapter 5. OF tn acts
OF the legislature OF 1887 which au-
thorized boards TO dispose Of stock or
any other such properties. The legal
authorities cited were insupport OF
this section oil holding that such &C
ton upon the part of any such board
was entirely within the law and en-
tirely legal.
Board OF Trade.
The board OF trade was represented
at the meeting by President Cecil A.
Robinson, Secretary r. H. Naylor. H.
=. Sands. Joseph Speidel. ST.. William
r. Stone. DR.. L. a. Hildreth, W. .,
Alexander and 4. r. Jacob. The
trades assembly was represented by
President Leo lie Flam. r. J. Weekly
apd L. &. Gallaghr. The represent
tatives OF the trades assembly were
present at IN meeting for the purpose
Of Directing to the sale Of the stock
they having been so INSTRUCTED at a
meeting OF the assembly held sunday
afternoon. However, when the mat
ter was thoroughly explained they
Withdrew their objections stating
that the assembly had been misin-
formed. The opposition in this quar-
ter came from the fact that the as
sembly was under the impression
that the stock was paying n dividend
Of IL per cent and they consequently
favored a bond issue and the reten-
ton Of the stock. However. when II
was shown that the county was re-
ceiving l2 per cent on the original in
vestment Of 500. 900, but only 3 or 4
on the present value OF the stock this
put a different light on the matter.
Sign Petition.
4 petition was presented signed
by over one hundred citizens and
tax payers ~ the county urging the
commissioners 70 sell the stock was
read. The signers were from both
the city and country districts.
Mr.. Robinson stated that the far

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Feb.
26.--The Florida land scandal
that has broken in Washington
has been brewing in Florida for
many months.
Today in Florida there are mill
lions of acres of swamp lands
that are the graveyard Of thous-
ands of small rainy day" for
tunes. In the gator ponds" the
muck lands the cypress,
lie buried the life savings and old
age hopes of thousands of fam
lilies.
The shame of all this is that
the United States government Off
cials knew what was going on
and did not expose it. Secretary
Wilson of President Taft's cabinet
did not raise q hand to stop il.
Indeed, on the other hand, the
land men show favorable report
of 10 pages on the everglade
lands, where the swindle has been
the greatest, purpOrting to come
from the government. The gov
eminent has never forced them to
withdraw it.
1T is A SIGNIFICANT FACT
THAT @. g. ELLIOTT, CHIEF OF
DRAINAGE, UNDER WILSON,
AND A. ID. MOREIiOUSE, AS
SISTANT TO ELLIOTT, WHO
HAVE BEEN REMOVED BY
WILSON'S ORDER, HAD DONE

PORT ON THE EVERGLADE
LANDS WHICH HAD BEEN
MADE BY j. o. WRIGHT, A

WHO, AFTER HIS OFFICIAL
TASK WAS COMPLETED, WAS
HIRED BY THE LEADERS IN

PROJECT.
When one of these delegates
reaches Fort Lauderdale or the
other centers he is astonished by
what is shown him. OF course all
the Fort Lauderdale and other
good river land is taken, but he
is shown over it nevertheless.
Then he is taken onto the roof of
a building and given view of
the great morass of eight or nine
million acres, further than his
eye can see.
They're digging canals almost
as large as rivers out there" says
the land man. 1.-The state is do

RUN AGAINST
PETIT

Evidently with some political
purpose In view columns of space
In outside papers have been used
by local correspondents lately in
declaring that A. v. Fawoett was
coming out to run for commission
er against F. H. Petit.
Fawcett declares there is not a
word of truth In the reports. He
announced several weeks ago that
he was for Petit for reelection
when emissaries of the open town
policy and the special interests
aried to get him to agree to sup
port some other candidate against

GIANT
COAL STRIKE

(By United Press Leased Wire.
NEW YORK, Feb. ga gi-
gantic anthracite coal strike is
feared as a result of expressions
of operators and miners held here
today regarding a working agree
ment.
The union leaders are firm in
their stand for absolute recogni-
ton of the union, abolition of the
Cancellation board and substitu-
tion of a one-year agreement for
the three-year agreement about to
expire.
The operators say they are OPP
posed unalterably to a one-year
agreement. They assert they will
reject all union demands and
formally propose a renewal of the
present contract.

SWAMP

Wrights report because they
didn't believe 1t.
But what IL the great swamp
can be drained? 1t will be many
years hence. Then will come the
apportioning of little farms to
the thousands who held the land
contracts. How many will be
left in the great mix-up. And
how many of the acres will be
good for anything for crop pur-
poses?
The very uncertainty of it all
makes 1t a huge bubble.
