ton day, and such ballots can be dis
tributed to the various committees in
the several election districts in time
for such use on election day.
The printing and distribution to you
of these sample folders, of these and
other circular letters regarding this
amendment, and of the sample ballots
(75,000) to the various counties (these
last to be sent next week to county
superintendents and by him given to
the county and local committees un-
less different suggestions are in the
meantime received here) will entail a
total cost of about $50, and as the gen.
eral state committee for the campaign
for this amendment has not been able
to hold a meeting of all its members,
and therefore to raise funds for this
expense, the members consulted have
suggested that a contribution of 81
from each county be solicited for the
expense Of the general committee. A
copy Of this letter Is being sent to
every county superintendent, to the
chairman of every county school
board, the secretary Of every board
of trade, and to the principals of high
schools In the county seats. Will you
not consult with each other imme-
diately, taking steps to have folders
printed for your county, committees
OF business men interested in the
schools appointed to distribute them
and to work for the amendment and
give out sample ballots and instruct
the voters on election day, and will
you not send me at once 81 for each
county to pay the expenses Of the or
ganization of this campaign. In no
other possible way can the fund be
raised. A receipt will be issued to the
sender of this amount and an account
of the expenditure of the fund made to
the general committee. County com :
mittees should raise funds to pay ex-
pense of local campaigns and printing,
which expense should be light.
1 wish, on behalf of the general state
committee, and of the Florida Educa-
tional Association, to thank every one
for the interest shown in the amend
ment and for the cooperation given
us in this work Please write me the
prospects for the amendment in your
county and what work Is being done
and will be done there between this
time and the counting of the ballots.
Kindly let me know how many sample
ballots will be needed for your county.
Very sincerely yours

Taft's Friends for Wilson.
Thousands of Taft Republicans
have made up their minds to vote for
Gov. Wilson because they bitterly re-
sent the passage of the present COM
plicated election law passed by the
last California legislature which prac-
tically excluded from the official bad
lot the Taft and Sherman electors.
Everywhere in the state protests are
being made against this law. the re-
sponsibility for which rests with the
governor and his associates. Recently
In Los Angeles the Republican county
central committee adopted a resolution
declaring that the action Of the rene
gade Republican Roosevelt tricksters
of the last California legislature in en-
acting complicated election law, sup
plemented by the barefaced seizure by
degenerative progressives Of the name
and organization Of the Republican
party, so as effectually to exclude from
the official ballot the names of Taft
and Sherman electors, entities the per-
petrators of the villany execration of
all honest citizens of whatever politi-
cal faith
This resolution further advised
that Republicans vote for Wilson cleo
tors in order to defeat Roosevelt. In
doing SO, Republicans would not i'm
pair their loyalty as Republicans or
their standing as honest and inde-
pendent citizens, the Taft leaders de-
clared.
so instead Of being effective, as the
third term party leaders thought, their
underhand tactics proved a boomerang
and Roosevelt will lose thousands of
votes that he might otherwise have
gained. Another weakness Of the third
term party in California Is the lack OF
faith that laboring men have for the
candidate and their growing belief that
the party's labor plank offers them
nothing. I had the statements of re-
liable labor leaders before l left Cali
fornia that the great majority of
thoughtful laboring men, not only in

WORKING FOR
THE PROPOSED
AMENDMENT
CHAIRMAN LANE OF THE FLOR
IDA EDUCATIONAL ASSocIA-
TON SENDS OUT LETTERS AND
FOLDERS TO VOTERS.
starke, Fla, Oct. %, 1912.


My Dear Sir: / beg to call your at
tention to the enclosed folder con-
corning the proposed constitutional
amendment regarding the issuance of
school bonds. We are putting out L.
500 of these in this county. The fold
err is approved by all members of the
general state committee working for
this amendment that l have been able
to see, and 1 respectfully suggest that
in each county a similar folder be put
at once in the hands of local commit
tees in every special tax school dis
trict and in every election district and
by them put into the ha-.ds of every
voter now. The largest possible num-
Der of votes should be cast for the
amendment. and this will require edu-
cation. These local committees can be
appointed by county boards of public
instruction, by boards of trade, or by
county teachers associations, and as
the farmers and business men of the
state are behind the movement for the
ratification of this amendment, as
many farmers and business men as
possible should become workers on
these local committees.
Would be Favorable.
1t has been suggested also by some
of the general state committee that
on election day there be put into the
hands of every voter sample ballot
showing how the official ballot should
be marked in order to vote for the
amendment. And 1t is believed that if
these two things can be done-folders
given to each voter now and. on cleo
ton day, the printed instructions for
marking the official ballot as suggest
ed above-the vote on this amend
ment will be one hundred per cent
larger and seventy five per cent IA
vorable to ratification. These sample
ballots can be printed by the executive
committee of the Florida Educationel
Association and distributed to the local
committee in each county seat In sur
hcient quantity for the local commit
tees throughout the county to nand q
sample ballot to every voter on cleo

Food Tasters at Feasts.

The sixteenth century feast was a
round of precautions. The table laid,
the panther at once tasted the bread
and salt as q preliminary "feeler."
Then my lord washed in water tested
for poison and dried with a towel al
ready kissed as a like precaution, this
the while each dish Of the first course,
.then on the dresser, was being tasted
by the stewards and cooks under the
direction of the sewer. The dishes
then came to the high table, and "as-
sage" was taken by the carver and the
sewer himself. Nothing was left to
chance. Pieces were Clipped from
each loaf and corners from all meats.
Pies were broken open and ''cornets'
of bread dipped into several places and
swallowed by the tasters. Granted the
we'll being of these tasters, the feast
could then proceed.-London Chronicle.

The Two Coats Were There.

Sometimes the more you get negro
cornered the less cornered you have
him. This fact. long known to many,
was discovered the other day by a
leather man in the swamp"
This man suddenly awoke to the fact
that certain back walls were dingy
with dirt and decided they'd look much
better if whitewashed.
So he summoned his old negro facto-
tum and told him to get busy with his
whitewash brush, giving special direc-
tons to put two coats on.
When the job apparently had been
finished the leather merchant inspect
ed it and found the whitewash suspi-
ciously thin looking.
Summoning Sambo, he said as stern
ly as he COT d, "You didn't 90 over
those walls twice as told you to-
mo, sir" was the quick reply. 81

two coats in de pail, sir-two coats in

A story of La Eontaina,

La Fontaffe used to denounce the
stage aside" as utterly inartistic and
inadmissible. In Jean de la Fon-

burst before Moliere. Racine and
Boileau
Nothing" said La Fontaine, lis
more contrary to good sense. What!
The pit is supposed to understand that
which an actor is not expected to hear.
although he is close behind the one
who is speaking? Absurd.'
AS he grew very warm while thus
expressing his feelings. and as it was
impossible to make him hear a word
Boileau tried to arrest his attention by
repeating over and over again in loud
tones, La FOntaine must be a pretty
rascal. a great rogue" But La Fon-
taine took no notice of all this abuse.
At last they all burst out laughing.
and this interrupted his train of
thought.
What are you laughing att" he said
BOileau replied gravely: Fancy. l
was abusing you at the top of my voice
and you never heard me- although |
am near enough to touch you. and
you are astonished that an actor does
not hear an aside that another actor
ptters on the boards"
