Dade county gave him over three

burns defeat. Dade County has about
fifty voters that used TO be residents of
Putnam and am glad TO say that Mr..
Hilburn received at least forty eight OF
them.
am asked every day why Putnam
county didn't give Mr.. Hilburn larger
majority, but am unable TO tell them.
What is the reason.
Yours respectfully,
Robt. NJ. Simpson.
Miami, Florida, June 3d,1912.
The News will make no attempt 10
answer Mr.. Simpsons letter. Ii couldn't
if it were TO try. The fact, however, is
that Mr. Hilburn would be our Congress
man-ele TO day had he received the
support of the people of his home coun.
ty. AS ii is he had to get what MAORI
ties he had in Duval and Dade and the
other counties in face of the dscourag-
ing fact that large element in his own
county were fighting him bitterly al
home and were furnishing ammunition to
accomplish his undoing abroad. "a
prophet is not without honor, save in his
own country" and perhaps that will ap-
ply as we'll to politicians.
The defeat of Mr.. Hilburn by the peo-
pie OF his own county constitutes a
political tragedy which borders on sui
eide. Putnam county had il in its power
TO furnish the second district congress
mana man whom even his enemies
agree is of full congressional size-but it
hadn't that largeneSS of mind and heart
which would enable it to rise TO the i'm
portance of the occasion.
The evil that men do lives after
them; the good is oft inferred with their
