A CONTEMPORARY UNDERGOING
THE USUAL EXPERIENCE

For some reason or other, which
We are unable to define, there appears
to be an u~ndercurrent somewhere-os
rather with some people-against the
Press. We do not know why this
should be, as the Press has labored
for many years for the upbuilding,
the betterment of Fort Myers and
Lee county, and it seems strange that
any person should want to do some
injury TO an institution that has work
I'd zealOusly and labOriously for good.
Just because perhaps there might
have been something in it at some
lime that did not just exactly suit
that PERSONS fancy, or that differed
from that persons point of view.
There are people here who are try
NJ to injure the Press who 90 about

hour for overtime. The ten hours in
cludes the time spent in going t o and
from the work, and prisoners are not
required to travel faster than a walk.
No greater amount of work shall be
done by a prisoner than his physical
health and strength will permit, nor
can any prisoner be placed at any la
Dor when the prison physician pro
nounces him unable to perform such
labor.
The prison commission is required
to provide as soon as practicable at
each prison and farm, schools for in
struction of the prisoners in the ele-
mentary branches of English and in
industrial education. and such other
instruction as they may prescribe,
providing also recreation, including
music, at reasonable hours. Books
are furnished the prisoners for read
ing, and a circulating library is main
tanned.
Regular religious services by pris-
on chaplains are provided for each
prison and farm at least twice l
month, the chaplains deyoting their
entire time to the religious training
Of the prisoners and to teaching.
The prison food must be plentiful
and wholesome, and served in a way
that tends to elevate the prisoners.
The bill of fare for each week must
be posted in the dining room, and a
copy is Sent to the commissioners.
| Prisoners are not allowed spirituous,
malt or vinous liquors except upon
prescription of the physician, and
gambling is not permitted.
The prison physician, and in his alb
sence, the matron, has the authority
to say whether the physical condition
of female prisoners is such that they
can perform any physical labor. The
female prisoners are kept on a sepa-
rate farm, the whites and blacks in
separate buildings, with matrons in
charge, who are required to look aft
er the welfare of these prisoners and
to live at the places where they are
kept. Only married men, who must
live with their families in houses pro
vided by the state near the prisons,
are employed as guards.

"soMEeoDY, HEAD Us!"
McIntosh, Fla, Nov. 4. 1912

MCINTOSH, Fla. Nov. 4. 1912.
To the Editor Ocala Banner: |
| have been wanting to write you,
for several days, but have not had
time. | have wanted to thank you
for giving the socialists so much
space in the Banner, and for your full
and considerate replies to their let
ters. | think there is no better way
to combat error than to give it pub
licity, and this you have done fully,
yet considerably. There are num-
bers of people in our county who are
more or less one-sided in their views,
who get so thoroughly imbued with
one idea that they can see but one
side. You demonstrate that fully
when you tell how you once could
see nothing but good in Mr.. W. j.,
Bryan. You thought he was a wise.
thoughtful. and an honest man, but
you now admit that a number of his
ideas were fallacious, and now you
seem TO think that he is full of ute
rior motives.
Our friends, the socialists, are good
at theorizing. but their plans can lev
er work as long as man is truly hui
man, and selfish.
/ have Just read an article in The
Independent, by Senator Sutherland
OF Utah on our constitution. which |
think should be read and given close
consideration by every nan in our
county. It is full Of plain facts and
would tend TO ure many vasaries i
given proper thought. | sometimes
feel that we, as a people, often do as
the boy did when he yoked himself
up with a calf, and the calf conclud-
ed to run. Then the boy called for
somebody to head US off, We need
our constitution to head US Off"
Mr.. Roosevelt is now yoked up with
the calf ambition, and l hope on cleo
ton day he will be headed off"
think, as Senator Sutherland says,
that u constitution is old, and also
the ten commandments are old, but
both are good to live under. and |
doubt not but there are just as many
men that would like TO make chang
es in the ten commandm nts as there
are who think they could make a bet
ter constitution. l don't even like the
idea of a popular election of United
States senator's. l believe that Frank
lin was right when he said: Take
care of the dimes, and the dollars
will lake care of themselves" II We.
the people, will send good men to
Tallahassee, We will be pretty sur
to get good United States senators,
and if we won't elect good men to 60
to Tallahassee, what assurance have
We that we will elect good men TO
send to the United States senate-the
men with the best flow OF language
and the ability TO sway the masses,
ii not always the best men, TO be
United States senator's?
Yours truly,

FOR TAFT DENIED
Customary Refutation of At

Made Promptly.

WASHINGTON. July 1S.-A cir
cumstantial story of an attempt on
the life of President Taft is being
denied vigorously early today by
White House officials and Chief
Wilkie of the secret service.
1t was said that a bomb wrapped
in a package was received late yes
terday afternoon at the executive Of
fees and placed upon the desk of
Sherman Allen, n of the White
House assistant secretaries, who has
just been appointed assistant secre-
tary of the treasury. The package, of
course, was intended for the Presi-
dent, but packages and letters never
reach him without first passing
through the hands of a secretary, and
Mr.. Allen opened it.
The report was that as Mr.. Allen
u%nwrapped the package he discovered
an Internal machine, said to have
beer charged with dynamite and
with fuse suffering. He quickly ex-
tinguished it with his hands,
Mr.. Allen enphatically denies the
story, as do all the other White
House officials. White House Off
GERS always deny publicity to any in
cident which savors of an attempt
upon the President. Although the

though the story as published is very
circumstantial, it is now pronounced

knew Nathan Swartz, wanted for the
murder of Julia Connors, declare he
was in Whippany Friday looking
for work and that unable to obtain
it he went away in the direction of
Powerville, which is near Boonton.
Swartz worked in the Whippany
mills and was recognized by an old
associate.
Just why no mention was made of
his visit until now is not known.
Police-Sergeant Morrison heard of it
and hurried to Whippany. He
learned of S the various place
Swartz was said to have been for
an hour at a time and traced him
toward Powerville. 1t IS Morrison's

seeking farm employment. AS this
is a busy season in the hay fields
he could get work easily.
