Secret Of Influence.

Force, fervor, intensity--these are
the qualities which have given their
power to great leaders in all the
movements by which the world has
been swayed Sometimes they have
been present in men who left so little
written memorial or whose efforts
we're foiled by adverse circumstances
that we can note only the fact that
they must have been remarkable be
cause their contemporaries admired
and followed them. They possessed
the secret Of influence. though we can
not tell how they manifested it. They
are among the riddles of history

Frank L. Mayes, editor of the Pensa
cola Journal, is probably winning can
didate as one delegate from the Third
Congressional District to the National
Democratic Convention. Mr.. Mayes is
representative of the best democracy
of the state, clean, clear-headed gen
tlemen who will reflect honorupon the
entire state of Florida in that big con-
vention. He is in favor of the nomina-
ton of Gov. Woodrow Wilson, and in
case of dead lock would act for the
best interests of the party. He's the
real stuff, is this man Mayes.

Occasionally one finds a man in poll
Tics who prefers honor TO mere money.
Such man is Arthur E. Donegan, Of
Osceola county, who has reigned his
position as CLERK of the circuit court in
order TO run for state senator. or course
it is just possible that Mr. Donegan has
a "hunch" th&sShe clerks office would
be difficult to retain and that by coming
out from under at this time he can get
valuable support for the senatorShip.

Honey Lono in Use.

Hindus for centuries have used new
honey as laxative and old honey as
an astringent. Aborigines of Persia
offered honey to the sun. Greeks still
mix it with milk of water and use 1t
as a libation to the dead. In one
section OF India milk and honey are
handed to all bridegrooms as they ar
rive at the door Of the brides father,
and in ancient Egypt honey was long
chief ingredient of embalming fluid,

Fashions Little Changed.

From the fresco paintings of women
in Cretan palaces of the period about
1000 B. c., it is learned that the wom-
en- of that time pinched in their waists,
had flounced or accordion plated
skirts, were an elaborate couture,
shoes with high heels and hats which
might have come from a Partisan hat
shop, while one woman might be de-
scribed at wearing jupe culotte.

What is a progressive democrat?
Why, bless you, that's easy. A pro-
gressive democrat is a democrat who
recognizes that the world and IFS gov
ernments are constantly advancing to-
ward the light; who fayors joining the
procession rather than 10 sit idly dream
ing under the shade of the trees with
a corncob pipe in his mouth while the
procession passes. He believes in the
fundamental principles of democracy
as laid down by the fathers, but that
altered conditions of society may de-
mand a newer and more efficaciouS ap-
plication of those principles. In other
words a progressive democrat is one
whose loyalty to the fathers is not based
upon any notion of theft infallibility in
matters of government, but who never
theleSS believes that they laid the foun-
dationS for the best system of govern
ment the world has ever known; that
they builded the best they knew for
their own time and all time; that they
we're human and therefore not able 10
foresee all the ingenuity of unborn po-
litical trixters for all time, but that they
expected coming generations TO com
plete the superstructure of this govern
ment on the broad foundations they SC
carefully laid; that those who were &c
come after would be capable of taking
present day bulls by the horns even as
they, themselves, grabbed and throttled
the bulls of the eighteenth century.

Senator William Lorimer who is on
trial before a committee of the U.
S. Senate on the charge of procuring his
election by bribery, was on the stand in
his own behalfthe other day. He told
how he began backing boots at 10
years of age TO support widowed moth
er, then as cash boy, laborer, street car
conductor and building contractor, but
he failed to tell of the methods he en-
ployed in becoming the ''boss" OF the
republican machine in Chicago. Will
liam's start was all right. There is
nothing dishonorable in backing boots,
or being cash boy, or in serving as a
street car conductor But the republi-
can political boss of Chicago and the
partner of "Hinky Dink" is no "inno-
cent. -

ON WITHHOLDING VITAL EVIDENCE.

The admission of man in Iowa that he allow
ed a probably innocent man to be convicted of
murder and remain twenty years in states prison
because his wife did not want him to testify, !"
reveals IN one more awful instance the failure of
the law to cover some Of the most monstrous of
crimes The law provides that any one may be
compelled to testify. when it is known that he
has knowledge which would constitute material
evidence. but there is no law to punish the scom-
drel who would withhold evidence under such
circumstances, simply for the sake of avoiding
Inconvenience for himself Apparently the man
in question, who kept quiet after seeing the sup
poSedy murdered girl on her way alone. to the
place where il is now believed she committed sui
eide, did not avoid discomfort as his fact of
public duty long delayed attests
There is evidence Astounding that large num-
bers Of otherwise respectable citizens, who would
not dream of robbing the government or in
diyiduals of money. of committing any such
crime deliberately avoid letting it be known that
they have knowledge which would form material
evidence which should be given in the interest Of
justice to some one falsely accused of crime.
