BIRDS VS.. CATS.

Editor Independent:-It seems to
me we should have more birds in
town, as well as in the country,
where they are plentiful. And we
would have them if they were given
chance. The reason is: cats, cats,
cats! You cannot throw a stone at
a yellow dog without hitting one of
these filthy, unclean, disease-carry-
ing beasts, and cats and birds do
not go. together.
Cat sare absolutely worthless, as
well as treacherous and do no one
any good One five-cent mouse trap
is better than a cat as mouse ex-
terminator. l banished cats from
my place three years ago and since
have had the company of the birds.
They sing from the trees and look
in at the windows, seeming to know
that they are protected, and ! pre-
fer the birds to the cats.

the race since Mr.. Milton has with

clared that he would not make another
effort to land the job.
Colonel Gibbons believes that he has
right under the law to force the
state executive committee to place his
name on the ballot for the second pri-
mary, and further that he believes
that with his name duly printed on the
slip he will stand good chance of
handing defeat to Park VI. Trammel.

WaIpOIe Gets Warm


Frank A. Walpole, the scrapping edi-
tor from Manatee county was none the
less warm and eloquent in his condem-
nation of the Milton tactics. which he
heard the results of the confab held
yesterday. His remarks were some
thing like this:
q wish to announce myself as
champion of Cromwell Gibbons can
didacy for governor, and to insist that
because of revelations that came to me
last night, that his name should be
placed on the ticket in the second pri
mary and he should receive the sup
port of every loyal and fair minded
democrat in the state of Florida.
make this announcement and sincerely
hope it will be published as l know
Col Gibbons would make admirable
chief executive and because l am un-
alterably opposed to having the high
est offices within the gift Of the peo-
pie of Florida bartered and traded in
by aspiring politicians"
Mr. WaIpole goes further in the
matter and charges that Milton and
some of his friends framed up the big
deal. which Walpole describes as fol-
lows:
LAS l understand it. the deal agreed
to and carried out insofar as Mr. Mil
| tons withdraway from the race is con-
cerned is this: That J. T. G CraW-
| ford will be made national committee
| man and attempt to control the patron
| age of the state of Florida should
| there be democratic president, and
that should Senator Fletcher secure the
appointment of an United States circuit
judge in case of Judge LOcke's re-
| tirement, William H Milton is slated to
succeed him. He will, Of course, re-
ceive Mr.. Trammells support in return
| for his regufal to further contest for
the governorShip. Four years later,
according 10 the elaborate and highly
interesting plan, Mr. Trammeu Will
| make the race for United States sena-
| tor against Senator Bryan, and Will
| receive the support of Mr.. Milton and
his friends for that position.
| Il positively refuse to be bartered
and traded in such a manner and l
do not believe that the people Of the
state of Florida will stand for the
| politics of the state being run by a few
men who enter a secret cOnclave in the

him to agree to such alleged trade;
therefore, the entire substance of his
interview was either made up by him

not present and who manufactured it
out of whole cloth.
Asked No Pledge
Neither Mr., Milton nor any or his
