BREAD UPON TIE WATERS

More tina half a century ago Dr. and
Mrs. William H. FELTON, betriended
Joseph H. Slocum, a prospector from
New York state, who through bust
ness reyerses was left suddenly With
cut funds at their home at Carriers
Vile A few days ago, as a result OF
that act of kindness, Mrs. FELTON, re-
ceived a check for $500 from Mrs.
Russell Sage, widow of the csc ,ntric
New York financler and daughter Of
Joseph Slocum This return of
bread cast upon the water means
much to Mrs. FELTON, just now, for it
will aid her in her plans to establish
an industrial college for Georgia
mountain girls. Kind deeds do not
die in the doing. They live and grow.
This one his lived for fifty-eight years
and if Mrs. Feltons generous plans
mature its life may never end.-Sa-

WHY THE CONSTITUTION

To the Editor Ocala Banner:
That the people have an original
right to establish, for their future gov
eminent, such principles as, in their
opinion, shall most conduce to their
own happiness, is the basis on which
the whole American fabric has been
erected. The principles, there
fore, so established, are deemed fun
damental. And as the authority from
which they proceed is supreme, and
can seldom act. they are designed to
be permanent. The powers of
the legislature are defined and limit
ed; and that these limits may not be
mistaken, or forgotten, the constitu-
ton is written 1t is a PROPOSE
ton 100 plain to be contested that the
constitution controls any legislative
act repugnant to it.'-Chief Justice
Marshall.
He further says:
1T is not ON slight implication and
vague conjecture that the legislature
is to be pronounced to have transcend
ed it's powers, and its acts to be con-
sidered void. The opposition between
the constitution and the laws should
be such that the judge feels a clean
and strong conviction of their incom-
patibility with each other"
To the credit of the courts and for
the security of the liberties and rights
Of the people, the courts of the coun-
try have strictly adhered to the above
doctrines VI.

SUED BY THE COLONEL, INSISTS
THAT CHARGES ARE TRUE

A late special from Marquette,
Mich, says that George A. Newett,
editor of the Ishpeming Iron Ore, who
has been sued by Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt for libel, will fight the case.
The brief filed by Editor Newett' S
attorney, William P. Bedding, recites
that Newett published the statements
in good faith. believing them to be
true, and that as the plaintiff was then
a candidate for the presidency of the
United States it was the duty of the
defendant to give the readers of his
publication all the information within
his power as to the character of the
candidate who sought their suffrage.
The brief concludes:
Defendant will further insist in his
defense that at and before the time of
publishing the words complained of
the plaintiff had been and was guilty
Of the facts and acts charged and
that the statement so complained of
was and is true in substance and
fact"
