MAKES FIGHT FOR
NEW COUNTY
Legislator kite Wants Santa
F9" on Florida Map.
AREA OF SIG SQUARE MILES
Assessed Valuation of the Section At
fected is About 100000 and the
New County Would Have Popula-
ton of Some 10000.

One Of the most interesting county
division fights scheduled for the pres
ent Florida legislative session is that
of Representative E. R. B. Kite, of
A'achua, for the formation of the
county of Santa Fe out of portions of
Alachua, Clay, Bradford and Putnam
counties.
In giving his reasons for the forma-
ton Of the new county, Mr.. Kite pre-
scented the following interesting facts
The new county would have an area
Of SIC square miles, or 368,649 acres,
which is greater than the area of
twelve other counties in the state. The
assessed valuation of the section af-
fected is about 100000, and it has
a population of about 1O,5OO, accord
ing to the census figures of 1910.
This is greater than the population
of sixteen other counties in the state.
The counties affected would lose as
sessed property valuation as follows:
Bradford, SCI ,23O; Clay, $685. Asst; Put
nam, $376,940; Alachua, $1,243,O92.
Telegraph, telephone and Standard Oil
properties in Putnam, Clay and Brad
ford counties are not included in these
figures.
For years past the sections affect
ed have not had fair division in the
matter Of good roads appropriations"
said Mr.. Kite, "and the only hope of
the people is to organize a county for
themselves. The movement is natur-
ally meeting with strong opposition
from interested PARTIES, but hope to
win before the session ends. If not,
the fight will be taken up again at
the next session.

selected for him by Mrs. Woodrow

Mrs. Wilson written on her personal
stationery, in which she says:
MY Dear Mr.. Smith: l forwarded
yesterday the little picture, with apol-
ogies for the delay. l hesitated to
choose one for you, not knowing what

a boy at the Berry school for a whole

are 500, and he makes $50 himself
by his work on the farm or in the
shops.
Thanking you for your interest in
the school, am yours very sincerely,

'ALEER'S TRIP
IS NOW UNCERTAIN
RED Sox SLOW IN SIGNING CON-
TRACTS FOR COMING
SEASON.

BOSTON. Oct. 26.--It is possible
that President McAleer Of the Boston
club, may be deprived Of the long
awaited pleasure of a trip around the
world with all all~star baseball cast.
Up to week ago President McAleer
was placidly making preparations for
his trip but now II looks as though
the unsettled state of affairs in his
baseball family may keep him at
home
While many Fnagnates have already
signed up & majority of their men for
another season. there IS noticeable
dearth OF signatures in the Boston
club Offices Al this time last season,
Speaker, Carrigan. Collins. Wagner,
Lewis and a few others were the only
real hold-outs In Boston camp. but 1t
is a lot different just now, and Fos-
ter ~ -tAarrfEar ar--rr-- ire
practically all the members Of the
family who have agreed TO get in
line.
The reason is not very hard to figure
out. Ii la the indirect result Of the
iiberality that President McAleer
showed last fall when he issued the
contracts for the season just closed,
Then. flushed with victory and the
achievement OF a worlds champion
ship. players went the limit In their
demands for an increase. Except in
one or two instances the Boston club
met their demands.
Naturally. President McAleer does
not feel like going the limit again with
men whose work this last summer was
hardly in keeping with the big COM
pensation they draw. One or two
players had The forethought TO obtain
81 iarE- term contract at fat figures last
fall but the majority. were not quite
so fortunate and they will find the at
mosphere trifie different in the of
fice when they come TO talk salary,
/; Is this task OF signing UP men that
threatens to keep McAieer in town for
some time TO come, and unless several
of the players change their attitude
q settlement of the difficulty may not
be arrived al for several weeks.
