GOLD FOR THE GROWERS
An Unexpected Melon to be Cut by
Members Of the Fruit
Exchange

Tampa. June 6.-Growers con-
nected with the Florida Citrus Ex-
change will find an unexpected nest
egg of $1,000. At the beginning Of
this season growers were assessed 3
cents box for contingent fund, but
the exchange has made money this
year and did not touch this fund.
Half of it will be returned at once
and it is probable. the rest will be
given back later.
The matter of Sales Manager r. P.
Burton's speculation in fruits during
the season, about which there was
much comment at the growers con-
vention held here in April and over
which General Manager w. G. TEN
pie resigned, was taken up in the
meeting of the board of directors and
fully threshed out The board de
cided that while Burton should no
have done it while holding the posi-
ton with the board, yet it was no
against any rule of the exchange an
did not of itself show any disloyalt
to the exchange.
The election Of. officers for the en-
suing year resulted as follows: DR..
H. Ross, president; w. B. Gray, frs
vice president; Dr.. w. C. Richard
son. second vice president; L. !
Jones, business manager; w.
HaizIip. cashier: E. d. Drew, traff

Washington, June 6.-Representa-

an odd bid for fame by introducing a
bill in the House to use the navy for
advertising American manufacturers

looking the fact that there is no

wants space allotted on the battles
ships and cruisers to install CONNER

TWENTY-FIVE RESPONSIBLE MEN
New York World.)

BY verdict of jury in the United
States court at Cincinnati more than
twenty-five men are held responsible
for the crimes of the Cash-Register
Trust. The penalty may be fine OF
Imprisonment or both.
This judgment is notable as we'll fof
the desperate character of the combi-
nation which it condemns as for the
large number of persons engaged in
it whose guilt is established. With
such a result in view, it should never
again be said by any one in authority
that the criminal clauses of the Sher-
man act cannot be enforced Their
failure in most cases is chargeable to
half-hearted prosecution rather than
to any weakness of the law
The Governments case against the
Cash-Register Trust was complete,
Combination, conspiracy, terrorism,
destruction of competition bribery,
Irice-smashing. price-fixing and mon
opoly were proved There was viola
ton of law at every stage of the bus
mess, with intent plainly revealed in
transactions innumerable. To hohl
society cannot protect itself against
such commercial brigandage as this IS
to deny human rights and to abandon
hope of justice.
In more than one respect the Cash
Register Trust seems to have been an
apt pupil of the Oil Trust. To some
extent 1t improved upon its instruc-
lions The Cash-Register people are
headed for Jail, where the Oil people

Flyers" Limited" Trains De
Luxe, and other crack and palatial
vestibuled trains, rushing shivering
westerners to the sunny land of Flor

That sort of thing did not comport
with the ideas of the alert and pro-
gressive folk in the Paulding metropo-
lis, SO they began by kindly trying to
show obdurate officials the necessity
the justice and the honor of stopping
the fast ones at the Dallas depot But

INTEREST GROWING IN BONDS

Unless indications are misinterpre--
ed the interest among the people OF
sumter county as regards the issuance
of road bonds for the Improvement OF
bridges and culverts is growing
greater as the time for the election
draws near
The large registration shows that
the people of the county have taken
tie trouble to register for the sheriff
and bond election. This means that
when the voters go to the polls that
they will express their opinions on
the bond issue, also, as, of course,
they vote in the sheriffs race.
For this reason the bond election
should not fail to result in favor OF
the issuance of bonds, for the people
have taken a lively interest in the
bond issue. They are discussing th5
issue and what it means as regards
the finances of the county. They haye
come to know that bonds mean econ
omy in a matter of this kind

same time replacing permanent ant
