Madison, S. D., March 29.-Up to the
present hour no information can be OBJ
tanned in regard to the whereabouts of
the Hartman girl who it is supposed
was kidnapped on the afternoon of
Tuesday, March 25.
Sheriff Butts, assisted by Deputy
Sheriff Martin, has been engaged since
the disappearance OF the girl. and in
spite of the fact that they hQye worked
necessarily and have been aided by
friends of Mr.. Hartman, they have not
met with any success.
One of the strange incidents in con-
nection with the affair is that no one
other than the school children and
teacher remember seeing the strange
rig which is supposed to figure in the
mystery.
Residents in all parts of the county
are deeply concerned as to the safety
OF the missing girl and no means will
be spared to locate the child.

CONGRESSMAN WILSON
} is MAKING GOOD
) . = 80 . . . = = . . 80

Contrary to the established rule that
new congressman may be seen but
not heard, Congressman Emmett Will
son has entered upon his duties at
Washington and is being recognized
as one who will take part in the
fights for a fulfllment of the party
pledges
This West Florida district does not
want its representative to be satisfied
if he succeeds in getting a few needed
appropriations but wants him to be
leader in bringing about needed leg
islation for the benefit of the whole
nation. In such work Emmett Wilson
is now taking part and has made his
maiden speech making a mark for
himself on the floor in the debates
on the tariff question, something a
few pretending democrats are already
trying to dodge and before being there
a month has been called to the chair
as speaker protein.
Mr.. Wilson is probably too busy
to have learned it but his friends of
East and South Florida are already
talking about the desirabiiity of urg-
ing him to make the race against
Senator Fletcher next year This,
however, is another question and the
Leader merely wants to say it is
glad the third district has a real
live sentative.-Jackson Leader.

VOx POPULI
SHOULD "TOTE FAIR" WITH
ALL CLASSES OF VEHICLES

Editor Pensacola Journal
Another selfish auto driver has beer
"pinched" for not regarding the safety
and rights of the street car passenger
Right and proper, doubtless; but
why not tote fair?"
Within the last two weeks the writer
has seen National Biscuit wagon, a
Southern Express wagon and an EN-
pire Laundry wagon, do Just that same
trick In front of the bank building
corner Palafox and Garden streets.
In one instance the street car con-
ductor (who had stepped off to help
lady and child off the carr had to
get back on his platform for his own
protection; in another the mule was
going at sweeping trot Of at least
10 miles per hour and no more notice
was given the street car than If Ii
had not been there; and in the other
case the driver not only forged ahead,
making the passengers wait for his
passing, but was also on the wrong
side of the street, going north between
the south-bound car and the bank
building.
1t makes one wonder IL our city
dads" deem 1t preferable to be rammed
by a wagon shaft or damned by an
iron wheel, instead of being scared
to death by the auto.
The auto must show a red tail light
at night. Right and proper again, but
what for? To protect others against
being run over when the auto is run
ming backward, or to protect the auto
from being run into. And if the latter,
why are our "city days" so much more
considerable of the care ofthe auto than
OF the many other vehicles that line
the sidewalks and travel the streets
the darkest nights with no protection
whatever.
The speed fool needs legislation that
applies to no other class of insanity,
but many Of our present traffic regu-
latfons should be far more comprehen-
sive than they are.
A one-eyed mule with a, rubber neck
driver, or a messenger boy trying to
beat the other one to it, can trans
gress on the pedestrians rights as
easily as any auto; and any buggy,
dray or wood cart Is an obstruction
where an auto would be under similar
conditions.

The Power of
The Press.

His eulogists say that Thomas Jeff

America than any other one man He
laid the foundation for national lib
erty for the press of the nation and
urged and aided in securing the pro-
lection in the constitution Yet Jeff
erson had some very caustic views of
the newspapers OF his day. He said
they were vulgar and mendacious.
Founders day" was recently cele-
brated at the University of Virginia
and the principal speaker, Dr. Falcott
Williams OF the school of journalism
OF Columbia University, spoke of the
power of the present day newspapers.
He said that our present president,
like Jefferson, had won public conf
dence solely by public advocacy of
public principles. Woodrow Wilson,

Agriculture in
Rural Schools.

The South is fast coming to realize
the Importance of teaching the chill
dren Of farmers how to farm 1t has
Gently, little of practical use was ac-
compIished. In some of the southern
states notably, Kentucky, teaching ag-
riculture in the one-room rural schools
will be given a complete trial so il
may be determined If this may be
done without disturbing the rest OF
the course of study and to ascertain
what will be the effect on the agricul-
tUral condition of the neighborhood.
In nearly, If not all of the southern
states, farming is the leading and most
important industry. It's importance
will grow rather than decrease. That
this growth may be rapid and profit
able it is important that the best
methods of farming be employed. The
young farmer must be taught these
the } schools is unquestionable the
proper place to do the teaching.
From an agricultural standpoint
Florida is advancing as fast as any
other state in the Union. The natural
advantages are more numerous and
the obstacles are fewer. Many of the
Florida farmers still follow wasteful
and sipshod methods, because they
know no other. If better methods were
used the efficiency of the farmers
would be doubled.
This is an important problem and
it is greatly to be desired that the sup
state will give it the fullest consid-
