acy to loot the State that ever ex-
listed.
I'VE have only scratched the sur
face OF this business" said Mr.. Os-
borne.
II do not know this ex-warden, this

he allowed in the prison under his

and IL he shall be convicted and SEN
fenced TO year in the penitentiary.

with the punishment.
IF once the people Of New York
knew what had been going on there
they would go up there and tear the
building down. When the grand jury
resumes In October. we will take up
other aspects Of the prison misman-
agement. There Is the industrial side

SCHOOL FIGHT GETS
|. IN WYTHE POLITICS
NON.ELECTTON OF SUPERINTEN-
DENT FOR COUNTY HAS
CAUSES TROUBLE.

wYTHEvILLE. VA, July Ia
There has been but little interest
taken In politics in Wythe insofar as
it relates TO the candidate for the
house Of delegates. Colonel w. O.
Moore, the former representative for
wythe county. has announced his
candidacy for reelection and will
have no opposition. at least there is
no indication at this time that any
other candidate will offer.
The contest for county superinten-
dent Of schools will have a bearing
on the contest between the candidates
for attorney general. In fact this Is
the only matter causing the least in
terest in State politics. Many COM
mems are made on the action OF the
board of education In postponing the
appointment for Wythe county until
after the primary. and various con-
lectures are made AS to the effect OF
that action. The contest for the post
office here is also a matter Of con-
siderable. interest. with three candi-
dates IN the feId. Mr.. Otey IS back
ed by what Is known as the organ
ization. while Major Sanders and Mr..
Sexton are using every effort to over
come this influence. All three OF the
candidates supported the origination
candidates in the last primary for the
United States senate. and there has
as yet no one announced for the posi-
ton who voted against ring rule In
that election. There Is desperate
effdrt being made to land the POSI-
ton for Mr.. Otey by persons who
have heretofore been potential in the
party counsels Neither Of the other
candidates have been active in poll
ties. What the outcome will be can
not be foretold.s

STATE DIVISION STARTED
Pensacola People Have Cut for Deal In
the Game and Made the
First Play

Pensacola, Jan. ga movement to
allow the people of Florida to vote on
state division and the creation of
West Florida as a state is being or
ganized here. The constitution of the
United States does not provide there
shall be a vote of the people before a
state is divided. 1t is simply provided
that no state shall be divided without
the consent of the legislature and of
Congress. However, as the Florida
Legislature will hardly give it's con-
sent before the people express them
selves on the matter, it is more than
likely that there will be a vote of the
people on the matter before the legis-
lature acts, 1t is argued The legis-
lature next year could refer the matter
to the people to be voted on in the
next general election in 1914 Then if
the people favored the proposition the
Legislature of 1915 could pass the act
giving its consent. The only thing
that would then remain to be done
would be to have the act creating the
state of West Florida passed by Con-
gress. Congress would hardly refuse
to pass the act If the people should
vote for the proposition in a general
election, it is declared.
