PEN PICTURE OF WOODROW Will
SON

President-elect Wilson is described
as a fine specimen of manhood-phys-
ically, morally and Intellectually. he
is six feet tall and over: erect and
commanding. His eyes are blue; his
hair gray and straight. His face Is
long and almost narrow. His nose de-
notes Judgment; his upper lip and
chin speak frmness, but not stubborn
ness He looks the fighter, but is the
antipode of the bully or braggart. HIS
voice is firm rather than persuasive.
His presence is his label, i am
mani" He is scholarly. His letter OF
acceptance is a classic. 1t is belieV-
ed that his inaugural address will be
a model 1t is hoped that his admins
tration will be such that it Will re-
dound to good government, and make
our republic a beacon light for all ma
tons Representative government is
the dream of the ages, and this paper
sincerely hopes that Woodrow VIII
sons administration will pOpularize
representative government and make
it endure for all time.

in glancing over the lives of the
English poets we can but be grieved
over their trials, struggles and temp
tations, but despite their being impris-
.oned for debt, and living on crusts
and in garrets, the English govern
ment has done one thing that this
country has never done. In order to
stimulate literary pursuits she has
given annuities, bounties and pen
sians not only to her poets but to her

The dangers lurking this bill, and

been making speeches advocating the

Wood urged it during his recent visit

EDITOR JOE REESE ON A PRO.
TECTlVE TARIFF

The Orange County Citizen took the
trouble to write to William Chase
Temple Of the Citrus Exchange and
send him the Gazette editorial con
ceruins that genueman's testimony
before the ways and means commit
tee. The Citizen wanted MI Temple
to say that the Gazette had misrepre-
scented him Mr. Temple wouldn't
say SO and the Citizen then said 50
itself by referring to the article as a
Misleading Editorial"
We find upon careful scrutiny that
the only excuse the Citizen has for
making such a statement is the Ga
zette's statement that Mr.. Temple
asked for the protection of his own
Investments in the citrus industry,
aggregating a quarter of a million,
whereas Mr.. William Chase Temple
asserted himself to be a philanthro-
pist, and asked protection for the en-
tire industry and not for himself.
This is a distinction that does not
in the least change the situation; it is
the distinction between tweedledee
and tweedledum. Just for the fun of
the thing we should like to see the
Orange County Citizen and Mr.. VIII
liam Chase Temple engage in a joint
debate and explain how Mr.. Temple
could plead for the protection of the
entire citrus industry without asking
for a protection of his own interest
in that industry.
The Gazette does not wish to be
misunderstood in it's contention for
an honest revision of the tariff. We
are just as much opposed to having
any Florida industry cripped as any
one could be, but if we are going in to
fight for a protective tariff, let US, for
the sake of consistency, relinquish our
demands that the industries of other
states shall bear the burden of the
proposed reductions.
If our people will make a searching
effort to find the basis of their inabil-
ity to put their products in the mar
kets in competition with like pro-
ducts from other lands they will find
that an equalization of freight rates
is the solution of the problem.
The transportation companies are
very glad to divert the attention of
the producers and the consumers
from the real cause They all cry,
Look to the tariff" and here we go,
heller SHELTER, clamoring for protec-
ton, forgetful of our pledges as DEM
ocrats and overlooking the cormorant
that is gnawing at the very vitals of
our industries.
Isn't it the right time now, stand
ing on the threshold of the first DEM
ocratic administration for a genera
ton, for US to take an inventory of
our political stock, and proceed with
that honesty and deliberation plight
ed by the party in national council as
sembled. -Kissimme Gazette.

A female writer in the World says:
Does not our dual code of morals
tend to show the necessity for the
participation of women in the affairs
of the great household which we call
the state? Does anyone believe that
when the political equality of men
and women has been established wo-
men will long continue to be persecut-
Ell and prosecuted for a crime for
which men are not punished in the
slightest degree?" Justice declares
that what this writer says is correct
There should not be a dual code of
morals. Men should not be measured
by one yard stick and women by an
other. What is sauce for the goose
should likewise be sauce for the gan
der. When there is a dual represent
alton in the making of the laws all
this will be changed, and men and
women will be placed on the ,ame
moral plan. The obliquity in the man
no more than in the woman will be
condoned. Instead of lowering. it
viii strengthen, the moral standard.

A young woman came To me for elm
Iployment few days ago. asked her
what she could do. and she answered.
Nothing" There was place where
the downward drag had good
chance. Neither her brains nor her
hanA had ever been taught to do
practical work. Training In some vo-
cational work has a distinct moral
and mental value. II takes away che
conditions under which the downward
drag gets Its best hold. There are
many father sand mothers whose
lives would be happier II their chill
dren could find education In some
definite work In life, SO that they
could not only assist their parents.
but could keep their own bodies and
souls together In decency.
Many a mother who knows the path
OF danger she herself trod would like
to have the path made safer for her
boys and girls. Employers here and
there are decOgnizing the principle OF
q minimum wage for women and men.
They gain thereby selected force
which makes their business highly
profitable; yet. were the principle OF
the minimum wage to be extended to
universal practical application, how
many of our boys and girls are
trained In any class Of work to make
the minimum wage plan possible? SO
we must teach our boys and girls in
schools established for that particu-
lar purpose.
We must not put our girls un-
taught out into the work OF self-sup-
port. under conditions which tend TO
moral strain.
We know there are conditions which
lead to nervous breakdowns and we
do not tie ourselves down TO a mathe-
matical value for Righteousness when
We say that there are. or there may
