BETTER NOT TAKE THE CHANCE

No language can describe the
black despair which overwhelms the
human soul when that soul by its
own premeditated act leaps into the
void called death. It is a thing so
awful to do that in its presence crit
icism Is silent and we withhold the
words of condemnation out OF sheer
pity for the agonized creature mad
dened by intolerable pain Of mind or
body who could bear it no longer and
took the desperate alternative.
But 1t is frightful gambling. and
no matter In what extremity man
may find himself it is doubtful if
he is ever justified in taking such a
step. We can all imagine an en-
vironment where suicide might be
the richt thing to do, but such cases
are 50 rare that they are negligible
in considering the subject on its
moral side. Hardly a day passes
that we do not read OF one or more

THE RIGHT WAY TO
LOOK AT IT

Col. Walton, who has recently as
sumed editorial management Of the
Orlando Reporter Star, in discussing
the preposterous charges made by
National Committeeman Crawford
against Senator Fletcher, says with
| admirable good sense:
THE writer is new man in Flor
ida and confesses that he is not as
we'll acquainted with the public men
as he would wish, but he is learning
before he goes ahead. We don't
want to do any one injustice, so will
think twice before we speak >
That is precisely the right atti
tude which new man should take
toward politics, especially personal
politics, here In Florida, and was
nothing more than was to be expect
ed from veteran at the game like
Colonel Walton who knows all about
Kentucky politics and public men
but Is too new in this State to be ia
miliar with the subject here. So far
as the charges Crawford brings
against Senator Fletcher are con-
cerned, 1t is enough to say that they
have been disproven in detail by Mr..
Cathcart, gentleman intimately IA
miliar with the matter, in the Flor
Ida Metropolis of Jan. 5, and Craw-
ford ought now to subside, for he
seems to have mistaken a personal
crouch against Senator Fletcher for
grave omissions OF public duty on
the part of that gentleman The
solid record of Duncan U. Fletcher
In the Senate will not be made to do |
the vanishing act at the bidding of |
who do not personally like
him and for that reason chiefly want |
to see him defeated in the coming

ALL TOBACCO EXAMINERS
TO MEET IN TAMPA

Jacksonville. Jan. 6.-All the ex-
aminers of tobacco for the United
States government will meet in Tam
pa Jan. 20, for the purpose of estab-
fishing standards for grades for the
next year, and to get into closer
touch with each other. Collector of
Customs j F. G.. Griggs has noti-
ned the weighers at Key West and
Tampa. and they will both take part
in the meeting. The tobacco ex-
aminers may be in session more than
one day, but it all depends on the
work they find awaiting them, Flor
ida is honored and Tampa paid a
special compliment in the selection
of that city by. the department for
the congregating of all the examin-
ers In the service, but the total is
not known at this time. It Is prob
able that Judge Griggs will be in
Tampa during the sessions as the col
lector for the district in which they
meet, to show his official and per
sonal appreciation of the compliment
that has been given the State.

WHY re QUIT

/ There was quite a bit Of comment
/ over the receut action OF Dr. Atkis-
son, the well known Methodist min
lstcr d the Florida conference in
quitting hoth the ministry and the
church It WIS IN unusual thing to
do and The comment was natural I'M
der the circumstances Dr.. Atkis-
son is now citizen Of Miami in the
real estate business, and the Miami
Herald explains his recent action as
follows:
Or. Atkisson withdrew from the
organization to which he has devoted
himself SO long and with such abil-
ity, because he found that he had
become out of touch with the aims
and the methods of the denomination
and like an honest man he withdrew
This is not an unique instance of
withdrawing from the ministry or
the denominations. There have been
constant exchanges made from one
to another by the changing attitude
of mems minds, and is a result Of
the deeper study that men are giving
the question of religion and church
policy. Men are broadening out,
ministers are gaining wider views
and as they do they will shake off
the narrowing denominations
chains and get out into the fair and
open air Of freedom where they may
work for the good of all humanity
under broader and more catholic
than they held before
There is very decided trend toward
more liberal views on all religious
subjects and men who will not and
cannot be bound by the narrow view
Of their particular organization are
getting out into the open where they
can breath more freely and work
more effectually for the spread of
the real Kingdom of Christ. .

Travellers Kimono.

One feels a hesitancy about appear
Ing before strangers in kimono OF
any description; but ofttimes, especial
ly in a sleeping car, such an appear
ance is unavoidable.
1t is surprising how much more com.

spicuous one feels in kimono or neg
ligee of subdued colors, and 1t IS

The Jacksonville News philoso-
phises as follows:
1T is waste OF printers ink to
roast an editor, anyway. He isn't
going to get mad. II he replies the
waste is doubled. There isn't a news
paper in the State but what is an i'm
portant factor in its growth. 1t is a
serious responsibility. A fling at
another newspaper, or another Flor
ida city, doesn't help any"
That is all true as an abstract
proposition. but when you come
right down to the concrete fact that
some other editor is roasting you or
your home town. you are going to
hit back If you've got any red blood
in your veins. aud if you don't, your
readers will rise up as one man and
pronounce you no good.
