country, and yet that was the only
contingency foreseen by the authors

approach the state department on
the subject. If we fail there We will
apply for writ of habeas corpus,

The lawyers suggested that the
case might rise eventually in an

The revival meeting at the Cum

yesterday with most encouraging in
terest and satisfactory attendance.

pastor, Rev. j. d. Lewis.

THE SELECTION OF
PUBLIC SERVANTS

Tomorrow the people of Florida
will employ a number of servants at
salaries ranging from $500 a year
on down. Nominally the men will be
employed in November, but as mat
ter of fact all will be settled in June.
Some have been pressing their
claims for several months. The
early bird catches the worm, but the
early candidate is more apt than
otherwise to fatigue those from
whom he is seeking employment, and
by talking his chances to death give
the place to less clamorous rival,
says an exchange.
Now, we must not forget that
Florida is the employer and that the
men are to be employed to serve
her. The one thing to be considered
is the service these men will render.
If one were employing cook, he
would not employ the one who pro-
fessed to love him best. He would
select one that he considered the
best cook, Well, a senator or a rep
resentative or a State or county Of
fetal is as important as cook, and
should be selected with as much
care. Really more care should be
exercised, for any man who has
nerve enough can fire a cook when
ever he pleases, but these public ser
wants are employed for terms of two,
'our, or six years. So it is we'll not

you have an employe in your private
business who is rendering services
entirely satisfactory, you will keep
him, no matter what an applicant
for his position may promise. If
you have one whose service is not
satisfactory, either through lack of
fidelity or lack of ability, you will
get some one in his place-the one
who can offer you the best proofs
that his service will be satisfactory.
Every man should apply the COM
mon sense that governs his conduct
in his private business to his public
business So we say to the voters,
don't select man because he wants
the place. Pick out the one who will
fill the place best and put HIM in.

was to deliver speech on his sena-

place where the hair ought to grow.
Well sir, Mr.. Stockton kept get
ting faster and fiercer than ever. He
everlastingly knocked out all the
newspapers that opposed him, and
slashed everything in sight or mag
ination that was not for him. He
told or intimated that Mr.. Fletcher
had been bought over by two men
in South Florida to introduce bulls
from South America to be slaugh-
tered in Florida to the damage of
the cattle growers here. He said
that Mr.. Fletcher took $4,000 of
the peoples money to make a tour
