PALATKA DECIDES
FOR new CHARTER
Which will Embrace the
Commission Form Of
Government.

Chief interest in the municipal cleo
tion last Tuesday centered over the
question of a change from the present
system of representative government
through aldermen to the commission
form, which is rapidly being adopted
by representative cities throughout
the United States.
But little educational work was
done, and many did not fully under
stand the real scope of the movement,
but nevertheless when it was explain
ed that it meant centering of res
possibility upon a few men who would
be selected for their special fitness
for the work of municipal manage
ment, they readily fell in with the
idea
All of the wards, with the excep-
tion of the Sixth, (colored ward) gave
majorities for the new charter. In
the Sixth the vote was 9 for, and 26
against the change.
A light vote was polled, but of the
total I'll were for the new commits
sion form charter and 67 against.
Hon. S. j. Kennerly for mayor, and
the entire city ticket, was elected
without opposition.
Mr.. Kennerly will take office i'm
mediately on the issuance of his GER
tifcate of election. The new council
will qualify next Tuesday night.

CHAIRMAN ALvERS
GIVES A DINNER
To County Commissioners
and a few Friends.

Last Tuesday the members of the
board of County Commissioners and
few invited guests went over to
Satsuma Hights and inspected the
new county shell road which has just
been completed by Contractor Tucker
and which connects Satsuma Hights
with Sisco, some three miles further
south. This is shell road of De-
Leon Springs shell and the work
seems to have been conscientiously
performed. The commissioners have
accepted the work and made the final
payment Of $1,795.
After the inspection Commissioner
Alvers invited all to his home, only q
short distance away, to dinner. They
were met on arrival by Mrs. Alvers
who gave all an old-fashioned, cor
dial welcome in her most graciously
hospitable manner, and it wasn't long
before the party of IL were seated at
the table. 1t was a turkey dinner,
and such one as is only served by
the presiding genius of home
where peace and plenty reign. The
table was loaded with every compan-
ion dish that could be imagined ap-
propriate to such dinner, and the
party was soon fully engaged, and
did full justice.
Mr.. and Mrs. Alvers certainly
know the secrets of playing the
agreeable host and hostess, and it is
doubtful if any of their guests ever
forget the pleasures of their boun-
tiful table and the good cheer which
accompanied the eating.

vile, who are interested in road work.
Mrs. Alvers was assisted in the re-
ceiving and care of her guests by her
daughter, Mrs. o. F. Alvsrs of Sat-
suma Hights.
The party went over in automo-
biles which were rendered for the oc-
casion by Sheriff Kennerly, w s..
Middleton and one of the gentlemen
from Jacksonville.
On the return trip the party went
over the proposed road through the
pleted will form the new road to We
laka and Nashua. Mr.. W. o. RIGHT
man, superintendent of the farm
showed all through the camphor dis
tillery and explained much of the
work of the farm, and he with F. V.
Owen of Satsuma made it clear to
the board that the new road was a
much needed improvement.

Big Real Estate Deal.

Mrs. Anna C. Harris of Boston,
who has owned for some time consid-
cradle property at East Palatka, has
only recently sold some of her most
valuable holdings to gentlemen in this
city.
Among these pieces was one known
as the old Lozier grove property.
This was sold to Cornelius Carmar.
The piece contained some 68 acres,
fronts on the river and contains d
bearing grove of some 35 acres, be-
sides fine residence, barns, packing
houses, tools and implements, etc.
The consideration is said to have
been $4,000, but has not been made
public. Mr.. Carman is one of Palat-
ka's leading business men and is en-
gagged extensively in dry goods. He
is a man who knows values, and he
certainly has made here a purchase
that all who know the property will
consider one of exceptional value.
Rev. J. D. Laplante, rector OF St
Monicas Catholic church also pur-
chased of Mrs. Harris the ten acres
of river front property near the fork
of the San Mateo and Hastings roads,
and next adjoining the Browning mill
property. The place has long been
known as Travellers Rest" and in
dications are that it will continue to
more than deserve the name. Father
Laplante has in contemplation the
erection of home on the property for
aged and worn out professors and
priests of the religious order known
as Clerics of St. Viator, of which or
der he is a member. So far his plans
are in no ways matured, but this is a
thought he had in mind when ne
bought the place.

POTATO OUTLOOK
MOST PROMISING
Advance Sales at Hastings
This Week Show SIS Per
Barrel.
East Palatka Farmers Will Begin Dig
ging Next Week.

H. L. Chase one of the progressive
potato farmers of East Palatka was
in the city Wednesday and reported
seeing a check for $1,010 given Il
Hastings farmer on Tuesday for 20o
barrels of potatoes. That is an even
SIS barrel at the Hastings depot.
Other equally reliable reports show
that early shipments have this week
brought $3.50 per barrel in the New
York market.
Shipments will begin going for
ward rapidly during the next few
days, and the prospects look bright
for a record making yield and price
for the Hastings, Orange Mills, Fed
eral Point and East Palatka tubers.
A trip through the potato fields of
these places would be revelation to
many citizens Of this county who have
only hearsay knowledge of the extent
Of this potato growing industry.
Last week in company with Mr.. j..
H. Millican a representative of the
News visited the East Palatka Sec
ion and saw enough to convince him
that the potato farmers of that place
are "strictly in it" for this season.
One field contains $50 acres, and
others run from 10 and 20 to go acre
fields. Mr.. Millican has field of 60
acres, one section of which is an ear
ly variety now ready for shipment.
He expects to begin shipping on Mon
day. W. A. Walton has some 70
acres of fine looking potatoes and he,
too, expects to begin shipping on
Monday. H. o. Hamm has big field
and Thos. Waldron has three fields
of 20 acres each and his potatoes are
looking extra fine.
These are only a few samples of
what is being done in the potato line
at East Palatka.
The yield this year per acre also
promises to be heavy. One man
at Federal Point states that he is now
digging rs barrels to the acre. The
yield varies; in some places it has
run as low as 25 barrels to the acre,
and on up to 40, so, 60, 10 and in one
or two instances as high as 100 bar
rels per acre have been dug.
This will be big year in the po-
tato diggins.
