longings of the poor and the dreams
of the solitary enthusiasts were at
last affirmed as axioms in the mani
festo of nation, so that all the world
might hear" There is nothing new
under the sun and all glory to Rous-
seau, bit Rousseau's philosophy, with
out the practical power of our Sigh
ners," would never have gotten any
where. That the revolutionary ideas
should have started in France and fl
nally returned to the starting point
with wonderful momentum gained
from the force of our own revolution
was but a fitting elimination.
wonder if we remember, too, that
our static of Liberty Enlightening
the World in New York Harbor, was
given to us by French sculptor. To
celebrate it's completion, a banquet
was held in Paris. 1t was there that
M. Laboulaye gave the toast of eter-
nal friendship between France and
America. They are also lovers of
liberty and we are mutually devoted
to the cause Of popular government
and universal progress.
introduction of the department of po-
litical science in the Woman's Club is
a step toward the education of wo-
men along lines, important and al
most imperative. 1t is hoped that
the department will receive the sup
port of all the members.

enforce the law. Penalties to be paid

ton of offenders. A committee COM
posed of DR.. D. C. Main and M. R.
Miller will this week go to st. Aug,ls-'
tine to confer with Hon. G.. M. Cor
bett regarding the amalgamation of
fresh and salt water fishermen. 1t
is hoped there will be several hun
dred people in attendance at the
meeting Saturday evening. Those in
terested in Georgetown, Crescent
City, Palatka and surrounding dis
tricts are urged to attend to lend their
aid and support. How worthy the
object and intentions are of the asso-
citation may be summed by the follow
ing facts. In the state of Florida
there are more than ten thousand men,
thus occupied for a livelihood. Over
eleven and half million dollars worth
OF fish and oysters are exported an
nually and over two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars are annually invest
ed in apparatus, fishing boats, gaso-
line, etc. The revenues obtained from
taxation and licensing would more
than pay the expenditures incurred by
the state and leave substantial SIR
plus. All dealers in the state were
notified this week by the association of
the immediate action necessary to take
and asking for their cooperation.

The Woman's Club Meeting.

The Woman's Club sometimes
makes a tremendous hit with an au-
dience. Friday was one of the times.
Visitors and members were more than
entertained with the program produc-
ed. Who can imagine more inspiring
subjects than these-"The Origin of
the American Republic" "Constitu-
tional Convention" Revolt of the
Colonies" etc?
Col. Hilburn surpassed himself in
his address on political Science" and
"Are Women Worth While" by Dr.Sa-
rah Davis, struck the keynote of the
song of freedom which the men OF
our nation have been singing Sc
proudly in trumpet bass. voice. The
women are most certainly going to
join in the chorus. 1t needs sopra-
ne, you know; and the glorious song
of freedom will burst forth from down
trodden sopranos, all the more joyous
ly, perhaps, because Of ages and ages
of oppression and suppression. The
doctor very aptly referred to the wise
Solomon's remarks on the thrifty
housewife, proving conclusively that
everybody works but father"
A lot of ground was covered in this
program-all the way from the first
Declaration of independence, which
included men only, right up to the
threshold of the emancipation of wo-
man.
Seriously though, you know, those
men who gave us the Declaration of
Independence and framed our consti-
tuition were wise men, and game, 100.
The ideas embodied in our writ of
Independence are old as Adam and
Eve, but to strike out on new lines,
and break over as they did, was moth
ing short of a game stunt. In think
ing them over, Thomas Jefferson al
ways stands out foremost-the great
/ est statesman of his time and type
of the highest civilization attained up
to that time. In all history, he is in
comparably the greatest exponent of
civic government and of political
rights not dependent on militancy.
Before his time the only theories in
government were that of the heavier
cannon and that of the divine right of
the holders of power to do as they
pleased The fallacy of this is
brought home to us today with ire
mendous effect. To the High school
pupil who continually proclaims the
cutter uselessness" of Latin and the
classics, | would like to emphasize
the fact that jefferson was above all
things a student and a scholar of the
first rank. He was we'll educated in
languages, in mathematics, in the
sciences and in music. 1t was from
his study of the classics that he ac-
CURED his knowledge of republicanism
as it existed in the pagan epoch.
From his French studies he assimi-
lated the ideas of the great writers
of the 18th century, who strove to
make it clear that freedom was the
first essential to real intellectual pro-
.gress. In fact, James Russell Lowell,
in the North American Review dated
July 1876, says-"Rousscau was the
father of modern democracy and with
out him our Declaration of Independ-
ence would have wanted some of those
sentences in which the immemorial

he voted at all times in
with the rules Of the Sen
ate as he understood them. In a let
ter to the editor Senator Bryan says:
81 have some respect for these rules.
If these rules are not what they ought
to be, they ought to be changed, but,
while they exist, they ought to be
obeyed. In the caucus, l was in ia
vor of amending the bill, so that when
the emergency brought about by the
war was over, the government might
withdraw instead of continuing per
manently in the shipping business
The caucus reached different con
clusion, and l HAVE ABIDED BY

cry VOTE HAVE HAD OPPOR
TUNITY TO CAST"
The News regrets that it shoul'
have been one of the papers mislea'
by this vote of Senator Bryan on ;
purely parliamentary question, but i
like other papers in the country, wa
misled by the press dispatches whicl
placed our junior senator among tn
insurgent democrats.
No matter what the Senator ma.
. have thought concerning the bill, tn
record shows that his votes were il
complete harmony with the will o
the democratic caucus.

JOE SEARS,
CONGRESSMAN.

Our editorial friend, Triplett, of
the st. Cloud Tribune is evidently a
great admirer of Congressman-elect
Joe Sears, inasmuch as he refers to
him as "the Hon. w. Joseph Sears,
he of the eagle eye and massive
BRAIN" The eagle eye and massive
brain will come in handy in Congress,
all right, but we hope the Hon. Jo-
seph won't have the experience of a
western congressman who said
"When | was a member of our town
council out home | thought | was a
pretty big fellow; when l got to the
Legislature l received considerable at
tentiOn, but when | finally reached
Washington | found Congressman so
common along Pennsylvania avenue
that they tied horses to 'em.
We notice that the Hon. Joe has
been up there lately to get "acquaint-
ed with the ropes they are to tie
him with.

"Put Yourself in His Place"

Chas. Miller was up before Justice
John E. Marshall last Monday charg-
ed with shooting with intent to kill
Julius Gushaver and another man
named Bank at an early hour Sunday
morning.
Chas. Miller is fisherman; he con-
ducts his business at a point on the
river near the mouth of Dunn's Creek.
Just now is the shad season and he
was prepared for this class of fish.
His nets were spread. Miller was not
engaged in fishing on Sunday. His
nets were working quietly for him.
Along came these two men and see
ing the nets they made up their minds
that Miller was fishing contrary to
law on Sunday. They thought the
nets would be good evidence and they
made up their minds to take them
along. They took the nets. Miller
saw them as they were leaving; he
made after them; testimony shows
that they fired at Miller; Miller then
returned the fire; testimony shows he
fired at them "a times; he used duck
shot; testimony showed that three or
four of these small shot hit the men
who were making off with Miller's
nets.
The men had no right to the nets;
they transgressed the law when they
took them. Miller simply defended
his property. The men were inform
ers and wcrf out to make an "honest
dollar" They were not badly injur-
ed, not nearly so badly as the circum-
stances seem to warrant. BIZ Miller
was held to the grand jury. His loss
is fully $3.50.

SENATOR BRYAN
REMAINS TRUE.

The daily papers of the country at
the outset of the controversy in the
United States Senate over the "Ship-
ping Bill referred to Senator N. p.
Eryan of this State as among those
voting with the republicans.
The Palatka News, among several
other papers of the State, relying on
the correctness these press reports,
referred to our junior senator as a
traitor to the democratic party"
This appears to have been hasty
and unwaranted designation.
The facts are that after Senator
Fletcher offered his amendment, Sen
ator Smoot moved to lay it on the ia
BILE, and that Senator Bryan voted
"No." Pages 29sS and 29S9 of the
Congressional Record of February LIST
shows the following:
Senator Clarke, an opponent of the
bill moved to reconsider it. Senator
Fletcher, in charge of the bill, raised
the point that the motion was not in
order. The vice president sustained
the point of order. Senator Clarke
appealed. The question then was,
should the decision of the chair stand
as the judgment of the Senate" I'm
like most of his democratic associates,
Senator Byran voted in the negative,
basing his vote on Clause of Rule
Is, which provides that it shall be in
order, at any time before the passage
of any bill, to move its commitment.
The decision of the Chair was over
ruled by vote of 81 to 46. Senator
Stone, a friend of the bill, then moved
to adjourn. Senator Bryan voted in
the Affirmative, but the motion was de-
feated, by a vote of sc yeas and AZ
nays. Then Senator Stone moved to
lay Senator Clarke's motion to recon-
nit on the table. Senator Bryan
voted in the affirmative, but the mo-
ton was defeated, the yeas being AZ
and the nays "A.
While it is true that in this parli-
mentary shirmish Senator Bryan vot-
ed on at least one occasion with the
republicans and the seven democratic

When you invest in the vicinity of $1,000 or
more in a car think not Of the name of the
car, not if its plice-but of what the car
must do when you get it on teh roads.
Hills there are and always will be. POWER
you must have to climb them. And all things
considered We believe this new Studebaker
4-cylinder car at $685. is the greatest hill
climber among the Fours Of the year-and
we will gladly-more than gladly-test it
against any other car Of its class.
IN POWER and flexibility, this 4-cylinder

reduced from $985 to $685.. Yet nothing but
the price has been lessened. In POWER,
