Pulse of Court House Justice

Lakeland Telegram: AS is usual in
the administration of justice in this
country, the first step in the trial of
Mendenhall for the murder of Mrs.
Elliot and her daughter was to post
pone the case. We don't know
whether Mendenhall is guilty or not
and don't feel called on to express any
opinion on the subject, but it would
seem that a lapse of ten days after
the arrest of the man would give his
lawyers plenty of time to at least pre-
pare for preliminary investigation.
The pulse Of court house Justice Of
ten beats very feebly when there are
plenty of good lawyers to assist in
regulating its speed, and that's one
reason among others why the pulse
of the mob huns like the motor of a
high-powered runaway car when il
takes hand in administering Justice

TURKISH SPY SYSTEM.
It Not Only Keeps Tab Upon Strangers.
but Spies Upon Itself.

bHs SP'SS SP0' ieSS''
Turkey boasts of more spies to the
square mile than any other country,
as any one who has been to Turkey
will agree.
The peculiar thing about these spies
is that they themselves cannot be
trusted, SO that regular chain of
spies is the result. There are spies to
spy upon the spies.
The government officials have their
own spies to watch other people. but
even the great authorities themselves
are already being spied upon.
What is more. the method of spying
is quite open. for the spies will stand
by wherever two or three foreigners
are gathered together and listen to the
conversation. Visitors to Turkey natu-
rally get worried over such attentions,
especially when it might be their bad
luck to be followed about for weeks or
months.
1t is the "uninitiated" visitor who
usually receives the most attention,
since he or she will carry on conver-
sation in a quiet undertone. The per-
son who knows Turkey converses in a
loud tone for all and sundry-the spies
especially-to hear that he is only en-
gagged in pleasure or legitimate bust.

FARM DEMONSTRATOR
HAS BEEN PROVIDED
County Commissioners Make
Levy of One-Quarter
Mill for Purpose.

AS a result of continuous agitation
on the part of the Palatka board of
trade and The Palatka News, together
with the growing public demand on
the part of the progressive farmers
of the county, the Putnam county
board of county commissioners has
agreed on special levy of one-quar-
ter of mill on the taxable property
of the county for the purpose of en-
ploying Farm Demonstrtor in con-
nection with the National Department
of Agriculture.
The Department has a fund from
which it appropriates 5000 a year to-
ward the payment of the salary of a
Farm Demonstrator in any county
in the land which will take the mat
ter in hand and agree to supply the
balance of the salary needed to Sc
cure good demonstration More
than 30 counties in Florida already
have the Demonstrators. Putnam
county has provided enough so that
the aid received from the Department
will make sufficient salary to provide
a high-class man, and without high
class man in the place it might as
well be empty.
The Farm Demonstration for the
county will be selected by Prof. C. X.
McQuarrie of Gainesville, who is in
charge of demonstration work in
Florida.
This act on the part of the county
commissioners marks the beginning
of progressive agricultural methods
in Putnam county and should meet
the approval of every farmer and
business man. Florida has its agri.
cultural college to which our young
men are going every year in larger
and larger numbers; they go to this
college for advanced information and
on agricultural topics. The Farm
Demonstration carries this informa-
ton to the people who do not seek
it and by practical demonstration Sc
cures the adoption of advanced meth
ods.

Jury Declares Thaw Sane.

Harry X. Thaw, the slayer of STAN
ford White, was declared sane by a
jury in the supreme court of New
York on Wednesday after about an
hours deliberation. The jury is ac-
ting only in an advisory capacity. The
real verdict will be given later by
Justice Hendrick, who did not init
mate whether he would be guided by
the verdict of the jury or not. The
judge has reserved his decision. In
his charge to the jury reviewing the
legal aspects of the case, Justice
Hendrick told them they were not tc
concern themselves with any previ
vious acts of Thaw as such, but "the
question to be determined is whether
Thaw is sane now."

Polluted Farm Waters.

In selecting a country home for
the summer special attention should
be given to the question of a pure wa
ter supply. Farms, which are gener-
ally remote from towns, cities, or 9th
er areas of congested population
seem to be almost ideally situated for
obtaining pure and wholesome water
In reality, however, polluted water is
exceedingly common on farms, and
| typhoid-fever rates are usually great
er in country districts than in cities.
| Typhoid fever is transmitted largely
in drink or food taken into he stom-
ach and is especially likely to be COM
munieated by polluted waters obtain
ed from shallow wells near spots
where the discharges of typhoid pa
tients have been deposited and sub
sequently carried into tie wells. end
| it is doubtless principally this fact
that makes the disease so common in
farming regions.
The sources of the water used on
the farm are numerous-lakes.
streams, springs, wells of various
kinds, and cisterns-all being extern
Isively used, although the wc.ter from
lakes and streams is generally uced
only for stock. Each of these sourc-
es under some conditions may yield
entirely safe and satisfactory sup
plies, while under other conditions
certain of them may be a constant
menace to health.
Of the various sources of water
supply the ground water is tie most
satisfactory for farm use, because it
lis least liable to pollution. and
streams and ponds are the most IN
satisfactory, because of the ease end

of slight general pollution is nc+ SER
lous, though some severe epideinics
of disease among cattle have been
traced to polluted strcal2s. The un-
derground supplies, whether from
wells or springs. although safe In
many localities, are far from being
universally so, the safety depending
mainly on their location and on the
nature of their protection.

Tampa Times: The most widely
quoted editorial published in Florida
recently is that of Editor ]. Il. Hen-
jamin of the Ocala Star, on This
Wages of Sin Stuff" which was
written in connection with the Men
denhail-Eliot tragedy.
Among the most notable sentences
of this brief philosphic treat is this /:
Talking about the wages of sin is
mostly mockery. The sinners are
generally the ones most lightly paid.
The burden always falls on the inno-
cent. Even in this case, Mendenhall
will probably suffer far less than his
own wife and daughter, or than Eliot,
the husband and father of the mur-
dered women"
Mr.. Benjamin is right Retribu-
ton always overtakes the wrongdoer
in the long run, but consider the
hellish suffering that he or she in
jects into the lives of innocent, duty
adhering people before and after his
or her career of sin ends.

they bring infinitely more agony to

Water VS.. Spineless Cactus

Jacksonville Dixie: State Chem
ist R. E. Rose has punctured the

and says that it will pay better to

The report of the State chemist in
this relation will prevent cattle own
ers from feeding stock on this pro-
duct. The cattle can get all the
water they want from creeks, ponds,
etc, and it is less expensive than the
spineless cactus.
The cactus is not ornamental, and
since the State chemists puncture
some new use must be found for it.
