masked men unsuccessfully attempt
ed TO burn the power plant of the
Tampa Electric company near here
early today after binding the en-

police have received. One of the en-

flames before much damage had been
done. There have been no arrests.

sTURKIE MAKES A STATEMENT
Says He is Against Cats and that
Knott Spoke Too Soon
Tampa Times)

Mr.. Sturkie was in the city this
morning on his way to Bradentown
where he is to try law case this aft
ernoon. He called the Times office on
the telephone to ask if the Times had
seen the statement from Knott print
ed in the Times Union yesterday. The
Times had a copy of the statement
and asked Mr.. Sturkie his opinion of
the charges. made.
sIt is one of the meanest and most
contemplate things have ever
seen" said he. 81 can't conceive of
any reason why Knott should do such
an idiotic thing.
81 am Knott man, always have
been a Knott man and shall vote for
him for governor, even in spite of this,
for I wouldn't vote for that old hypo-
critic aCatts for anything. But why
should he accuse me of being traitor
to him? have worked for him, spent
my money for him, gone into law
suits for him and done everything
possible for one. man to do for an
other in a political way.
"As to the charges he mades, there
isn't a thing in the world to them. |
have never been for Cats and don't
expect to be-"
"How did Knott get the idea that
you were hostile to him? ?" Mr.. Sturkie
was asked.
81 can't imagine, unless it was be-
cause of a little joke statement |
made before newspaper man in
Jacksonville the other day. he re-
piled. ''He asked me what I thought
of the situation and said in a joking
way, oh, / guess old Cats was elect
ed all right
cat the same time / winked to
some others who were standing with
me and ] never thought the reporter
took me seriously. If / had / should
have corrected the impression"
Knott Needs His Friends
Mr.. Sturkie was energetic in his
condemnation OF Knott Tor making
pablic such a statement without con-
sultation with linn to see if the con-
clusions Knott had reached were cor
rect.
Knott is in no position to lose any
of his friends" said Sturkie. He
ought to be a bit more careful about
how he alienates them with fool
things of this sort"
He made it very clear, however,
that he was for Knott and not for
reason or under any consideration for
Cats.
1--WE been fighting that bunch of
hypocrites all the way through this
campaign, said he. "And | couldn't
he for Cats if I wanted to-"

CATS is KATZ
(Orlando Reporter-Sta

(Orlando Reporter-Star)
S. j. Cats in his speech to the citi-
zens of Gotha, who largely are of
German descent, stated that his fam
lily came from Germany; that the
German form of his name was Katz;
that he believed in the cause of the
Germans in the present war and
hoped they would win against the en-
tente allies. All of this might have
been stated in truth and sincerity, but
it has the seeming of sham and pre-
tense. 1t was intended solely to cap
ture the vote of the Gotha precinct,
but we are greatly mistaken in our
appraisal of those sturdy and sensi-
BILE citizens if they are swayed by
such shallow platitudes.
