LITTLE GIRL WITH
SANDSPUR IN
THROAT, SUFFERS
GREATLY

Little Anna Bryan, the eleven
year+old daughter of Mr.. T. NJ. Bry-
an, is in a rather serious condition
because of an unusual and very pain
full accident. A sandspur became
lodged in her throat yesterday after
noon, and up to this writing all eff
forts to dislodge it had been unsuc-
cessful. The little girl was return
ing from school, when she removed a
sandspur that had adhered to her
stocking, and which instead of drop
ping to the ground, as she supposed,
chung to her fingers. A little later
she put her hand to her mouth, and
the sandspur in some way was
drawn down into her throat and
lodged there. She suffered intense
ly, and was rushed to a physician S
Office where an anaesthetic was ad-
ministered, and an effort made to
dislodge the sandspur, but without
avail, owing to its peculiarly mac
oessible location. A further attempt
To remove the annoying substance
will be made this evening. Mean
while she has suffered acutely.

Sec. HOLW0RTHY
/ fAVOUS TURNING
CLOCKS Up TO
GET one MORE
HOUR DAYLIGHT

In speaking of the benefits to be
received by turning the clocks of the
State up an hour, thus gaining an
extra hour of daylight, Secretary
Holworthy said today:
From time to time. there has been
a good deal of agitation in various
parts of the State on the subject of
making longer days and burning less
daylight, and, while the matter has
been treated much in the light of a
joke, there is much reason in the
question: why should the people
of Florida be regulated by the same
time as the people of New Mexico,
nearly 1000 miles west of this
Slater" Or, rs there any reason why
we should be sleeping during the
best part of any day in the year,
with the shades drawn to keep out
the sunlight, and then go home from
the workshop or office to artificially
lighted honest" The only reason
apparent is that. thirty years or
more ago, a system Of Standard Time
was formulated. the country being
divided into four zones, the center
being apart fifteen longitudinal de-
grees, exactly one hour sun time,
and, by bad arrangement, Florida
was not included in the Eastern
time program. In the summer time,
when we should have long summer
evening, the sun sets at 6:30, and
there is little twilight here. When
the sun sets in this State, therefore,
at 6:3C, and it is $50 in New Mex
leo, the people of that western State
have nearly two hours of daylight.
By a simple process (which has
been put in operation in Europe, and
in this country, too, for purely eco
nomic reasons and which would not
disturb business or social conditions
in the least), on a certain midnight.
all clocks are set ahead one hour,
and next morning, without realizing
it, one arises an hour earlier, and
goes to work at the same old clock
time BY this operation, however,
the people in this State would have
saved 234 hours of daylight in a
year. More than that, and far more
important, each payer of electric
light bills would have saved 234
hours Of electric light bills; saved
eyes, improved health conditions
gotten more pleasure out of life and
more, time to spend outdoors.
The people of Florida should see
to 1t that the next Legislature enact
a law declaring that the Standard
time throughout the State Of Florida
shall be that Of the 18th meridian OF
Longitude west of Greenwich, known
as Eastern time, and provided that
official proceedings shall be per.
formed and regulated according tC
that time. The railroads will then
Iconform to the change. The news
PAPERS and commercial organizations
of the State could well AFFORD to agi
tate this matter.

The Jeffersonian., 1916-10-19

Southern Democratic Congressman had not
been wickedly ''unseated."
Chairman Gum virtually says that the
horrible class legislation which robs the mil
lions of producers, to enricn the few non
producers, are the direct consequence of a
Republican, majority Of one, which 'unseated
two Southern Democratic congressman, one
from South Carolina and one from Virginia,
and seated in their places negro who helped
the Republicans to make laws for our
country"
What laws? Tell us the names of these
baleful laws which the two negroes put over
on us.
Wake up, Brother Gum, and file an
itemized account. Maybe it isn't too late to
lynch those two niggers, yet.
Is Mr. Gum thinking about the Demone-
tization of SiIer in 1873 wherein Thomas
Bayard, the Democrat, co-operated with John
Sherman, the Republican?
Is Mr. Gum thinking of the repeal of the
Silver law in 1898, when Grover Cleveland
was Democratic President, and the Indiana
Democratic Senator, Dan Voorhees,, led the
fight to kill the only law friendly to silver?
Is Mr.. Gum thinking of the National
banking system which the Democrats helped
the Republicans to renew, and again renew,
The Jeffersonian., 1916-10-19

IT becomes national misfortune, when the
Powers that-be in any country earn the
reputation of being weak, doubling, and
tickle.
Neither President Buchanan nor Hayes in
spired respect: Cleveland did, and he brought
England to time in Venezuela: Roosevelt did,
and he gave hint or two which caused the
German battle-ships to quickly get out of
American waters.
Does Woodrow Wilson command the re-
spect of foreign governments?
1t is a serious question, which grows ever
more serious.
Let us put our minds upon some facts which
are universally conceded.
Germany drew an imaginary line around
The British Islands and called it a blockade,
warming neutral vessels not to enter that
portion of the high-seas which the Kaiser
said was his.
President Wilson should then have adopted
q policy and stuck to it.
Two courses were open to him: he could
have warned Americans to travel in no other
than our own ships, putting upon them the
responsibility of taking risks on belllgerent
vessels or he could have insisted upon neutral
rights-as he did do-and prepared to
enforce them.
No matter how much you may differ from
me about the merits and the causes of the
War, you will agree with me that the Presi-
The Jeffersonian., 1916-10-19

But President Wilson did mot hare the
nerve to make the surrender
[ say NERVE" because it sometimes requires
the higher courage to surrender an abstract
right, than to fight for it.
General Lee was drawer at Appomattox
than at Gettysburg, because he surrendered
an abstract right which had been taught him
at West Point, and in which he earnestly be-
lieved.
But Mr.. Wilson did not have the sheer grit
to say to American citizens, "Heep off Eng
hsh e'eSsezs: cannot protect you, If you trorI
on then."
Had he been courageous enough to utter
these words, the 119 American fathers,
mothers, and children, who went down with
the Lusitana would never have left our
shores.
Instead, he chose to hector Germany on
account of her imaginary war-zone; and to
say, in effect, american passengers have the
abstract right to travel in belligerent ships,
and if you harm those Americans, [, Wood
row Wilson, will hold you to strict account"
That truculent note and threat was sent Ill
February 1915 what was the answer which
Germany gave to the Princeton school
teacher?
The answer was tWo-fold: one part of it
was the advertisement. which Ambassador
Bernsdorf put in the newspapers, warning

How Democratic Vote-Beggar Talks to the People,

until at last Woodrow Wilson fastened it on
us, permanently?
Two niggers One from South Carolina and
one from Virginia! They made these laws
which crush the common people, and enthrone
a souIless commercalism and military plu-
tocracy!
So says Gunn Of Alabama.
| guess Brother Gunn got his facts and
his dates mixed. He was thinking about the
day in 1911, when % white Democrats de-
serted Champ Clark, the Democratic leader,
and went over to old Joe Cannon, the Stand
pat Republican leader.
Mr.. Gum may have forgotten that these
