her now. There is a young man board
ing here who talks to her when she
herself forces her attentions on him,
but he never takes her out anywhere.
Do you think by treating him kindly

HARD WOMAN.
a. You cannot force the man TO
marry your niece no matter how kind
you are to him. She makes a mistake
in seeking his attentions when he
shows no interest Of his own accord.
Insist upon her getting out and work
ing. No girl should sit around wait
ing for a man to marry her, because
the chances are she will be left and
then she will be without home and
means of support.
t2) Many homely women are mar
ried. A woman makes a great mis-
take. however. not to cultivate
good looks to the highest degree.
so Good music might win mans
heart if he were especially fond o.
music but it takes more than music
to win the hearts of most men.

Will Disregard Them

Those peace-disturbing reso.
lutions of the state committee, a.
bout which so much has been said
and is still being said, will be dis.
regarded everywhere in the state,
except possibly in Jacksonville.
This fact is evident from the ex-
pressions Of the newspapers and
from the construction placed up
on the resolutions by Chairman
George p. Raney and several of
the candidates for governor and
other state Offices. The interpre-
tation placed upon them by the
chairman and the candidates al
luded to, is, that no man who,
through religious prejudices, has
pledged himself to vote in the
general election against any par
ticular candidate who may be-
come a nominee, shall be permit
ted to vote in the Democratic pri-
mary.
For example: if a man belongs
to any organization whose mem
bers have entered into a pledge
to vote against Senator Bryan, in
case he is re-nominated, because
he is believed to favor the Catho-
lie church, he will not be permit
ted to vote in the primary, unless
he renounces the pledge and a.
grees to support the Democratic
nominees.
The resolutions, however, as
they are worded, are susceptible
of radical, unusual and highly
Objectionable construction, which
is the very meaning that the
author evidently intended them
to have; and if any attempt is
made at the primary polls to en-
force this construction, there is
sure to be trouble and some brok-
en- heads.
However, as stated in the be-
ginning, it seems to be generally
understood and agreed through
out the state that no objectiona-
bic Interpretation will be placed
upon the resolutions, that, in fact,
they will be ignored everywhere
except in Jacksonville, in which
city it seems that there are some
people who have no apprehen-
slons concerning black eyes and
bloody noses.
Thirty-four men do not consti-
tute the Democratic party of
Florida; the party has the right
and power to repudiate their ac-
ton.

portunity to qualify for governor.
Either Knott or Hudson woald
prove able men in that position.
They are both men of sound
Judgment, conservative in their
views and safe to rely upon in
any emergency. Neither of them
is erractic, but both proceed in all
matters upon sound business prin-
ciples. 1t is not the orator or
fowery speaker, nor even the
"good-mixer" in politics that
would make the best governor.
That important position should be
held by a man who is posted on
the business conditions of the
State and by experience is quail
fed to cope with the problems
which will confront him and solve
them in a proper manner.-Sum-
ter County Times.

find the race between Gilchrist
and Bryan and in another be-
tween Gilchrist and Trammell-
always Gilchrist. The former
governor figures that if he is one
OF two high contestants in each
county, even though he does not
lead in single county, his cleo
ton is assured with four candi-
dates in the field. Undoubtedly
General Gilchrist reasoning is
good, and the impression is grow
ing daily that the winner will
have to defeat him.

Gilchrist Confident of

Former Governor Albert W.
Gilchrist, now candidate for the
United States Senate, was cam
paigning in Daytona yesterday

DeLand, where he attended the
Volusia county fair, and left last
night for New Smyrna, being en-
route down the east coast as far
as Key West and expecting to
thoroughly canvass every town a.
long the line.
General Gilchrist is very opti-
miStic of his chances of landing
the senatorial tOga now worn by
Senator Bryan. He says if any
one has doubts of the result, they
only have to question well in
formed men from different coun-
ties and their doubts will be dis
PEELED. In one county they will

1t is a significant fact that the
chief defenders of those foolish
Resolutions 4 and S, are support
ers of Senator Bryan. Of course
Senator Bryan approves of the
resolutions. Thus the evidence
accumulates that they were de-
signed for his benefit. They
were prepared by his good politi-
cal friend, Hon. j. M. Bars.

succinct report of the views OF
various candidates concerning
those celebrated resolutions, Nos
A and S, as follows:
Ex-Gov. Gilchrist They are
undemocratic and | gladly disap-

lutions have no bearing on the

have some good friends who are
Catholics and some others who
are blamed rascals; but | am a
Methodist and am broad and lib
eral enough in my views to ac-
cept the vtes of every body.
Senator Farris Il heartily ap-
prove of the resolutions, because
they rule out some political hypo-
critics who intended to vote a.

greet this fuss. | know most of
the members of the executive
committee; and, when / was state
/ examined their books
and found them correct. In view
