THE PENALTY OF BoLTING.

Knott is the nominee of the democratic
party declared such by the Democratic
State Committee, after one OF the most
careful canvasses in the history OF the
state. Cats is not.
These are facts that no one can dis
pute.
To Mr. Knott therefore belongs the I'M
divided allegiance of his party. No matter
which of the FIVE candidates you may have
favored in the primary, if you support any
body other than the actual nominee, you
will automatically expel yourself from the
democratic party.
Section 43 of the law under which the
elections in this state are held: Any
person offering to vote at a primary cleo
ton NAV be challenged by any elector 1t
shall not be necessary for the eleetor enter
ing the challenge to state any reason or
ground therefor Upon a challenge being
entered against the right of any person to
vote. it shall be the duty of the inspectors
Of the election Immediately to deliver to
said challenged person the following affi-
davit:
L do solemnly swear that my name IS
.; that am member OF
the Democratic Party, AND AT THE
LAST GENERAL. ELECTION | DID
NOT VOTE FOR ANY NOMINEE OF
ANY OTHER PARTY; that my occupa-
ton is ETC., etc, etc.
The above solemn oath must be sworn
to and subscribed by the person applying
TO vote, and if he refuse to make and sign
the affidavit, the inspectors shall refuse to
allow him to vote.
4 vote for Cats this year will bar you
from voting the democratic ticket in 1918.

traditions of their party; whatever their
personal feelings towards any individual
candidates, they will never write them
selves down as boilers and run the risk Oh

BIRTH OF AN INDUSTRY.

1t is not often that business house is
opened BY public jubilee. The dedication
of college or library or museum IS
an appropriate subject for celebration;
ships are sometimes launched, for senti-
mental reasons, amid wine-spilling cere-
mony ,;but usually business enterprise
simply puts an adj in the paper and opens
its doors.
The public exercises which opened the
Armour plant in Jacksonville last week are
therefore significant.
Nobody was interested in the CONNER
cial or mechanical side of the packing
plant; nobody cared for Mr., Armour: no
body cared rap that he wasn't present
But fifteen thousand people gathered there
to listen to addresses on Rural Credits, Tick
Eradication, Hog Cholera, Stock Raising
etc, etc. ,-mostly city people-because they
realized that this was the dawn of new
era
The reason for locating the packing
house in Florida Mr. Minium, manager Of
the plant, summarized as follows:
With our millions of fertile acres abundance
of rainfall, neveI-ending sunshine and practically
year-round growing season, possess many
advantages Texas any other similar area
for the production of cattle, sheep and hogs.
These are not the words of the boomer

sometimes call heartless and grasping

State Press Comment
Never Nominated

Every effort is being made by the
Cats support rs to make it appear
that s. j. Cats, was, at one time, the
nominee of the democratic patry Of
Florida for the governorship.
At no time has S. J. Cats ever
been the nominee. He was not nomi-
mated in the June primary although
for time it appeared on the sur
face of things, that he had been.
The lawful and correct vote cast
at that primary of first and second
choice ballots, as the law required,
was in favor of w. v. Knott, and
when. the polls closed on that June
evening, w. V. Knott was the nomi-
nee of the democratic party and has
been ever since.
That it did not at first appear that
Mr.. Knott has been nominated was
due to the fact that many inspectors
and clerks had incorrectly tailed the
second choice votes, depriving Mr..
Knott of the votes that were hts
rightfully and legally.
mere was no possible way to as
certain where and how and how many
errors had been committed except
through an application to the courts
for recount of the votes in the pre-
cincts where there was a suspicion
that errors had been committed.
The courts granted the petition for
recount. That recount showed where
errors had been committed and
showed beyond doubt that Mr..
Knott was the rightful nominee, and
the state .canvassing board duly GER
titled to that effect.
Mr.. Knott was nominated in the
June primary, the action of the courts
in the past few weeks being only to
ascertain the exact truth with reg
ulation to the manner in which the
election was conducted.
There can be no other democratic
candidate for the governorship and
all this effort to make S. J. Cats an
apparent democratic nominee Z.
merely trick to deceive the demo
cratic voters of Florida Miami

A MACEDONIAN CRY.

The liquor element is now trying to get
the help of the colleges Carl A. Nowak,
Secretary of the Master Brewers Asso-
saeiatien. in recent address held in New
York, made plea for the universities to-
cooperate with the brewers in eradicating
the opposition to the brewery interests,
and making financial promises in return.
He said:
I'VE require the help and assistance of
the universities. We believe that inasmuch
as eHf industry Is legitimate industry
operated in strict accordance with scientific
principles, controlled by men with techni-
sal and scientific education, we are entitled
10 the same support that has so generously
been hestawed upon some of our great
AfHeFisaH industries
I'VE are willing to assist in financial
way ia reimburse the institution for what
ever expense 1t may incur on that account
either by scholarship, fellowship, or, if
need be- by the endowment of chair in
fermentation chemistry. We do not wish
to make any restriction as to the work that
should be done, neither do we wish to in
fluence in any way the results ofthis work
All we want is help and support in the
SoiulioH VI our technical ulII1CulI1eS with
the ultimate aim to have the public recog-
nize our product at its true worth"
No more direct bride has ever been of
fered. With the lobby thrown out of con-
gress, with the newspapers barring their
columns to liquor advertisements, the
liquor people are driven to this last resort
but we join the Manufacturers Record in
not dreaming for a moment that the uni
versities will take the bride.
