URGED
 TO GIVE VOTE
 TO ITS WOMEN

TOKYO. Oct. g. The Kokumin Shimbun in an interesting editorial insists that national expansion is impossible without the aid of wo- men, who are considered essential in solilitying emigration. The writ CT asserts that the Japanese sue cess in Hawaii and on the Pacific coast is due evidently to the family system, which makes emigration stable and develops national expan' sion Hence he urges that the edu. cation of women be broadened and that an international spirit be cul- tlyated.

SUBMARINE WARFARE SHOWS BIG INCREASE IN LAST FEH WEEKS
 AND ANOTHER CRISIS NEARING

in these cases are received.
 Non-combaptant lives on ships Of benigerent nationality have already been taken in these latest gubmar- inc attacks. It was only the lucky chance that Americans were not in. cluded which saved the crisis. Ac- tually the crime against which the United States protests was commit- ed in such attacks. but tho United States was not Involved through the loss of lts citizens
 A crisis Approaching
 This is precisely the situation that preceded the attack upon the Sussex and that followed the "settloment' Of the Arabic case. After the Arab ic was sunk the United States re- fused to continue negotiations In the Lusttania case until immediate as- surances were given against re-. currence of the crime. Germany gave assurances with a string tied ito them-the string which drew a distinction between a "liner" and a freight ship. But when public op- nion in the United States had cooled somewhat, the submarines yenured forth again. At first the attacks were few. Official reports recorded them, but the press paid little at tention to them, and the American public thought that the atrocities were over.
 Suddenly, however the activities of the submarines accelerated, in response to a demand within the empire. And then, within few weeks, there came the sinking of the Sussex.
 Following the Sussex attack Presi- dent Wilson made am address in Con- gress which was generally interpre- ted throughout the United States as a demand for complete cessation of submarine warfare. No less would satisfy the United States. Der lin gave assurances again with a string tied to them Then the State Department placed an interpretation on the Presidents words which per mitted continuance of submarine warfare provided that it was a legal warfare, albeit the President had de- clared that submarines could not conduct such warfare within the limits of the law.
 There followed two months per. iod in which the submarines were withdrawn, and then the demand within the empire sprang up anew and the submarines were again un- leashed. At first they moved eau tiously, but now they strike among the ships of all nations, regardless of flag. Their attacks increase in number. It is, by every indication, precisely the situation that preced- ed the Sussex attack It is. by ey- cry indication, precisely the situa- ton that preceded the Sussex at tack The crisis, if this continue, cannot be far distant.

BALLOT BOX ROBBED
At GLEN ST. MARY
Robbery Discovered by Of
ficials Appointed to
Recount.

When the inspectors and clerks in
precinct No. 5, Glen st. Mary, Baker
county, opened the ballot box at Mac
clenny, the county seat on Friday last
to recount the gubernatorial vote
cast IN the primary of June 9Th, the
box was found to be entirely empty
it had been robed of its entire con-
tents. Not single ballot remained.
Glen st. Mary precinct returns on
June 9th, gave an overwhelming vote
for S. j. Cats, and very few votes
were credited to the other candidates
for governor.
There were rumors and reports of
fraud in the conduct of the election
IN this precinct Immediately after
the primary, and as a result of these
reports attorneys for W. V. Knott
made application to Judge Wills for
a mandamus and recount, which was
granted.
The circulation of the news that
the ballot box had been robbed Gre
ated heated excitement and it was
considered advisable by those having
the matter in charge to proceed no
further with the recount. The boxes
were presumed to be safely and Sc
curely locked in the county Judges
vault. The inspectors carefully ex-
amined the box before opening and
1t did not show any indication of
having been tempered with until the
lock was removed and the contents
found to be missing.
The prevailing opinion and the I'M
dercurent Of talk in Baker county is
that friends Of Cats were driven to
desperation in order to prevent fair
count in Baker county, as Mr.. Cats,
If he had the votes as originally re-
turned for him, would be proud of the
fact and would readily consent to
recount.

MENDENRALL WEARS
SHACKLES IN PRISON
Notorious Women Murderer
is Taking His Punishment
PhiloSophicaIly.

A dispatch from Clearwater on
Wednesday says:
That J. J. Mendenhall, who is per-
haps the most notorious prisoner now
serving term in the State prison, is
hard at work and is being shown no
special favors by the prison authori-
ties, is the assertion of Gus Bartlett,
a drummer who arrived here this
morning.
Mr.. Bartlett said that yesterday
he was at the prison camp at Raiford,
Bradford county, where he saw and
talked with Mendenhall, and found
him in vigorous health. He was en-
gagged, with several other prisoners,
in filing a large silo with chopped
corn. Mendenhall's job was tamping
down the silage with q heavy maui,
which he handled as if he were quite
used to that kind of labor.
Mr.. Bartlett said that Mendenhall
wore shackles on his angles, and was
the only prisoner he saw there who
was thus manacled. Evidently the
prison authorities are not taking any
chances as to his getting away.
Mendenhall talked freely with Mr..
Bartlett and said he was being treat
ed well, that he could not complain
of thing, so far as prison life went.
He was taking his punishment phil
graphically. The hours of labor We're
not oncrous. The prisoners began
work early in the morning. but were

His German Sympathies-

Orlando Reporter-Star: S. J. Cats
in his speech to the citizens of Gotha,
who largely are of German descent,
stated that his family came from Ger
many; that the German form of his
name was Katz; that he believed in
the cause of the Germans in the pres
ent war and he hoped they would win
against the entente allies. All of this
might have been stated in truth and
sincerity, but it has the seeming of
sham and pretense. 1t was intended
solely to capture the vote of the Co.
tina precinct, but we are greatly mis-
taken in our appraisal Of those sturdy
and sensible citizens if they are
swayed by such shallow platitudes.-

An Honest Mistake, But

Lakeland Telegram: In Marion
county four candidates ran for the Of
flee Of sheriff. Frank Adams and
John P. Galloway were the two high
men, and the race was extremely
close, Adams receiving a slight plu-
rality. Galloway felt that there had
been unintentional errors in counting
the ballots, and asked the courts to
grant q recount. This the courts al
lowed. In one precinct it was founG
that all the second choice votes were
placed in the Adams column instead
of the column intended for the total,
and were counted for Adams. The
elimination of these votes, erroneous
ly credited to Adams, loses the nomi-
nation for Adams and gives it to Gal
loway. There was no fraud in the
first count, only an honest mistake.
There was no fraud in the second
count, only an honest rectification of
mistake That's all there is to the
contest for the gubernatorial nomi-
nation. Mistakes were made in the
tabulation of second choice votes; ev-
erybody knows this to be true; ev-
cry honest person must admit it. Mr.
Knott is striving to have these err
rors corrected, using the medium
which is open to all law-abiding peo-
pie to protect their rights. If these
errors more than offset the very
slight lead the first count gave Cats,
then Knott is the nominee for Gov
ernor, just as Galloway is the nomi-
nee for sheriff in Marion. That's all
there is to it.
