Bv request The Palatka News has
this week secured an article from our
Putnam county farm demonstration,
Mr.. L. Cantrell, giving a review of his
work among the farmers of the coun-
tv for the little over five months that
he has been with US. The News
trusts the farmers of the county will
read Mr.. Cantrell's article. There
has been some talk among ill-advised
about doing away with this office and
work. This should never be seriously
cosidered- for a moment. Mr.
Cantrell has been in the county too
short a time to have accomplished
much. but he has been here long
enough to demonstrate his fitness for
the work, and to show that he is
working along right lines to build up
the agricultural interests of the coun-
ty. Before his year is up there will
be much in evidence to attest his val
ue to the farmers of the county. Mr..
Cantrell is an expert in his line and
ranks among the best in the south.
The News hopes the county commits
sioners at their meeting next week
will arrange the annual budget SO as
to provide for the retention of Mr..
CantreIl on his very important job.

The statement of the Tampa Irl-
bune that "there will be no republican
nominee for governor on the ticket in
the general election in this State"
will be surprise to republican
managers like Henry S. Chubb, men
who are no novices in politics and the
INTERPRETATION of election laws. That
was a point raised by The Palatka
News at the time of the republican
State convention in this city last
spring, when he republican managers
stated that the party did not roll
FIVE per cent of the vote at the gen.
cral election next proceeding the pri-
mary, and therefore was not obliged
under the law to nominate in primary.
The Tribune says the republicans
polled more than five per cent OF the
vote at the last general election; the
republican managers say not. 1t IS
therefore a question of fact for the
narties at interest to settle. Inc

The editor of the Montgomer!

innate of the Rev. Sidney j. Cats
whom Floridians have named as th'
democratic candidate for governor:
Mr.. Sydney J. Cats. formerly
of Lowndes county, has been
nominated by the democracy for
governor of the great state OF
Florida. He removed from
Lowndes to the state of Florida
less than four years ago. tie
started a crusade against Catho-
licism and has won out for the
office he sought on an issue OF
that sort.
The editor of the Times has
known Mr.. Cats for a long
time and he is not the kind OF
man we would have voted for to
be elected to any office, much less
that of governor Of great and
growing state.
He could not have been sent to
the legislature from the rock

PROBLEM CONFRONTS
STEEL INDUSTRY
IS HOW TO GET MATERIAL AND
LABOR TO MEET THE UMPIRE
cEDENTED DEMAND.
Five Hundred Million Dollars Has
Been Contracted For In Iron and
Steel Industries.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Chicago.-Five Hundred million dol
lars has been contracted for in iron
and steel industries as the first devel-
opment of the biggest boom in the
history of the Central Western States.
This fact was brought out at the final
session of the Structural Steel Socle-
ty. This organization of two score OF
men at the head of the industry dis
cussed the situation as one that pre-
sages unprecedented prosperity for all
workers, regardless of the outcome OF
the present election. "Never at any
time in our economic life has the
United States experienced such an ex-
pansion of building" said F. w. Ives,
of Decatur, ILL.,, president. His sum-
mary was based on reports furnished
by Secretary A. l.. Denniston, Roches-
ter, Ind, to the effect that the struc-
tural men throughout the country are
unable to get sufficient supplies OF iron
and steel to construct bridges and
steel skeletons for buildings, and to en-
gage in the industries that require this
material.

Tom Linton had served four and a
quarter years when he was released
from the penitentiary with new suit
and $14 in his pocket, and he had
one idea in mind, to find Molly, his
sweetheart, and marry her and start
a decent life in some place where
he was unknown.
For Is months Molly had come to
see him, or written. Then she had
dropped out of his life. Linton did
not feel bitter about this. He knew
few women would be true for a five
year term; but he knew he could win
her back if-here was the thought
that terrified him - if she had not
married another.
Both Molly and Tom came of de-
cent folk. Molly had never known
until Tom was arrested that he had
lived by crime; and Tom, with 5000
sailed away, had meant to marry her
and quit the life. But he had tried
once mOre-bUrglaTy. He had been
caught red-handed and he had lost
everything, including his money,
which his lawyer had taken.
He could not find Molly. Nobody
knew anything about her, and $14
does not last very long in big city.
Tom soon. turned his thoughts to-
ward the old career.
In one way his opportunities were
excellent. Tom was not a regular
criminal He had taken to crime, but
he had not been born to it. He had
never worked with a man in his life.
He was the solitary criminal whom
the police fear more than any other
sort.
Now, in burglary, the advantages
of partnership are obvious. There is
