My Lady's Grave

The linnet in the rocky dells,
The moorlark in the air.
The bee among the heather bells,
That hide my lady fair:
Blow, west wind. by the lonely mound:
And murmur, summer streams
There is no need Of other sounds
To soothe my lady's dreams.
Emily Bronte.

1T is with genuine pleasure that
the Evening Telegram notes that the
Tampa Tribune comes out squarely
for the Democratic nominee, w. V.
Knott. 1t is not more than might
have been expected from that
staunch and sterling Democratic
journal; still, so many strange things
have happened in politics of late that
We confess to a feeling of relief and
qualification at seeing South Flor
ida's great daily lined up squarely
where it belongs. While the election
of Mr.. Knott and the Democratic
ticket could doubtless have been &C
complished anyway, the assistance OF
the Tribune clinches the matter, anG
assures a sweeping victory for De.
mocracy in November over the po
litical rag-tag and. bob-tail lined ul
against the nominees.

THE DUTY OF DEMOCRATS

After fair count and an impair
tial trial. thorough sitting of all
charges of fraud, and careful con-
sideration of all the evidence, the
highest judicial authority in the
State has decided that, by a plurality
of the votes cast on June 9Th, w. v.
Knott is the Democratic nominee for
Governor of the State of Florida. In
addition to this, the State Demo-
cratic Executive Committee, the
highest party authority, by the de-
cisive vote of 81 to IL, endorses the
candidacy of Mr.. Knott, and calls
upon all Democrats to rally to his
support.
In view of these facts, there can
be no lingering doubt in the mind of
any Democrat as to his duty to his
party, and as to the course which he
is bound in honor to pursue. Every
person who participated in the pri-
mary on June 9Th pledged himself to
support the nominee of that party,
and those who regard their word
cannot do otherwise than to cast
their vote in November for the man
who has been declared the nominee

THE HUGHES CAMPAIGN
AGAINST LABOR

The New York World says truly
Of Mr.. Hughes that he is both a Sec
tiopal candidate and a class candi.
date, and that he is trying to ride in
to office by setting one section of the
country against another and by in
citing capital to make war upon
/, labor.
Mr.. Hughes began his sectional
speeches in the West, where he said
all the hard things he could think OF
against the South. Since coming
east of the Mississippi he has
changed to other topics. but his bit
ter appeal to sectional prejudice re-
mains as survival of an age that all
thought had passed away since the
first campaign of William Mckinley.
Mr.. Hughes attacks upon labor
are fully as unfortunate. This phase
Of the presidential campaign is sum-
med up by the World as follows:
THE inevitable effect of such
speeches as Mr.. Hughes is making
upon the eight-hour act must be to
drive labor into the Democratic par
ty and entire capital into the Repub-
lican party, a most unfortunate line
OF cleavage. In the reaction from
the Hughes passion and intolerance.
the average workman must feel that
whatever the merits Of the Adamson
Dill may be, a Hughes administration
will necessarily be bitterly hostile to
labor. Every manufacturer is en-
couraged to think that If Hughes
were in the White House the power
Of government would be used to
coerce labor. Every antagonism that
exists between employer and en-
ploye is intensified by the TRADES of
Mr.. Hughes and by his shocking
misrepresentation Of the eight-hour
act.
1t is true that Mr.. Hughes is 4
class candidate and he is now stalking
everything in an effort to get the
support of all men hostile. suspicious
or upconvinced of the advantages os
organized labor. His speeches must
we believe, tend to, solidify the labor
vote against him, but will he sue
coed in "enticing" all capital to his
support? He will not. The Big
Money of the East is for Mr.. Hughes
ana a majority of the men of large |
wealth elsewhere. but thousands of
over the country are too
wise and too patriotic to follow Mr..
Hughes into fight against labor

Law Unconstitutional.

As the Union anticipated theasu-s
preme court has held that chapter 1863
laws of 1915 is unconstitutional. This
is the law that extended the terms
OF clerks of courts in several counties
two years. The object Of the law was
to have the terms of all clerks of
court in the state expire at the same
time, hence the terms of about 30. of
the clerks were extended to the first
Monday in January, 1919, virtually
giving them a six-year term. The re-
suit of the decision will be that the
terms of all clerks Of court who were
elected in 1912 will expire on the first
Monday in January, 1917. The deci-
sion affects the clerk of court of this
county. II. the present incumbent de-
sires to retain the office he must be
reelected this year.
