Sixteen carloads of first-class cattle
and four of hogs left Grangeville Tues
day morning of this week for the pack
ing houses at outside city points. John
Rothlisberg shipped eight cars of cat
tie and three of hogs, Buyer Allison six
cars of cattle and other parties two
cars; while a car or two of hogs were
shipped by John Baer. There where
other shipments from Ferdinand and
other points on the prairie which ran
the number of cars from the prairie
up to thirty-two.
George Behean, the well known Sal
mon river stockman, brought out five
cars of fine beef cattle that averaged
1900 pounds, and brought him on an
average of $75 per head; and one car
of fat cows, which averaged $55 per
head. The Gill brothers also brought
out a car or two of fine cattle. Mr..
Behean's cattle were fed last winter
and then finished up this season on
excellent pasture. One thing tnat
speaks well for his management is the
fact that he cleaned up to the last
steer, there was not a Gull left on his
hands, something unusual in cattle
shipping experience. 1t shows that it
pays 10 Dreed up ana Jnel cure loI

When it comes to grain raising and
stock shipping Idaho county makes all

cholera recorded in the entire county

seases makes the stock industry safe
venture and only requires the addition
of reasonable prudence and care OF
stock to assure certain success.

HOLDHICHWAY
MEETING IN
OCTOBER
President of North and South
Association to Announce
Date.

Lewiston Tribune: Decision has
been reached by President L. J. Perk
ms of the North and South State
Highway association to hold a meeting
of the association in early October
instead of September, 90 The defi-
nate date of the meeting will be de-
cided within a few days. Decision
was reached to hold the meeting at
the later date for the reason that
it is assured all the various counties
interested can send representatives at
that time and it has also been learned
that the attendance OF several state
officers will be possible in October,
whereas present appointments would
make it impossible for them to be
here at the earlier date.
In the meantime the association Is
completing its organization and yester-
day Secretary Adams sent out letters
having in view the completion of local
organizations in KOotenai, Benewah,
Boundary, Shoshone and Bonner coun-
ties through the appointment of vice
presidents and advisory boards. The
following counties have already or
ganized these adjuncts or the general
association: NeZperce, Lewis, Latah,
Clearwater, Idaho, Adams, Washing
ton, Canyon and Ada. In all these
counties marked interest in the move
ment is being displayed and it is as
sured all will send representatives to
the Lewiston meeting when definite
policies are to be decided upon as the
future work of the association.

eXerted himself to force it through
the Democratic congress
1T is a triumph for reform in social
conditions that cannot be surpassed,
but Mr.. Wilson could also have forced
through the federal suffrage amend
ment had he so desired. He is not For
it, and no amount of fair promises on
the eve of national election will have
any effect on a woman who does any

bands are prominent Democrats, as, for
instance, Mrs Kent, of California, wife
of a Democratic congressman, are or
ganizing among women for the purpose
of defeating Mr. Wilson for reelection.
Neither he nor his party favors
woman suffrage. The record shows
that only 80 per cent of the Democrats
in congress were for it, while 60 per
cent of the Republicans favored it.
''The only hope the women have of
the adoption of the Anthony amend
ment is through the election of Mr..
Hughes and a Republican congress

FAvORs THE BIG HIGHWAY.

John NeyinS head of the Salmon
River Stores company, came out Tues
day of this week from his home at
Whitebird to attend the meeting of the
executive committee or the Idaho
County Good Roads association, of
which he is a member. Mr. Nevins is
one of the county's most enthusiastic
good roads boosters and has never mis-
sed meeting or an opportunity to
spread the good roads doctrine since
the first meeting of the automobile as
sociation, at Cottonwood, at which the
present movement was first launched.
In his remarks before the local Com
mercial club Wednesday he stated that
the citizens of his community were a
unit for the north and south road and
were already organizing for the pur-
pose of raising funds with which to
present the matter to the favorable
consideration of the voters of the
county when the proposed bond cleo
tion is called. With this kind of a
spirit shown all over the county, there
is little doubt as to the result of a
reasonable and fair bond election.

The FlOrahOme Kickers.

Editor Palatka News:
No doubt you have heard of "kick-
ers" everywhere, but Florahome has
the best bunch of kickers that you
ever met. They began kicking about
three weeks ago and last Friday night,
MAY 5th, succeeding in kicking up the
best entertainment ever pulled off in
Florahome. =,
When the north bound train rolled
in from Palatka, there was kicked off
80 of the finest looking candidates
that offered for office. Then this
bunch was kicked up to Palmetto
Hall, where they kicked up the best
free supper that was ever given to a
bunch of candidates. Then the Flo
rahome candidates was kicked clear
out of the ring by sudden attack OF
indigestion, but that didn't stop the
kicking. They kicked up Mr.. Wal
cot. who introduced in very lifting
and eloquent manner 25 of the candl-
dates to an audience of over 200 peo-
ple who had been kicked up to see
and hear the candidates. Ice cream
and cake were sold at a reasonable
nrice, and S65 was kicked up for the
Methodist church; and all you can
hear on the streets is CONGRATULATIONS
and regrets that they forgot to thank
the candidates and audience for their
attendance, patronage and sociability.
There was no graft, and nothing but
GOOD feeling, and Florahome will ever
feel nroud and thankful for the occa-
sion. and if it were possible the people
of the place would elect every candl-
date who was present. The Flora
home candidate is sorry that ne was
kicked out, and that his opponents
were not kicked in. They were KICK
ed at but could not be reached: When
we kick in future, let US KICK ike tnis
it hurts no one. r,e

DEMOCRATS
TO HOLD BARBECUE
And Make a Great Political
Festival in Palatka
On Occasion of the Visit of State and
Senatorial Candidates, May 29th.

The Democracy of Putnam county
is going to give the Gubernatorial and
Senatorial candidates and other State
candidates a rousing reception in Pa
latka on Monday, the 10Th inst, and on
which occasion all the people of the
county are invited to come to this
city and enjoy a good old-fashioned
barbecue, and hear the distinguished
speakers. Only the State and Sena-
torial candidates will speak. 1t will
be the final wind-up, in so for as Put
nam county is concerned of long and
tedious campaign-tedious alike to the
people and the candidates.
The barbecue is to be held on the
Burt lot, on the river frcnt where
there is plenty of shade and seats will
be provided. Experienced men will
be engaged to barbecue the meat and
if you have never known the joys Of
barbecued meat you have one pleas
ure in store that will abide with you
during your remaining days on earth.
Time was when our grandfathers had
these affairs frequently during polit-
ical campaigns. That was in the days
when the newspapers were not so nu-
merous. 1t was their methcd cf get
ting together and herring discussed
the political questions of the day
and eating and drinking and making
merry. 1t was called by the politi-
clans the hustings.
Bear this great meeting in mind.
Come, and get a genuine Palatka well
come
The ladies of the Baptist church
have arranged to have an ice cream
and cold drinks stand at the barbecue.
The committee of arrangements will
meet tonight to further the plans Of

DIR. FOgerty Here.

DR.. J. N. Fogerty of Key West, per-
haps the biggest man intellectually
and forcefully in the Congressional
race in the Fourth Florida district
spent a part of the day Wednesday in
the city. DR.. Fogerty is the present
State Senator from Monroe and Lee
counties, and during the last session
of the Florida legislature he did not
fail to leave his impress on the work
of that body. He was generally re-
garded as the most influential man,
the safest advisor in that body.
Dr.Fogerty saw a number of our
citizens on his visit, and has promised
to return and make an address before
the end of the campaign. All who
met this genial gentleman We're great
ly impressed with him, and there is
no doubt that he will secure Il large
vote from this city.

CONGRESSMAN SEARS
ADDRESSES VOTERS
At Court House Defends
Vote on Child Labor

Congressman Joe Sears of Kissim-
NEE, now serving his first term in
Congress and fighting the fight of his
young and heretofore calm life for a
second term, spoke to an audience of
perhaps rs to a hundred men at the
Putnam county court house on We'd
nesday evening.
Congressman Sears has perhaps
been criticized more extensively and
more bitterly than any of the other
Florida members for his vote in op-
position to the Keating- Owen Child
Labor Bill, and he devoted the great
er part Of his speech in defense of
that vote. He opposed the bill, he
said for the following reasons:
First, because | do not believe it is
constitutional;
Second, because | believe it is a
matter which should be regulated sole
ly by each State;
Third, because no provision is made
in said bill to take care of orphan
children, who are unable to provide for
themselves; and
Fourth, because Florida already has
in my opinion much better law than
the Keating- Owens Bill.
Congressman Sears said that since
he made his speech in congress in
opposition to this bill, it had been n
source of great pleasure to him to
note that Miss Mary S. Garrett, foun-
der of the home for the training of
deaf children before they are of school
age, member of the Pennsylvania
Court and Probation Association, and
of the Philadelphia Juvenile Court and
Probation Association, has practically
endorsed the stand l took in toto. I
quote from her testimony before the
Senate Committee, as follows:
There is, however, a danger not
well understood by tie average citi-
zen, growing out of the strict enforce
ment of this law. In Illinois no child
under the age of fourteen years can
ever legally be employed at any fain-
full occupation and children between
the ages of fourteen and sixteen years
cannot be employed during the months
when school is in session, unless GER
tificate is obtained from the school
authorities permitting such employ
ment. One of the results of the rath-
er strict enforcement of this law has
been to turn hundreds and thousands
Of bright young boys upon the streets,
especially during the summer months
when school is not in session. They
meet in groups in alleys, play marbles,
craps and engage in other games of
doubtful character. Here the good
boy meets the vicious boy and togeth-
er they plan some escapade which usu-
ally results disasterously to both"
Mr.. Sears also quoted a number of
other workers in behalf of children in
opposition to the bill. He made
most excellent impression. Mr.. Sears
is an effective speaker and at times
reaches to periods of genuine elo-
Quence.

Mr.. Russell Makes Statement.

At a public meeting in Florahome
on Friday night, May 5th, and again
in his speech at the Crescent City
picnic on Saturday, May 9Th, Mr.. W.
q. Tilghman made certain statements
which were so manifestly unfair and
so certainly untrue that feel that |
must correct them. If after reading
this statement, Mr.. Tilghman contin-
ues to repeat them, l have no doubt
but that the unprejud;ced, fairminded
people of the county will know where
to place the author of the SANDER, and
will proceed to do it.
In the speeches made by Mr.. Thigh
man at these places he stated that l
was "the candidate of the Catholics of
the county," the implication being that
l had been brought out by them to
defeat him.
In answer to this statement of Mr..
Tilghman's l desire to say:
First, that no Catholic, individual
or organization representing that
church, ever said one word to me with
reference to my becoming candidate
for the legislature. l was influenced
to become such candidate by several
gentlemen of Palatka and Putnam
county, all of whom, it so happens,
are prominent workers in Protestant
churches and one Of whom is a we'll
known Protestant clergyman.
Second, that since becoming candi-
date I have been approached by no
individual Catholic, or any organiza-
ton representing that church, or any
of it's lay or clerical societies, for the
purpose of learning how l stood on
any question hatsoever; that have
made no pledge to any man or set OF
men, the carrying out of which as
member of the Legislature, would re-
quire violation of my solemn oath
"to support and defend the Constitu-
ticn of the United States and the State
Of Florida, so help me God"
I am a candidate for the Legisla-
ture as a Democrat, and only as a
Democrat, a party whose fundamental
principles are broad enough to admit
to its ranks all who believe in "gov-
ernment of, by and for the people"
and which stands for equal rights
for all and SPECIAL PRIVILEGES
TO NONE" In event of my election
| shall be free to fulfill my solemn
obligation as a legislator of the State
of Florida, and do not believe there
is a man in Putnam county who
knows me, no matter what else he
may think of me, who believes that
W. A. Russell would PERI URE him
self in office or out of it.
A wiser and better-known man than
myself has said:
"No candidate who attempts to cap
italize the prejudices of the people
should be elected. 1t doesn't matter
what direction the prejudice may
take. If it is prejudice and CANDI-
DATE PLAYS UPON AND MAGNI-
FIES it for the PURPOSE OF TURN
ING VOTES away from some certain
other candidate, and turning votes to
HIMSELF, he may be written down
as UNWORTHY OF CONFIDENCE
AND SUPPORT. We might put it
even stronger, and say that person
who RESORTS TO SUCH TACTICS
TO GAIN VOTES is NOT IN THE
STRICTEST SENSE HONEST"
(Signed) w. A. RUSSELL.
