1T WASN'T THE
GOVERNORS ERROR

Noting our comment on sending $50
home guards to Madison, well-post-
ed and reliable friend in Tallahassee
sends US the following reasons for so
doing:
When the three men, J. B. Barton,
II. E. Tolar and G. S. Mobley, were
put on trial in Live Oak last spring,
and change of venue was granted, a
most determined attempt to carry
| them off was made, and the indica-
tons were that they would have been
| lynched, and many threats against
them have been made since, and the
governor was urged by the circuit
| Judge, the sheriff of Madison county
and many prominent citizens to give
the accused protection at their trial
| last week.
The Stars criticism was aimed
rather at the large force sent TO Madi-
son than anything else. Assuming
| that most of the citizens of that town
are law-abiding, and unwilling for
their town to be disgraced by an as
sault on men on trial, we should have
! thought that fifty soldiers were
enough to guard the defendants
against a raid from another county.
Our opinion is borne out by the fact
that the trial proceeded without dis
| order, and, it having resulted in a
mistrial, the defendants and the
troops guarding them departed in
peace to Jacksonville Saturday
4 80 @1.1 nj
the sheriff asked the governor for the
troops, he could do no less than send
/ them, and SO his part in the affair
was strictly according to his sworn
duty.

JUSTICE WHITFIELD
WILL RUN AGAIN

For the last few months, it has
been matter of doubt with Justice
Whitfield of the state supreme court.
whose term expires with the end of
next year, as to whether he would
again be a candidate. He has served
well and faithfully and he had about
made up his mind to retire to private
life.
Justice Whitfield, however, during
the years he has occupied a place on
the supreme bench, has impressed a
very large proportion of the public
men of Florida with a sincere belief
in his integrity and good judgment,
and when the report spread that he
would retire, many of these remon-
strated and insisted that the justice
stand for nomination for another
term in next years primary.
After careful consideration, the JUS
tice has yielded to the wishes of his
friends and will again be a candidate
for the position he has for years filled
so well.
The Star has little doubt that this
decision of Judge Whitfield is equiv
alent to his nomination. He has filled
his place in the supreme court most
ably, and it will be to the interest of
the people of Florida to keep him
there as long as possible.

Every week brings news instances
of the unreliable news sent out of
Tallahassee. Last week there was a
story to the effect that the board of
control intended to forbid students in
state educational institutions to be
members of college fraternities; also
that it intended to compel all the
students to dress in uniform. The
responsibilitysfor these innovations
was laid on Bryan Mack, secretary OF
the board, and the tone of the reports
would lead the reader to surmise that
Mack was running the board. Sat.
urday, Mr. E. L. Wartmann of Citra
a member of the board, was in OcaIa
and said to a Star reporter that nc
such measures were contemplated;
in fact, he said, he thought the board
was rather favorable to college fra.
ternities. We see by the Jackson.

CAN'T WE BUY A TRUCK
FOR A COMPANY?

The Star is informed that a great
many of the companies in the national
guard regiments training at Camp
their baggage and supplies and a lot
of other burdens that our boys of
Company A have to tote on their
backs and shoulders.
A good, sturdy little Ford truck,
such as would do the work of a whole
pack train, would cost only $435 and
save our boys many weary step and
heavy lift.
The members of Company A, like
all the other soldiers in the American
training camps, are doing hard work
every day. They are working harder
than the average farmer, mechanic or
business man. When they go on the
battle front they must not only face
danger and endure privation, but they
will also have to do much herculean
work, and the war department is pre-
pairing them for it by giving them as
much or more to do than they will
have to do in Europe. The only holt
day they can look forward to until
the war is over will be the journey to
France, which will be made under cir
| cumstances that would make it a
very uncomfortable trip to any but
seasoned men.
Can't the people of this big county
that brags on it's resources, buy lit
tie Ford truck to make easier the toll
of it's soldier sons.
We are mighty poor man ourself
but we will start the fund with five

Seeing that Lincoln Hulley. presi-

senator, a number of enthusiastic
people and papers propose to nomi-

be a distinct improvement on the

years ago, a postoffice was set up in

a number of people got into the

many friends in that section, suggest

good old name of Fellowship, which
was bestowed on the settlement by

They adopted the suggestion, but oc-
casionally a forgetful person will use
the discredited name Berlin. If the
Independent knew that community as
well as the Star does, it would never
advise anybody to move away from it.
