CATS HAS HIS EYE ON THE SEN
ATE

The o7inion = becoming general that
the removal Of Bowling from the of
fee of sheriff of Du1~l county and the
appointment OF hayes Lewis in his
stead is done fer the purpose Of build
ing up a Cats organization, the pur-
pose of which is to Gust Senator
Fletcher when his term expires and
install Governor Cats in his place.
The Washington correspondent OF
the Pensacola Journal says:
1T IS considered here as quite prob
able that the next session Of the Flor
ida legislature viii overrule Cats
dismissal Of Downing, in which event
Dowling will have to be paid by the
state for ali the time since he was
dismissed If that is done the state
will be "gouged" as Lewis and Dowi-
ing will both receive a salary.
Should bowling be nominated for
sheriff of Duval county again next
sumner. as a rebuhe to Governor
Cats. it is considered here as almost
la certainty that the Florida legisla
ture. when it meets two years from
now will abide by the expressed wish
Is of the people of Jacksonville and
decline to approve Bowling dismiss
al. which will then force Lewis to abb
dictate.
Florida politicians in Washington
are closely watching events in the
state. as they firmly believe they
clearly indicate Cats will run for the
senate in 1919 against Senator
Fletcher"

A LOYAL AND PATRIOTIC PEOPLE

The fact that the two billion lib.
erty bond issue was oversubscribed
Tor in the time specified by Our public
spirited citizens was most gratifying
to Mr.. McAdoo and the administra-
ton, but the purchase of those bonds
was not entirely one of patriotism. as
the bonds will pass current in the
purchase Of supplies and in the pay
ment of debts, and if placed in safe
ty deposit boxes will pay handsome
dividends in the way of interest at
the rate of 312 per cent, free of taxa
ton, but the response to the appeal
for one hundred million dollars for
the Red Cross is a patriotic donation
pure and simple. 1t feels its way to
the very heart of patriotism and loyal
~ and touches the most generous i'm
pulses of ones nature.
That this donatio mis- being met with
the same generous promptness with
which the liberty bond" issue was
met is indeed most gratifying, and
one wants no other proof that ours
is patriotic and loyal people, and
right behind the president in his great
struggle for the salvation of the ma
tions.

Their souls swelled with pride of
conquest, the conquest of love. Their
steps quickened to heartbeats of graf

had won. for the country was one
country, and that one theirs.
There was not one of the gray-coat-
ed men but would have in the sixties
willingly given his life if his cause
might have been triumphant; if the
forces of Dixie might have marched
victorious up the avenue. But now,
% years afterwards, loving his cause
as much as ever. no less devoted to
the Stars and Bars than in the days
gone by he rejoiced that after all the
country was not broken, that he was
a citizen Of the United States and q
part of united people.

POLITICAL POT ALREADY BOIL
ING

A special from the Pensacola Jour
nal from Blountstown says that at a
big picnic at Idlewild, down on the
Dead Lakes, Hon Cephus L. Wilson
announced his candidacy for governor
in 1920, and Hon. Rivers H. Buford
told the assembled throng of his am
bition to become a member of the
supreme bench.
Mr. Wilson said when he was a
small boy his grandfather was circuit
judge of Jackson county. and that his
ambition was to be judge of the same
circuit when he got to be a man, and
that his ambitions in that respect had
become reality. He said he had fur
Their ambitions and could never be sat
isfied until he reached the coveted
goal. and that ambition was to be
governor of the state of Florida,
Mr.. Buford reverted back to the
days of his childhood. He reminded
his old acquaintance of how he had
advanced from pillow boy of Calhoun
county to the important office of state
attorney, and told them that it was
his ambition to be one of the judges
of the highest court in the state. He
concluded by soliciting support of his
candidacy for justice of the Florida
supreme court
Governor Cats was present, and
made a talk also. His subject was
Florida and Patriotism. He said that
no flag should ever float over or above
the Stars and Stripes if he could live
to pull it down.

Good government is based on good
citizenship. Without good citizenship
there can be no good government. A
government composed of "slackers. 4"
"grumblers," ''trouble-makers" and

citizenship by standing behind the

nembered that the legality of the
election was disputed. and the same
was left to a referee-Mr. Emanuel

the election was Illegal because the
mandates of the statutes were not
followed in the matter Of printing
the tickets.
The matter was then taken before
Judge Bullock. and after lengthy and
exhaustive arguments he sustained
the findings of the referee. A su

of county commissioners by Judge
Bullock. and counsel were before the

nosday on a motion to vacate the su
persedeas. Mr. H. ". Hampton, rep
resenting Mr. John T. Moore. argued
to vacate the supersedeas, and Mr..

of county commissioners, argued TO
sustain it.
