There had been a negro excursion

Some succeeded. Wright was among

From the West and middle West
came a number of messages telling of
towns stirred to activity on behalf of
the Red Cross for the first time as
the formal mercy fund campaign pc

Henry P. Dawson, chairman of the

today to obtain modification of al

accompanying Red Cross hospital

ut is not difficult to appreciate the
attitude of the allied governments.

might perhaps be applied in a coun-
try containing only relatively small
number of citizens of alien birth. Rut
to apply such an invariable rule with
reference to workers from such a
people as our own, must inevitably
result in unfair discrimination against
some of our most patriotic and re-

GOVERNOR THREATENED
TO CALL OUT TROOPS
Unless Messer Gave Up
Office of Hotel Com
missioner.

State Auditor R. A. Gray has eX-
amined the books and records in the
office of State Hotel Commissioner
Messcr, and in a written statement
has said that the books and records
of the office are in perfect condition.
1t will be remembered that Mr..
Messer, whose term of office does not
expire until the spring of 1919, was
suspended from office early last week
by Gov. Cats, who charged that Mes
ser was guilty of misfeasance and
malfeasance in office. Messer refuS-
ed to give up the office under charges;
said he would give up the place on
the order of the court. He was ad-
vised by Hon. F. M. Hudson. one of
the best attorneys in Florida. Mr..
jerry Carter had been appointed by
Gov Cats to succeed Messer, and it
was expected that he would take le
gal proceedings. But he did not. On
Tuesday, a dispatch from Tallahassee
said:
Me9ser gave up the hotel commits
soner's office at noon today and .Jer-
~ Carter is on the job. Cats gave
Sheriff Houston of this county an or
der to take from Messer all the KEYS
and the office fixtures and other
states belongings in the hotel COM
mlssioner's office and deliver the
same to Jerry Carter, appointed to
succeed Messer. The order did not
include the arrest of Messer or ex-
ouIslon OF him from office, but SIM
bly, the taking of state property from
lin.
~ Messer gave the keys to the shcr-
II and the officer turned them over
o Garter and left Carter in charge
f the office.
Messer asked the sheriff what
'ould happen if he refused and Hous-
on replied that he would have to
AXE the property by force. Then
lesser yielded and said simply that
e wanted to know what the order
leant.

Tax Assessor Billiards. Message.

Tax Assessor Billiards. Message.
To the Tax Payers of Putnam County
write this to tell you that | have
gone over the orange sections, on my
book, and cut 20 per cent from val
ues where such values were really on
orange groves. This per cent off is
small considering the damage done by
the cold, but to consider the heavy
appropriations made by the last Leg
islature, 20 per cent off for 1917 and
perhaps the same for 1918, is as far
as | could go considering the request
of our Tax Commissioning value all
at so per cent of full or real value.
In the potato sections l have added
some to values; some on the unim-
proved lands, and l have obtained
about the number of improved acres
and have added to each this acreage
and valued same at thirty dollars per
acre, which will, Of course increase
values where the increase of improv-
ed acres are. l feel safe in saying
that | have not estimated have
none over the so per cent of full
value.
Also, | wish to state that where
one has not returned his auto-and
have gotten same by information as
the law requires me to do-this too
will increase values, and when you
are paying your taxes, do not be has
ty in saying have over assessed you
las some have already done) but come
now and see what I have for you be-
fore l make up my books.
G. F. BULLARD,
Tax Assessor.

FOOD CONTROL
BILL is NEEDED.

Reports indicate that the Senate
will strengthen and pass the Food
Control bill by the end of the pres
ent week, and that as passed it will
place greater power in the hands of
the President than the bill which
passed the House.
That the two branches of Congress
will agree in conference is assured
The passage of this measure will
do much toward winning this war. 1t
will take the clutches of the food pi-
rates off the American kitchen.
The result of the war hangs large
" on the control and distribution of
this summers harvest, and the Con-
gress should lose no time in getting
this measure through.
1t has been talking too long. While
Congress has been talking the food
spectators have been making mill
ions. Already they have bought up
the entire output of canned goods for
1917-bought it from the Gamers
while the crops are still growing.
On wheat alone It's said the spec
ulators have grabbed a monthly rake
off of $50,O00,OOO
Hoover's job is to cut out the mid
die men; in doing this he will lower
prices. He will make it possible to
distribute food products without fric-
ton. With the Spectator eliminat-
ed there will be no one to hold I'D
the people for famine prices. In fact
it is possible that in America, where
the food is raised, the price will be
no greater than in England and
France. where we have been shipping
much of it.
