FOR SENATOR 10Th DISTRICT

To the Democratic Voters of Marion
and Sumter Counties Comprising
the Goth Senatorial District:
l am a candidate for senator in the
primary election to be held June 4th,
1913. thoroughly appreciate the
honor of having served as one of Mar
ions representatives in the last two
sessions of the legislature. I served
my people faithfully, loyalty, honest
ly and conscientiously. I realize that
the knowledge and experience as rep
resentative two terms will enable me
to make the people of the twentieth
district better senator. I will ap-
preciate your support and if nominal
ed / pledge faithful service to the
people of Marion and Sumter coun-
ties, working for their best interests,
as well as for the whole state.
Respectfully yours, W. ]. Crosby.

Our friend Ben Raysor was in to
Sc US this morning and informed US
that he would run fol the legislature
on the fence, if anybody else would.
We don't mean by that that Ben would
sit on the fence-far from It, Ben
wants a fence law. for Marion county,
a four-barbed wire, whatever that is
the fences we used to help build
were of rails, and had to be ten feet
high, staked and ridered, with no
more than three inches between the
rails. A 4-inch crack would invali-
date your whole fence. But Ben
wants four strands of barbed wire,
for Marion county, except east Of
the river, where nine-tenths of the
;land-or maybe 19-20ths, isn't under
fence. Ben doesn't want to run if
anybody else will run, but he wants
somebody to run on that issue so as to
get the thing started. We guess it will
be just as well to have a showdown
of the subject, so if Ben runs we are
going to observe his progress with
interest.

Editorials written last week before
the German drive began, jeering at
the idea of a German offensive, have
a pitiably bombastic style-as read
today. The great weakness in this
war work has been the failure of the
people of Great Britain and the Unit
ed States to realize the terrible eff
cheney of the German people. The
lessons learned in this war will pay
for the suffering and the loss from the
war-but it will be many year be-
fore the sufferers and the losers can
be reconciled to it.-Miami Metrop-
