1000 GATHERED At BARLOW
YESTERDAY To PROTEST RE-
M0vAL Of SHERIFF LOGAN
AfN M.A

That the people Of this county are
thoroughly aroused by the unjust and
uncalled-for removal of Sheriff John
Logan from Office by Governor Cats
was demonstrated yesterday after.
noon when, in a few hours notice,
some 1000 people gathered at Barlow
to protest against this action. The
meeting was made up of the highest
class of the county's citizenship, and
the attendance included every section
of the county.
The meeting expressed in the most
positive terms, through addresses by
prominent citizens, and through reso-
lutions enthusiastically carried, con-
fidence in Sheriff Logan and disap-
proved of his removal. The resolu-
lions included an urgent request to
Gov. Cats to reconsider his proposed
action, and delegation of twelve
leading citizens from as many differ
ent communities in the county was
appointed to convey the resolutions
to Gov. Cats, who was supposed to
be at Lakeland, and to request that
the Sheriff be not removed. 1t was
announced that all who could do so
were invited to accompany the COM
mittee to Lakeland as "a guard Of
honor" to show the committee had
the approval and backing of the citi-
zenship.
When the committee reached Lake
land the Governor could not be found.
1t was said he had gone to Plant City
to dine with Attorney E. P. Martin,
friend of his, and later he was re.
ported as being at Mulberry. Finally
it was found that he had reached
Lakeland and had gone out to the
home of Mr.. r. l.. Mayes in Dixie
land A delegation went out to see
him and invite him to meet the COM
mittee, but the Governor demurred,
on the ground that he did not care
to transact any business on the Sab.
bath. The committee then offered to
conform to the Governors conven-
fence as to the time of meeting, and
eventually he agreed to meet with
the gentlemen at o'clock this after
noon, He added, however, that iii

GOVERNOR MEETS
COMMITTEE WILL
CONSIDER NOTHING
BUT AFF|DAV|TS

Governor Cats this afternoon met
the committee of citizens appointed
by the mass meeting at Barlow yes.
terday. He accepted the resolutions,
requesting that Sheriff Logan be not
removed, "for what they are WORTH"
stating that he would consider MOTH
ing but sworn statements.
The Governor declared he had fifty
or more affidavits to the effect that
Sheriff Logan had not visited Mulber-
ry except infrequently during the time
of the strike trouble, and that he had
been otherwise negligent, or failed in
his official duty. It will be necessary
he said, to have affidavits offsetting
these charges before he could give con-
sideration to any proposition to retain
the present Sheriff in office.
He said that it would require some
time to perfect the bond Of James W..
Langford, and pending execution Of
same he would consider any sworn
statements made in the Sheriff's be-
half. He declined to pay any atten-
ton, whatever to the statements of
the committee, insisting that nothing
but affidavits would be considered.
Enough affidavits to John Logan's
ability, bravery, and devotion to duty
can be secured in this county to ex-
tend all the way to Tallahassee and
return.

MALICIOUS CONSTRUCTION
PLACED ON PRESENCE
OF CITIZENS GATHERED
HERE YESTERDAY

When the committee appointed by
the mass meeting of citizens to con-
vey to the Governor their protest
against the removal of Sheriff Logan
left Barlow, probably 100 citizens
came over in cars with them. These
men were, without exception, among
the most substantial men in the coun-
ty. They had come from various
parts of the county to add their voice
to the general protest against what
seemed to them a mistaken and un-
warranted action, and being in their
cars, they came on over to encourage
the committee in the performance of
the duty delegated to it, being invited
and urged to do so by Hon. j. N.
Hooker, chairman of the meeting.
Imagine, therefore, the surprise
and disgust of these men, who came
with the most courteous bearing and
the best intentions, when it became
known that some mischief maker had
started the report that "a mob had
gathered at the KILLER to intimidate
Gov. Cats" Indeed these malicious
liars went so far as to declare that
there might be some intention to Of
fer violence to the Governor. The
rumor was carried to the Sheriff who
was i'll at his home, but who despite
his physical condition, armed himself
and hurried to this city, arriving in
state Of great excitement, and TAX
ing a stand in the hotel corridors to
prevent eny unwarranted intrusion
on the executive.
The men who were lingering in
front of the hotel waiting the arrival
of the Governor, who had been re-
pol ed DIS On his way from Mulberry,
were much amused at this, thinking
it good joke on the Sheriff; but the
| Telegram knowing how these things
get distorted, and having personal
, l.aoW ledge Of the facts, desires to
state that there was not man pres
ent in that gathering who would have
offered the Governor anything but
the most courteous and kindly treat
ment, and every man of them would
have personally protected the Cover
nor if there had been any occasion
for such protection.

The meeting at Barlow was said to
be one of the biggest ever gotten up
to express public sentiment in this
county. Certainly it was one Of the
biggest ever gotten together ON such
short notice. The meeting was called

which he commended the Sheriff
most highly and expressed resent

Sheriff Logan in Office and that the
