Mr.. sTockToN's LETTER

q
In his letter. to the democrats oil
Florida Mr.. TeIfair Stockton Of Jack
sonville, says that he believes in
democratic principles. but fails to en-
tighten them as to what in his est
nation are democratic principles"
Reading his letter ever so studious
ly one does not know how Mr.. Stock
ton stands on any of the measures
now before the country pressing foI
solution. +
True, he says that he does not
stand with the faction that is radical
towards capital. nor with the faction
that is controlled by corporate inter
ests.
This is merely meandering between
Scylla and Charabdis, touching at
neither point and stopping nowhere.
+ OF course one is to understand
that Mr.. Stockton holds that Govern
or Cltts heads that faction coverJiy
advocating socialistic doctrines and
whose attitude towards capital is
very radical, and that Senator fetch
g: telongs to that faction which he
describes nc ''reactionary and con
trolled by the corporate interests and
big business"
There is no doubt, Mr. Stockton
says, that a great majority of the PEG
pie of Florida believe in progressive
legislation, but that such legislation
should be in Accordance with demo
cratic principles having due regard
for the rights gof labor and capital
without discrimination
IN what particular has Senator
Fletcher violated democratic princi-
pies by not giving due regard for the
rights of labor as well as the rights
of capital?
If Mr. Stockton proposes to become
candidate for United States senator
he should be explicit on those points
and not deal in mere generalities and
nothingness.
This paper has watched the course
of Senator Fletcher with much con
Germ and it seems to it that he has
held up the hands of the Wilson adj
ministration on nearly ali important
measures. and surely Mr. Stockton
does not hold that the Wilson adj
ministration has not been true to the
teachings and traditions Of the demo
cratic party?
The only failure that this paper can
call to mind when Senator Fletcher
failed to do so was when he refused
to vote for the woman suffrage amend
ment, and surely that can hardly be
"a sufficient ground for turning him
down.
Referring specifically as to what
are regarded the just demands of la.
Dor and capital it may be well to
state that Wall street claims that
President Wilson has gone too far in
favor of the demands of labor, while
the enemies of Wall street do not
hesitate to say that Wall street con
trolls President Wilson body and
soul.
In word, one faction claims that
he is yielding to the demand of labor
in order to cabbage the labor vote in
the next presidential contest, while
the other faction claims that capital
has him firmly clutched in its re-
morseless tentacles.
In the humble judgment Of this pa
per the present democratic admins
tration is the most illustrous in his
tory; that it has placed the United
States on the map of the world in
the most Illuminating colors; and IN
making this record, the greatest ever
told, one of it's most active agents
warmest and most aggressive sup
porters is Senator Duncan q. Fletcher

HOW DO OUR CANDIDATES FOR
GovRNoR STAND?
To the Editor Banner

! 10 the E0ICOr banner:
| In your last issue you say that the
candidates for governor have not de-
clared themselves on important is
sues and then syOu proceed to men
ton four such issues. Since two OF
the four have no relation to the gov
ernors duties I fear you are nearly
as bad as the candidates. The gov
ernor Of state has nothing whatever
J to do with the ratification OF treaty,
hence what difference does it make
what his views are concerning it..
Neither has the governor any voice
in the matter of suffrage. So why
drag such immaterial questions into
the campaign. May | suggest one or
two important questions for you to
PROFOUND to the candidates.
| LIST. If elected governor what meas
ures, if any, will you recommend and
honestly urge to put stop to lynch
| ing in Florida? Especially will you
urge the enactment. of legislation I'M
der which peace Officers, sheriffs,
ETC., will forfeit their office if pris-
oner is taken from, their custody ex-
cept by process OF law.
I'd. What do you suggest and will
urge as a remedy for our present tax
system?
Sd. What offices, ii any, do you con-
slider useless and will honestly urge
their abolition?
4th. What are your views and what
will you urge as to reducing the mum
Der of circuit court districts in this
state?
I could mention other matters, but
these are enough forfthe present
r. McCONATHY
Sept. 80, 1919.
When the article to which Judge
McConathy refers was written Sena-
toir Fletcher had Just happened TO
a severe accident. which, at the time,
was feared would prove fatal
Had such a calamity befalIen the
state the appointment Of his success
or would have been in the hands Of
the governor, and IF that official had
been opposed, let us say. to the rati-
ficatiOn Of the league of nations by
the senate of the United States,
some such scapegrace as Jim Reed
Of Missouri, might have been appoint
ed, who. in the Judgment of many of
US, would have reflected discredit if
not dishonor gpoa the state in voting
against the ratification of the treaty.
Then, also, while it is true that the
governor cannot veto the ratifca-
tion of a federal constitutional amend
ment passed by a state legislature,
he can exercise great potential
strength in favor of or for the re-
lection of the same.
/ So in the judgment of this paper it
is of paramount importance for the
voters to know how the candidates
seeking gubernatorial honors stand
upon all current issues of moment
The questions suggested by Judge
McConathy are important ones, and
we hope that later on he will suggest
Fothers, and in such a pressing and
positive manner as to make the can
didates square themselves upon them.
The voters have the right to know
these things and no man should an
nounce his candidacy for governor Of

Government To Begin
Tuberculosis Fight;
Big Session I omorrou

Atlantic City. n. J.. June 1S.-One OF
the greatest victories OF the war was
the triumph OF modern medicine in
the control Of acute infectious dis
eases, but even greater benefit will
result from the fact that the war also
opened the eyes OF the government, as
well as the people. to the great in

annual meeting Of the National Tu-

As a result Of the ravages Of the

immediate creation of a division Of

Government officials. as wen as
health authorities from every state in
the union are here to discuss plans
for a new nation wide campaign
against preventable disease.
DR.. Charles J. Hatfield, managing
director Of the national associa ton,
points out that. although tuberculosis
causes 150, 900 deaths annually IN this
country, the burden of the fight
against the disease is being borne by
voluntary associations. Even their
work. he said. IS greatly handicapped
by inadequate laws.
That the spread OF tuberculosis IN
this country is due largely to patients
who travel from one place to another
seeking a magical climate that will
cure them. and who have not suffi-
cient means to properly care for
themselves. Is pointed out By James
H. Pershings who will read a report

Fifty yards away the waves hurled
