The Punta Gorda herald. [volume] (Punta Gorda, Fla.) 1893-1958, 1919-01-23

Lakeland Advertiser: = TIL e
Punta Gorda Herald is thirty
three years old, more than half
its age having been under the
present ownership and with it's
present editor, A. P. Jordan, as
its guiding genius. During that
time it has stood as one of the
leading papers of the state. TIVE
can but admire the outspoken way
1t has taken its position on public
questions, and the good logic that
it has always used to support it's
views. The Herald has been
worth much to the state of Flori-
ola, and to DeSoto county and
Punta Gorda. May it long con-
tinue to WELD its good influences,
under the same good management
as at present.

We said we stole the items from
you and afterwards found that
you had stolen them from a noted

how meek all the editors got on
the suffrage question after fight
ing with their wives against the
thing for years. Neat looking
little lady slipped through p reso-
luton that strung and hog

murmur. Even George Goolsbv
had cold feet and was docile as a
Shropshire lamb. Between the
lines, we wish to slip a note to
Mrs. George that next time she

Chris Codrington of the De-

over what he regards as a gloomy
outlook for the United States, and
he prints in his paper a stirring
appeal to our members of con-

country. When we think of ig-
norant roustabouts being paid
$500 day and up and threaten
ing to strike for higher wages, we
are inclined to agree with Chris.

Ocala Star:-The appointment
Of DR.. McClane to the office of

to keep the spotlight on all public
institutions. No abuse can Who'll

The newspapers are beginning
to complain bitterly of the very
unjust treatment visited upon
them by the government. They
should form a union, like the
common laborers do, and order a
general strike until better treat
ment is given them. At any rate,
they should oppose any candidate
for congress who will not pledge
himself, if elected, to use his best
efforts to secure fair treatment
for the newspapers.

is in receipt of letter from c. w.
Raney, formerly member of the class
in agriculture. who spent much time
overseas and has returned and is now
in charge of 300-acre farm near ST,

ether interest. The former kaiser i
quoted as saying to his troops whel
they became members of his army
'sYou are mine, body and soul. You
belong to me and it is your duty t.
obey me. Should it become necessary
for me to order you to shoot your OWL
relatives, aye, even your father ant
your mother, (Which God forbid that
l should be required to do) it would
be your duty to obey that order"
1t has never been denied though
often repeated, that this statement
is one issued to the kaiser's troops
by the former emperor when address
ing them personally. Is there any
wonder that people reared under
such government for several gene
rations, should come to believe i'm
plicitly in the "sacredness" of the
kaiser?
When the cowardly brutes sunk the
ships in Scapa Flow, the day before
Germany announced she would ac-
cept the treaty terms, the officers
announcing that they obeyed the for
mer kaiser's orders, officers shot and
killed German privates who started
to obey the orders of American Off
GERS to return and close the sea cocks
in the sinking vessels. One German
officer shot and killed three German
privates who started to return to the
ships and save them from sinking.
Fortunately he, with six others, was
shot and instantly killed by Ameri-
can marines.
You can't deal with people of that
type as you could with human beings
of a higher order of intelligence and
more regard for honor and less re-
gard for the orders from those "high-
err up The British subdued and
civilized the savage tribes of India
and South America and can trust
them to do as they agree to do. The
Americans subdued the Indian, and
established a stable government in
Cuba and the Philippines, because the
natives and the mixed races had some
sense of honor, but they find the Ger
man is different type and can never
be trusted under any circumstances.
Recent developments connected with
the closing scenes of the peace treaty
and the insolence manifested by the
Huns lead to the unpleasant belief
that it may yet be necessary to use
further force to compel the Huns to
comply with the peace terms. They
nave shown that they will do absolute
y nothing unless compelled by force
% do it. Berton Braley, who has
spent much time among the Germans,
warns us that they are utterly incap
lble of realizing even now, that any
# their acts have been wrong and
annot understand that the world des-
Uses them as people nor could they
understand why. Even the Russians,
Who were serfs for generations, are
howing a quicker grasp of civilized
otions than the Hun. Their case is
yell nigh hopeless.

Suggestion Made
VIII Save Millions

The people of Louisiana will save
millions of dollars annually and pre-
vent the insurance companies from
charging excess profits at lie ex-
pense Of the taxpayers, according to
State Fire Marshall w. NJ Campbell,
II the Legislature will pass law es-
tablishing the two-platoon system in
fire departments. The insurance
companies have been charging these
high rates to their own benefit for
some years past.
The two-platoon system offers .
solution.
Mr.. Campbell was unable to attend
the State Firemenis Fourteenth An.
fsnual Convention in Bogalusa, but
this was the substance Of letter he
addressed to Fl. H. Gautier, president
of the State Firemen's Association,
which concluded three-day session
here last Thursday.
'SThe firemen of the state.1 said
Mr.. Campbell, should go before the
Legislature and ask the adoption Of
the two-platoon system so they may
have the advantages accorded men in
practically every other walk Of life
that of seeing their families occa-
sionally and working, not "a, but IL
hours per day. Such law would so
reduce risks that Insurance coIn-
panies would no longer have an ex-
cuse for charging the present high
rates and would result in saving Of
millions of dollars to the people in
premiums alone"
The convention appointed legis-
lative committee to present bill for
the establishment OF q two-platoOn
system, which was drafted bv the or
ganization, and discussion Of this
measure was the most prominent fea-
ture of the sessions.
The delegates also put themselves
on record as favoring revision of
