CALkINS IS URGED
TO MAKE CONTEST
FOR GOVERNOR
FRIENDS BELIEVE HE WILL BE
COMPROMISE CANDIDATE WHO
CAN SWEEP THE STATE-WILL
GIVE THE MATTER SERIOUS
CONSIDERATION.

Friends of Hon. James E. Calkins
Of Fernandina, president of the Flori-
da senate, are urging him to abandon
his candidacy for attorney general
and make the race for governor, be-
lieving that he will be happy solu-
tion of the present condition of the
gubernatorial contest.
Mr.. Calkins was visitor in Palat-
ka yesterday en- route to points on
the east coast. He is travelling over
the state greeting his friends, al
though, as yet, he has no opposition
for the office. He stated here that
he was not convinced that the people
vf the state wanted him to offer for
the office of governor, although every
where he goes he is urged to make
the race.
At present there are three avowed
candidates for the office in the race,
Hon. Carey Hardee, of Live Oak, At,
torney General Van G. Swearingen
and DR.. Lincoln Hulley. The lines
between these three candidates are
very closely drawn. Mr.. Swearingen
is regarded as representing the radi-
cal element, declaring in his speeches
that he stands with the masses
against the classes. 1t is tacitly un-
derstood that Mr.. Hardee represents
the element referred to by Mr.. Swear
ingen as "the classes" He is par
ticularly strong among the banking
interests of the state, but there are
many who believes that as a whole,
this will operate against his chances
of election. DR.. Hulley's chances
are minimized by his senate record
and his candidacy is not regarded as
being particularly promising.
Mr.. Calkins has assured all Of his
friends that he will give the matter
his serious consideration and will
leave the final decision up to those
who are anxious to see a conserva-
tive and constructive man at the
head of the states affairs yet ore
one who can be elected.

STRIKE SITUATION SEEMA
TO BE AT A STANDSTILL.
(By United Press.)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2O-Ration-
ing of coal fo the present has been
definitely decided on as necessary by
the fuel administration, and orders to
this effect have been sent out to the
various sections.
War time regulations will prevail.
In the south the purchasings of coal
for home use is limited to one ton.
This applies to all territory east of the
Mississippi and south of the Ohio riv-
evrs.
The Southern region it was said, is
dependent now upon coal produced in
the Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Ten
nessee and Virginia fields and pro-
duction in these mines is less than
lore-third OF +, normal Making kthe
South dependent on its own fields, it
was said, had become necessary by
reason of coal for the South from the
Allegheny and Pocahontas fields being
diverted to the middle West and 9TH
er sections to supply public utilities
and transportation lines. Southern
mines too are sending coal to the
Southwest.

the negro press in general TO be reck-

Note of Pride Sounded
"In all the discussions of the re-
cent race riots there is reflected the
note of pride that the negro has
found himself, that he has enough
back that never again will he tamely
submit to violence or intimidation.
"The sense of oppression finds in
creasingly bitter expression. Def

condemnation of the white race is to

publications"
The report then quotes at length
statements from the radical negro
publications.
