During the time Edwards has been
your Superintendent of Public Instruc-
ton he has labored diligently for the
betterment OF the schools OF EscaIn-
bia County. Some of the achievements
Of his administration are as follows:
Several OF the most substantial and
modern school buildings to be found
anywhere have been erected in this
county during his administration.
Escambia County now has fifteen
special tax school districts, all created
during his administration.
Every white school in the county
now has a term of eight months. The
majority of rural schools had only
four months when he assumed the of
flee.
Seventy three class rooms for the
housing of school children of the city
and county have been erected under
his supervision. This may give you
some idea of the county's growth
and development.
The ventilation, lighting, seating and
furnishing of the above mentioned
school rooms have received his care
full consideration and attention. This
experience better qualities him for
this work in the future.
The enrolment in the schools haE
increased during. his term of office ap-
proximately 1900. This viii give some
idea of the perplexing problems thrust
upon him by the World War. He has
met this responsibility and succeeded
by honest effort in holding the schools
up to a reasonable degree of efficiency

capped by a shortage of teachers, in
sufficient funds with which to pay
them and more than 100 per cent in

The attempt to charge him with
the delay in receiving school books on
time last fall, fell through when it
became known that two months before
schools opened he had placed an or

TO supply the demands.
The following telegram explains why
they were not received.

ically unfit when in the city Jail and
where he first called for doctor, but
no attention was paid to his request :
When he reached the workfarm and
was set to work, Gonyea informed his
keepers that he was sick and wanted a
doctor. That, presumably, was looked
upon as scheme to avoid heavy work,
for no heed was given to the boys
statements.
After dragging through eight long,
weary, burdensome days, Gonyea's con-
dition became so apparent that even
Supt. Erickson saw that the boy really
was sick. The sufferer was sent to
his bunk in the dormitory and his
clothing taken away from him, but no
medical aid was summoned, although
the prisoner repeatedly called for it.
Whenever Gonyea called for doctor,
an attempt was made to give him a
dose Of rusty salts. No good came
from that nauseous dosage.
After some days in bed, Erickson
ordered Gonyea to get up, dress and
come downstairs. He managed to do
so, but collapsed from weakness after
he got downstairs. Supt. Erickson
again sent the sick boy back to his
bunk, in that unwarmed dormitory,
without care, proper diet or medical at
tention, during some Of the coolest
weather of the season.
The toilet in the dormitory was
clogged up last summer and the door
nailed up. When Gonyea was there,
the toilet was open, but there were
neither towels, soap nor drinking cups.
The prisoner was so weak and the dor.
mitory was so cold that he was utterly
unable to get to the toilet to answer
the calls Of outraged nature. And his
neglected interior was in such a clog
ged, abnormal, dangerous condition
that proper response to natures call
was impossible, anyway.
The clogged intestines and the gen.
eral condition of the sufferers system
was such that, finally, he could not
masticate the dry bread and rubberoid
pancakes. When it came to swallowing
that stale skim-milk, the boys system
abhorred it so that the nauseous stuff
ran out of his mouth instead of going
down his gullet.
Gonyea had worked when physically
unfit for about eight days. He had
laid neglected for about another eight
days. He finally became so weak that
he could not move. His condition was
becoming very critical.
A guard was showing prisoner his
bunk, when he realized Gonyea's des-
perate situation. The chap was so

but a jury Of twelve men found her
guilty, as charged, and she was SEN
fenced to serve 80 days in the county
Jail.
Leftenant-colonel Greene, county at
torney in fact and heir apparent to a
district judgeship, may be able to ex-
plain why that abandoned strumpet
and consistent law-breaker has not yet
joined sheriff Magie's gang Of board
ers in the county Jail. Many curious
folk also wonder why the county au-
thorities have not included "Devilish
DAM McCusick and all his helpers in
visitation of law and justice. They
weave not, neither do they spin, but
all Sodom and Gonorrah were not
worse actors than they.
Only the next day after Madam St.
Clair cCusick was found guilty by a
jury of her superiors, one Buda RADIO
sovich, a bold boy from the Balkans,
accompanied by" s"Spike" johnson and
"Pegleg" Anderson, met the driver of
the car used in making the raid on

ugly trio proceeded to give battle to

happened to be a hardened steam
shovel runner, an athlete and a chap
who formerly gave exhibitions in spar

This bad actor Buda runs a Nash car
and, it is alleged, makes a speciality of
toting wet goods to dumps like that of
McCusick at Lucknow. It further is
stated that Bad Buda goes $3.50 on all
profits. He is said to be very partial
to Mildred Lovestead's dusky and

Hon. William A. Cant flatly declares
that he's not been, is not now and will
not be a candidate for congress in the
ensuing campaign. This information
comes directly from Judge Cant, in a
personal note to the editor Of the Rip
saw.
This positive, authoritative an
nouncement will be deep disappoint-
ment to thousands and, to the republi.
can party, it will be a paralyzing blow
in the solar plexus.
Judge Cant undoubtedly is the
strongest man that the republican
party could put up to contest against
Carss or any other candidate that the
opposition may put up. He not only
is great organizer, but has a wide
acquaintance and a most excellent rec.
ord to back him in case of his candi-
dacy.
From time to time, the Great Family
Journal has had scraps of political
gossip, linking Judge Cant's name with
the republican candidacy. This gos.
sip was genuine and published for what
it was worth, purely as straw, indi.
eating the probable direction Of the
political wind. The gossip, too. had
it that Judge Cant's party would draft
him, there being no allegations that he
sought a nomination. .-..-.,--.....-
This gossip also carried the informa.
tion that Judge Cant would resign his
seat on the district bench, if he be-
came candidate, therefore there
never was any idea that he would fail
to follow the highest traditions of the
judiciary. One bit of gossip that gave
weight to the likelihood Of the Can
tian candidacy was to the effect that
the veteran jurist thought seriously Of
retiring from the bench and resuming
private practice.
Judge Cant's note fails to touch on
that point but, if he desires another
term in his present position, it is safe
to say that no Influential voice will be
raised in objection and that no one
qualified for the bench will think of
opposing him.
In taking the Rip-saw into his con-
fidence, Judge Cant states that he has
read the political gossip as to his pos
sible candidacy for congress and that,
on one occasion, he received a marked
copy Of the Rip-saw wherein mention
was made of him in that connection.
The matter is Of such deep, broad and
general interest that, certainly, Judge
Cant will not resent a quotation of the
material part of his note. viz: -:

With William A. Cant standing as
the republican candidate for congress,
political history not only would be
made as to the future, but radically
changed. With Mr.. Cant eliminated
from the probabilities and even possi-
bilities, that same political history will
be seriously affected, as time will tell.
- At the present time, William IL
Carss frankly admits that he wishes
and expects to seek an election. for
second term. To date, there is no
avowed opposition in any direction or
in any party.
Nothing but Mr.. Carss' personal
wishes and negative decision can pre-
vent him from being a candidate for
second term. Just how, when or under
what banner he will file, the Rip-saw
has not been taken into the big con-
gresham confidence and has no idea
that he ever will become that
confidential with the Great Family
Journal. Two years ago, the Rip
saw gave Mr.. Carss loyal, aggres-
sive and unsolicited support. The Rip
saw was the first paper to interview
the big engineer and it was done brief
ly as he stoop by his engine in the
Proctor yards. That interview was
used during the entire campaign by
other papers in the district to show
who and what William L. Carss pro-
fessed to be.
Not another paper in the district
gave Mr.. Carss the whole-hearted sup
port to the extent that the Rip-saw did.
