The Tampa Tribune says of the
attempt to have Mendenhall pardoned
cut of the penitentiary:
1t has been publicly denied that
John j. Mendenhall now serving life
sentence for the murder of Mrs.
Charles Eliot of this city, and still
under Indictment for the murder, at
the same time. of her daughter, Susie
Eliot, will seek, or is seeking a par
don. This public denial came follow
ing the united protect of the women's
clubs of the state after "rumor" got
cut that application would be made
for executive clemency prior to Jan.
1. 1920. When we see what the mere
rumor of applying for a pardon for
Mendenhall has done, what will be
the result in Florida when the appli-
cation for the pardon is published?
The Tribune does not believe there
would be housing accommodations
enough in Tallahassee to take care of
those who would flock to the capital
protesting against the pardoning of
this man, found guilty of the most
cold-blooded spectacular murder of
the elder woman and who still has
hanging over his head in case he
should be pardoned, another charge of
murder, that of the younger woman.
The Tribune kept silent while the
runor was being spread, and later de-
lnied; but now that it is proven Men
denhall is actually working for par
con and is admittedly seeking to over
come the protest of the women of the
state against his release. the Tribune
declares that Mendenhall must not be
released from the punishment of his
crime. "Let justice be tempered with
mercy" will be urged. True; but
there is always to remain, justice.
Justice demanded of Mendenhall his
/ life in expiration of this bloody crime;
mercy stepped in and spared that life
for the very purpose which seems to
have been attained by hina-repen-
lance for his sin; but mercy stops
short of defeating the lawful ends of
justice, and to pardon him would be
to set at defiance justice and to en-
courage hope in criminal breasts that
no matter how dastardly the crime, a
pardon will come upon showing that
the prisoner is repentant

The Miami Herald says: "The Her
aid, during many years past, has been
indefatigable in directing attention TO
the failure of the legislature to obey
the plain mandates of the constitution
to reapportion the representation of
the lower house. 1t has said so much
on the subject that it fears, at times,
that its readers will become weary of
the subject. South Florida needs no
education in the, matter of reappor-
tionment. This section of the state
has been practically disfranchised for
matter of twenty-five years by the
lack of action on the part of the leg
islature. The entire section feels that
II does not have a fair share of the
representation in the legislature. Be
ing the victim of the legislatures per-
sistence in wrong doing, it realizes
the iniquity and is more than willing
10 have it corrected. Ii is to the coun-
ties Of the state that, by the changes
IN population retain the power in the
legislature to which argument and
circumstances should be made. and il
y with the hope that the Herald may,
possibly reach some member of the
legislature from county having an
undue representation, that it fire.
quentiy refers to the subject of reap
porticnment. Sixteen of the northern
counties Of the state have majorities
both IN the senate and the house. I'm
less That majority can be made to see
that 1t is violating the constitution
that It IS working political wrong on
the majority Of the. counties, but with
minority OF the membership of the
legislature. nothing can be done to
remedy the present conditions. by
which far the larger and more pros.
porous portion of the state is kept IN
a sort of bondage to the northern
counties. The present apport;onmen,
is unfair. it is indefensible, It is con.
trary TO the constitution Of the state
and, IN a sense, unlawful The hon
fst legislator, from whatever county
ne may come, ought TO realize the in
justice of the present arrangement
and according to bis oath Of office
ought to take early steps in the leeis

FINE DISPLAY AT THE FAIR

Tuesday afternoon, the Agricultural
Hall was full of people. looking at the
community exhibits. which were in
full flower and drawing unqualified
admiration. The two departments,
one of J. M. Meffert and the other
of Gambler, unfinished the night be-
fore, were well filled. Mr.. Meffert's
exhibit, as usual, was given to show
ing the resources, agricultural and
mineral, of Marion county soil. His
specimens ran to solids-corn, meat,
potatoes and other things that go to
make up the staff of life. Something
that looked like a bundle of sticks was
cassava, which has never been fully
tried out here. tho our soil is well
adapted to it. His lime exhibit was
convincing to the thoughtful, for lime
is one of the great necessities of civ
iIization. The useful and durable al
ways come first with Mr.. Meffert.
The county knows, and many peo-
pie in other counties and in far-off
states know. that Gambler is one of
the blessed spots of the earth and its
exhibit well represents it. Filling this
department was the last pearl on the
community string and made it com
lplete.
The Farmers Union stall made that
admirable organization many friends
for not only did it have a fine exhibit
but pretty young lady, Miss Foxes
served coffee like mother used to
make to all who asked for it. She
also gave smile per cup, which made
the impressionable reporter think the
sugar was superfuous. Miss Foxes is
aided today by her sister-in-law, Mrs
F. G. Foxes. another proof that good
looks run in the Foxes family.

Industrial Exhibits

Going over in the old Machinery
Hall, under the grandstand. we found
its space all taken for the first time
in years. George MacKay & Company
have half the space and the bright and
energetic clerks of the firm were
utilizing it to the best advantage.
Several buggies and farm wagons. all
looking staunch and serviceable, drew
lattention, as they stood by Philip
Murphy's glittering array of autos,
reminding the world that tho the auto
lis mighty fine thing, the sturdy
wagon can go where it can't. There
was also classy showcase filled with

will have to go see, as it would take
a quarter column TO name them. On
the east side, the MacKay Company
had a suite of rooms fitted up out of
their big store with complete house
keeping set. There was a procession
of the hours around the clock-the
kitchen, the dining room, the sitting
room and the bedroom, all furnished
with comfort and elegant simplicity.
Mr.. B. Goldman had a booth, the
principal display in which were q
number of fine talking machines, one
at least of which was going all the
time, the music forming a welcome
addition to the charm of the fair.
