THE ANSWER
OF MIR. HAYS

The gauge of battle is down. The
Republicans now stand ready to
accept whatever battlefield their
Democratic opponents may choose for
the coming campaign. That is the
gist of the speech of Chairman Will
H. Hays of the Republican national
committee Saturday before a meeting
of state workers in Maine. when
the Democrats concentrated on the
league covenant without the dotting
of an Il or the crossing of a t. We
met them squarely. When through
their national chairman, fresh from
a conference with their candidate,
pronounced the covenant only a sec
ondary issue, we acquiesced. When
their candidates reversed their ma
tional chairman and declared the Will
o league the sole issue, we ac-
cepted most readily"
The choice of an issue is up to the
new leader of the Democratic party,
says Mr.. Hays. at matters not to
us. Our sole requirement is that
there shall be no restrictions. This
referendum is going to be more than
solemn. 1t is going to be great. the
most comprehensive ever known. Be-
fore it is ended, it will have compro-
missed every phase of maladministra-
ton and every fleck of Wilsonitis that
have brought untold miseries upon a
people who have every right to be
prosperous and contented."
Turning later to the charges of
the Democratic candidates that the
Republican campaign fund would
reach an immense sum and that GER
tain interests were banded together
to buy the presidency for the Republi-
cans, Hays continues: "They thus
deliberately accused Mr.. Harding
your national committee and myself
of being engaged in a conspiracy to
b tray u country. That, | submit.
is a serious charge. If it could be
s~ubstantiated. nc punishment of those
found guilty could be too evere. 1t
cannot be. of course. for the simple
reason that it is not true" The
speech goes on to give the plan of
the Republican committee to raise the
necessary money for the campaign by
subscriptions of less than $1,000. and
refrains from criticism of the Demo-
Gratis in accepting as large contribu-
tons as were offered for the carrying
ON of their campaign. 1t is an ad-
mirable statement of the stand of
the two parties on this question and
is a full, candid and sincere answer
to the unfounded charges of the
Democratic nominees.
~Reasserting the readiness of the
Republicans to meet the Democrats
on any issue they may choose in the
campaign, Mr.. Hays gives flair warm
ing that neither the Republican can
didates nor the Republican manage
ment will take false aspersions lying
down. If at the instance of our ad-
versaries this campaign shall finally
resolve itself into a question of per-
sonal characters, we know of no rea-
son, aside from natural distaste, why
we should not meet that issue as
readily as any other. With Warren
G. Harding and Calvin Coolidge as
our candidates, all we ask is a fair
contest; and that we propose to
have"

EDINBURGH

Scotland, with is picturesque people,
its quaint villages and wonderful old
castles. has been the mecca of tour
lists for many years. During the past
two years Edinburgh, Dunfermline,
Glasgow and other cities of Scotland
have seen much of the men of the
United States navy.
Coming in from the sea to the port
of Rosyth. U. S. men-of-war pass May
Island, a barren piece of rock and
earth towering like giant sentinel,
guarding the entrance to the bay and
the humans within. On each side Of
the channel, mountains of slate
colcred rock rise up obscuring all but
the heavens overhead. Far ahead can
be seen the Firth of Forth bridge,
one of the largest in the world, and
beyond in the mist, the towers of
Edinburgh Castle. Here it was that
the German fleet met the outposts of
the American and British fleets and
forever rescinded its vainglorious
challenge for the naval supremacy of
the world. No setting could be more
fitting for the final act in the great
drama of a navy that lost its soul.
American sailormen have been i'm
pressed with the courteous treatment
accorded them by the people Of this
rugged country. Whenever an Amer
lean warship is in the bay at Rosyth
ths citizens of Edinburgh act as hosts
to the bluejackets and the city takes
on gala attire in honor Of It's Ameri-
OF Scotland, is an important center Of
learning, and is distinguished for the
number and excellence of its literary
scientific and educational institutions

WHO IS MR.. GARRISON?

The following from the Times
Union is worth the close attention Of
the taxpayers:
A few days ago the Times-Union
published what purports to be an
interview with J. P. Clarkson of Tai
lShassee on the question of bonding
the state for twenty million dollars
for the purpose of building roads.
When we use the word "purported"
in connection with this interview we
are actuated by a spirit Of revenge
for Mr.. Clarkson's insinuations in
referring to a letter incorporated in
All editorial in the Times Union as
"purporting to be from a former resi-
dent of the state" We stated that
it was from former resident of the
state and do not see why Mr. Clark
son should have doubted the truthful
ness of the statement.
We gave Mr.. Clarkson more space
than we are willing to take at one
time so we will probably refer to his
interview again. Today we discuss a
feature of it on which latter day pol
itics places a great value. Who IS
Mr.. Clarkson?
Now if you are settling yourself
down comfortably in the pleasurable
anticipation that you are going to see
Mr.. Clarkson ripped up the back and
otherwise roughly handled you will
be disappointed for Mr.. Clarkson is
an estimable gentleman and as highly
esteemed by the Times-Union as any
man in Florida. When Mr.. Clarkson
was in the newspaper game he was
one of the best newspaper men in the
state. He is a man of very great
ability and very fine character but
this is not telling the interesting
thing about him. He reformed from
the newspaper game several years
ago and became a state official and
his service to the state was as faith
full and capable as his service of
newspapers had been. But he isn't a
state official any longer. We do not
know just what to call him but he is
in charge of the propaganda that is
designed to put over this issue CT
bonds. We mention this to let the
people of the state know that there
are men behind this movement who
are ready to spend lot of money to
put it through and they have COM
menced by outbidding the state of
Florida for the services of one Of its
best officials We do not charge that
Mr.. Clarkson is trying to put thing
over that he thinks would injure the
state. We do not believe there Is
enough money to hire him to do that.
He believes in what he is doing and
the men behind him-or at least many
of them-probably believe in it. But
if this bond issue is authorized the
people of Florida will have to provide
money for its payment and it is not
amiss for them to know that the pro-
raganda behind the movement is we'll
financed.
The debt will be placed on the
shoulders of the people of Florida and
the means of meeting it would after
wards be decided on. We will refer
to Mr.. Clarkson's figures later, tho
they are based on an uncertainty.

lend dignity which enhances the
beauty of this garden city.
1t is within easy reach of Rosyth
by rail and special trains are always
available for the sailorman. The city
is divided into the old and new town,
the former occupying the middle and
highest of three ridges extending
east and west. Castle Hill, Old Town,
is more than a mile long, and rises
with a regular but rather steep ac-
clivity from the palace of Holyrood,
which is at the eastern end, to the
huge rock on which stands Edin-
burgh Castle almost five hundred
feet above the level of the sea. From
Princess street. the business thoro-
fare, a wonderful view can be had of
the castle and the surrounding hills.
The street is lined with houses and
shops along the northern side, beau
tiful park being on the southern side.
Edinburgh Castle, which will be re-
membered as the scene of many of the
escapades of Mary. Queen of Scots,
IS always particularly interesting to
the sailorman. Scotch lassies act as
guides and the tales of old world
romance are doubly interesting when
tod by these escorts. st. Giles Ca
tiedral, one of the wonder churches
Of the world, always holds a special
service for the men of the fleet. The
services have always been well at
tended and the vicar never tires of
telling of the time it was necessary
for him to hold two services in order
to accommodate the American sailors
After one has visited these inter
esting monuments of Scottish history
he can more readily understand why
so many novels and so much poetry
has been written about the hills and
Gales of Scotland.
