tionary proposition ever presented
1t is Capitalization run mad" He
also pointed out that it would re.
quire the services of about $4,000
men at cost to the government at
each election of not less than $12,-
100000.
Representative Coleman, republi-
can, of Louisina, opposed the bill as
being "a very expensive political
blunder, and sectional in its opera
ton"
Representative Ewart, of North
Gasoline, a republican, said: 1T is
as damnable, illegal, inequitable and
vicious piece of legislation as was
ever attempted to be placed upon
the statute books Of the country.
1t is a sectional measure designed al
most entirely for the South"
What Did Taylor Say?
Col. Taylor, then in congress,
said: "In the district I represent,
although in the south, fraud and
intimidation in elections are un-
known. Gentlemen on this side Of
the house have shown the fresuency
and enormity of these outrages: :
have shown to what depths of deg
radiation and dishonor our boosted
elective system has been dragged !;
have demonstrated the absolute ne
cessity for this law, and their argo-
ments stand unanswered to this
good hour, and their statements are
unassailed."
His Opinion of the Democratic Party
"But the democratic party, true
to it's history, ever ready to array
tself against all measures Of reform
comes forward in solid pha-
lanx to oppose and attempt to de-
feat this bill which is to pun
ish ballot box thieves, bribe-givers
and bribe-takers.'
ut is not the bill some of US
wanted. Some of us wanted an
even stronger law----but We yield
ed and accepted this bill. 1t may
not accomplish the purposes for
which it is intended, but it can and
will be made stronger and more eff
fective in the future if it fails
now"
"Mr. Speaker, what is the duty Of
the hour? The duty of the hour is
for the representatives of the peo-
pie to invoke by law the strong arm
of the federal power and let it be
welded until every man, black or
white, in every city, town, township,
parish and precinct in every state
shall be as free as the air that floats
and protected in the exercise Of his
franchise. "-(See page 1920, Con-
gressional Record, Fifty-first ses-
sion.)

ALT TAYLOR AND
THE FORCE BILL

If there are any democrats II
Tennessee who are expecting to vote
for Col. ALI Taylor for governor
they should first get acquainted with
his record while serving as mem
Der of congress of 1890, when the
infamous "Force Bill" was up fol
consideration before that body. They
should aquaint themselves with that
gentleman's opinion Of the South
and his votes and acts while mem
Der of the Fifty-first congress.
The federal election bill, common
" known in the South as the "Force
Bill" provided for the elimination
from the officials of the various
states all power to control the cleo
tions held in them. It provided
that chief supervisor of elections
should be appointed for every dis
trict by the judge of the United
States circuit court, and this super
visor should in turn appoint three
supervisors to control the elections
in every precinct of the various
states. That these supervisors
might be able to enforce their de-
1lands, it was provided that they
should have q guard of United
States deputy marshals, unlimited in
number, to stand around the poll
ing places to see that everything
was carried on to suit the whims of
these federal supervisors. These
men also had the power to go into
the homes Of the people prior to the
election days and investigate their
registration, and if foreigners, to
ascertain whether they had been
properly naturalized, etc. When
the polls were ready to count, these
supervisors were empowered to
count the ballots and certify the re-
suits to the chief supervisors, who
in turn would certify to the chief
clerk Of the house of representa-
tives at Washington, who must un-
der penalty Of fine and imprison-
ment, receive the results announced
by such supervisors, and must ig-
more any results certified to by
any governor of any state, which
did not hamornize with certifica-
tiOn Of these supervisors. Its pur-
pose was to intimidate the Southern
voter, and, enable the republican
party by force Of arms to control
the election of the southern repre-
sentatives in congress. It was to
enable them to steal the election of
congressman just as they stole the
electoral vote from Tildon and gave
: to Hayes in that memorable con-
est.

.ress from Tennessee, said it was

terday that Pensacola has the greatest
natural advantages of any city he has
and that many cities would give great
sums to have the parks and vacant
spots Pensacola is preparing to de-
velop.
Plans are being made to develop
Fairgrounds in every part Of the city

months, and it is hoped that the
schools will continue the work in the
fall
There is bill before Congress now
for compulsory physical training, to be
carried out through the schools, and
the Community Service work is, in a
way, preparatory for this.
With the rapid growth Of the play

many people are asking. What will
supervised Fairgrounds accomplish for

Grover c. Thames Of New York, rep

the question in the following way:
1. Fairgrounds Develop Health
By spontaneous outdoor exercise.
2. Initiative-By forcing the child
to make his own decisions.
8. Purity of Mind-By keeping the
child active in wholesome surround

4. Co-operation-By teaching the
child to give and take assistance.

that leadership is the result of success

completed. Il you can conceive that
Florida and Escambia county will al
ways keep a back seat in progressive
agriculture, will always be quarantined
from shipping cattle into other states
and that it will be unsafe to ship bet
ter cattle into this state, then you
might believe that tick eradication
would never be completed in Escambia
county.
True it is that four dipping watts
have been dynamited in this county
Is that any reason why work OF this
kind should stop because OF few law
less people who work under cover OF
darkness? Don't the people OF Es-
Gambia county deplore such acts OF
those who try to tear down? When
the true facts are brought to the tax
payer he will not vote against tick
eradication any more than he would
against compulsory school attendance.
