West and Ellis.


The Tribune has said before that in
the interest of the bench and bar Of
Florida, it was greatly to be hoped
there would be no contest made by
any Florida attorney for the positions
held on the state supreme court bench
by, Justices Thomas F. West and w. H.
Ellis. In fact, we would like to see
the justices of the state supreme court
appointed for life, or during good be-
havior, as are the justices of the
United States supreme court. We be-
lieve that time will eventually come
after the value of taking the judges
of this court out Of politics and paying
them more salary, has been recognized.
No opposition developed to Mr.. Jus
tice Ellis; there is one attorney from
West Florida announced in the group
with Mr.. Justice West. The Florida
State Supreme Court is magnificently
composed. In it there are men famed
nationally for their broadness of in
tellect and their learning, men who
are known to be students at the inner
temple of justice, men who are of the
school of those who hew to the line,
letting the chips fall where they will,
and those who temper justice with mer-
cy. All of them are jurists of note,
and men of irreproachable character.
This is no time to change the per-
sonnet of our courts. 1t is a pity that
even our lower courts have to see a
change of presiding magistrate and
judge every year or two. What the
state needs today is one branch OF its
government that is absolutely above
and without the touch of the political
hand Of any man or party or class.
We trust the people will well and
seriously consider before they think of
changing the personnel of the supreme
court for even the greatest lawyers the
state has at its brilliant bar.-Tampa
Tribune.

Hastine. Potato Crop.

Beginning Monday. extensive har-
vesting of the Florida potato crop will
begin. At least 10000 laborers can be
utilized in the task Of digging and
preparing the spuds for shipment in
the Hastings and Bunnell districts
alone. This will give the people of
Florida an idea of the enormity and
value Of the potato crop of the state.

HUXLEY Should Follow Suit.

John w. Watson has withdrawn from
the race for governor, and, while we
have always been a friend and adj
mirer of Mr.. Watson, we believe his
action to be the wisest course he could
pursue and a patriotic act as concerns
the welfare of the state. Mr.. Watson
is a man in every way fitted to be
governor Of Florida, but conditions at
this time are such that he could not
win, and his withdrawal strengthens
the candidacy of Cary Hardee, who is
the logical man for governor, and
whose prospects for election grow
brighter every day. If DR.. Hulley were
not blinded to the true situation by
his personal ambition, he would follow
Mr.. Watson's example and the battle
could be fought to a finish between the
two candidates who are the leaders of
two well defined elements in the state.

nounces his withdrawal from the gu

of the sound, sane men asking for the
honor of helping to redeem the good

withdrawal means the election of Cary
A. Hardee, without doubt. Mr. Har6lee
represents the unbroken conservative
element of Florida, as against a di-
vided radicalism being contended for
by Swearingen and Hulley. DIR. HUI

gen in an attempt to have Hardee dis
qualified through some charge of al
legged exceeding the cost Of election

tice act. This act on his part having
completely aligned him with the
Swearingen sympathies and line of
thought, must of necessity, result in
giving him good percentage of the

materially Strengthening himself. Those
who cast vote for Swearingen will in
all likelihood vote second choice" for
Hulley, and vice versa. There is no
chance fer Hu1ley to be second" high
man, so whatever second choice vote
he gets from Swearingen voters, Swear
ingen. being second high man, can do
him no possible good. 1t is evident
that no Hardee man is going to cast
a second choice for Swearingen, SO he
has no chance to win, even with Wat

For No-Fence Law.
A letter from Chas II. Brown IN THIS
issue calls attention to the fact tnat
all the range cattle Of Pinellas county
are assessed for taxation at sum less
than $4,000. The owners pay taxes on
these cattle probably $275 year. II
Is safe to say that they destroy ~
times this sum every year, by over
running gardens and groves and cause
the owners of PinelIas county property
to spend at least 40 times this amount
in fencing against them. In other
words the $275 in revenue which the
county derives from cattle costs the
property owners of the county $4,000.

The enrolment OF the Ford Motor

5000 mark. There are four courses
available to Ford men: The English
course. trade school, service course and

of the workmen who show their desire
to advance and takes boys under 16
whose parents can no longer send them
to school and gives them a combina-
ton of general schooling and tool

boy shows liking. This latter part
of the school is known as the Henry
Ford Trade school and Is regularly in
corporated under the Michigan laws as

$4oo SCHOLARSHIPS
On entering this school the boys are
granted an annual scholarship Of $500,

Why travellers weep"
So wrote Mrs. w. L. Thompson after
Z 2600-mile trip with her family in
October through Idaho, Montana and
Utah. They were unlucky enough to
run into the first snowstorm of the
year, and 1t dampened their idea of
both neighboring states for fall tour
ing.
The trip was made in an Oakland,
just for the fun Of 1t and to visit rela-
tives in the southeastern part of the
state. They found dust hub deep be
tween Pocatello and Lima, Mont, and
the next morning had eight inches of
snow. Returning they came through
Beaver canyon in a blizzard On the
next leg of the journey. from Pocatello
to Ogden, they encountered more snow,
and were showed in for the night at
Cache junction. Old residenters told
them when they tried to go on that
they could not plow through the snow
to the summit but with two other
cars of tourists they went on and
finally reached Ogden. The storm Kept
up with them until tney Haue SAT-
Lake. Afterward, in southern Utah,
they found ideal Indian summer.
GOOD IDAHO COUNTRY
Regarding the travelling on the re-
turn trip Mrs. Thompson says in her
letter to the Sharman Automobile COM
pany:
I'VE left Ogden Nov. for home,
feeling sure that after leaving Poca-
tello we would find the weather set
tied and have good journey home.
We did. Were Joined at Pocatello by
a nephew from Montana AS we jour-
neyed along, homeward bound, he was
enthused to see what wonderful coun-
try we went through.
Thirteen years ago when Mr..
Thompson was in Twin Falls he could

town for a mere song. He passed it
UP as a poor investment and now has
found it a second Chicago.
Another beautiful place was the

Jack London's Valley of the Moon.
From Bliss on we found some bad
roads as the result of the storms, but
had no mishaps.
I'VE had been gone a month when
we got back Nov. IL. In this time over

Because Of the general demand for

the course just as brief as Is consistent
with the. turning out of expert repair
men. 1t is said that the average man
can complete the course in a month.
Some. however, require longer training.
None is given a diploma until his work

ARMY SCHOOL A. SUCCESS
In explaining the reason for the
school, +. c. Millhoff, general sales
manager of the Miller Rubber COM
pany says: Retail tire competition
has become so keen and the trade so
infested with inexperienced repair men
that we felt 1t behooved us to under
take something that would build up
the repairing branch of the business.
During the war, at the request of
the government, we operated tire re-
pair school for soldiers who had en-
listed for certain branches Of the
transport srevice. They were trained
by us before going into active service
and the feasibility Of the system was
so apparent that we decided to estab-
4 lish u similar school for civilians just
as soon as we could obtain the neces-
sary space and equipment. The pro-
Ject has proved even more successful
than we anticipated. Next year we ex-
and there will be a matter of pride
for us in that we will have Miller train
