THE STORY OF OUR STATES.
BY JONATHAN BRACE

The story of New York should
rightly begin with 1924, eighty-five
years before Henry Hudson's voyage
in his little boat, the half moon, up
the river which now bears his name.
For at that early date an Italian
navigator, Verrazano, exploring for
France, sailed into New York Bay.
This first visit to New York made lit
tie stir and was soon forgotten, and it
was Hudson's rediscOvery which
tempted the Dutch to send over col
onists and obtain for the Dutch West
India Company a monopoly of the
Dutch fur trade in America. The
new colony which was started in
1923 called it's territory New Neither
lands, after it's mother country, and
their principal city New Amsterdam.
It is interesting to reject that Man
haitian Island, which is now New
York City, was purchased from the
Indians for $24 worth of beads and
ribbons. Even in its earliest days the
settlement on Manhattan Island was
cosmopolitan. In Il 45 it is reported
that eighteen different languages
were spoken there. In 1884 the Eng
fish captured New Netherlands, and
King Charles II presented the colony
to his brother, the duke of York, who
was later King James II and its name
was then changed to New York.
New York played leading part in
the formation of the United States.
1t was Alexander Hamilton who was
New Yorks representative in franz
ing the Constitution and it was New
York City which was selected as the
first capital of the new Union where
Washington was inaugurated the
first President. Ever since the En-
pire State, as New York is sometimes
called, has held the deciding voice
in Presidential elections. Though its
size is only 49,204 square miles, not
quite half way in the list OF States
according to area, it's great popula-
ton gives New York forty-five pres
idential electors, the largest number
of any of the States.

DIR. HENRY WANTS
A BUSINESS GOVERNMENT

l have not had the opportunity to
take advantage of any extended per-

have no advantages to offer you be-
yond those of my opponent, whom l
esteem both as a man and citizen.
We differ only as to the question
of which is the best course for the
city to pursue. He, l am informed,
stands pat on his past record, and /
am willing to let il lie that way.
Your present council. of which my
opponent is a member, makes an ex-
cellent showing for the electric light
department, and while I have not at
tempted to subject it to very care
ful scrutiny, it would appear, accept
ing it at its face value, to be very
well managed department. Person
ally, | think this result can be readily
accounted for by the fact that they
have at the head of that department
an able and skilIful man who is on the
job at all times.
Now | advocate applying that same
principle to the city as a whole with
the confident expectation that we may
expect to get equally good results
al along the line.
Fellow citizens, the result is in your
hands. The issue is, so far as I am
concerned, clearly defined. A business

IN charge, who can and will give his
whole time to the business of the city.

Or. H w. Henry, Ocala, Fla:
Dear Sir: Our attention is directed
to the report that you are not eligible
as a candidate for councilman from
the first ward in the ensuing election
to be held next Tuesday, due, it is
said, to the fact that you have not
registered in the registration books
for city elections.
We have given careful consideration
to the question. at your request, and
from the facts presented to us, it is
our opinion that your name, having
been presented by petition, as provid-
ed by ordinance. and having been
placed upon the ballot by action of the
council, there is no legal reason why
you are ineligible as candidate, and
no reason why the citizens may not
vote for you at said election.
We are further of the opinion that
if you receiye a majority of votes
cast at said election, it will be the
duty of the council to declare you duly
elected. Yours truly,

FIRE AT EASTLAKE

The residence formerly owner by
Mr.. ]. G. Lege at Woodmar, Eastlake,
was destroyed by fire last night The
house was occupied by Mr.. Helmar
and family of Atlanta, who had only
been occupying the place since Thurs
day night. At the time of the fire Mr..
Helmar and family and nearly all of
the neighbors were attending a meet
ing at the Lake Weir Club at East
lake. The fire had made such head
way by the time help arrived, that
very little of the furniture was saved.
Several cases of shells and cartridges
that were in the house exploded dur
ing the FIRE, giving the effect of bat
tie. The loss was partially covered
by insurance.
