a force of men ar work there, filing in

In this issue of the Star will be
found the statement that Frank Clark
has made with reference to the labor
ing men. He knows he is unfair and
not telling the truth when he makes
such a statement and were it not in
Miami where he feels that it would be
safe to say such a thing he would not
have been allowed to finish his speech.

Quite heavy slam at both the Ia
boring men, and at different places in
the state where Mr.. Clark may wish
to speak, to say he cannot finish his
speech unless it agrees with the ideas
of large element of his audience.
Wen bet there isn't town in Florida
where Frank Clark will be denied a
respectful hearing.
The Star further says: "Clark's at
titude in mixing into it reminds us
more of old man Sidney J. Cats
ramblings than anything we have
heard lately"
Uh huh-and who was it in Lake
land that applauded the "ramblings"
of old man Cats five years ago? And
then turned against him-for why

ASSASSIN OF LINCOLN
WAS NOT HONORED

There has been queer story in the
papers the last few days, to the effect
that a statue of John Wilkes Booth,
assassin of Lincoln, stood in an honor
ed place in the city of Troy, Ala. If
such were the case it would make ev-
cry loyal American, no matter what
state he was born IN, indignant. So
Pelham A. Barrows, national COM
nander Of the Sons of Veterans is not
much to be blamed IL he went off half
cooked and sent letter to President
Harding, asking him to have the of
Tending statue torn down. Comrade
Barrows might, however, have waited
few days and fully informed him
self And it was useless TO write to
the president, for if the people of
Troy had the bad taste to allow one
of their public places to be so desc
Grated it is beyond the power of those
outside their city limits to remove it.
Troy, however, is loyal town-one
where little pools of sectionalism left
from the sixties vanished forever,
under the mighty wave of American
ism that arose IN 1917.
The story of this statue has been
told US by people now living here, but
who know Troy. In the days immed-
lately after our great civil war, when
sectional hatred was yet intense,
one man whose judgment was pervert-
ed with bitterness had statue made
of John Wilkes Booth and offered it to
the city, which even then, in the
scarcely lessening heat of the recent
conflict, had the wisdom to refuse it.
The man took his statue and set it
up elsewhere. It was but a small
figure, and its puny size and obscure
place soon caused it to be forgotten,
or remembered only in a casual way
as the freak of an embittered old
man. Few of those who have lived IN
or visited Troy during the last score
of years knew it was there, and most
of those who saw it didn't know what
| it was.
Those who may have the idea that
the South has or ever had the DISPOSE
ton to erect statues to John Wilkes
Booth should rid themselves of that
opinion Booth was not in the South
ern army, and he made no sacrifice for
the South. His crime was the result
of mixture of egotism and insanity,
/ and his only defense is that he had not
sense enough to know what he was
doing. And we never heard a South
erner pay him any higher compliment
than to call him a fool
And he was a fool, for he struck
down the South's most powerful friend
at the time she needed him most. Our
best and wisest men realized this at
once. It is true that during the war
and for some time after, the South
had the same hatred of Lincoln that
any people will have for the chief of
any other people with whom they are
at war. But it did not take long for
this feeling to pass and for the South
to realize that the nation had lost the
chief of those who were inclined to be
generous and just and who would
doubtless have saved her most of the
humiliations that left far more bitter
ness than can be caused by honorable
warfare.

When Richard Preece, of st. Pc
tersburg, donned the uniform of a
"gob," and went aboard a destroyer
at Camden, n. j., September /, 1918,
as a radio operator, he left his civil
ian clothing in package wrapped for
shipping and telegraphed his parents
in st. Petersburg to send for them.
They did so Immediately and-the
package was received Monday, July
