sRYAN,s CANDIDACY.

A new angle in state politics in con-
nection with the mention of William
Jennings Bryan for the United States
senate, is the circulation of petitions
to bring sufficient pressure TO bear TO
persuade Mr.. Bryan to enter the race.
One OF the many reasons given by
those who are advocating Mr. Bryan's
candidacy, is the very fact that Mr..
Bryan's enemies are pointing out to his
discredit that he is not a Floridian by
birth, but by adoption.
Those who are urging that Mr.. Bryan
enter the race, are calling attention to
the fact that the great mass of Florida
people whom Mr.. Bryan would repre-
sent are not native-born. Florida is
largely made up of people from other
states who came first in search of
kealth. or for recreation, and remained
! BECAUSE they found here opportunities
Of one sort or another which appealed
to them.
For a number of years now Florida
has been making a direct appeal to
people making their homes in the west
or the east to come south and help
build up the country. And the people
each year are responding in ever in
creasing numbers.
Men from every section of the
United States have come to Florida to
make their home, making large invest
ments and developments.
When Mr.. Bryan decided to make his
permanent home in this state, he said
that he owned more real estate in Flor
ida than in Nebraska. He has spent
great part of the season here for many
years, and has many friends in the
state, where he has long been recog-
nized as one of its leading citizens.
Those who know Mr.. Bryan person
ally, as we'll as those who admire his
public career, must feel that any at
tack upon his candidacy on the ground
that he is not Floridian is farcical, in
view of the fact that the people he
would represent are not any more
Floridians than he, in the mass, as so
great a percentage of those who have
come to Florida to make their homes
are native to other states.
In the case of Mr.. Bryan, the office
seeks the man, not the man the office.
That he would serve Florida with great
distinction, no one can doubt, how
ever prejudiced. That he will consent
to serve is not yet at all certain.
But in the event that Bryan should
enter the race. certainly the fact that
he is not native born should in nowise
enter into the campaign, inasmuch as
those whom he is to represent are in
exactly the same position.
More and more is Florida being ad-
vertised as the Mecca of the home
seeker and investor, but if it is true
that man who has made his home in
this state for many years, and one who
has large investments here, a man who
stands for the best in civic life, is to
be considered an outsider, where is
the inducement to people of other
states to cast in their lot with Florida?

port on the Atlantic AS a matter OF
fact, they are mostly imaginary, but
whether ina ginary or not, they do not
prevent boats from coming 10 Mon
treal, and If they do not prevent boats
from coming to Montreal how are they
going TO interfere with boats above
Montreal?
That argument is not even respecta-
bile. It isn't even as good an argument
as the one that the moon is made OF
green cheese, because nobody has &C
tually been to the moon to see, but
people have been up and down the St.
Lawrance and they know that the diff
ficulties which are raised do not hin
der commerce in the st. Lawrence at
all and won't hinder ocean boats COM
ing up the lakes. All the rest Of these
foolish objections are Of no more i'm
portance.
Why am I writing this? to ask you
to print It? No, 1 have never yet asked
any newspaper to print anything. I
don't expect TO. There is only one thing
that I have asked or ever viii, and that
is that you consider this matter for
yourself consider ii upon its merits,
decide upon it's merits. il is OF enough
public interest. in your opinion, to give
it the better part Of two columns OF
your space. I submit it is of sufficient
interest, therefore, to warrant you in
considering the evidence. Every ques
tion that has been raised has been dis
posed OF, every doubt that has been
cast upon this has been resolved. The
objection TO spending millions upon
millions in a foreign country may he
answered by saying that nothing OF the
sort is proposed. This project should
be, and no doubt will be, self sustain
ing and elf-financing. We have rights
in the st. Lawrence, rights which were
contended by two great Americans,
Adams, of Massachusetts, and Clay, Of
Kentucky, rights which were confirm
ed TO us in the treaty Of 1871 under
the presidency Of Grant. We have
rights in the St. Lawrence which we
mean to maintain mad which we pro-
pose TO exercise.
Eighteen states, sir, ask you TO con-
slider this proposition on its merits.
And who asked you 20 attack It? do
not know the gentleman, but recog-
nize his arguments. They were spawn
ed in New York. Has New York al
ways been so fair. so pure, so disinter-
ested, that every statement coming
from there may be accepted at face
value? And do you put statement
originating in New York and thus
sponsored, above the word OF the In
ternationaI Joint Commission upon de-
Lucrative consideration of the facts,
above the president Of the United
States. above the wish and long held
purpose OF these eighteen states?
We ask Of you or Of any other man
but one thing, that you consider this
matter fairly and reach your conclu-
sion upon it's merits We know the
south. we know its chivairy. its love Of
justice, and we are content to leave 1t
with you.
Very respectfully.

per cent grade which is 1000 feet long.
The curves encountered by these cars
vary from less than one degree to a
curve with only a forty five foot ra-
dus.
When the first snow of the winter
arrived at Manhattan citizens We're
doubtful as to the ability of the cars
to operate in the snow without the use
of snow pillow, as had been the Gus
tom with the lectric cars. But all
doubt was cleared away when the
trucks, with little difficulty plowed
through the deep snow, which was
drifted in places to a depth of two feet.
With the load equally distributed
over the four wheels and with every
wheel a driving wheel these FWD
trucks obtain a maximum amount Of
traction which makes them particu-
Iarly well adapted to service over steep
grades, around sharp curves and over
snow covered rails such as they en-
counter in the service on the Manhat-
tan lines.
Regarding the service given by their
motor equipment and the cost of OPP
Grating 1t, company officials state that
the installation is a great success
They also state that not one complaint
about the service with the new equip
ment has been received, which speaks
pretty well of the patrons satisfaction
and which goes to prove that service
is the secret Of universal satisfaction.

CINCINNATI IS FACING
 SHORTAGE OF LABORERS

CINCINNATI, O., July 24.-For the first time in months Cincinnati really is facing shortage of skilled labor. The tremendous building pro- gramme which has been launched here is responsible for this unusual condition, builders declare, pointing out that the big projects to be con- summated here this summer involve an aggregate investment of about $3O,O0O,0O0.
 The most urgent need is for brick layers and plasterers, the contract ors say. Unemployment among men skilled in building trades practically has disappeared here as a result Of the building boom, while men of other trades are. filling in where eX- perts cannot be obtained.

taining hundreds of clauses and every deatil of military alliance" between the two powers in case they would be attacked by Poland or Soviet Russia.
 Years before Anspach turned to politics" he used to forge certificates and university honors of degrees, en- abling purchasers to attend lectures or settle down as teachers or doc tors. He asserts that the honorary degree of a doctor was bestowed on him by the Bolshevist University of Kasan through the Russia ex-pleni- potentiary Vigor Kopp at Berlin, and that the German Minister of Educa- tion granted him a permit to carry this title in Germany.
 The career of Eric Anspach is . rOmance in itself '-'' -.@'

While being nursed al a hospital he wrote numerous artl- cles which happened to become known to the Minister of Education, who. Oh reading them, granted Ans bach a special permit to attend lec- tpres at the university.
 After the war Anspach tried to make his living writing for news papers and for short time, belonged to the staff of the Independents paper "Freiheit," when he was ar rested and sent to prison for dis tributing pamphlets urging the masses to overthrow the present government. He was sent to luna tic asylum for short time, but the doctors could not detect any abnor- maliy of mind. On the contrary they stated that he was an eminen- ly gifted person, his hobby being mathematics and his style perfect in every respect.

BERLIN, July 24. - With the ar rest here of Erich Anspach, twenty four, king of spies," Germany's en toying a new sensation.
 By means of poet-like imagina- tion, Anspach forged hundreds of secret documents of German gov- ernment officials and sold them to French Secret Service agents-just or simple love of forgery.
 "They fell for the game like a brick he says. "They even wanted the bunk handed them to be .juicier,' so that it would serve their purposes better. felt my vanity flattered by prominent persons and Government agents applying to me for information and enjoyed 1t inn mensely when l observed the result of my work. l had caused q tension between governments" .. e."

The names had eeea taken from the telephone directoriea He also offered and &as paid for "con- tidential decrees of the Minister of Defense" including mobilization plans and long lists of officers who were unofficially registered in se- cret documents of the German army.
 He invented dramatic story about the secret organizations of German students and their connection with the Erzberger murder, asserting that all those liable for military service would form special units in case of a new war against France. Details were given by him about the activity of secret recruiting officers for the purpose of keeping ready former of ficers of the Flying Corps and sup plying them with machines for a surprise attack on the French occu- patton army in case the French should advance further into Ger many.

EDITED MANY DOCUMENTS

But Anspach did not content him. self with giving information of mili- tary character, but also edited vol luminous documents on economic conditions, as on the German export and import where it was indicated that the German Government pur- posely concealed the truth about conditions in Germany in order to make efficient propaganda against the Versailles treaty and the repara- tion demands.
 He fabricated statistics about the alleged unemployment in Germany and supplied the real figures, assert ing that the Government only wanted to evade heavier taxation. The Polish Government availed itself of Ans pach's statistics on the rolling stock of the German railways and the out put of the German coal mines after the plebiscite in Upper Silesia.
 He cleverly forged the stamps of the Government offices and the sig natures of well-known ministers and backed up his stories by some real facts taken from pamphlets and books on one or the other subject so that nobody ever suspected them of being lalse. Day and night he sat over books and papers which he took from the circulating libraries of Berlin.
 Anspach entertained connections with Paris, Brussels, Basic, Warsaw, Mainz, Wiesbaden and Brealau. In order to make his clients" absolute ly sure that his information came from authentic sources he pretended to be a "councillor of the Ministry of Economies" only giving his in formation on condition that it was returned within a day. as otherwise "he would get into trouble.'
 PIONEERS" WITH EBERT The crowning achievement of his frauds is "confidential talk of Ebert, Wirth and .Rathenau" prior to the conference at Genoa, in which it was asserted that the three states men had discussed details of a plan to sabotage the work of the Allies. At the same time he sold to sdne government Secret Treaty Between Finland and Czecho-S -Slovakia," con-
