The Lakeland Telegram expresses
what should be the white mans jus
tice when it says: 'If Jack Tigertail.
one of the Seminole chiefs residing in
the Everglades, has been murdered
i'm cold blood by white man on the
outskirts of Miami, the state and fed
eral authorities should lose no time
in experimenting the murderer. We
owe it as special duty to protect the
lives of the few remaining members
of the Seminole tribe. The killing OF
an unoffending Indian is crime
against the people of the United
States let alone a terrible breach OF
the moral code and it calls for heroic
action ON the part of those charged
with the administration of the law
who should see to it that the guilty
person or persons be brought to jus
tice."

A conference will be held at Ocala,
next Monday, to prepare plans for a
convention composed of South Florida
counties, with a view to getting united
action by the southern portion of the
state ip capital removal. 1t is ex-
tremely doubtful whether the people
of South Florida are unit on the
question or whether they will con-
slider themselves bound to support
any movement recommended by the
Forthcoming convention.-Miami Her

No sensible person, friend Herald,
expects the people of South Florida
or any six or seven hundred thousand
people, to be unit on capital removal
or anything else. There is not anly
valid reason, however, why they
should not be allowed to express their
opinions on capital removal, or any
other public matter.

One of our well-posted public men
saws that South Florida is being bum
coed in its support of Judge c. b.
Parkhill for governor, for the judge,
tho South Florida man, has so many
interests in North and West Florida
that he would be certain to oppose
and most likely block capital removal.

iudge might as we'll kiss his hopes OF
the governorship goodbye. However

man and will do the square thing. Al
