A BIT OF FLORIDA HISTORY

Hard upon the heels of the peace
terms signed at Fort Dade in 1887
| by General Jessup on the part of the
United States, came an influx of i'm
migration. This was the first peace
treaty with the Seminoles and it open
ed the territory from Fort King
(Ocala) to Fort Brooke tTampa) and
settlements sprang up on the red hills
about Fort Dade and the lower
lewis and richer lands about Pasco,
both in the present county of Pasco
AS originally parceled all of this
region was in AIachua county. In
1916 the legislature created Benton
county and with county seat not
now known, it's name being designat-
ed in subsequent act of the same ses-
sion as "Chuckachattee, the exact To-
cation of which has disappeared from
history as we'll as geography, though
Fred Cubberly, an authority on Flor
ida history has stated that he has
seen the town located on at least one
old map of the state and thinks it
was near the present town of Ista-
nando county. though admitting it
may have been near where Brooks
vile is located.
These Indian names, sometimes
with striking similarity, are frequent
ly confused in usage. For instance.
an atlas published in 1882 locates the
town of Chocochattee about five miles
southeast Of Brooksville, which is
near the center of fernando county.
This may be the same town desig-
mated in the act setting up a seat of
justice, the names differing only in
the first syllable This would har-
monize with Mr.. Cubberly's admis-
sion that the original seat of justice
might have been near Brooksville.
AS just stated, fernando county
was originally called Benton county
nOuOI VI SCudLOI.
Thomas H. Benton, whose daughter
Jessie became the wife of John Char
les Fremont, the Pathfinder" A
legislative act passed December "a,
1850, changed the name Benton to
fernando through political jealousy,
it is alleged.
On June 2, 1887, the carving-up pro-
cess began on fernando when Pasco
was taken from it. Citrus county was
also carved from it, as the original
northern boundary as established by
the legislative act was the Withla-
coochee river to its junction with the
Little Withlachoochee, then fallow-
ing the latter stream south to the
present south line of Pasco county

INCREDIBLE, AFTER ALL


There was report last Thursday
that Gov Allen OF Kansas had up
held the Attorney General of his
state in ruling that William Allen
White violated the law in making
public his 49-percent. sympathy with
the striking shopmen The World
commented editorially on the affair.
and there has been no denial of the
incident or the conditions that led to
it.
Nevertheless, it seems only fair to
Kansas and to Gov. Allen to state
that there must have been some mis-
take, that the thing couldn't have hap
pened. 1t might have happened in
Soviet Russia but it couldn't have
happened in Logan County, W. Va.
The expression of 49-per-cent. sympa-
thy with an industrial group could not
be judged illegal or dangerous in any
community of which the government
remains 40 per cent. sane. The gov
ernment of Kansas has always stood
for progressive legislation, even for
radical experiment That it should
without warning favor a form of coer-
cion and censorship more medieval
than the dark ages is utterly beyond
belief
Gov. Allen established the Indus
trial Court. it is true, but when he
was last in New York his converse
tion was fairly rational. at that. Who
will believe that he has gone complete
ly mad and the entire state govern
ment with him ?-World.

RAILROADS PROFITS WERE DOuR-
LED IN PAST YEAR

Operating income, or profit, of the
large railroads has increased almost
100 per cent over last year, it is re-
vealed by reports filed with the In
terstate Commerce Comm ission. This
information becomes public at the
time when hundreds of thousands of
railroad workers have been forced
to strike for living wage.
The reports show that 1876 of the
leading roads in May, 1922, had a net
operating income of s46,967,7OO as
against $29, $4,000 for the same month
last year. This result was achieved
in face Of heavy curtailment of coal
shipments resulting from the miners
strike

roads increased under the same COM
parison one-tenth of per cent, while

trucks pass each other becomes a big
factor, as in the neighborhood of

HARVARD PREPARES l
 FOR TIGERS CAME
Fisher Has Decided on Crimson
 Lineup With One Exception

Cambridge, Nov. 6.--The business of playing football was resumed ear ly today by the Harvard varsity play CTS, and few of the substitutes who spent the weekend at the Myopia Country club, on the north shore, forgetting the gridiron for golf or long walks, The men who will be relied on to get Harvard back in the running against the Tigers this week, and to make up for ties and defeat since the resuming of the series after the war, were thrown together as a unit and will start as such today.
 Fisher has decided on his team with on exception. He is not yet sure that Esky Clark should be started at cen- ter instead of Herman. The latter, who has been playing in the middle of the line for the greater part of the season. is heavier than the veteran srapback and in better shape. Clark, however, is great man to have on tho team, being one of the best Fish, CT has on defense, as well as absolute ly steady in his passing. It may ap- pear best for the morale of the team to start him even if he can't be re- lied on for more than portion of the game; but the final decision will be made Friday.

RULES ARE CHANGED
Intercollegiate Hockey Men Adopt New Rules in Several Instances Dates for Opening Games.

New York, Nov. GA number of important changes in inter- colle giate hockey rules were made public to- day, following the annual fall meet ing of the ice hockey association com posed of eight institutions, Harvard, Yale. Princeton, Cornell Columbia, Pennsylvania. Dartmouth and Hamil- ton. The 1923 schedule among these colleges including IS games, also was announced.
 Prominent among the rule changes adopted was one providing for a 20 yard zone in front of each goal, in- side of which the defending side shall not be penalized for offside play. Others were framed to permit a play CT to put another Ion side by skat- ing ahead of the puck after passing It forward to allow a team to make unlimited substitutidns, and to lengthen the intervals between the first and second and second and third periods from five to ten minutes.
 The schedule includes the following dates: January 20, Harvard at Yale; February 10, Pennsylvania at Yale; February IT, Princeton at Yale.
