justice agents in Warsaw, because he
said he knew who was responsible for
the Wall Street explosion in 1921, but
who was later released. has been brought
back to this country, it was learned to-

The exact time Of his arrival. how he
was brought here and his present where

Officials admitted he came in recent

the explosion worked with Lindenfeld

"Satsumaland," the natural habitat
the homeland of that exquisitely delicious
and marvelously prolific Nipponese citrus
fruit, the Satsuma Orange, is a land
where money grows on trees"-where it
has been doing so for several years;
where it is doing so today and will con-
tinue to do so in the future, until every
hillside in Satsumaland is aglow with
golden fruit upon tens of thousand Of
Satsuma trees which will come into bear
ing within the coming three years.
Nor is Satsumaland a mythical name
of my coinage.
Instead, 1t Is a name which has been
bestowed upon that wonderland Of fer
tility and productivity in West Florida,
which lies between the Perdido and
Apalachicola rivers, by an organization
of serious-m minded hard-headed, progress
sive business men who have created into
being the West Florida Fruit Growers
Association, with w. L. Wilson, of Pan
ANA City, as president; Hon. J d. Smith,
of Mariana, as vice president and W. A.
Sessions, of Bombay as secretary treas
urea cooperative marketing and buying
organization which is already in operation
in those counties of Satsumaland lying
between the Chactowhatchie and Apala-
chicola rivers.
And to avoid it's counterfeit by some
less favored locality for the culture Of the
Satsuma Orange, "Satsumland" has been
copyrighted as a distinctive trade term
to be employed in the marketing of all OF
the Satsuma Oranges produced with in
the borders of Satsumaland.
The successful and profitable produc-
ton of the Satsuma Orange is no longer
an experiment in West Florida; it is an
industry now which has reached the dig
nifty Of position in West Fiorida's eco
nomic life as secure and dependable as
the production of corn in Iowa or of wheat
in Minnesota or the Dakotas has been
these many years, and within the coming
decade the golden flow into this section
from the industry is going to be reckoned
in millions of dollars.

Why Not q Satsun1G ShOD
In Pensacola Next Year?

Pensacola is the metropolis Of this Won
derful Satsumaland. And If Pensacola
should direct her best organized efforts
to avoiding the lions share of the pen
eft which is to accrue from the develop
ment of Satsumaland. Shed be impotent
in the matter.
And yet Pensacola hasn't done half OF
what Satsumaland has every right to ex-
pect Of her.
But there's lots to be done yet, and IT
isn't too late for Pensacola to make up
within the brief span Of year. what she
has neglected doing these years tnat
Satsumaland has been in process OF de-
velopment.
And the point at which Pensacola
should start in it's active cooperation, is
the organization of a movement right
now-not next month, but next week
for a Satsuma Orange show to be held
throughout the first week in November,
1928.
Nor should Pensacola expect or ask
a dime of support from any other com
munity in Satsumaland to put over this
show-not in a puny, haf-hearted way;
but in liberal and big way.
While we who are familiar with the
qualities of the Satsuma Orange know
that it is a wonderful and delicious fruit
there are millions Of people from end to
end of the country who have never heard
Of the fruit, to say nothing OF never haV-
ing eaten it. Therefore, before a full
realization of the dreams Of our Satsunna-
land are fully accomplished, we must &C
quaint the world with the wares which
wen have to sell. -
This will have to be accomplished
through liberal and judiciously directed
publicity.
And how could this publicity be more
effectively inaugurated and subsequently
sustained, than through an annual Sat
suma Orange show to be held in the
metropolis of Satsumaland. at the very
height Of the Satsuma Observation-Disclosures
the first week in November OF next year
and Of the years to come?

'1dH Named As Witness In
Daugherty Impeachment Move
(By Associated Press

WASHINGTON, Dec. l.
Chief Justice Taft was named
today in a statement to the
house judiciary committee by
Representative Keller, Republi-
can, Minnesota, as a witness to
be called in support of his de-
mand for the impeachment of
Attorney General Daugherty.
Mr.. Keller wrote, in connection with his
charge, formally filed. that Attorney
General Daugherty has appointed ''un-
trustworthy, corrupt and dangerous men,
to high office, knowing at the time that
they were men of such character.
Geo. w. Wickersham, former attorney
general; Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Labor, and
Guy Oyster, Mr.. Gompers' secretary, also
were mentioned by Mr.. Keller as other
witnesses he would ask the committee 10
summon as to this particular allegation.
Regarding the committe request that
he give the names of all persons who
could testify as to any further charges
on which he based a demand for i'm
peachment. Mr.. Keller wrote that he
would not comply except in certain par
ticulars, as he and his advisors regarded
as safe.
Grounds for impeachment.
Setting for the grounds for impeach-
ment, Mr.. Keller alleged that Mr. Daugh-
erty had practiced fraud and deceit on
Mr.. Taft while president to obtain the
release from prison of Charles w. Morse
and that on Mr.. Morse's failure to pay
Daugherty's associates in the pardon pro-
cedings a great fee he ''prostitued'' the
office of attorney general for personal
revenge" by securing an indictment of
Morse.
In his letter to Chairman Volstead OF
the judiciary committee. Mr.. Keller said
the specifications he inclosed, set out
and "I am prepared to prove that the said
Daugherty is guilty of serious miscon-
duct in office, highly prejudicial TO the
public interest. of grave abuse of his
discretionary powers, of wilful and re-
peated violations of his oath ~ office
and of high crimes and misdemeanors''
in IA particulars. each one of which is
supported by numerous instances.
''If any of these "A secifications against
the said Harry NJ. Daugherty can be said
to be more important than any other
said Mr.. Keller, "it is that group of
specifications that relates to the refusal
and neglect of the said Harry NJ. Daugh-
erty to enforce the antitrust laws Of the
United States of America"

Licked, Says Andy

Col. Andrew Gump. the candidate
Tor congress, who stood 100 per cent
Tor the people and who wears no
mans collar, is out but he isn't down.
The recount has been completed
ana the colonel lost to Sylvester
Sklnk, whose henchmen, backed by
powerful political clique, were too
much for Independent Candidate
Gump.
The final fatal figures showed
Andy had been defeated by 81 votes
And Andy is convinced that they
were his own votes. They were cast
Tor him originally. But the colonePs
enemies had more cards under the
table than Andy had on it.
The turkey was on the table and
the cranberries We're cleaning redly
in the glass bowl when the bitter
blow-the news that he had lost
was received by Andy. The carving
knife was in the would-be congress-
mans hand, and Min had just told
little Chester to be quiet.
Then came the tragic telegram
taking all the Thanksgiving cheer
out of the Gumps' hearts.
Andy was dazed. He was stunned
by the staggering blow. But Andy
Gump is not the man to grieve over
split milk.
He still has Min, his loyal little
pug-nosed wife. He still has little
Chester, who inherited his features
from his mother and his brains from
Andrew. He still has Uncle BIN,
who has to charter a mono var TO
guard his spare change when he sails
from Australia to visit his beloved
nephew.
Andrew Gump is no gutter. He is
going to carry on.
