"kept" NEWSPAPERS,

Against the evils of a controlled press
the American people must fight, and
fight hard; the penalty of losing the bat

that battle the field artillery and skirm-
ish line, the trench diggers and the ad-
vance guard is the country press
The flame of truth is white hot and
fatal to evil.

nal of a man unafraid OF it's heat; for
tunate the editor who can look his read

The Citrus County Chronicle makes
very serious charge about several Of

should prompt the editor to give COM
plete and specific information as to how
these officials are getting the people S
money and tell who the several are On
the other hand, unless he is willing to
do this he ought to withdraw the
charges for it is a serious reflection
upon the honest ones at Tallahassee,
and upon the entire state.
Editors, above all others, should not

public officials nor private citizens. 1t
does harm and no good whatever, yet
one should speak out in courageous
manner whenever he has information
about public officials doing wrong. Ru-
mors of misconduct, however, are not
sufficient to make charges OF graft.

On Wednesday Judge Eldredge had
a case to settle that was in many ways
as difficult as Solomon's awarding
of the baby to it's rightful mother in
Biblical days. This was the motion
on rule to show cause in the case of
F. w. Tunnel Company VS.. Joseph and
Rebecca Camp. The several inter-
ested parties in the case took the wit
ness stand, including attorneys for
both parties, Mr.. Camp, Mr.. Tunnel
and Ira c. Young, assistant treasurer
of the company. In these hearings
it was learned that the jury in settling
the Ease had passed on an incorrect
sum-, and in going over the case after
hearing both sides Judge Eldredge
stated that in his opinion the techni-
calities were all on Mr.. Camps side,
while the equity was on the side OF
the Tunnel Company. He passed an
opinion on the case granting a salts
factory sum in settlement, or If this
was turned down by Mr.. Camp, order
ing a new trial. The offer was &C
cepted by Mr.. Camp and his attorney.
Floyd Wilson, a II year old colored
youth, charged with larceny in Ocean
City, and picked up last week in New
Haven, Conn, was brought before the
