REPUBLICANS, ALSO,
LACKED SOMETHING

Republicans had what might be
termed hard sleddin'" in all sections
of Florida on Tuesday, hardly MAX
ing a showing. Assertions were made
early in the year, long before the prI-
mray, and the remarks were made
by the democratic press, that tine
democrats have no organization
and in many counties have not even
one committeeman" While this was
true it must be admitted that success
crowned all their efforts; and 1t IS
presumable, if the vote cast for them
is to be taken as a criterion, haa
there been a strong organization
there would have been so large ma
iorities cast for the nominees of that
party that it would have been neces-
sary for the returning boards to have
gone outside the three-mile limit to
have found room to "figger up"

TOO MANY POSE
AS MERE ECHOES

"An echo is the throwing back Of
a sound wave"
There is always to be found an
overplus of echoes in every commu-
nifty; too many who will never ven
ture an opinion until the great ma
iority has set a stamp Of approval
or condemnation upon a subject. Then
tn eecho gets off the fence-and
echoes. That is all it amounts to.
Such men are Of little use to them
selves or to the community. They
are neither constructive nor destrHc-
tive. They are merely the throwers
back of sound waves. They receive
neither praise from their friends nor
censure from their enemies. Good
fellows" they are, always; when
that is said nothing remains to be
uttered.
AS it is with men so is it with
counties, cities, newspaper. The
echo" is not a success in any Of
these. The county that remains pas
sive until all those about have push
ed forward to the high mark set is
not a success. The city that dares
not step a bit in advance Of what
conditions seem to justify does not

Gated by The Palatka News, provid-
ed the deal shall be closed at an ear
Nv date. The offer made public by
the publishers Of the two papers nam
ed above, John H. Perry and Richard
Lloyd Jones, is to the effect that if
the state will appropriate one million
dollars to give publicity to all sec
tons of Florida they will personally
contribute additional publicity to the
extent of one hundred thousand dol
lars. There is a stipulation of those
making the proffer that the million
dollars worth Of propaganda sent
forth must pass through the hands
of an advertising firm specially
mentioned by them.
In order to be in the rear of no
great movement to secure for the
state proper publicity The News will
give the same amount of publicity
upon the same terms, with the excep-
ton. that the Palatka publishers shall
be free to use the columns of The
News, and will not insist as to how
the main fund of one million dollars
shall be placed. The stipulation that
the columns of The News shall be
used to the extent deemed proper is
made upon the grounds that if this
publication is not of sufficient impor-
lance to carry state propaganda it
lis not worthy of carrying publicity
for anyone; and by making this slight
change in the, primary offer The
News feels that it has slipped a
wedge into the larger papers pub
lished in the northern section of the
state.
In local affairs The News stands
ready to make prOportionate offer.
If Palatka shall raise in cash for the
purpose Of placing propaganda tend
ling toward the benefit of the city
and county the sum of thirty thou
sand dollars The News will gladly
extend its liberality and offer free Of
all cost publicity to THE extent of one
thousand dollars. This offer must be
accepted within a reasonably short
time-and the raising of the thirty
thousand in actual cash by the city
and county shall be taken as an act
of acceptance Of the proposition;
iwhereupon the work will start with
out any legal compuIsion upon the
Ipart of those subscribing the larger
| fund.
Here are propositions worthy of
comment and speedy action.
Can the state or the county afford
to reject these proffers of high-grade
publicity?

POSTAL IMPROVEMENT
week IS OBSERVED
May ! Sees lnaugurated First
General Campaign of
Kind in Service.

without the Postal Service, business
would languish in a day, and be at a
standstill in a week. Public opinion
would die Of dry rot. Sectional hatred
or prejudice only would flourish, and
-mindedness thrive.
It is the biggest distinctive business
In the world and it comes nearer to the
innermost interests of greater num-
Der of men and women than any other
institution on earth. No private busi-
ness, however widespread, touches so
many lives so often or sharply; no
church reaches into so many souls,
1utters so many pulses, has so many
human beings dependent on its min
istrations
"PostaI Improvement Week" has
been set for May /, by the Postmaster
General. This Is the first general CAM
paign Of its kind in the Postal Service
for several decades. Business men
and their organizations, large users Of
the mail, newspapers, motion pictures,
advertisers, and the entire organlza-
ton Of $4,000 postal workers are to be
enlisted in this countrywide campaign
of interest in postal improvements.
Your help Is vital. Address your let
tiers plainly with pen or typewriter.
Give street address. Spell out name
Of State, don't abbreviate. Put your
return address in the upper left hand
corner of envelope (not on the back)
and always look at your letter before
dropping in the mail to see If 1t is
properly addressed. This care in the
use of the mails is for your benefit and
speeds up the dispatch and delivery
of mail matter.
If you have any complaints of poor
service make them to your postmaster.
He has instructions to investigate them
and report to the department.
