BOB HOLLY MAD AGAIN.

We ooh hiVW lllS AiuetSL
with Bob Holly, of the Sanford Her
aid. Some time ago Bob wanted to
take a criminal out of the Jackson
yille Jail and hang him for a crime
at DeLand. Now Bob wants to de-
port, Danish, excommunicate or i'm
prison the migratory gentry which
wends its way to the land of flowers
each winter. Here's his latest la
ment:
ave are tired, absolutely peevish
about these walkers" workers"
"wigglers," "jugglers," "jarheads"
and all others who are working Flor
ida. They may call it touring" Flo
rida but we do not. They are here
every day with a book to sign, with
yards of stouff about themselves
walking from Timbuctoo to Saskatch-
evan, about lecturing, about every
thing under the sun and the sum and
substance of it is they want free adj
vertising in order that they may CLEAN
some moneys from Sanford. If we
were mayor of Sanford we would or
der everything off the street that
looked like begging or working the
public for any cause whatsoever. San
ford needs the money that is spent
for these people to "see Florida" ev-
cry winter, Why don't they come
down in the summer?"
THEY are nIssances, undoubtedly
but our observation recently is that it
is cooler in Florida for this kind of
pest than it is in the northern re-
gions.

MANY TO FACE
MURDER CHARGE

Marion, ILL.,, Oct. % (By the Asso
ciated Press).-The special granc
jury, which today resumed its inves.
tigation of the Herrin mine killings
after months recess, late this af.
ternoon returned an indictment 70,
murder, naming 48 persons and an.
nounced it had completed its work
This makes Ala persons the grand
jury has indicted in connection with
the rioting in which % men were
killed.
Circuit Judge Hartwell, before
whom the indictment was returned
expressed the opinion that the true
bill is illegal because it was returned
at the Semptember term of court by
a grand jury impaneled by the July
term of court. States Attorney De
Los Duty expressed an opposite opin-
ion and stated he would appeal to the
state supreme court if the indict-
ments were declared illegal.
Those indicted today were charged
with the death of Ignace Kubinis, the
last victim of the rioting to expire,
who died since the grand jury took a
temporary adjournment 80 days ago.
Only a few witnesses were heard to-
day and they are said to have told
of wounds inflicted on Kubinis, which
are said to have resulted in his death.
In the total of 434 indictments, II
individual persons are named, some
of the men having as high as nine in
dictments charging murder, rioting
and assault facing them. Twenty-one
o. the individuals are charged only
with rioting and assault, leaving Sc
indicted for murder. OF the total
number of indictments 215 are for
murder, lO3 for assault and ll6 for
rioting.
The legality of final 48 indictments
returned today may not be decided
until next year. 1t was stated to-
night, because it was said there prob
ably would not be an opportunity to
test the jury's proceedings until the
indictments voted today are called
for trial, which is not expected BE-
fore 1928.
All except half dozen of the in
dicted men either have been arrested
or surrendered voluntarily. The
missing men are said to be unidenti-
fed or to have fed the country. Bond
has been accepted for all but eight
of the men who are Charged with the
more serious oifenses and are lodged
in Jail.
The first trial in correction with
the riots is scheduled to begin No.
vember when 48 men charged with
the murder of one non-union worker
are to be tried.

The Fall Flowers

So many people have beautiful
flower gardens this fall and the dah-
las, chrysanthemums and roses arc
the loveliest things imaginable. The
Gahlias are here in all colors and sizes
and chrysanthemums are running
true 70 form and are gorgeous, and
give world of satisfaction, and the
late roses are lovelier than either one.
Union is going to be the "City
Beautiful" and now is the time to plan
for next spring, as so many flowers
can be planted this fall. Put in some
rose bushes, and a row of sweet peas
and few snapdragons and largspurs
and sweet williams. Let's try it.

TEXAS POLITICS
WAKING WARM

New Orleans, Oct. 23.-Support-
ers Of E. B. Peddy lost tfieir fight TO-
day before a special tribunal of fed
eral judges to force the use Of his
name on the official Texas ballot fol
United States senator instead OF
Earle B. Mayfeld, Democratic nomi-
nee and reputed Ku Klux Klan candi.
date.
The judges held that they were
without jurisdiction to grant the re-
lief asked for by the Peddy faction,
adding that other questions than that
Of jurisdiction were not considered.
The case was transferred to New
Orleans after an injunction had been
filed In Mobile to compel the secre-
tary of the state of Texas to put the
name of Peddy on the ballots. Judge
Erwin of the Mobile federal court de-
clined to hear the case on the grounds
of no jurisdiction.
Attorneys for the fusion candidate
announced they will carry their fight
to the United States supreme court If
necessary and those representing the
state of Texas heralded the decision
as victory for state grihts.
National politics became involved
in the case when attorneys for the
anti-Ku Klux Klan or fusion fac
ton announced that R. B. Creager,
one of the complainants had received
a letter from President Harding in
which the national executive is said
to have commended Texas Republi-
cans for aiding independent Demo-
Gratis in coalition against all classes
intent upon -dictation contrary to Am
erican ideals.
In presenting their arguments at
torneys for the Peddy faction con.
tended that Mayfeld is the candidate
of the Ku Klux Klan, which they de-
clared has absorbed the Democratic
party in Texas. Therefore they charg-
ed Mayfield is not the Democratic
candidate. The claimed their client
was being "unconstitutionally dis
criminated against" by the election
laws as construed by the attorney
general.
Attorneys for the state argued that
the khan issue was not a part Of the
question. The issue, they declared,
was whether the state has the right
to regulate its own primaries. Attor-
ney General Keeling declared that he
was e1nt ID sfendins the Elan or, Or May:
field, but was defending the officers
