than one can tell.
ffbi'.'a the matter with hav

among the various candidates
for public office in this county?
There are many questions upon
which the voting people should
be informed and of cour&e each
candidate for office is willing
to let the people know where be
stands upon the questions prom
inent before the public. We
know a speaking campaign has
not been the custom in this
county for many years but now
is a- good time to make it a cus
tom. Let the Executive Com
mittee prepare a campaign pro
gram providing for a meeting of
the candidates in the several
precincts. The candidates, we
think, would enjoy it and we
know that the people would de
rive benefit trom hearing the
Duolic questions discussed.

What would become of us
were it not for the good women
of the land? The lady directors
of the Daniel Memorial Orphan
age in Jacksonville.of which
Mrs. Susan Hartridge is presi
dent, covered themselves with
glory when they spurned the
offer of president' Brown of the
race course who tendered the
orphanage one half of the pro
ceeds arising from a .Sunday
night performance of the Mon
crief Minstrels amounting to
more than five hundred dollars.
There are hundreds of people
who will argue (hut the money
being for a charitable purpose
should have been accepted, but
we agree with Mrs. Hartridge
who saW that "God had taken
care of the institution for many
years and would continue to do
so without the officers accepting
money arising from SuDday des.
ecration." The faith of the
good women was rewarded speed
ily by the voluntary contribu
tion of admirers of the stand
they had taken, and the rive
hundred dollars was quickly
forthcoming. A'l praise to the
good women of our land.
After Govenor Brown of Geor
gia and Mayor Maddox of At
lanta bad declined the honor of
introducing Commander Peary
to an Atlanta audience, the lec
ture tour, of the distinguished
explorer in the South was sud
denly cut short, and southern
audiences will not have the
benefit of listening to the story
of his "dash to the pole." We
are not prepared to say that
Peary is a fake and that be did
not reach the pole but it is a
fact that doubt of the achieve
ment is possessing the minds of
thousands of Americans.

Many of the county commu
tes are Qverridiug the prescribed
rule of the State Committee and
are ordering the names of can
didates for Circuit Judge and
State Attorneys to be printed
upon the official primary bal
lots. Among the counties
where such action has been tak
en we note Escambia, Lafayette,
Taylor, Columbia, Marion, St.
Lu:ie and others not now re
called. Up to this writing the
executive committee of this
couuty has taken no action on
th'e question, the members there
of being divided as to what Is
the proper course to be taken.
A few nights ago a man was
knocked down on the streets of
Jacksonville and robbed of
every cent he had on his person.
When he came to bis senses he
rushed to the police station and
told of his adventure imploring
the policemen to use every ef
fort to reover his money be
cause he was on his way to get
married, and if his cash was
not recovered the wedding
would have to be postponed. A
brother editor of the State whose
name we won't print, is unkind
enough to say in commenting
on the incident that "some peo
ple dou't know when providence
is doing everything in her power
to help them out of trouble."
Poll tax is coming in slow,
says our Tax Collector. Very
few are paying this tax which
is absolutely essential to the
voting privilege. Under the
primary law every man must
pay this tax (or himself no
other nu can pay it for you
April 9th i the very last day
upon which this tax can be paid.
Better not wait any longer. Go
nTHiivn
EASTER SHOES,
to see the tax collector to-day
this very hour and get the
matter straightened You would
feel embarrassed to be- denied
the privilege of voting on pri
mary day, but it will be the duty
of the inspectors of election to
deny you this privilege unless
your name appears on the list
as having paid your poll tax.
