So you have ’em in Jacksonville, too. “Certainly, we should love our enemies—but so-and-so are God’s enemies, not ours,” was the cry of the old _theol- ogians. The newspaper profession of Florida suffers a distinct loss in the death of Her- bert Felkel. A gallant champion for the higher things in life rests. . The Union of Hoboes are asking for acode. One of the clauses probably will contain the provision for four workingless periods, each for three months. 0. O. MeIntyre says that anyone can have faith in the sunshine of a gallant morning. Then we should have faith for- ever, for always the sun shines here on this island in the southern seas. Our good friend Jerry Cartey¥ has thrown his hat in the ring for railroad commissioner.

Hereafter newspapers cannot accept legal notices at a rate less than the legal under the code, and those who practice may find,the selves in hot Water with the eode authorities.— The Florida Advocate. In the time of Socrates there were no scurrilous newspapers nor decent ones for that matter, but there were scurrilous ton- | gues, and when his diciples advised him WILL WE DO IT? The influence of a community in state and national affairs is determined by the | number of voters in that community. Key Westers should appreciate the importance of that fact; should try their hardest to make the list of qualified voters in this community so large that every poli- tician, aspiring for state or national office, or holding an office of that kind, will help us whole-heartedly when we call on him for help. Frequently we hear Key Westers re- mark that this city or that city can get whatever it wishes in public improvements from the state or federal government, and that this man or that man in public life is always ready to “get on the job” to fur- ther the interests of such a city, bnt that we here get little support in our efforts to have some project adopted. What is the cause of that difference of support? It will be found, as a rule, that the city, big or small, that gets political sup- port is the city that strives to make as good | a showing as possible on every election day. i Key West is not a city of that type. does not exceed 80 percent of the total pos- sible, and, unless there is a “hot” Jocal | fight, only four-fifths of the vocers : go ‘to | the polls. The result is that Key Westers do not | poll a sufficient number of votes to make | themselves impressive among outside poli- | ticians. The latter should not be blamed for | their attitude. Votes count with _ poli-| ticians, because it is through the medium of votes that they get into office, and no | more blame attaches to them than does to hi a business man who seeks the largest | volume of business possible. . Politically, we will continue to drift along as we have for years unless we be- come imbued with a community spirit that | will insist and persist on our showing our | full strength at the polls. Every man and every woman in Key West who is eligible to vote should vote. If that is done, Key West’s political influence will become greater; we will then succeed in many instances where we will fail other- wise; we will then get something our- selves, instead of supinely complaining about the other city getting everything, as we do at present. We have the power to help ourselves, Will we do it? i | A PRISON FOR WOMEN Six years ago a new Federal prison! for women was opened at Alderson, West Virginia, with Dr. Mary B. Harris as! superintendent. A recent writer describes it as “a Federal junk yard where women are sent whe have broken the nation’s} laws,” but adds that under the guidance, of Dr. Harris “these misfits of society are | being reconditioned to such good purpose | that the prison world in general is sitting up and taking notice.” Dr. Harris has demonstrated that strict prison discipline may well be com- bined with sympathetic interest in her un- fortunate wards, a majority of whom ' are drug addicts when they ate sent to her. While many of these cases seem Jippeleas, much success has been attained already in effecting what appear to be permanent | cures. A striking illustration of the efficacy |} of the prison’s system is seen in the fact |‘ that of 170 paroles granted, only one has! been broken.

Candidate Mitchell, out for Senator Trammell’s scalp, in a speech before the | Florida Press Association, said concerning | the publication of the delinquent tax lists, | { | “that it should be remembered that pub-| lication of the delinquent tax lists costs the | county nothing under the present laws. Payment for such publication is paid by the | delinquents themselves, and added to the | other penalties for each piece of property.
