' composed of ception, the farmers and other avo cations ought also to have a show-{ ing. Mr. Mays is a farmer, al-! though we doubt if he lays his hand: to the plow except in a figurative sense, lawyers with one ex- —0 Where an authority so judicial in temperament and conservative and philosophical in estimating human | affairs as Editor Harris of the Ocala Eanner unreservedly condemns Fed- eral Judge Speer, just off the grill of congressional investigation, and compares him to Jeffries of infamous memory, we feel almost that we should revise our own more chari- table estimate of the Georgia jurist. But has Editor Harris read Judze Speer’s testimony in his own behalf? Such testimony is not the best in any case, but there is doubtless enough truth in this instance to make the judge look a little less the tyrant, the egotist and the unscru- pulous nepotist and self-seeker. So dearly do we love to contemplate the character of a fearless, capable and upright judge, learned, courte- ous, inflexibly just, not given to emotional outbursts, incapable of personal resentments on the bench, and sufficiently stern in his fibre to commanid respect for himself and his court among all classes, that we feel almost a personal dis- tress when an American judge is viewed with suspicion and threat- cned with impeachment. While we think that, Judge Speer's usefulness on the bench has ended and that he ought to resign, we feel sure than | his enormous egotism and corre-| sponding self-respect have saved him , from the corruption that justifies impeachment. Dissikanincs Our turn has come at last. Re- cently we launched a beautiful half colump tribute to a mid-winter day in South Florida which we thought was rather neat, dontcherknow, and since then it has enjoyed a wide- spread popularity in the Florida press, reprcduced in many papers, but never by any chance credited to1 the d.akeiand Telegram, 0 The following from the St. Peters- burg Times has special value for us because the Times hands out no taf- fy, is discriminating in its praise andl so well-informed that that praise can always be taken at its face value: “The Lakeland Telegram is mov- ing into its own new, three-story brick building. Lakeland is one of Florida's finest cities, and the Tele- gram was the greatest single help that made it so, and Neighbor Heth erington richly deserves the larg: material rewards that he is receiv- ing."” S R o Bl i s £ & <) 5105 &l &) 45 Comic Opera q THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAK ELAND, FLA., FEB. 2, 1914.
