The Preachers’ Union should look into this at once. By-the-way, who got the fee for tys ing this nuptial knot? 0 The Florida Record, of Tallahas- see, has a red-hot editorial aimed at some “Religious Hypocrite” who it seems has consigned to damnation people who tango or hesitate. This is no new doctrine, however. Hasn't the Record often heard that “He who hesitates is lost?" 0 We regret to note that Editor Me- Kenzie of the Palatka Herald, one of the few editors who won out on the last primary, refers to Harry Floyd as™a ‘‘wind-jammer,” and seems to rejoice that this genius is eliminateq from the Legislature. We are afraid that a man who can't ap- preciate Floyd will not be a brilliant law-maker. —0 Cary A. Hardee, of Live Oak, t» one of the strong candidates for speaker of the House of Representa- tives. Mr. llard}c is one of the ablest men who ‘will make up our next legislative body. Being a bank- eer he is in danger of being clasded as a ‘‘plute,”” but perhaps hy‘can pull through as a ‘‘progressive plute.” IR, U Many papers of the State have commented wonderingly on the sup- posed proposition to sell Lakeland's municipal light and water plant. We assure them thdt no such idea was ever seriously considereq and if put to a vote of the people the proposi- tion would be defeated ten to one. The municipal owned plant of the city of Lakelang is paying hand- somely despite the most adverse con- ditions, and when it is properly equipped, as it certainly shortly will be, it will furnish current and water at a phenomenally low rate and yet pay every cent connected with its cost and maintenance. —0 Those newspapers that do not car- ry the Associated Press dispatches, but have an inferior service, printed a statement in their Thursday issue that the Imperator had gone ashore. The report was flashed to this ot- fice Thursday morning, but shortly thereafter a correction was received, the rumor having been ascertained to be without foundation. The pa- pers having the Associated Press ser- vice are mnever either faked or scooped. The Evening Telegram has the Associated Press franchise in Lakeland, and is one of only a few Florida papers carrying this service. Hugh Sparkman, of the Orlando Sentinel, who is older right than the editor of this paper will be now at 90, intimates that we're getting aged because we protest against paint, powder and plaster on the faces of the girls. Our contention that September Morn is more modest than some of the Janes who bedetk themselves not wisely but too much, is founded on the sweet simplicity of our youth, which prefers the nat- uralness of the one to the overdone the other. Old, in- deed! We may not be connojsseurs as regzards the works of art we sometimes meet, but artificiality of some of walking if we couldn’t see the real charms of Hugh Spark- drown our- womanhooq as far as man can, we'd go and selves in water! ——— o — The Palatka News, published near the scene of the operations of Chas.

Mr. Eaton answered Mr. Smith's questions, stating that when the commissioners came in they found the First National Bank the desig- nated depositary of the city, and the bank was carrying an indebtedness of about $30,000 for the city. There were "proposals from this bank and from the American State Bank for handling the city’s business. The Jatter bank's proposal was to handle only one-third of the business; to carry one-third of the indebtedness, and to pay 4 1-2 per cent interest on only one-third of the sinking fund. The First National’s proposition was to handle all or none of the business. If the American State Bank's propo- sition had been accepted, it would leave two-thirds of the city’s indebt- edness unprovided for, hence it was impossible to do otherwise than to accept the First National’s proposi- tion. As to going out of the State to borrow money, this was the action of the bank, for which the commis- sioners were not responsible. It was caused by the visit of a bank in- spector who instructed the bank that it could not be allowed to carry so large a loan on the city, and a por- tion of it was therefore transferred to an Atlanta bank. Mr. Smith consiaered that the ac- Foefoegoce Breocs 24 =2 PEDDEEE BT TEPPPPEERPPRPPH PP PP 5 S L L L L L L LT L tion of the commissioners in this matter was extravagant and unbusi- nesslike, and said he would not vote for bonds while the city's business was handled in such a manner. Ile was somewhat heated in his remarks. Mr. R. E. Lufsey vigorously de- fended Mr., Eaton and the commis- sioners, and sugzested the selection of twelve men from various walks of lite to select three of their number to handle the bond funds Meo N, A in fav- or of the bond issue ang saiq the Riggins spoke preposition woulg carry if there was no uncertainty about the plan pro- ced being carried out That exact lates should be pre {exactly where the ex sions are to | be placed and cost of same, ang the cost of putting the plant first- class shape, so that it coulq | produce economically . «|l the Sunshine and the Shag. ows Will Fall ,Behind' .
