The Post, it- self, is like a bewildering three-ring circus in the lavish, picturesque way in which it displays its contents and tramples on all the traditions of staid, old-fashioned journalism. Dbty says that woman n Champ Clark suffrage is inevitable and now Wil- liam J. Bryan comes out in unquali- fied endorsement of that propaganda. Down here in the South where pecu- liar conditions make us necessarily conservative in all matters of suf- frage, we naturally look askance at any proposition to extend it. En- thusiasm in this new cause is con- spicuous by its absence and among the masses of the women there is; little or no demand for it. But the | seed has been sown and they are sprouting in spots and it is practic- ally sure that sooner or later wom- en will have suffrage on the same terms that men have it in every State in the Union. But it would be an outrage and a crime to force it upon States that don’'t want it by an amendment to the federal con- stitution, and if i shall be wisely left to the States to settle the ques- tion, each for itself, there is no doubt that considerations of politi- cal expediency, such as representa- tion based on the popular vote, will bring the South into line and give her women the ballot. But the cus- toms, prejudices and traditions of centurieg yield slowly and it will be a good many years yet before this consummation arrives. O THE ROAR OF THE BULL MOOSE Next Saturday is the time set for hearing the application of H. L. Andergon for an injunction to re- strain the secretary of state from certifying the names of nominees in the late primary to the commission- ers in each county to be put on the official ticket in the general election, and Judge Simmons will hear the case in Jacksonville. The ground of the complaint is that the Bryan primary law is unconstitutional, and in a letter to the Ocala Star Col- onel Anderson says of that law. “The law was written for the ex- act purpose of preventing any party other than the Democratic party participating in primary elections and consequently no minority party can have its candidates’ names printed on the election ballot at the general election. It was the inten- tion of the Legislature to enact a law that would forever stamp out all opposition to the Democratic or- ganization. It creates a political trust more obnoxious than the indus- trial combinations denounced by the Democratic platform.” These lurid charges are, mere generalities, and if they true we believe that every neway in Florida would unite for the repeal of such and un-Amepican statute can see the only the distorted views of political partisanship in at the natural and inevitable Democ- ratio majority in Florida, and suspect that Colonel Anderson’s real grievance is not the alleged uncon- stitutionality of the primary law, but the prevalence of so many Demo. crats in this State that the Bull Moosers are not strong enough to be seriously with in our politics. Happily, Judge whom the case will just able of course, were iquitous But themselves an In We in charges a chronic rage we reckoned as a force Simmons, before be heard, and jurist, fully of putting the primary law the titution, ision will b is a capable to the touchstone of con and, his dec of the matter it ¥ suggestive lic a fair line the contention. not be con- be will and will give the on the merits of LAKELAND PEOPLE VI3IT FROSTPROCF and Mrs. H. J. Conibear, Miss Josephine Drane, Master Frank Watson, of Quincy, Fla., and Mr. Ossian Drane were the guests last Sunday of Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Ohlinger at Frost Mr. Helen Drane, Miss | Proof. motored to the Ohlin- ger home in Mr. Drane’s Rambler, reaching there about 10:30 where their arrival was anticipated. Mrs, E. J. Walker, her daughter, Miss Mary and son John, old residents of Lakeland, and neighbors of Mr. Drane’s family for many years, were also guests of Mr. and Mrs. Ohlinger for the day, being their neighbors now at Frost Proof. A very delicious and bountiful dinner was served to which all present did ample justice. A party of young folks from the neighborhood came in soon after dinner and enjoyed a most delightful social hour—after which the majority of the party donned bathing suits and enjoyed a swim in the beautiful clear waters of Silver lake, on the shores of which Mr. Ohlinger's fine grove and home situated. Music, of a high class, was enjoyed later, and it was indeed a treat to hear Mr. Scrogie of Boston, whose fine baritone commands high prices in several churches in his home city. Mrs. Ohlinger served delicious refreshments before this congenial company dispersed, as the sun was nearing the horizon and a 45-mile drive lay ahead of the Lake- land party. A most remarkable centerpiece of the dinner tab'c must be commented cn. It consisted of a pyramid of fruits gathered from Mr. Ohlinger's yard and grove and contained grape- frait, oranges (naval, king and Satsuma), limes, tangprines, man- goes, grapes and figs. Their home is ideally located on a high bluff over- looking the blue waters of cne of Frost Proof's most beautiful lakes, of which there are several. The many friends of the Ohlingers and Walkers will be interessted in hearing of their continued good health and prosperty and the de- dghtful situation of their homes and as long as Lakeland had to give them up as residents, feel pleased The party is that they are so delightfully located ! at Frost Proof.
