FINANCIAL LEADERS SEE HOPEFUL SIGNS AHEAD IN RECONSTRUCTION PERIOD.
No Long Depression Looked For In the South.
FOLLOWING LETTERS
FROM FLORIDA BANKERS ARE INTERESTING AND MOST HOPEFUL.
Financial leaders of the South do not look upon the present period of deflation and re-adjustment as a national disaster. On the contrary they consider it an inevitable process, which is the necessary preparation for sound growth and prosperity. They do not expect a prolonged depression and some of them predict, quite definitely, a turn for the better with the beginning of the spring season.
A number of men eminent in business and finance have expressed such views in letters to Governor M. B. Wellborn of the Federal Reserve Bank written in reply to the following letter from him:
“My Dear Sir: In a period of readjustment, which is always accompanied by inconvenience, strain and some losses, it is a great help to the people if they are animated by a courageous, cheerful and patient spirit, with a disposition toward mutual helpfulness and co-operation. In such a crisis it is to them what morale is to the soldier and brings the same splendid results.
“The superb spirit which animated our people during the war, nerved our soldiers for every conflict and made them cheerful under hardship and suffering will bring us safely and triumphantly through these trying times.
“In order to cultivate such a spirit I would like to send out broadcast over the district some brief but strong statements by leading men whom the people will hear and follow. Let us crystalize a public sentiment that will meet the emergency in a manner credible to the South and the nation. Our section has been very prosperous for the past few years, and surely it is in good condition to meet the present time.
“To this end I will be pleased to have from you at your earliest convenience a letter expressing your views on the situation and the best way to meet it.”
The replies came from the states composing the sixth Federal Reserve District - Alabama, Florida, Georgia, part of Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee.
In Florida, where they have a succession on cash crops of fruits and vegetables, reinforced by the phosphate industry, the problem of financing the cotton crop is hardly felt, and as prices of vegetables and fruits have been good, the State is in a comparatively comfortable financial condition.
Without exception the writers of these letters express a feeling of confidence and hopefulness. With a clear view of the situation, facing its difficulties frankly, they manifest calmness, courage and strength, with a cheerful confidence in the ability of the people to meet and solve their problems.
Several of them emphasize the fact that with larger resources and greater reserve power the South, like the rest of the country, is greatly strengthened by the Federal Reserve System, which enables sound business to pass safely through a trying period, which, under our former inelastic financial system, might have resulted in disaster.
It is a noteworthy fact that Mr. Mason Smith, of New Orleans, one of the largest cotton men in the South, who has to deal with the financial problem of that crop, takes a hopeful view of the situation. It is also worthy of note that several of our leading financiers express the opinion that the period of deflation is nearing its end, and one of the most eminent of them, Dr. P. H. Saunders, a leading financier of New Orleans, predicts that this process will be practically completed in the South by March first, and that (continued on page six).

LETTUCE SHIPPED OUT FROM SANFORD BRING GOOD PRICE
Sanford shipping ten cars daily now.
The lettuce season is on now in full blast and the markets promise to be getting better all this week or especially before Thanksgiving as all the world wants Sanford lettuce for the big day.
There were fifteen cars of lettuce shipped out Saturday making a total for the week of eighty cars which is a fine record for the first week of the movement. There will probably be twenty out today and the price is said to be very good although just what it is bringing in New York is problematical, some saying it is high and it must be for it is bringing $2.50 here for fancy stuff.
If the weather remains cool Sanford growers will make a fine thing out of their lettuce this season, probably more than ever before.

REPUBLICANS WILL MAKE MORE PIES
LOOK LIKE THEY WILL OUST EVERY DEMOCRATIC OFFICE HOLDER
(by P. H. McGowan)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22-
Gossipy political Washington is pulsating and all agog over contemplated changes in the governmental changes when the Harding administration takes hold of the federal business on March 4, but already plans are not only being discussed, but in some instances are well under way for “firing” democratic office holders. They will be supplanted by faithful from the Republican fold. This gossip covers the white house, the senate, the house of representatives and every government department and bureau, big and little, in and out of Washington.
In plain words, if you are a Democrat and have failed to hold down your place with some kind of double locked contrivance, just back on the farm or in the village store, for that is the immediate objective of many a thousand democrat in the very near future. It is not only true but indicates at the same time that the republicans are taking cognizance of the fact that for the next four years they are to be the proprietors of the mammoth federal pie counter at Washington.
Incoming Republican senators and house members have already passed the word out along the line that they mean business; everything from the president’s executive order of 1917, whereby all postmasters were placed under civil service rules down to the various departmental places in Washington are to be recognized, this organization to be for the principal purpose of putting the G.O.P. in and the democrats out of business.
The Republicans assert that the order of the Wilson administration just referred to will be revoked and the way opened to replace thousands of Democratic postmasters with Republicans.
The establishment of the plan whereby any employ who has charges made against him will be given a hearing to see the evidence against him is almost a certainty.
It is being circulated here that a majority of the postal clerks now in the service in the recent election worked openly against the Democratic ticket and for the Republicans. It is said that many of the officials and no small part of the personnel of the post office employees over the country have been at war with the postmaster general and, as a result, they refused to support Cox and Roosevelt. It is now being said that the Republican chiefs, having had support of the big army of postal employees, want to see them satisfied.
Representative Martin M. Madden of Chicago, the Illinois member of the house, who openly declares that he sees no objection to the same schools for white and colored pupils, the same street cars for the two races, the general use of pullman sleepers and dining cars for negroes along with white people, and that he has no use in any way for anything savoring of a “Jim Crow” law is the chairman of the house committee on post offices. With the leading men on the Democratic side of this committee defeated in the recent election landslide it will be easy sailing for Madden, with his Republican colleagues, to bring out of the committee almost any radical bills they may desire. John A. Moon, of Tennessee, was one of the southern members who fought the democrats’ battles, but now that will fall on the shoulders of Congressman Bell of Georgia, who will become the ranking Democratic member of the post office committee.
The general postal situation indicates that with a Republican postmaster-general, and with both the

NEW SENATOR FROM DAKOTA GIVES HIS ALMS
(By The Associated Press)
Fargo, N.D., Nov. 22 -
Dr. E. F. Ladd, first U.S. Senator elected as a candidate of the Non-partisan League announced here that his first aim in Congress will be to promote a better system for marketing the grain and other food products of the farm.
“It is a serious problem that faces congress,” Dr. Ladd said. “Something must be done and within the next few years if we are to save the farming industry from demoralization. Even now the most of the men left on the farm are middle aged and elderly – the younger men are looking for greater opportunities.
“I believe that dealing in futures on shorts – selling grain in which the seller had an equity, which never existed and which will never be delivered is a species of gambling which does not stabilize prices or benefit the producer or consumer. It is a matter which every legislator ought to study until he has a just comprehension of it and then consider whether it is not worthy of his attention.
“The co-operative movement must go hand in hand with helpful legislation in improving the situation. Farmers must come to own their buying and selling organizations.
“If legislation is passed making funds from federal reserve banks and federal land banks available to these organizations farmers will be able to hold their grains until they are needed instead of dumping them on the market at the end of the harvest.”
Dr. Ladd added that effort should be made to bring a better school system into rural districts and give the farm children the same children the same chances for education as hold in towns and cities.

SHIPPING BOARD PROBE REACHES HIGH PLACES HITS WILSON’S FAMILY
Banker Who Shared In Deal Names President’s Brother
SAID TO BE A LOAN
BUT NEVERTHELESS IT LOOKS LIKE BAD BUSINESS IN THE BOARD.
New York, Nov. 22.
Allegations tending to implicate men now and formerly connected with the United States Shipping board with alleged collusion in securing contracts for a ship building firm, were made Saturday by Tucker K. Sands, a witness before the Walsh committee investigating shipping board affairs.
The men named and alleged to have participated in a distribution of more than $30,000 were R. W. Bolling, brother-in-law of President Wilson and who later became treasurer of the shipping board; Lester Sisler, formerly secretary of the board; Jno. W. Cranor, a representative of the Downey Shipbuilding Company and Sands himself. He testified that he received money in the form of notes, some of which he discounted and at different times described payments to Boiling and Sisler as both “payments” and “loans”. In another part of his testimony he asserted that this money was to be understood as a commission to him for securing a loan from the bank to the shipbuilding company, with which the witness was then connected.
The testimony of Sands was preceded by that of Alfred W. McCann, a reporter for the New York Globe, who swore he had secured from Mr. Sands an affidavit detailing the entire transaction. McCann further testified that when he took the affidavit to Sands for him to sign, he declined to do so on advise of his attorney. Previous to submitting the affidavit for Sands’ signature, however, McCann said he had taken the document to the shipping board and had it photostated. One of these copies carrying notations in what was testified to be Sands’ handwriting and which Sands afterwards testified to being ‘correct except that some of the facts may be a little different” was presented by McCann in evidence. The document, however, was not made a part of the stenographer’s minutes of the meeting.
In the course of questioning by Chairman Walsh and Congressman Kelly, Sands said he did not think Bolling ever got a cent from anybody for aiding to get a contract – that money given him a “loan.”
Sands, who is president of the First National Bank, Washington, testified that it was “his understanding” that $2,400 he loaned Bolling against his note and of which Bolling has already paid back $300, was Bolling’s share of the $40,000 bribe.”
Bolling’s share of the money, Mr. Sands said he understood, was to have been $6,200, but that Bolling did not take the “balance” between it and the $1,800 loaned him.
At another time he stuck to a statement that Bolling was to get his share of the transaction – that he “gave Slater $5,000 – and that he had loaned Sisler for one of his companions $5,000 on his note, which note he still has. He said he had never had a controversy with Bolling and was on friendly terms with him. He also mixed into his testimony details of a purchase by him from Bolling of a lot for $900.
Sands testified he was now under indictment for “allowing a company to overdraw – a shipping company, in which I was interested.”
He testified that he was then connected with the Commercial National Bank of Washington, “its cashier.” He also testified he had endeavored without success to secure Mr. bolling’s influence to have this case settled.

LLOYD-GEORGE GIVES VIEWS ON VARIOUS PROBLEMS
LONDON, Nov. 20.
David Lloyd-George in his address at the lord mayor’s banquet at the Guild hall last night discussed briefly and pointedly various problems with which the government is dealing. He plunged immediately into foreign affairs and appealed for the patience, for faith in the world settlement, declared that the highest wisdom demanded that prejudices and dislikes be kept under control of Europe to be saved from, becoming a welter pf raging hatreds.
Referring to the “questions between Germany and the allies,” Mr. George said that the real test of German sincerity was disarmament, and be added, “the report I have to give on the subject is very satisfactory.”
“The German army is rapidly being reduced to 100,000. There are still too many rifles at large in Germany, but they are a greater menace to Germany’s internal peace than to Germany’s neighbors.”
Another important point said the premier, was reparations. “Germany is prepared to submit certain proposals for the liquidation of her obligations,” he continued, “and personally I am pleased with them. They will be considered at the conferences and it is satisfactory to note that Germany realizes that her first duty is to repair the devastation the German armies wrought.
“I wish I could speak as hopefully of the Russian problem, where we have to do with men professing the ridiculous, crazy creed of Bolshevism, who unfortunately fail to realize how important it is they should respect their obligations.
Speaking of the Irish question the premier said:
“Unless I am mistaken, by the steps we have taken, we have murder by the throat. Do not pay too much attention to detailed accounts of disturbances and what they call the horrors of reprisals given out by partisans, who slur over the horrors of murder. There will be no real peace, no conciliation whilst this murder conspiracy is scattered.
“We are getting the right sort of men and are dispersing the terrorists. The government will seek further powers, if necessary to deal with the situation. If it is war, as the terrorists say, then they cannot complain if the government employs some of the rules of war against them.”

CAMPERS RETURN
The party composed of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Purden, Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Lloyd, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Smith and little daughter, Evelyn, Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Holly, Mr. and Mrs. R. S. Holly and Robert Holly returned late last night from camp N. N. N. at the ranch on the Econlockhatchee and they had a grand time. They used the ranch house for sleeping quarters and cooked out in the yard at the big camp fire. Henry Purden and Don Smith were the champions in the fishing line taking a fine string of specked perch and trout and they divided honors in the hunting line with Reginald Holly and about fifty squirrels were brought into camp while there. Ralph Wight and Bob Kennedy happened along for dinner and swelled the larder with a brace of ducks and some snipe and they were such good fellows they were made to stay over for supper.
Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Hand and Mr. and Mrs. Archie Betts came out for Sunday dinner bringing a big basket of lunch and they found the table piled high with everything in the game line and had a big Sunday dinner of baked duck, fried squirrel and snipe and fish and everything. The party had glorious weather and enjoyed the trip so much that the ladies are importuning their husbands to take them again about Thanksgiving time and maybe the camping idea will become a permanent thing. The camp was named the N. N. N. camp for reasons known only to those who were there and while it is not a permanent name the next camp will have to go some if there is any more enjoyment than the first one. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Lawson could not go on the trip as Mr. Lawson was taken ill at the moment but he loaned the party his truck and the only drawback was the fact that the Lawsons had to stay home at the last minute.
The camp also had a mascot in the shape of a stray fox terrier who was promptly named “Doodles” in honor of one of the ladies. S. M. Lloyd and R. J. Holly qualified as first class camp cooks and they can cook flap jacks and fry squirrels with the best of them now. In fact everybody in camp was on the job and the boys think it is fine to have the girls along to show them how to really cook ducks as they should be cooked. Henry Purden is also recommended to anyone wanting a good truck driver and cook combined although at present he is very busy at his old job with the A. C. L. Railway.

THE PEOPLE WILL NOT STAND FOR IT.
It has been publicly denied that John J. Mendenhall, how serving a life sentence for the murder of Mrs. Charles Eliot, of this city, and still under indictment for the murder, at the same time of her daughter, Susie Eliot, will seek, or is seeking a pardon. This public denial came following the united protest of the women’s clubs of the states after a “rumor” got cut that application would be made for executive clemency prior to Jan. 1, 1920.
When we see what the mere rumor applying for a pardon for Mendenhall has done, what will be the result in Florida when the application for the pardon is published? The Tribune does not believe there would be housing accommodations enough in Tallahassee to take care of those who would flock to the capital protesting against the pardoning of this man, found guilty of the most cold-blooded spectacular murder of the elder woman and who still has hanging over his head in case he should be pardoned, another charge of murder, that of the younger woman.
The Tribune kept silent while the rumor was being spread, and later denied; but now that it is proven Mendenhall is actually working for a pardon and is admittedly seeking to overcome the protest of the women of the state against his release. The tribune declares that Mendenhall must not be released from the punishment of his crime.
“Let justice be tempered with mercy” will be urged. True, but there is always to remain, justice. Justice demanded of Mendenhall his life in explanation of this bloody crime; Mercy stepped in and spared that life for the very purpose which seems to have been attained by him – repentance for his sin; but Mercy stops short of defeating the lawful ends of Justice, and to pardon him would be to set at defiance Justice and to encourage hope in criminal breasts that no matter how dastardly the crime, a pardon will come upon showing that the prisoner is repentant. – Tampa Tribune.

DIVERSION ORDER HITS AT FLORIDA

They declare that Florida, requiring only 25 to 36 hours for the movement of it products east or west, should not be discriminated against under a ruling made to fit other states which require from five to seven days to reach their markets and establish a diverting point.

J. F. Thomas, vice-president of the Saver-Thomas Co., fruit and vegetable shippers, Jacksonville, also left to attend the informal hearing and will confer with Florida, Mississippi, and Tennessee representatives prior to entering the hearing on Tuesday and the preliminary conference on Monday next between interested growers and shippers.
Mr. Thomas will represent at this hearing the interests of several Florida shippers.
Marshall & Bell, attorneys, Washington, D. C., will represent the Florida interests who have membership in the American Fruit & Vegetable Shipping Association, with headquarters at Chicago, Ill. Memberships of the Florida growers and shippers in the American Fruit And Vegetable Shipping Association is as follows: Nix & Bugbee, Hastings; Chase & Co., and Sayer-Thomas Co., Jacksonville; R. O.

SIX KINDS OF SAFETY
Have you every paused to consider the safety of the bank where you deposit your money?
The first consideration is the capital, which should be ample to meet the requirements of the community the bank is to serve.
The next question to consider is the officers in charge. They should be men of experience, high character and successful. Without men of ability no institution can succeed.
Then there is the question of confidence. The public should have confidence in the officers and in the bank.
These three principles determine the success of a bank.
We adopted these principles in the outset of our career and we expect to live up to this high standard and increase our usefulness to the community as the years go by.
We offer you:
1st: Large capital and working reserve
2nd: Trained men in charge – men of several years experience.
3rd: The confidence of the public, which is proven by the daily addition to our line of depositors.
4th: Protection by two examinations each year by the state banking department. Two audits each year by an independent recognized public audit company and two sworn statements submitted to the state comptroller by the cashier, giving the bank’s condition in detail. All of which insures regular, systematic and thorough operation of the bank.
5th: The advice of a competent board of directors, who meet with the officers regularly each month and advise them as to the operation of the bank.
6th: Insurance of all deposits every day of the year. This is a protection not commonly found in banks and is an absolute protection for your funds, in addition to all the other usual safeguards.
These are reasons why you should do business with us, and we believe that no bank can offer better inducements.
PEOPLES BANK OF SANFORD. We want your business.

WINTER PARK LAD IS RUN OVER BY A TRUCK AND NECK IS BROKEN
WINTER PARK, Nov. 22 –
As the result of a broken neck, due to being run over by a heavy truck, James Arthur Stephens, the 14-year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Stephens, is dead. The accident occurred Saturday afternoon at the corner of England and Park streets.
The lad, who was riding a bicycle, swung sharply around the corner of England street into Park street, directly in front of an oncoming truck. The lad became confused and attempts by the driver to avoid a collision were of no avail.
The injured boy was taken to a nearby doctor’s office and upon examination was found that his neck was broken and the boy died fifteen minutes later.
A coroner’s jury rendered a verdict of death due to an unavoidable accident, absolving the driver from all blame.
Mr. Stephens and family are new residents of Winter Park, having moved here from Georgia a few weeks ago.

CIRCUS PARADE A MIGHTY PAGEANTRY
When the circus’ glad-voice calliope pipes forth on the street tomorrow at 10:30, starting the parade over the usual route there will be many spectators on the curbstones to cry “Welcome to our city” to Big Zulu, the skyscraper elephant and the lesser members of the two elephant herds. It will be the finest circus parade that has been gotten off the front steps and sidewalks for an age.
The first thing to dazzle the eyes is the band wagon in the lead with its ten dapple grays. Dotted here and there down the rest of the line are other bands, chimes and calliopes. There are elephants, camels, ponies and high-stepping thorough-breds. In all there are 200 all prize winners from the world’s prize stock shows.
The menagerie cages are open, displaying all sorts of creatures from jungle and plain; beautiful tableaux wagons and floats – all resplendent in gold and glitter – are interspersed in the lineup. Taken as a whole the Sparks Circus parade is a thing of beauty and well worth seeing.
The performance tomorrow afternoon begins at 2 o’clock and in the evening at 8 o’clock, the doors opening at 1 and 7 to permit an inspection of the menagerie and horse fair for which this circus is famous.

Don’t worry about the outcome of the reconstruction period. The way to get through any depression is to look at things on the bright side and when money is tight spend less. If you cannot afford this thing and that thing that is really unnecessary cut it out until you can afford it. The world would be better off if put on a cash basis and each one was made to pay for what they obtained at the time they obtained it. And the world is coming to this period in a few short years. We are all spending more than we are able to spend. The financial situation is summed up in an article in this issue.

Now is the time to advertise. From this week on until the last horn blows new year’s day there will be a stream of shoppers in and out of the city and they will come here if you advertise and bring them in. If you bring them here they will buy, for Sanford merchants have the goods but unless you advertise even your own people will go to some other town that advertises and gets them by the prices. There never was a time when advertising would get you such sweeping results. And our subscribers are patronizing the merchants who display their wares in the Daily and Weekly Herald. Don’t forget that.

TELLING EVERYTHING
The editor is popularly supposed to see everything, hear everything, know everything and publish everything that is going on.
But sometimes he doesn’t see it – doesn’t want to see it – because, being an editor and trained to weigh all angles of every question, he knows that it is better for the community if he does not see it.
There are many things the editor does not publish because they contain no element of news, are distressing to many innocent people, and their publication could serve no good purpose.
Sometimes the editor is criticized for his forbearance, but at least some of his critics do not stop to remember that possibly the paper is just as forbearing regarding an incident or two of their own lives.
There are many things to be considered before putting it in cold type.

MORE PRAISE FOR PRESS
Small city dallies and the country weekly press of Florida may become affected with what is vulgarly known as the “swell head” if the words of praise heaped upon them continue. However, that may be, it is with pardonable pride that the press of Florida may consider itself just a jump or two ahead of the press of any other state, population considered. Further commendation for the small town press is given by the Jacksonville Metropolis, which says:
“when the editors of large dallies advocate state and national policies which later are overwhelmingly defeated by the people, it is indicative that something vitally essential has been omitted from their arguments; for after all is said, the press is one of the three most powerful institutions in our government. Its strength is based on the power of suggestion and if this strength loses its virility, then there is reason to begin searching for causes.
“But that is only a preface to the subject. The editor of the small city daily or the town weekly is not carried to extremes by his own ideas. He is closely associated with his people; he is at all times susceptible to their opinions; his hand is never removed from the public pulse. The enthusiasm and the throbs of the community are a part of his being. That is the vital essential!
“To the men of the neighborhood he is “Bill” or “Tom” or “Frank.” They drop by his shop, discuss the issues of the day with him, criticize his sheet, praise it, offer suggestions that oftentimes are practical, more often impractical but suggested in a spirit of real friendship; and after they are gone, he sits down to his typewriter, and unconsciously perhaps his expressions are rationalized and made more solid by the association of ideas.
“Florida has more high class small city dailies and town weeklies than any state in the union. These papers wield a strong and wholesome influences for they are accurate reflections of the existing conditions and pulsate with the many phases of local environment.
“Another happy feature of the Florida papers of that their editors have the courage of convictions. They do not evade issues. They either defend or attack them. It is a tendency in some states among editors of this class to refrain from participation in local affairs other than by treating the subject as news matter, most of which is packed on the front page, and the inside section is filled with “boiler-plate.” But happily this is not the case in Florida. The editors maintain the editorial pages for a constructive purpose, and in preparing copy usually they toss the gloves aside.
“This state has a wonderful institution in its press. The radical element is confined to a minority and is completely overshadowed by the constructive contemporaries.
It would be a blessing to the ‘big league’ editors if they could drop from their high horses into the companionship and confidence of those moving about them, as long since their brothers of less self-importance have done. Then true the large dailies, in proportion, would be as powerful as the small dailies and weeklies.”

AN EXPERIMENT IN CO-OPERATIVE SLAUGHTERING
Florida has many thousand cattle grazing on millions of unoccupied acres. The cattle owners have claimed and been granted special privileges, against which many truckers, farmers and town residents are complaining and protesting. Still, not withstanding their privilege, the stockman have grievances of their own, among the most prominent of which are: First, the low price of meat on the hoof. Second, the high price of meat off the hoof.
They might take a lesson from the cattle growers of a county in South Dakota, who likewise got tired of selling their stock to the packers at a low price, and buying it back as beef at a high price. Those South Dakota stockmen decided it would be better to sell to themselves, and buy from themselves, and they formed what they called a community meat ring, with that end in view. The results are given below, and show what can be accomplished by co-operation. Florida stockmen can do the same if they will, and by doing so render a valuable service to the community, and secure a profit to themselves, which now goes to foreign packers.

PAID FINE IN PENNIES
Albert Dorner paid the fine of George Devaux in pennies this morning in police court. Young Devaux was riding on top of the cars coming into Sanford last night from Jacksonville as he was short on money and wanted to get to Plant City to join his mother? He was arrested here for taking the outside of the car instead of the inside and Albert took him under the wing and fixed him up so he could proceed on his way rejoicing. Albert plays this penny gag on the court whenever he gets the chance but he does not perturb either the Judge Maines or Chief Speer as they are perfectly willing to take the money as long as Albert wishes to shell it out whether it is on pennies or in dollars and with all of it Albert has a big heart and is always doing something for somebody somewhere.

We admire the fight that the Palatka News and the Sanford Herald are making to force free bridges in this state. They are beginning at home with their own sections in an effort to abolish the toll bridges and if necessary will carry the fight to the end of having the county construct another bridge. This business of charging people money to cross a public throughfare, just because there is no other way around it, is an injustice and when a stranger comes into the state and meets with such a hold-up, he don’t get a very favorable impression. Perhaps that is one reason that so many people have in the past known more about the east coast of Florida than the west. – Lakeland Star.

FINANCIAL LEADERS SEE HOPEFUL SIGNS AHEAD IN RECONSTRUCTION PERIOD.
No Long Depression Looked For In the South.
FOLLOWING LETTERS
FROM FLORIDA BANKERS ARE INTERESTING AND MOST HOPEFUL.
Financial leaders of the South do not look upon the present period of deflation and re-adjustment as a national disaster. On the contrary they consider it an inevitable process, which is the necessary preparation for sound growth and prosperity. They do not expect a prolonged depression and some of them predict, quite definitely, a turn for the better with the beginning of the spring season.
A number of men eminent in business and finance have expressed such views in letters to Governor M. B. Wellborn of the Federal Reserve Bank written in reply to the following letter from him:
“My Dear Sir: In a period of readjustment, which is always accompanied by inconvenience, strain and some losses, it is a great help to the people if they are animated by a courageous, cheerful and patient spirit, with a disposition toward mutual helpfulness and co-operation. In such a crisis it is to them what morale is to the soldier and brings the same splendid results.
“The superb spirit which animated our people during the war, nerved our soldiers for every conflict and made them cheerful under hardship and suffering will bring us safely and triumphantly through these trying times.
“In order to cultivate such a spirit I would like to send out broadcast over the district some brief but strong statements by leading men whom the people will hear and follow. Let us crystalize a public sentiment that will meet the emergency in a manner credible to the South and the nation. Our section has been very prosperous for the past few years, and surely it is in good condition to meet the present time.
“To this end I will be pleased to have from you at your earliest convenience a letter expressing your views on the situation and the best way to meet it.”
The replies came from the states composing the sixth Federal Reserve District - Alabama, Florida, Georgia, part of Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee.
In Florida, where they have a succession on cash crops of fruits and vegetables, reinforced by the phosphate industry, the problem of financing the cotton crop is hardly felt, and as prices of vegetables and fruits have been good, the State is in a comparatively comfortable financial condition.
Without exception the writers of these letters express a feeling of confidence and hopefulness. With a clear view of the situation, facing its difficulties frankly, they manifest calmness, courage and strength, with a cheerful confidence in the ability of the people to meet and solve their problems.
Several of them emphasize the fact that with larger resources and greater reserve power the South, like the rest of the country, is greatly strengthened by the Federal Reserve System, which enables sound business to pass safely through a trying period, which, under our former inelastic financial system, might have resulted in disaster.
It is a noteworthy fact that Mr. Mason Smith, of New Orleans, one of the largest cotton men in the South, who has to deal with the financial problem of that crop, takes a hopeful view of the situation. It is also worthy of note that several of our leading financiers express the opinion that the period of deflation is nearing its end, and one of the most eminent of them, Dr. P. H. Saunders, a leading financier of New Orleans, predicts that this process will be practically completed in the South by March first, and that (continued on page six).

Increased space is demanded in every department, and particularly in buildings devoted to the displays of livestock and poultry. One successful poultry breeder will exhibit 40 varieties alone while national and international champion cattle and swine, bred in Florida, will be presented.
The directors have contracted for the most novel free amusement acts yet shown in Florida and the Johnny J.

In every feature the Fair promises to surpass those of former years.

LETTUCE SHIPPED OUT FROM SANFORD BRING GOOD PRICE
Sanford shipping ten cars daily now.
The lettuce season is on now in full blast and the markets promise to be getting better all this week or especially before Thanksgiving as all the world wants Sanford lettuce for the big day.
There were fifteen cars of lettuce shipped out Saturday making a total for the week of eighty cars which is a fine record for the first week of the movement. There will probably be twenty out today and the price is said to be very good although just what it is bringing in New York is problematical, some saying it is high and it must be for it is bringing $2.50 here for fancy stuff.
If the weather remains cool Sanford growers will make a fine thing out of their lettuce this season, probably more than ever before.

REPUBLICANS WILL MAKE MORE PIES
LOOK LIKE THEY WILL OUST EVERY DEMOCRATIC OFFICE HOLDER
(by P. H. McGowan)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 22-
Gossipy political Washington is pulsating and all agog over contemplated changes in the governmental changes when the Harding administration takes hold of the federal business on March 4, but already plans are not only being discussed, but in some instances are well under way for “firing” democratic office holders. They will be supplanted by faithful from the Republican fold. This gossip covers the white house, the senate, the house of representatives and every government department and bureau, big and little, in and out of Washington.
In plain words, if you are a Democrat and have failed to hold down your place with some kind of double locked contrivance, just back on the farm or in the village store, for that is the immediate objective of many a thousand democrat in the very near future. It is not only true but indicates at the same time that the republicans are taking cognizance of the fact that for the next four years they are to be the proprietors of the mammoth federal pie counter at Washington.
Incoming Republican senators and house members have already passed the word out along the line that they mean business; everything from the president’s executive order of 1917, whereby all postmasters were placed under civil service rules down to the various departmental places in Washington are to be recognized, this organization to be for the principal purpose of putting the G.O.P. in and the democrats out of business.
The Republicans assert that the order of the Wilson administration just referred to will be revoked and the way opened to replace thousands of Democratic postmasters with Republicans.
The establishment of the plan whereby any employ who has charges made against him will be given a hearing to see the evidence against him is almost a certainty.
It is being circulated here that a majority of the postal clerks now in the service in the recent election worked openly against the Democratic ticket and for the Republicans. It is said that many of the officials and no small part of the personnel of the post office employees over the country have been at war with the postmaster general and, as a result, they refused to support Cox and Roosevelt. It is now being said that the Republican chiefs, having had support of the big army of postal employees, want to see them satisfied.
Representative Martin M. Madden of Chicago, the Illinois member of the house, who openly declares that he sees no objection to the same schools for white and colored pupils, the same street cars for the two races, the general use of pullman sleepers and dining cars for negroes along with white people, and that he has no use in any way for anything savoring of a “Jim Crow” law is the chairman of the house committee on post offices. With the leading men on the Democratic side of this committee defeated in the recent election landslide it will be easy sailing for Madden, with his Republican colleagues, to bring out of the committee almost any radical bills they may desire. John A. Moon, of Tennessee, was one of the southern members who fought the democrats’ battles, but now that will fall on the shoulders of Congressman Bell of Georgia, who will become the ranking Democratic member of the post office committee.
The general postal situation indicates that with a Republican postmaster-general, and with both the

Fargo, N.D., Nov. 22 -
Dr. E. F. Ladd, first U.S. Senator elected as a candidate of the Non-partisan League announced here that his first aim in Congress will be to promote a better system for marketing the grain and other food products of the farm.
“It is a serious problem that faces congress,” Dr. Ladd said. “Something must be done and within the next few years if we are to save the farming industry from demoralization. Even now the most of the men left on the farm are middle aged and elderly – the younger men are looking for greater opportunities.
“I believe that dealing in futures on shorts – selling grain in which the seller had an equity, which never existed and which will never be delivered is a species of gambling which does not stabilize prices or benefit the producer or consumer. It is a matter which every legislator ought to study until he has a just comprehension of it and then consider whether it is not worthy of his attention.
“The co-operative movement must go hand in hand with helpful legislation in improving the situation. Farmers must come to own their buying and selling organizations.
“If legislation is passed making funds from federal reserve banks and federal land banks available to these organizations farmers will be able to hold their grains until they are needed instead of dumping them on the market at the end of the harvest.”
Dr. Ladd added that effort should be made to bring a better school system into rural districts and give the farm children the same children the same chances for education as hold in towns and cities.

SHIPPING BOARD PROBE REACHES HIGH PLACES HITS WILSON’S FAMILY
Banker Who Shared In Deal Names President’s Brother
SAID TO BE A LOAN
BUT NEVERTHELESS IT LOOKS LIKE BAD BUSINESS IN THE BOARD.
New York, Nov. 22.
Allegations tending to implicate men now and formerly connected with the United States Shipping board with alleged collusion in securing contracts for a ship building firm, were made Saturday by Tucker K. Sands, a witness before the Walsh committee investigating shipping board affairs.
The men named and alleged to have participated in a distribution of more than $30,000 were R. W. Bolling, brother-in-law of President Wilson and who later became treasurer of the shipping board; Lester Sisler, formerly secretary of the board; Jno. W. Cranor, a representative of the Downey Shipbuilding Company and Sands himself. He testified that he received money in the form of notes, some of which he discounted and at different times described payments to Boiling and Sisler as both “payments” and “loans”. In another part of his testimony he asserted that this money was to be understood as a commission to him for securing a loan from the bank to the shipbuilding company, with which the witness was then connected.
The testimony of Sands was preceded by that of Alfred W. McCann, a reporter for the New York Globe, who swore he had secured from Mr. Sands an affidavit detailing the entire transaction. McCann further testified that when he took the affidavit to Sands for him to sign, he declined to do so on advise of his attorney. Previous to submitting the affidavit for Sands’ signature, however, McCann said he had taken the document to the shipping board and had it photostated. One of these copies carrying notations in what was testified to be Sands’ handwriting and which Sands afterwards testified to being ‘correct except that some of the facts may be a little different” was presented by McCann in evidence. The document, however, was not made a part of the stenographer’s minutes of the meeting.
In the course of questioning by Chairman Walsh and Congressman Kelly, Sands said he did not think Bolling ever got a cent from anybody for aiding to get a contract – that money given him a “loan.”
Sands, who is president of the First National Bank, Washington, testified that it was “his understanding” that $2,400 he loaned Bolling against his note and of which Bolling has already paid back $300, was Bolling’s share of the $40,000 bribe.”
Bolling’s share of the money, Mr. Sands said he understood, was to have been $6,200, but that Bolling did not take the “balance” between it and the $1,800 loaned him.
At another time he stuck to a statement that Bolling was to get his share of the transaction – that he “gave Slater $5,000 – and that he had loaned Sisler for one of his companions $5,000 on his note, which note he still has. He said he had never had a controversy with Bolling and was on friendly terms with him. He also mixed into his testimony details of a purchase by him from Bolling of a lot for $900.
Sands testified he was now under indictment for “allowing a company to overdraw – a shipping company, in which I was interested.”
He testified that he was then connected with the Commercial National Bank of Washington, “its cashier.” He also testified he had endeavored without success to secure Mr. bolling’s influence to have this case settled.

LLOYD-GEORGE GIVES VIEWS ON VARIOUS PROBLEMS
LONDON, Nov. 20.
David Lloyd-George in his address at the lord mayor’s banquet at the Guild hall last night discussed briefly and pointedly various problems with which the government is dealing. He plunged immediately into foreign affairs and appealed for the patience, for faith in the world settlement, declared that the highest wisdom demanded that prejudices and dislikes be kept under control of Europe to be saved from, becoming a welter pf raging hatreds.
Referring to the “questions between Germany and the allies,” Mr. George said that the real test of German sincerity was disarmament, and be added, “the report I have to give on the subject is very satisfactory.”
“The German army is rapidly being reduced to 100,000. There are still too many rifles at large in Germany, but they are a greater menace to Germany’s internal peace than to Germany’s neighbors.”
Another important point said the premier, was reparations. “Germany is prepared to submit certain proposals for the liquidation of her obligations,” he continued, “and personally I am pleased with them. They will be considered at the conferences and it is satisfactory to note that Germany realizes that her first duty is to repair the devastation the German armies wrought.
“I wish I could speak as hopefully of the Russian problem, where we have to do with men professing the ridiculous, crazy creed of Bolshevism, who unfortunately fail to realize how important it is they should respect their obligations.
Speaking of the Irish question the premier said:
“Unless I am mistaken, by the steps we have taken, we have murder by the throat. Do not pay too much attention to detailed accounts of disturbances and what they call the horrors of reprisals given out by partisans, who slur over the horrors of murder. There will be no real peace, no conciliation whilst this murder conspiracy is scattered.
“We are getting the right sort of men and are dispersing the terrorists. The government will seek further powers, if necessary to deal with the situation. If it is war, as the terrorists say, then they cannot complain if the government employs some of the rules of war against them.”

CAMPERS RETURN
The party composed of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Purden, Mr. and Mrs. S. M. Lloyd, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Smith and little daughter, Evelyn, Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Holly, Mr. and Mrs. R. S. Holly and Robert Holly returned late last night from camp N. N. N. at the ranch on the Econlockhatchee and they had a grand time. They used the ranch house for sleeping quarters and cooked out in the yard at the big camp fire. Henry Purden and Don Smith were the champions in the fishing line taking a fine string of specked perch and trout and they divided honors in the hunting line with Reginald Holly and about fifty squirrels were brought into camp while there. Ralph Wight and Bob Kennedy happened along for dinner and swelled the larder with a brace of ducks and some snipe and they were such good fellows they were made to stay over for supper.
Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Hand and Mr. and Mrs. Archie Betts came out for Sunday dinner bringing a big basket of lunch and they found the table piled high with everything in the game line and had a big Sunday dinner of baked duck, fried squirrel and snipe and fish and everything. The party had glorious weather and enjoyed the trip so much that the ladies are importuning their husbands to take them again about Thanksgiving time and maybe the camping idea will become a permanent thing. The camp was named the N. N. N. camp for reasons known only to those who were there and while it is not a permanent name the next camp will have to go some if there is any more enjoyment than the first one. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Lawson could not go on the trip as Mr. Lawson was taken ill at the moment but he loaned the party his truck and the only drawback was the fact that the Lawsons had to stay home at the last minute.
The camp also had a mascot in the shape of a stray fox terrier who was promptly named “Doodles” in honor of one of the ladies. S. M. Lloyd and R. J. Holly qualified as first class camp cooks and they can cook flap jacks and fry squirrels with the best of them now. In fact everybody in camp was on the job and the boys think it is fine to have the girls along to show them how to really cook ducks as they should be cooked. Henry Purden is also recommended to anyone wanting a good truck driver and cook combined although at present he is very busy at his old job with the A. C. L. Railway.

THE PEOPLE WILL NOT STAND FOR IT.
It has been publicly denied that John J. Mendenhall, how serving a life sentence for the murder of Mrs. Charles Eliot, of this city, and still under indictment for the murder, at the same time of her daughter, Susie Eliot, will seek, or is seeking a pardon. This public denial came following the united protest of the women’s clubs of the states after a “rumor” got cut that application would be made for executive clemency prior to Jan. 1, 1920.
When we see what the mere rumor applying for a pardon for Mendenhall has done, what will be the result in Florida when the application for the pardon is published? The Tribune does not believe there would be housing accommodations enough in Tallahassee to take care of those who would flock to the capital protesting against the pardoning of this man, found guilty of the most cold-blooded spectacular murder of the elder woman and who still has hanging over his head in case he should be pardoned, another charge of murder, that of the younger woman.
The Tribune kept silent while the rumor was being spread, and later denied; but now that it is proven Mendenhall is actually working for a pardon and is admittedly seeking to overcome the protest of the women of the state against his release. The tribune declares that Mendenhall must not be released from the punishment of his crime.
“Let justice be tempered with mercy” will be urged. True, but there is always to remain, justice. Justice demanded of Mendenhall his life in explanation of this bloody crime; Mercy stepped in and spared that life for the very purpose which seems to have been attained by him – repentance for his sin; but Mercy stops short of defeating the lawful ends of Justice, and to pardon him would be to set at defiance Justice and to encourage hope in criminal breasts that no matter how dastardly the crime, a pardon will come upon showing that the prisoner is repentant. – Tampa Tribune.

DIVERSION ORDER HITS AT FLORIDA
Holding that the new reconsignment and diversion rules of the interstate commerce commission give an unfair advantage to California and the rest of the long haul states, and discriminate against Florida, with its proximity to the great markets of the nation, representatives of Florida fruit and vegetable growers will formally protest to the commission against the decision in case No. 10,173.
They declare that Florida, requiring only 25 to 36 hours for the movement of it products east or west, should not be discriminated against under a ruling made to fit other states which require from five to seven days to reach their markets and establish a diverting point.
J. J. stowers, representing the shippers and growers’ associations of Florida, Mississippi and Alabama, left Jacksonville Friday to enter oral protest before the commerce commission, and many other representatives of Florida’s biggest shippers of fruits and produce will also appear, as Florida growers are intensely interested in the hearing.
E. D. Dow, traffic manager of the Florida Citrus Exchange, left Friday to attend it.
J. F. Thomas, vice-president of the Saver-Thomas Co., fruit and vegetable shippers, Jacksonville, also left to attend the informal hearing and will confer with Florida, Mississippi, and Tennessee representatives prior to entering the hearing on Tuesday and the preliminary conference on Monday next between interested growers and shippers.
Mr. Thomas will represent at this hearing the interests of several Florida shippers.
Marshall & Bell, attorneys, Washington, D. C., will represent the Florida interests who have membership in the American Fruit & Vegetable Shipping Association, with headquarters at Chicago, Ill. Memberships of the Florida growers and shippers in the American Fruit And Vegetable Shipping Association is as follows: Nix & Bugbee, Hastings; Chase & Co., and Sayer-Thomas Co., Jacksonville; R. O. Applegate, Jr., Miami; Nocattee Fruit Co., Nocattee; Standard Growers’ (Inc.), A. J. Nye, Dr. P Phillips Co., Orlando; American Fruit Growers

SIX KINDS OF SAFETY
Have you every paused to consider the safety of the bank where you deposit your money?
The first consideration is the capital, which should be ample to meet the requirements of the community the bank is to serve.
The next question to consider is the officers in charge. They should be men of experience, high character and successful. Without men of ability no institution can succeed.
Then there is the question of confidence. The public should have confidence in the officers and in the bank.
These three principles determine the success of a bank.
We adopted these principles in the outset of our career and we expect to live up to this high standard and increase our usefulness to the community as the years go by.
We offer you:
1st: Large capital and working reserve
2nd: Trained men in charge – men of several years experience.
3rd: The confidence of the public, which is proven by the daily addition to our line of depositors.
4th: Protection by two examinations each year by the state banking department. Two audits each year by an independent recognized public audit company and two sworn statements submitted to the state comptroller by the cashier, giving the bank’s condition in detail. All of which insures regular, systematic and thorough operation of the bank.
5th: The advice of a competent board of directors, who meet with the officers regularly each month and advise them as to the operation of the bank.
6th: Insurance of all deposits every day of the year. This is a protection not commonly found in banks and is an absolute protection for your funds, in addition to all the other usual safeguards.
These are reasons why you should do business with us, and we believe that no bank can offer better inducements.
PEOPLES BANK OF SANFORD. We want your business.

WINTER PARK LAD IS RUN OVER BY A TRUCK AND NECK IS BROKEN
WINTER PARK, Nov. 22 –
As the result of a broken neck, due to being run over by a heavy truck, James Arthur Stephens, the 14-year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Stephens, is dead. The accident occurred Saturday afternoon at the corner of England and Park streets.
The lad, who was riding a bicycle, swung sharply around the corner of England street into Park street, directly in front of an oncoming truck. The lad became confused and attempts by the driver to avoid a collision were of no avail.
The injured boy was taken to a nearby doctor’s office and upon examination was found that his neck was broken and the boy died fifteen minutes later.
A coroner’s jury rendered a verdict of death due to an unavoidable accident, absolving the driver from all blame.
Mr. Stephens and family are new residents of Winter Park, having moved here from Georgia a few weeks ago.

CIRCUS PARADE A MIGHTY PAGEANTRY
When the circus’ glad-voice calliope pipes forth on the street tomorrow at 10:30, starting the parade over the usual route there will be many spectators on the curbstones to cry “Welcome to our city” to Big Zulu, the skyscraper elephant and the lesser members of the two elephant herds. It will be the finest circus parade that has been gotten off the front steps and sidewalks for an age.
The first thing to dazzle the eyes is the band wagon in the lead with its ten dapple grays. Dotted here and there down the rest of the line are other bands, chimes and calliopes. There are elephants, camels, ponies and high-stepping thorough-breds. In all there are 200 all prize winners from the world’s prize stock shows.
The menagerie cages are open, displaying all sorts of creatures from jungle and plain; beautiful tableaux wagons and floats – all resplendent in gold and glitter – are interspersed in the lineup. Taken as a whole the Sparks Circus parade is a thing of beauty and well worth seeing.
The performance tomorrow afternoon begins at 2 o’clock and in the evening at 8 o’clock, the doors opening at 1 and 7 to permit an inspection of the menagerie and horse fair for which this circus is famous.

Don’t worry about the outcome of the reconstruction period. The way to get through any depression is to look at things on the bright side and when money is tight spend less. If you cannot afford this thing and that thing that is really unnecessary cut it out until you can afford it. The world would be better off if put on a cash basis and each one was made to pay for what they obtained at the time they obtained it. And the world is coming to this period in a few short years. We are all spending more than we are able to spend. The financial situation is summed up in an article in this issue.

Now is the time to advertise. From this week on until the last horn blows new year’s day there will be a stream of shoppers in and out of the city and they will come here if you advertise and bring them in. If you bring them here they will buy, for Sanford merchants have the goods but unless you advertise even your own people will go to some other town that advertises and gets them by the prices. There never was a time when advertising would get you such sweeping results. And our subscribers are patronizing the merchants who display their wares in the Daily and Weekly Herald. Don’t forget that.

TELLING EVERYTHING
The editor is popularly supposed to see everything, hear everything, know everything and publish everything that is going on.
But sometimes he doesn’t see it – doesn’t want to see it – because, being an editor and trained to weigh all angles of every question, he knows that it is better for the community if he does not see it.
There are many things the editor does not publish because they contain no element of news, are distressing to many innocent people, and their publication could serve no good purpose.
Sometimes the editor is criticized for his forbearance, but at least some of his critics do not stop to remember that possibly the paper is just as forbearing regarding an incident or two of their own lives.
There are many things to be considered before putting it in cold type.

MORE PRAISE FOR PRESS
Small city dallies and the country weekly press of Florida may become affected with what is vulgarly known as the “swell head” if the words of praise heaped upon them continue. However, that may be, it is with pardonable pride that the press of Florida may consider itself just a jump or two ahead of the press of any other state, population considered. Further commendation for the small town press is given by the Jacksonville Metropolis, which says:
“when the editors of large dallies advocate state and national policies which later are overwhelmingly defeated by the people, it is indicative that something vitally essential has been omitted from their arguments; for after all is said, the press is one of the three most powerful institutions in our government. Its strength is based on the power of suggestion and if this strength loses its virility, then there is reason to begin searching for causes.
“But that is only a preface to the subject. The editor of the small city daily or the town weekly is not carried to extremes by his own ideas. He is closely associated with his people; he is at all times susceptible to their opinions; his hand is never removed from the public pulse. The enthusiasm and the throbs of the community are a part of his being. That is the vital essential!
“To the men of the neighborhood he is “Bill” or “Tom” or “Frank.” They drop by his shop, discuss the issues of the day with him, criticize his sheet, praise it, offer suggestions that oftentimes are practical, more often impractical but suggested in a spirit of real friendship; and after they are gone, he sits down to his typewriter, and unconsciously perhaps his expressions are rationalized and made more solid by the association of ideas.
“Florida has more high class small city dailies and town weeklies than any state in the union. These papers wield a strong and wholesome influences for they are accurate reflections of the existing conditions and pulsate with the many phases of local environment.
“Another happy feature of the Florida papers of that their editors have the courage of convictions. They do not evade issues. They either defend or attack them. It is a tendency in some states among editors of this class to refrain from participation in local affairs other than by treating the subject as news matter, most of which is packed on the front page, and the inside section is filled with “boiler-plate.” But happily this is not the case in Florida. The editors maintain the editorial pages for a constructive purpose, and in preparing copy usually they toss the gloves aside.
“This state has a wonderful institution in its press. The radical element is confined to a minority and is completely overshadowed by the constructive contemporaries.
It would be a blessing to the ‘big league’ editors if they could drop from their high horses into the companionship and confidence of those moving about them, as long since their brothers of less self-importance have done. Then true the large dailies, in proportion, would be as powerful as the small dailies and weeklies.”

AN EXPERIMENT IN CO-OPERATIVE SLAUGHTERING
Florida has many thousand cattle grazing on millions of unoccupied acres. The cattle owners have claimed and been granted special privileges, against which many truckers, farmers and town residents are complaining and protesting. Still, not withstanding their privilege, the stockman have grievances of their own, among the most prominent of which are: First, the low price of meat on the hoof. Second, the high price of meat off the hoof.
They might take a lesson from the cattle growers of a county in South Dakota, who likewise got tired of selling their stock to the packers at a low price, and buying it back as beef at a high price. Those South Dakota stockmen decided it would be better to sell to themselves, and buy from themselves, and they formed what they called a community meat ring, with that end in view. The results are given below, and show what can be accomplished by co-operation. Florida stockmen can do the same if they will, and by doing so render a valuable service to the community, and secure a profit to themselves, which now goes to foreign packers.

PAID FINE IN PENNIES
Albert Dorner paid the fine of George Devaux in pennies this morning in police court. Young Devaux was riding on top of the cars coming into Sanford last night from Jacksonville as he was short on money and wanted to get to Plant City to join his mother? He was arrested here for taking the outside of the car instead of the inside and Albert took him under the wing and fixed him up so he could proceed on his way rejoicing. Albert plays this penny gag on the court whenever he gets the chance but he does not perturb either the Judge Maines or Chief Speer as they are perfectly willing to take the money as long as Albert wishes to shell it out whether it is on pennies or in dollars and with all of it Albert has a big heart and is always doing something for somebody somewhere.

We admire the fight that the Palatka News and the Sanford Herald are making to force free bridges in this state. They are beginning at home with their own sections in an effort to abolish the toll bridges and if necessary will carry the fight to the end of having the county construct another bridge. This business of charging people money to cross a public throughfare, just because there is no other way around it, is an injustice and when a stranger comes into the state and meets with such a hold-up, he don’t get a very favorable impression. Perhaps that is one reason that so many people have in the past known more about the east coast of Florida than the west. – Lakeland Star.
