Hillsboro, prosecuting. Judge
'Vhcdbee made an able charge to
:ho grand jury laying special
iorce on law enforcement and the
huty of each citizen to serve as
jurors regardless of business in
iwst. This is Judge Whedbee's
first appearance in Person and he
nas made a strong impression.
Up to this writing, Wednesday
morning, nothing of importance
has come up. The proceedings
will be given next week.

Misses Lillian Powell, of De Land

thought the time had come for a
change in the National adminis
tration, and they intended to
support the ticketnominated at
Baltimore.
The special newspaper articles
published, containing a few ex
tracts from letters written to
Governor Wilscn at Sea Girt,
show that the views of the cor
respondents of the candidate for
President duplicate those of the
candidate for Vice-President, and
that a very large proportion of
letters offering support are from
Republicans.
The correspondence that
comes io Chairman McCombs
and Democratic Headquarters
in New York is of the same tenor
and it comes from all parts of the
country, showing that the Demo
cratic candidates aDpeal both to
the popular imagination and to
the popular confidence, and that,
while the Democrats are united
in the support of the Democratic
; ticket, as never before in the life
of the younger men of the par
, ty, and the independent vote is
almost solid for Wilson and Mar
shall, there is a oreak in the Re
publican vote, heretofore unknown
in the history of that party. In
18&8 there was a bolt in the
Republican party of the Silver
Republicans, but that bolt did not
appreciably affect any state east
of the Mississippi River and as
the result showed was not large
enough to change the result in
any state west of the Mississippi,
with few exceptions.
This year the Republican party
is split and Republicans will
divide between Mr. Taft and Mr.
Roosevelt, that is, those who in
tend to vote for Wilson and Mar
shall: and there are many, who.
while preferring not openly to
join th? Democratic organization,
will furnish a vote which, added
to the Democratic vote of 1908,
Aill put the Democratic candidate
in the White House.
As one of 'many evidences of
the Republican trend to Wilson
and Marshall, the following edi
torial from the New York Press,
giving the result of a poll 'among
Republicans, is illuminating:
"Last week the editor of the
New York Press sent private let
ters to Republican voters, select
ed at random from readers on its
mail subscription lists 'and not
living in NewYork City or other
large cities, The main part of the
letter was: v
"For which of the following do
you intend to vote: Taft, Wilson,
Roosevelt?
"Are you in favor of . the plan
prosposed by the former , Presk
sident of breaking up the present
Republican party and forming a
new one? For whom did you
vote in 1908? x

party. Some of those' in the not

judgment, to do this to prevent
the Colonel from breaking up
their party. Some of those record

lamented his nomination, but
