White Primary December 6, l%2
T P. Hudson, 1st ward,
R. E. Green, 2nd.ward.
M. M. Ham, 3rd.ward.
To the Citizens of Gainesville:
We find the statement being in
dustriously circulated that we are in
the race for Aldermen to antagonize
the Public School interests of Gaines
ville, and anonymous circulars are
being distributed insinuating that
our platform is: “No Schools. ”
In order that the public may be
broperly informed in regard to this
matter we say positively and un
equivocally that we do not oppose the
Public School interests, but to the con
trary the Public Schools shall have
our earnest and hearty support,
should we be elected.
Phis school question has been settled
and its injection into politics again is
unwise.
The people have voted $20,000 of
their money for the erection of a
School Building
We could not change this if we
would and would not if we could
This question has already been set
tled.
We are fin favor of eretcing
an up-to-date Public School building
on the site of the old College building
on Main street, the same not to cost
more than $20,000 and to be complet
ed by September i, 1903, ready for
the Fall term.
We only have this to say: We fa
vor whatever is best for our City and
if elected we shall use our best efforts
for the good of the entire commun
ity and the advancement and up
building of every section of our city
without fear or favor,
T. P. HUDSON, 1st Ward,
R. E. GREEN, 2nd Ward,
M. M. HAM, 3rd Ward.

Indian Boybood.
“What boy would not be an In
dian for awhile when he thinks of
the freest life in the world?” asks
the Iudian writer, Charles A East
man, in his book, “Indian Boy
hood.” Bat while Indian boys
have the freedom of the woods
they have a more severe training
than white boys, to fit them for
what their tribe believes to be the
duties of manhood. Mr. Eastman
thus recalls his own experience:
It seems a popular idea that
all the characteristic skill of the
Indian is instinctive and heredi
tary. This is a mistake. All the
stoicism and patience of the In
dian «re acquired traits, and con
tinued practice aloue makes him
master-of the art of woodcraft.
Physical training and dieting
were not neglected. I remember
that I was not allowed to have
warm beef soup or any warm
drink. The soup was for the old
men. General rules for the young
were never to take their food very
hot, nor to driok much water.
My uncle, who educated me up
to the time when I was fifteen
years of age, was a strict disciplin
arian and a good teacher. When
I left the teepee in the morning
he- would say, “Hakadah, look
closely to everything you see,”
and at evening, on my return, he
used often to catechize me for an
hour or so:
“On which of the trees is the
lighter-colored bark? On which
side do they have the most regular
branches?”
It was his custom to let me
name all the new birds that I had
seen during the day. I would
name them according to the color,
or the shape of the bill, or their
song, or the appearance and local
ity ot the nest; in fact, anything
about the bird that impressed me
as characteristic.
“Hakadah,” he would say to
me, “you oguhfc to follow the ex
ample of the shunktoeeha (the
wolf). Even wh *1 he is surprised,
and runs for his life, he will pause
to take ODe more look at you he-
fore he enters his final retreat. So
you must take a second look at
everything you see .”
All the boys were expected to
endure hardship without com
plaint. In savage warfare a young
man must, of course be an athlete
and used to undergoing all sorts
of privations. He must be able
to go without food and water for
two or three days without display
ing any weakness, or to run for a
day and a night without any rest.
He must be able to traverse a
pathless, wild country without
losing his way either in the day or
night. He cannot fall short in
any of these things if he aspires
to be a warrior.

I have been a great sufferer from dypepsia for about fifteen years, my trouble
being my liver, stomach and bowels, with terrible headaches. Lemon Eliia
cured me. My appetite is good, and I am well. I had taken a barrel of other
medicine, that done me no good.
