THE SPEAKERS INTHE PHOSPHATE CITY

The speaking began late Tuesdaynight in Dunnellon because the storesdo not close before 9 oclock but whenthe ball was started it rolled merrily-for three hours and accorded theStar reporter much pleasure to sayit was the most sympathetic and re-sponsive

¬

audience the candidates havestruck since tlTey started to cross thedesert of despair to the shores of hope-

C L Blttinger was the first speakerand consumed his fifteen minutes and-a little more He said he believed inall the agencies that go to make upthe procession of progress and pros-perity

¬

and that such advancementmeant taxesnot to be wasted butadministered in the Interest of thetaxpayers

That the voters of Dunnellon mightnot mistake his position he assuredthem thatone of the things that wouldconfront the legislature that is to beeiected and would legislate for thftstate for the next two years was thequestion of state prohibition and hefor one would vote to permit the sov-ereigns

¬

of the state to pass on thatvery important and vital question ifthey preferred state prohibition to lo ¬

cal option and in dQing this he wasconceding a right of free government-to those whose votes would eitherdominate the question and relegate foranother campaign

Mr Blttinger said he believed in thebest schools longest terms and bestteachers our school tax money couldsupply in good roads and the foster ¬

ing of that progressive spirit in keep ¬

ing faith with our Confederate vet ¬I

erans in liberal pensions not as anact of charity but as an obligation-and reward they had bravely honora ¬

bly and patriotically earnedIn other words he believed in the

people getting the worth of their taxesand if economy and savings could bemade along lines of the expenditureof said taxes to see it was done by thepublic servants who legislated for thepeople and those who disbursed them-

L S Light followed and he by We-

D Cam and their speeches wereidentically as those delivered on for-mer

¬

occasions except that Mr Lightnever once peeped as to how hestood on the prohibition question buthe had a plan to increase valuation 160million and reduce taxation or cutpresent taxation in two but failed totell his wrought up audience what wasthe secret of such a marvelous trans-formation Some think he proposes-to work a miracle convert every tax¬

payer in the state who will bring evpry item of hidden wealth from itshiding place and reveal it to the taxaEsessor and immediately the civicmillennium will dawn

The picture made Alfred Ayerseyes dance with joy for in the eightSears he has been searching for thishidden wealth he has signally failed tofind it and It has caused this popular-and efficient officer much poignantregret

Messrs H Wv Long and Bellpleaded for the county juhgeship theformer to be elected to the office andin this connection he related the factof making his first public speech madehi Ocala fortyeight years ago whichappeared ip the Star yesterday andhis service for the county in the pastand notwithstanding his advancedyears he was competent mentally asever for the position he sought

Judge Bell who has many friend3and supporters in Dunnellon follow-ed

¬

and spade a most pentinent talkwhich was received with favor and4

from the applause at the conclusion-of his remarks he was in the housp ofhis friends

The candidates for sheriff then tookthe stand J L Edwards first follow ¬

ed by C Y Miller J L Smoak andJohn P Galloway-

The candidate for tax assessor re-enacted the possum and persimmon-story but in this instance Phillipsleading stole all of Ayers thunder an1funny jokes aifc placed him at aslight disadvantage reiterating hewould employ no more boys in his of¬

fice to come up like Banquos ghost tosteal his daily bread but would em-ploy

¬

girls for clerical duties whbwould not aspire to his position

Messrs V W D Graham and E LCarney came next and as Mr Carneycame last he made a fine presentation-for himself

Then the candidates forcounty com-missioner

¬

from the fifth district MrDow Beck making his plea first andsaying he did not think Mr J Mi thews had done much for his con-stituents

¬

and spoke slightingly on thecondition of the roads in hisdistrict same being almost impassa-ble

¬

and he could not see how IrMccjild fulfill the promises he made thepeople of the fifth district as only afew cents belonged to the fund anddidnt see how the Dunnellon roadcontracted for could be paid

But Mr Carney assured Mr Beckthat some 30000 had been collectedsince the first of April and in addition-to this there would be 10000 in taxescollected this month making 40000and of which the road fund would re-

ceive¬

its share tMr J M Mathews the present in-

cumbent¬

of the office replied sayinghe had not only promised but fulfilledthose promises That he had secured-for Dunnellon two steel bridges oneacross the Withlacoochee river andone across Blue Run each costing 1600 that he secured the letting ofjiine miles of hard road from Dunnel ¬

lon toward Ocala and the contractors-were now energetically at work build-ing

¬

same So It did seem as if hispromises had been fulfilled for whichstatement he was heartily applaudedMrBen Freyermouth another candirdidAe was not present

Then came Profs Brinson and Er-

s<

f i 7 <Jrf < u f> 4 > > 7

win candidate for superintendent ofpublic instruction and both madegood talks especially Prof Brinsonwho had grasped the idea of whatshould constitute the qualifications ofthe incumbent of that important officeand how he should conduct himselfthe administration of his duties-

At this juncture Dr Griffith theDunnellon candidate for the legisla¬

ture appeared in the audience hehaving been called away to attend apatient early in the evening He saideverybody in Dunnellon knew him andhe would not weary them but prom-ised

¬

to serve them faithfully if hon-ored

¬

Mr Asher Frank aspirant for reg-istration

¬

officer was the last but notlease of the candidates and blushed-his thanks most gracefully Ikeyhas a lot of friends In Dunnellon whowill look out for him on election day

Dunnellon does things and the can-didates

¬

will appreciate this important-fact more fully after the 19th of May

GRUESOME MURDER MYSTERIES

Five Bodies Unearthed in Same YardWomen and Three Children Bijrnedto Death of Same Lot a Few paysAgoTwo Bodies Identified

Laporte md May 6One of themost gruesome murder mysterious ev-el unearthed in this section of thecountry came to light when the bodiesoi five persons all of them murdered-were found in the yard of the home ofMrs Belle Guinness who with threeof her children was burned to deathon the night of April 28

So far only two of the bodies haveteen identified These are AndreyHelgelein who came to this city fromMansfield S D for the purpose ofmarrying Mrs Guinness whose ac-quaintance

¬

he ImdSjnade through amatrimonial bureau The other is thatof Jennie Olson Guinness a Chicagogirl who had teen adopted by MrsGuinness The other bodies were thoseof a man and of two children Somany bones were missing in the lat ¬

ter two that it is not known whetherthey were male female None ofthem have been identified-

It is believed by the authorities thatGuy Lamphere who has been underarrest since the burning of the Guin-ness

¬

home on the charge of murder¬

ing Mrs guinness and her familycommitted the Helgelein crime Lamphere isa carpenter and the mannerin which the body of Helglein wasdismembered leads to the belief thatiLaS done by somebody familiarwith the use of a saw

In some quarters it is believed thatMrs Guinness may have known some ¬

thing of the murders of the five peo-ple

¬

There have been rumors tljatJennie Olson Guinness had knowledge-of the manner in which the first hus ¬

band of Mrs Guinness caine to hisdeath in Chicago-

It is known that Helgeleinhad loan-ed

¬

1500 to Mrs Guinness and thathe had another 1500 in his posses ¬

sion just prior to his death It is be ¬

lieved that he was killed by MrsGuinness or by Lamphere or by both-of them in order tO procUre the cashhe had and to avoid the necessity ofthe repaying of the loan he had made

Lamphere against whom a strongcase of circumstantial evidence exists-in connection with the burning of theGuinness home and the death of MrsGuinness and her three children denies-all knowledge of the bodies fdund to-

day It was current gossip howeverthat Lamphere was insanely jealous-of Mrs Guinness and of Helglein andit is well known that the woman stoodgreatly in f rofhim and had askedfor police protection-

The search by which the bodieswere found was instigated by JohnHelgelein the brother of Andrew whohas always believed that his brotherwas a murderer He noticed somerecehtly upturned earth in the yard anduggested to Sheriff Smutzer that anexcavation be made The body of hisbrother was dug up after a tyriefsearch
