Florida Condemned.


Among the thousands OF people
who have been benefited from com
ing to Florida, both in health and
purse, and who have made 1t their
home from necessity or choice, these
are the many who write their expert
ences favorable to the State, There
are others who exag gerateior the pur-
pose OF making money from sales OF
land and there are tther discomfort
ed persons who come here with the
expectation of finding an elysium
where orange groves can be made in
a year and they will be able to sit
down without working and find bread
ready for their mouths These lattel
people soon leave, grumbling at the
State and everything in it. They would
do the same wherever they went
and never become citizens that are
valued i'll any community. There are
wandering people all over the United
States, moving from place to place
and never satisfied TO locate in any.
