s4Our vegetable growers" says the lar
lahassee FT0rididR, shave so many annoy
ing disadvantages to contend with in the
matter Of transportation that they should
make a united effort to secure more re-
liable conveyance for their products, even
if they have to seek other markets. A
number of shipments from Tallahassee
some of them perishable vegetables, 100
have failed to 90 through on time. Either
the railroad did not deliver them at Sa-
vannah in time for the steamer, or II they
were so delivered, the vessel left them at
that mort. one shipment was nine days in
Getting through. and others were forward
Cd without the authority or knowledge Of
the shipper. by the Atlantic Rail Coast
Line TO Norfolk, and thence to Baltimore
bv steamer, at an additional cost of about
50 per cent. for freight. There are radl-
cal defects to be corrected in transporta-
ton facilities. 1t is a simple matter Of
dollars and cents with truckmen. They
engage in the industry just as they would
enter into any other legitimate business
for the money there is in if. But as long
as the business is conducted as at pres
ent. with no improvement in transpOrta-
ton facilities. Middle Floridians will pur-
sue the industry at great disadvantage"
To avoid these annOyances in the future
the F7orididn urges organization on the
part OF the truck farmers of Middle
Florida and the adoption of other lines Of
transportation. Perhaps it would be well
for Savannah to look after her interests
in the matter, and see that her trade is not
drawn of to other points when she has
it in her power to present greatly supe-
rior facilities for rapid and safe transpOr-
tatiOn. both by sea and land.

An Unsusnected Danger.

Harrisburg (Pd.) PdtTtOt (DeDa).
1t is more than probable that before the
tariff question shall be finally settled il
will be carried into the courts. A duty
not laid for revenue, but for the purpose
of providing a bounty to any person or
class Of persons, is certainly not within
the purview of the Federal Constitution.
If, owing to its prOhibitOry character, no
revenue, or none to speak of, results from
any duty, the Supreme Court of the United
States is more than likely to declare it
unconstitutional. What, then, are Penn
sylvania manufacturers to expect if the
protective" idea should be attacked in
the United States courtsn Would not a
decision adverse to the principle on
which the present tariff is based upset
and destroy the entire fabric of "prOtec-
tiOnr' This is a peril of which the pro-
tected interests have apparently taken no
thought.

The tariff question is fundamental
question. We can but regard a man as
really but little of a Democrat in prin-
ciple who holds to the Hamiltonian dogma
of strong, centralized nation, and who
holds to the Republican doctrine Of an
unconstitutional, oppressive, high protec-
tive tariff. Such a man may vote for
Republican candidates, but in principle
he is nearer the latter than the former.

Mountain, on the line Of the Iron Noun

into better shape for quarrying purposes
it is proposed shortly to let off a charge of

1t is estimated that 10000 tons of rock
will be dIslodged and more or less broken

to the experiment that it is proposed to
run an excursion train from st. Louis to

Roscoe Conkling, in summing up for

suit in New York the other day, said that
his client had had an experience under

had occasionally told a friend that it
would be a good thing to do this or that,
and it had turned out that this was not
good thing to do. He ached, not so much
from what his friends said to him,
but from their manner of saying what
they said. More than this, he had some
times ached at the way his friends met
him in the street, or rather, when they
saw him coming, they crossed over the
way and did not meet him. COnkling had
better ape Butler and turn Democrat if
only for a season, to get his revenge.

from the top of his head to within a few inches
Of his ankles he was one mass of scabs, which

by friends or physicians was tried in vain.
Anopathy, homeopathy, herbs, roots, salt

done to eradicate the disorder seemed only to
aggravate it, and the chld's life became a
