THE PALATKA PRIMARY.

We are grieved to see some good
democrats carrying from the prima-
ry of yesterday fault-fnding dis
position. 1t is urged that printed
slate means nothing except a desire
to save voter the trouble of wri-
ting, and that every man could have
his own ticket printed if he liked.
The one question of interest to us
now is, whether the primary has
succeeded in sending to the CON
vention a representative delegation.
1t is at least surprising that some
names presented which have hith-
ertO been not without honor in
the party should have been passed
over to secure tbs insertion of 9th
ers who at least have no mark of
the harness or trace of the dust
which falls upon the real workers.
To the fat of democrats in conven-
ton assembled we bow gladly, ex-
cept when the judgment is obtained
by Objectionable methods or con-
tains DEGREES which we consider
morally wrong. In all matters of
choice as to men and measures we
acknowledge allegiance due to the
majority. To the final judgment
which may be rendered, we shall
hardly feel bound to enter appeal,
but the delegation elected on yes
terday has already aroused violent
opposition. We utter the warning
now, that no good will be done by
the exclusion of a large constituency
who have the right to demand recog-
milton, or by the political ostracism
of men who are conscientious demo
Gratis, and have a following which is
at least valuable in q county where
the margin is as narrow and change
able as ours. We harbor no i'll will
for previously conceived plans OF
carefully constructed "slates" for
those who do these things against
brethren will find themselves with
out honor in the happy family
which meets on the 18th prox. But
the democrats who allow any mo,
tive or purpose to exclude from theil
councils such veterans as Col. Pratt
Mr.. Peter Munroe and Rev. J. w.
Thomas, or such party warriors as
VIM. f. Forward and K. S. Grill
will find it hard to explain the oper,
ations of the caucus" to the voters
of Putnam county.

THE PHILADELPHIA TIMES, 1884.
THE TIMES will enter upon the new year
fore In its history-mOre widely read and
quoted, more heartily commended, and more
hercely criticized, with Il more complete or
ganlZatlOn, and an able ssOn of contribution
find with the same independence and fearless
Fess that has made it successful and powerful
On the past.
THE TINES has no party to follow, no candi-
dates to advance, but will meet every ISSUE
II has ever done, with consistent devotion to
the right, to honest government, and the pub
lie welfare. And, while maintaining its posi-
ton as the leading journal of Philadelphia, 10
will aim to be continually in the advance in all
that can add value to a newspaper
The value of a newspaper is not in its size or
display, but in the intelligence and care the
cOnCiseness and freshness with which il is
from all parts of the world, but all its dis
patches are carefully edited and condensed in
order to give the complete news Of the day in
the most concise and attractive shape, and with
it a large variety of entertaining and instruc-
tive reading The best writers at home and
abroad are employed to enrich its columns
and To make il q journal adapted hoth In the
busy man and to the leisure of the home cir
Gle, a welcome visitor to Intelligent and honest
taste
THE WEEKLY TIMES is altogether different
from the weekly newspapers of twenty years
ago. The day of those papers have gone by.
The telegraph and better local newspapers
everywhere, especially in the thriving centres
OF rural population, have made the old weekly
metropolitan newspaper unsatisf wing. Those
that cling TO their ancient usages have lost
their hold on our fOrward-mOving people: they
are but shadows of their former greatness ana
they have but a shadow Of their former power
Those papers have had their usefulness hut II
is gone: and, with it, they are going. too II
was not the fault of the papers: it was the i'm
provement of the country that brought about
the change. Men and women, wherever they
live, now require fresher news; and thev re-
quirC more than news.
THE WEEKLY TIMES gathers of the types OF
every passing week whatever has lasting in
terest to the people at large, and sets il before
them in such generosity of paper and print as

pie. That is what carried the state.
General Finley, Governor Walker,
Judge Baker, Colonel Daniel, Judge
Maxwell and hosts of others could
have done it. This is fully demon
strated by the fact that Lieutenant
Governor Hull outran and received
more votes than Governor Drew.
Drew was a mere fgure-head in the
canvas, as he was while playing
governor. His vetoes of railroad
bills for South Florida, his messages,
his letters-indeed, all of his public
documents were, if we are correctly
informed, written by other hands.
He never averaged, except during
the session of the Legislature, more
than probably one day in the week
at the capital. All of his work was
done by others. His administration
as compared with Bloxham's is as a
mole hill to mountain. Some per-
sons blame Bloxham for the DisstOn
sale; Governor Stearns, a republican
governor, and Governor Drew both
tried to make a similar sale. The
republicans cannot attack the sale,
for they re-nominated Stearns, know
ing his efforts to sell at the same
price. Governor Drew's friends can
not truthfully do so, for he tried to
make a similar sale to relieve the
fund. The only difference is that
Bloxham succeeded and Stearns and
Drew failed. The result of BlOx-
hams success has been the realiza-
ton of Florida's great success.
Compare her where she was in June,
1881, and where she is to-day; what
intelligent man would place her
back to her position when Bloxham
went into office? | am anxious to
have our prosperity continued. |
am not writing with a view to re-
nominate Bloxham. Why not give
us a new man? Pasco will not do.
He would be heavy load to carry
with grave doubts of success. There
is too much known against them
matters that have been held back,
but fatal in their effects.
Take such men as Judge King,
Judge Baker, Colonel Daniel, Gen
eral Barnes, General Perry Jldge
Maxwell, Judge Mitchell, or Others
of that stamp. Let the democracy
beware; there is danger ahead
Can't the democracy select one OF
the above named gentlemen, and
thus secure a fit successor to Blox-
ham, whose administration has been
the most successful that Florida ever
had? Either that, or give us Blox-
ham back. PROGRESS.

A Review OF Hon. p. T.. Bishops Com
ment on Governor Drew.

We take the following from an
article in the Times-Union of June
5th:
Mr.. Bishop even says 'Drew took
the State of Florida and made a
present of it to the Democratic par
ty." We have a high regard for
Mr.. Bishop, but he certainly draws
upon his imagination to an extraor-
binary degree.
But, says Mr.. Bishop, he present
ed the state to the democratic party.
The truth is, that the true people of
the state had become so much en-
ragged by radical and bayonet mis-
rule that they determined to carry
the state. Every man that could
raise his voice was upon the stump,
money was given freely by all, and
such men as Bishop and hundreds of
others, went over the state to stir
the people to a true realization of
their situation. The state executive
committee brought such speakers as
Ben. Hill and General Alpheus Ba-
ker into the state to arouse the peo-

'THE SUN
NEW YORK, 1884.


About sixty million copies of THE SUN have
gone out of our establishment during the past
twelve months.
If you were to paste end to end all the col
umns of all THE SUN printed aud sold last year
you would get Il continuous strip Of interesting
information, common sense wisdom, sound
doctrine, and sane wit long enough TO reach
from Printing House square to the top OF
Mount COpernicus in the moon, then back TO
Printing House square, and then three-quar-
tiers of the way back TO the moon again.
But THE sun is written for the inhabitants
of the earth; this same strip of intelligence
would girdle the globe twenty-seyen or
twenty-eight times.
If every buyer Of a copy of THE Sun during
the past year has spent only one hour over it,
and if his wife or his grandfather has spent
another hour, this newspaper in 1888 has af-
fOrdcd the human race thirteen thousand years
Of steady reading, night and day.
1t is only by little calculations like these that
you can form any idea of the circulation Of the
most popular of American newspapers, or Of
its influence on the opinions and actions Of
American men and women.
THE sun is and will continue to be, a news
paper which tells the truth without fear of
consequences, which gets at the facts no mat
ter how much the process costs, which presents
the news all over the world without waste Of
words and in the most readable shape, which
is working with all its heart for the cause Of
honest government, and which therefore be
HeyeS that the Republican party must go, and
must go IN this coming year OF our Lord, 1884
If you know The SUN. you like it already,
and you will read it with accustomed diligence
and profit during what is sure to be the most
interesting year in its history. If you do not
know THE-SUN, it is high time to get into the
sunshine.

came too, and went. But no "Ouida"
appeared. Finally the chagrined hostess
and her disappointed friends sat down
at table. At this moment the APP
parently belated "Ouida" hurried into
the dining-room. 1t was not until sew
eral days afterward that the rest of the
party learned that she had been the first
to arrive, and, having seated herself be-
hind the drawing-room door, had quiet
ly listened to her merciless dissection
by the ladies with whom she had
come to break bread.
