We are glad the Times-Union so
changes its position on "Crime and
the Press" that we are able to agree
with that journal. ssThe Press is
again harmonious, and now let's all
join hands and expose the officers
whose laxity has enabled the Grimm
ais to escape. Let the jury try the
prisoner, but let the press and peo-
pie sit in open judgment on the of
ficers who are paid to execute the
laws. High or low, discussion need
terrify only the guilty, and the good
name Of Florida demands that the
responsibility should be rightly
placed. VIII our exchange aid the

The Philadelphia Times.
1855
THE PHIIADEIPHTA TI1Es, ISL

THE PHIIlA DEIPHTA TIMES, 1884,
THE TIMES viii enter upon the new year
stronger and more prosperous than ever be
fore in its hiStOTy-mOrc widely read and
quoted, more heartily commended and more
herccly criticized, with q more complete or
ganization, and an able ssoH of contributions
and with the same independence ana fearless
ness that has made it successful and powerful
in the past.
THE TINES has no party to follow, no candi-
dates to advance, but viii meet every issue. as
it 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, it
will aim to be continually in the advance in all
that can add value to a newspaper.
The value of newspaper is not in its size or
display, but in the intelligence and care. the
cOnciseneSs and freshness with which it is
edited. THE TIMES spends lavishly for news
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 i'm
the most concise and attractive shape, and with
it a large variety of entertaining and iuStTuc-
tive reading. The best writers at home and
abroad are employed TO enrich its columns,
and to make it Il journal adapted both TO the
busy man and to the leisure of the home cir
Gle, welcome visitor to intelligent and honest
citizens OF every political, religious and social
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 unSatisfying. Those
that cling to their ancient usages have lost
their hold on our fOryvarCi-rnOving peODle: they
are but shadows of their former greatness, and
they have but shadow of their former power.
Those papers have had their usefulness. but il
is gone; and. with it, they are going, too. 1t
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 they re-
quire more than news.
THE WEEKLY TINES gathers of the types of
every passing week whatever has lasting in
terest to the people at large, and sets it before
them in such generosity of paper and print as
would have ast0nished US all twenty yeOrs ago.
DAIIY-TwelYe cents q week. fifty cents a
month Sc a year, two cents copy.

In other words, the South is gaining on
the rest of the country. While the East
ern, Middle and Western states have
fallen off in their percentages, the South
has shown a very handsome growth. 1t
had only one-seventh of the trades of the
country three years ago; it has one-sixth
to-day.
In regard to the manufacturers, the
statistics of failures during the past three
years prove that the Southern factories
are doing better than those of any other
portion of the country. This has been
already demonstrated by their dividends;
as it is now by the few failures here.
While in Eastern states II per cent. of
these failures were of manufacturers, in
the middle states 10 per cent and on the
Pacific coast 80 per cent, only % per
cent. of the Southern failures, or forty
seven in all, were of manufacturers; and
for every failure there were ten to twelve
new factories established.

no one can such counsels come with
better effect. That the Independent
becomes simply tool in the hands
of our enemies is a fact patent to all
thinking men; as a democrat the
reformer may use his efforts to
good effect in the enforcement of
his views; as bolter he is simply a
republican - "this, and nothing
more"

The Maryland Legislature has I'M
der consideration a bill 'Eto prevent
extOrtions from persons in public
service, bribery and coection by
such persons andto make criminal po-
ltical assessments" etc. Purity in
politics is crying need of the day
and generation, but it is an article
that springs ouly to supply the de-
mand, and evades the call of law.
Once during the French revolution,
the assembly ordered chat the ar
mics of the republic be henceforth
victorious" and Guizot is of the
opinion that the law was really eff
cacious. But we are not so imagi-
native as the French people of that
heated time, and the lobbyists and
tricksters will probably find little
trouble in evading and putting at
naught a law designed to extinguish
them. Yet the very effort proves
that men are becoming alarmed at
a danger threatening to envelop our
whole country in its shadow.

OUR POLITICAL SALVATION.

The columns of The News have
contained some communications of
late which merit the careful consid-
Grafton of every voter in the state.
Throughout all Florida, the opera
ton of the present laws on taxation
have been found inefficient and I'M
just. Under low tax rate, and in
a time of unusual public and private
prosperity, bitter complaints have
arisen, and it is a patent fact that,
in particular cases, these are some
times grounded on justice and facts.
AS government is an institution
organized solely for the good of the
governed, we may draw some con-
illusions for our guidance in Iegisla-
tive halls and in constitutional con-
vention. The republicans could
have found no more forcible expo
nents of their position on this point
than Mr.. Lyle and Mr.. Hind. Their
acknowledged ability and pronounc-
ed party, standing give their utter
anees authority and their opinions
weight. And as the ballot box is
for the good of the people, and not
to put one party out or the other in,
these statements beforehand will
lay before the people the exact
grounds of controversy between the
two parties on subject of interest
to ALL
To those who. know the property
in question, glance at the record
will show the justice or falsity of
the charges SO boldly made, as to in
justice wrought in Particular in
stances. But it should be noted
carefully that even if the charge is
sustained, the proof of political par
TALLY as the cause, is yet to be
made. One republican or one
democrat may be taxed unreasona-
bly, high, and yet the injustice be
caused by no political bias of the
tax assessor or board of county com
missioners. Even at this stage, the
discussion shows plainly radical de-
feets in our present system of tax
alton, and the injustice done be-
tween county and state, and county
and citizen, must be remedied at the
earliest possible moment.
As these gentlemen speak the
voice of the republican party, so
does Mr.. Bishop uttor words of Sc
rious warning and friendly encour-
agement to us. The Importance of
the situation cannot be magnifed,
and no one can speak with more au-
thority than Mr.. Bishop, and from

more.

Appropriations for the "Natlon's
wards" are about shut off, but some
public babies in the shape of "infant
INDUSTRIES are still clamorous for
pap. The New Orleans Picayune
demands protection now for the su-
gar planters, and the iron monopo-
lists are already in the halls of con-
gress pleading tender age as an
excuse for the working of any num-
Der of nursing bills.
When is this thing to be stopped?
IF man puts up business which
fails to pay, must the whole people
take care of himself and his enter
prise? We suppose the Standard Oil
company, is also young enough to
take whatever may be given that
overgrown cooperation. Even old
maids are not too old for that, and
if these arrangements are carried to
their logical conclusion, it would
pay the orange growers of Florida
to start rival infant industry some
where out west where lands are
cheap and labor plenty. We might
raise the price of oranges to a dollar
each and make milliOnaires of our
selves at small expense.
For an orange tree in Iowa,
must be shut in a glass house and
heated by furnaces. These will
make each orange raised cost
at least one dollar. Then let the
enterprising owner of the grove,
show congress that his enterprise
cannot possibly pay, and lay tariff
on the exchange of oranges sufficient
to make rich the grower and his
family and we shall have a fail
sample of the infant industries we
now cherish.
Let each tub stand on its own bot.
tom.

We must learn from the expert
ence of other states and make our
assessments by townships instead of
counties. We know by our own ex-
perience that one man cannot poss-
IDLY do the work required of him in
county as large as ours. We must
have a constitutional convention to
deal adequately with such questions,
for Florida can sit no longer in
swaddling clothes and yean for the
idols that befooIed it's past babyhood.
We have new objects, new aspira
tions and new necessities. The taxes
are now troubling the nerves of
many, and the irritation caused by
the unjust payment of one dollar,
makes it bad business. But the con-
stitution must be changed to give us
a different mode of assessment.
Give us new constitution.

Manufactures i'm the South.

Times-D Democrat.
A gentleman of Atlanta has just pub
ished some very interesting statistics
showing the progress and profit of South
ern manufactures, and the general i'm
provement in the South in the past three
years. The Times-Democrat proved, last
October, that this section had grown so
fast since 1880, that the census figures
were out of date, as far as it was con-
cerned, and did not give true picture of
its condition to-day. These new statis-
tics fully carry out this idea, and prove a
steady and solid progress.
Looking at the number of commercial
houses in the country, for instance, the
following result is obtained:
