such athing can be done, although
we are VOL rwsre Of the fact, that
n certain influence will be cxerted
TO mtagonjxe Judge Morgan's
aspirations tor this honor. And
we must be permit 20 observe
that such a movement comes with
bad grace from The souroe TO which
we alludc. Judge Morgan has ably
and faithfully served his country
in the field, in Legislative nails,
and on the bench, aJorning every
station he has been rahel on to oil,
and few can doubt that he is well
worthy and cmincntly Cited TO
occupy a seat in Congress. While

crat, II is well known that Judge
Morgan is popular with members
If all parties, and Il Is confidently
believed, he viii, If n0,. na,cd,

Judge cannot do so, We doubt II
anybody can. IL Judge Morgan

The Palatka daily news. (Palatka, Fla.) 1884-1888, 1884-04-04
St. Johns Hotel Gone.

On yesterday Mr.. F. H. Orvis, of the
Putnam House, bought the whole Of the
St Johns Hotel property for the snug
sum of 1900. Thus passes away one
of the old landmarks Of the town. Mr..
Orvis has proved himself the most sue
cessful hotel man in the South and is Of
himself enough to make q small town
rich. His two Florida hotels the Put
nam and the Windsor, have long stood
at the head of the profession and his new
purchase gives him the opportunity to
make an enterprise second to none in the
country. A whole square, beautifully
situated in the heart of our city, viii be
embraced in monster hotel, which, I'M
der his management, would not do dis
credit to New York. In nothing is the
future of Palatka better foreshown than
in the confident investments Of such bust
ness men Of Mr.. Orvis' The large amount
of capital and ability rapidly flowing into
Palatka should obliterate all misgivings
as to her immediate and abundant pros
perity.

CITY NOTES.
his perqu-slte.
Ubi mel, hi apis.

Mr.. Adams of the Journal has seen fit
to copy exactly from this paper sub
scription list signed by several gentlemen
offering to give the amounts opposite
their names to the fund for destitute and
disabled Confederate soldiers. Imme-
diately beneath this is an offer by the
Journal to receive all subscriptions and
forward the same to the proper source.
The public is informed that the Journal
has no connection with the subscription
list it has appropriated and that Mr..
Adams has never signed it. The docu-
ment is in our possession now and guilt
less of his name. If he has any authority
to receive subscriptions we hope he will
give it.
A twelve foot gator keeps guard over
| the treasurers of the family store at Cap
tain Reid's. His mouth is wide open and
he lies in solitary grandeur basking in
! the sun. He is stuffed with moss instead
of pigs and piccaninies, but his aspect is
very fierce, and the pegs in his jaws are
as sharp and long as erst were his teeth.
/ But the natives look fearlessly into his
staring eyes, and loving couples chat
kindly within the shadow of his mon
strous smile. 1t is only when an F. F. V,
who is unused to Florida curiosities,
catches the first sight of him, that he has
power to make the hair rise like the quilts
of the fretful porcupine and the shrill
yells burst from lips unused to such sharp
utterance.
The Gem City Hook and Ladder Com
pany met in the Court House last night
| at o'clock. In the absence of DR.. Don
nelly, Judge Harrison was elected tenn
porary chairman. There were present
| Messrs. Mann, Griffin, Husson, Jacobson,
| Meyer, Grooms Ireland and Kersting.

| firemen's parade on May LIST, and after
the transaction of considerable business
the following gentlemen were admitted
to membership: w. w. Estes, B. P. Cal
houn and j. R. Baldwin.
We go to Morrison's restaurant to get
fresh milk, but we will be more careful
in future. For on yesterday, as Mr.. Joe
Morrison was industriously intent on
supplying the wants of his guests, the
oil stove exploded and badly burned his
