writer that about 20 per cent. Of all the
cattle in America are pure scrubs, with
no infusion whatever of good blood. A

The New England Homestead says
that present appearances Indicate that
the acreage of potatoes to be planted
this season will be much less than last.
This is, of course, owing To the low

ABUSE OF ANCIENT HISTORY.

Years ago the democrats of Flor
ida nominated Geo. f. Drew and
elected him. He made an excellent
governor, and under his leadership
and that of his party associates the
state took its first departure from
the slough of republican misrule and
corruption. This was done with the
full knowledge that Gov. Drew had
been a union man in Georgia during
the war. During the campaign a
"Purman pamphlet" was published
charging that in Drew's private
opinion the federal government
should have armed the slaves in the
south. That this was injurious to
his candidacy is shown by the fact
that he received fewer votes than
his associate Hon. Noble A. Hull.
but that democrats appreciated the
necessity of placing an honest man
in the executive chair is shown bv
the fact that he was elected against
a regular republican nominee. These
facts belong to the party record and
as such are still pertinent to political
discussion, but those who would
charge "bourbonism" in any odious
sense on the party who could elect
an honest man on his private record
as a bitter opponent, is foolish. Ell
Their the voters in our ranks did not
believe the accusation, or they were
willing to vote for such a man in
defiance of such a record. We sub

must be taken, and that neither can

man IS not now a candidate, and For

arraignment before the bar of pub

with charges specific enough to al

well as denial. For the conduct of
our governor and that of his cabinet
the party is responsible, and we are
ready to meet any charge of corrup-
ton or maladministration that is
accompanied by adequate particu
lars of time and place. The people
of Florida are too intelligent to be
biased in any direction by unsupport-

an incubus of debt, there having
been no proofs of official dishonesty
