The Government has established a new
postofice at Bloomfield, near Yalaha,
Florida.
Sweet oranges have now almost en-
tirely disappeared in the Indian River
region.
Tomato growing is becoming quite a
business on the Indian river, and next
seasons shipments will be unprece-
dented.
A large saw mill firm from the north
ern part of the State are going to put in
a seventy horsepower mill at Spring
Garden as soon as the railroad is fin
ished.
Captain Pfster, of Key West, has
made a proposition in writing to con-
tribute 200 or 300 feet square on lots 18
or 10 for $4,000, to be taken in hotel
stock, as a site for tie hotel. Other
propositions have been made verbally.
A staunch and swift vessel, capable Of
making the run from Cedar Key to Clear
Water within six or seven hours, is con-
tracted to be built in readiness for the
fall trade. This boat is to be named the
Governor Stafford, will cost $37,,700, and
of this amount $12, 200 goes into the en-
gines.
Some time ago Ell Hutchinson, of
Gainesville, had his horse stolen. De
tectives were put on his track, who sue
ceeded in capturing Robert Bronson, a
white man, at Trenton, few days ago.
He was tried in Justice Court at that
place, and in default of $1,000 bail was
taken to Archer, to be brought
to the county Jail at Gainesville,
to await trial at the next term of court.
When the train reached Gainesville sta
ton, and its speed had somewhat slack
ened, the prisoner, although securely
handcuffed; jumped through the window
and escaped. He. was fired upon several
times, but none of the shots took effect.
Dynamiters in Key West.
KEY WEST, FLA, June 12.-Upon the
arrival of the Mallory line STEAMER, late
last nighl, from New York, FREDERICK
Gil MarerrO was arrested on a charge of
having explosives in his possession, upon
an affidavit of the United States District
Attorney. Since the quarantine season
the Mallory steamers have not come to
the wharf, but anchor at the quarantine
ground, and the passengers and freight
are brougt ashore in boats. Upon Mar
rerO's stepping into the boat he was ar
rested by the United Marshal under a
wal rant from United States Commits
sioner Locke, and lodged in jail. The
information in the case was probably re-
ceived from officials in New York.
Marrero is resident of Key West.
He went to n ew York q few weeks ago
and his mission was evidently known
through detectives. Upon searching his
baggage the detectives found fuse, demo
lating caps and books of instruction
upon the manufacture of dynamite.
Marrero was alraigned before Com
missioner Locke to-day, and held until
tomorrow at 10 o'clock under $4,000
bail. Marrero is a Cuban, and affected
not to speak English until the officials
commenced to search his baggage, when
he exclaimed: II did not know baggage
was searched here, coming from an
American port"
The vigilance of the officials has
doubtless caused the dynamiters to inn
port materials separately and manufac-
ture dynamite, etc, here.

The Palatka daily news. (Palatka, Fla.) 1884-1888, 1884-06-25

Dougherty is especially strong with
the men who are hard to bring out,
and the method Of managing the
canvass as outlined by him will be
new and effective. It is the farmers
and stockmen who give the demo
cratic majorities in the river coun-
ties, and with these Dougherty is a
declared favorite. His weakness lies
in his supposed inability to influence
the conservative republicans who
vote with us on state questions.
Mr.. Martin seems to be the unani-
nous choice of Marion, but he is less
known with us than either of his OPP
ponents. His wcll-known and ex-
cellent character as man and demo
crat, however, will give him strong
following in the convention.
The Palatka daily news. (Palatka, Fla.) 1884-1888, 1884-06-25

One of our citizens was at Wash
ington and participated in the grand
reception of Logan. He is now of
the opinion that the republican tick
ct is invincible, and that even Flor
ida must go to swell the Blaine re-
turns. Another has learned of Kel-
ly's dissatisfaction, and is in hopes
that Cleveland will be nominated so
that ms opponent may have a walk
over with only enough trouble to
bind the members of the o. o. p. in
closer bonds of union. Against these
two we place the opinion of a noble
orator from VOlusia who knows tt at
Cleveland can win the national elcc-
ton as easily as he did that of New
York, and who sees in the present
aspect of a airs only fair field n
which demo is may amuse them
elves by ( .ering laurels easily
yon. SO rru he views of intelli-
gent men whom political excitement
heats the brain to fever, and the
al for part furnishes fuel to the
1es. But IN Ill this the very
feeling prevails, and no more is
Inference of opinion a mark Of
moral obliquity. This is one of the
best signs of the times, and shows
that not even the bloody shirt would
avail to SOW discord or hate in the
hearts of honest men who are politi-
cal brothers. For this we are truly
grateful.

THE PRINCESS AND ANITA

We report from the Times Union
the finding of the inspectors in the
case which excited such angry feel
ing i'll some quarters. The language
wherever possible is almost identical
with that of the cOroner's jury at
the inquest. While the owner and
officers have the sympathy of our
community, juror is bound by his
oath to disregard such considerations
and make his verdict dependent
alone on the law and the evidence.
The course pursued by some parties
who decide without hearing the ev-
idence and give emphatic utterance
to their disapproval of court and
jury is subversi0n of all law and or
der. Public opinion must approve
of the proceedings or the effect of
the sentence on the public is entire
ly lost. The juries of Cincinnati
and Jacksonville are blamed for al
lowing sympathy to overbalance JUS
tice; the juries of Palatka are blam-
ed for doing what seems at least to
them only simple justice. In such
case it is well to give prominence to
the endorsement given by other
