The Old aud Deadly Joke.

From tie LINN Union.
the medieval Jokes with their hoary obser-
Yations. who come with old ancestral
Jokes from buried generations, come
like ghostlike apparitiUns from an age
OF am traditions. with the legendary
halo OF antique associations.
And our wild erratic fancy follows on, and
pants and presses, through the ScandI-
navian ice fields and the German will
dernesses. startling with unwearled san
DIAL Goth, and Nlsigoth. and NandAl
chasiug down these hoary chestnuts
with their white and withercd tresses.
o these immemorial chestnuts of the fatal
tuEny column, that nave made the gen
eratons laChrymoSe, and sad and SOL

OF the old Nersemap, Slav apd Saxon,

And these ancient wltticisms in their Jour-

1t looks az if the5 MeXicans were inviting
urailzed American citizen at PioIras Negras.
fOlloWnG on the heels of the Cutting outrage
at RI Paso, should be sufficient TO make the
state Department at Washington take some
dehnlte and vigorous action. The Piedras
Ncgras affair offers an Opportuntv to the
Governor of Texas to make an issue with the
County Judge of Maverick county for an out
rageous act OF usurpation If American citi-
lans on the border of Mexico canpot be pro-
tected, the American government is more or

The State census OF Florida, taken last
year, has been complied and the popula-
ton was 33S, 4OS, against 900 493 in 1ssO-a
net gain of Gs,0l5, or about 20 per cent.
This is fine showing, when the charac-
ter Of the increase is considered, for the
immigration to that State has been almost
entirely composed Of good citizens of
other States, North and South. The white
population is 1871, 1s5 while the colored ia
147,22l. Only two white persons over 100
years OF age are reported, while there are
forty-two negroes over 100. two being Ito,
one TIC, and enc 100.

Strikes and Boycotting.

Newspapers as well as politicians have
been rather disposed to avoid discussing
the bearing OF the moral and municipal
laws on strikes and boycotting. Ofcourse
no one questions the right of men to quit
employment that is improbable or dis
tasteful to them when they violate no
contract by so doing. To require inyol-
untary labor OF men, either under the
color OF religion or Of law, would be
violation Of their natural rights, and place
them in a relation of slavery.
1t is conceded that those who abandon
their employment may as individuals use
reasonable influence to have others follow
their example, or 20 prevent others from
taking their places, and it seems that
there should be no difficulty in drawing
the line between proper influences and
compulsion either by threats OF Vio-
lence or of other direct or indirect injury
to persons sought to be Influenced. Re-
ligion in daily life is based on charity,
and conscientious regard tor the per-
sons, property and even the feelings Of
others. our liberty as citizens is
limited to the line where it threatens
to encroach on the liberty of our fellow
citizens. There is nothing more clearly
established in law than that strikers
cannot hinder other workmen from TAX
ing their vacated places. If they en-
deavor to do so by violence or threats
they are liable to prosecution or to be
placed under bonds to keep the peace.
50 far as boycottipg is concerned men
have a clear right to withdraw their pat
ronage from any person, business house or
corporation, and as individuals to advise
others to do the same thing. II is equally
as clearly established, however, that
threats used to influence others to join in
boycott are Illegal aud make those
using such threats amenable to the law

A Day Tor the Orphans.

A communication is published in our
local columns this morning which con-
tains proposition to which no doubt
there Will be prompt and hearty re.
Spouse from the people OF this charitable
city. 1t is that a sum be raised by sub
scription sufficient to give all the orphans
in our local Institutions a day at the sea-
shore.
What way is there in which charity
will do more good or be so thoroughly ap-
preciated? The orphans in the different
asylums need an outing. Throughout the
long summer, while other children are
enjoying whatever pleasures are to be
had from excursions and plcnics, and
from almost entire freedom from any sort
Of restraint, the orphans are pursuing
their routine life in their institutions.
While they are better Off than many chill
dren who have no home at all, or a home
from which love and comfort and every
thing else that makes home life pleasant
are absent, they nevertheless must have
intense longing Tor such joys as children
find AT the seashore or in the woods.
sayaunah's orphan asylums are a credit
to the city. They are carefully managed
and literally supported. If the orphans
are given u day at the seashore il will be
an unexpected pleasure, and, therefore,
all the more appreciated by them. The
cost Of the excursion will not be great.
There are very few who cannot spare some
thing for this charity. Those who cannot
give 50 can afford to give half that
amount, or one-titth Of 1t. Any sum,
however small, will be gladly received.
No one will miss what they give, and the
pleasure they will feel in giving to so
worthy an object will be greater than the
pleasure they can get in spending the
money IN any other way.

On Sunday the new schedule between
Jacksonville and Sanford went into effect,
by which the time between the two cities

Post Office Official Bulletin states that
there will hereafter be a regular tri-
