EOT4TION IN OFFICE.

i While the Republican candidate for
congress in the Sixth district is, ia every
respect, worthy of the cordial support of
his party, we regret that the policy OF
rotation in office prevailed instead of the
wiser policy of retaining a faithful and
able representative who has the important
qualifications of experience and familiar
ity with the duties of congressman
MilaoGukee Sentinel.
The Sentinel's sound words will fifty
apply to the choice of a congressman in
the First district. In Mr.. Caswell ga
faithful and able representative who has
the important qualifications of experience
and familiarity with the duties of con-
gressma an" can be secured to the district
through his denomination. It is well
understood that the interests of the First
district will be closely watched and are
perfectly secure in Mr.. Caswell's hands,
and it is wise policy to exchange Ger
tainty for an uncertainty. We believe
that when the Republican convention
comes together the conclusion will be
wisely reached that it is not, and by gen
eral consent Mr.. Caswe!l chosen to again
represent the district in the balls oil
congress.

The Tax Sales.

There is great dissatisfaction
about the tax sales in Nolusia ceun.
~. II is published in a new paper
at the extreme north ives, corner Of
the county, and which has small
circulation although LISA very good
paper it Is little known. People are
advertised rs owing taxes on land
they sold years ago, and then left
the State. The purchasers have
been paying the taxes gularly since;
If, therefore. the land is sold for tax
es q cloud is thrown on their title,
to say the least. Otherp people com.
plain that they have had to pay the
dollar for Advertising before their
property was advertised and their
name has not appeared on the list.
The description of The property adj
ver,iscd tor taxes Is, also, so faulty
tina, We doubt il any one vii bid
fot 4, when i. il offered for sale.
The law of assessing and collecting
taxes in this State is an,iqua,ed and
absurd. The officers may be ever
SO clever they will find it impossible
TO perform their duties IN a correct
manner. The assessor, especially,
should BE- paid by the year, and KEEP,
constantly on the move, 30 as to be
come personally acquainted with all
the changes that take place. There
is a great deal Of difficulty at pres
ent attending the assessment of tax
es. as one man may own 100 acres
Of land now and it may be owned
by other people before the end Of
the year. In former days when cit
liens held large freeholls, which
seldom changed hands, it was easy
enough, but small lots are now the
rule, and some of them may chang,
owners every year. The tax lis,
should be- revised at the county
clerks office as deeds are brought in
for record. The defects in the law
are so many and so glaring that the
people are much dissatisfied, and
throw the blame upon the State gov
ernment.-Florida Agriculturist.

There are some occupations where
eight hours will constitute days work.
The movement now on foot 10 limit all
mechanical occupations to eight hours
will fail. as II ought to. Ten hours Is
none too much time for days work in
mos, employments. But where a me-
chanic can earn full wages ut less time
he wants no law TO define his days time
it will adjust itself. In most Of the
larger cities, for instance, printers on
morning papers do not, as u general
thing, work to exceed eight hours, but
they are skilled men and earn in that
time more money than professional men,
generally speaking, who work twice that
length Of tmc each day. A days time
will adjust itself If left to natural laws
and regulations.
