scendent abilities, to reach the very

because a few United States troops
had been placed on guard to assist
the police in protecting what re-

Flor.da's Farmers Alliance.

The annual meeting of the Farmers Ali
ance of Florida takes place to-day at Mad
ison. The prospect is that the session will
last several dayJ The alliance of Florida
is strong and growing organization 1t
already exercises considerable influence in
matters in which farmers are interested,
and it promises to exercise a great deal
more in the near future. The chief thing
it has to guard against is the ambition of
those who will try to use it to further their
political and other schemes. The farmers,
however, are, as general thing, level
headed men, and they will take good care
that the alliance is not used for objects
other than those for which it was organ
lied
The agricultural interests Of Florida are
growing in Importance with marvellous
rapidity. The production of oranges and
other fruits will be double what it is now
within a very few years, and the culture of
tobacco is increasing so fast as to attract
very general notice. More attention is
being paid to early vegetables than ever
before, and the revenue which the farmers
of the State are deriving from them is sur
All things considered, the farmers and fruit
growers of Florida are in fair way of be-
coming more prosperous than those of any
other State, if they are not already so.
The farmers want good laws and the best
facilities that can be had for marketing
their crops. By facilities something more
than transportation accommodations is
meant. Honest and intelligent agents for
handling the crops at their destination are
needed, and an exchange in Florida would
be beneficial. No doubt these and other mat
ters will be discussed at the meeting which
begins to-day. BY organization the
farmers can certainly accomplish more to
forward their interests than by acting in
dependently When acting together they
can exert an influence which will tell in
their favor. BY acting Independently they
are very apt to get at cross purposes and
nullify each others efforts
