Mr.. PasCO Speaks.

Our Junior United States Senator, Hon
Samuel Pasco, on September 9TH, made a
speech on the Political Condition of the
Southern States" What drew him out
on this subject, one with which he is per-
fectly familiar, was the consideration by
the Senate Of the resolution submitted by
VIM. f. Chandler "a man familiar with
Republican methods of carrying elections
in the South), in reference to the late
election in Louisiana.
The length of Mr.. Pasco's admirable
speech covering forty book pages-is
all that prevents its publication in the
FLoRrDIAN. 1t is a strong presentation
Of facts and figures, forcibly supported
by able argument from our Senator.
The speech is an excellent political docu-
ment, and every politician should secure
a copy for reference and future use-in-
deed, the National Committee would do
well to adopt it as campaign document
The general circulation of Mr.. Pasco's
speech would benefit the cause of De
mocracy in many States.

How HHillsbOrOugh Has PrOfited I'm.
der Democratic Rule.

The latest valuation of property in
EIillsborough county is $3,55O,OoO. On
this valuation, with the present mill rate
the people of that county would be as
sessed $l4, 10000 for State taxes. This is
under Democratic rule. But suppose the
Republicans were in power, with their
l21 mills rate-on this same valuation the
people of Hillsborough would have to pay
$44,375.OO for State taxes, making a diff.
ference of S3O,l75.OO in favor of honest
Democratic government.
But lets's look into this matter of facts
and figures little further, and see how
the record stands for the last three years
During this period, under Democratic
economical methods, the people of Hills.
borough have paid $34, 5s4.34 State taxes,
making the saving to them, when COM
pared with the extravagant rate of taxa
ton imposed by the Republicans, $780,
O37.28. The taxpayers of Hillsbor-
ough county would do well to bear these
facts in mind, and when they 60 to the
polls, vote for low taxes and good govern
ment-vote the straight Democratic

Cameron likes Not HEa rrisOn

From the Philadelphia Times.)
Senator Cameron makes n, conceaiment of
his hearty contempt for the Republican STAN
dard-bearer. Recently he had Senators Allison
and Hale TO accompany him to his home for a
visit OF a few days. In the parlor car of the
railroad train was wel-known Indiana law.
yer and Democrat, whose ability and whose
promilenc in his State are attesed by the fact
that he has twice represented a Republican
district in Congress. He was not acquainted
with Allison and Hale but knowing Cameron
well accOsted him and was introduced to his dis
tlnguished companions.
When the four were seated the senior Penn
sylvanla Senator said, and not in a whisper
well, do you people lntend to let that creature
Harrison carry Indana?'
The Indiana statesman was rather surprised,
but said: 81 think not l am of the opinion
that Indiana is safe for Cleveland"
"Wel," said Senator Cameron, earnestly,
you must watch our people closely. for hey
intend to repeat the 1890 tactics upon you. But
for heavens sake If only as an act of charity,
don't let that creature Harrison be sent to the
White House."
Charity? What do you mean?" asked the
Indanian, wonderingly.

And Allison and Hale also sat by, smiled and

The Southern Question.

Warner Miller's feeble Tapping of the
bloody shirt receives faint Endorsement
from Mr.. Depew, who says that we 1.-THE
Republican party must protect him the
negro in the exercise of the suffrage and
purify the count"
Senator Sherman is an older and amore
experienced statesman than Mr.: Depew,
and he deprecated, in his Worldinterview
the other day, the attempted revival of
the Southern race question, and wisely
said that "the Southern States must solve
the problem for themselves"
The country remembers, as Mr.. Depew
seems not to do, that during the last eight
years in which the Republican party held
power at Washington it neither did nor
attempted anything to "protect the
negro, and that Republican Supreme
Court nullifed the Civil Rights law.
The talk of "purifying the count" is
CHASTITY satire. The last effort of the Re
publican party in this line when it sent
its Visiting Statesman to the South in
1876 to buy and bulldoze the rascally Re-
turning Boards which "counted in "

What Jefferson County hns Gained
Under Democratic Rule.

For the past three years Jefferson coun-
ty has paid State taxes as follows: For
1885, Sc, 429.5l; for 1886, $6,735.41; for
1887, 6,145. 40-making total of &c.,
1902 for three years under honest Dem
ocratic government.
For the last three years of Republican
rule the rate of taxation for State pur
poses was l24 mills for each year. When
we apply this rate to the valuation of
property in Jefferson county for the past
three years, we find that under Radical
rule, for this period, at their rate Of taxa
ton, the people of Jefferson county would
have paid the enormous sum of $65, 099.l2
in State taxes, making the difference in
favor Of honest government, economi-
cally administered by Democrats, 49,
1880.
This is one reason why Jefferson county
is Democratic, and will continue to be
Democratic. White and colored citizens
are equally interested in the question OF
taxation, and, of course, prefer low taxes
under honest Democratic rnle to exorbi-
tant taxes and extravagant and corrupt
Republican administration. We look for
an increased Democratic majority in Old
Jefferson this year.

The Democrats would like to take the
tax off Of the pail and insure the labor er

on his pail in favor Of tin trust, and
make the necessaries of life so dear that
there will be nothing in it for dinner ex-

BY all means let us have a dinner pail

Two armies are drawn up in line of
battle. One has 100 men all told-the
other 5000. The weaker army hopes to
win by superior tact and generalship.
The first movement is made by
this same army-when number
of high privates-(having before
learned that promotion was promised all
who would join the larger army)-went
over to the opposing army and accepted
positions as standard bearers. They
claim they are not doing this for the
honor 0) or prospective emoluments, nor
with any desire to aid the enemy, but for
the benefit of and entirely in the inter
est ofthe ,ceaker army (their real friends).
This passeth understanding. When SOL
diers go from one army to another,
and that army with a fighting force three
times rs large as the one they left, and
claim they are doing this in the interest
of the weaker force, they may be deceiv-
ing somebedy-perhaps themselves
they can't fool their friends with SUCH
silly subterfuge. You can't desert your
friends, join the enemy-and, from their
line of battle, take deliberate aim at and
shoot into the ranks of your friends, and
thereby benefit them. The soldier who
stands in the ranks Of the enemy, and
shoots at his friends, don't do so with
any hope of benefting said friends.
Neither is that proper way in which to
manifest an interest in the welfare of
friends. When the battle RACES fercest
the true soldier is found in line with his
friends, where they can feel the touch of
elbow to the right and left, and loading
and firing at the enemy. Get in line with
your friends-remain with them-then
no one will be deceived.

The Mills Bill I'm Rrier

Many inquiries are made as to the VA
III which the average rate of duty and
the average reduction of duty PROMISED
by the Mills bill, are estimated. Vo,b
ing can be substituted for an actuaI o~
animation of the chief provisions Of tbs
tariff; and any one who will take the
trouble to make such an examination viii
see how carefully the Mills bill has bean
framed, in almost all its points. TO securs
cheaper necessaries and cheaper raw ,n,
terlals, with extremely little disturbance
to existing industries. But, as few can
take the trouble to satisfy themselves ~
this, the brief rough statement that can
be made in word must serve on most
occasions. And it is enough to say that
the Mills bill makes the average rate Of
duty on dutiable goods 424 per cent. in
stead of AZ per cent, and that it places
raw wool, raw flax, hemp and jute, lun-
Der, salt, tin-plate, certain chemicals and
few other unimportant articles on the
free list. This gives as fair a statement
OF the proposed tariff reduction a. can be
made in few words.

a TELLING Contrast.

In 1875 there were 228,620 men, wo-
men and children in Florida. They
owned property valued at $3l ,696, 1877, on
which they were assessed for State taxes,
by the Republicans, $40S,6S4.7l, or more
than $l.7S3 for each person.
Besides levying this extravaganza tax
upon the people, the Radicals were in
creasing the State debt at the rate of
about $40, 900 year.
Ten years later-after nine years of
Democratic rule-in 1885, the population
of Florida was 1851, and they owned
property valued at $7O,667 ,45S, on which
they were assessed for State taxes, under
honest Democratic government, $277,77O
ga, or less than 81 cents for each man,
woman and child in the State-a saving
of about 81 cents to each person in
Florida.
The Democrats, while levying less than
half the tax imposed by the Radicals,
were rapidly paying off the State debt.
Will the Republicans "pont with
pride" to these facts and figures for a

contrasted with one year Of Democratic
