and terribly cXcoriated Senator Call in lis recent
| issues. 1t has exposed his dirty methods to pan
| der 10 the worst elements oi The people with ne
| hope OF lc.clectiOn in 1891. During the entire
| sion or the late Legislature he was prancinS
| around like a Tick mule IN Il circus or spaV-
| med nightmare, playing the part o! very NIUE
Gemagogue, instead OF comparing himself with
| the dignity of a Senator. All! Call IS great
| man, a wonderful man, and when he throws his
| glA otic intellect into a suhjc something has
| got to come However, the Senator has made
sufficient sacrifices for the good of his country
| 1t would therefore be cruel to impose longer
| upon his good nature and patriotic ardor, and
after twelve years of arduOus service the people
feel that it is but just that he should take rest
in the cool shades of private llte-Pasco Demo
crat.
Nothing shows more strongly than this the
utter idiOcy of the position held by Senator Call,
and there can be doubt but that within
short time we will find this opinion backed by
action upon the part of the United States Sen
az. The editor of the FLORDIAN does not 90
too far when he asks: But what must be said
Of our Senator who, for three years has stood IN
the way of the State receiving her rights? Was
ever case known before of a Senator doing all
IN his power to deprive his own Safe of her jest
dues p Not only depriving the State of her
dues, but preventing her from placing solid set
tiers upon valuable land, and placing insur-
mountable obstacles in the way OF thousands OF
who would willingly take advantage OF the op-
20 tunies offered in tncsc lanis for profitable
investment -Palatka Meas.

Legislature passed Joint Resolution, instruct

our REPRESENTATIVES in Congress to cause an in

lands, and have patented to the STATE such as
have been selected. This Joint Resolution, 10.
%, it will be remembered, was vetoed by GOV
crnor Flemming, and caused good deal OF
hubbub at the time, and for this reason no doubt,
the FLOKIDI IN has very properly, rs we think,
entered into iUli ovCrhaung OF the subject,
and in dong 50, it does not put the brightest
