DR.. Joseph y. Porter, Florida's State
Health Officer, has written letter to
Washington saying that he would rather
resign than 90 to Jackson barracks.
Louisiana. The acting Secretary, how
ever, upon investigation, found that DR..
Porter's war record was too good to let
him throw away his half pay as pros
pective retired United States Army Sur
geon, and would not entertain the idea OF
DR.. Porter resigning The order COM
handing DR.. Porter to 90 to Louisiana
has been rescinded, and the doctor is said
to be happy, but does this settle the mat
ter: What are we going to do
about that clause in our State Consti.
tuition prohibiting the holding Of lucrative
office under the United States and State
both at one and the same time. or of
holding two official positions Of any kind
Are we 20 blink our eyes and let an un-
constitutional act go on just because we
want Dr. Porter to be our health officer?
Inc tLoRIDIAN wants to see DR.. Porter
retained in the State and continue in the
good work that he has begun just as much
SO as any, but Florida can not afford to
have as her health officer anyone who is
not free to devote his whole time to her
interests without fear of his other master
calling him to duty elsewhere
There is no course for DR.. Porter to
pursue other than an unqualified rcsigna-
ton either to the United States or to the
State Of Florida. Dr.. Porter is a splen.
did Health Officer and Florida does not
care to lose him. but, with the most
friendly spirit, and in justice to Florida,
We quote from the Fernandina Mirror
with prejudice toward none, we ask
Is it possible that Florida has but one
physician within her borders who is capa-
BILE of filling the position of State Health
Officer? To read some of our exchanges
one would infer that such is the case"

Bulletin No. 6 of the Experiment sta
ton at the State Agricultural College,
Lake City, has reached us, and while the
major portion of its contents is taken up
with work not really belonging to the
College, it is full of interest, having anal
Uses of water from various portions of the
State, valuable gypsum from the banks
of the Withlacoochee river and soils from
college make these analyses free of charge
for the people, and their work should be
appreciated. The station is doing valua-
BILE work, and DR.. DePass and his eff
cient assistants are determined that it
shall be success.

Bill Arp in the Atlanta Constitution
talks sensibly thus: "The solution Of
the negro problem is just this: When
they get too smart they will be removed.
and that in hurry. We had to remove
the Indians because we couldn't get along
with them. We will let the good ne.
groes stay and make the others go. See
if we don't. *** We will find land
enough to put the negroes on whenever
the North drives us to that necessity"

HAMPTON on THE SOUTH.

Senator Wade Hampton was inter-
viewed in Washington Wednesday and
talked freely of the efforts being made by
the Republican party to break the Solid
South by introducing economic questions,
and said positively that, in his opinion,
their efforts would fail. Gas long as To-
cal self government demands our atten-
tion," said the Senator, "our people can.
not be divided on this issue Whether
man is protectionist or tariff reformer, the
safety or welfare of his home is paramount
to the tariff" and the Senator is right.
Harrison has taken hold of the South
in the wrong way to break its solidity.
The very fact of his having appointed
corrupt and detested members of the old
carpet bag clan to Office in the South will
hold the South more firmly together than
anything else. There IS a way to break
the Solid South, but Harrison has not the
nerve to attempt it, or if he has the nerve
he has not the desire to deal with the
South in the kindly and just manner that
would do more to divide the vote than all
else.
Senator Hampton was asked if there
was a growing protective sentiment in
the South, and he promptly replied that
there was not. 81 think the tendency is
more apt to be the other way" said the
Senator, ESPECIALLY in the mining and
manufacturing districts - and he went on
to show wherein the interests of the
South would be advanced by low du-
ties The South can produce iron and
coal much cheaper than the East,
and protection acts as a bar to the
South coming into close competi-
ton with the trust and tariff protected
millionaire corporations, and Senator
Hampton is satisfied that our people will
not be deceived and led into the belief
that protection would tend to advance the
development of our industries. He saws:
Without protection the rivalry would be
greatly lessened. The less protection the
more capital will go to the development
OF the industries of the South Seeing
this, do not think our people will be led
off by this question"
Senator Hampton's words are full Of
solid truth, and the Republican party will
find that the Solid South cannot be broken
by false statements that we need protec-
ton to advance our interests; neither
can it be broken by subjecting us to in
suit by placing corrupt carpet baggers in
Office in our midst.

made out, and the jury were out but
short time. Verdict, not guilty.
Capt. J. A. Kelly represented Don
ely.
Esom York and Ellen York were
indicted for criminal neglect of q sick
child. Capt. Kelly defended Esom
and Mr.. Chandler defended the wo-
man, having been separately retained
by friends of the parties. After a
tedious trial, with some developments
of q revolving nature, the jury re-
turned a verdict of not guilty as to
both defendants.
There are several criminal cases yet
to try, and this business will probably
occupy the court to-day and to-mor-
row. The jury panel will probably
be challenged to-day upon legal
technicality. This is the most impor-
tant term of court held here fol
years, and some of the cases have
drawn witnesses from Virginia on the
north and from Georgia on the south.
Several important civil cases will prob
ably come on this week.
Visiting lawyers the past week were
Col. Richard Dozier, of Georgetown;
Col. B. Presley Barron and Mr.. Jos
F. Rhame, OF Manning; and Mr.. H
j. Haynsworth, of Greenville.

"Y-e--s; but the law allowed me

one of the States where they have the
homestead law. South Carolina, prob
ably?"
"Yes," said the man.
"My friend, said st. Peter. Il am
sorry for you, but you will have to sc
below. The .onestead law is not in
force in heaven; but the principle pre-.
walls, and it is an Interchangeable law
that nothing can excuse man from
paying his honest debts, except abso'
Lutte poverty, and then he must have
