cant well help writing this letter, as
feel that it will do a great deal OF good if
it calls out the response or discussion
which hope for. We have been most
unwise, to be sure-so much so that Puck
has quoted, "What fools ye m ortals be. :"
Look but few years back and see your
selves, or others, working themselves to
death, nearly, to keep down every green
thing excepting the orange tree, while
now. 10 we see the best trees above a
moderate amount of grass and weeds !;
these protect the land from the sun and
furnish vegetable matter aft they have
finished this mission. So the clean-cult-
ure mania has passed away and left us
wiser for having tried it. See what other
foolish ness we have been guilty of; look
how we used to sweat to make oranges,
and then to pack them in costly boxes,
wrap them in paper, and stencil, perhaps,
the name of some foppish rascal who
lived a his ease in some of the fine cities,

things of the land at the expense of bet
ter people by far-but more stupid, of
course. Yes, it is already the most appal-
lingly stupid picture imaginable -laugha-
BILE but for the those who
never did such things can have a side
splitting ha, ha, but | have nothing to
laugh at, for am out of pocket money
enough to buy mule, and | need the

must now hope to make the future pan
out something to the right man, and |
have great faith in the Florida Orange
Growers Union and the Fruit Exchange,
in cooperative and systematic-intelli-
gent-marketing. There is no trouble
about it if wecan compel careful hand
ling, rapid transit and cheap rates and
honest returns. But before leave this
subject please to remember that insist
that we rm our own trust, if trust it
can be called But this is no trust, it is
only an intelligent way of marketing our
fruit, and does not seek to increase the
price of oranges to the consumer, but
rather to save to us a larger
share of what our fruit now brings, and
protect us from the ravages of unscrupu-
lous thieves and greedy, heartIess, trans
portation companies, with their "Over-
charges;" it does not control any but
our own fruit; we have no corner"
Well; in order to realize all that we can
figure out and hope for we must go on
the market ourselves with our own fruit;
we must keep our business in our own
hands, or our interests viii be sa rificed.
If a trust is formed, it will be to make
money for the trustmen and not for us.
If there is chance for those fellows to
make several millions, it is also a chance:

The Los Angeles Poultry Association
opened it's first exhibition in Hazard's S
Pavilion yesterday, under most favor
able auspices. AS is usual, though, on
the first day of livestock gathering,
especially when it is preceded by Sun
day, the various exhibits were not thor
oughlv arranged until evening. Today,
however, everything will be running
smoothly, and a large attendance is pre-
dicted during the visiting hours, which
are from 10 q. m. to 10 p. m. The list OF
entries has already appeared in the HER

will appear in tomorrow's issue, it being
impossible to properly present them to-
day, as they were not all on hand when
the HERALD reporter visited the building

ago, petition signed by about fifty resi-

was presented to the Council for an

been done. AS there has been a num-

that time, we would like to know whether

The Southern white man may drive
his Colored brother from the polls or
miscount his vote or refuse to sit in a
church convention with him or DENY
him glass of whisky, but notwithstand-
ing all this the black man that there is a
future of bis own before him, that he is
working it out in blood and toll and suf-
fering, and that some day he will stand
clothed in his own mind and panoplied
in his own victory, and will value the
achievement all the more because it
Was wrought out through his own effort"
-Philadelphia Press.
These are noble words and pregnent
with truth. The future of the Colored
brother depends largely upon his own
course. He has many things to learn;
among which the most important are
to make money and when he spends it,
get the worth of it. He must learn not
to be tricked out of his money but to IN
vest more in land and less in frivolity.
Let him make it rule that no man
shall have his money without giving
HIM its value in food, clothing, real
estate or intelligence, and bis future will
soon arrive.

dacity and .temerity to 60 into ''The Peo-
ple's'' Photographic gallery at No. 80 E.
Seventh Street, then being operated by
Mr.. Weatherby, and proposed to buy
the place in so days if IN interest was
given him. The papers were drawn
and duly signed and Mr.. Henry Shep-
herd secured a full partnership in the
business. The place was in debt, but
within one month after Shepherd went
into the business all outstanding debts
were paid. Weatherby then wished to
rue his bargain, but Shepherd had a
Level head and he made him stick to it,
and, at the end of two months Shepherd
became sole proprietor. He worked
day and night and rapidly gained hold
on the public which is attested by the
fact that his receipts for the first years
business were &7,5s7.5O, and the stock
books at the Photographic supply house
show that "The Peoples" gallery uses
more material than any other gallery in
The city except one. There are eight
employees in the gallery, two OF whom
