By the death of our beloved and greatly es-
teemed fellow townsman, Captain T. j. Shine, q
vacancy has been caused in the Clerks Office Of
this county 1t was the wish of Capt. Shine,
upon his death bed, that his brother, Mr.. ID. 8.
Shine, should succeed him in this office, and
this wish the Sentinel would most gladly see
carried out The people of Orange county sig
nitied at the last convention and election in no
uncertain tone their desires and wishes that
Captain Shine should have the office for four
years from the time he was elected. The office
was virtually his for the term he was elected,
and we hope to see il continued as he wished.
Mr. ID. S. Shine is eminenily qualified for tho
place aside from the wishes of his brother, and
would make most excellent clerk. He is ca
pabe, polite, Obliging and has every character
islic necessary to fill the position with the
greatest satisfaction To the people. If the peO-
pie of Orange county could express their wishes
in the matter they would unquestionably do SO
in favor of d. s. Shine. If Gov. Fleming will
appoint him, the Democracy of Orange county
vii, he satisfied and our Republican friends
will say "well DONE"

The following is copy of letter sent to our
representative at Tallahassee:
Hon. John W. IrammeR Representative Of Potk
county, Tallahassee. Fla.:
DEAR SIR: In the Weekly FLoRIDIAN of
April 9th l note
l. That you are Chairman of the Standing
Committee on Education
g. Before the House: BY Mr.. Coulter Senate
Bill No. 6. an act "requring the science of
health to be taught in the public schools of the
State"
In view of the above, hasten to address to
you the recommendation that the Legislature at
this session also pass an act to the effect:
"An act requiring the science of political
economy to be taught in the public schools Of
the State" practically TO be accomplished very
easily bv applying the 4ih, 5th and OH readers
mainly to the subject OF this science; or, an act
requiring the science OF political economy to be
taught in all the higher schools under control oil
the State !" but believe the first proposition to
be the best, and incline to the opinion that Il
might be embodied in the Coulter Senate Bill
No g. making the teaching of the two sciences
obligatory or let it be accomplished by a sepa-
rate bill or act
In support of the above kindly permit me 70
submit the following to your attenIfOn:
The knowledge of political economy among
the people and large masses OF voters, would
simply mean the death blow to the protective
tarln SWlnule, anu Tue Vic'ofy anu Hlumpu VI
the Democratic platform, as against the false
rules and doctrines promulgated by the know
nothing party now in power again. to the great
detrment of the country. While l might add
further that nothing but universal insight in
and knowledge of political economy will grad
ually solve so many other perplexing questions
and problems now endangering the undsturbed
growth and prosperity of the United States.
Let now the State of Florida and its Banner
County take the lead in this all important ques-
ton OF enlightening the people, and other States
will soon follow in this course which alone can
save this country from further repetitons of last
N0vembers Calamity
All OF which is respectfully submitted by yours

Baking Powder vs.. Cream Of
TartAr

1t will not help the matter any, if, to avoid the
impurities and pOisons in the cheap baking pow.
ders, the hOusekceper returns To the use Oi cream
of tartar and soda. The cream of tartar Of the
present day, as found on sale at the grOcers, is
quite as impure as many OF the baking powders.
Tests made by the Massachusetts and New York
State Boards OF Health have developed the most
astonishing venaity on the part of cream of tar
tar manufacturers and vendors. Twenty seven
samples, claimed by dealers 10 be pure, were
analyZed. They were found 10 contain from
three to ninety three per cent. of alam lime, ETC.
Samples of soda analyzed showed the same ex-
tent of aIulleratOn. Not only is it unsafe to
use such leavening agents in bread, biscuit or
cake, because of their deadly effects upon the
SYSTEM but they cannot be relied upon TO pro-
duce light food. The result OF their use will
be heavy bread, yellow or bitter biscuit aud
cake.
Most of the baking powders and bread prepa
ratons Of the market are made from the very
cream of tartar above described, or from alum,
which is poison, or from phOsphatcs derived by
disgusting processes from the solution OF Old
bones in sulphurc acid, SO that their use and the
use of the adulterated and impure cream of tar
tar are attended with the same dangerous or
unsatisfactory results.
The only way to overcome all difficulties al
tendaEt upon the use OF lcavenng agent
would seem to be in the selection OF a. baking
pow wder OF thoroughly well established repua
effective power leavenlng agent have brcn
confirmed beyond contravenfIon. The Royal
Baking Powuer unqucstonao!y meets The mark.
Indeed, it has been found to be the only baking
powder upon the market that is lIee from lime,
alum and phospha'es, and chemically pure.
Prof Mott has explained the reason Tor this alb
solutc purity IL exists in the new methods OF
refining cream of tartar, owned and employed
exclusively bv the Royal Baking Powder Com
pany by which only can the chemically pure
article 6e produced. A portion OF Prot Molts
report is worthy ofreproducton in this connec-
ton
The Royal Baking Powder is absolutely
pure for have SO found 1t IN many tests made
both for them and the U. 5. Government. l Will
go still further and stale that because OF the
facilities that company have tor obtaining per-
ftctly pure cream of tartar and lor other reasons
depending upon The proper proportions OF the
same, and the method of lis preparation, the
Royal Baking Powder is undoubtedly the purest
and most reliable baking powder offered to the
public HENRY A. Mort. PHI. D., etc"

welcomed the Presidential party, but the

From this time on, dense darkness
covered thes and prevented the occu.

number of pine knot torches was flashed
into the car windows as the train dashed
by.
The run from Urbana to Columbus
was made at a speed of mile minute.
At Hilliard's, ten miles out of Colum-
bus. a row of big bonfres was passed.
In front of the blazing piles were a
hundred or more men, frantically wav-
ing their hands. Governor Foraker and
General Harrison were seated on sofa
in the rear of the Generals car during
the run from Urbana. Columbus was
reached at Sis p. M. Governor
Foraker and wife left the train
here. The demonstration at this
point assumed unusual proportions. At
least one fifth of the Capitals one nun-

vicinity of the depot when the train ar

several organizations came and pressed
in. The booming OF cannon and the din
of brass music, drum corps and yells
greeted the Presidential train as it
moved into the depot. 1t re-
quired large force of. policemen to
open the way for the engine. The train
pulled pretty we'll through the depot be-
fore stopping, and the people were trying
to keep up and rushed madly over each
other. A large number of ladies were in
the crowd, and many OF them were in
