Deafness Can't be Cured

It is too Bad, too Bad:

A late Issue of the New York Sun,
which has a very few readers in Florida
and great many in California, has
these uugenerous remarks To say about
US:
LAS a citrus country Florida IS officially and
practically taking back seat. a 5 u winter re-
sort, Florida is to-day playing second fiddle to
California. AS a place of summer residence
that State will always be Il failure The people
of the United States are to-day looking to Cali
fornia the great fruit State of the Union, from
which to draw their supplies OF fresh fruit, dried
fruit aud canned fruit. They are also looking to
California as the great winter reSort--pGsSessing
the finest climate III the world
Coming from some other paper than
the Sun this might make us fe el sad, but
the sun moves in an uncertain orbit and
its predictions always come to pass in the
opposite direction. Florida just now is n
her happiest mood. Her orange groves
are richer and healthier than they have
been since 1876, aud give promise of
more abundant harvest and retain their
high reputation for richness of color,
thinness of peel and sweetness of flavor.
We have been enjoying strawberry
season of six months and feasting on
peaches since the middle of May.
Watermellons have been with us since
the first of June and will abide with us
for some time to come. The Kelsey
Japan plum and Japan persimmon trees
are laden with 4 full crop, and no month
in the year iiDds Florida without some
variety of fruit; There is something
phenomenal in the quantity, quality
and variety OF its fruit. No other state
in the Union can approach 1t. In q few
years its vineyards are destined to be
the wonder of the world. Its climate is
surprise and delight to strangers and
source of neyer-failing all-the year
comfort to the natives. The last winter
season was the finest We udve ever en-
joyed. The hotels we've all full aod a
rainbow of contentmeut spanned the
State in all directions.
The Sun can make some people be-
iieve that it is sound in the faith of pure
Democracy, while it is all the time iIgt-
ing with Butler, scolding Cleveland and
praising protection" but it can't make
Floridiaus feel bad and disbeieve the
evidences of their own senses. The
orange growers Of Florida will not up
root their trees at the dictum of the
Sun, nor will Flagler nor Plant tear
down their hotels. When Dana's pre-
dictions are fulfilled the sun will go into
a total eclipse and the world stand still.
Florida is very well, we thank you.

The National Editorial Association
This distinguished body of men Will


meet at st. Paul, Mimi, July II to Il.
The efficient secretary of the Associa-

has issued pamphlet which has been
mailed to all delegates and which con
tains the program Of exercises and
ARRANGEMENTS for transportation. Full
information is given and if any delegate
gets left by neglect or failure to follow
the instructions he must not blame the

thorough aud exploit in every detail
and has covered the whole ground He
says Follow Instructions select your
route; send for tickets get aboard the
train and meet me at st. Paul, TUESDAY
July l4th, 1891"
In furnishing transportation the rail-
roads have been liberal and considerable
and the following sentiment in a letter
from Mr.. T.. Q. Mccormick, the general
passenger agent of the c., Ii. & D. show
how they stand in" with the press.
Mr.. Mccormick says: You can tell
the delegates that we will take them on
Il specia train, or they can 90 on our
regular trains We have the best rail-
road on earth and owe all our success to
the newspapers"
Indeed, the railroads DO owe much of
their success to the newspapers. and the
people owe much to both. The two,
whether working together or separately
are the great promoters of civilization.
Arrangements have been made for
excursions to Yellowstone Park, Duluth.
and the Pacific coast. The excursion 10
Duluth will consume two days to Vel
lowstone Park ten days, and to the
Pacific coast a month or six weeks.
The meeting will be largely attended.

sessions, first in one state and then in
another, we will become better acquain'

There are many reasons just now why
gold should be demanded in the money
centers of Europe. While the Mckin-
ley law was pending many importers
loaded up with foreign goods, expecting
to reap great harvest These bills are
now due. The embarrassment of the
great banking house of Barring Brothers
caused millions of American securities
to be sent home for redemption. The
Emperor Of Russia threatening to recall
his reserve from English and German
banks has also caused tlutter. Allthese,
combined with the impecunius king
doms, makes the demand for gold. ana
America has it to spare. But the fact
remains that the milliops of bushels Of
grain, end the cattle upon thousand
hills, and cotton, and wealth Of our
farms and work shops will turn it all
back in due time.

Our Burford.

The BANNER is very proud Of the DIS
tinctjon gained hy our own fellow ct.
zen, Mr.. Robert A. Burford, in the last
Legislature. Among the Call men on
the ore hand, and the aati-CAli men on
the other, his abilities were recognized
and fully appreciated and his honesty
of purpose was always above suspicion
Ee was opposed to the reelection of
Senator Call, but his opposition did not
make ldm a blind and litter partisan.
1t WAS known among his intimate
friends that he intended to vote against
Senator Call in the caucus until the last
moment, and if Senator Call held his
strength until that time, rather than adj
iourn without making a nomination, he
would vote for him, and others would
have followed his example. Had the
Cali men known this they wOuld not
have acted as they did, but acting as
they did, is positive proof that they had
no intimation Of il and that Mr.. Burford
acted in entire good faith in his opposi-
ton.
He was the author Of the usury bill,
which is now law and the redemp
ton bill, which, by his eloquence and
persistence, passed both houses by Il
splendid majority. but failed to meet the
approval of the Executive, aud 50 was
killed by his veto.
Championing these measures despite
the protests of all the moneyed men in
the State, showed that Burfords heart
is located in the right place and that
lis every beat is in sympathy with
the common people. Tempted per.
haps, as no other man was tempted in
that legislature, he showed himself a
man in the highest and noblest concep-
ton of that term.
As one who knows him, and in be-
half of the people he represents, We
take great pride in saying to that por
ton of the press Of the State that have
singled MIN out as one worthy OF adul2
ton, that their encomiums are not mis-
placed that Robert A. Burford will
never betray public trust will never
sti1e conscience; that his sympathies
will always be enlisted on the side of
the people; his course will be straight
as an arrow and as true to principle as
the needle TO the pole.
