The busiest place in town that we
have visited lately is Colby's photo
studio. Besides himself, he has two
firstclass assistants, and all hands were
rushing, trying to fill the accumulated
orders for the different styles Of work
done there. Mr.. Colby says his re-
TOUGHER, Mr.. Ware, is the finest he
ever had, and is the best in this state,
while Mr.. Hand is too well known as
a superior workman to need any praise
from US. They are both firstclass op-
orators, SO when ever Mr.. Colby is abb
absent the work goes on and his pat
rons are assured of the best work pos
sible, and that no finer work can be
had any where, and his polite attend
ants will be ever ready to serve the
public.

To the Editor Of the Banner.

To the Editor of the Banner
Having read with much care Mr..
Irvine's letter In the Banner of last
week, am now fully convinced that
the executive committee of Marion
county went beyond its jurisdiction in
calling a convention to nominate
state senator. nr. Irvine plainly says
In his letter that no executive commit
tee has right to determine such a
measure, unless specially empowered
by the convention creating it. This
committee was created four years ago
and clothed with ho such power.
Where could it, since that time, de-
rive such authority. When the con-
vention assemblies on the 14th of Au-
gust, believe it will be wioa to call a
primary election. Conventions are
not satisfactory to the masses, and we
cannot afford to widen the breach of
discord to-day existing within the
democratic party. Let Marion and
Sumter, the two banner counties of
Florida, send their delegates instructed
for primaries. For HARMONY.

Two Lives Saved.

Mrs. Phoebe Thomas, of Junction
City, ILL.,, was told by her doctors she
had consumption and that there was
no hope for her, but two bottles Dr.
Kings New Discovery completely
cured her and she says il saved her
life. Mr. Thos. Eggers, l39 Florida
ST., San Francisco, suffered from a
dreadful cold, approaching cOnsump-
ton, tried without result everything
else then bought one bottle of DR..
Kings New Discovery and IN two
weeks was cured. He is naturally
thankful. 1t is such results, of which
these are samples, that prove the wOn-
derful efficacy of this medicine in
coughs and colds. Free trial bottles

The 0cala Debating Society.

The meeting of the Ocala Literary
and Debating Society last Friday
night was decided success and the
members of the same have just cause
to feel proud of those who acquitted
themselves in debate and oratory, and
feel very gratified at the attendance of
so many Of the fair sex who graced
the hall by their presence.
The arguments of both sides in the
debate were excellent and the judges
hid some little difficulty in coming
to a conclusion, but finally awarded
the palm Of victory TO the affirmative,
who certainly had the strongest side
of the debate, the subject being as
follows: Resolved, That the present
political situation indicates the forma-
ton Of a new and controlling political
par'y.n Vt. Hoag and Mr. Wright
made some telling hits for their re-
spcetive sides. For the former gentle
man We predict prosperous career,
and viii say we havasno doubt could
the voters of old Marion have heard
the eloqucnce of the latter there would
have remained no doubt in their
minds as to his competency 10 serve
them in the lower house of the Iegis-
lature.
The GRAFTON by Mr.. j. Imboden Fin
ney was well delivered aud evinced
thorough knowledge of the subject:
Tendency of the Federal government
toward Capitalization. To the agree
able surprise Of all, two young ladies,
Misses Wells and Livingston, lent
their aid and as usual with the ladies,
carried off the honors of the evening.

Although it was in mid summer when

Mitchell TWO years before in the fall
of the year when everybody was sup
posed TO have been at home and the
voters stimulated by an exciting Pres
